Chapter 9: To open your heart to someone.
Zazu and Zarah pushed the demon through the portal. Zarah's portal led to another grassy area. It was a wide-open plain area, with waist- length grass and the weather was cool. Weirdly, it was somewhere in the spring season. It was nearly winter in Tokyo a few moments ago!
Zazu went in to have a piece of Sebarah first. Swinging his swords in an X-shaped manner, he kept the demon on the defensive. What surprised him was Sebarah was defending his attacks with his claws only! It gave the demon great speed and maneuverability, but low reaching length and power. He spun around and slashed diagonally with his right hand hard, and made the demon flew slightly backwards.
Zarah flew in and demanded attention from Sebarah.
It was Zarah's turn to charge as Zazu watched a few meters behind her. They couldn't fight together against Sebarah at the same time, because their weapons will do more harm towards each other compared to their enemy. Zazu's attacks consist of wide angles of swinging, and they would 'dance' around him in a 1.5-meter radius. If he was fighting with Zarah side by side, it will surely hit her.
Her attacks mainly consists of entire body movements and twirls as the wings behind her back would not move more beyond the normal flapping range. The most she could extend her wings was to cover her from any frontal attacks, but the sharp sides of her wings would point sideways. (If you couldn't imagine further about this, imagine how Lilith folds her wings in vampire hunters) While the opponent was distracted by the lethal swings from her wings, she would use her hands to give quick punches at the vulnerable points at her opponent.
Zazu was quick to realize something. Imagine the sight when a second- class demoness decides to fight against a senior first-class demon.
Sebarah's claws easily parried her wings. Reacting at lightning speed, Sebarah grabbed both of her hands, and closed his distance beyond the striking range of her wings. He pulled her hard to him, and smacked her body hard against his.
"Do you like it?" Sebarah chided her. "Have a feel of my muscular body."
Of course, Zarah couldn't reply.
Zarah choked as the air was knocked out from her. It was not very painful or very harmful to her, but it made her paralyzed a few seconds.
"And by the way, you should be glad while you still can feel it!"
And that time was more than enough for Sebarah to give Zarah two long bloody furrows on her abdomen. The claws did not only give external damage to her, but it tore through her breasts, her ribcage and punctured both of her lungs.
Zarah allowed the gravity to control her body downwards.
"Zarah!" Zazu screamed, as he was fixated at the blood gushing out from her chest, trailing her body in the air as she began her descend. He didn't remembered Zarah casting her regeneration spell before the battle started.
He rushed in attempt to cast the healing spell on her.
Of course, since when Sebarah will let him do that?
Zarah's body was falling, Zazu was trying to catch it, and Sebarah was in the middle of his path.
It was more than enough to make Zazu mad that he summoned out Angi- Dev and become a hybrid.
With better maneuverability than Sebarah because of Angi-Dev wings, he swooped past Sebarah and grabbed Zarah. And that was not before he gave a nice slash on Sebarah's arm. Sebarah howled as he was caught by pain and surprise.
"Zarah, don't you die on me yet. You mean a lot to me." Zazu said as he whispered to her before he lowered her to the ground. He didn't know whether she could hear him or not. Her blood made his torso red. Taking out a lot of energy from his body, he cast the most powerful healing spell he ever had on Zarah.
Her punctured lungs close, and the front of her body seemed to be normal again. Zarah open her eyes, to see Zazu hovering over her. He heaved a sigh of relief.
It was only for a few seconds through, as Sebarah rammed him aside.
"Thanks a lot, she is much more pleasurable when she is warm," Sebarah told Zazu pleasingly. "And I don't need waste energy healing her too."
"You die painfully from this," Zazu told Sebarah in a very angered state.
And so the battle between the two titans begins.
(Focus to the temple)
The three goddesses experienced a moment of shock when a huge demonic power was released near the temple. The power was awesome, and was terrifying to Skuld, the one with the least of powers among the three sisters. Belldandy herself was sweating from the sudden outburst of power.
Pain seared through their minds as lives were extinguished immediately. People are dying.
Keiichi tried to calm Belldandy down by hugging her. However, breaking from his grasp, "Keiichi, people are dying out there. I must help them." Belldandy looked straight into Keiichi's eyes, looking for his approval.
"Go then, you must do what you must. Please be careful," Keiichi was certainly worried about his goddess.
"I will. Take care of the house," she replied.
Belldandy, Urd and Skuld flew towards the source of the demonic energy.
(At the Demonic Mischief Office)
Mara felt anger that was emitting from Zarah. This was not a normal one, as the feeling was much more intense. Zazu had certainly pissed her sister off big time. He is definitely going to feel pain from Zarah's outburst.
She chuckled and continued her work.
A few moments later...
A moment of passing death passed through Mara. She gasped and choked for breath as the feeling of life was washed out from her very core being. Her sister was dying.
In a dizzied state, she hopped into a CD, finding the nearest portal to her sister.
(Focus to the three goddesses)
The sight made Belldandy cringe in horror. Flattened corpses were skewered on a straight path originating from a detached Ferris wheel. How could a demon do this? It basically breaches the very core rules of divine beings of Yagdrassil and Vanagdrassil. No meddling in human lives unless he or she is destined for. This is a cold-blooded slaughter from a demonic being.
She sensed Zarah's, Zazu's and a strong demonic presence in the vicinity earlier, but now they couldn't be detected anymore. Somehow they have teleported to another place.
The Ferris wheel laid sideways on the ground, where humans could be seen crying or shocked in terror.
It would take a lot of work to fix the situation. They have to make people forget that divine beings were in the area.
Firstly, they have to seal off the area by blocking all the communication lines entering and exiting the area. After that, they have to form a huge bubble of energy, and block all the people's minds that had witnessed the incident. Finally, they have to find each and every single human being that had seen Zazu, Zarah and the demon and erase their memories off completely. Finally, they have to make a suitable story and infuse that memory into their minds.
The reaper was seen leaving the area. Normal goddesses such as Belldandy and her sisters cannot resurrect the dead humans. Only Kami-sama and Hild can.
Urd definitely will be responsible in altering their minds. Only she could be calm enough to create a suitable 'death' scene to be infused into the minds of people who had witnessed the incident.
Being the first to recover, Urd barked, "Skuld, start jamming very single communication link and trace all of them to their sources outside the area. Belldandy, form a mind bubble around the area. I will find every single being that witnessed the incident."
Somehow, Urd prayed to Kami-sama, hoping that Zazu was save.
They began their immense work of removing any demonic presence in the area.
(Focus to the battle)
Dark distortions were seen flowing through the air as Zazu slashed his sword with anger towards Sebarah. Angi-Dev had his wings fully materialized behind Zazu, so basically the two demons were seen cutting through the air at quick speeds.
Zazu was a little slow in the beginning of the battle with Sebarah, and suffered a wound on his right arm. However, anger overcame pain, and Zazu ignored it completely. Realizing his mistake, he cast his speed spell, and charged at him again.
Coupled with the lack of energy when he transferred a lot of energy into Zarah, he was tired. He didn't have time to heal his open wounds.
Zarah was looking at the battle from the ground, laying flat on her back. Her body hurt so much. She would even feel better if she had visited a private session to the torture pits in Vanagdrassil.
Thunderclaps were heard in the air hundred of slashes were exchanged in a matter of seconds between Zazu and Sebarah.
However, Zarah can see clearly that the demon have a slight advantage of stamina over Zazu in the battle. Zazu's moves were slowing down and becoming less offensive. Sooner or later, he will surely turn to defensive mode, and the odds will pile against him.
A few minutes later, Zarah was right. Zazu had changed the grip of his swords into dagger style and begin fighting defensively. He won't last much longer.
She sensed that Mara was approaching fast to her. She hoped that her elder sister was quick enough to arrive and help Zazu. Mara definitely couldn't fight the demon alone by herself, but if Zazu and Mara combined their skills to attack that demon, they might have a chance to win.
(Focus to Mara)
Mara arrived to the scene watching Zazu and a demon exchanging slashes in the air.
"Sister, what happened?" Mara went over to her smaller sister and cast a regeneration spell over her.
"A demon attacked me and Zazu when we were dating. The demon nearly killed me, but Zazu transferred a lot of his energy over to me to cure my wounds. He is losing the battle. Go and help him," her sister replied.
Mara will surely taunt her sister if the given circumstances were right. However that pleasure was not available here. She quickly rushed in to aid Zazu in the battle.
It was just a few seconds to late.
Zazu's defenses buckled. He unsuccessfully parried Sebarah's right claw, it raked a few inches into his left arm, and tore off the top muscle there. Removing his left sword from the battle, (he couldn't hold it anymore) he defended the next volley of Sebarah's slashes with one hand only.
It was weird through. Someone should be visiting any moment now.
Sebarah noticed the new demoness that was approaching him fast. Realizing the threat, he decided to quickly finish Zazu off.
Mara watched as Zazu lost the maneuverability of his left hand. Desperately fighting for survival, Zazu was 'single-handedly' defending himself from the demon. Soon, the demon found a weak spot among the angle of his defensive slashes and exploited it completely.
The first slash from the demons claws knocked Zazu's sword away. It disappeared into thin air as Zazu unsummoned it.
The second slash was across his chest and made a gaping wound one foot diagonally long there.
The third slash hit his face, removed his right eye and partially blinded him.
The forth slash was at his chest again.
The fifth slash was aimed at snapping the arteries at his throat.
Zazu saw the final claw coming at him with his remaining eye. The final sight was slow, as if death wanted to play games at him before he died.
He smiled at the claw. People say you must die happily anyway. He tried his best to protect the person he liked. Although he failed in the end, he was happy that he was brave enough to attempt rescuing someone instead of running away to hide in a corner.
The claw came within reach of a few inches of his throat.
"Take care, Zarah," he gave a final taught cast to Zarah.
Oddly enough, someone still hasn't arrived at the scene yet.
And the claws missed, as Sebarah was head butted aside by Mara. Before he could do anything further, he found himself encased in a containment bubble.
Sebarah was glad that he learned the containment spell to hold off weaker enemies. The spell would not be strong enough to hold that demon-god- mortal, but he was weakened enough that he would probably unable to break his bubble.
That leaves one more demoness to go before its pleasure time. And he was damned lucky that it was the second demoness he was looking for. He thanked Hild for the 'blessing' she gave to him. If Zarah wasn't on earth, he couldn't touch any of them at all. They would be too close to each other that he couldn't fight them on a one at a time basis. Furthermore, other demons might take advantage of his scheme.
Mara was keeping her distance, as she has no combat experience to begin with. She pelted the demon with fireballs, but watched in terror as the demon brushed them aside as it were raindrops falling on him. He closed the distance quickly, even though she was flying backwards while shooting fireballs at him.
It was not long before she found a hand slapping her face hard. Hard enough that Mara plummeted to the ground and made a small crater there.
(Focus to Zarah)
Zarah felt a pang as Zazu's reached her through his mind. That hybrid still taught of her when he was dying! What the hell? Did she mean that much to him? Does the meaning of death was not as important as her?
Again, Zazu stupidly attempted to rescue her and asked for death again.
"Why Zazu?" she replied his call. No answer came.
Her sister was in time to stop the deathblow approaching Zazu. Her heart froze at the scene. She was glad that he was alive.
However, the feeling of gladness quickly turned to a feeling of dread as she watched her sister fall like a meteor towards the ground.
Zarah still sensed her sister was breathing. The slap was not hard enough to break her sister's neck. However, Mara remained unconscious on the ground, limp as if she was a rag doll.
That leaves one laughing demon in the air admiring the work he has done on all three beings that couldn't move there.
Zarah began to squirm in terror as the demon approached her.
(At Hild's chambers)
"Sigh, why is it taking so long?" Hild grunted. "The scene is getting boring!"
"When is it my turn?"
(At Kami-sama's office)
Kami-sama watches the scene as he sips the cup of tea slowly. Sometimes, he enjoys the pleasures of human too much.
He began to form a small ball of energy in his chambers.
(Focus back to the battlefield)
Zarah cringed when the demon approached her. Although his body was mottled with cuts and bruises, it still radiated an aura of power from within it. Before that incident that happened to her 50 years ago, she might still adore and enjoy a body like that. But now, that feeling had extinguished into ashes.
Sebarah licked his lips.
"My my, it is a wonder why there are so few demons that are willing to enjoy your body. Your contours could turn any sensible demon into a demon with a maddening lust."
"That's because they would lost their members if they even taught of trying it!" Zarah replied through her mind, trying to fight back against him although she was painfully paralyzed there.
Sebarah smiled in return, "Well, my dear, you are not capable of doing that now. So just enjoy what pleasures I will give you soon."
Zazu watched as Sebarah hovered over Zarah.
Zazu could sense the intensity of Zarah's despair, as it was his own. It was a mixture of hopelessness and anger. However, he couldn't feel an emotion that Zarah had learned to hide it so well from everyone else.
Sadness.
"Oh Hild, please don't let this happen to me," she cried in her heart. As defiled as she is by all the things she had done through her entire 210000 years, she didn't want to be defiled by that demon. Throughout the entire 50 years of self-misery she had, what she liked and disliked had changed a lot.
She no longer liked to be controlled by demons, but preferred to torture and gave the pleasure to herself only. Hild would praise her for that sense of evilness that she had accomplished, but it was all because of the change of her heart.
It was something that had been turned into a slab of stone.
She felt something that emitted from Zazu. He was feeling sad and hopeless too. Now, that's something weird for her. Why he should feel sadness when she was the one getting 'hit' here? Was he sad about the condition she is in?
Then a taught cast came from him. He was...
Apologizing?
Continuous drops of water can erode even the largest pieces of stone.
That emotion that radiated from Zazu stung her heart like a bee. Coupled with the current turmoil she is in now, it melted away the very last resistance she had made over the past 50 years in her heart.
(Sebarah prepared to insert his member into her.)
Tears began to well up in her eyes. With her muscles screaming in protest, she turned her head toward the direction where Zazu was held in a stasis bubble.
She looked straight into his eyes and noticed that he was sad as she could ever seen it...
Her head finished the turn. Tears that well up fell down across her eyes...
She was very tired of freezing her heart, and released all her sadness out towards Zazu...
His eyes widened as he felt it...
Sobbing in her mind, she finally asked him, "Zazu, help me."
(Focus to Zazu)
"I'm such a loser and such a weakling," Zazu moaned in self-misery. "I couldn't even be there to protect someone I liked." Even Angi-Dev couldn't calm him down.
He looked as the demon began to change his position to a 'suitable' manner over Zarah. It amplified his current emotions a thousand fold.
"Zarah, I'm so sorry I couldn't be there to protect you," he spoke to her through his mind. It carried his sadness and regret straight to her mind.
He was shocked when he felt something new for the first time when she spoke back to him.
Two hearts in tandem sharing a similar feeling amplified the emotion by a thousand fold.
"Zazu, help me."
The word rang through his mind.
"Zazu, help me."
"AAARRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!" he screamed as loudly as he can. If there were mountains over there, it would give a mournful echo through the air.
SHRAKKKK!!!THOOOMMMM!!!!
Thunderstorms began to appear over them. The earth began to shake and rumble. Two streaks of energy approached Zazu from opposite directions. Yagdrassil's energy approached from the sky, slammed through the force field and comforted him. Vanagdrassil's energy appeared from the ground and gave him strength. His wounds heal rapidly, and he was not hurt anymore.
Zazu found that he was filled with power. His body was charged with energy, begging to be unleashed at the demon.
A bright glow began to appear from the direction of his left hand. It was his grayish sword. It shone brightly as the color of the sword changed to white. He felt Yagdrassil's power coming from the sword.
The sword of his right hand grew darker as if it was trying to suck out the light around it. Exactly the opposite of his left sword, Vanagdrassil's power radiated from it.
Now, his left sword has a 'heavenly' element imbued into it while his right sword has a 'hellish' element imbued into it.
Zazu turned to face Sebarah. He saw Sebarah frantically cast his regeneration spell, as the demon expected a huge challenge coming from him. Then the second spell was cast immediately after. From the textbook he read, the second spell the demon cast was an offensive spell, which made his claws venomous.
Sebarah had no time to cast his third spell before Zazu charged at him.
This time, both sides were evenly matched.
Zazu found that he was merely restored to his original condition where he had full strength and energy. He still did not have an advantage towards the demon. However, his mind was calm now realizing that he was on par with the demon. Sooner or later, the demon is going to make a mistake, and he would exploit it completely.
Many times during the battle, he was slashed by the demon. The slash was not dangerous not painful, but the poison was. It seared through his body as if lava was flowing through his veins. However, his calm mind acted quickly, and he managed to distract Sebarah long enough to cast his healing spell to dilute or neutralize the poison.
Hundreds of slashes traded places and literally both of the combatants were riddled with cuts and wounds. Wounds were gashed open and resealed as their regenerative and healing spells worked against time to heal their bodies.
Zazu was still as calm as usual, but Sebarah began to worry. It was something that would be fatal to him.
Zazu was cutting through the air when Angi-Dev gave him an idea to finish Sebarah off. Angi-Dev noticed something that Zazu couldn't notice because he was too busily occupied with Sebarah. His companion looked at Sebarah's wounds and noticed that wounds that were crisscrossed by both his holy and hellish swords did not heal.
Zazu acknowledged his companion's idea and began to lay a trap for him.
He reduced his parries on the top right of his chest, and waited for Sebarah to take advantage of it.
Someone who had never lost before in his life will never ever adapt to a situation when he found that he couldn't win. It was another few minutes of dizzying swings in the air before Sebarah worries turned to panic.
Finally, Zazu gave Sebarah an opening by deliberately swinging both of his swords in tandem at a 7 o'clock angle but missing Sebarah completely.
Sebarah's mind was too panicked that he immediately took the advantage without thinking of the consequences. Both of his hands quickly went in and gave a slash in an X-shaped manner towards Zazu's right chest. Blood spurt upward in the air.
Zazu went in and slashed his left sword upwards onto Sebarah's torso. He then kicked Sebarah at his jaw with his left leg, distracting Sebarah for another second. Then he dematerialized both of his swords, and rematerialized his hellish sword on his left hand. Finally, he gave another cut with his hellish sword, following the bloody path of his holy sword downwards on the opposite direction.
Sebarah shot a fireball at him to escape temporarily from the incoming damage. He smiled as he had disabled Zazu's right arm. His wounds didn't look as serious as Zazu's one, and his opponent would need a lot of and energy to heal the wound.
His smile lasted for another two seconds before it turned to pain.
He looked down at his torso and noticed it wasn't regenerating by itself. The wounds wouldn't close. He continued to bleed through the wound. He looked towards Zazu and noticed he had healed himself completely, and armed with two swords again.
"What have you done to me, you (Censored 'F' cursing word) paradox?"
Sebarah decided to run away from the battle from now. The doctors in hell would fix him up. Then it will be revenge for him.
Zazu watched as Sebarah fled from him. He didn't attempt a chase.
Instead he transferred the energy from his body towards his swords. The left sword grew brighter, while the right sword grew darker. The swords functioned as capacitor banks for him to store his energy. After holding enough energy on the both of the swords, he threw both of the swords towards Sebarah's direction.
At a distance, Zarah watched as two spectacular explosions appeared in the distance. Firstly, it was a dark explosion that absorbed all the light around the area, which made the area looked like it was night. A blinding explosion followed, thus making a scene which looked like a solar eclipse, where the bright light from the holy explosion shone the ground partially white, while the light of the other portion of ground was absorbed by the dark explosion.
Sebarah would be skinless by now because those two explosions would burn his skin away. His regeneration spell will heal him back, but pain will surely radiate throughout his body for a long time.
Dammit! He would not die!
Instead, a gory scene happened.
Sebarah screamed out loudly. Blood flew out from Sebarah's arteries as they refused to rejoin. He looked like a reddish fountain with blood shooting out from his neck, armpits, behind his elbows, wrists, groins, behind his knees and ankles. Blood flowed out of his mouth as he trashed and screamed in pain. A red fog appeared in the air around Sebarah.
Unable to control his body any more, the trashing red pulp fell down to the ground with a muffled thud.
It took another few seconds before the thrashing body was scythed by a dark figure that finally arrived to the scene.
It took another few seconds before a pang hit her. Usually spells are made by Hild and are transferred down to her minions. However, he was probably the first being in such a long time that made a spell without Hild's assistance.
Now she even had to admit she began to grow an admiration towards him.
(Focus to Hild's chambers)
Hild saw the scene first handedly. Of course, being the ruler of all Vanagdrassil, she could control and do anything she wanted in hell.
That is including what her minions see outside Vanagdrassil.
She will edit the scene, of course. Zazu, being a demon and a god at the same time, proved to be an advantage to her. All she need was to remove all his demonic traces of the recording on the scene, and removed all the memories of her minions that saw the actual scene. If they refuse, they would be slain immediately, of course.
Finally, she will send an edited scene of a god slaying Sebarah to all her minions.
It will surely flare the temper up of all the demonic creatures in Vanagdrassil. Sooner or later, they would ask for blood to be repaid by blood, and chaos will soon erupt throughout the entire three realms.
However, her minions need to be provoked a little bit more before they become uncontrollable and ignore the rules that was agreed by Yagdrassil and Vanagdrassil together.
She sends one of her spies to go and spy her grandson.
(Focus to Yagdrassil)
Peorth couldn't simply understand why Kami-sama was so relaxed about the current situation here in Yagdrassil.
All he did was to ask all the gods and goddesses here to calm down before he returned to his chambers. Didn't he know that it would not be sufficient enough to calm them down? What is going on within his mind?
Speaking of Kami-sama, she remembered that she had to pick the hybrid up later. Shaking the taught of Kami-sama out of her mind, she jumped into her teleporting medium and vanished.
(Back to Zazu, Zarah and Mara)
Zazu finished healing himself, Zarah and Mara completely. He then transformed himself back to his demonic form. He still preferred his demonic form to his godlike form, because the most important person in his life awakened him in this form.
Mara looked at Zarah. Through mental link:
"How are you, smaller sis?"
"I'm fine, big sister, just feeling a little violated, I guess. He failed to do anything through."
"Geez. If there were any demonesses out there that would feel that they are violated by sex, it would be you. I hate those fifty years we went through, you know."
"I know."
"And one more thing, if I ever attended military training, I swear I would peel his skin off by the layers for this."
"Yeah, right. Your terrible elder sisterly love will always charm me."
"You..." Mara wanted to scream at her sister, but saw Zazu approaching them both. She could sense a new emotion within her sister's heart that was trying to be hidden, but not to avail. Well, she could always torture her younger sister later, and let her enjoy for now.
"Well, enjoy you time, sis." She gave a killer look to Zarah before flying off.
(Zazu and Zarah)
"So, how are you?" Zazu asked her. "Still feeling pains everywhere?"
"I'm fine, thanks."
Suddenly, Zarah's face grew stern.
"What made you took so long?"
"Huh?"
"Did you know how much pain I was in there?"
"Sorry, but I..."
"What were you doing in the bubble that time?" she moved her face closer, giving her a sharp look.
"I was trying to..." his face was a little pale from the unexpected assault.
"Did you know how terrified I am, when he was near me?"
"I know, I just..."
Moving very close to him, 4 inches from eye to eye. "Did you know I was so terrified that you felt it?"
"Yes." A timid and squeamish voice replied.
"Did you know that I managed to keep it for fifty years but you made me release it?"
"I know! I'm sorry to make you felt like this, ok? I'm so sorry!"
"Idiot."
Zarah hugged him and gave a full-blown kiss on his lips.
Zazu was stunned for a few seconds there. It was his first one.
"Zazu, thank you. You are the first person that made me open my heart to someone else." She hugged him tightly. "Thank you again."
"Uh, you are welcome." Zazu felt as he was in heaven.
Both of them sat down onto the grass. She leaned against his chest, while he was hugging her from her back. Both of them held each other's hands tightly, indicating the tight link that they shared towards each other.
Soft winds blew across the grass, and brushed against them. The grass rippled across the field with a melody on its own, as if singing a romantic tune to their surroundings.
They sat there for hours, watching the sun set beyond the hill. Even when it was until night, they watched the stars, silently together for hours.
Zazu was remembering his past. He was very thankful that he had divine blood. If it weren't for it, he would still be a moody loner studying like mad for the next exam.
Now, he is a friendly person that could make friends easily, full of self-confidence (except in front of Zarah), and best of all...
He had Zarah. Although she might not meet the qualifications of his dream girl, he didn't mind. Having something to cherish with is better than having none.
Zarah on the other hand, was feeling very happy too. She had someone that she could share her feelings with, whether it was happiness or sadness. Best of all, she felt so free. She didn't need to mask her emotions behind everyone that she met again. She felt as if the pressure and pain was blown away by the wind.
"You know, we still haven't flare yet." Zarah told Zazu.
"What's that?"
"You'll know soon," she replied. It would be very pleasurable to them both.
They hugged each other tightly until the night ended.
End of part 2. Ah! My Demon!
__________________________________________________________________
Firstly, I would like to say thank you to all that gave their reviews to me. I treasure it very much.
Well, for those who taught that I was going off course, you are not right there. My style of writing is to make sub-stories that will slowly build up the main story behind the whole fan-fic.
Honestly, I am building the main part of the story, which you would realize finally when the last few chapters come. :)
This will be the end of part two of the fan-fic. Part three will start in the next few chapters, where Zazu will visit Yagdrassil to meet Imma.
Zazu and Zarah pushed the demon through the portal. Zarah's portal led to another grassy area. It was a wide-open plain area, with waist- length grass and the weather was cool. Weirdly, it was somewhere in the spring season. It was nearly winter in Tokyo a few moments ago!
Zazu went in to have a piece of Sebarah first. Swinging his swords in an X-shaped manner, he kept the demon on the defensive. What surprised him was Sebarah was defending his attacks with his claws only! It gave the demon great speed and maneuverability, but low reaching length and power. He spun around and slashed diagonally with his right hand hard, and made the demon flew slightly backwards.
Zarah flew in and demanded attention from Sebarah.
It was Zarah's turn to charge as Zazu watched a few meters behind her. They couldn't fight together against Sebarah at the same time, because their weapons will do more harm towards each other compared to their enemy. Zazu's attacks consist of wide angles of swinging, and they would 'dance' around him in a 1.5-meter radius. If he was fighting with Zarah side by side, it will surely hit her.
Her attacks mainly consists of entire body movements and twirls as the wings behind her back would not move more beyond the normal flapping range. The most she could extend her wings was to cover her from any frontal attacks, but the sharp sides of her wings would point sideways. (If you couldn't imagine further about this, imagine how Lilith folds her wings in vampire hunters) While the opponent was distracted by the lethal swings from her wings, she would use her hands to give quick punches at the vulnerable points at her opponent.
Zazu was quick to realize something. Imagine the sight when a second- class demoness decides to fight against a senior first-class demon.
Sebarah's claws easily parried her wings. Reacting at lightning speed, Sebarah grabbed both of her hands, and closed his distance beyond the striking range of her wings. He pulled her hard to him, and smacked her body hard against his.
"Do you like it?" Sebarah chided her. "Have a feel of my muscular body."
Of course, Zarah couldn't reply.
Zarah choked as the air was knocked out from her. It was not very painful or very harmful to her, but it made her paralyzed a few seconds.
"And by the way, you should be glad while you still can feel it!"
And that time was more than enough for Sebarah to give Zarah two long bloody furrows on her abdomen. The claws did not only give external damage to her, but it tore through her breasts, her ribcage and punctured both of her lungs.
Zarah allowed the gravity to control her body downwards.
"Zarah!" Zazu screamed, as he was fixated at the blood gushing out from her chest, trailing her body in the air as she began her descend. He didn't remembered Zarah casting her regeneration spell before the battle started.
He rushed in attempt to cast the healing spell on her.
Of course, since when Sebarah will let him do that?
Zarah's body was falling, Zazu was trying to catch it, and Sebarah was in the middle of his path.
It was more than enough to make Zazu mad that he summoned out Angi- Dev and become a hybrid.
With better maneuverability than Sebarah because of Angi-Dev wings, he swooped past Sebarah and grabbed Zarah. And that was not before he gave a nice slash on Sebarah's arm. Sebarah howled as he was caught by pain and surprise.
"Zarah, don't you die on me yet. You mean a lot to me." Zazu said as he whispered to her before he lowered her to the ground. He didn't know whether she could hear him or not. Her blood made his torso red. Taking out a lot of energy from his body, he cast the most powerful healing spell he ever had on Zarah.
Her punctured lungs close, and the front of her body seemed to be normal again. Zarah open her eyes, to see Zazu hovering over her. He heaved a sigh of relief.
It was only for a few seconds through, as Sebarah rammed him aside.
"Thanks a lot, she is much more pleasurable when she is warm," Sebarah told Zazu pleasingly. "And I don't need waste energy healing her too."
"You die painfully from this," Zazu told Sebarah in a very angered state.
And so the battle between the two titans begins.
(Focus to the temple)
The three goddesses experienced a moment of shock when a huge demonic power was released near the temple. The power was awesome, and was terrifying to Skuld, the one with the least of powers among the three sisters. Belldandy herself was sweating from the sudden outburst of power.
Pain seared through their minds as lives were extinguished immediately. People are dying.
Keiichi tried to calm Belldandy down by hugging her. However, breaking from his grasp, "Keiichi, people are dying out there. I must help them." Belldandy looked straight into Keiichi's eyes, looking for his approval.
"Go then, you must do what you must. Please be careful," Keiichi was certainly worried about his goddess.
"I will. Take care of the house," she replied.
Belldandy, Urd and Skuld flew towards the source of the demonic energy.
(At the Demonic Mischief Office)
Mara felt anger that was emitting from Zarah. This was not a normal one, as the feeling was much more intense. Zazu had certainly pissed her sister off big time. He is definitely going to feel pain from Zarah's outburst.
She chuckled and continued her work.
A few moments later...
A moment of passing death passed through Mara. She gasped and choked for breath as the feeling of life was washed out from her very core being. Her sister was dying.
In a dizzied state, she hopped into a CD, finding the nearest portal to her sister.
(Focus to the three goddesses)
The sight made Belldandy cringe in horror. Flattened corpses were skewered on a straight path originating from a detached Ferris wheel. How could a demon do this? It basically breaches the very core rules of divine beings of Yagdrassil and Vanagdrassil. No meddling in human lives unless he or she is destined for. This is a cold-blooded slaughter from a demonic being.
She sensed Zarah's, Zazu's and a strong demonic presence in the vicinity earlier, but now they couldn't be detected anymore. Somehow they have teleported to another place.
The Ferris wheel laid sideways on the ground, where humans could be seen crying or shocked in terror.
It would take a lot of work to fix the situation. They have to make people forget that divine beings were in the area.
Firstly, they have to seal off the area by blocking all the communication lines entering and exiting the area. After that, they have to form a huge bubble of energy, and block all the people's minds that had witnessed the incident. Finally, they have to find each and every single human being that had seen Zazu, Zarah and the demon and erase their memories off completely. Finally, they have to make a suitable story and infuse that memory into their minds.
The reaper was seen leaving the area. Normal goddesses such as Belldandy and her sisters cannot resurrect the dead humans. Only Kami-sama and Hild can.
Urd definitely will be responsible in altering their minds. Only she could be calm enough to create a suitable 'death' scene to be infused into the minds of people who had witnessed the incident.
Being the first to recover, Urd barked, "Skuld, start jamming very single communication link and trace all of them to their sources outside the area. Belldandy, form a mind bubble around the area. I will find every single being that witnessed the incident."
Somehow, Urd prayed to Kami-sama, hoping that Zazu was save.
They began their immense work of removing any demonic presence in the area.
(Focus to the battle)
Dark distortions were seen flowing through the air as Zazu slashed his sword with anger towards Sebarah. Angi-Dev had his wings fully materialized behind Zazu, so basically the two demons were seen cutting through the air at quick speeds.
Zazu was a little slow in the beginning of the battle with Sebarah, and suffered a wound on his right arm. However, anger overcame pain, and Zazu ignored it completely. Realizing his mistake, he cast his speed spell, and charged at him again.
Coupled with the lack of energy when he transferred a lot of energy into Zarah, he was tired. He didn't have time to heal his open wounds.
Zarah was looking at the battle from the ground, laying flat on her back. Her body hurt so much. She would even feel better if she had visited a private session to the torture pits in Vanagdrassil.
Thunderclaps were heard in the air hundred of slashes were exchanged in a matter of seconds between Zazu and Sebarah.
However, Zarah can see clearly that the demon have a slight advantage of stamina over Zazu in the battle. Zazu's moves were slowing down and becoming less offensive. Sooner or later, he will surely turn to defensive mode, and the odds will pile against him.
A few minutes later, Zarah was right. Zazu had changed the grip of his swords into dagger style and begin fighting defensively. He won't last much longer.
She sensed that Mara was approaching fast to her. She hoped that her elder sister was quick enough to arrive and help Zazu. Mara definitely couldn't fight the demon alone by herself, but if Zazu and Mara combined their skills to attack that demon, they might have a chance to win.
(Focus to Mara)
Mara arrived to the scene watching Zazu and a demon exchanging slashes in the air.
"Sister, what happened?" Mara went over to her smaller sister and cast a regeneration spell over her.
"A demon attacked me and Zazu when we were dating. The demon nearly killed me, but Zazu transferred a lot of his energy over to me to cure my wounds. He is losing the battle. Go and help him," her sister replied.
Mara will surely taunt her sister if the given circumstances were right. However that pleasure was not available here. She quickly rushed in to aid Zazu in the battle.
It was just a few seconds to late.
Zazu's defenses buckled. He unsuccessfully parried Sebarah's right claw, it raked a few inches into his left arm, and tore off the top muscle there. Removing his left sword from the battle, (he couldn't hold it anymore) he defended the next volley of Sebarah's slashes with one hand only.
It was weird through. Someone should be visiting any moment now.
Sebarah noticed the new demoness that was approaching him fast. Realizing the threat, he decided to quickly finish Zazu off.
Mara watched as Zazu lost the maneuverability of his left hand. Desperately fighting for survival, Zazu was 'single-handedly' defending himself from the demon. Soon, the demon found a weak spot among the angle of his defensive slashes and exploited it completely.
The first slash from the demons claws knocked Zazu's sword away. It disappeared into thin air as Zazu unsummoned it.
The second slash was across his chest and made a gaping wound one foot diagonally long there.
The third slash hit his face, removed his right eye and partially blinded him.
The forth slash was at his chest again.
The fifth slash was aimed at snapping the arteries at his throat.
Zazu saw the final claw coming at him with his remaining eye. The final sight was slow, as if death wanted to play games at him before he died.
He smiled at the claw. People say you must die happily anyway. He tried his best to protect the person he liked. Although he failed in the end, he was happy that he was brave enough to attempt rescuing someone instead of running away to hide in a corner.
The claw came within reach of a few inches of his throat.
"Take care, Zarah," he gave a final taught cast to Zarah.
Oddly enough, someone still hasn't arrived at the scene yet.
And the claws missed, as Sebarah was head butted aside by Mara. Before he could do anything further, he found himself encased in a containment bubble.
Sebarah was glad that he learned the containment spell to hold off weaker enemies. The spell would not be strong enough to hold that demon-god- mortal, but he was weakened enough that he would probably unable to break his bubble.
That leaves one more demoness to go before its pleasure time. And he was damned lucky that it was the second demoness he was looking for. He thanked Hild for the 'blessing' she gave to him. If Zarah wasn't on earth, he couldn't touch any of them at all. They would be too close to each other that he couldn't fight them on a one at a time basis. Furthermore, other demons might take advantage of his scheme.
Mara was keeping her distance, as she has no combat experience to begin with. She pelted the demon with fireballs, but watched in terror as the demon brushed them aside as it were raindrops falling on him. He closed the distance quickly, even though she was flying backwards while shooting fireballs at him.
It was not long before she found a hand slapping her face hard. Hard enough that Mara plummeted to the ground and made a small crater there.
(Focus to Zarah)
Zarah felt a pang as Zazu's reached her through his mind. That hybrid still taught of her when he was dying! What the hell? Did she mean that much to him? Does the meaning of death was not as important as her?
Again, Zazu stupidly attempted to rescue her and asked for death again.
"Why Zazu?" she replied his call. No answer came.
Her sister was in time to stop the deathblow approaching Zazu. Her heart froze at the scene. She was glad that he was alive.
However, the feeling of gladness quickly turned to a feeling of dread as she watched her sister fall like a meteor towards the ground.
Zarah still sensed her sister was breathing. The slap was not hard enough to break her sister's neck. However, Mara remained unconscious on the ground, limp as if she was a rag doll.
That leaves one laughing demon in the air admiring the work he has done on all three beings that couldn't move there.
Zarah began to squirm in terror as the demon approached her.
(At Hild's chambers)
"Sigh, why is it taking so long?" Hild grunted. "The scene is getting boring!"
"When is it my turn?"
(At Kami-sama's office)
Kami-sama watches the scene as he sips the cup of tea slowly. Sometimes, he enjoys the pleasures of human too much.
He began to form a small ball of energy in his chambers.
(Focus back to the battlefield)
Zarah cringed when the demon approached her. Although his body was mottled with cuts and bruises, it still radiated an aura of power from within it. Before that incident that happened to her 50 years ago, she might still adore and enjoy a body like that. But now, that feeling had extinguished into ashes.
Sebarah licked his lips.
"My my, it is a wonder why there are so few demons that are willing to enjoy your body. Your contours could turn any sensible demon into a demon with a maddening lust."
"That's because they would lost their members if they even taught of trying it!" Zarah replied through her mind, trying to fight back against him although she was painfully paralyzed there.
Sebarah smiled in return, "Well, my dear, you are not capable of doing that now. So just enjoy what pleasures I will give you soon."
Zazu watched as Sebarah hovered over Zarah.
Zazu could sense the intensity of Zarah's despair, as it was his own. It was a mixture of hopelessness and anger. However, he couldn't feel an emotion that Zarah had learned to hide it so well from everyone else.
Sadness.
"Oh Hild, please don't let this happen to me," she cried in her heart. As defiled as she is by all the things she had done through her entire 210000 years, she didn't want to be defiled by that demon. Throughout the entire 50 years of self-misery she had, what she liked and disliked had changed a lot.
She no longer liked to be controlled by demons, but preferred to torture and gave the pleasure to herself only. Hild would praise her for that sense of evilness that she had accomplished, but it was all because of the change of her heart.
It was something that had been turned into a slab of stone.
She felt something that emitted from Zazu. He was feeling sad and hopeless too. Now, that's something weird for her. Why he should feel sadness when she was the one getting 'hit' here? Was he sad about the condition she is in?
Then a taught cast came from him. He was...
Apologizing?
Continuous drops of water can erode even the largest pieces of stone.
That emotion that radiated from Zazu stung her heart like a bee. Coupled with the current turmoil she is in now, it melted away the very last resistance she had made over the past 50 years in her heart.
(Sebarah prepared to insert his member into her.)
Tears began to well up in her eyes. With her muscles screaming in protest, she turned her head toward the direction where Zazu was held in a stasis bubble.
She looked straight into his eyes and noticed that he was sad as she could ever seen it...
Her head finished the turn. Tears that well up fell down across her eyes...
She was very tired of freezing her heart, and released all her sadness out towards Zazu...
His eyes widened as he felt it...
Sobbing in her mind, she finally asked him, "Zazu, help me."
(Focus to Zazu)
"I'm such a loser and such a weakling," Zazu moaned in self-misery. "I couldn't even be there to protect someone I liked." Even Angi-Dev couldn't calm him down.
He looked as the demon began to change his position to a 'suitable' manner over Zarah. It amplified his current emotions a thousand fold.
"Zarah, I'm so sorry I couldn't be there to protect you," he spoke to her through his mind. It carried his sadness and regret straight to her mind.
He was shocked when he felt something new for the first time when she spoke back to him.
Two hearts in tandem sharing a similar feeling amplified the emotion by a thousand fold.
"Zazu, help me."
The word rang through his mind.
"Zazu, help me."
"AAARRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!" he screamed as loudly as he can. If there were mountains over there, it would give a mournful echo through the air.
SHRAKKKK!!!THOOOMMMM!!!!
Thunderstorms began to appear over them. The earth began to shake and rumble. Two streaks of energy approached Zazu from opposite directions. Yagdrassil's energy approached from the sky, slammed through the force field and comforted him. Vanagdrassil's energy appeared from the ground and gave him strength. His wounds heal rapidly, and he was not hurt anymore.
Zazu found that he was filled with power. His body was charged with energy, begging to be unleashed at the demon.
A bright glow began to appear from the direction of his left hand. It was his grayish sword. It shone brightly as the color of the sword changed to white. He felt Yagdrassil's power coming from the sword.
The sword of his right hand grew darker as if it was trying to suck out the light around it. Exactly the opposite of his left sword, Vanagdrassil's power radiated from it.
Now, his left sword has a 'heavenly' element imbued into it while his right sword has a 'hellish' element imbued into it.
Zazu turned to face Sebarah. He saw Sebarah frantically cast his regeneration spell, as the demon expected a huge challenge coming from him. Then the second spell was cast immediately after. From the textbook he read, the second spell the demon cast was an offensive spell, which made his claws venomous.
Sebarah had no time to cast his third spell before Zazu charged at him.
This time, both sides were evenly matched.
Zazu found that he was merely restored to his original condition where he had full strength and energy. He still did not have an advantage towards the demon. However, his mind was calm now realizing that he was on par with the demon. Sooner or later, the demon is going to make a mistake, and he would exploit it completely.
Many times during the battle, he was slashed by the demon. The slash was not dangerous not painful, but the poison was. It seared through his body as if lava was flowing through his veins. However, his calm mind acted quickly, and he managed to distract Sebarah long enough to cast his healing spell to dilute or neutralize the poison.
Hundreds of slashes traded places and literally both of the combatants were riddled with cuts and wounds. Wounds were gashed open and resealed as their regenerative and healing spells worked against time to heal their bodies.
Zazu was still as calm as usual, but Sebarah began to worry. It was something that would be fatal to him.
Zazu was cutting through the air when Angi-Dev gave him an idea to finish Sebarah off. Angi-Dev noticed something that Zazu couldn't notice because he was too busily occupied with Sebarah. His companion looked at Sebarah's wounds and noticed that wounds that were crisscrossed by both his holy and hellish swords did not heal.
Zazu acknowledged his companion's idea and began to lay a trap for him.
He reduced his parries on the top right of his chest, and waited for Sebarah to take advantage of it.
Someone who had never lost before in his life will never ever adapt to a situation when he found that he couldn't win. It was another few minutes of dizzying swings in the air before Sebarah worries turned to panic.
Finally, Zazu gave Sebarah an opening by deliberately swinging both of his swords in tandem at a 7 o'clock angle but missing Sebarah completely.
Sebarah's mind was too panicked that he immediately took the advantage without thinking of the consequences. Both of his hands quickly went in and gave a slash in an X-shaped manner towards Zazu's right chest. Blood spurt upward in the air.
Zazu went in and slashed his left sword upwards onto Sebarah's torso. He then kicked Sebarah at his jaw with his left leg, distracting Sebarah for another second. Then he dematerialized both of his swords, and rematerialized his hellish sword on his left hand. Finally, he gave another cut with his hellish sword, following the bloody path of his holy sword downwards on the opposite direction.
Sebarah shot a fireball at him to escape temporarily from the incoming damage. He smiled as he had disabled Zazu's right arm. His wounds didn't look as serious as Zazu's one, and his opponent would need a lot of and energy to heal the wound.
His smile lasted for another two seconds before it turned to pain.
He looked down at his torso and noticed it wasn't regenerating by itself. The wounds wouldn't close. He continued to bleed through the wound. He looked towards Zazu and noticed he had healed himself completely, and armed with two swords again.
"What have you done to me, you (Censored 'F' cursing word) paradox?"
Sebarah decided to run away from the battle from now. The doctors in hell would fix him up. Then it will be revenge for him.
Zazu watched as Sebarah fled from him. He didn't attempt a chase.
Instead he transferred the energy from his body towards his swords. The left sword grew brighter, while the right sword grew darker. The swords functioned as capacitor banks for him to store his energy. After holding enough energy on the both of the swords, he threw both of the swords towards Sebarah's direction.
At a distance, Zarah watched as two spectacular explosions appeared in the distance. Firstly, it was a dark explosion that absorbed all the light around the area, which made the area looked like it was night. A blinding explosion followed, thus making a scene which looked like a solar eclipse, where the bright light from the holy explosion shone the ground partially white, while the light of the other portion of ground was absorbed by the dark explosion.
Sebarah would be skinless by now because those two explosions would burn his skin away. His regeneration spell will heal him back, but pain will surely radiate throughout his body for a long time.
Dammit! He would not die!
Instead, a gory scene happened.
Sebarah screamed out loudly. Blood flew out from Sebarah's arteries as they refused to rejoin. He looked like a reddish fountain with blood shooting out from his neck, armpits, behind his elbows, wrists, groins, behind his knees and ankles. Blood flowed out of his mouth as he trashed and screamed in pain. A red fog appeared in the air around Sebarah.
Unable to control his body any more, the trashing red pulp fell down to the ground with a muffled thud.
It took another few seconds before the thrashing body was scythed by a dark figure that finally arrived to the scene.
It took another few seconds before a pang hit her. Usually spells are made by Hild and are transferred down to her minions. However, he was probably the first being in such a long time that made a spell without Hild's assistance.
Now she even had to admit she began to grow an admiration towards him.
(Focus to Hild's chambers)
Hild saw the scene first handedly. Of course, being the ruler of all Vanagdrassil, she could control and do anything she wanted in hell.
That is including what her minions see outside Vanagdrassil.
She will edit the scene, of course. Zazu, being a demon and a god at the same time, proved to be an advantage to her. All she need was to remove all his demonic traces of the recording on the scene, and removed all the memories of her minions that saw the actual scene. If they refuse, they would be slain immediately, of course.
Finally, she will send an edited scene of a god slaying Sebarah to all her minions.
It will surely flare the temper up of all the demonic creatures in Vanagdrassil. Sooner or later, they would ask for blood to be repaid by blood, and chaos will soon erupt throughout the entire three realms.
However, her minions need to be provoked a little bit more before they become uncontrollable and ignore the rules that was agreed by Yagdrassil and Vanagdrassil together.
She sends one of her spies to go and spy her grandson.
(Focus to Yagdrassil)
Peorth couldn't simply understand why Kami-sama was so relaxed about the current situation here in Yagdrassil.
All he did was to ask all the gods and goddesses here to calm down before he returned to his chambers. Didn't he know that it would not be sufficient enough to calm them down? What is going on within his mind?
Speaking of Kami-sama, she remembered that she had to pick the hybrid up later. Shaking the taught of Kami-sama out of her mind, she jumped into her teleporting medium and vanished.
(Back to Zazu, Zarah and Mara)
Zazu finished healing himself, Zarah and Mara completely. He then transformed himself back to his demonic form. He still preferred his demonic form to his godlike form, because the most important person in his life awakened him in this form.
Mara looked at Zarah. Through mental link:
"How are you, smaller sis?"
"I'm fine, big sister, just feeling a little violated, I guess. He failed to do anything through."
"Geez. If there were any demonesses out there that would feel that they are violated by sex, it would be you. I hate those fifty years we went through, you know."
"I know."
"And one more thing, if I ever attended military training, I swear I would peel his skin off by the layers for this."
"Yeah, right. Your terrible elder sisterly love will always charm me."
"You..." Mara wanted to scream at her sister, but saw Zazu approaching them both. She could sense a new emotion within her sister's heart that was trying to be hidden, but not to avail. Well, she could always torture her younger sister later, and let her enjoy for now.
"Well, enjoy you time, sis." She gave a killer look to Zarah before flying off.
(Zazu and Zarah)
"So, how are you?" Zazu asked her. "Still feeling pains everywhere?"
"I'm fine, thanks."
Suddenly, Zarah's face grew stern.
"What made you took so long?"
"Huh?"
"Did you know how much pain I was in there?"
"Sorry, but I..."
"What were you doing in the bubble that time?" she moved her face closer, giving her a sharp look.
"I was trying to..." his face was a little pale from the unexpected assault.
"Did you know how terrified I am, when he was near me?"
"I know, I just..."
Moving very close to him, 4 inches from eye to eye. "Did you know I was so terrified that you felt it?"
"Yes." A timid and squeamish voice replied.
"Did you know that I managed to keep it for fifty years but you made me release it?"
"I know! I'm sorry to make you felt like this, ok? I'm so sorry!"
"Idiot."
Zarah hugged him and gave a full-blown kiss on his lips.
Zazu was stunned for a few seconds there. It was his first one.
"Zazu, thank you. You are the first person that made me open my heart to someone else." She hugged him tightly. "Thank you again."
"Uh, you are welcome." Zazu felt as he was in heaven.
Both of them sat down onto the grass. She leaned against his chest, while he was hugging her from her back. Both of them held each other's hands tightly, indicating the tight link that they shared towards each other.
Soft winds blew across the grass, and brushed against them. The grass rippled across the field with a melody on its own, as if singing a romantic tune to their surroundings.
They sat there for hours, watching the sun set beyond the hill. Even when it was until night, they watched the stars, silently together for hours.
Zazu was remembering his past. He was very thankful that he had divine blood. If it weren't for it, he would still be a moody loner studying like mad for the next exam.
Now, he is a friendly person that could make friends easily, full of self-confidence (except in front of Zarah), and best of all...
He had Zarah. Although she might not meet the qualifications of his dream girl, he didn't mind. Having something to cherish with is better than having none.
Zarah on the other hand, was feeling very happy too. She had someone that she could share her feelings with, whether it was happiness or sadness. Best of all, she felt so free. She didn't need to mask her emotions behind everyone that she met again. She felt as if the pressure and pain was blown away by the wind.
"You know, we still haven't flare yet." Zarah told Zazu.
"What's that?"
"You'll know soon," she replied. It would be very pleasurable to them both.
They hugged each other tightly until the night ended.
End of part 2. Ah! My Demon!
__________________________________________________________________
Firstly, I would like to say thank you to all that gave their reviews to me. I treasure it very much.
Well, for those who taught that I was going off course, you are not right there. My style of writing is to make sub-stories that will slowly build up the main story behind the whole fan-fic.
Honestly, I am building the main part of the story, which you would realize finally when the last few chapters come. :)
This will be the end of part two of the fan-fic. Part three will start in the next few chapters, where Zazu will visit Yagdrassil to meet Imma.
