Destiny's Magic
ch 5
'What the..?' Kento thought as he sensed something that definitely didn't feel natural.
'I suggest that the two of you move, unless you want you and your wife to be ensnared in Wood's cage that's coming towards you from behind.' someone replied in Kento's mind.
Kento took a quick look back and saw it coming. "Kaye, move!" Kento warned as he pulled her out of the way.
"Kento...What?" Kaye asked as they landed to the side, and Wood's cage flew past, and crashed into a tree as it shattered into tiny pieces.
"I should have known...Wood, return." Hikaru ordered, and then it disappeared. "Why don't you come out, Dark Lighter?"
"Hikaru, I'm impressed. After all this time, you're still using the same old methods. I thought that after two hundred years that you would have learned something new by now." Dark Lighter replied as he came out from the shadows. "I see that you're still carrying on the feud between your family and the Rei Fauns." Hikaru just looked annoyed at Dark Lighter's words.
"Who, or what are you? How did you know about..?" Kaye started to ask as she and Kento were now standing up and watching the two.
"My name is Dark Lighter, I'm a demon, actually to be more precise, a two hundred old demon lord. To answer your question on how I knew about the feud, well it's too early for me to tell. You'll all know when the time comes, but now isn't that time. Right now Hikaru and I have some...Unfinished business to talk over." Dark Lighter replied as the two started to walk towards the shadows.
"Oh and Rei Faun, I suggest that you brush up on your magic. Because, you'll going to need everything that you've got, and then some when we meet again." Hikaru warned as they disappeared.
"Kento, this proves it..." Kaye started to say as she looked over towards him.
"No Kaye, this doesn't prove anything. The only thing that this proves is how crazy everything is, and that's it, nothing more, nothing less." Kento replied as he was being stubborn.
"Kento, would you open your eyes and take a look around? Nothing natural can cause this kind of damage. What are you so afraid of huh? What's got you so afraid that you're turning your back on who you really are?" Kaye asked as she was getting tired of this.
"No it's not like that!" Kento replied as he was starting to get defensive.
"Then what is it? Tell me what's gotten you so afraid that you turned your back on your heritage." Kaye said as she looked towards him in concern.
"I'm afraid of what the magic will make me do. What it'll turn me into, if it'll make me do things that I don't want." Kento replied with a sad expression.
"Kento.." Kaye said quietly as she brought him into an embrace. "Everything will work out, you'll see."
'I hope so, but for some reason, this doesn't feel right at all.' Kento thought as they broke away from each other and started back to the house.

"Mind telling me why you interfered like that for?" Hikaru asked in slight annoyance.
"I don't have to explain myself to you, Hikaru. Just because you're a demon slayer and I'm a demon, doesn't mean anything. Besides, we're on the same side." Dark Lighter replied. "I'm giving you the extra power that you need in order to wipe out then entire Rei Faun family line."
"Yes, I know, you don't have to remind me." Hikaru said hotly.
"Maybe I do, because of what I saw, you're getting sloppy, very sloppy and I can't afford that. Especially if everything that is suppose to go as planned." Dark Lighter replied with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
"Then I'll wait until later tonight to strike again." Hikaru said, "this time I'll get them both."
"No." Dark Lighter replied in a warning tone.
"No? Why?" Hikaru asked as he was getting angry.
"Because I want you to go ahead to Hong Kong and get things set up there. I'll take care of the two Rei Fauns that are here." Dark Lighter replied.
"Dark Lighter, are you implying that I..?" Hikaru asked angrily.
"I'm not implying anything, Hikaru. It'll just be easier to do it this way." Dark Lighter replied, "now go."
"Of course." Hikaru said as he vanished.
'Hikaru is starting to get impatient. He's going to blow everything unless he gets his act together. Now, to bring the other two Rei Fauns to Hong Kong, my way.' Dark Lighter thought as he vanished as well.

"Do you think that it was wise for master Hikaru to make an allegiance with a demon?" Sho asked as he and the other demon slayers from the Tsungs guild were waiting for Hikaru to come back. "I mean, he's no ordinary demon, he's Dark Lighter, the ultimate demon lord. Why would master Hikaru actually ally himself with someone like him? I thought that since were slayers that we are suppose to, well kill demons, not work along side with them."
"Quiet down Sho, you know what happened the last time someone spoke up against master Hikaru?" Visea replied hurriedly in order to quiet him down. Visea and Sho knew that Hikaru had eyes and ears all around Hong Kong, and that anyone that spoke against him would go through a fate that's far worse than death.
"I don't care, Visea, Hikaru has gotten too arrogant for his own good. He has lost sight of what's the true objective." Sho said in a bored manner.
"You definitely have a death wish. You are completely out of your mind." Visea replied in disbelief.
"So..." Sho said as he looked at his nails.
"So? That's all you can say is so?" Visea asked as he looked at him wide eyed.
"Don't get so excited, it's not like anything is going to happen to us right away, master Hikaru is going to need all of the slayers that he can get." Sho replied in arrogance.
"That maybe so, but still, you shouldn't feel like you should talk so freely like that." Visea warned.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever Visea. Come on we'd better get back, or master Hikaru will be out looking for us." Sho replied as they finally were on their way.

"What the heck happened here?!" Cye asked in concern as he and the others finally arrived.
"We had some unexpected company." Kento replied in a huff.
"Unexpected company?! What, Kento, it looks like what happened to the city during the Dynasty Wars." Ryo said as he motioned over the destruction. Everything in sight looked like it was either petrified or destroyed totally beyond repair. "You should have called us!"
"We didn't exactly have the time to call and say Ryo, hey mind rushing over here and helping us out. Besides, Hikaru and Dark Lighter were nothing that we couldn't handle anyway." Kento growled.
"Dark Lighter? Who's that?" Sage asked as he looked over towards them.
"He's a demon, and it looks like they're allies." Kaye replied with a frown.
"What kind of demon?" Rowen asked with interest.
"Don't know." Kaye replied as she shook her head. "But all he said was that he's a demon lord."
"Very good, you were paying attention." Dark Lighter said as he appeared hovering above them. "Now I would suggest that you and your husband come back to Hong Kong with me…We can either do this the easy way, or we can do this the hard way. It makes no difference."
"Yeah right. Like we're going to go with you!" Kento replied as he and the others got into a fighting stance.
"I thought that you would choose the hard way." Dark Lighter said, "this should prove to be fun." As soon as he finished saying that, demons came from all around and started to encircle them.
"Sub armor, now!" Ryo called out as they dodged out of the way. They nodded and quickly changed, then the demons decided to kick it up a notch, and dive bomb everyone that was in their site. A couple of demons dived into the ground, and quickly came up from behind Kento and Kaye, grabbed onto them and flew them high into the sky, and then when they were high enough they let them go, plummeting down fast to the ground.
