No reviews? Aww.... That sucks... Ah well I still be trying though. To the fic! Mwaaaa! Beware of screwball humans and mildly deranged sharpclaw...
"Do you even know what we're looking for?" Kantra asked irritated as she glared at Kairos. "Would you hold it against me if I say no?" He asked. "I'd certainly like to..." she growled. After a moment she sighed "Do you even have any idea what the krazoa want you to do?" "Not really. I'm doing all this 'cause I want to find out if nothing else. They dragged me from my world and dropped me here, If their going to do that much then damned if I'm not going to see them and at least find out why." Kairos answered flatly. "Oh." Kantra murmured. "Well they DID basically take my life and say: Here you don't want this let US get rid of it for ya!" Kairos growled. "No wonder you've been acting like it's that time of year..." Kantra remarked as Kairos gave her a weirded out look.
"Right...whatever we're supposed to find SHOULD be here someplace." Kairos remarked when they stepped into the force point chamber. "That's if we can find...uh...make that reach it." Kantra said as she pointed at the center of the chamber. "Well crap...Question: what do you suppose the oh-so-great krazoa are thinking? Cause it can't be anything normal. Or really sane for that matter..." Kairos remarked in a dry tone as he looked at the small object floating in the middle of the chamber. Kantra glanced at the small metal object floating over the lava. Yike...The only way to get that thing is to jump. No one's that stupid! she thought glancing at where Kairos had been standing.
Wha...Where is he? she thought looking around. "You know, the only good thing about this trick..." Kairos started as he backed away from the inner edge of the platform. "...is that I don't think I can ever do ANYTHING MORE STUPID THEN THIS!!!!" He screamed as he ran and leaped off the edge! Assuming he lives through it! Kantra thought as she screeched in shock standing at the edge staring down at Kairos. He'd grabbed the relic on the way down, but he'd fully expected to become barbecue a split second after that... he groaned and peeled himself off the stone he looked up sheepishly at Kantra who looked more then ready to kill him herself. "Don't tell me: Death forgot his appointment with me?" "You Dumbass!! Are you trying to kill yourself?!" Kantra thundered. "Not really. Ya think I would have done that if I was all here though?" he answered smirking. Kantra just snarled as she shook her head annoyed and walked to other side of the room. Kairos smirked again and started working on getting across the stone blocks scattered across the lava.
"Come on, the least you can do is say something." Kairos said walking with a slight limp next to Kantra "No the least I can do is make sure you don't do anything else that idiotic." She growled. "Your still ticked off about that stunt? Geez...Wait a sec, Hang on." He suddenly said standing in front of her and holding an arm up to stop her. "Okay you turned me loose in the pass, you came with me to a temple inside of a VOLCANO of all places, and your actually helping me now, How come? I know your not doing this because you're a nice person. Actually with how you act sometimes I'm a little surprised I'm not wearing a collar..."
"First you tell me: why are you looking to help the krazoa? Or rather trying to find out what they want of you? You owe them nothing, they brought here against your will, this isn't even your home planet!" She shot back. "Okay sounds fair. I'm betting whatever they want, odds are, is gonna be reasonably major, but more to the point I've got no way of getting out of here, nothing else to do, And to be brutally honest I'm just curious about this place. Good reasons?"
"Yes...if a little strange ...As for why I'm giving you my help, isn't it obvious? Aside from wanting to get off of this planet anyway." She answered crossing her arms frustrated. "Uhh...okay...Had a feeling. But to be brutally honest....your big enough you could just grab me and carry me off to..." Kairos trailed off when Kantra started grinning at him. "Well the thought HAD crossed my mind, but even sharpclaw have some ethics, contrary to what others say." She said her grin broadening. Kairos' eyes widened some at that. "Umm...Right. Kudos for ethics then..." Kantra just laughed.
Since they were walking through Moon Mountain pass again Kairos knew she could do exactly as she claimed. He just wasn't sure what he what he thought of her... And wondering if the sentry's he knew were watching would do something now or not. Kairos shook his head and glanced at Kantra who was looking at him with gleam in her eye. Looking a little worried he quietly got out of her arms reach getting her to snicker softly at him. As they left the pass she grinned again and caught him with her tail and yanked him close before whispering in his ear "If I really wanted to catch you there's little chance you would get away. Or would want to guessing from how you act." Kairos looked at her startled and smirked ruefully. "Heh, I don't know about the first, but you might be right about the second. You know I won't act on it and I wouldn't let you either, not with me at least." Kantra glared at him for a moment. "Fine then. I won't do anything." She answered softly. "But someone I can actually trust would be nice if not my...first choice." Kantra finished looking intently at Kairos. He raised a eyebrow at her "You have that. You have my word" Said Kairos seriously. "Come on, time to get to get to Thorntail hollow. I'm betting I've got a couple worried Earthwalkers to deal with soon." He said dropping the serious tone and smirking.
And finishing off another chappy!! I left it alone for too long....Blah...And for those peeps who can't figure out what Kantra's talking about your either to young for the fic, or just clueless.
Kantra: Like yourself?
Exactly! Hey wait...aw screw it, never mind. Reviews!!! Need 'em!!
