Chapter 6
Battle
A scream echoed in the room. Tasuki shot open his eyes.
"HIKARI!!!" he cried. Hikari was standing in front of the bandit, the claw stabbed through her chest. Blood flew out of her mouth. The girl fell, and Tasuki grabbed her.
"Ya idiot! How could you? How could you?! You're so stupid! How could you?!!" he asked, tears were spilling out of his eyes. There was a smile on the younger girl's face.
"I. . .just couldn't. . .bear to. .lose. .one I. . .lo. .ve." she began. "I. .love. .you. . Tas. . .uki." the girl shut her eyes, and went on. ". . .yeah. .I. .fell in. .love with. . .you. . .when I was. . .a kid."
'Mama! What happened to the bandit guy?'
'Well, he stayed in his world, and wished for the priestess and Tamahome happiness. . .Hikari, what's wrong?'
'I feel sorry for the Tasuki bandit. If I were the priestess, I would have dumped Tamahome, and go for him!'
'Haha, it depends on who's the priestess.'
"Yeah. . .my mom. . .told me. . .sto. . .ries. . .about the. . .Pries. .tess and her. . .warriors. . .adventures. . ." "Hikari! Stop talking! Please! I don't want you to. . ." Tasuki choked on his tears.
"No. . .I felt. . .re. .ally. .sorry for. . .Tasuki. . .the. .Suzaku. .warrior. .because. . .he. . .suffered. . .so mu. . .ch. . .on sav. . .ing the. . .Pries. . .tess. .of Suz. . .ak. . .u. . . . ." The girl went limp in his arms.
"Hikari!" Tasuki cried. "No. . .it's happening again! How. . .Reirei died. No. Not that!"
"Aahh. . .did I hurt her?" Dokuro laughed. "I was going to kill her anyway, but I guess she did that job for me." The youkai looked at her nails.
"Y-you monster!" Nuriko yelled. Chichiri clenched his fists.
"I guess I am! AHAHAHAHAAHA!!!"
Tasuki sat there, holding Hikari tightly to his chest. Blood was covering her clothing.
"Aawwwww. He's fallen in shock of loss for his beloved!" Dokuro said.
"You just don't have a heart at all!" Chichiri yelled. He and Nuriko charged at the youkai, in an angry rage.
"Hi-Hikari!!" Miaka yelled. "no, Hikari!" she started crying. Taka looked at the book in shock.
"Th-this can't be. . .just two hours ago. . .she was here! THIS CAN'T BE!!"
Tasuki didn't take any reaction to what was happening to his friends. They were getting wounded by Dokuro. He just sat there, no expression on his face, though he was still crying.
'The past is repeating itself. . .' he thought. 'over and over.' Hikari still had that smile on her face.
'After. . . I saw. . .you 2 help. . .that woman in the city. . . I fell in love. .. with you Genrou. . .Kouji. . .was wonderful too but. . .Genrou. . .did it. . .because she was a woman. . . That. . .was really co. . .ol. .' Was what Reirei said. 'That woman. . .was. . .a. .you. . .kai.' 'I'm. . .sorry. . .I was always. . . . . .hanging around you. . .I was probably. . .annoying.'
Then she said, '. . .Hey. . .When. . .the Miko appears. . .you'll work. . .for her like you. . .should. . .'
That woman was a youkai. . .that woman killed Reirei and Hikari. . .that woman. . .will never be forgiven!
Tasuki just couldn't move though. He didn't want to. Chichiri and Nuriko flew across the room, and were knocked uncontious.
"Hm, I will let you join your beloved!" the Dokuro aimed her bloody claw at Tasuki. She charged at the bandit. . .
"Won't be forgiven. . ." Tasuki whispered. He started glowing a crimson light, as well as Hikari.
'From the four palaces of the heaven, the four corners of the earth. In the name of sacred law, belief, and goodness, I summon thee, Suzaku, lord of the south. I now say these words to thee. Appear on earth from the seven palaces of heaven for the sake of those who adore you and await your power. Hear us Suzaku, and with thy holy power defeat all that is evil. Save us! And hear our wishes to thee! Descend to us now from the heavens above!'
At that, Suzaku (in his pheonix form) appeared behind Tasuki.
"No! I thought there had to be all of the Suzaku Warriors! They had to be present!" Dokuro claimed. With one mighty flap of his wings, Suzaku crushed the frightened youkai. Her 'NOOO!' echoed in the room. Chichiri and Nuriko got up as Dokuro's room disappeared. The sun was showing outside.
Tasuki carried Hikari, while Suzaku was in his human form in front of the two.
"Suzaku. . .how did you. . .?" Nuriko asked, but the god interupted him.
"I am not sure of that." He answered. "although, I defeated Dokuro with the first wish."
"Tasuki, you can have the next wish, you know." Chichiri put a hand on the bandits shoulder. He looked back at his friend in surprise.
"Are. . .you sure?" for a reply, Chichiri nodded.
"Can you bring back Hikari?" Tasuki asked Suzaku. The beast god nodded, and a crimson light formed around Hikari. Her clothes were clean and fixed from the torns, and the wound disappeared. The girl opened her eyes.
"I thought I was dead." She mumbled. She looked up, and saw Tasuki smiling at her. The girl blushed a bit. "um. . .hey. Can you. . .at least put me down?" the bandit jumped, and helped Hikari stand. The girl looked at Suzaku.
"You must be Suzaku." She said. The beast god nodded.
"You can make the last wish, you know." Chichiri said.
"Oh, okay. . .um. . ."
"Wait, Priestess of Suzaku's daughter." Suzaku interupted.
"Huh?" everyone looked up.
"You have to decide whether you want to stay here, or go back to you world." He said.
Hikari stood there, not knowing what to do. In her world, she had lots of friends, and a family. Here there was Tasuki, and the Suzaku Seven.
"I. . .I don't know. . ." the girl stuttered. Here, Tasuki needed someone. Yeah, as a kid, Hikari was very fond of Tasuki the Warrior, and she wanted to make sure that he would be happy. She thought that she could decide easier, but now. .it was just too hard.
"I'll give you until tomorrow." Suzaku said, and disappeared.
"Hikari's alive, but she can't decide on whether to stay there or come back here." Miaka said.
"That's hard for me to decide." Taka scratched the back of his head.
"Maybe we should help."
"Hey, if Hikari wants to go back to her world, then I want to be reborn there!" Tasuki yelled.
"But, what about the Mt. Reikaku Bandits? What about Kouji?" Hikari asked. "you'll probably never see him again."
"I. . .I guess your right. . ." Tasuki slumped on his chair.
"Hikari does have friends in the other world, you know. She has a family there, too, you know."
"Yeah, but. . ."Hikari was interupted by a voice in the ceiling.
"Hikari? Are you there?"
"Mom!" Hikari noticed it was Miaka.
"Taka and I would like to help you."
"Okay," Nuriko nodded.
"Let's see, maybe we can keep in touch?" Taka asked. Hikari was holding on tight to Tasuki's hand.
"Maybe." Hikari said. Taiitskun appeared, and Tasuki freaked.
"DON'T DO THAT!!!!" he cried.
"You say you may want to keep in touch if she decides to stay here?" the old woman asked. Everyone nodded. "well, I have just the thing." Taiitskun chanted a few words, and a crystal ball, similar to the one that Hikari had at the beginning of the journey, appeared. It disappeared again.
"Hey! Where'd it go?" Nuriko asked.
"Back in the other world. Hikari can keep the one I gave her." The onld woman answered.
"So. . .all we have to do is talk through these?" Tasuki asked.
"Not only that, but you can also see eachother's faces."
"But. . .what about my school?" Hikari asked.
"That's another thing to think of. . ." Taka paused. "I know! You can study with Chiriko!"
"That's a good idea. . .hey Taiitskun, how long does she have to study?" Tasuki asked.
"All day."
"ALL DAY?!" they all sweat dropped.
"Maybe study at home." Miaka said. "and take the rest of the day off."
"Hmmm. . .that sounds like a good idea."
"Well, have you decided?" Taiitskun asked Hikari.
"Yes!" the group leaned in closer to hear. "I decided. . .that I will. . ."
Oya!!! Another cliffy!! Hoya!!!! Review if ya wanna know what happens next!
