Chapter 7

Return home…with news

Kirin awoke from his unconsciousness, lying next to Katrina, for some reason had her clothes on, and the ship was heading back home. He decided to race through the knowledge that was given to him by the fire god before Star killed him, Kirin couldn't believe her selfishness, she desired only the knowledge that contained chaos, Kirin had to stop her, but with the same strength as star, how much strength would she have now with the knowledge she stole from Kirin. He decided not to worry right now, he wanted to know about his Cerinian side of the family.

Inside mind

Kirin looked around, he was floating for some reason, then he looked down, it was Cerina, in its former glory.

"Where…the…hell?"

Kirin watched closely down at the Cerinians, he noticed that three of them were his mother, his grandmother, and his grandfather, this must have been the knowledge that Kirin gave him, now instead of listening, he would just watch as he learns of his Cerinian side. Hours went by, and Kirin…was bored then hell.

"MY GOD! THIS IS SO BORING! WHY THE HELL WOULD I WANT TO KNOW THIS?"

Kirin was angered, the knowledge he found, the questions he wanted answered…a waste of his time, now he let Star have the knowledge with Chaos, possibly something he wanted to learn more about.

"Damn, all this time I…huh?"

The planet started to crack, Krystal hurried to her ship, but Zagin and Kira didn't make it in time, the ground that they had stood plunged them into the crust, buried while the planet was destroyed. Someone floated above the dying planet, smiling and laughingat all the destruction, Kirin was angered of who it was: Star.

"Damn you Star…wait…what's that in her paw?"

Star held a small light in her paw, absorbing energy from the core of Cerina, Kirin knew something he should have asked all along, how did the planet get destroyed? Star destroyed the planet that someday he wanted to go to, this power lusting Soul Edge descendent looked at the lifeless planet, the souls of a million Cerinians were consumed by that orb in her paw.

"Wait…if I destroy the orb, maybe Cerina and all the Cerinians will return to life, that orb must be the source of her power, I saw it on the head of her staff, when she struck me with it, I thought I just got struck by a wreaking ball, but it was actually the planet of Cerina…Star…"

Kirin opened his eyes, the ship was entering through the atmosphere of Corneria, landing near the base.

"I will kill you Star, for the suffering of others."

Kirin stepped out of the ship, Katrina right behind him, His family and friends asking him if he did it and learned what he wanted to know. Then he looked to his father with sadness in his eyes.

"Dad."

"Yes Kirin, what is it?"

"I...I fought Grandpa."

"You mean Zagin? How?"

"Not my Cerinian Grandpa…Your dad."

Fox froze, he couldn't believe it, he didn't want to believe the words, but he couldn't help it, Kirin couldn't lie to him.

"Grandpa…was the Soul Edge wielder before me…when I had to complete the Soul Edge, I needed a bone of the Descendent before me."

"He gave you a bone from his body."

"Spirit."

"What? Kirin I…I don't understand."

"Dad…I fought Grandpa as a spirit because he was already dead, the descendent before him poisoned him, then when I defeated grandpa, he disappeared and gave me one of his bones."

Fox placed his Paws on Kirin's shoulders, clenching hard, and looked into his sons eyes.

"Kirin…please…please tell me your lying!"

"I'm not dad…Grandpa was dead when I resurrected him with Alchemy."

Fox was crying now, his father was dead a long time ago, Kirin got to see him, but Fox never got to.

"He didn't want me to tell you…but then you wouldn't get to know your family either…and that's not fair."

Fox hugged his Son, holding him close.

"Kirin…"

"What?"

"Thanks…I needed to know this, for all these years, I thought he was alive, only to figure out he was long gone."

"That's not all that troubling…I know how Cerina was destroyed."

Now everyone was being thrown aside by Krystal, she grabbed Kirin by the shoulders, hoisting him into the air, just screaming at him "how?"

"Another Soul Edge wielder...ack…A vixen named Star, now can you put me down?"

"It is true."

The entire group looked in back of them, Star sat on the wing of the Arwing, smiling and looking at Kirin.

"I destroyed Cerina, I stole the souls of Cerina, now I shalldestroy the remains, and that race…will be forgotten."

Kirin stepped forward, holding his Soul Edge in his paw, the Eyes fixed themselves onto Star, looking angered.

"Not as long as I still have Soul Edge."

Star smiled, she was planning something in her twisted mind.

"Kirin…why don't you join me? We could rule of the lylat system…just you and me."

Now this set Katrina off, she lunged at Star, scratching her, trying to murder her.

"YOU STAY AWAY FROM MY VULPINE BITCH!"

Star pushed Katrina off and pushed her to the ground, scratching her back.

"WHEN I'M DONE WITH YOU, HE'LL BE SLEEPING IN MY BED, CUDDLING WITH ME, NOT YOU!"

Kirin stopped walking, and lowered his soul edge. He started smiling, he knew this wasn't right, but he loved how this was going.

"Alright…vixen's fighting over me…damn I just have to say it."

"CAT FIGHT!"

The two didn't hear his call, they just kept on attacking each other, insulting one another, doing what most females do, fighting over a male with whatever they could think of. Fox walked towards his Son.

"Kirin you know this isn't right."

Fox looked to the left and right, making sure no one would hear him.

"Twenty credits on Star."

"You got it!"

Kirin turned around, looking at everyone watching the two battling Vixens.

"Betting is now open."

The group rushed over, placing all their bets on star, but Pinza and Krystal still had dignity and placed their bets on Katrina.

Katrina pulled Star up and slapped her across the face, knocking her to the ground. Star started to crawl away, pushing herself up.

"Damn…you win this round, soon, both the lylat system and Kirin will be mine, you'll see."

And with those last words, Star disappeared from their sights, everyone just mumbled, while Pinza and Krystal locked arms and started to dance, knowing they got everyone's money.

"Next time, bet on someone who actually is on our side, not the other way around."

Mccloud residence

"How am I suppose to defeat a Soul Edge wielder with the strength of a planet? I couldn't even harm herat the temple. And now she has Kirin's power and the knowledge that contained chaos! How can I compete with that?"

Kirin was troubled at all this, Star was indeed stronger then he was, he couldn't harm her with his normal strength, something inside the knowledge had to give him the answer, but where to look?

"Why don't I just search the Soul Edge history, maybe I'll learn more about Star that way."

Kirin sat and meditated, delving into his given knowledge, he had to know more about his enemy in order to succeed, but would he find anything on this crazed conqueror, and would he be able to stop her?

Inside mind

A book floated before Kirin, he opened the tome as it made screeches, signaling that it wasn't open for a long time. Inside the pages was the History on the Soul Edge wielders, he turned the pages, they blew off dust as they landed on one another, he finally came across Star, and by examining the pages, there was about thirty-seven pages all about her evilness.

"The anti-descendent?"

Kirin read further about Star, She had annihilated almost every fleet of every planet, using her fathers powers to absorb free energy and make it her own.

"Whoa, this girl is seriously dangerous."

Kirin had to know more, she was the anti-descendent, she was immortal with youth, and she liked the same Vulpine Katrina did.

"Now I know why she needs me."

Kirin looked off the Final page, her plan laid out in words for Kirin to read, he knew why Star stole his knowledge of Chaos, but she didn't use it yet.

"She needs a mate!"
