It Was Just The Beginning

Chapter 19

The sword rushed down to deliver the killing blow, but just before it hit target, the sound of swords clashing against each other rang through the air.

"Not this time." A voice growled, pushing away the sword.

A lighting bolt shaped sword was swung between Ray and Avine's sword. A ranger in bright yellow armour wielded the sword. Her visor was shaped like a lightning bolt as well. The chest of her armour displayed a pentagram, on each point a different element was expressed in a circle; a red flame for fire, blue waves for water, a green leaf for plants, a black rock for ground and a yellow lighting bolt for electricity, in the middle of the pentagram a white circle was placed, no element seemed to be expressed what so ever.

"Who are you?" Avine demanded, obviously angry.

"Non of your concern." The ranger replied, coolly, relaxing her sword hand only slightly. "You'll be destroyed in a minute anyway."

"I wouldn't be so sure about that." Avine shot back, raising her sword again, this time to attack the ranger.

She lifted her sword to counter, minutes slowly ticked away as they danced around, sabres clanging, light reflected around. Avine was a good swords fighter, but as time went on, the ranger started to gain the advantage. Suddenly thunderclouds began to gather high up in the sky.

"Lei-zi, goddess of thunder and Tain-mu, goddess of lighting, hear my calls. Share with me your powers and stand by me to defeat this enemy!" The ranger suddenly called, pointing her sword straight up in the sky.

A lightning bolt came thundering down and stuck the sword, but instead of killing the ranger, like it should have, she started to glow, crackling with electricity. When she seemed to have collected enough power, she pointed the sword to Avine, who hadn't moved for a while, too stunned as she watched what was happening.

Before anyone knew what was happening, the ranger released the energy, striking Avine. She let out a scream, before she disappeared into nothingness.

"Who… Who are you?" Ray coughed, still lying on the ground demorphed.

Suddenly Kayla demorphed and run to her cousin, Dakota not far behind. Together they helped him stand, but kept him firmly up between them. It was obvious the combination of the fight and him being sick had drained him and he could hardly keep himself up anymore.

"It doesn't matter." The ranger replied shortly, turning around to go away. "I have to go."

The words seemed to enrage Ray, with the adrenaline accompanying the anger he pulled himself out of his cousins' arms and suddenly his blaster appeared in his hands pointed at the ranger. Kayla and Dakota followed his example, Chaitlin joining only seconds later. They were all glad they didn't have to be morphed to have call upon their weapons, since none of them were morphed anymore. The sound of the weapons charging made her turn back.

"You're not going anywhere." Ray growled. "You may have saved my life, but you could very well have done it to win our trust only to stab our backs. Now demorph and show us who you are!"

"I can't." The ranger replied, making every move to leave.

"Wrong answer." Ray replied and pulled the trigger.

The ranger disappeared in a ball of electricity for a moment, moving out of the way of the blast. The blast missed it and connected with a tree. Then the ranger reappeared – you could almost see a smirk on her face.

"YOU! Why not show yourself if you've shown yourself before? Rosa." Ray spat. "If that is really your name."

"No…" She agreed. "It isn't. But I can't tell you what it is, you wouldn't believe me."

"Try me." Ray shot back.

The ranger shook her head and sighed.

"You've got to trust me, Ray. I'm not here to hurt anyone."

"I don't have to trust anyone and I don't trust anyone but my family, the only people who seemed to have proven to be worthy of my trust."

"Hean's going to kill me." The ranger muttered, a bright yellow glow surrounded her.

When the glow disappeared, a girl about his age appeared. Soft brown hair flowed down to her shoulders and her clothes obviously a ranger uniform, but her eyes were what caught his attention. The colour seemed familiar, like he'd seen them many times before, but he couldn't place it.

"Ae ù-esteliach nad…" She spoke, her voice flowing around him. "Estelio han… Estelio hammen."

"If you trust nothing else…" Ray whispered, too soft for anyone to hear. "Trust this. Trust us…"

Suddenly it drew on him and his eyes widened. The girl in front of him, the eyes. He did know them and he looked in them many times and the words… Ancient Karovan, the ancient Karovan only few people knew, the ancient Karovan that warned Aurora evil had returned, the ancient Karovan in Aurora's song 'May it be'.

"Ciana…" He whispered, this time loud enough for it to be carried to his cousins and the girl.

Then his feet gave way, all his energy drained. He fell to the ground, unconscious. No one moved for a moment. All Chaitlin, Dakota and Kayla could do was stare at the girl Ray claimed to be his month old sister.

Angel Grove Memorial

"RAY!"
