Chapter 5
Found Again
"Come on sleepyhead! Get up!" Beatorsa said this to Tora Yasha as he kept trying to wake her up.
"Ugh...what time is it?"
"Umm...I'd say about five in the morning."
"WHAT! You gotta be kidding me!"
"Nope. Anyway, don't you wanna find your friend?"
"Oh. Yeah. Where is the jewel?"
"Oh I have it for safe keeping. We can't have any other demons stealing now can we?"
"Whatever, let's go." Beatorsa took to the sky as Tora Yasha ran.
"Man, it's been a long time since I've had to sleep out here in the demon world, and even longer since I've had to wake up so early." Kitsune said this as she yawned, got up, and went to go look for Tora Yasha.
"How long has it been? I'm hungry. I'm thirsty." Tora Yasha whined as she dragged on further.
"You know, you are such great traveling company."
"Thank you!"
"I didn't mean that as a compliment."
"Hey!"
"Shhhhh!"
"What is it" Tora Yasha whispered.
"Just stay still and be quiet."
"Right." Out of nowhere a huge Cyclops like creature came out from the other side of the forest right at the two travelers.
"Hurry! Move!" Beatorsa yelled as he pushed Tora Yasha to the ground.
"Come on! Charge!" Beatorsa stood in front of the limp form of Tora Yasha. He was trying to charge his spirit cannon ball.
"Dammit! Why won't this stupid thing charge!" While Beatorsa was busy trying to charge his spirit energy there was an orange glow from the pouch at his side.
"Come on! Charge!" The jewel flew from the pouch into Tora Yasha's outstretched hand.
"Ughh...my head...what happened? Whoa!" Tora Yasha looked at her hand to see a sword clutched in it.
"Nice sword Tora Yasha, now do you think you could give me a hand here?"
"Oh...sorry." Within only a split second Tora Yasha had sliced the demon's head off.
"About time! I was almost demon chow!"
"It's not my fault you didn't decide to give me this sword until now!"
"I didn't give it to you! I thought it was your sword."
"Hold on...look! There's an orange jewel set into the hilt! Check your pouch, is the jewel still there?"
"Nope. Wow, I read that the emeralds had special powers. But I didn't think that this was it!"
"My question is why did it come to me instead of you? I was knocked out cold."
"I have no idea."
"Tora Yasha!" Kitsune yelled as she trudged through the forest searching for her lost daughter.
"God, where has that child gotten too?" Soon Kitsune heard a deep growling sound then a huge THUD!
"Whoa! I wonder..." Kitsune took off toward where she heard the sound.
"Some how I have a feeling that these jewels possess more power then my friend thought."
"Hey, that could be true too, but for right now let's see if you can handle that sword." Before Beatorsa could say another word Tora Yasha held out a lock of his hair.
"Is this proof enough that I can handle a sword?"
"Umm...Yeah."
"I think we should get goi......wait! Kitsune?!"
"Who's Kitsune?" After this statement from Beatorsa, Tora Yasha was hugging another demon like herself except fox.
"Geeze kiddo, I've been looking everywhere for you!"
"I'm so happy you found me!"
"Ahem..."
"Oh yeah, this is Beatorsa. I met him while looking for you."
"Nice to met you. Beatorsa is it...? Was your father be Siano by any chance?"
"How do you know?!"
"Ya look like the splitting image of him. Anyway, how is that ole' Lord of the East?"
"Well you see, he died a few years ago in a battle against the Lord of the North. It was a territorial battle of course, but there was something odd about the way the North Lord acted..."
"I see, but wouldn't that make you the rightful heir to the kingdom?"
"Yeah, well...not yet."
"Okay, now that we're together let's get going." Kitsune said to the two.
"Wait Kitsune! I have something to show you!" Tora Yasha yelled after her mother.
"Yeah, well...?"
"Okay then, take a look at this sword."
"Umm...okay."
"Watch." Tora Yasha concentrated real hard while holding the sword flat in her palms.
"Is that?!" Kitsune gasped.
"Yup! It's one of the guardian jewels!"
"Whoa, you couldn't do that before!" Beatorsa said in shock.
"Well, while you two were yapping away I was toying around with the sword and figured it out."
"Wow, you're better at this then I thought." Kitsune said, knowing that this ability came from her father's side of the family.
"I just hope you won't use it as your father does." Kitsune said to herself. I thought that chapter was gonna last forever! Sorry I haven't updated lately, my computer has been on the fritz and I don't trust it. It also might be that I'm lazy too... Well anyway I hope everyone is having a great summer! I'm gonna go read my new Trigun book!
