Chapter 6: Help from Mom and Dad
"Let me go you freak!" Iyama screamed, trying to get out of the gorilla demon's claws, or hands. Her anger level started to increase a lot more when she was whipped by the creature's laughter. She grimaced and grinded her teeth. The creature only laughed harder.
"I like humans that are funny, they're the best kind." It laughed. Being that they were in a huge tree, it shook a lot. They were spaciously sitting in a giant nest. She happened to be encircled by thousands of hungry, carnivorous monkeys plus, the huge one.
"Now, to not keep my children waiting, let us feast!" it bellowed, and all the monkeys lunged towards her. She cringed in fear, waiting for the biting and scratching to commence, but when she didn't feel or hear anything for that matter, she opened her eyes. She stood in pink and purple space, her feet stood upon solid air, when she looked around she saw two people running towards her. It was…her parents?
"Oh Iyama, we've finally found you!" her mothered cried, leaping into the air towards her daughter; Her hair flowing behind her with her eyes full of tears of joy, and a smile on her face. Her father was right beside her, tears streaming down his face.
"We've been so worried!" her father cried. They landed on her. However, she was quickly picked up, like a doll, and was squeezed by both of them. She felt air escaping her lungs, and it didn't seem like it was going to be coming back. They finally let go of her.
"Oh Iyama, we were so worried! We looked in your room and you weren't there! Then we looked all over the history of Rome, then Australia, and then we thought of Japan and we've finally found you!" her mom sighed, her eyes now flooded with tears.
"How did you find me? What do you mean by 'looking all over the history of time'?" Iyama asked.
"What?" her father exclaimed and jerked back from his daughter. "You mean you forgot?"
"Forgot?" she asked confused.
"Iyama-chan, do you mean to tell us that you've forgotten the stories we've told you?" her mother asked.
"You mean those stories about you guys traveling through time and space?" she asked.
"Yes!" her mother said happily.
"I thought those were actually "stories"!" she shouted.
"Well, they're not!" her father barked.
"We've told you, we are the Angels of Time and Space, it is in our blood. Well, it's in your father's blood, but that doesn't matter." Her mom stated.
"That explains why I started falling from the sky, because I wished I was in Japan." Iyama thought out loud.
"Exactly, the stories we tell you are true. So, do you like it here in Feudal Japan, did any of the demons hurt you?" her dad asked.
Iyama looked at him blankly.
"Well, I was just about to be a pleasantly devoured by demons before you found me." She stated flatly.
"Oh my goodness that's wonderful!" her mom exclaimed. She jumped away from Iyama and went over to her husband. They held each other's hands and looked at each other with dancing eyes.
"Yes, it's perfect! Our daughter will use her powers for the first time." Iyama's dad said with joy.
"Remember when we first met?" her mother asked him, blushing.
He chuckled.
"What! You think this is perfect! How am I supposed to use my powers?" Iyama yelled.
They both looked at her with smiling faces.
"Well, if you want to live and you know what you love the most, then you'll figure it out." Her father said.
Her parents started to walk away, her father wrapping his arm around his wife.
"What, where are you guys going? Aren't parents supposed to protect their young?" she exclaimed, but they soon vanished and she slowly reentered her previous situation.
'Must not get eaten! Will not get eaten! Never ever, ever will I get eaten! I love everything that I don't already hate!' she thought rapidly as everything started to move in slow motion, including the carnivorous monkeys! 'Come on, I want to live and I don't want to die!'
Just as everything went back to their natural speed, a green orb engulfed Iyama, sending some of the unlucky monkeys flying; the orb spun around, faster and faster until it was a swirl of bright green light. Inside the orb, Iyama began to change. Her long ebony hair became short and a midnight blue shade. Her brown orbs grew to an emerald green, her clothes changed into an elegant, blue gown, four huge wings (two on each side) sprouted from her back, and a long cepter (with a crescent moon at the top) materialized in her hand.
The green orb stopped spinning and shattered into a thousand pieces, piercing most of the monkeys. The giant gorilla demon roared in anger and swiped at her. Her wings spread out and she evaded the attack. Before the demon realized he had missed her, Iyama raised her cepter and an orange ball of light surrounded it.
"Arrows of Serenity!" she proclaimed. She lowered her cepter at the demon and thousands of arrows rained down, striking it. The demon let out a final roar and fell out of the nest, crashing through branches and striking the ground with a sickening thud. Iyama sighed in relieve and flew down several feet away from the corpse. Too bad she didn't know that a certain group of people saw her.
"Whoa, that was close. Thanks for helping me Mom and Dad!" she shouted sarcastically into the wind.

Author's note: Review, review. Remember if you review, I put up more chapters. It doesn't have to be a good one. It could be one saying that I suck but still.
