The second test

The dessert, a hot, sandy and horrible place to be…and still I'm here in the middle of NOWHERE!

"Jessica this is getting on my nerves! When the hell do we arrive in Patch Village!" I exclaimed.

Four days of horrible walking have gone by and still no sight of patch. And worst is I still don't know what's gonna happen, when it's gonna happen and most important how it's gonna happen! I felt completely useless, but I had to go on…

"Tory-chan, how should I know? I've seen just as much episodes as you! And besides we both know the end is still far away, so ya also don't have to worry about Hao, okay?" my best friend said, rolling her eyes.

"If mistress is worried, why doesn't she just go back to him?" Emerald asked.

"Puh-lease, after what he did last time? He ignored me and tried to strangle me! NO WAY, I'm going back, I'll save him but that's it!"

All three of my spirits looked sad at me, but I didn't care, I was too mad of the whole situation.

"So you didn't only come back because you were bored." Yoh said.

Oh god, he heard me! ARRRG, DAMN WHY!

"Nope! And I don't feel like talking about it!" I walked faster.

"Tsk, tsk, that isn't the attitude we expect from an Acolyte."

"OH BROTHER, NOT YOU THREE AGAIN! What do you want!"

I heard laugh and all of the sudden everyone and everything froze! Even the spirits of my friends…

"So, Tory, are you ready for the second test?" Jada suddenly stood in front of me.

"This one you have to complete by yourself." Fawna appeared next to Jada.

"With the help of your spirits ofcourse." Gavin laughed.

"You know, you three really start to annoy me! how am I supposed to help if I only know the minimum of information about what's gonna happen!" I yelled and back off a little bit.

"That's the point of this test; if you win you can ask us to transport something from your world, something that might help you on your quest." Jade answered.

Before I could say something back they started to chant. A beam of white light was created and a huge spirit stood in the place where the priests just stood!

"Oh boy, not good! Emerald, Destiny and Blue Flame into the beads! Weapon- AAAH!" I was attack before I even could change my weapon…

I could barely dodge the attack of that giant spirit. It was some sort of dinosaur, with bat wings on its back and feathers were on the place were its ears were supposed to be.

"DAMN, we can't win with only the beads. I don't know much spells to use them." I quickly jumped up to dodge another attack of the dinosaur.

"Maybe it is time for you to learn a new form of oversoul…" the voice of Jada said, through the space.

"A new form of oversoul? Ya understand what they mean, Jessi?"

"Hmm, Oh the Giant oversoul! But it's way too soon to learn THAT!" Jessica gasped.

"How do I summon it? AHH!" I yelled wile running away from the spirit.

There was nowhere to hide, so running was my only option for the moment.

"Uhm, I read something about using a double medium, two weapons at the same time!"

"I don't have two weapons! The beads change, but it's still one weapon!"

The dinosaur launched a beam and it hit me in the back. I fell on the ground and wasn't sure if I was able to get up…

I have to win this, if I don't I'm not sure if I can save Hao anymore! Hao…

"Do you give up or do you wish to continue this fight?" I heard Fawna say.

"I don't give up! I'll continue with this stupid test and I WILL win!" I slowly stood up and walked to face my opponent.

"Very well then, Kikiyo finish her!"

"WHAT! Finish me!" I was shocked, first they say I'm 'the chosen one' and now they want that THING to finish me!

"Tory-sama I wouldn't mind if you use that giant oversoul now!" Emerald lunged out of the star beads.

"I DON'T HAVE A FREAKING DOUBLE MEDIUM, BAKAS! The only thing I have is the necklace that Hao gave me…Where is it!" I looked around the area and saw it lying right in front of the dinosaur, Kikiyo.

No, that was the necklace he gave to me the night before we left to meet yoh!

Flashback

"Where have you been? I didn't felt your presence near the camp."

"I was…taking a fresh nose! And I forgot about the time. What worried?" I tried to lie.

"You're not a very good liar, it's only too bad you can keep your thoughts away from me." he smirked and came closer.

"You don't have to worry that I'll interfere with your little plan. I have my own agenda!" I challenged him by also walking closer.

"I don't worry that you'll interfere, 'cause if you do I'll simply kill you." He whispered in my ear.

"Would you really kill the only person still alive from YOUR first lifetime? You should know that it really wouldn't be polite if you kill the one who saved your LIFE back then!" and with that I left the tent.

I only didn't notice he walked after me, till it was too late…He graphed my right wrist, so that I had to stop.

"No, it wouldn't be polite, but then again I can't use a traitor in my team." He said and tightened his grip.

"Like I said I am NOT a traitor! I can't kill you if I'm supposed to save you…" I assured him and tried to walk further, but he still refused to let go. I turned around to face him, only to receive a passionate kiss…

I quickly broke it blushing heavily. "What the hell do you think you're doing! Once, okay, but twice!" I totally freaked out and he just stood there laughing at me.

"What's so funny!" I grumbled.

"You are. You still don't get it, do you?" he smirked and pulled me closer.

"Get what?" I asked nervously.

"You don't have to save me from whatever you're scared of. It's still like when we were little, I look after you; I'm still the oldest one around here."

"OLDEST! You're only a few months older and I was around here in your first lifetime! So stop blabbering about who's olde-!" he smiled again and walked into the forest.

'What the heck!'

"Are you coming or what?" he asked without turned around. I quickly ran after him.

When I finally caught up he was already sitting by the lake, the SoF was hovering above the water surface.

"I was talking to you! And why did we have to come here?"

"YOU didn't have to come here, you followed me."

"Is that supposed to be funny? Because I don't see the humor in it…" I glared at him, but he was just ignoring me, again.

After a few moments of sitting and just starring at the water, he finally stood up. The Spirit of Fire floated towards him and handed him something.

"Can we go back to the camp, I'm still hoping to at least catch an hour of sleep." I yawned.

"Sure. Here this is for you." He handed me something and gave me a quick kiss on the cheek, before he transported himself back to the camp.

"Oh yeah, leave me behind!" I yelled to no one.

I opened my hand and saw a small, red, heart shaped pendant lying in it; it had a silver star and full moon in it. A silver chain was attached to it.

"That's a nice piece of jewelry you got there, Tory." Jessica teased.

"Yea, it sure is!" Destiny added.

"You two are so immature!" Emerald said and rolled her eyes.

I could only smile and look at the pendant.

"Hao…"

End flashback

"HAAAAAAOOOO!" I yelled and fired an energy orb at that spirit. As fast as my feet could go I ran towards it and graphed my necklace.

"Tory-sama, that's it use that necklace as the second medium!" Emerald exclaimed.

"But how-? Hmm, okay let's do this! Blue Flame, Emerald, Destiny combine your strength, Giant Oversoul!"

My three spirits came out of the beads and they fused into one spirit! They transformed into what looked like a giant wolf with the blue wings of Blue Flame, the green eyes of Emerald and on its paws, head, chest and neck were violet colored armor. It also had a horn on its head.

"Good! You managed to use the giant oversoul, now hope it's enough to defeat our shikigami…"

"Wow, you guys look amazing! Hmm, how should I call you? I got it DEJ (Dei-je)!"

I heard them laugh, so it probably was okay. "Now prepare to be destroyed shikigami! DEJ, attack!" I yelled and immediately my spirit started to glow.

It changed into a blue flaming wolf. I jump on its back and was surprised the flames weren't hot.

"Okay, Meteor Crush!"

DEJ fired an orb of bright yellow light at the dinosaur shikigami, it was still standing but you could see it was damaged.

"Mistress I guess we should give 'em all we have, don't cha think?" DEJ said. I could hear their voices were mixed into one new voice.

"Fine, Give it all Star Shower!" a rain of stars dropped down at the shikigami and when the dust cloud was gone, the shikigami was also gone.

"Very good, you passed the second test. What item do you what to have from your world?" Fawna Asked.

"Hmm, that's an easy one my sketchbook of course! I've drawn all the pictures Jessica had collected, even ones that haven't take place yet." I cheered.

"Very well then, here it is…" Jada answered and then they unfroze time.

"Dude, what happened?" Horo asked.

"How should we know ainu!" Ren was irritated yet again.

"I won, I won, I won!"

"What did you won Tory?" Yoh asked raising an eyebrow.

"The second test of the priests! And look, my sketchbook, now I have less to worry about!"

They all just stood there sweat dropping, but I didn't care, I was too happy to finally have something from my own world. Something that could help me on my quest…

Somewhere else:

"Hao-sama? Opacho wonders when Tory-san will be back."

"Worried Opacho?"

"Opacho doesn't like it one bit that Tory-san travels with master's brother!"

"…She'll be back soon…very soon!"
