Chapter 15

Normal POV

They show him to where Rai was sleeping; Rai looks terrible lying there. He's pale and clammy and slightly shivers even in his sleep. Elijah nods as if it satisfied of something.

"This going to be messy," he sighs, "if you can't take the sight of blood then leave."

No one stirs and he once again nods his head as Dojo comes back with the knife. He mutters, "All right fair warning," before grabbing the knife and crossing the room.

Elijah stoops over the heavily sedated Dragon of the Wind and his eyes scanning him searching for something. He nods again as he finds what he was looking for. He lays the knife to the bare skin on Raimundo's upper right arm and presses down; blood oozes from the gash as he cuts.

Suddenly Elijah's knocked back several feet away from Raimundo, no apparent reason. He sat for a second- stunned- before getting up. He scans the room. Something knocks him back to floor once again.

"Interesting," Elijah mutters, before closing his eyes, folding his hands in front of him, and concentrating hard, the others watch him curiously.

He folds his fingers together; accept for the pointer fingers- sort of like a gun. All at once he opens his eyes pointing his hands forward.

They see a blur of moment in front of him as something is pushed back. Whatever it is comes into focus. It looks like a person… but who knows.

He has messy bleachie looking blonde hair. His eyes are dark purple, his skin pale. He's short.

He snarls annoyed that Elijah has broken his cloak.

"Who are you?" Elijah asks him dodging a blow from the enrage teen.

"Who am I!" He snorts as if offended. "Dear Elijah, you don't know your own creation as well as you think…"

He lashes out at Elijah once again and comes an inch away from sinking a blow.

"What do you mean?" Elijah asks not understanding, he silently sweats, 'whom ever this is, it isn't going to be an easy fight.'

"Tenkanokoku Kashuten, but you can call me Kash," He mutters and swings down landing a punch to Elijah's stomach. He slides back several feet.

"Kash, the Tenkanokoku Kashuten, that's a shengongwu," Elijah says silently trying to get up.

"Ha, I am," He says and slams his fists once again into Elijah.

"It can't be corporeal," Elijah says growing angry that this stupid person was trying to get to him; he had to be some agent of darkness. Going on the offense he slams his own fists into the other. "You're lying!"

"Am not," he snickers and quickly gets off the ground. "I've gotten enough power over the years, I knew you'd come back…"

"How can you? You only work when someone calls your name?" Elijah asks him as blocks the other's fist only to be sent flying by a kick.

"You honestly think that that boy said my name?" He snickers sauntering closer to the fallen Elijah and points to the boy on the bed.

Elijah answers by jumping up and slamming a foot into the other teen's face; pushing him back a couple feet.

"GO, ELIJAH!" Kimiko yelled encouragingly.

Kash ignores her as he snickers again and spits up a bit of blood. "No answer huh?"

"Shut up," Elijah growls using his agility to get in close and send the demon into the wall several feet back.

"Uw, aren't we testy?" he snickers, seemingly not phased from being slammed into a wall.

"You can't be right!" Elijah shouts bitterly shaking his head.

The demon turns to face the Warriors.

"Oh, who could be right?" he asks them and dodges another blow from Elijah.

"You leave them out of this!" Elijah yells at him.

"Oh, what you think they might agree with me?" he asks and takes the opportune moment to slam a fist into the dragon's nose.

"No," Elijah snarls as blood trickles from his nose.

"There ain't no way that he could be a wu," Clay says, as Elijah and the other teen fight.

"Well, I don't know about that," Omi says, Elijah snaps to the attention of the little bald monk and gets thrown back by the demon.

"What do you mean?" Kimiko asks Omi, Elijah gets up off the floor unhappily.

"I don't think we should be talking about this right now," Omi sighs, seeing they were distracting Elijah from his fight.

"The bald one agrees with me," the demon snickers and tries to punch Elijah only this time Elijah ducks and counters him causing him to fly back several feet.

"Fuck you," Elijah growls under his breath and delivers an aerial kick slamming Kash into the wall again.

He fell to the ground and looked up Elijah, furry in his eyes, "You know I'm getting very sick of crashing into that wall."

"Then give up!" Elijah demands.

"Yeah, you can beat him!" Kimiko yells at him.

"Wrong," Kash hisses, with lightning speed he was by Elijah's side and with the force that could hurl a semi kicks the dragon sending him crashing through the wall. Rubble from the broken wall falling down.

Kimiko screams in horror and Clay and Omi run towards the rubble.

They get two feet before they're blocked by Kash.

"Oh, and where the hell are you going!" He growled.

"Prepare to eat dust," Omi yells at him getting into battle stance.

"Oh, I'm so scared!" Kash squeaked sarcastically and held up his hands as if defeated before stopping and sneering at the dragon of Water.

"You will be before I'm through with you," Kimiko snarled as she stepped beside Omi and Clay. "Let's kick his butt."

Clay and Omi nodded and all three prepared to fight. Just then Kash was grabbed by one leg and hurled onto the other side of the room.

"You think a little rubble will stop me?" Elijah said quite calmly, "Well, don't worry because of that I had time to see what's going on… Your chain is visible."

Sure enough that was a faint glow and see through chain attached from Kash's arms and around his neck to back where the real shengongwu was still lying on the floor near Raimundo.

"What the…!" Kimiko yelled out in surprise.

"Your not really the wu, your just a puppet," Elijah said crossing his arms, "I'd like to know how this happen."

Without further warning Elijah grabbed Kash holding him down.

"Get off of me!" he hissed angrily.

"Sorry, it's the only way I can see the past from you," Elijah sighed as bent over locking lips with the other.

Several seconds went by as images sailed through Elijah's head. Finally he released the demon and got off of him.

A bright angry blush smeared Kash's face and he hissed at the intruding dragon.

"Oh, I see," Elijah said solemnly. "I feel so sorry for you… being reduced to that."

"What are talking about?" Kimiko shouted angrily at the dragon. "You not going to fight him now!"

Elijah shook his head. "No, I'm still going to fight him…."

"Good, let's fight!" Kash growled cutting Elijah off and jumping at him.

"You know it's impolite to interrupt," Elijah told him annoyed, dodging him. Kash ungracefully collided with the floor.

He whipped around angrily and charged again.

Elijah once again dodges, "You see I have an advantage on you."

"Bull shit!" Kash yells furiously, but doesn't make to charge him again.

"Well of course, you're bound to the wu for one and unwillingly so everything you do is hesitant even after so long," Elijah explaines as if he were saying something completely obvious to everyone. A smile mischievious smile lights his face. "Plus you're not even a demon. You're a dragon like Dojo and I; Numezi Kadera, right? That's why it's so easy for you to move about without being seen."

This seems to infinitely piss the creature off and it charges at Elijah once again this time swinging a kick at him. Elijah was expecting an enraged reaction from the wu it wasn't like this current state of affairs and didn't want to lose it's host; but Elijah hadn't expected the other dragon to be so fast it hit knocking him to the ground and sickening crack was heard.

"Ewww, something's angry," Elijah teases spitting out a small amount of blood. He tries to get up but only gets kicked in the ribs.

"You bastard, you can't beat me!" it hisses and adds an extra kick. All the sudden he whips around 180 to Elijah. "And what the hell are you doing!"

Kimiko freezes up instantaneously; the Tenkanokoku Kashuten in one hand.

"What are you talking about?" she asks innocently shoving the cuff behind her back.

"Kimiko, what are you doing! Stay out of this he'll hurt you!" Elijah warns worried.

"All right," she says hurriedly, "you take this," and she throws it at him.

It sails over Kash's head and he makes to grab it but Elijah swipes it first.

End of chapter 15

I apologize for the lame, two sentence, character description. I'm just not good at it yet. I also kind of feel like they disrupt the flow of the story when it's in a faster moving part. If you want a little better description of him, his bio's on my profile.

And secondly, I apologize to all of you who don't like all of the Elijah/Kash fighting. I thought about it and thought about it, but I just didn't see, keeping everyone in character, how the warriors would be fighting Kash. It's Elijah's problem so it's something he has to deal with. Like what happen above, if Elijah gets knock around too much then they'd help him. But at present they won't have to.

Third thing, sorry TamerTerra not working. Please atleast 8 reviews or I won't post the next chapter, and perferably not one's... well go read 'The Does and Don'ts of Reviewing' on my profile page.

There'stwo chapters left.
