Chapter 4: reveal yourself part 2

"Show yourself evil creature!" Omi ordered.

"Is that anyway to speak to a lady, let alone your superior?"

The smirk continued as it latched its hand on the hood and pulled it down. Each one of the xiaolin worriers gasped rhythmically as shock rose in their already fearful bodies. But the figure wasn't hideous, as they had expected; she was actually quite beautiful. She was, but her aura was tainted beyond any other. Long golden, silky hair tied back in a perfect ponytail and had red highlights flowed down from under her tattered hood. On her smooth, pale skin was a red marking under her eye. It was the eyes though that truly scarred them. They were piercing, maniacal crimson eyes. They gleamed, seemingly cutting into their skin with no mercy or remorse.

The young dragon of water took no time pressing an attack. He ran silently across the little barren land that separated the two followed shortly by the dragon of fire.

"Tornado strike, water!"

Water spurt violently from his tiny hands, a rushing river of chi energy shot directly at the girl.

"Jubablie flip, fire!"

Fire bursts from her wrists and ankles, engulfing her hands and feet. She flipped high into the air creating fiery circles behind her and flinging great burning fireballs at this strange girl.

She closed her eyes lightly, preparing for the impact. Or so it seemed. At the last moment she ducked down low to the ground, avoiding the water blast. Then she rose and moved sideways, just barely dodging the streaks of fire that charged past her. All they saw after that was the crimson eyes before the girl ran like a shadow towards Omi and Kimiko. In one fail swoop she grabbed their faces harshly flinging them backwards then pulling them forward and into the air. The two screamed and twitched just like Jack had done a few minutes before. Clay and Rai just stood in shock as their friends were almost smothered to death before she flung them down and turned towards them, more blood in her eyes than ever. Clay put on a brave face, though he was as petrified as a cat at a doghouse, and ran towards the powerful angle of death. She stood right in his path and looked menacingly at him. Clay jumped high into the air and slammed his foot on the ground.

"Seismic kick, earth!"

The ground rippled like water under his mighty strength, but the girl still didn't move. Even when the ground lifted from its original position and flow up into the air, aiming right at her. Her eyes glow like red lanterns, the ground came racing towards her, she halted it by simply grabbing the nose of the monster like slab of earth. Clays mouth dropped open in disbelief, Rai just stood in the background, unable to move. She grimaced a smile and sent the earth hurtling back at the dragon of earth. As it crashed down on him, he used his strength to bash through it. He didn't notice the girl fly up above the earth and slam her hand down on his face. She hovered in mid-air; the dragon stuck to her hand. Like the others before him, he twitched like mad and then went limp. It was like the life was sucked out of them.

She turned to the last dragon, dropped the dragon of earth to the floor and walked towards him. Rai was scarred so much that his legs were frozen to the floor. He couldn't move no matter how much his brain demanded it. He just stopped thinking altogether. Without knowing he went into fighting stance and raced towards the girl. She continued to walk towards him, as though he had never moved. When he was only two feet away from her, she stepped aside and grabbed his collar as he shot by her. She flung him to the wall and pushed hard against him making it impossible for him to move.

"Who are you?"

"My name is unimportant, young dragon of wind. Its what I want that is."

"Why did you do that to them?"

Rai looked towards his fallen comrades but she just clamped her hand on his chin and turned him to face her crimson eyes.

"They attacked me first. So I defended myself."

"You call that defence!"

She pushed him harder against the wall so that a loss rock stabbed into his spine. He whimpered as it dug in deeper.

"Why don't you just finish me off to?"

"There are two reasons that I have spared your sanity. One, I need you to deliver a message."

"What makes you think I will do anything for you!"

She slapped him around the face, harder than anyone had before. Blood tricked from his mouth as he moaned.

"You will deliver the message. Tell your precious master everything that has happened here. Tell him this, what once was good is gone, but it will return for revenge. Remember that. And give him this…"

She reached inside her cloak to reveal a golden pendant, shaped like a bird. It had a red stone embedded in the centre. Golden beads created the chain, which she unhooked from her neck with one hand.

"What's that?"

"If I wanted you to know I would have told you."

Rai looked into her eyes and felt like he should try and resist like the others. But he was numbed by her trance. It was so empty now that she had stopped attacking the others. They were almost emotionless as she starred deeply into his shimmering emerald eyes. She envied those eyes. They were so innocent and free. No hurt, no pain. At least, not like her own.

She looked down to his chest and her face seemed to soften. Her grip loosened slightly, but not enough that Rai could escape from it.

"What was the second reason?"

A smirk cracked her mouth and she looked into his eyes again.

"The second reason is… I like you more than the others. You take demands well with the right persuasion. And I'm not afraid to admit the fact that you're also a lot more good-looking."

A chill of pure ice ran down Rai's spine as she slipped her ruby lips around his tanned ones. He felt a smile curl on them as the rubbed against his own. He felt himself relaxing into the passionate kiss, though he was unwilling. She felt this weakness in him began to lick up and down his bottom lip and felt him tingle all over. Just when he was going to concede to her will, he pulled away. He turned his face away from her but he could still feel her evil smirk and could still taste her tainted lips.

"Don't forget, and I will be back for this."

She lifted the pendant that was now around Rai's neck and released him. She must have put it around his neck when he was distracted. She gave him one last warning glance and then walked away. She then stopped and her aura started to glow. Feathery giants spread from her back and lifted her off the ground. In a flash of dark light, she was gone, all but a trail of black feathers behind her.

the reason i just split the 2 chapies up if you are wondering is... i couldnt think of anyother title for them. oh yes, and seeing as negative zero made a good point about horror fics i hav now changed the genre. beside i dont think it will suit this fic anyway. bye for now! GOODLUCK!
