Never Underestimate a Cherry Blossom

Author's opening notes: I am very sorry for the late update…. I totally ran out of things to write considering I had to think about my other stories! And to top it all off, I lost my planning page…. So now I have to do everything right out of my head….

Ok, we left off where, and were trapped inside a dark abandoned shrine. Lets see what happens next.


Chapter 8: Trapped

/ Jason's and Eric's POV\

"How the bloody hell are we going to get in!" Jason asked

"Im not sure…" Eric responded

"Maybe I could help…." A soft wispy voice rang out to them

"Who are you?" Eric asked

"I am Thanh's shadow sister." Death said

"D-d-d-e-e-ath?" Eric asked in frightened voices

"Hai. But don't be scared…. There is no way I would harm my living sister's friends." Death reassured them.

"Well, how are we going to get in?" Jason asked looking at the large wooden doors

"It would be a difficult task… but seeing that you two are Ragol guardians, it should be no problem now, should it?" Death asked

Eric and Jason just merely nodded back.

"Now, listen carefully." Death ordered as she explained what to do.

/In the dark hole….. Or is it?"\

"OWWWWWW! GET OFF OF ME!" Thanh cried out as Kristie's weight was crushing her

"ARA! GOHMEN NEH!" Kristie apologized getting off of and helping her up.

"Where are we?" Kristie asked as she looked around

"I don't bloody hell know, but wherever we are, we must find out how to get out of here." Thanh said brushing off dirt on her skirt.

"You girls won't be going anywhere." A dark voice echoed throughout the hole

"Nani? What is this magic? I can't move!" Kristie yelled out

"Neither can I!" Thanh cried out

"Well, you shouldn't be moving anyways… Archangels." The voice echoed again

"NOOOOOO! SOMEBODY HELP US!" The girls screamed out as loud as they could

/Outside of the shrine\

A large scream went and echoed throughout the shrine and could be heard from just outside as well.

"We must hurry!" Jason urged

"You tow must turn into your guardian forms, and both, in total sync, must unleash a powerful attack at those doors! Remember, Light conquers ALL! Well, Im an exception." Death said," Now hurry!"

Eric and Jason soon changed into their alter egos and pulled out the signified weapons.

"When I count BACK from 3, you must unleash your attack!" Death said, "3!"

And Eric went and unleashed his attack too soon.

"I SAID BACK! Now try again!" Death said, "3!"

And Eric got ready for his attack.

"2!"

Jason got his attack ready.

"1!"

And they both unleashed a powerful attack. The two techniques soon collided with each other into a much more powerful attack. After a few seconds, the doors were blown into bits as and charged into the shrine.

"I see my dear cousin has come back to my shrine has she not?" the same dark voice rang out

"Eroquin?" Death gasped

"Hai. It is I, Eroquin." Eroquin stepped out of his shadow along with a little girl with long pale blue hair.

"Are these yours?" the girl asked in a very soft voice as Thanh and Kristie were shoved to the ground with their hands tie behind their backs and scarves bond to their mouths so they were unable to speak. They had fearful looks in their eyes and their clothes were covered in lots of dust and dirt.

"HMMMMM! (HELP US!)" The girls tried to say

" Thanh! Kristie!" Jason and Eric yelled out loud

"Sister!" Death cried out

"HMMM! (DEATH!)" Thanh tried to say as she tried to struggle out of her bounds

"I suppose they are yours." Eroquin said, "What should we do Kyoho, my dear daughter?"

"Can I do the honors?" Kyoho asked

"Sure thing my little girl." Eroquin said smiling

"Syaonara!" Kyoho said as a hole appeared beneath the girls as they fell.

"HMMMMMMMMMM! (NOOOOO! HELP US!)" The girls tried to say as they fell. After a few seconds, they were out of sight."

"NO!" Death, and , cried out

"Kyoho, daddy is tired, you handle our intruders, while I talk with your auntie. Later on you can ask why she didn't bring you a gift this time." Eroquin said to his daughter

"Thank you father." Kyoho said pulling out a fan just like had in the battle class, except, Kyoho's is blue with very very long ribbons. No feathers either. Small emeralds were on the edges of the frilled fan and when folded out, it had an image of the great monster, Ogaflow.

"Trespassers are no tolerated here! Trespassers shall be executed." Kyoho said getting into a battle stance.

"Not if we can help it!" Jason yelled as he threw a blizzard of ice crystals at Kyoho but she merely flicked her wrist and a wall of fire appear melting the ice away.

"Tsk tsk tsk. You guys are such pest…" Kyoho said as she lunged for an attack. With a whipped her fan out, swords and water spirits came flying at the two guardians.

"Take this!" Eric yelled as he conjured a whirlwind of blades right at Kyoho

It just grazed her ear as she dodged it.

"Close, but not close enough!" Kyoho said and with another flick, miniature olgaflows came and began marching towards the guardians.

But the two guardians pulled out their weapons and ridded the olgaflows in no time. Then knocked the fan out of Kyoho's hand.

"What!" Kyoho screeched in disbelief. Then she quickly dodged their next attack and pulled out a crystallized sword. And with one swing, knocked and weapons out of their hands.

"Pick up your weapons and throw them at each other. The collision of both weapons will create a new one…" a voice instructed in their heads by telepathy. And ran for their weapons and threw them into each other. The voice was right, it did create a new weapon.

"NANI! THE LANCE OF ICED LIGHT!" Kyoho screamed as the sword and staff fused into a large snow white colored staff with a sphere of light at the bottom and a blade in the shape of the sun at the top. And it targeted Kyoho and flew right at her, striking her in the eye.

"AHHHHHHH! NOOOOO! I WON'T DIE THIS WAY! I WON'T DIE THIS WAY!" Kyoho screamed as she was pinned down to the ground and she pounding her fist into the dirt. Soon, a shower of ice came at her and she shattered and died. The lance defused into the original weapons.

"Why does our battles keep getting harder?" Eric asked

"We are on a quest where everyone in the world would hate us! No duh!" Jason responded

"Lets go find Death and the girls." Eric said sprinting to the door.

/Inner Courtyard\

"I would never help you again after what you have done to my sister!" Death screamed at Eroquin

"Wrong answer!" Eroquin yelled in anger and with a magical force threw her at a wall, "DON'T EVER MESS WITH THE RED BLOOD WOLVES!"

"Never underestimate a cherry blossom!" Jason yelled, barging into the battlegrounds.

"NANI!" Eroquin yelled fending off an attack from sword

"Don't mess with the Cherry Blossoms! Now, where are they!" Eric asked holding his staff close to Eroquin's head

"Im not telling you!" Eroquin said vanishing

"DAMMIT!" Death screamed, "My dear sister!"

"You want them?" Eroquin asked holding onto the ropes bounding and together

"HMMM! HMM! (Please… help us!)" Kristie tried to say

"Let them go!" Jason ordered

"First, give your powers to me!" Eroquin demanded

"HMM! HMMMMMMMMMMM! (DON'T SURRENDER YOUR POWERS!)" Thanh tried to say

"Alright…" Eric gave in, not understanding what Thanh just tried to say

"I SAID DON'T GIVE IN!" Thanh yelled breaking loose from the handkerchief that was bound on her mouth to keep her quiet.

" Thanh!" Eric said stepping back

"Don't give in." Thanh said with a wink before Eroquin bound her with the handkerchief again.

"You, keep you mouth shut!" Eroquin ordered at .

Thanh looks at Kristie , then as if reading each other's minds, they kicked Eroquin in the stomach making him release the ropes letting them free. They then pulled the handkerchief away from their mouths and ran to the guardians' sides to battle as they changed into their alter egos.

"DON'T BLOODY HELL MESS WITH US!" Kristie yelled pulling out a harp. (NOTE: ok, her old one burned right? Well, cuz the harp was made out of wood and then enchanted, she just carved a new one and enchanted it. There, a new battle harp.)

"THIS ISN'T OVER!" Eroquin yelled as he vanished for good and the shrine diminished

"That was one freaky event…" Thanh sighed leaning over trying calm down

'SLAP!'

"HOE!" Thanh cursed loudly holding a hand on her right cheek where a red mark was forming, "WHAT IN THE NAME OF BLUE COSMO IS THAT FOR!"

"You had us worry sick! Going off like that without warning!" Eric yelled

'Really hard punch in the stomach'

"Not our fault! We were practically sleepwalking in the woods! We had absolutely no clue what we were doing! SO, CHILL!" Thanh yelled

"Gohmen." Eric apologized holding her in an embrace

"Gohmen." Thanh apologized returning the hug

"Well, it's almost dawn, lets head back to camp and pack it up." Jason suggested

"Hai." The others agreed


Author's notes: Again, I apologize for the super late update. I kinda had lots of work to do and needed to think of ideas for my other stories. So okay, they have finally freed themselves from the dark shrine with evil magical powers and yadadadada. What is going to happen next? Find out next time… whenever I update.
