Hi everyone! Tenten Kiken Hinamori here. Next chapter is here. Hope you enjoy.
Tenten's POV
"Ok, that world was a bust, but they did need help so it was worth it." I said as I leaned back in my chair. Angela and I were now back in our normal clothes which I now felt better. "Nee-chan! Look at this." Angela called. I turned to see Angela pointing to 5 tiny handprints, each print a different color. "Unholy hell. How did I not see those? You guys kept them there this whole time? I thought you would've taken them off a long time ago." I asked going to the prints. "Of course not." Goofy said. "Why 5 different colors?" Sora asked. "Each color represents what we are. Red shows my sister Suka's passion. Yellow for Angela's optimism. Green is Anna's growth. Black for Sophie's mystery. And blue... blue for loyalty." Tenten said. "I'm guessing blue is you." Sora said. "Yep. I'm loyal to those I care about." Tenten said. "That's true. One time Pete hit Goofy in the head and Tenten attacked him like a rabid cat." Donald said. "Whos Pete?" Sora asked. "Don't ask, you don't wanna know." I said sitting back down in the pilot seat.
"Hey Tenten, I saw your eyes go red earlier, is that because of the demonic blood?" Sora asked. "Huh? When did my eyes go red?" I asked, really confused. "When you kicked Clayton out the tent after he tried shooting the gorilla." Sora answered. "Huh. No, that's not my blood doing that. My eyes have never done that." I said. What's going on? For as long as I can remember, my eyes have never gone red. I'll have to look into this later.
"Huh? Maybe my eyes were playing tricks on me." Sora said shrugging. "Who knows. Anyway, we're arriving at the next world." Donald called. We all looked to see the new world. It looked like a giant Coliseum. "Nee-chan, does this place look familiar to you too?" Angela asked. "Yep. We'll see why soon." I said as Goofy landed the ship. We all got off and looked around. "Hey, wait a minute. I know exactly where we are!" I yelled running inside to find a very familiar satyr. The others followed me in and I was about to say something when the satyr spoke. "Good timing. Give me a hand, will ya? Move that pedestal over there for me. I gotta spruce this place up for the games." he said pointing to a large stone block.
I was about to speak up when Sora actually tried moving it. I sighed and shook my head as Angela giggled. "It's way too heavy." Sora complained. "What?! Too heavy? Since when have you been such a little-" The satyr began as he turned around and stopped. "Oh, wrong guy. What are you doing here?" he asked.
"Hey, Phil. Long time no see." I chuckled. "Kieara?!" Phil yelled. "Wrong. I'm her daughter Tenten, remember?" I asked. "Oh, yea. You look so much like your mother." Phil said. "You know each other?" Sora asked. "Yea. Phil and my mom were friends. Phil even started training us when we were little until something came up and Phil couldn't come anymore." I explained.
"That's right. How is your mother?" Phil asked, making my sister and I freeze and look away sadly. "Kieara and Diran are dead." I could hear Donald whisper. Phi remained silent for a bit before taking Angela's and my hand. "Your mother loved you more than anything and wouldn't want you blaming yourselves." he said gently. Angela and I hugged him. "Thanks, Phil." we said.
"So you were saying something about some games?" I asked. "That's right. The games. Heroes only. So pipsqueak and animals, scram." Phil said. "Phil, they're with us." I said. "Sorry kiddo. I know you can handle a fight, but I don't know about them. Next time. You and Angela can sign up." Phil said. "Maybe next time. We're a team after all. We'll see you later. Tell Herc we said 'Hi' please." I said as we walked out
"You could've joined if you wanted to." Goofy said. "Nah, it wouldn't have been fair to you guys." I said shrugging. We froze hearing a familiar voice. "Rather a stubborn old goat, wouldn't you say?" We turned around and Angela and I froze. "Who are you?" Donald asked. "Flame head!" I growled. "You know him?" Sora asked. "Unfortunately. He's my uncle, not by blood thankfully." I growled.
"It's nice to see you too kid." Hades scoffed then appeared behind Sora. "You wanna get in the games, right? Well then get a load of this." he said making a pass appear. "A pass?" Sora asked in shock. "It's all yours. Good luck kid. I'm pulling for you little shortie." Hades said walking off.
I growled. "He's up to something as normal." Angela nodded. "Let's go join the games!" Sora cheered running back in. We all sweatdropped. "He's such a kid..." I said. We followed him inside. "How did you get this?!" Phil asked in shock. "Can we enter the games now?" Sora asked excitedly. "Well, I guess so. We'll start off with the preliminaries." Phil said. Sora, Donald, and Goofy walked in. "Phil, Hades gave them that pass. He's planning something so keep an eye out." I whispered to him. He nodded and we followed the boys.
Sora's POV
This was gonna be great! Now we can prove to ourselves that we're heroes. Soon, monsters came out and we started fighting. Well, except for Angela, she sat out. According to Tenten, she doesn't like fighting a lot. Round by round we fought, defeating more and more heartless each time. After a bit, Phil told us to rest. He even congratulated us on our fighting and that he wished someone was here to watch us. "Who?" I asked. "Our cousin Hercules. He's super strong and really kind. You'll love him." Tenten said. "He's also a true hero." Phil said.
"Quit it. These guys are heroes too. You're just too blind to see that." Tenten said flicking his head and walked back into the arena. "Quit acting like your mother!" Phil yelled. "Nope. Because my mom was my true hero." Tenten said looking back to us then walked into the arena. "She's more and more like her mother every day... She would be so proud of Tenten." Phil said. "You knew her mom that well?" I asked. "Kieara and Athena were best friends they were like sisters. Enough past talk, get out there." he said and we ran onto the arena.
We faced more enemies and soon were facing a boy named Cloud. Or at least we were going to until Tenten held up her arm. "Let me handle this one on my own." She said. "Are you sure?" I asked worriedly. Tenten just nodded. We walked off the arena and sat down. From here, I could easily get a good look at Tenten. After Wonderland, she started leaving her ponytail out her hat, so now you could easily tell that she was a girl. Her hair had looked brown in Traverse Town, but now out in the light, her hair looks red. Even from here, I could see how beautiful her eyes were. They're blue, but they look as if they're a mix of 2 different blues. Maybe sky blue mixed with an ocean blue, which is gorgeous! She was sadly still wearing boy clothes, so I could barely see her figure, but I could tell she was fit. The one thing that always catches my eye for some reason, is the scars on her arms, legs, and neck. Just what has she been through?
Tenten broke her weapon into hand scythes and began the battle with Cloud. This battle was intense as hell. They attacked, countered, dodged and moved with such speed and strength, it was nearly impossible to follow, but soon Cloud was knocked down. Tenten panted as she went to help him up but she was suddenly crushed by a huge 3 headed dog?!
"Tenten!" I yelled running to help her but I stopped when Angela yelled, "Cerberus! Get off them now!" The giant dog obeyed and got off, holding its 3 heads down in shame. "You are such a bad boy! You know better than to hurt people like that!" Angela fussed. This shocked me. Angela, this timid young girl, was fussing at a giant dog as if it was a puppy. I ran to Tenten and helped her up. "Well, that was surprising." she groaned cracking her back. She helped Cloud by healing him then went to Cerberus. "Sit!" She ordered. Cerberus sat down in an instant. She then dug into her backpack and pulled out a giant red ball. "Look what I've got~" she called. Cerberus stuck out his tongues and wiggled his tail excited. "You want it? You want it?" she asked moving it around. Cerberus followed the ball excitedly. "Go get it!" Tenten yelled tossing the ball super far. Cerberus chased after it.
"You sure haven't changed." A voice laughed. We looked to see a man that was extremely muscular, with broad shoulders and a comparatively thin waist. He wearing orange-brown armor that ends in a sort of metal skirt. His armor does not extend to his arms, nor to most of his legs. He wears a brown belt around his waist with a gold emblem with the symbol of Zeus printed on it. His sandals are knee-high and have cross-shaped straps and are brown, as are two wristbands he also wears. He has a reddish-brown headband tied around his forehead, pushing back his rust-colored hair, save for one bang that falls over it.
"Herc!" Tenten and Angela yelled tackling him into a hug. For some really odd reason, I feel jealous seeing Tenten hugging another man. "Guys, this is our cousin, Hercules, we call him Herc for short. Herc, these are our friends, Sora, Donald, and Goofy." Tenten said. "Nice to meet you. Man, I haven't seen you 2 since you were little. But, weren't there 5 of you?" Herc asked. "We're still looking for them. We got separated." Tenten said. "That sucks. Well, let's go into the lobby, Phil has something to say." Herc said. "We'll catch up in a sec." Tenten said as Donald Goofy and I walked in. Phil was standing on a pedestal as he began to read a speech. After a bit, Tenten and Angela joined us.
"Thus I hereby dub thee junior heroes and confer upon thee full rights and privileges to participate in the games. Further-" Phil stated until, "Hey, what do you mean junior heroes?" Donald asked. "You rookies still don't understand what it takes to be a true hero." Phil said.
"Neither do you. Being a hero isn't about the title, Phil. It's about your heart. These 3 have more heart than most 'heroes'." Tenten said. "Tenten, it's ok. We'll prove ourselves in the games when they start back up. We should go though." I said walking out.
Tenten's POV
I stayed back. "If Angela and I hadn't been here, you would've woren Cerberus down and let them think they took him down on their own, wouldn't you?" I asked, not looking at Herc. "Sorry, but yes. They wouldn't have-" Herc began. "Don't underestimate these guys Herc, They're stronger than they look." I said walking out. I found the others talking with Cloud. I walked up to hear him say, "Don't lose sight of your light." He walked past me. "Sometimes, it takes the right person to fill your heart with light." I whispered as he walked past. "Alright, Let's head back to Traverse Town to stock up." I said. The others nodded and we boarded the ship and took off.
That's chapter 5. If you liked it, please give me a review. Have a great day everyone.
