DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN NEOPETS!
Chapter 4
Unexpected Surprises or Unwanted?
Rei had dropped her things after thinking a lot. Then she realized something else.
"It's my dress!" Rei said loudly not knowing how silent it was and how loud her voice was, so Hiro was a little startled.
"What? The dress that Queen Fyora gave you?" Hiro said putting his hands on her shoulders.
"Yes, I remember my Aunt saying that this dress will help me somehow when I need to control my powers. I think it can block my evil powers and let my good ones work. That explains why I didn't make a monster when we were at the ball. But, I made that snake appear. Maybe it was only surprised emotions that seeped through or something. My good feelings of having some fun and happiness were my good feeling so my powers did something good. Which was-"
"Was when you got Isca and Garin to realize that they like each other. You have another power besides destruction and repairing and controlling the elements around you, you can make people see that they are in love with each other." Hiro said finishing her sentence.
"Lets go ask Taelia what material this dress is made out of. Then we can make you some new clothes from that material and you wouldn't have to have those rotten powers." Hiro said tugging at Rei's arm. She didn't move and inch, Hiro tried again and she still didn't move.
"Rei come on, you can get rid of your Evil powers and help save your aunt. Rei I thought you wanted to stop your powers." Hiro said letting go of her arm.
"Hiro, you know me better than anyone. It's true that I want to get rid of these powers but then I wouldn't know how to fully control my dark emotions if I block them from working. I'll train first with them then I'll have Taelia make me a new outfit. But for now we should train for me to learn more about it." Rei said picking up her clothes and walking towards the bathroom. Hiro sat on his bed waiting for Rei, Hiro looked at the shield leaning on the wall. "Where in the world did she get one of those"? He thought but was interrupted with the sound of the bathroom door opening. Rei came out like always looked like with her outfit.
"You are wondering where I got that shield aren't you?" Rei said walking towards Hiro.
"Yeah, those aren't very cheap, did you get it from someone?" Hiro said patting a spot on the bed for her to sit on.
"I got it from Isca. She said I would need it later when we fight Jhudora. She's right but I still need more training I mean controlling my powers. You remember that huge flame I made that day right?" Rei asked.
"Well yeah it was huge and practically in front of my room."
"I felt the need to make it bigger and bigger but then I went past my expectations and made it almost as large as the Castle here. I know how to make things on a large scale, and now that I've confirmed that I know about it, I can use my elementist skills to do some damage on that wretched Faerie." Rei said balling her fists, the fire in her eyes was clearly visible, literally. Hiro noticed and took her hands into his.
"Rei, I don't know too much about your powers but I know that you can make them with raged emotions. Don't think about it right now, for now you've got to see what I can do in the battle field. You are my opponent and I am yours. Show me what you can do with a sword." Hiro said standing up and bringing her up as well.
"Thanks oh and by the way…"
"What?"
"I am so gonna kick your BUTT!" Rei said running towards the training ground.
"Hey wait! You cheated!" Hiro blurted out as he ran after her.
"I thought you were the best warrior, you shouldn't be calling me a cheater like a whiny little BABY!" Rei yelled as they arrived at the grounds.
"AND I'M NOT A BABY EITHER!" Hiro yelled making Rei do nothing but laugh. Her laughing made the clouds disappear and the sun shine on her and Hiro's battle. They both struck a pose. Rei made a sword from the elemental metal she could control and Hiro took out his own.
"Rules are that we can't kill each other and I can't use my alchemy or elemental skills." Rei said seriously with a smile across her face.
"Of course." Hiro said returning the smile.
"And one other…" Rei said running towards Hiro with intense speed. "…don't hold back!"
"Not to worry, I didn't plan on it my dear." Hiro said dodging.
"You know drama doesn't really work for you, maybe a little action will drive up the meter!" Rei said jumping in the air and landing firmly on the ground in front of Hiro. "Think fast." Rei said quickly as she took a swing at Hiro.
"Think again miss princess." Hiro said taking a swing at her from behind. Rei dodged it made Hiro fall on his face.
"Miss princess? You really are thinking fast to think of that lame tease of a name." Rei said putting her foot on his chest so he couldn't move.
"Yes, maybe loser will fit just as good." Hiro said flipping Rei up in the air. She caught the air current and landed on the opposite of Hiro.
"Yeah right, in your dreams." Rei said while dodging Hiro's moves.
"In my dreams I'm not fighting against you, I'm winning against you!" Hiro said taking a swing at her legs.
"The only weapon you're really using is your mouth. Like I said before, this is a match to see each other's powers not to kill each other." Rei said as she disappeared from Hiro's sight.
"Where'd you go!" Hiro said looking all around in circles.
"Too late." Rei jerked him forward and she sat on his back holding him down.
"And the Winner is-" Rei laughed and got up, imitating a bell. "ME! Ding Ding Ding!"
"Gees, no one has ever beaten me." Hiro said rubbing his head.
"That's because you are trained to kill off Jhudora's warriors in under a few seconds. You haven't actually fought a battle through and through." Rei said.
"True but so are you, Taelia said you could kill off 300 slug monsters in under 10 seconds."
"With my powers, without the use of my powers I can only take 100 down in 10 minutes." Rei said.
"Well that's still pretty good, I mean I can only take down about 40 in 25 minutes." Hiro said rubbing his arms.
"Really, then you need more training because even though I was holding back you still got hurt." Brushing off her arms.
"What! I thought you said no holding back!" Hiro yelled while walking with Rei down the hall to his room.
"I said that to you. I never said anything about me holding back." Rei said opening the doors.
"But, but, oh whatever." Hiro said sitting down on his bed.
"You should change your clothes, you'll dirty up your bed." Rei said going into the closet changing.
"You're not my mom you know." Hiro whined.
"I know that, it's just…" Rei said coming out of the closet in another pair of clothing she got from Taelia. "…you're clothes are covered in dirt and the grounds we were fighting in used to be an old dump site until they moved it to happy acres."
"Oh yeah, come to think about it, it did stink a little, okay I'll change." Hiro said getting up fast and practically running for the closet.
"And I'll clean your sheets." Rei said. She knew the real reason he wanted to change, he wanted to get out of those clothes because he smelled nasty and having friends who like girls, he knows that girls don't like a smelly boy. She got his sheets washed and went back to his room to find Hiro on the bed whining in pain.
"What's wrong now?" Rei said coming up to him and dropping his sheets on his face.
"Bruises really hurt a few minutes after you get them." Hiro said taking off the sheets and tossing them behind his head.
"Oh you're such a baby, here." Rei lifted him up and set his head on her lap. Rei thought about healing Hiro with tremendous power and in a few seconds she had healed him. She can think to do something now. "There, you feel any better?" Rei asked while streaming her fingers though his short dirty-blonde hair. Hiro was just laying there on her lap blushing.
"Yeah, I feel better. A lot better thanks to you." Hiro said slowly falling asleep.
"Your welcome." Rei said as she leaned back on the bedpost and fell asleep from a tiring match with Hiro.
