Chapter four- An Icy Fight For Their Lives
-Hiei, Shiei, and Watarimones stood there waiting for the creature to come. As the creature started closing in on the group, they all got into fighting positions. About two minutes pasted and then a cloud of dust appeared. The amount of energy they sensed from the creature was far more than they had excepted…they knew this was going to be a fight for their lives…-
The three stare at the cloud of dust, waiting for it to clear so they could see who or what they had to fight. There was a gust of cold wind that blew the dust away and sent a chill down upon the group. The three stared as the dust cleared. When the dust cleared standing before them was a young lady with blue hair. Her eyes were an icy blue color and she looked to have no soul.
Watarimones stared at her with wide eyes and said, "That is Tsumetai, the ice spirit. She's princess Kagetsu's guardian spirit…but something's wrong with her…she seems possessed by some evil force…" Hiei and Shiei stared at Tsumetai and said, "So she's suppose to be good?" Watarimones nodded and said, "Yes, all we have to do is knock her out…as easy as that may sound it is not…take caution…she's very strong…"
Hiei and Shiei looked at Tsumetai and said, "Ice element is she? Hn! An easy task this will be…" Hiei and Shiei ran in opposite directions and shoot blasts of fire energy at Tsumetai. Tsumetai dodged and sent beams of ice energy at Hiei and Shiei. Shiei dodged but Hiei got hit and went flying across the field toward Shiei.
Hiei landed right in front of Shiei. Shiei looked down at Hiei and saw he was wounded badly. Hiei had gotten cuts and scrapes all over his arms and legs. Shiei stared at Hiei and said, "Hiei…are you ok?" Hiei stood up and nodded and then there was a long pause. Shiei stared at Hiei and Hiei said, "What? Why are you staring for?" Shiei looked at the ground and said, "Let me heal your wounds…" Hiei looked at Shiei strangely and said, "Hn! I'm fine…I don't need your healing powers…" Hiei then jumps back into the fight. Shiei growls and mumbles, "Stubborn demon…why do I bother…"
Hiei charged in readying another fire attack. Tsumetai saw Hiei coming and sent another beam of ice at him. Hiei tired to dodge the beam, but he got hit and flew across the field again. Hiei got up, but he could barely stand and was too weak to dodge any attacks. Tsumetai then sent a very strong beam of ice energy at Hiei. Hiei just stood perfectly still; even though he didn't want to die…he knew he was too weak to move. Just as the beam was about to hit Hiei, Shiei came running in and pushed Hiei out of the beam's path.
Shiei stood up and stared down at Hiei. Hiei looked up at Shiei and Said, "What did you do that for?" Shiei glared slightly and said, "You were too weak to move…if I hadn't pushed you out of the way, that beam would have most likely killed you!" Hiei glared and said, "I was not too weak! I would have beaten her if hadn't pushed me like that!" Shiei growled and said, "You were too weak to move and you know it!" Hiei stood up and said, "See look…if I was too weak then I won't be able to stand…" (5…4…3…2…1…) Hiei collapsed and fell into Shiei's arms.
Shiei blinked and put Hiei gently on the ground. Shiei stared at Hiei and said, "Stubborn little demon!" Shiei continued to stare at Hiei and held back her tears while saying, "Why didn't you just let me heal you wounds when I asked?" Shiei looked over at Tsumetai and then over at Watarimones. Watarimones looked at Shiei and noticed her eyes had changed from crimson red to blood red.
Shiei glared at Tsumetai and charged at her with a fire attack. Watarimones walked over to Hiei and put his hand over Hiei's head. Watarimones' hand glowed a whitish color and Hiei's wounds were healed. Watarimones then looked up and watched the fight.
Shiei kept sending at Tsumetai. Tsumetai would dodge and send an ice attack at Shiei. No matter how many times Shiei got hit, she still got up. Shiei and Tsumetai continued to fight while Watarimones watched. About ten to fifteen pasted and Hiei woke up. Watarimones noticed Hiei and said, "So you're finally awake…" Hiei looked at Watarimones and said, "Where's Shiei?" Watarimones pointed behind Hiei and said, "She's over there fighting against Tsumetai…they have been fighting like that for about fifteen minutes now…"
Hiei turned around and stared at the fight. Hiei then noticed Shiei's eye color and said, "How long have her eyes been blood red?" Watarimones stared at the fight and said, "They changed right after you collapsed…so about fifteen minutes…" Hiei watched the fight with a concerned look on his face. Shiei then got hit and landed on the ground… and didn't get up…
Hiei stared at Shiei and his eyes went slightly wide. Hiei ran toward Shiei while saying telepathically, "Shiei…do you have enough energy for one more attack?" Shiei didn't move from her spot but said telepathically, "Yes I have enough energy for one more attack…" Hiei ran over to Shiei and Shiei stood up next to Hiei. Hiei and Shiei's spirit auras appeared and the two sent a massive fire attack at Tsumetai.
Hiei turned to Shiei and put his hand over her head. Hiei hand glowed blue and he revived Shiei's spirit energy. Shiei blinked and stared confused like at Hiei. Hiei and Shiei looked at Tsumetai as she stood up. Her eyes looked gentle and she went over to Watarimones. Watarimones stared at Tsumetai and Tsumetai said, "I'm sorry for my actions… My assistance is available if you need it…" Tsumetai then handed Watarimones a light blue whistle and said, "If you need me blow that whistle and I will come…"
Tsumetai then disappeared with a gust of cold wind and a flash of light. Watarimones walked over to Hiei and Shiei and said, "We should rest…it's late…about midnight right now." Hiei and Shiei nodded and said, "Good…idea…" Watarimones turned to look left and he said, "There is a mini forest over there…a good place to camp out for the night…"
The three walked toward the forest. When the got to the forest Hiei and Shiei jumped into a tree and Watarimones went into the forest to collect firewood. When Watarimones returned and made the fire he looked up at Hiei and Shiei in the tree. The two had fallen asleep in the tree and looked very peaceful sleeping next to each other. Watarimones made a barrier around the fire so that it still gave off heat but did not spread or go out. Watarimones then sat under a tree and fell asleep…
Chapter four is finished…and no cliffhanger…but I still love the way I ended this chapter…it's so nice don't you love it too? Please don't forget to leave a review so I know what you think of my story so far!
