Chapter 7: Monster Unleashed Part 2
A week and four days. That was it. Sheena woke up early that day; she had slept 19 hours yesterday. She was relaxed though until…
"Ahhhhhhh!" a voice screamed.
"Try throwing that at it!" another voice yelled.
A plate of eggs hit Sheena in the face and it was so very early in the morning ti was still dark and…
"WHAT THE HECK! WHO THREW BREAKFAST AT ME!"
A small voice made up a quick lie, "Um…Room Service!"
"THAT IS DEFIENTLY NOT IT!" Sheena yelled, throwing the plate outside the doorway.
"Ow, that hurt!" Rubyi yelled as she stopped and looked at Sheena. Emereld came up shortly after.
"What are you doing here…" Crimsonia said blankly as she woke up.
"Well…" Rubyi replied holding up her hands in an embarrassed look.
A huge mouse and its fellow huge mice companions ran through the building.
"They chased us right out of our house!" Emereld yelled, "Although, it's not really our house…"
"Or Seles…" Rubyi said, doing the hand thing again. An arrow flew by her head.
"It's my house now!" Seles yelled, "I need more research! I can't have my maids running off!"
"Um, Seles…" Emereld stuttered.
"Don't interrupt me!" Seles yelled, "As I was saying…"
"You might want to…" Rubyi said.
"What is it with you maids today let me speak!"
"Okay…" Rubyi said, her voice rising to an almost-laugh.
"Why are you making that voice? Now, AS I WAS--" The poor pink haired woman was cut off by a huge rat. It ran over her, followed by the other rats.
"HEY!" Seles yelled. The rat turned around. Seles got a panicky look, "You idiot! Take this! Astral Arrow!"
Light blue beams of luminosity shot out of Seles' bow. They were of the star element, and they soared into the enemy, one hitting it between the head. The other rats began to approach.
"Um, good luck!" Seles yelled, running away.
"You can't leave!" Sheena yelled.
"She's right," Emereld yelled, "We can't!" Other rats had flourished from the other side of the hall. A rat swiped at the unexpecting Sheena…
"Ah!" the female ninja screamed, shutting her eyes.
Universa appeared out of nowhere and smacked the rat with the flat of his blade. Sheena opened her eyes as she saw the towering figure of Universa above her.
"Miss Sheena, you are not hurt?"
"No, I'm okay…"
Crimsonia whirled her blade in a strange fashion, "Take this! New Technique! Crazed Sickle!"
Ice followed Crimsonia's blade as she slashed at one of the rats. The ice stayed put, holding the rat in place. Crimsonia brought the hand with the rapier in it up so it covered her mouth. She focused some power and released it, as a shining scythe came and slashed on of the rats. It collapsed. Universa stared at Sheena for a minute, who didn't notice. She then looked up at him and smiled. He smirked. The two then slashed the remaining rats.
"Are we through here?" Sheena asked.
Seles was about to yell, but was run over by Topazen, who yelled, "What? I can't look at birds in the park anymore!" Everyone gave her a strange look as she ran by, then saw the reason. Many colossal birds were storming the area. Sheena stabbed by throwing one of Rubyi's spare daggers. It hit dead on.
"Bird enemies…" Universa mumbled, "They should be most prone to arrows or wind magic. Try that." (A/N: Fire Emblem Logic!)
Sheena Summoned Sylphs and they vanquished two of the birds instantly. Then, the Sylphs were knocked back with feathers as sharp as daggers.
"Damn!" Rubyi yelled, "Trinity Song! Arrow!"
Three arrows of light pierced the target. Then, bows mysteriously appeared, for the people to fight with. Crimsonia shot at a fast pace, and she and Seles killed three in succession. There was one left, which Topazen stabbed to death.
"Now what?" Crimsonia asked, as the earth began to shake.
A huge, black, dark, powerful, and deadly-looking demon appeared. Seles' strange acquaintance Oshitm appeared, "Madame Seles! More monsters!" Small shadows crossed his path.
"Damn you! Energilia Spark!" Huge white feathers crossed the hall, shooting immense rays at the targets. They vanquished in one blast.
"That's…!" Crimsonia yelled.
More shadows appeared. Oshitm yelled, "Retribution!" The enemies were afflicted with random status aliments. Seles watched, smirking.
"He's so powerful…" Sheena muttered.
"Eriez Gon!" Oshitm yelled, "Universal Spheres!" Huge warps in space ripped the enemies to shreds. More shadows came through both ends of the halls. Sheena ran to kill some.
"Please leave this to me." Oshitm said calmly, "Ash Sparkle!" White ash rained randomly, and the enemies were suddenly suffering white fire appearing on them.
"Who is this!" Crimsonia yelled, "His mana should be depleted!"
"Sapphire Tear! Emerald Tear!" Oshitm yelled in quick succession. The monsters that came an inch around the hall were sliced up with blue gems that fell upon them, the green gems that followed suit. Oshitm checked the surroundings and said, "It's okay. No more demons are here."
"The way he fights…" Crimsonia muttered as Oshitm ran off to deal with the huge demon, "It's not normal…"
"Indeed." Universa agreed.
Sheena ran to go help. However, Crimsonia stopped her, "Don't! Do you really want to deal with somebody like THAT!" She pointed to the window.
He was there. Standing Still. A huge beam of light struck the demon, a dome emerging from it. The light completely pulverized the demon until it died. Angel feathers finished the move.
"Who…" Crimsonia said, "Or WHAT for that matter…is he!"
"He's my hired lawyer." Seles stated, "Pretty cheap for a person like that wouldn't you say?"
"How much did you pay?" Sheena asked.
"Excuse me?" Seles questioned.
"HOW MUCH DID YOU PAY!"
Seles looked at the towering Sheena. The female ninja felt something. Unbearable. Like Mithos, but no…it couldn't have been. But those shards…
"Seven million, sixty-two thousand, nine-hundred and 25 Gald."
7/6/925.
Wait a minute…
7/62/925
Didn't Mithos say…
"Martel's birth date." Sheena said.
"What?" Seles asked.
"Martel's time of birth." Sheena stated, "Mithos, he told me so. When I was about to get sucked into that hole with Zelos…He told me so."
"Sheena, are you feeling alright?" Crimsonia asked.
"I'm fine!" Sheena yelled. Mithos' thoughts had burned her when she was about to get pulled into that vortex so long ago. That remained.
Raine came bustling in. Kratos and Genis seemed hugely unsettled and Presea seemed…afraid.
Sheena looked very pale all of a sudden. Raine bit her lip, knowing what she was thinking. One night, after it was all over, and the people who saved Sylvarant were together. Sheena told them all what she heard. Everyone confessed what Mithos had said to them in particular. Sheena looked very pale. She then collapsed. Raine immediately threw her lip out of her mouth. If her jaw was stretchy, it would have hit the floor. Universa caught Sheena.
"It looks like she hasn't been sleeping enough." Raine immediately concluded, (She was on edge today, ever since she saw Oshitm.) "Has she been getting enough sleep?"
"Yes." Crimsonia said, panicky, "She slept a lot yesterday!"
"I am going to need you to calm down, Crimsonia."
"It seems she has a mana clot." Universa stated, looking at a faint glowing spot on Sheena's arm.
"You're not serious!" Raine yelled.
"I am afraid I am certain. Miss Professor…"
"Universa, is it because of stress!"
"I am certain of this, too!"
"Dammit, what's wrong with you, hiring a lawyer like that!" Raine screamed, slapping Seles, "He can kill you in a fell swoop! Seles Wilder, you deserved to be punished!" Another hard slap. "Dammit…a mana clot…a mana clot!"
"What is this 'mana clot' ?" Crimsonia questioned.
"A mana clot is condensed mana, stuck in one place of the body system. It is much like a clot of blood, but much more hard to heal."
Presea, Genis, and Kratos were deathly silent.
"You're a healer, aren't you!" Topazen yelled, as her other missing sisters came in, "Can't you just use like a Resurrection!"
"it's not like those are cake to pull off!" Raine yelled, slapping Topazen, (She was in a highly strict mood today, regretting those she couldn't save.) "Anyways, I've researched this. We have to remove it…by using knife skills and healing arts combined.
Rubyi looked at Raine with surprise, "You've got to be kidding me…"
"I'm afraid not."
