Chapter 6: The Realization
'Now remember, Sammy, you need emotion in your words, you just can't say them normally,' Kanta-kun reminded me. I nodded, keeping track of everything he told me. Kanta-kun and I were training, of course, we were training on a dummy, not a real person.
"HA'ROUK!" I screamed. The power started to flow and I felt the hairs on the back of my neck tingling, but still nothing happened. Kanta-kun frowned. He and I were hoping that this was an actual attack that shot out, like Zatch's attack. But no, nothing interesting was happening.
"You think, this attack needs something too?" I inquired. Kanta-kun sighed. Yeah, we both figured it did need something else too. Summoning can be a real bummer when there is nothing TO summon.
'If anything, let's hope that it does help us,' Kanta-kun stated. I knew he felt down, but I felt so bad. Maybe I didn't have enough emotion… maybe, I needed a little boost. I thought down deep inside what made me angry and the thought came up quickly.
'I hate you, KYOHEI!' I screamed in my thoughts. Aloud, I screamed the spell and suddenly, a dark figure shot out of Kanta-kun's mouth and started to constrict the dummy until it vanished into nothing. There wasn't anything left of it that I could recognize. A few moments later, it came back… in pieces.
'W-what happened?' Kanta-kun asked, somewhat shocked. 'Before it didn't work, and now it—it did!'
"I did it! I have enough emotion in me to do this! I do, I do!" I exclaimed happily. Kanta-kun merely smirked and nodded his head. I didn't care if he was mocking me because I DID IT!
'I'm proud of you, Sammy…' he said keeping on his smirk. He sounded like he really meant it! I hugged him happily.
"You sound like you really mean it!" I exclaimed. Kanta-kun pushed me away slightly. I saw his face was tinted a bit pink. Aww, how adorable!
'Hey, hey… you'll ruin my rep,' he stated, dusting himself off. I fell face forward. OF ALL THINGS TO SAY! I saw the slight smile on Kanta-kun's face though and that made me so happy. Why couldn't the book run on happy emotions? I'd be so still at this by now with happy emotions.
'Hmph, good job… punks.'
I looked up to see another Mamodo and a partner. The partner looked kinda cute. He had brown curly hair, somewhat like Tidus's, and striking blue eyes. Although, he looked awfully Korean to me.
"Name's Shim Jin-ho," he said smartly. Bowing slightly in a mocking manner, he looked straight at me. "We're going to defeat you. Right, Yami?"
The Mamodo smirked slightly and nodded. 'Of course… why not?'
'You have to ask the lady first,' Kanta-kun stated, moving ahead of me protectively again. He waved his arm out angrily. 'And she's new to this, leave us alone!'
The other two looked at each other and laughed. Jin-ho smirked evilly and stated, "We don't care."
'Heh, yeah… newbies prove useful practice,' Yami said, grinning. He ran to Kanta-kun and I got ready for the attack.
"KATAR!" Jin-ho shouted and Yami shot out a dark black spiral at Kanta-kun. It hit right on, but Kanta-kun was a LOT stronger than last time, so I didn't worry as much. I pointed at Jin-ho.
"An opening! AN'KAR!"
I heard a loud buzzing noise that was giving me the shivers, and I knew why. Bugs of all shapes and sizes were crawling out of their hiding spaces and charging towards Yami. Yami had an amused look on his face as he saw the bugs charging towards him.
"KATAR!" Jin-ho screamed again and Yami aimed at the bugs. Amazingly, it hit a wide amount of them, but not enough. They crawled on Yami's skin and started to bite and tear at him. Yami screamed in pain and I looked away.
But it wasn't over.
"JYAN!" Jin-ho shouted out. Suddenly, darkness started to swallow up all of the bugs and only Yami was left. I figured that Yami was one who manipulated darkness. Was my second spell a darkness one too? But, Kanta-kun could only summon! Unless… I was dead wrong. Maybe Kanta-kun can't summon, maybe that's just part of something that's bigger. Either way, an idea clicked into my head. I grabbed Kanta-kun and ran.
'What are you doing, Sammy? They're the other way!' Kanta-kun stated angrily. I whispered my plan into his ear and then he frowned. 'That's not going to work.'
"A lot of things aren't going to work, but let's try it. I think I know what your element is now…" I answered. Kanta-kun raised an eyebrow.
'It's summoning, isn't it?'
"No… it's fear."
End of Chapter 6: The Realization
Author's Note: Isn't it cool? I don't summon, but I have the ability to open one's fears and then use it against them. Sweetness.Anyway... someone already has the spell 'Ha'rouk' don't they? I have that feeling and I'm checking that right now. Okay... I guess not. I still think they do. Maybe it's because it's so similar to how the other ones sound... (or maybe because I was thinking of Kiyo saying it once and now I think it's not original).
SutekiStraight-forward feelings are better than none,
Sammy
