Disclaimer: I own nothing…..so sad…..
So how was everyone's Thanksgiving? Good I hope. X.x I'm stuffed…I gots turkey for a month! And then next month….CHRISTMAS TAMALES! heck yes…
oh yea, special thanks to mitziginget for your reveiw. The other chapter was a "im tired and i need to write something" story so i wasn't exactly thinking. hee hee. But i one thing for sure is that i think it was kind of cool to have Yumie and Yumiko talk to each other. Yumiko seems to get in trouble for Yumie's actions so i thought it would be cool. okie dokie?
Anyway.this chapter takes place right after chapter one.
On wit da fic
Just like Yumie had planned, she fell asleep on the plane ride to…um…well she didn't know, she wasn't paying attention as her partner scrambled in her room trying to explain things in such a hurry.
Heinkel looked next to her at the sleeping nun/berserker; it wasn't until this morning she found out that Yumie and Yumiko really did understand eachother now. Unlike the on going bickering the two had when Heinkel first met her…er…them…
Overall, it took Heinkel a long to time to get used to the fact that she was talking to two people and not one.
"Miss Heinkel, we are about to land in southern France" the intercom blared, the Australian woman sighed and put her seatbelt on.
"Yumie vake up" she said, slightly poking on her partner's head. Yumiko mumbled in response and dropped her head on Heinkel's shoulder; she silently thanked God that she had her coffee and patience.
"Yumie…" she tried again with warning in her voice, usually she wouldn't challenge Yumie but since they were on a plane they took her katana away.
"Heinkel…" the nun yawned loudly and reached in her pocket before opening her eyes," Where are we?"
"Yumiko?"
The Asian nun took out her glasses and gently placed them in front of her eyes before looking up from Heinkel's shoulder innocently.
"Vill you varn me vhen you two switch like that?" she grumbled and moved her shoulder around, giving Yumiko the sign to get off. Yumiko smiled a bit and sat up straight putting her seatbelt on.
"Yumie doesn't remember what you told her about the mission, so what's going on?" she asked.
"Vell, our lovely boss sent us here to investigate yet another cult"
"Another one? Where are these cults coming from?"
"Not sure, but this one is a bit more serious. Powerful witchcraft is involved here along vith an army to back it up though its more like a 'obey me or die' situation. Ve're pretty sure it's a vampire but ve von't know until ve get there"
Yumiko nodded and waited for the plane to land.
From plane, to foot, to helicopter to foot again; this was a very long trip for the two agents of section 13. Heinkel had gotten more coffee on their wait for the helicopter, keeping her up the whole way unlike her partner, who slept every chance she got.
Finally the helicopter landed in a forest that was supposedly deserted but unfortunately for the two girls, the helicopter had to land somewhat far away from where the cult was being held to avoid attention.
Yumiko received the map from the pilot and instructions to contact them when they were done while Heinkel took out their bag of supplies for their walking trip, which was only Yumie's katana, a few guns with clips of silver and some water with the occasional snack. It was going to be a very long hike.
"Ready?" Heinkel asked, hauling the bag over her shoulder and tossing the sword to her partner. Yumiko caught it and smiled sweetly. A sword and a smile like that did not mix in Heinkel's eyes, so she laughed a bit.
"Let's go"
Luckily, the two weren't trudging through thick forest the entire way as they had thought. The cult that rested here were kind enough to leave a trail along with tribal heads on pikes, this was an obvious indication that they were close to their destination.
Yumiko and Heinkel exchanged glances before stuffing the map back into the bag, which now contained three empty water bottles and several empty chip bags.
As the two continued on the trail, night fell quickly and just to make things worse, the very second the sun disappeared behind the trees, the tribal heads burst into flames making torches that lit the path of the trail.
As a reflex, Heinkel and Yumiko met back to back with guns ready and sword to be drawn. True Yumiko had no idea what she was doing, but Yumie was somewhat aware of their surroundings and can be easily switched.
Looking around nervously for the source that set the pikes on fire, Heinkel and Yumiko slowly stood apart from each other's back. There was no possible way that there was some kind of electrical surge of any kind and there wasn't a soul in sight to set them off, even if there was anyone, who could've done them all at the same time?
Magic of course. But can a vampire do this?
Yumiko gulped silently pleading to switch off with Yumie.
Yumie please! This is scary……wuss…
"Ve should keep going…" Heinkel said softly, Yumiko nodded and kept the sword close to her as they continued.
With torches on the trail, orange light illuminated their path but that wasn't all that helped them guide their way.
Yumiko poked her partner on the shoulder and pointed upward at the smoke that rose from the trees, that and the sound of…groaning?
Before either of them could ask, a large group of people came from ahead of the trail towards them in an awkward manner.
"Ghouls…" Heinkel growled, and reached into her coat for her clips of silver bullets.
"Vake Yumie up, quickly" she said and loaded her pistols.
Yumiko nodded and closed her eyes.
A second later, the glasses came off and the sword was unsheathed.
Yumie looked back at her partner only to find that she got a head start and was already blowing heads off. The beserker grinned like a maniac as she readied to attack until she was stopped.
"Vait!" Heinkel cried out with the little time she had to reload," Go find the host! It has to be close by! Quickly!"
As soon as the gun was loaded, she unloaded them on the deranged ghouls again. Yumie was already off the trail, running around the crowd of ghouls to find the host. Her best chance was the source of the large fire they had seen earlier but she had to be quick, ghouls were easy to take care of but it would be a matter of time before Heinkel ran out of bullets.
Keeping her eyes on the dark colored smoke, Yumie ran with strange stealth and speed she learned from her training in Japan. Teachings from home were something that she refused to forget and Yumiko agreed.
Finally she reached the source of the fire and stopped dead in her tracks at the clearing.
"You've got to be kidding me…"
The sight that was before the beserker would've made Yumiko pass out.
The trees that surrounded the circular clearing were over shadowed in an orange light that came from the hundreds off candles that surrounded the symbol of the devil. The pentagram was written in blood on the grass, it looked like it was giving off an evil glow as the vampire host sat in the middle grinning at Yumie like she was dinner. But looking at all the discarded bodies and organs on the floor, it would seem that Yumie would just be desert.
"Good evening, agent of the Vatican" he grinned, flashing his blood covered fangs and stood up.
Yumie immediately noticed that this was not a normal vampire, this one had an evil aura surrounding it, the kind one would find on a witch or warlock. Perhaps this vampire was once a warlock of some kind? Well, Yumie doesn't exactly care about now though.
"I think you've caused enough trouble tonight, prepare to die" Yumie growled and readied her sword, easily ignoring the organs that were being stepped on.
"Ha! Don't make me laugh. I've been harvesting power for months! You don't stand a chance against m…" the vampire was rudely interrupted when Yumie sighed loudly. Through all her years working for Section 13...she really hated vampires that monologue.
"…shut up and fight!" she growled and ran towards him with her sword swinging around wildly.
The vampire's eyes widened in surprise at first then quickly dodged every one of her attacks. Neither of them bothered carefully stepping away from the body parts or more importantly, the candles. Soon a few of the candles were knocked over and set the random body parts on fire.
"crap…" Yumie growled and stopped her frantic attacks. She finally noticed the fire by smelling the burning flesh. The clearing was filled with thick black smoke, Yumie was soon forced to cover her mouth to stop gagging from the ugly smell but find a way to breath before the vampire could attack.
(…im getting kinda sick writing this…lol)
"Time to end this!"
Yumie turned around and found herself face to face with the vampire.
There was no time to react…actually, it felt like time had slowed down as she could only watch the vampire's glowing hand extend out to her face and use some kind of force to push her backwards.
But that wasn't the problem; as the strange force push her it felt like it was literally pushing something out of her.
For that brief moment her entire body seemed to be in a state of shock and shut down. She couldn't breath or move, her bones felt like they were being shattered. As if her physical pain was bad, mentally was even worse, like a certain part of it was being ripped out of her head.
And all this about as literal as possible.
Finally she hit the ground and passed out cold on the floor but still alive.
"W-what! Impossible!" the vampire screamed in rage. Looking back at the large flames behind him, he decided against finishing off the crazy nun and turned around to take off until he found himself staring into the smallbarrel of a pistol with a silver bullet with his name on it.
Heinkel closed the cell phone in her right hand and put it back in her jacket, she didn't say anything but looked back the unconscious Yumie on the floor…and another body not to far away.
"….mein Gott…" she murmured, turning her attention back on the vampire, slightly pushing the gun harder on his forehead.
"Vat did you do?" she growled.
"I'm not telling you bi…" once again Heinkel interrupted him when she took out her other gun and shot him in the arm.
"Ow! Fuc…"
"ANSWER ME!"
"Damnit, I was suppose to separate her damn could from her body but it didn't work! Happy now?"
"NO! Put them back!"
"……………….them?" he said slowly.
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Before either of them could answer, someone screamed bloody murder over the roar of fire followed by terrified cries for help.
Heinkel didn't hesitate and let go of the vampire to run to her partner's side. The vampire didn't hesitate either and ran into the black smoke, running for his life.
The older woman practically slid to the crying girl on the floor huddling in a fetal position near a tree. Heinkel stared at her for a moment then back at the other body that was still unconscious nearby.
"Heinkel….wh-whats going on?" Yumiko cried and closed her eyes shut not wanting to see all the gore in the clearing she was in a few seconds ago.
"Yumiko….I-I….um…." poor Heinkel didn't know what do, no one taught her what to do with a terrified nun and a knocked out one! She only prayed that the helicopter she had called earlier was on its way.
"Yumiko, listen to me. Don't open your eyes, understand?"
She nodded and wiped her cheeks, wrapping her arms around her legs, trying to comfort herself. Heinkel sighed, that was one thing taken care of, but what about the true berserker?
She looked back at the fallen fighter and gulped.
Yumiko is terrified out of her mind, how would the other half react?
Yin and Yang separated. Does that mean that the tiny piece of each other that they both had was gone also?
I think you've all seen a Yin and Yang sign. A circle, one part white, one part black. Black has a little piece of white and white has a little piece of black.
SO! Decide the fate of the story!
Does the little piece go away or does it stay?
(or to be more simplistic, will Yumie be completely insane or the same?)
reviews are nice… hee hee…..early Christmas present? Lol jk jk
