Kokoro's strength failed her, and she began to cry. Her Sai, her best friend was no longer her best friend.
"Hey, Matsuro, you wanna try that untested spell?"
Kokoro snapped her head up, Sai had two spells?
"Famakur!"
Kokoro's eyes widened at the sight of this new spell coming from Matsuro's hands.
Pocket NotebookChapter 4
Puppet handles appeared in his hand, and string shot from it. Kokoro hoped that the yamar spell could knock away the strings rushing at Bijutsu.
"Yamar!" Kokoro cried, to her amazement instead of a ball of light that formed in Bijutsu's hand a large fan formed. It was so large that he had to grip it with both hands. The moment the strings were in range Bijutsu swung the giant fan and all the stings where blown away.
Kokoro thought about how that happened. Before Kokoro and Bijutsu needed an attack, without any particular thought Bijutsu formed it into a sword when he squeezed it, this time Kokoro knew that something had to knock away the strings. The light formed into shapes.
Sadly the giant fan did not deter the strings, they had twisted themselves around and attacked Bijutsu from the back.
"Bijustu, behind you!' Kokoro screamed when she took notice of this, it was too late. The strings warped themselves around Bijutsu's body, around his legs, arms, and hands.
The strings forced Bijutsu to turn his body around.
"What's happing?" he stammered finding himself holding his large fan like a sword pointed at Kokoro.
"Interesting," Sai muttered, "I didn't think that there was such things as possession spells."
"Of course you didn't, you know nothing, now start the attack!"
"Okay." Sai took a deep breath and Bijutsu's body lunged at Kokoro.
"Ah, ah, ah!" he cried, viscously swinging the fan.
"Ah, ah, ah!" Kokoro stammered dodging the blows, for some reason there wasn't any wind. "Yu-Yuki boy, bite the threads!" Kokoro ordered the white dog patiently waiting for his mistress's commands.
On Kokoro's order Yuki lunged at several threads and easily bit through them. Once snapped, the threads on Bijutsu's body fell limp and the thread toward Matsuro whipped back into the puppet handles in his hands.
"Sai?" Kokoro panted, "You should know the weak point of your threads are how easily they're snapped."
"Shut UP!" Matsuro shouted, "She doesn't care what you have to say, so shut up and lose already! She's dumb and stupid, it doesn't matter what you say!"
Kokoro looked down, she was in her normal state of deep blush, "Sai, what do you have to say to this? You're still Sai somewhere in you right? The Sai that hates bugs, gets all a's, and most of all, hates jerks? You're still the one I call my best friend right?"
"SHUT UP!" Matsuro yelled looking panicked, "SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!"
Kokoro still looking at her feet question, "Matsuro why are you scared? Is Sai only like that because you tell her to be?" looking up and starring right into Sai's eyes, tears were streaming from both their eyes "Wall's are breakable, right Sai?"
Sai stood dumb struck, "Ko" she weakly muttered.
Matsuro turned and yelled, "What the hell do you think your doing? We have to attack now!"
Whatever emotion Sai had began to feel left as she began the attack once again. "Famak!"
A thousand threads pierced Kokoro's book arm. Kokoro didn't wince, she just glared at Matsuro. "Yuki get the boy in the cloak!"
Yuki obeyed and dashed at Matsuro. Matsuro with threads in Kokoro's arm with both hands couldn't move to defend himself.
"Stupid Human, Help!" he screamed in a high pitch girly voice, unlike the evil tone he had been speaking in.
Sai couldn't react before Yuki dug his sharp teeth into Matsuro's right arm.
"An arm for an arm." Kokoro muttered, watching Yuki bite the evil child. The spell that pierced Kokoro's arm, vanished instead of whipping back at Kokoro. The threads had done their damage. So many holes made it painful just to hold the book. Placing the book under her arm Kokoro ran at Sai.
"Stay back Witch!" Sai panicked and rushed to protect her book.
Kokoro jumped at Sai and instead of reaching for Sai's book, Kokoro gave her a hug. In the hug Kokoro let her book fall to the ground.
"Wha, Why?" Sai muttered.
Kokoro bit her tongue as she reached for Sai's book with her bloody arm. Sai had taken both arms and shielded her book across her heart.
"DON'T MOVE!" Matsuro's voice echoed.
He stood beside Kokoro and Sai, holding the blue-green book. He was covered with dog bite wounds.
"I have your book, you lose, I WIN," He panted, "Now back off-"
"Ha, you don't win till I'm gone." Bijutsu had come from behind Matsuro and placed him in a headlock.
Kokoro had paid no heed to Matsuro and Bijutsu's motions beside her. "You are not dumb, you are not a 'stupid human' and I will prove it." Kokoro said painfully as Sai's grip on the book loosened.
Bijutsu loosens his headlock on Matsuro, and punches him in the back of the head with all the force her could. Matsuro skidded across the ground, dropping the blue-green book. Bijutsu picked his book of the ground and dusted the dirt off.
Kokoro pulled the book away from Sai, "We have power, with or without Mamodo children." She stated holding the purple book in the same manner Sai had done before. The book was apart from her body and loosely held onto.
Bijutsu turned to hand Kokoro his book. Kokoro held the purple book with her bad arm and read her blue-green close to her heart with her left arm.
"Yamar" very little emotion was placed into the tone of her voice, but in Bijutsu's hand formed a lit match as large as the fan. The light fire touched the purple book and it burst into flames.
Matsuro's body began to fade into a blue glitter and into nothing.
Sai stood on her knees with her face looking straight down at the flaming book.
Kokoro surveyed the scene, as the last flaming cinders of the purple book blew off in the wind Sai passed out on top of the ashes.
"Sai," Kokoro sighed, glancing away from her passed out friend, Then looking right at her Kokoro shakily muttered, with tears in her eyes, "you're you again, right?"
A/N:
Is Sai, Sai again? I know, you don't. Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah!
During the hug scene they are juts friends, nothing more, please don't think about it. (Dramatics)
I am doing next time plans on my profile, don't be afraid to look at it.
Sigh I don't own Zatch Bell.
Enjoy:
Sai: ah I don't want to hug Kokoro with her bloody arm!
Kokoro: I don't want a bloody arm!
Sai: I faint at the sight of blood!
Kokoro: I faint at the sight of blood!
Sai: please no blood!
Kokoro: please, please, No BLOOD! I've been coated in blood enough from the rest of the story
Me: and here I was wondering why I made you two best friends. Shut up or I'll change the script and have Bijutsu's lose control and cause a physical wound on Kokoro and drench you both in much, much more blood.
Kokoro: no don't do that!
Sai: no, please don't do that!
Me: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA (in a truly evil laugh, you do not want to hear this laugh at three in the morning)
Kokoro & Sai: almost crying, hanging on to each other for life we-we-we-we-we-we-we'll do as you say, Dark over lord, the master of the world.
Me: smiles like a happy three year old great let's go!
Kokoro: why did mom sign the garden part of the contract saying I could do this
Sai: the same reason mine did, because they're over in the corner taking pictures
Four old people in the corner hunched over their cameras flash pictures at the scared two
Kokoro: I want to scream mommy, but it won't help that much will it?
