The Trio
Ramon: our new fic. The sequel of To the end, but a little based on Naga and her family.
Sunny: The Slayers and all its characters don't belong to us, not even the story about the Seilune family; it belongs to Hajime Kanzaka and Rui Arazumi. We are just fans who like to make fan fics.
Maliska: only Air Jay and Kiko belong to us.
Alandra: we hope that you people can enjoy this new fic.

Chapter 2
------
All the people of Seilune ran away from the battle field, escaping from the wrap of both fighters.
Phill just closed his fists hard, he could not believe that some one of the Andrade family was still alive, he was so certain that all of them was slaughtered. The same family that humiliated him times and times again, and now like a ghost this last family member returns to haunt him. "I can not believe that you are still alive……but I am remembering you, you are the kid that fell down that river but I thought that you have died.
"I came out of the doors of death to kill you, Philly-dork!" responded Air Jay, acting calm but his voice released such hate. He starts to walk to Phill, leaving footprints covered in fire. "So welcome to hell!"
------
"Mommy….I'm scare." Said Gracia, trembling in fear because of the scenery that Air Jay is creating.
Sylvinia did not say anything, she just watched Air Jay very closely, she could not believe all the negative emotions that are coming from that boy, hate, rage, fury, destruction, these are the only thought consuming him.
-----
Phil lifted his fist; he could not let himself being humiliated by the Andrade family again. "You will not defeat me you little insignificant boy! PACIFIST CRASH!"
He throws a big punch at Air Jay, the only effect that has made Air Jay take a few steps back."
"Is that the best effort that you can put together?" asked Air Jay looking up at Phill with the hate still burning in his eyes
"FOOL!" shouted Phill. "You think that you can defeat me? You are just a kid! And look behind me, this is the castle of Seilune! The most powerful symbol of my family, this castle was made by my ancestors long ago, representing all my ancestors that gave their lives for justice, representing the justice fighters that are us, the Seilune family, as long as this castle stays on his feet and as long as my ancestors are watching over me you will never defeat me!"
"Your ancestors are like you! Brainless morons!" replied Air Jay lifting his hand to the air. "I and my family felt your wrath, now you're going to feel ours!" Air Jay lowers his hand pointing the palm pf his hand at the castle right behind Phill.
And strong explosions emerge from the castle, leaving the castle semi-destroyed and burning.
"NO!!!!!" screamed Phill in agony when he saw his castle being destroyed, the castle made by the efforts of his family then he turns back to Air Jay, completely furious. "You evil creature, I swear you will pay for this!"
Phill ran to Air Jay ready to punch him with another Pacific Crash, but Air Jay gave him a upper cut right on Phill's chin, making him back away.
But Air did not stop there, he throw another punch at Phill's face and kicking him on the guts.
------
Inside the Castle, Sylvinia and her daughter Gracia run thought the burning castle to find Amelia who is still in her room sleeping. "FREEZE ARROW!" shouted Sylvinia throwing ice spells at the fire to make it easy for them to pass but is a little more difficult because of the fire. "Damn it, we'll never make it in time!"
Gracia felt so worthless, she only wished that could just learn more spell than the white magic that her father forces her to learn.
-------
Out side Air Jay continues to punish Phil with dozen of kicks and punches, not letting Phill to breath.
In one last punch made Phill landing on his knees, holding his stomach in pain, eh's terribly hurt because of the punishment that Air Jay gave him. "Damn you……"
Air Jay lets out a smirk "Just like old times……I remember the times when my family comes to this worthless city and defeats you like this. You always were the perfect clown Philly dork, but in combat you are just cannon meat! In other words you're weak!" Air Jay then looks at the castle in fire and looks back at Phill. "in past times when my family use to attack this city they always found a way to humiliate you and embarrass you in front of your people, and I am going to give you your biggest embarrassment by destroying your castle, and you are going to help me!"
Air Jay grabs Phill from his back, wrapped his arms around and lifts him up, leaving him supported in Air Jay shoulder. "Time to fly!" and jumps to the air, a very high jump, so high that they are already in the air in spot which the city of Seilune could bee seen. "And now its time to end this once and for all!" and Air Jay starts to land at full speed directly to the ground, ready to make Phill crash against the ground violently from a high elevation.
Air Jay fall directly to the castle, throwing Phill against it.
BOOM
The impact was so strong that destroyed the castle, every part of the castle falls down and also burning because of the explosion created by Air Jay.. Air Jay just watched everything from the air with wings of fire formed on his back.
After all the smoke is clear Air Jay landed slowly to see if Phill is still alive. After landing much deeper he found him, he was shocked to see that he's still alive.
He lands right near to Phill and saw him all bashed and bruised, but still alive. With no mercy Air Jay grabs Phill by the hair. "Does it hurt? Well this is nothing compare to the pain I suffered because of you!" he exclaimed with a deadly enraged voice. "Now this is it Philly-dork! I destroyed your stupid castle and you couldn't do anything about it, after I kill you the Seilunes will be no more! See you in hell!"
Air Jay lifted his hands ready to kill Phill when he starts to hear cries of a child. "Huh?" a cry of a child is something that brought back sad memories to him, remembering his young brother. "Rui?" he drops Phill and follows the sound.
After taking a few rocks out of the way he finds the sound of the cries, it is indeed the cries of a child, it is little Amelia.
"Mama….Papa….." cried Amelia who managed to survive the destruction.
Air Jay was very disappointed, he had hopes that it was his little brother, but he keeps forgetting that Phill killed him.
Suddenly he notices that a piece of the roof covered in fire landing directly at Amelia.
"NO!!!!" cried Air Jay as he runs at Amelia and hold her "Kiko if you are hearing me teleport us out of here!" he shouted and then a green light surrounds him and Amelia and booth of them disappeared.
Sylvinia and Gracia managed to see it just when they were about to save Amelia.
"Mother, that guy kidnapped Amelia!" cried Gracia.
"You are wrong Gracia." Assured Sylvinia. "It sounded more that he was trying to save her. Let's go!" and she grabs her daughter and ray wings out of the destroyed castle directly to the city.
--------
In a dark alley, a little white furry dog with an immense energy in him creates a big magical green portal, and from that green portal comes out Air Jay caring little Amelia, Air Jay appeared so fast and so sudden that ended ups crashing against the wall, hurting his head.
"Au, AUUU? (Air Jay, are you aright?)" Barked the dog.
"No I'm not, Kiko!" responded Air Jay with a bloody head and feeling very dizzy. "I bashed my head against the wall much harder than I thought; I think I'm going to lose conscious!"
"(Hang on, I'll take you out of here)" said Kiko, communicating telepathically with Air Jay. "(And who is the little girl?)" He asked as he noticed Amelia who is unconscious in Air Jay's arm
"I think this is Phill's youngest daughter, she was about to get hit with a rock in fire." Air Jay managed to respond.
"(Oh Man, I hate kids.)"
"We got to get out of here! I don't feel so good." Said Air Jay.
"So you don't feel very good huh?" asked a new voice, it is Orland who just entered the alley with some Seilune troops beside him, all of them caring swords and spears.
"Ora Bolas (damn it!)" cursed Air Jay. "You jackasses are still alive?"
Kiko stands in front of Air Jay, roaring at the Seilune Troops
"It takes much more than that to defeat knights of justice like us!" said Orland taking out his sword. "Now that Prince Phill has weakened you it will be up to us to finish you. MEN, PREPARE THE SPEARS!!!"
And the troops lifted their spears ready to throw them at Air Jay. And Orland lifted his sword. "At my command, throw the spears!"
"Hold it right there you morons I have a children here!" shouted Air Jay, feeling that he's too close on losing his conscious.
"It is a small price to pay to get rid of you! We won't have any mercy on you evil Air Jay!"
"You are going to kill Princess Amelia just to get me?"
"We might never have a chance like this and we won't waist it! In the name of Peace and Justice we will eliminate you!"
"STOP IT!!!!" shouted Sylvinia as she appeared from sky and landed right in front of Seilune troops. "That is enough Orland! Lower your weapons and leave these kids alone!"
Orland was a little surprised by Sylvinia's interference. "Stay out of this, princess Sylvinia. This is none of your business."
"None of my business?" snapped Sylvinia. "You idiots were wiling on killing my youngest daughter just to kill Jayson? I demand that you people leave him alone!"
"The name is Air Jay!" Corrected Air Jay, but he wonder how is it that Phill's wife knows his old name.
"Do not interfere, Princess Sylvinia!" demanded Orland. "This is a fight for justice where we must destroy this devil child!"
"Stand back!" Sylvinia demanded back. "This child has suffered the enough! He saw his entire family getting slaughtered with no mercy. I don't want to give him no more pain."
"The things that he suffered are of no importance to us! He must accept his fate and accept his death without complaining!"
Sylvinia could not believe what he just heard from the captain of the Seilune troops, he speaks of justice but he is wiling to kill children to make it happen. "That is enough! What gives you the right to kill this child? Do you think that you are better than him?"
"What is that suppose to mean? Are you saying that we are the villains? The strongest power is justice, the ones who respect Justice is the ones who are forces of good! And we are part of that force!"
"Good lord…." Gasped Sylvinia. "My husband trained lunatics! Well you all can consider your selves fired. Leave at once!"
"WHAT!?!?" screamed Orland. "You miserable insolent! You dare to say to fire us? Then you will be eliminated as well! FIRE MEN! FIRE, FIRE, FIRE!!!"
And all the troops throw their spears at Sylvinia, but she just lifted her hand in mid air and all the spears just stopped in the air, not before the burn.
All the troops gasped when they saw that.
Sylvinia wasted no more time and launched a spell at them "MEGA BRANDA!!!" and an explosion emerged from the ground making all the troops fly to the air, only Orland remained. "Orland, in case you haven't heard me, you are dismiss! Leave and never come back!"
"SHUT UP! You know I won't leave!" shouted Orland and charges against Sylvinia.
But she dodges his attack and gives him an uppercut right on the chin. "Now get lost! DIEM WIND!!" Sylvinia launched the spell at Orland, making him also fly out of the city.
"Mother!" Gracia called. "He just fainted. Do you think he's dead?"
"I don't think so dear, he doesn't die easily" said Sylvinia as she walked to Air Jay and pick up Amelia and checks how Air Jay is going. Then she looks back at Kiko. "Hello Kiko, long time no see."
"AU AU!" barked Kiko.
"Too bad I am not like the Andrades, I don't know what you are saying."
"What now mother?" asked Gracia.
Sylvinia gives Amelia to Gracia and picks up Air Jay. "We'll take him to our place to take care of him."
-------
Air Jay wakes up to find himself in a room that it is unknown to him. "Onde estou? (Where am I?)"
"Au AU? (You're alright Air Jay?)" Barked Kiko.
"Yeah I'm ok." Responded Air Jay trying to get up, and notices that he has bandages on his head. "Who put these bandages on my head?"
"I did, Portuguese boy." Responded Sylvinia. "You are on the house where me and my daughter use to stay most of the times."
Air Jay to his left and sees Sylvinia caring his daughter Amelia and beside her is Gracia. "Don't call me boy!"
"Desculpa lá. (Sorry about that.)" replied Sylvinia in Air Jay's native language.
Air Jay blinked in confusion. "How do you know my native language?"
"(Because Sylvinia is a very close friend of your family Air Jay!)" responded Kiko entering in telepathic contact with Air Jay. "(Your father taught her the Portuguese language since she became a very close friend of the family since she knew your mother.)"
Air Jay looks back at Sylvinia. "You…..you knew my parents?"
Sylvinia nodded her head. "Yes I did. I knew you mother, we were travelling companions in the past and we shared many adventures, but the funniest thing is that she was a master thieve; she could steal anything from any one without them even noticing. One day she was injured very badly with internal injuries until your father came and saved her life by giving some of his special blood to her, they fell in love and married with each other. This is the first time I saw any of her kids. And your father told me the story of your family, a hundred years ago your family were sailing in the sea but were caught in a terrible storm and ended up landing in this country. They started to make some money in Seilune but ended up in a family war with the Seilune family because of a stupid insult."
Air Jay did not say anything; his eyes just twitched with fury.
"Mother, what did you mean by special blood?" asked Gracia.
"The Andrade Family is from another country called Portugal, and the Andrade family were blessed with the blood of the Phoenix." Responded Sylvinia.
Gracia gasped. "The Phoenix?"
"Yes, the Phoenix, the bird that had an immense power and it resurrect them selves by the ashes of fire and return back with a more impressive energy, it was the secret of the power the Andrade Family, they could easily manipulate the fire and every time they get hurt they could cure their wounds in a blink of an eye but that is the minimal, the blood gave to each one of the Andrade family a unique strength, agility and power which no man could reach, there were even rumours that said that the Andrade family used that power to destroy many Mazokus that dare to face them."
"But we were defeated…" interrupted Air Jay. "We had a family dinner in a restaurant. we were planning a final attack on Seilune so that we might steal one of the ships and return to our home country, but we didn't know was that the food was poisoned, poisoned by none other than Prince Phill.. A poison so strong that was even deadlier to the phoenixes. I was the only one who didn't ate a thing because I wasn't hungry at the time and Kiko was not there because he didn't want to say near any kid since he hates kids. But Phill was not content with just poisoning us and decided to strike us down with his Seilune Troops, he was merciless, he killed every one, every one….." Air Jay shakes his head; he didn't want to remember that horrible incident.
Sylvinia puts her hand on Air Jay's shoulder. "I know how you feel young one…… I heard about what happen to them when it was too late. I felt guity that day for not being able to help them."
Garcia didn't know what to say, and since she was now holding Amelia she covered her ears so that she could not heard what her father has done.
"But I have avenge them!" said Air Jay in a firm voice. "I killed Phil and avenged them all!"
Sylvinia was in silence for a moment. "Actually you didn't."
"What?"
"My husband is still alive, he survived your attack but he can't even move because of your beating."
"WHAT!?!?" cried Air Jay with his eyes twitching. "I don't believe that he is still alive, but it won't be for long." He said as he got up. "I'm going back there and finish the job."
Garcia backed away from, in a certain way this kid that has the same age as her is quite scary.
"I am afraid I can not let you do that." Said Sylvinia as she step in front of Air Jay. "You must calm your self, you are giving in to you anger and it is clouding your mind and thoughts, it is stopping you to think straight."
"SHUT UP!!!" shouted Air Jay. "You are not the boss of me and if you don't get out of my way I will make you join your future dead husband!"
"(Be silence Air Jay!)" Shouted Kiko. "(This woman is a dear close friend of the family and she helped us a lot even when we were in a difficult position. She deserves our respect.)"
"What are you talking about? What respect?" snapped Air Jay. "Where was she when my family was attacked and murdered, if she is such a close friend of the family why didn't she warn us?"
Sylvinia remain in silence for a moment. "I've told you I only learn about what happen when it was too late. But I can't let you kill my husband, you have already won. This fight is over."
"NO IT IS NOT!!!!" screamed Air Jay. "IT IS NOT!!! This won't end so quickly, you don't expect that four years of torture to end just like that, I saw my entire family being slaughtered right in front of me, and my mother use her last breathe to save me. Then I come back to the world and I see all those jackasses at that city, which supported Phill, celebrating my family's death like if we were real monsters. Who do they think they are to judge us with out never knowing us, they only believed all the dumb things that Phill said about my family. Phill killed my entire family, made me an orphan and expect me to just go away with out killing him? Forget it, I'm going to….."
Air Jay was interrupted when Sylvinia punched him on the face, making him crash against the wall. "What is the big idea?"
"You didn't saw that coming? Your hate really makes you blind little boy, you are really disgracing your family."
Those words only made Air Jay even angrier. "HOW DARE YOU!?!?!?" he jumped to the air to attack Sylvinia.
"Mommy!!!" cried Amelia.
"Mother!!!" cried Gracia.
Sylvinia didn't even move, she just murmured some magic words "MONO VOLT!" and the electrical spell hits Air Jay.
"AAAGH!!!!" cried Air Jay in pain when he got hit with the spell and lands on the ground with many bruises on his body.
Gracia could feel the intensity on her mothers spell, these are the first time she ever seen her mother perform sorceries.
"I'm not done yet." Said Air Jay getting up, but with much difficult, and trying to advance to Sylvinia but she stops him by holding him on his forehead with a finger.
"Air Jay, this is not the ways that your family taught you."
"Huh? What are you talking about?"
"Your family has the blood and the powers of the phoenix. They had impressive fighting skills but you are not even using them, you are just giving in to your anger. One of the most impressive abilities that your family possessed was the complete control of their anger and emotions and their desire to live life as they pleased, that is how they managed to defeat many Mazokus in the past, and most of all they managed to heal their wounds with the phoenix powers but you are just giving in to your anger so much that you aren't capable of healing all the wounds that you have right now. How do you think that your mother would feel if she saw you acting like a madman? I understand how you feel about my husband, but your mother would want you to grow up with out living in fury, the best way to keep your families memory intact is to live your life they way they did, that is the best way you can honour them. Remember all the things they've taught you."
Sylvinia's kind words brought a different side of Air Jay, one that it could possibly never been seen again. Suddenly all the wounds he has on his body start to burn for a moment, then they start to disappear as well as all the wounds he had. Air Jay is practically as good as new.
"Uau." That was all that Amelia could say. "So cool!"
"Amazing…" said Gracia. It must be because Air Jay has the phoenix blood, it can heal him of any wound he might get.
"Grrr Au! (Way to go Air Jay!)" Barked Kiko, with a smile on his face.
Air Jay led his back against the wall and Sylvinia notices that his eyes are all watery. "It is ok boy, it is ok to cry."
"NO!" cried Air Jay. "I promise my self never to cry again……"
"No one will tell boy….it is best that you let it all out. Let it all out" said Sylvinia taping Air Jay's head.
Air Jay sits to the ground with tear in his eyes. "Where is every one? Where is my family? My uncles, my aunts, my grandpas, my cousins? Where are they? I only have Kiko, my best friend and guardian….but where is every one? I miss my Mama…….my Dad just keep on telling to me and to Rui that we were going to return back to our home country……we were going humiliate Phill one last time, we were going to steal one of his ships and return back to Portugal and learn how to sing the Fado…..but it didn't happen….Phill ruined everything. He killed my baby brother right in front of me and I couldn't do anything to save him…nothing…….I just keep on hearing him calling mom and dad, just crying……" he started to sob with his eyes closed really hard. "Those cries keep on haunting me……I can't get them out of my mind….."
Kiko listen intentionally to everything that Air Jay said, this poor little kid saw things that no child should ever see. He had been keeping all of this inside himself ever since his family died, but Sylvinia made him unleash all his angst out and he's thanks her for that.
Gracia rested Amelia's head on her chest and covered her hear so that she could not hear all that Air Jay is saying, this is the first time that Gracia pities Air Jay.
Sylvinia kneeled down and open her arms to let Air Jay cry on her chest, and so he did, he cried on her chest for at least five minutes.
------
After all the cries were done Sylvinia brought a cup of tea for Air Jay to help him calm down, she never saw such sadness in one child before. "So Jayson, what will you do now?"
Air Jay took the cup. "I don't know……I think I will live my life on the out doors, and becoming a professional criminal like my family was….. And it is Air Jay!"
Gracia felt envy on Air Jay, she wished she could live out of the castle, to be free like a bird and to be free of the prison that it is being a princess. "Will you go alone?"
"No. I will have Kiko by my side."
"Au! (That's me!)" Barked Kiko.
Sylvinia taps Air Jay on the head again. "I see…..I can not stop you to live your life as a outlaw, I can see that. But anytime you wish to see me or visit me and my daughters you will be always welcome here. Any time you have a problem you can talk to me, consider us like your second family."
Those words almost made Air Jay cry again but he held his tears. "Really?"
Sylvinia nodded her head. "You have saved my daughter Amelia, I own you a lot. And I felt so imputed when your mother and family died, I felt so bad for not being there to help them out. But now I want to correct that mistake by taking care of their last child."
"Yeah, and your hair is funny." Said Amelia pointing at Air Jay's hair.
That made Sylvinia and Gracia giggle, only Air Jay remained in silence but ended up smiling. "Thank you Sylvinia….."
"You're welcome." She replied and then picks up Amelia. "No I must put Amelia to sleep and then I must see how Phill is doing."
"Sylvinia, wait!" called Air Jay when Sylvinia was about to leave with Amelia. "Why did you marry Phill? You know what a big moron he is. He's a complete loony. So why did you married him?"
"Yeah mother I would like to know that as well!" said Gracia also interested in that subject.
Sylvinia turns her head to the two kids with a soft smile. "Love works in ways that we can't comprehend. You two are still young but in the future you'll understand."
After saying that Sylvinia leaves the two confused kids and Kiko alone.
Gracia then looks at Air Jay: "You know, Amelia is right you have a really funny hair."
"I do not!" growled Air Jay "my mother made this hair do on me. And I like it just the way it is!"
"You almost look like a talking hair ball!" replied Gracia with a laugh.
"WHAT?"
"Auuuuuuuuu……( and people wonder why I hate kids…...)" moaned Kiko listening to the silly conversation between Garcia and Air Jay.
-------
Four years later
The new Castle of Seilune is already built after it was destroyed by Air jay four years ago, but this time Phill ordered to build secret passages ways that only him, his wife and daughters know about it.
And we find the eight year old Amelia in her room playing with her dollies.
From the shadows a hand appears and takes the doll that it is on her left side.
When Amelia was going to grab her dolly she notices that it is gone, she blinked in confusion but then she got when she understood who it is. "AiJaykinss!"
And from the shadows a sixteen year old Air Jay appears and right beside him is Kiko.
"I thought I told you to call me Air Jay, Amelia." Said Air Jay, giving back Amelia's doll. "And you should be more careful with your toys."
Amelia smiled at him. "I know that you always give me back my dollies when come to visit us. Do you want to play dollies with me AiJaykinns?"
Air Jay sweet drooped. "Hum….no. maybe next time."
"But that is what you said last time!"
"Grrrrr. (Please keep her away from me.)" growled Kiko, backing away. "Auuuu…. (I hate when I am forced to play dollies with her……)
"Say Amelia is your mother around?" asked Air Jay.
"Yes, but I don't know where she is."
"I see, and what about your sister?"
"She's in her room getting ready for the party today."
"A party…." Said Air Jay with a smirk, he always loved to trash any party organised by Phill.
"Yeah, a celebration for her weeding." Said Amelia with a smile.
Air Jay's smirk disappeared when he heard the news. "Weeding?"
"Yeah, when I grow up I want to marry a big wonderful man." Said Amelia very happily.
"Hum, right….well then let's go see your sister then." Said Air jay as he grabbed Amelia and then him, Amelia and Kiko entered a secret passage way directly to Gracia's room.
