The Trio
Ramon: 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 20
------
Naga and Air Jay ran as fast as they can in cave with the blast of fire coming right after them, a blast created by Arn's bomb.
"What mess did you got me into!?!?" Air Jay screamed as he runs caring Kiko in his arm.
"Don't blame this on me!!! This is your entire fault!!!" Naga screamed back.
"Why is it my fault?"
"Because you're the bad guy!!!"
"But that's no fair!"
"AAAAUUUU, Grrr AU!!!! (SHUT UP YOU TWO, and run faster the fire is gaining on us!!!)" Kiko barked.
"I'm running damn it!!!" Air Jay screamed.
"(I don't see why you're running Air Jay, the fire can not harm you!)"
"I know, I just don't want to be burry alive in this hole."
"To whom are you talking too, Air Jay?" Naga asked. "Are you insane?"
The trio managed to get out of the temple in time but the fire is still after them, so Naga performed a Raywing spell and Air Jay created wings of fire on his back and both of them fly as fast as they can out of the hole, but the hole is too deep and the fire is chancing them in full speed, they won't be able to get out of the hole in time.
Air Jay looks back to see Naga still far behind, she is still to tire from the early battle she had just now. "Naga grab my hand!!!" Air Jay said, giving his hand to Naga.
Naga denied at first but in the difficult condition they are in right now she is not in position to deny help from any one. She gives her hand to Air Jay.
As soon as their hands came in contact Air Jay and Naga's power fused, creating two magical creatures that are surrounding the Trio, a Serpent and a Phoenix.
"What….what's going on here?" Air Jay asked as he looks at the aura that surrounds them.
"It is wonderous!" Naga said, astounded with what is happening right now, but then she shakes her head. "Lets get out of here first!"
"Right!"
Air Jay and Naga flew out of the hole with an impressive speed and managed to get out of the hole and they land in solid ground, the blast of fire also comes out of the hole but it flies to the open sky until it is no more.
Both Naga and Air Jay land on their knees, catching their breaths, Kiko in the other hand is still curious of what just happen, how is it that the combination between Naga and Air Jay created that energy that allowed them to escape? What is it that caused that?
Naga then senses that some one puts a hand on her shoulder, she turns around but Naga sees no one but then she sees a transparent figure of her mother. "Mother?" Naga whispered in a sentimental voice. Her mother only nodded her head and gives her thumps up with a smile and she mouths something that Naga could not understand, then she disappears, even if it was for a brief moment or even her imagination, Naga is very glad to see her mother again.
"Man….."Air Jay said with a diminutive voice. "That was freaking sweet!!!!" He hooted very loud.
"OOOOOOHOHOHOHOHO!!!" Naga laughs. "It was fantastic! Let's do that again."
Kiko twitched and looks at both Naga and Air Jay with a frown. "(You idiots!)" Kiko screamed telepathically and jumps to the air and throws a kick at booth Naga and Air Jay.
Ashley and Jam caught a clips off Naga and Air jay on the ground and they ran to them
"Are you guys alright?" Ashley asked a little worry.
"Hum…..yeah, we just….slipped." Naga lied, she didn't want to tell Ashley that a dog just kick them on the face.
"Yeah, we slipped." Air Jay joined in the lied.
Ashley and Jam sweat dropped.
"Well anyway, we won!" Ashley announced in joy. "We defeated the Aviar Army really easily like you people predicted, many of them just ran away, we drove them out to the sea. We freed our island!!!"
All the rebels and the ex-prisoners cheer and celebrate in their victory. After so many years the people of the island can be free from the tyranny of the Aviar Army.
"Well, another one bites the dust!" Air Jay said coolly.
Naga gets up to her feet with a superior look. "Of course, we Naga the Serpent on the job nothing is impossible."
"You what about me? I work my butt out all the day, why don't I have some credits? And don't start saying that it is because I am the bad guy!"
"You don't have any credits because you don't have the beauty that it is haunting the Great Naga the Serpent."
"Oh c'mon! That's not fair, I have the most magnificent structure in the word and Im a bad boy! I deserve some credit."
Kiko sighed, those two are so vain that it makes them impossible to stand.
------
Later on a celebration occurred during the entire island, celebrating their victory one the vindictive Aviar army, a celebration that started even since their defeat and that it is night time and the celebration is still taking place.
Kiko is also taking part of this party, namely eating all the food that he can find, he never misses a party where there are tons of food on the way.
Naga on the other hand didn't attention the party, she is in her room watching the people having their fun in her window, drinking a bottle of wine, after so many days on this island she can not believe that she finally got the crystal, now all she has to do is go to Zurten's place so that he can activate the power of the crystal, and then she can finish Air Jay once and for all. She still feels bad about it though, she knows that Air Jay was her best friend in her childhood but he killed her mother with no heart or soul, none the less she feels bad for betraying and using her ex-friend. But what is really bugging brains out is how she and Air Jay made that combination of power when they hold hands, it was really strange and something that Naga never heard off and the most amazing thing is that she saw her mothers spirit after that, normally Naga would feel that very weird but after all the adventures she's been in, nothing surprises her anymore. But she feels a big weight in her heart for what she is about to do, it is like the feeling she had for Air Jay in the past is coming back.
"Yo Baby. What's up" Air Jay greeted as he entered the room.
Naga looks back at him with a more straight face. "Air Jay? I thought you were at the party."
"No me, baby cakes. I'm not the type of dude that gets mixed in a party with people that are not terrorized at me." Air Jay replied, then walks next to Naga and looks at the crystal that it is on Naga's hand. "So….we finally made it….we got that damn crystal…."
"You seem disappointed." Naga pointed out.
"Who me? No way baby." Air jay lied, even if this was the first time he had a traveler companion he must admit he enjoyed Naga's company, she was different from most people he knew, she is crazy but funny, she is greedy but hyper and very easily to get along with some one like Naga. "I guess after we learn the secrets of the crystal we will have our revenge on Lina."
"Yeah, I guess so……" Naga said softly as she turns back to the window, watching the full moon.
Air Jay joins Naga in watching the moon. "Say Naga, between me and Lina, who was your best traveling companion?"
"Lina." Naga responded honestly with a soft voice.
Air Jay twisted when he heard that. "Oh….."
"Lina and I were always rival, that everyone knows……but we have a special combination when we fought together, it was like we knew what we would do without talking to each other, but most of the times it was Lina who took the credits. You are different in that."
Air Jay takes a quick look at Naga. "What do you mean?"
"Every time we fight together we never took credit about who did the best work, we were too busy talking about ourselves to do it and you always stayed by side in every difficult situation and you never throw a fireball at me, and most off the times I always had to look out for Lina because she was always running away from me. I guess that what makes you better than Lina, you don't run away."
Air Jay closes his eyes softly and then opens them up again. "I guess we can say that our whole relationship happens because of our rivalry with Lina, huh? I guess we should thank her for that. Even if our partnership will end soon, I admit I do not regret spending one moment with you."
"What?"
"All I am saying that no matter what might happen in the past or even if I die some day I won't be sorry with the time I had with you."
Naga blushed when Air Jay said that. "Well….you know….that was quite romantic, from a brute like you……"
"Naga…."Air Jay gently holds Naga's cheeks, making her look at him.
"Yes Air Jay?" she blushed a little when Air Jay is looking at her with some passion, not with those dark cold eyes of him, she trembled a little nervously when Air Jay approached his face to Naga's. "Air Jay, what……"
"Do you trust me?" Air Jay asked tenderly.
"But what are you….."
"Do you trust me?"
"I…I……"Naga was too nervous to respond at first but then she looks back at Air Jay with the same tender look. "Yes, I trust you."
Air Jay then locks his lips with Naga's giving her the most passionate and most loving kiss he ever gave to a woman.
Naga did not respond at first, she just let Air Jay continue to kiss her very warmly for a few moments, then she wraps her arms around Air Jay, returning to him the same kisses he was giving her.
The two of the continued to kiss each other with all the passion and love they are feeling right now with no one to interrupt them.
"What are you doing?" Emily asked, interrupting the Naga/Air Jay moment.
"AAAH!" Air Jay and Naga screamed at the same time when Emily showed up.
"Emily what are you doing here?" Naga asked feverishly.
Emily giggled. "I was just wondering why you guys are not coming to the party."
"Oh….I can't go right now, kid. I'm a little tire and I want to take a nap" Air Jay lied very embarrassedly.
"I'll go with then girl. I need something to drink." Naga immediate said as she picks up Emily and walks out of the room. She can not believe she kissed him, she kissed the same monster who murdered her mother, he was her first kiss. She is so confused.
Air Jay remains in where he is and touched his lips. "Man……she's a kisser….best kiss I ever had."
------
The next day.
All the people of the island when to the same beach where the trio landed their ship, saying their goodbyes to the heroes who freed their home.
"Oh c'mon you guys, you don't need to leave already." Vitty said.
Jam Agreeded. "Yeah, why don't you guys stick around a little more longer? We are still having more parties around."
"Sorry, no can do." Naga responded. "We want to get to our home land and have this Crystal work out."
"Very well, and keep that crystal away from us." Ashley said. "We don't want to suffer all the pain we endured all these years."
"No problem, but don't forget our deal. You guys will make statue in my honor." Naga reminded.
"And you guys won't tell anyone that I help you guys!" Air Jay reminded. "I don't want people to think I'm a good guy!"
Ashley laughed. "Don't worry I will accomplish our agreement."
"Say, I think this is the first time I ever saw you laugh." Naga noticed.
"I believe this is the first time I laughed in a long time." Ashley admitted, and then she lifts up her hand to shake hands with Air Jay and Naga. "I will miss you crazy people."
"Will your people be alright?" Naga asked.
"Yes, no problem at all. We can build our island again with all the material and all the ships that are in the Camp of the Aviar Army."
"Air Jay! Naga!" Emily called as she runs to the Trio and she gives them one of her dollies. "This is for you guys."
"For us?" Naga asked. "Why do you give us that?"
"That way you guys won't forget me."
"Hey, relax girl, we won't forget about you." Air Jay assured.
"But I want you guys to have it." Emily insisted as she gives the dolly to the Trio.
Naga smiled softly to the kid and takes the doll. "Thanks kid."
Then a man and a woman walk to the Trio and stops near to Ashley and Emily.
"I thank you two for saving our island and for taking care of our daughters." The man said.
"Not a problem." Naga said with a thumb up.
"Grrrrr, Au? Ruff! (Can we go now, please? I hate long goodbyes!)" Kiko barked as he walks to the ship.
"Let's get going Naga, Kiko is very impatient." Air Jay said as he walks after Kiko.
"Well goodbye you people!" Naga said as she walks after Air jay, and the people of the island waved goodbye to The Trio.
-----
The Trio sailed to the sea in a very low speed, nit much talk between Naga and Air Jay, Naga is avoiding him again this time because of what happen last night. She can not believe that her first kiss was given by the same fiend that executed her mother, but sickly Naga enjoy it, in her youth Naga really desired Air Jay to be the first one to kiss her but the way that things changed Naga never even thought about having a relationship with a man. Naga then shakes her head. "I can not be sympathizing with him! He's the one who killed my mother and I am going to kill him soon! And I am so sick of repeating this over and over again!"
Naga then looks back at Air Jay who is pulling down some off the sails but with a very annoyed face. "Raios partam, é escusado! (Damn it! It's pointless!)"
"What are you complaining about?" Naga asked.
"This ship is falling apart! That is what it is!" Air Jay replied.
"How come?"
"I don't know. Maybe because some one has thrown a wind spell of the sails and made the ship crash against the short!" Air Jay responded very sarcastically.
"Now Air Jay, you don't need to blame your self about the stupid mistake you've made." Naga said very arrogantly.
"I WAS TALKING ABOUT YOU! MARIA MALUCA! (CRAZY WOMAN!)"
"Like it's my fault that you don't know how to navigate!"
Air Jay growled. "When will the day come when you will admit that you have made a mistake?"
In that moment Kiko barks, pointing his paw to something in the horizon.
"What did he say?" Naga asked.
"He said he saw a ship." Air Jay responded as he picks up his binoculars and looks to where Kiko was pointing. Air Jay saw indeed a ship and laughed when he recognized the ship. "Não acredito! (I don't believe it!)"
"What? What is it?" Naga asked curiously.
"That is one of the ships that escaped a few days ago. Our friend Fatty is on board that ship."
"Fatty?" Naga said with a grin. "That's good, I miss humiliating him. And most of all we will gain a new ship. OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOH!"
"So Naga my dear, make that wind spell on the sails again and I will lead us to fatty."
------
Brunou walked around the deck with such a discontent. "What a dreadful way to go. We were forced to leave the island and to abandon the Aviar Army because of Master Aviar and that crazy couple. What worries me is if any one of them might decide to come after us."
"You worry too much." Lim assured "I am sure that they will face each other in the end and luckily they will end up destroying each other."
"I look forward to that. In the mean time we can make a living by piracy."
"General Brunou! General Brunou! A Ship is coming in our way at full speed!" a soldier called, pointing to the Trio's ship.
"Why is that ship coming at us?" Brunou picks up his binoculars and looks to the ship and became pale when he saw Naga, Air Jay and Kiko waving at him. "It's….its those maniacs again!"
Every one in the ship screamed in fear when they heard the news and started to panic, some even jumped out of the ship. They are still very afraid of the Trio because they have easily defeated the twelve top leaders of the Aviar army.
"ABANDON SHIP!!!" Brunou screamed and every one in the ship ran away and jumping to the water.
Brunou tried to escape but he was caught by Air Jay and Naga, they got in the ship so fast that Brunou did not notice them. "Oh no….please don't harm me…." He begged. "Why can't you people just leave me alone?"
"Fatty! You look wonderful!" Naga greeted as she slaps Brunou's back very violently.
"How did we miss ya, you fat donkey." Air Jay greeted as he taps Brunou's head violently.
"Now look at that Air Jay, he's still so fat." Naga said as she slaps Brunou's belly.
"Now what did we told you about that Fatty?"
"Please, leave me alone!" Brunou begged.
Naga then pulls up Brunou's cheek. "Fatty, why didn't you ask us what happen to the Aviar Army?"
"Alright, Alright, What happen to the Aviar Army?" Brunou asked even if Naga is holding him up by his cheek. Well, at least it is not the hears.
"It's none of your business!" Naga yelled as she slapped Brunou right on the face. "They are all gone, even your boss, and we got the Crystal that you buffoons were looking for!"
"First she tells me that it is none of my business and slaps me on the face, and then she tells me everything? These people really are crazy! Why must I be the victim?" Brunou thought.
"So tell me Fatty. Why didn't you ask us to ask you what have you been doing since the last time we saw you?" Air Jay asked as he pull ups Brunou's cheeks.
Brunou has no choice but to answer that. "I'm sorry. Why don't you as me what I've been doing since the last time I saw you guys?"
Air Jay punches Brunou. "Because we're not interested! But to change the subject, what have you guys been doing since the last time we saw each other?"
Brunou is already starting to cry, he really hates Air Jay and Naga. "Oh besides the fact that what remains of the Aviar Army has decided to take the lives of a pirate and that every one is on the water…...we are doing fine."
Naga and Air Jay look at each other with a grin, then they pull Brunou up to the air again by his hears.
"No more, please, no more!!!" Brunou begged, he hates when they pull him up by his hears, at this rate they will end up ripping his hears out.
"We have another question for you Fatty. Do you know what's that?" Naga asked as she points to the sea.
"It's the Sea." Brunou responded and he was rewarded by a punch from Naga.
"I didn't tell you answer the question! I want you to ask me what is that!"
"Why me?" Brunou wined mentally. "Ok, what is that?"
"Sea!" Naga answered, and Brunou didn't say anything else.
Air Jay bongs Brunou in the head. "You are suppose to say sea who, you twit!"
"Alright…..sea who?..." Brunou wined.
Naga sighed. "Now we have to repeat everything again! Fatty, do you know what that is?" Naga asked again, pointing to the Sea.
Brunou had no choice but to go through everything again and hoped that these two don't hurt him again. "What is it?"
"Sea!"
"Sea who?"
"See you later!" Air Jay responded as he and Naga throw Brunou out of the ship.
"(And ladies and gentlemen, the fat guy just left the ship!)" Kiko taunted telepathically.
Naga and Air Jay high-fived each other, now they have a new and much better ship than their last one and they are going to use it to get home.
Brunou and his troups just floated in the water, seeing the Trio running away with their ship, leaving them with a ship that is all rotten and nearly broken.
"Why me?" Brunou wined.
"Oh shut up Brunou! Instead of complaining start thinking of a better way to make a living." Lim complained.
-------
After ridiculing Brunou and his troupes, Air jay and Naga start to discuss their next step.
"So this is the place where the guy who is going to activate the crystal is?" Air Jay asked pointing to the map.
"Exactly."
"Alright, so we are here…." He said pointing to the water of the map. "So we are going to sock in this town, Zelfiria. It's the nearest place to dock and it will lead us to our destination."
"Zelfiria?" Naga asked.
"Yes, it is a town very well recognized by his wine and some people say that the best sorcerers come from that town."
"I know that. But what you don't know is that Lina is from that city."
The news caught Air Jay by surprise. "Really?"
"Yes, when I was traveling with Lina I discover she's from that city. And like you said Air jay the best sorcerers come from that town, that is why Lina has a great knowledge of magic."
"I see……now I understand. Do you know if she has any family there?"
"That I don't know much, but I think she has a sister."
Air jay let out a smirk. "Alright then. Then its time to speed things up a bit." He said as he prepared to unleash more sails.
Air Jay's sudden attitude change really puzzled Naga, he seems to be up to something, something not good.
To be continued……
Ramon: that's right people, the Trio is now going to Zelfiria.
Sunny: oh man, this is going to be so cool!"
