7. The Annoying Water Nymph and loss of the Elementine soul
As The Undertaker got to shore, he rested the four heroes on the shore. Suzy was still looking gray as ever when she fell in water. Mrak used his fire power and Suzy's skin and clothing got back its warm color. After helping Suzy, He looked at Jua and his Obsidian Blade sheathed half way. He then looked at Sumey and put a bird like chain in her hand. Mrak saw that the water to bubble and vibrate. He said to Sumey "Soon, you will know who you truly are, Sumey." Then the Undertaker started to walk into the swamp and disappeared. A water nymph came rising out of the water with three fish on her sword. She had fox like ears and blue marks on her cheek wearing her blue skirt and blue top. "Whoa that was awesome, and I was a shipwreck….I wonder if anyone survived?" She said to her self.
As she walked up the shore, she saw shocked to see four bodies laid on the sandy shore. She put her fish in a net, sheathed her sword, and looked at the four. The person that got her attention the most was Sesshomaru. She had a warm lovely feeling in her as she sat close to him and moved hair from his face. Sesshomaru opened his eyes and saw a faded figure "who are you?" said Sesshomaru.
The nymph responded" My name is Melodie….I'm your future wife, remember?"
Sesshomaru got up and moved away from Melodie. He woke up Sumey, and Suzy but Jua started to snore which made it hard for him to wake up. Suzy said "try using this."
She gave Sesshomaru a coconut and he dropped it on Juasaki. Juasaki started to scream his head off. "Thanks for coming to Realty and leaving Dreamland!" said Sesshomaru.
"Ouch" Juasaki cried. "God damn it that hurts…Where's Rave?"
After all of them were wake, they see Rave surfing on a board and made it to land safely. Everyone stared at Rave and he replied, "What did I do?"
After the heroes were done resting, they followed Melodie to her village called Waterlagoon. She kept hug her arms around Sesshomaru. Then Jua asked "did you know where I can find your temple?"
Melodie quickly said "yes, you must be catering for our wedding; this is how I want the wedding to go…"
She started to give Jua a list of things to do. He interrupted and said, "Sorry I'm not a cater, I'm the obsidian warrior. I just want to know where your temple is."
"Oh!" she replied, "it right over there."
Juasaki and Rave went to the temple. Sumey and Suzy stood helplessly watching Sesshomaru trying to escape from Melodie clutches. "JUA, DON'T LEAVE ME HERE WITH THIS PSYCHO!"
Jua entered watery like temples with its glass pipes with running purify water and statues and fountain squirting water. Rave went to talk to one of the priest and asked of a dark villain name Gangrel passed by. The Priest replied fearfully "No, the dark one has not showed up. It's heard that he is after the souls of the Elementines, which I ashore you, that it will be safe."
Rave then said "can we see the soul?"
The priest led Rave and Juasaki to an underwater tunnel and showed a metal door. He drew a wing on door and it opened. The metal door opened to a chamber and in the middle was the water Elementines crystal soul on pedestal. It was an oval crystal with an image of the water bird looks like with its wings folded in and head down. Rave said, "This must be what Gangrel after."
Suzy came in. "That looks like the exact thing that shadow king stole, only it was fire crystal soul."
"I think I know why Gangrel is stealing the souls." Said Jua
"Let me hear it from you, and you get it wrong, I'll help" Rave reposed
"After the Elementines were turned to stone, their souls were kept alive. The souls are reborn by where they originated like fire bird was born in volcano Phoen, and water Elementine was born from ocean."
"Keep going!" said Rave.
"If we get to the souls before Gangrel, we can restore the birds from stoned curse"
"You've got it, obsidian!" said Rave proudly.
"Good priest…my I take hold of the soul so it dose not fall in the hands of shadow king?" he asked.
"You may great obsidian."
Juasaki didn't want to be called the great obsidian even if he did hold the sword. The priest wrapped the bird in a cloth and handed it to Juasaki. Then, Jua put the crystal in inside coat pocket and left to the outside with Suzy and Rave to look for Sesshomaru Sumey and Melodie.
Sesshomaru still tried to remove Melodie but he gave up. "Hey, what's up?" Melodie responded "I'm going to help you guys on your journey."
Juasaki was surprised how quick she wanted to join. "Sumey has told me all bout your journey to save the birds and I decide to help because my Sesshy wants the same thing so we can live happily ever after."
Sesshomaru shock his hand after being held under Melodies grip.
Night approached and the only noise they can hear was splashing water and buzzing mosquitoes. Miroku try to sneak in temple and found the metal door. He used hurricane wind attack and took down the door. He found nothing "rah where is it?" Miroku screamed.
Guards came in the temple and priest screaming for Juasaki trying to look for him. He and the others got up. "What happened?" Jua ran to the priest when he collapsed and tried to breath. "Obsidian…the shadow king's minions are in the temple. They are after crystal as you said before."
Sesshomaru told Suzy and Sumey to watch over crystal.
Rave decided to watch over the girl, and Melodie followed Jua and Sesshomaru.
As soon as they reach the temple stair, they saw Miroku and Miekie standing at the top of the stairs. "We know you have it. Fork it over!" said Miroku.
"I don't have it with me." said Juasaki pulled out his obsidian blade and used Flame Scar. It misses. Miroku uses wind whirl and both, Miroku and Miekie charge after them. Melodie pulled out the aquatic sword from her sheath and used whirlpool on the tornado. Miroku and Miekie got soaked and fell to the ground. "We don't care if we can't find, but master will." said Miroku.
"What do you mean?" asked Sesshomaru.
All of a sudden, Sumey screamed. "Gangrel…that bastard" Juasaki ran back for her but Miekie and Miroku escaped. Sesshomaru and Melodie went after Jua. They found Rave tied upside down on mossy tree branch, Suzy in swamp water and Sumey crying in the corner. Jua hugged Sumey and tried to clam her down.
"He took off with it." Sumey cried. Jua checked his pocket and said "He just needs two more, we can't let him get them" said Jua.
Next Morning, Rave's wings felt better and he was to fly off with Juasaki, Sesshomaru, Suzy Melodie and Sumey. One thing was on Jua mind, "If Gangrel collects all four souls, what will become of this world?"
