(Hey guys! In between vacations, just got back from one today, leaving for one in a couple hours. I wanted to fit this in between my mom saying "Oh come on, I know they aren't gray but will you please wear them?" and me saying "I thought you wanted me to tell you if I didn't like clothes you pick out for me!" and her saying "Forget that, I'm packing these, just wait, you'll get there and wear them." And me saying "Yeah good luck with that." So you know. I really don't like color. Especially wearing color. It was light green and this magenta thing! Nope. I refuse. I only wear the most awesome color in the universe, gray. So anyways, I don't have time for thanking before I have to leave for the airport, but I have read reviews and looked at who favorited or followed, so thanks to everyone. You guys are seriously awesome. Yay!
Anyways, I forgot to do this:
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Young Justice or Klarion. I own Eliza, Hexe, and Ryiah. And maybe any other OCs mentioned in this.
On with the story!)
"Not so fast, Ryiah." Klarion said. He saw that, while Eliza was in a sparkly bubble (he was so going to hold that against her later) and Teekl was in a cage, Hexe was in his human form, standing behind the she-demon. "And… Hexe apparently."
"A Lord of Chaos? How sweet, maybe you will be able to rescue your friend after all. I just realized that you can't get a good fight when your opponents in a bubble." Ryiah said. Eliza glared a bit more.
"I hate demons." She said.
"Don't we all?" Teekl said. Ryiah glared.
"Nope." Hexe said. Teekl hissed at him. He cowered back.
"So are you going to tell me why you have Eliza in a pretty bubble and my cat in a cage?" Klarion said.
"Are you going to tell me how you found us?" Ryiah asked.
"I know where all the powerful people are, your turn." Klarion said.
"I'm in a bit of trouble, Eliza will take my place in prison. As for the familiar, she got sucked in and refused to come to my side." Ryiah said.
"But Hexe did." Klarion said.
"Yes, he's been helping me for some time now, in fact." Ryiah said. Klarion glared at Hexe and the cat's hair momentarily caught on fire. He hissed, although it wasn't as natural in his human form, and got rid of the fire. Klarion smirked.
"What was that for?" Hexe hissed.
"For betraying my friend." Klarion said. He looked back at Ryiah. "Time to have some fun, good by demon." Klarion threw a fire ball at Ryiah, who jumped out of the way.
"I've lived for centuries, witch boy, fought experienced lords of chaos and won, what makes you think you can defeat me?" Ryiah said.
"You kidnapped his girlfriend." Teekl said. Klarion glared at the cat, but was blushing. Eliza did the same.
"Shut it Teekl!" he yelled. The cat snickered.
"I'll shut up when you let me transform so I can get out of this cage and you can have a chance at winning, did you forget or something?" Teekl said.
"No, I was just… waiting for the right moment." Klarion said. He started to change Teekl into her monster form. She started growing bigger, and her canines longer.
"Hexe! Put Teekl in the bubble before she gets out!" Ryiah screeched. Hexe pushed Teekl into the bubble before she could fully transform. She was turned back into a regular cat. Teekl snickered.
"That would have been a good idea if you remembered something." The bubble started flickering the second Teekl was in. It disappeared and she and Eliza fell onto the floor. "My collar helps with force fields. Gets me out of them if I'm trapped, increases the power of one's my owner makes." Eliza stood up, Teekl was transformed into her monster form, and Klarion was laughing his head off.
"Ryiah, Hexe, you guys are idiots!" he said.
"Shut it witch boy!" Ryiah launched herself at Klarion and started tearing at him with claws that hadn't been there a second ago. Eliza blasted her with fire and sent her flying, then helped Klarion up. Ryiah had hit her head on one of the shelves, some of the glass jars broke, and slumped to the floor. Klarion made a bubble around Hexe, who immediately turned back into cat form from it, then he and Eliza walked over to Ryiah. She had glass stuck in her back from hitting and shattering the jars on the shelf, and one particularly large piece went through her back and pierced her heart. Ryiah the Heart Stealer was dying.
"Aren't so tough now, are you?" Eliza said. She kneeled next to the dying demon. Ryiah started shifting into her natural form, her skin and eyes turned red, her hair black, and her hands had large claws. Eliza thought she was dead already. All of a sudden, Ryiah turned her gaze towards Eliza, and shot out one clawed hand, piercing her heart. Eliza let out a gasp, Klarion yelled and shot the demon with fire. Ryiah didn't seem as affected by the fire now and chuckled.
"Make sure your opponent is dead before coming close." She yanked her claws out of Eliza's chest. Blood was slowly streaming from the hole, but then the weirdest thing happened. The blood turned black, and Eliza's eyes turned red. She fell back onto the floor.
"What… what happened…" Eliza gasped. Ryiah chuckled again.
"Welcome to hell, Eliza the Heart Stealer…" the demon said. She finally took her last breath and died, flickering back and forth between demon form and Eliza's form. Klarion got down on his knees by Eliza.
"Eliza… are… are you ok?" he mumbled. He looked at the wound. "Please don't die… I won't tease you for being in a pretty bubble if you live… I won't throw tantrums… I'd even give up murdering people…" the black blood started returning to the wound on her chest, and Eliza sat up.
"Klarion. I'm not dead. Seriously. And giving up murder? How? It's just so fun!" Eliza said. Klarion screeched and fell back at her sudden... undeadness. "She wasn't trying to kill me. Just curse me."
"Your… alive?"
"No duh." Eliza said. Klarion hugged Eliza. She was shocked, but hugged him back.
"I thought I was gonna have to never kill again…" Klarion said.
"Now Klarion, I would never do that to you. Even if I did die, I would come back and smack you for giving up your fun." Eliza said. Klarion pulled away and smirked.
"Even in Hell you would annoy me." He said. Eliza smacked his arm but smiled. "Kidding, I would miss your sarcastic comments every day. I couldn't live without you Eliza." And then something much more surprising then a hug happened, because he kissed her. It was quick, and Klarion blushed a lot after, but Eliza was left… slightly dizzy. She recovered in a moment and smirked.
"And I couldn't live without your tantrums and mood swings." She said. A giant red portal opened up behind them.
"Heart Stealer!" someone bellowed through it.
"Guess that means me, always knew I'd end up in Hell." Eliza said. Eliza got up and walked over to the portal. Teekl meowed at her feet and Hexe still sat in a bubble at the other side of the room.
"Do you have to go?" Klarion asked.
"You can't stay for another minute?" Teekl said.
"Don't leave me with Klarion! Please! He'll torture me! I'm sorry!" Hexe said.
"I think it wouldn't be very smart of me to not go, but I'll find a way through it. I'll be back soon. And… fine. Klarion, let Hexe out of the bubble. He was only doing what he learned from me. I did teach him lying and betraying was okay and to look out for himself." Eliza said. Klarion glared at Hexe one more time before the bubble disappeared and Hexe fell to the ground. The cat ran over to his owners feet. Teekl hissed at him.
"I'm sorry Teekl, can you forgive me?" Hexe said.
"I'll think about it. For the next few millenniums. You know, around the time I forget about you betraying." Teekl said. "But I will seriously kill you if you do that again. Or make Klarion turn you into a mouse. Yeah, that would be fun." Eliza picked up Hexe.
"I give you permission to do so if he does this again but I have to go. I'll be back… eventually." Eliza turned away from Klarion and Teekl. "Good bye, Klarion, Teekl."
"Don't say bye. Say 'see you later.' Bye is too… final." Klarion said. Eliza smiled.
"See you later, Klarion." She said, then she stepped through the portal.
"She'll be back. She has to come to Earth to get the hearts." Teekl said.
"Teekl… demons don't allow… relationships. It's the reason Ryiah got cursed to cater the hearts back and forth in the first place." Klarion said.
"I have a feeling Eliza can figure out a loop hole. Besides, she will have help." Teekl said. She jumped onto his shoulder. "Trust me." Then Klarion realized something. Ryiah had looked like Eliza. Ryiah had what Eliza hid under a hood, and couldn't protest. He scrambled over to the dead demon, seeing her flicker back and forth between herself and Eliza every once in a while. He had one hand on the hood. "Leave it Klarion. Some scars aren't ready to be revealed."
"You know what's under there?" Klarion asked Teekl. Teekl just started cleaning herself.
"I am a cat. Cat's know everything."
(Yay! Finished! Okay, so this story will have two more chapter, next one is a "one year later" kind of thing, last one will explain some things on OCs, you know, extra stuff. And you guys didn't see what was under the hood, I'll tell you later. Maybe in next chapter, maybe in the OC profiles that will be posted in last chapter. Not too important. But I wanted to put in the whole "Cat's know everything" part. Because it's true. Cats rock. Anyways, review? Love to hear what you think. Romance in this story is almost inexistent, since they, while fifteen, act like eleven year olds quite often. Maybe a bit more in next chapter though. So leave a message saying what you think, it could be things like:
"Cool chapter, update soon" like is pretty much the standard (though I love hearing that). Or…
"Oh my god I love this make a sequel!" which is a bit more fan girl, and I don't really expect it. It could be…
"Work on your story, it isn't too good" like in the nice 'I don't like this but won't flame' way. It could be…
"You suck, go to hell, I hate you." Like in the flame way.
I honestly don't mind flames or criticism. I know I'm not the best author on here, but I'm glad you guys seem to have enjoyed this story. So…
See you next time!... next chapter… whatever.
Bye!)
