Character Brawl
You know how in Naruto ninjas have there "ninja way"? Well, I kind of have something like that. It's some principles I live by, rules, if you will.
#1. Remain loyal to your friends.
#2. Never give up, especially on your dreams.
#3. Help your friends fulfill their dreams, and protect them.
Now, watching Hayashi attempting to break Daisuke's dream was a clear violation to rule number three, so you can't really just expect me to stand and watch, can you? The problem is though, I know for a fact that I can't take Hayashi and Heki on by myself. I could barely take on one, let alone both of them at the same time.
The guardians appeared shocked when I character-naried before, so I'm guessing they're out. They can chara change, but that probably won't be enough. I guess I have no choice then.
"Halloween, if you want your egg back, you need to character-nari," I said sharply as I whipped me head towards him.
Before he answered, I turned to Natsume, but I didn't have to tell him anything. "Let's go everyone, we can't let him crush Daisuke-san's egg."
"Right," they answered.
"Character change!" they yelled with their charas.
Natsume got an olive laurel, I think those could be considered crowns back in roman times, and a wooden scepter, kind of like a shaman would have.
Sakura got chibi angel wings on her back and heavy looking bright silver chains wrapped around her hands that hung down from them.
Megumi got a white cape and the same golden moon staff that Yin had.
Mahou got a black cape and the same yellowish staff with a jade star on top that Yang had.
The guardians, minus Daisuke and I, attacked the two older teens. They created enough of a distraction to stop Hayashi from crushing Daisuke's egg, and gave me time to talk to Daisuke.
"I can't, I only learned about this whole character-nari thing yesterday," he said, frustrated that I expected so much out of him.
"You have to Halloween," I growled back. I knew I was expecting a lot out of him, but I couldn't do this alone. I could have asked one of the guardians, but I had the feeling if anyone could transform, it was Daisuke.
"I can't!" he yelled back at me.
"Yes you can, I believe in you!" I yelled back and grabbed his hand with one of my own. Yes, that was quite cheesy, but I had to try something.
Daisuke looked at me for a moment in shock, before he nodded his head, "Right."
My necklace started glowing, as usual (the blue stone glowed when I transformed with Kokoro), but what surprised me was that they were all glowing, and create a bright white light.
"Daisuke!" yelled Akuma.
"Yume, cha nya~," called Sakka.
"My own heart: unlock!"
"My own heart: unlock!"
The light completely enveloped us, and I lost sight of Daisuke. I saw Sakka flash me the peace sign, before going into her egg. I grabbed her egg and brought it into my heart.
"Character nari: Rockin' Artist Neko!"
"Character nari: Devil Rocker!"
The light let up, and I turned to look at Daisuke. He had on a leather jacket without a shirt underneath (insert fangirls dying here). The leather jacket was open and had some random zippers here and there on it. He had on black jeans that were really ripped at the knees and black combat boots. On his hand were red leather fingerless gloves that matched his red leather dog collar. Daisuke had a black guitar an his back that had red zigzags on it, and red devil horns and tail. Besides his outfit changing, he looked relatively the same, except his hair was even messier.
….....Daisuke has a pretty good body for a fifth grader. Huh, go figure.
"This outfit makes me look like a man whore," mumbled Daisuke who was blushing furiously.
"Yeah, but at least you have a nice body, nya," I said while smirking lazily. Stupid Sakka's personality, making me say things like that.......
"You think?" smirked Daisuke. Well, Akuma was obviously making him say that since his face was even redder.
"Ah, it seems kitty-chan has decided to come out and play."
I remembered the situation on hand, and quickly turned back to everyone else. It appeared that the guardians were taking a bashing, and I felt bad for getting distracted. They had managed to get Hayashi and Heki down, and Hayashi was now standing on the ground, while Heki was hovering right above it.
Natsume, Sakura, Mahou, and Megumi were facing them opposite a couple feet and were panting heavily with some cuts. I hardened my expression and bounded a couple feet until I was next to everyone else, and I heard Daisuke do the same.
"Oh look Hayashi, she brought a friend too," Heki grinned.
"How do you know Yume-san?" demanded Natsume.
Hayashi looked at me and raised and eyebrow while smirking, "awe, little Yume-chan hasn't told you about us?"
"They're some idiots that work for Easter. They were located in the NYC, since it is the city for dreaming, and we weren't exactly friends there either. What I want to know is why they're here," I said calmly while getting my guitar in position.
"The company's looking for something, so they decided to pull us back to Japan since they think they have a lead here," Hayashi tightened his one handed grip on his scythe, other hand holding Daisuke's egg.
"What are they looking for" demanded Natsume.
"Enough of the bantering, it's boooring~. I know Yume-kouhai has never liked it either," Heki whined while smiling a slightly malicious grin.
Everything was quiet for a moment, before I suddenly dashed for Hayashi, and reached for Daisuke's egg. My fingers were mere inches away from it, and out of of my peripheral vision I saw Hayashi smirk.
"My own heart: unlock!"
I jumped back just in time to avoid my head getting cleaved off by Hayashi's scythe. I back-flipped back a foot or two, and landed in a crouch, then fluidly stood up; gripping my guitar in one hand.
"Character-nari: Boss Reaper."
When the sparkles died down, I saw one of my least favorite character-nari standing before me. Hayashi had a long, tattered black trench coat that had a hood (that was currently down) and flowed in imaginary wind. He also had no shirt on under that (I swear I will kill you if you squeal) and had long black pants that had blood stains on them. On his feet were boots made of old yellowing bones and he had a skull mask covering his eyes. The most intimidating thing though, was the huge ass scythe he was holding. It was still about twice his size, like his old one, but was infinitely more threatening looking. It was held aloft my a wrought iron handle, that I wasn't sure if the whole guardians together could lift. The blade itself was a slick silver that faded to an obsidian color at the top. The most sickening thing though, was that it looked like it was stained with a light red color.
"Don't fear the reaper," Hayashi smirked when he noticed all of our stares. I'm sure everyone else was scared witless, I sure was when I first saw this transformation. I guess I'll take him on myself then.
"Show off," I muttered.
"Where was his chara? Where's the other guy's chara?" I heard Mahou ask.
"They must be hiding," I heard Sakura answer.
"He also must have given them Daisuke's egg since he's not holding it anymore. Charas, please go find Heki's charas and the egg," I ordered while not looking away from Hayashi. Heki must have been somewhere closer to everyone else, because he wasn't in my eye range.
"Good luck everyone, cha nya~!" Sakka yelled from inside me.
"Aw, She already figured it out, and Hayashi's fighting her too, no fair, no fair! I wanted to have fun too~," I heard Heki whine from somewhere behind me.
"What is he talking about?! He makes it sound like it'll be easier fighting us than just fighting Yume-chan!"
"There's five of them Heki, I'm sure it'll be somewhat interesting," drawled Hayashi.
It sounds ridiculous, but they might be right. I'm not extremely powerful, but I have experience in chara-nari fights. I doubt the guardians have ever fought somewhat else. Not only that, but they only have one person who can chara-nari, and this is the first time he has ever done it. Our only hope is that they can manage to overpower Heki through numbers, and I can handle Hayashi. It'll be even better if the charas fine Daisuke's egg, that way we an split after.
"Don't let them psyche you out guys!" I yelled and lifted my guitar into position again.
"Enough talking, let's fight," Hayashi said and ran towards me. A bright light emitted from behind me, so I figured Heki character transformed. Well I guess there's only one chara with the egg now.
I nimbly jumped over Hayashi as he swung his scythe at me, and yelled as soon as I landed, "Note bomb!"
Multiple colored notes came out of my strings when I strummed my guitar and flew towards Hayashi. Unfortunately, the reaper was a lot harder to hit than a X-egg. He dodged all of the music notes, and they exploded onto the ground, leaving a sticky blob a paint.
"Death Notice!" he yelled and his scythe began glowing red. He slammed his scythe into the ground and a huge crack in the earth headed towards me. Red ghost hands came out of the ground and attempted to grab me.
I dodged away from them, thankful for my flexible limbs. I jumped high into the air, hands following me, and flicked my tail in agitation. Could they just leave me alone?
"Here kitty, kitty," I looked up in horror and realized that Hayashi had somehow gotten above me.
I was boxed in.
He brought his scythe down on me and, thinking quickly, I tucked away from it, so it just missed me. I then grabbed Hayashi's scythe and pulled up so I flipped. When I got some air, I kept my hold on the scythe and bent until I my feet were on Hayashi's back (he bent over when he tried to "reap" me). I quickly let go of the scythe and pushed off of Hayashi's back so I was even higher in the air, and had pushed Hayashi towards his hands. This whole thing had taken a couple of second, because if it hadn't, he would've reacted and I would've been done for.
"Note bomb!" I yelled again and sent many multi-colored notes into Hayashi's back.
I heard him grunt in pain as he started hurtling towards the ground. Fortunately, or unfortunately, his hands were still there so they caught him, and lowered him gently to the ground. I began falling towards the earth, and landed heavily on the ground. I thanked my chara for the fact that cats always land on their feet.
I looked calmly at Hayashi, who was currently attempting to stand up with all the paint that was weighing him down, and cursing up a storm. I was really grateful for the slight respite, because I was freaking tired from that last maneuver. I should be good to go in a minute though.
"I still say your character-nari is based off of Hidan," I said flippantly while I looked at him. I mean, seriously, he curses, has the whole "reaper" thing, and even doesn't have a shirt. Those are the three things I would use to describe Hidan (He's from Naruto, if you didn't know).
"Oh shut up, brat," he muttered as he began shaking off paint from his boots.
"Your fight looks so fun Hayashi! Do you wanna trade?!" Heki called.
We both looked over and sweatdropped. Heki was in his character-nari and jumping up and down while looking at Hayashi. Everyone else was hunched over and panting. Yeah, I would pick a fight against Hayashi rather than Heki any day, if only because he has so much damned energy, especially in character-nari.
Heki was wearing a black and white checkered tank top under a baggy green jacket. The jacket was about three sizes too big for him, and had different patches sewed into it. He had a smiley face, Green Day (like the band), skull and crossbones, monkey face, and skateboard patches. He also had a small chain hanging from the upper right side of it, and two huge pockets on either side of the bottom. Heki was wearing baggy black pants and old banged up black converse. He was still wearing his orange beanie (I don't think I've ever seen him without it), and had the same skate/hoverboard as before. If memory serves, his character-nari is called "Freedom Skater".
"He's a monster," gasped Daisuke, who was in better condition than the rest.
"He's not even-"
"-tired," gasped the twins.
"We can't keep up much longer, Natsume," Sakura informed Natsume, who nodded.
"Looks like we're going to win this time-" started Hayashi with a victorious smirk.
"Hey everyone, we got Daisuke's egg!" yelled Yin, who flew into the clearing with the other charas behind her. The last to fly in were Kokoro and Dei, who were towing Daisuke's egg on their back.
"My egg!" yelled Daisuke as he quickly ran over to the charas and received his egg.
"See, you can count on us Dai. We wouldn't let anything happen to Akuma and my brother," Dei said with a wink and a thumbs up as his teeth flashed (Lee and Gai-sensei style).
"Heki! You said they wouldn't be able to find him!" yelled Hayashi who stomped over to Heki.
"I thought they wouldn't!" Heki defended while shrinking back under Hayashi's murderous gaze.
I walked over to the rest of the Guardians as the idiot duo argued and snapped out of their character-nari. "But I thought we were in the middle of a battle?" asked Megumi.
I shrugged, completely used to this as Daisuke walked over, already out of character-nari, and snorted, "Who cares."
Sakka came out of me, ending my character-nari, and flew over to the rest of the charas. I looked around for Hayashi and Heki's charas, but didn't see them. I figured that they didn't want the guardians knowing what they looked like for some reason and told them to hide.
"You must be tired after your first character-nari," I commented to Daisuke.
He nodded and said, "yeah, I'm more tired than I've been in a while."
"What should we do with them?" asked Sakura who was looking at Hayashi and Heki, who were currently wrestling.
"Maybe we should tie them up-"
"Or make them listen to Daisuke talk, that'd be real torture," the twins offered cheekily.
"Eh, despite being powerful, the two are idiots. When they're not fighting in evil mode, they're really not a threat," I deadpanned while watching the Easter goons fight and Daisuke chase the twins around.
"I think we should capture them and question what Easter if looking for," stated Natsume, ever the serious one.
"I guess-"
"Yume-chan, look out!" I heard my charas scream.
I looked behind me, and saw what looked like a giant blue transparent cat claw. My eyes widened, but I otherwise had no time to react as I was slammed into a tree, and searing pain from my back caused me to black out.
….............
Translation:
kouhai = junior (in age or grade, so underclassmen)
Okay, number six I done! This was my first time doing a real fight seen (not against eggs), so I hope I did okay. Daisuke ended up getting his egg back, but who attacked Yume at the end? I bet you could guess XD
Sorry if all the other anime references bug you, but that's probably not going to change unless I get complaints *sweatdrop*
Anyway, I hope you had a merry Christmas!
