Chapter 21- Tamera's death??"Keep Tamera out of this," Len spoke in a deadly manner. "This is between you and me."
Xui pulled on a sour face.
"'Glad there is at least one place where you can say 'you and me'. I thought all traces of that saying, about us had disappeared from your vocabulary," she spoke sadly.
"I said this fight is between you and me. Not anything else. After you're defeated, you can take your stupid curses and spells and get out of here!" A painful expression crossed Xui's face and the wind blew harder.
"That's not fair Tao Len!" Tears flew down her pale cheeks. "You think I'll leave so easily! Haven't you seen how much I'm crazy about you! Don't you know! It's all because of you!! And now you just expect me to leave?! I left my family for you, Len!"
Len's eyes widened but he regained his wits quickly.
"But I never asked you to leave anyone! I never even talked to you properly!"
"That's not true!" Xui snapped back, pushing wet strands off her face.
Tamera watched in silence as the two argued on in the never–ending black night. Silent tears brimmed in her eyes. Xui was never going to let her have Len. Never. She was so determined- so powerful. How could Tamera ever beat her? Tamera watched the purple haired girl rant and rave and Len replied, ranting and raving as well… This was going to get them nowhere. Quietly Tamera stood up, her hands tightly clasped in front of her.
"Len-" Tamera started but a thin pine twig zoomed past her, cutting her off. Tamera gasped and snapped her attention to the source.
"No one said you could enter Tammy!" Xui spoke, her eyes glimmering furiously.
"I told you not to touch her!!" Len thundered and charged at Xui, his kwandao pointing directly at her.
"But I didn't touch her!" Xui retaliated and jumped away from the kwandao. Len hit a tree with the weapon instead, snapping the bark in two. "Len, you're getting me angry! I planned not on hurting you at all but you'll leave me no choice if you continue to pursue me this way!"
"I don't care what you planned or how I affect those stupid plans! I just want you to disappear! And if you care for your plans so much- take them with you!" Len was breathing heavily now.
"Fine!" Xui yelled, tears flying out in all directions. "You hurt me Tao Len, and now-" her eyes turned the bright red color, "Now you'll pay!!"
She pointed her pale hand towards him and flicked one long finger. In the blink of an eye, Len's kwandao snapped in two. Tamera's mouth dropped open. She had to stop this! Otherwise Len could get seriously hurt!
"I've still got my hands and legs!!" Len shouted and dived at Xui.
"NO!! STOP IT!" Tamera stood up and slowly walked between them. A tense expression was etched on her face. Xui and Len stopped and looked at her. Xui suddenly fired up.
"I thought I told you not to butt in!!" she yelled and held out her hand. The wind breezed furiously, blowing up leaves and dust. From out of nowhere, a long metal stick appeared on her palm. She closed her fingers around it and before Len could do anything to stop her, Xui had jabbed it in Tamera's stomach.
"Ah," Tamera's mouth dropped open, her hands closed around the stick emerging from her stomach. Tears spurted out of her bulging eyes as blood gushed out from around the stick, staining her white shirt. Xui wore a satisfied expression, her lips curved in a sneer. Len just stood there, his eyes wide and reduced to dots- his hand held out, the fingers twitching.
Tamera turned her face towards Len and dropped to her knees. Blood dripped down on the forest floor. Her pain could be seen on her face- her expression utterly horrified and painful. Her hands still clutched the stick, but no energy was being put in pulling the weapon out now. Tearing her eyes away from Len and Xui, Tamera looked down at her stomach, at the blood spurting out of it, at her red hands and shirt. Finally, letting out a low moaning sound, her eyes rolled back and she slumped forward, in a puddle of her own blood. Her hair blew wildly with the wind and her body lay there- motionless, lifeless……
