You may all be surprised by the quick update, but I had to make the next chapter quick because I had a great idea for it. I own none of the Kekkaishi characters or locations. I only own my original characters and locations, along with the plot.

Chapter 6

Immortal Woman, Eternal Mistress

NORMAL POV

"So our numbers have been dwindled." A man in a white cloak, with a 1 on the hood, said from his position at the head of a large silver table.

"Only by two, Cognizine has been incapacitated." A woman in an icy blue cloak, with a 2 on the hood, commented.

"Alright, we should send a rescuer for Cognizine, he's got valuable information we need." A woman in a green cloak, with a 4 on the hood, suggested.

"You'll go Lilium." The man in the white cloak ordered. The woman in the green cloak stood and removed the cloak's hood, revealing her pale white skin and light green hair. Her blue eyes had a soft expression on them, the one a caring mother would give her child.

"What of me? Or the rest of the Guardians?" A fidgety man in a yellow cloak, with a new 5 on the hood, asked.

"You all will remain here in the castle. I have assignments for you all though, Lilium you are excused and you may leave now." The man said.

"Yes Superior Xorin" (Zor-in) Lilium left the large white dining room in an insistent and vanished.

"Christeenala (Chris-teen-ah-la), you will remain in the castle and assist in the repairs. The shadow troops will not locate us again." Xorin ordered. "You as well Zinzin." The woman in blue and the man in yellow rose and removed their hoods. The woman had frosty blue hair and piercing golden eyes; the man had electric yellow hair with wild red eyes. Zinzin smiled crazily.

"You gave me a job cleaning? I am only good for destruction, remember that." Zinzin complained, crossing his arms. Christeenala turned to him and glared, making him cower slightly. She began walking out of the room and he followed her; they both phased straight through the white walls of the castle.

"Are you sure that promoting Zinzin to the newly vacated number 5 position was a smart idea?" A man with a dark blue cloak, and a 9 on the hood, questioned. "You of all people should know of the chaos he could bring."

"I do enjoy chaos, it is my job as the Guardian of Chaos to create it. However, Zinzin is a coward and is only talk. He only has worth for now, but when the time comes. The useless guardians will be eliminated, remember that Linzang." Xorin replied. Linzang removed his hood, revealing black hair styled to cover his right eye and light hazel eyes filled. Linzang remained indifferent and emotionless as he held his tongue.

"All others, youwillbe assigned to eliminate the Shadow Troops and the Kokuburo! By any means necessary!" Xorin announced, before vanishing in a cloud of black smoke. The others stood and vanished by passing through the walls.

SEN

"I will not tell." Cognizine refused to speak. He hasn't said a word about the Guardians despite mothers horrible torturing methods. I'm glad the mother called today off, canceling school today to clean the school. She pulled strings with the district to allow her to do so.

I suddenly smelt the most intoxicating aroma and a sweet voice lulling me to come near. It smells of Yoshimori's cakes and Smoked Salmon. A weird combination but an amazing smell. I can't resist anymore, I must go to it. I stood upand rush out of the principal's office, past the shaodow organization members who were assisting in cleanup.

I turned a blind corner and stopped at the sight. A huge tree had erected itself in the middle of the school. Its roots wildly dug through the schools foundation and its branched broke through the walls and objects, anything in its path. I looked around, following the wonderful aroma.

I rounded around the tree through newly formed halls that the broken walls and swerving branches created until I found a picnic table set up in a crater in the tree. The roof of the building was torn away, ripped apart by the tree's branches letting the sunlight reach in. Animals that recently moved into the tree flew or scurried around happily.

I followed the smell in my mesmerized state, mindlessly walking with no care of my safety. I sat at the table and suddenly came to my senses. I stood to leave but the tree refused to allow my departure. Its root raised from the ground and formed a wall around the exit.

I extended my claws in an attempt to cleave through the wall, butit was no use. I'm not strong enough.

"Hello, I am Lilium… that's pronounced Lily – um." A woman greeted me. She has a similar smell to the others, but her aura is more powerful. Her pastel green hair gently fell from her head, with a large braid resting on her chest. Her kind blue eyes looked directly at me with a sincere smile gracing her lips. She's gorgeous, wait…. What….

"Lily-um…"I responded. She nodded slowly and happily.

"I'm here to take you to where you belong. You belong in the Guardians' Castle. Come to where you belong." Lilium said in a soothing, motherly voice.

I shook my head no, "I…. I don't wanna go…" She looked surprised at my reaction. She immediately regained composureand smiled at me.

"Oh, a confused little thing you are-"

"No! I don't wanna go!" She glared at me for interrupting her. Suddenly a wonderful smell overcame me again. She smiled at me and extended her hand. I noticed how pretty she looks… how she glows in the sunlight…how nice she is, she wants to help me….

"SEN! Sen, are you in there!" I turned around and saw him behind the branch wall. I turned and ran over to the wall and put my arms through the branches like they were bars.

"Yoshimori! Help me out of here!" I shouted and he nodded. I backed up and he put a kekkai around the branches and it exploded. The branches were unscathed. I pounded on them again, trying to get to Yoshimori.

"How dare you!" I turned and saw Lilium infuriated. She was shaking with anger. "How dae you ignore me! No one should be able to resist me! How can you?"

I gave her the "are you stupid?" look. "I'm 100%, absolutely to my core, gay. That's kind of why." She looked at me. Now why is she giving me the "are you stupid?" look?

"It doesn't matter. You could be a lesbian ant and it would still work. My mist intoxicate anyone and everyone. How can you resist me?" Lilium shouted again. Do all Guardians have problems? Terratina was sadistic, Cereza-Torina was just plain crazy, this one's so spoiled she has a temper tantrum when something goes wrong. That Cognizine man is so loyal to the Guardians he's like a dog.

"I guess I'll have to actually do some work." Lilium put her hand to her face an shook her head. The branches started moving underneath her and formed a throne. She graceful sat in the throne and crossed her legs. She put her arm on the arm rest and rested her chin on her fist. The throne suddenly shot up high into the air and she looked down at me from above.

Branches suddenly shot at me. They weren't as thick as other branches so I tried cutting through them with my claws. They were easily severed and they fell to the ground and turned to dust. She laughed manically from above as the branches shot almost endlessly at me. Suddenly the laughter stopped and I looked up at her.

A kekkai had formed around her head and she was glaring down at Yoshimori from her high up position. I looked over at Yoshimori, who was concentrating with every bit of his being. It's amazing how he can make a kekkai over such a long distance. He angrily exploded the Kekkai.

He looked over to me and smiled at me worriedly."Are you alright, Kitty?" I blushed at my nickname. He smiled at me, but his face slowly changed to a face horror.I looked behind me a saw Lilium still there. I drew my claws again and prepared to fight.

I looked closer at her and saw that her head was completely gone. Green vines were weaving there way to recreate her head. Once they made the shape, they turned intomuscles and then skin appeared. Her hair magically appeared, exactly the way it was before and she glared at us with her new eyes.

We looked at her in horror and she smirked. "I'm immortal! No one's ever bettered me on the battlefield."

I looked over at Yoshimori and whispered. "Try catching all of her in a kekkai. Maybe she can't recover if there's nothing left to regenerate from." Yoshimori nodded and I jumped towards the giant tree. She looked at me and laughed manically.

"You think you can beat me? The 4th ranked guardian? The Serenity of Lavender?" She laughed again at the end of her shouting. I speed around the attack branchesas I wall jumped up her organic throne. A large thorn rose fron the pillar, but Yoahimori kekkaied it before I ran into it. She scowled at me and began shouting again.

"Go away brat! You may have defeated Lady Death and the Sadistic Stone, but you won't kill me!" She shouted again, I jumped up to her and sliced in half, cleaving through her life scissors through paper. Her torso fell to the ground and turned to mulch, stuff that belongs in a compost bin.

I landed near the wall again as Yoshimori destroyed Lilium while she regenerated with a kekkai. I sighed in relief.

I smiled at Yoshimori, "We did it Yoshi, we killed the fourth strongest guardian." He smiled back at me. Our moment was short lived, as I felt her grab me and put me in a headlock. I looked up at her to see her kind, motherly facade back on. The inviting smell returned.

"Come one, are you sure you don't want to come to the castle? It would be a great place for you to be... I would be there." She said with a kind smile. I was about to yell at her, but the gate was suddenly shred to pieces and she flew away. I ran over to Yoshimori and he grabbed me and hugged me.

"Who are you?" Lilium shouted at our saviors. I looked up and saw the two saviors. A short boy our age, 15, and a taller young man, 19 or20. The man was missing his left arm, in place of it were several tentacles, freely moving about as if they have minds of their own. The boy had spiky hair and to large claws in place of hands.

"Hiba!" "Gen!"

I'm sorry it took so long to get Gen and Hiba into the story, but there here now! Be happy! Anyway, would really love to get many reviews! This is my highest rated story, so please shower me with reviews! Tell me what you think of the Guardian characters. Do they seem like good villains? What about Lilium? Do you hate her yet?
