Hey everyone, welcome back to the third chapter! I couldn't sit still and do nothing because I wanted to update this story so badly!
Now I know I promised to update my Tales of a Yandere fic first, BUT, I'm a little stuck with the current chapter so it's gonna take a little longer, so it'll be updated somewhere this week or the next one. Depends on how long it's gonna take me to type it all down and such.
Furthermore! I got some sweet and interesting reviews but there's one person who I want to give some special thanks to!
And that person is "Lotus Sword"! and that's why I have her here as a special guest for today's chapter!
Lotus Sword: Hi everyone!
Me: I read your review and I was kinda surprised and flattered when you said you'd kiss the ground underneath my feet when I'd upload the third chapter.
Lotus Sword: You brought me all the way here for that?
Me: No no just kidding you don't have to, but you made me feel really happy with that comment so you can do the disclaimer this time!
Lotus Sword: Twilight-san does not own Inazuma Eleven GO Chrono Stone or any of the original characters, the story idea belongs to Shiranai Atsune.
Me: I only own my OC which I'm going to use later in the story! I have so many cool ideas but I'm not telling you them! MWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Have fun reading everyone!
- Normal P.O.V. -
The agonizing seconds passed by one after another, Tsurugi was frozen in place as he tried to form a quick plan as to what to do now. He knew he had to hurry, just a little longer like this and the girl would be lost in Werewolf territory for the rest of her life.
The idea came to him with the speed of light when he cursed the bright moon for making it hard for him to hide in the shadows. He could use his invisibility to attack the Werewolf. Sneaking away was no option because the pinkette would expect that and stop him before he had taken even half a step backwards. He shot a glance at Tenma telling him via their telepathy connection to run as soon as he'd give him the sign to go.
His companion's smile widened, meaning he had understood. Because superhuman-powers or not, Tenma was still exceptionally fast, maybe even faster than the teal-haired Werewolf who got closer to his goal by the second.
They waited for a second, trying to catch the right moment. A cloud passed by the moon, darkening their surroundings and forcing them all to use their Night Visions to see in front of them. But when Kirino had activated his vision, Tsurugi was nowhere to be seen.
"Tch," Kirino cursed underneath his breath. Tenma was about to run off and the pinkette tried to stop him in his tracks. "You're not getting aaahh!" Kirino was kicked in his back mid-sentence and was sent flying, he fell down a few metres away.
Tsurugi came back into vision and smirked.
"It took a single cloud to escape and humiliate you," He said, "As I expected, you're big words but nothing more!"
Kirino got up slowly, his back turned to the Vampire as he spat some of the sand out of his mouth. He chuckled before he turned around, his eyes were glowing fiercly in the dark, it didn't lessen when the cloud disappeared and the full radience of the moon was reigning the empty landscape again. The silver beams caressed his skin and Tsurugi saw that the hairs on his arm were turning a little thicker.
The vampire's eyes widened, the Wolf was going to transform! He could be in a disadvantage, a Werewolf's true strength came to the surface when they changed into their full fledged form.
"That wasn't bad, not bad at all," Kirino said. "But I still have a few tricks up my sleeve!" His face started changing too and his nose turned into a snout. The last human sound comming from his lips was a low hiss, it had been too long after all since his last transformation. But he paid no attention to the stinging pain in his flanks or the stiffness of his joints, he felt more alive now he was fully transformed. His senses were awoken by the full moon that made his pink fur look almost silver, a howl was building in his throat as he felt the desire come to let it go and echo through the night sky.
- Somewhere at the border of the Werewolves -
Kariya was panting, he had been running for a few minutes by now and he could see the border comming closer and closer in sight. His limps were burning from exhaustion, something that normally would not happen. He wondered about it and came to the conclusion it was because he was carrying leverage, even though she weighed next to nothing it was still a burden he had to carry no matter what the cost would be.
He had not dared to look back either, afraid it would slow him down and that the most horrible sight was there when he did. Which was his pink-haired friend being torn to pieces by the cruelty of the Vampires. He scolded himself for showing such distrust in his companion while he knew he could believe that the pinkette was smart enough to get out of there alive, the howl that tore through the nightsky should've been enough prove that his senpai could look after himself without him needing to worry about him.
Relieve was just washing over him when a hard kick in the guts sent him flying backwards, the girl swiftly stolen from his arms as the brown-haired Vampire landed gracefully onto his feet. Kariya bit the dust and a mouthfull of sand was the result, he coughed a few times and spat out the sand that had made its way into his mouth. He recovered quickly and grinded his teeth, feeling the last grains of dust being crushed between his molar teeth. He spat one last time before throwing the most dangerous glare to the little Vampire he could muster.
Wether Tenma was scared by it or not he did not let it show, he replied with an emotionless chuckle.
"You're fast," Tenma said.
"I would've been much faster without having to carry her," Kariya muttered underneath his breath.
"Want me to take her from you?" The Vampire said, showing him he had heard him muttering before throwing him a devious grin. "Seeming as she is too much to carry for you,"
"That would be nice," Kariya said, playing in on his game. "Since you offered your help to carry her for me you might as well bring her to our border. Honestly I have never met a Vamprie before who willingly helped the Werewolves to win."
"Too bad for you," Tenma said reverting back to his usual character, joke time was over. "But I have no intentions in betraying my Prince or my kind. If you want her on your side of the border than you'll have to take her from me and be faster."
"Fine with me, but don't complain later or call me a cheater when I beat you," Kariya said with his infamous cheeky grin present on his face as a shadow fell over his yellow eyes. "After all, a game contains losers and winners, someone has to lose in order for the other to win."
They stood still and stared at each other for a couple of moments, another battle was about to start and this one wouldn't start as friendly as the first one. Both parties felt the hungre for blood howl in their veins as they could litterally rip each other's throats out to silence it. And all of a sudden, as if someone had given them a sign, they jumped towards each other, flying in midair for one moment before lashing out at each other the next. Their nails grew, Tenma's turning into demonic claws while Kariya's turned into something more animalistic but not less monstrous though.
The teal-haired Werewolf managed to hit Tenma and create a few deep cuts on his upper arm, which caused the brown-haired Vampire to loosen his grip on the human girl. She was about to fall when Kariya pushed the Vampire aside and catched her just in time before her face would meet the ground in a little too close manner. He dashed off towards the border again but Tenma was nowhere near being defeated and he ran after them, he grabbed the Werewolf by the colar of his shirt and threw him backwards.
This time there was no one to catch Aoi before she would hurt herself in the onconscious state she was in. Her limp body fell to the ground fortunately breaking nothing, this hit would only cause a few small bruises and maybe a scratch or two either, nothing serious or anything. She let out a small groan that went unheard by both the Vampire and the Werewolf as they continued their battle. As if they had totally forgotten about the girl and their task of getting her to the safety of their inpenetrable castles and only remembered their hate towards each other as they tried to harm each other in the worst way possible.
This was no longer a simple battle, by the time they really got into it they were at the point where they tried not only to simply exhaust the other and force them to surrender. No, they had passed that stage a long time ago, right now they tried to go as far as to seriously injure the other or even kill. Nothing was crazy enough now that their hatred was at its max point.
Their fists met the other's body, though non of them was showing they were hurt for they kept on lashing out to each other. They kicked, they hit, they scratched, everything to hurt the other and it still wouldn't be enough. And as they were carried away in their fight that turned somewhat tiring to describe, they totally failed to notice how slowly, the sleeping spell the pink-haired Werewolf had cast, was starting to wear off!
Unknown to everyone, the last human girl slowly opened her eyes and looked around her in a dazed state, not sure at all about her whereabouts or what she had gotten herself into.
- back to the other fight. -
Kirino had transformed into a Werewolve, his teeth were pearly white as they shone dangerously in the bright moonlight. The Werewolf growled, defying the Vampire who stood frozen on the spot. As couragious as Tsurugi could be, this was the first time he stood eye in eye with a full transformed Werewolf! He was not gonna lie about it since he was a little scared at the sight, they were bigger than regular werewolves, their paws were much stronger and could easily break a mere person's bones and their claws should never be forgotten.
They were monstrous, even though only the tips were visible Tsurugi knew that the minimum length of their claws was about three inches long! A good slash could behead a person in the blink of an eye!
Kirino growled lowly, like he was almost laughing at the prince for the surprised expression that was still present on his face. Tsurugi unfroze, he turned his stare into a glare and prepared himself for yet another battle he was about to throw himself into. He clenched and unclenched his fists in a slow manner, something he did whenever he felt a little nervous and something big was about to happen.
The pink-haired Werewolf was the first one to wake up from his statue-like state and move with an immense speed towards the prince who seemed to notice only a little too late that his enemy, which was almost soaring at him, had moved from his original place. This resulted with him being knocked over by the Werewolf, he landed a few metres back and landed with a soft thud. He coughed once due to the impact but was quick to recover.
The prince was at his feet in a second and saw the Werewolf comming at him again, his fangs bared this time. But he was better prepared this time and managed to dodge the attack and gave a firm kick in the Werewolf's guts. The Wolf, however, did not seem to feel it and swiftly turned around and jumped towards the Vampire.
He landed on his chest and pressed the Vampire to the ground, knocking every bit of oxygen out of the other's lungs as he growled in his face. Tsurugi knew that if he did not manage to get the Werewolf off of him anytime soon, he'd be done for. He almost felt the fangs of the oversized dog at his throat tearing the flesh and the life out of him.
He could only think of one thing to do and quickly started to gather the cold energy that was spread throughout his body. The Wolf wanted to back off, seeing what the other was about to do, but still got hit with the Vampire's Freeze Vision. It wasn't a full hit, Tsurugi had aimed to break his opponent with his special powers but due to the earlier impact and a little lack of power he hadn't managed to fully concentrate.
Kirino's body froze, he did not turn into a block of ice though, but his normally soft fur became all spiky and his muscles seemed to become stiffer by the second. The Werewolf now had quite alot of trouble to move around normally, he swayed from side to side but managed to remain standing. He let out another deep howl and ran after the Vampire again. He managed to sweep him off of his feet but failed to let him fall for the Vampire had found his balance in midair and landed onto the Werewolf's back.
The prince smirked, feeling he had the upper hand now and he transformed his hand into demonic claw and with a quick slash he cut into Kirino's neck. Blood was spilled onto the pink greyish fur, giving it a deep red color. To Tsurugi it smelled foul, like food that had been rotting in a dumpster for too long. It seemed like he was almost going to win but Kirino managed to throw the prince of his back.
But that was also the last move he managed to perform in his Werewolf state, his figure started to shrink and his fur slowly pulled back. The snout vanished as well as the claws and Kirino was back to his humanoid form in a matter of seconds. He was forced to leave his full form due to he deep cuts that were still visible in his neck while his face paled due to the bloodloss.
"Giving up already dog?" Tsurugi pestered him.
"I'm far from done Your High..." He was stopped mid-sentence when an agonizing scream tore the night appart. Kirino recognized that voice everywhere and his eyes widened. Kariya!
Forgetting all about the prince and his own fight that was yet to be finished he dashed even faster than before towards the border where his friend was seeming to lose his share of the fight. Tsurugi followed him, curious to see what Tenma was doing to the teal-haired Werewolf that made him scream like this.
At their arrival they were greeted with a horrific scene, Kariya was laying on the ground, gritting his teeth to keep in the screams. Soft whimpers managed to slip from his mouth as he held onto his leg for dear life. It was standing in such an odd angle that one could immediately say it was broken, and not just at one place either, his lower leg was bended as well as his foot. A piece of bone, covered in in a ruby red liquid stuck out of his jeans and blood was forming a small puddle under his trembling body.
Tenma was looking down on him with a victorious smile on his face and some of the Wolf's blood on his clothing. "Seems like I'm the one to win this," He said.
"Kariya!" Kirino exclaimed as he rushed to his side and kneeled down beside him. He tried to pick him up but Kariya's pain-laced groan stopped him halfway. Kirino was at the verge of panicking, he hated to see his friend hurt like this and wanted to help him, but in order to do so he had to get him to a healer and the trip, he acknowledged with sadness, would be longer than his friend could manage.
"I.. I'm s..s..sorry Ki..Kirino-s..senpai," Kariya said in a weak voice before giving him an appologetic smile that was quickly contorted due to another wave of almost unbearable pain that shot from his leg to the farthest corners of his body. "I..I l..lost.."
The Werewolf went limp in Kirino's arms as he passed out.
Kirino scowled, he had to make sure his companion wouldn't die on him in the middle of the desert, but there was another and probably more important task waiting for him to fullfil! Above everything else he had to make sure that the Last Human would be safe and sound in the castle of his Prince. He threw a glare at the vampires, and that's also when he noticed.
Non of them was carrying the girl!
Then where was she? He looked around quickly, but all he saw was desert, sand and cacti! She was gone! This gave him a little hope as well as stress, his sleeping spell must've worn off! That meant that she could've sneaked off! But where?
It took him another moment to figure that she would've probably run into the nearby forest only a hundred metres away from them. She could be in Werewolf territory! If only there was someone within his range he could contact via his telepathy and warn them that the girl was right underneath their noses!
"What are you so happy about dog?" Tsurugi asked in a slight surprised tone as he raised one eyebrow in curiousity.
Kirino had failed to notice that he had started to smile when his suspicions had been confirmed.
"Nothing really," Kirino said as he shrugged and stood up while carrying his kouhai in his arms, making sure his injured leg was in the right position to minimalize the pain. "I was just thinking, something quite interesting actually!"
"What are you talking about?" Tenma asked, not liking how confident the pink-haired guy had suddenly become.
"Look around you," Kirino said. "What do you see? Or actually, what is it that you don't see?"
The Vampires exchanged questioning glances before it hit to them and they quickly scanned their surroundings before they stated, with reluctance, that they had lost the girl from sight and now... she was nowhere to be seen!
Tsurugi wanted to say something but the familiar smell of blood stopped him. It stopped everyone.
He turned his head into the direction the delicious scent came from and saw a flash of blue disappear behind the first line of trees in Werewolf territory.
- Aoi P.O.V. -
When I had woken up I had been scared, the sight that greeted me when I had opened my eyes was one of my captors fighting with a creature that could only be a vampire. I had crawled away, afraid they would notice me but they didn't. I had kept crawling backward untill I felt couragious enough to get up and start running.
There was not enough time to think about where I was going, as long as it was away from them! I saw the thick forest in the cornor of my eye and ran towards it, once in there they would have harder time finding me!
An agonizing scream did not make me stop in my tracks when I had almost reached the safety of the trees which was only a few more metres away from me. I ran through a pair of low-hanging branched and had to cover my face with my arms to keep them from poking out my eyes.
Due to that I tripped, and I cursed as I felt a stinging pain on my knee, I looked and saw a cut where a thick bloodred pearl was growing slowly in the cornor untill it slowly slid down my leg. I cursed again, every supernatural being around would probably smell me and come after me. So I took my scarf that had been tied around my head like an improvised headband and wrapped it around my knee before I continued on my escape.
- Normal P.O.V. -
The Vampire prince dashed towards the trees, feeling his desperation getting the better of him while Tenma shouted after him.
"Your Highness! Don't! We can't pass their territory!" The brown-haired Vampire had warned him but he ignored it. He felt the surprised stares from both his friend and the Werewolf as he came closer and closer to the border. The scent of blood had become a little fainter.
"She must've covered it!" He thought as he quickly took a deep breath through his nose and managed to locate her, she was right in front of him and only twenty metres into their territory! But by passing the border he could get himself and his people into great trouble but he didn't care at the moment though, having her was all that mattered now!
She must have heard him comming because she seemed to quicken her pace, and that was the last bit of encouragement he needed to cross the line and step onto unfamiliar grounds.
He made a quick sprint and she finally came into his sight, she was crying, he could hear her panicked whimpers as she tried to run away from him. Not that it would work though, he had no idea why it took the Werewolves hours to chase her when they could run faster easily? Had they been playing a cat and mouse game with her?
Tsurugi made one final sprint, summoning every last bit of power and energy to make a jump and he appeared in front of her where he stopped. She ran into him and fell back onto the ground as she shrieked. And finally, for the first time, did their eyes meet. Tsurugi felt himself getting lost into those stunning saphire-blue orbs of her. She tried crawling back, scared of the Vampire who had materialized in front of her.
But the navy-haired guy was quicker than she was and grabbed her wrist and swiftly pulled her up.
"No!" She shouted and started to strugle against his grib, he simply wrapped his arm around her waist to get her to stop moving and leaned down to whisper something in the girl's ear.
"Finally," He whispered in a low voice that send shivers down Aoi's back. "You're mine,"
AND I'M ENDING IT HERE!
I'm sorry if it was bad and rushed but I'm not good at writing battle scenes!
I also appologize if it is boring!
But would you still leave a review?
