Chapter Seven: Bandit's Dagger


Rogue was surprise-No more like amazed. Who would have thought that little girl could keep up with a man his size and speed, he was amazed.

The girl had jumped over the man, using his head as a push to get her on the air. She raised her hand, as if she was summoning and pointed at the man. Arrows were send flying to the man, the man easily dodged them but it looked like the arrows stopped before crashing into the ground and continued following the man.

Rogue noticed that those weren't normal arrows but ice arrows, making it more deadly than it already looked. The ice arrows followed the man wherever he went and the man came up with the conclusion that to go to the crowd. Still being followed by the ice arrows, the man kept running to the crowd.

Which cause a panic, many people gasped and tried to get out of the train station, fearing for the deadly ice arrows might attack them. People pushed and shoved their way through the entrance, and it had to be that someone pushed Rogue to the floor. 'Great just great. First, losing Frosch, then bumping into the damn girl and now this? Life as always sucked. He was about to stand up and tried to dodge the incoming arrows but the man was just running past him.

There was no way in hell the man was going to get away from the arrows after he got pushed on the ground because of him. He reached quickly enough to grab the man's leg making him unable to escape. If the crowd was going to get hit by the arrows then so should the man.

The girl took the chance to put a distance between the civilians and their fight, she yelled, "Ice Wall!"

Two massive ice walls block both exit and entrance of the train station. Smart, the girl had thought of a way to keep the normal people out of the fight in a few seconds. He kept watching both the man and girl in their unrelated conversation.

"Nice going, you bastard! You had to get a damn civilian inside here, now I can't use my "power" to kill you because it might traumatize the poor person here"

"Nice to see you too, Naomi! Can't you greet like a normal person would do instead of trying to kill me the moment you saw me. And speaking of the idiot here, he was the one that got himself in this so blame him"

"Let me think...hmm! Oh how about you and your stupid gang tried to experiment on me and Luke while we were asleep-And let's not forget the fact that you tried to molest me once!"

"That was a long time ago, so forget it! It was just a quickly peck on the mouth nothing to worry about"

"You tried to get your hand under my shirt, how can you not call that molesting?! Why am I even having this conversation with you?"

"Because you miss me or better yet you want to see Luke?"

"Luke?! What have you done to him, Zato! Leave Luke alone, he got nothing to do with my escape !"

"Yeah yeah yeah. Whatever. If you want to see him you need to come with me back to the laboratory"

"Then you'll have to do better than convincing me to go because of Luke if you can to drag me down to the freaking place, you bastard!" Reckoning the man to come at her as she talked.

"If you want that Nao then I'll be glad to bring you all beat up" He said, running to her with a dagger in his hand.

Rogue didn't know what to do, he was confused. He didn't know if they were friends or enemies because of their closeness with each other. He decided to continue watching until he knew what was going on. They thought he was a civilian so he guesses maybe he could pass as one.

The "Zato" guy launched himself at the girl, trying to stab her but failed terribly. The girl easily slipped under his attacked, kicking him under the chest. He clutched his chest before he fell to his knees, "Damn..Naomi..To think you have become this strong..But not strong enough to beat me!"

He disappeared for a moment, at of nowhere he was right behind the girl. Grabbing a hold of her long hair, she screamed in pain, "You -beep- ! How dare you touch my hair?!" He slung her to the wall, making her hit the wall badly.

"Aw-Damn" she cursed. She stood up, wipping the few strands of hair off her face.

By the looks of the battle, it seems that the man would win this and he would have no other choice than to fight himself. How troublesome.


"Come on, Nao. You can do so much better than that, why don't you use your powers instead of fighting like this?" Zato sneered at her, how dare that bastard say that to her knowing that they gave her this powers, making her into a monster. Ignoring his comment she began to summon her sword.

Naomi brought her left hand right below her right elbow, with her right hand she made a small cut with her nails. Making blue blood ooze out using the same nail to smear from the cut to her palm. "Ice Dragon Slayer: Ice Sword! " she shouted, her palm began to glow, she pulled out a icy cold sword from her palm.

She has never used the sword because it made her waste most of her magic power just by summoning it. And not only does she exposes herself to the fact that she could advance to the phase one of her "real" power which made her turn totally sadistic.

"Aren't you supposed to go through the phases first before you can summon it? I really want to see the first phase I heard from Gato that it was the best one. So use it to kill me as you said"

"Shut Up! I don't want to hear that from you, and if I tried to kill you with my powers I'll ended up killing the civilian too!"

"Then shall I kill him first?" That useless warning made her run fast as a person running away from the mighty Satan. Running to protect a civilian that probably even bullied her but she never failed to protect a innocent bystander.

She could hear as the dagger was send flying to the civilian(Thanks to her Dragon Slayer Magic), fearing that she might not make it in time, she threw herself in front of the person to stop the blade from reaching him.

The blade got stuck on her right shoulder blade, she yelp in pain. "DAMN!" Now her sword was completely useless since she used her right hand to hold it, 'Freaking Great! This dobe better thank me later or I'll be very pissed' she thought, looking down on the civilian as she grudgly took the dagger out of her shoulder blade.

Naomi never actually paid attention to who was the person she was protecting and it seem that if there was any god, made her want to suffer more. She noticed the black messy hair below her and just then the guy looked up, finding herself staring at a pair of red eyes.

The civilian was the guy earlier who bumped into her and called her short! No ever got away with it except him because she had to see what the explosion was about. But her unluckiness brought her to meet the bastard named Zato.

And now this dobe was the civilian, the god could be laughing at her and her bad luck. Suddenly she felt like laughing her butt off, not only did the dobe ask what was wrong but Zato himself asked too. She was probably in the brick of insanity. Naomi couldn't take it, this was one of the stupidest situation she has been in her entire life.

"Instead of flirting with the civilian, you should pay more attention to your enemy." He whispered in her ear, when did he get so close? She tried to turn around but lacking the speed and force she was pushed hard to the side. Making her fall on her face, now she was going to have a ugly scar from it.

"Sorry to disappoint you sir but I am no ordinary civilian. I'm a mage. So you better get out of my face before I rip you to pieces" said the dobe (deciding that was going to be his name), looking as uninterested at Zato. Man, the dobe must have some expression issues, he hasn't seen him smile or even scowl, he was expressionless.

To the dobe's answer, Zato laughed. "You are a mage? Don't kid with me brat! I don't sense any magic in you so bye bye!" Zato brought another dagger (Seriously, how many daggers did he have?) over his head, ready to plunged into the dobe.

Suddenly, the dobe was standing right behind Zato, watching Zato stab the air.

"What th- How did you do that?"

"I told you, didn't I? I'm a mage. Could you leave me and my friend alone?"

"Naomi had friends?! That's a first on-" Zato never had the chance to finish the sentence, the Dobe had punched him right on his stomach.

"Leave" One small word made the poor bastard (Zato) scramble to the train that had just arrived. She was impressed, the dobe had some skills and she didn't deny them. She picked up the dagger that Zato had threw on her and examined it, maybe she could use this to track Luke and Zato down.

"...-ey!"

"Huh? Where you talking? "

"So..are you here for something?"

She couldn't put her finger on it but she was here because of something...Reika! "Yeah! Thanks for that!" She ran to the same train that Zato just entered as she snapped her fingers. A simple snap made the ice walls melt revealing a mass of people waiting to see what happened.

Just then Zato was leaving the train, his shoulder was preoccupied with what it seem to be Gato, looks like Gato wasn't that strong after all. She entered the train, looking inside she found that most of the people that had been riding it, left their stuff inside.

It was easy bait for any nooby thief, she walked past the seats. Looking around for the blonde or her remains(Kidding). Until she got to the conductor's place, the door was ripped off so she stepped inside. She saw that part of the ceiling was blown away, probably it was the explosion.

Her eyes were staring at the ceiling until her gaze landed on a pair of blondes. It was one of those typical cheesy situations, they were both on a very "suggestive" position that made people think the wrong relationship between the two.

Naomi was never one that judged but she had one of those feeling to annoy both blondes before they woke up. She wondered around the cabin, trying to find something to help her in her evil plan.

"Yoshi! Now to the actual plan...hehe" she laughed evilly, she took the cap off the marker and began on her 'masterpiece'.


"What are you doing?" Rogue asked, looking at the female drawing on Sting's face and another girl's face. The girl shrugged, "Just having fun and you?" She asked back.

Rogue had a lot of trouble catching up to her after the townspeople began congratulating him for defeating the bandit. He practically had to push them off of him, and said a quickly your welcome and followed her. Knowing that Sting was probably in the train which it never surprises him.

"There~! Dont ya think it's beautiful? My masterpiece brings tears to my eyes.." she giggled, wiping fake tears away.

Both of the blondes' faces were drawn with random stuff the girl came up with. It was like the tv show he once saw when he was a kid, where the animal drew on people's faces because they fell asleep by her singing.

His response was a grunt, he never felt like saying anything more he need it. He had made a promise to his father after he kill him, not to ever express his feeling since it died with his father.

"Geez don't talk my ear off, I still might need it for listening to the blondes complains" She said. Sitting across the blondes with the marker under her nose, trying to balance it as if the marker was her mustache. The girl was so bizarre, was she bipolar? When he first met her she was quiet and hurt, in battle she was acting like a maniac and now she was being like a kid. The girl sure peaked his interest maybe he'll know if he stays close.

The girl stood up and walked where he was leaning against the wall and offered her hand, "I didn't have the time to thank you properly so as a gift I'll introduce myself to you! I'm Naomi Akiyama, a member of Mermaid Heel." Rogue was hesitant but shook her hand, "Rogue..Rogue Cheney
