Anise's Adventure
Chapter 11: Pain
...
Jade POV
I was walking back to my office from having a long chat with Peony about his wedding with Shion. I'm not happy about letting my other sister get married off, but I guess I'll let it happen for her sake. I got to my office doorway to see an empty room with no Anise waiting for me.
I frowned deeply and narrowed my eyes, walking over to my desk only to see my locked drawer open and the notes I had of fomicry missing. Anise... but what does she want with- my eyes widened at the thought of what she might do with them, so I took off quickly to catch her before it happened.
Anise POV
I thanked Noelle, and rushed ahead to Baticul's entrance. I saw Damian standing there waiting for me. I smiled, running to him and stopping to catching my breath. I brought out the notes and handed them to him, and he smirked.
"As I promised...now it's your turn to keep your end of the deal Damian; teach me how to use the Daathic Fonic Artes."
"Hmm, of course, my dear Fon Master. I always keep my promises...we need a bigger area though. How about an area a bit far from Baticul? If we are farther away from Baticul, then no one will interrupt us."
I frowned, following behind Damian. I still didn't like this, but I had to do it! I wished I could ask Sync to teach me, but his answer would be straight out 'no'. I had no other choice. Damian finally stopped after walking a good distance away from Baticul. He turned around, facing me with that stupid evil grin I hated so much. I just wanted to use Tokunaga to smack him across the face, but I couldn't.
"The first thing you need to do is simple, really."
I nodded, listening closely, waiting for him to say what I had to do first for my lesson, but what happened next was a shock. I had to dodge and roll when he took a swing at me. I sat up with one knee on the ground.
I glared at him, "What the hell was that for?! Are you trying to kill me?!"
"Heh, hahahaha! You really are a fool! How you were chosen as Fon Master is a mystery!"
What he said shattered my world. I stared at a smirking Damian with wide eyes, tears sliding down my cheeks.
"Aww, did I make you cry, Fon Master? Too bad really; at least you were useful for one thing though," I clenched my fists when I stood up. They were shaking with anger as I looked down with my eyes closed tightly, more tears rolling down my cheeks.
"Y-you bastard!" I growled and took Tokunaga off my back, enlarging him with my artes. I jumped on his head and took off running at Damian. I swiped Tokunaga's claw hands at him, but he dodged it by flipping over me.
"Tsk, tsk. Temper, temper, Fon Master."
"Shut up! Dual Punishment!" Tokunaga's arms outstretched and started to spin fast. I held on tightly and grinned when one of Tokunaga's claws hit Damian as he tried to dodge.
Tokunaga stopped and jumped backwards. Damian didn't look too happy when I hurt him. He looked at his hand and touched his wound on his arm. He glared right at me, making his red eyes more evil and menacing. It sent shivers down my spine, but I shouldn't let him get the best of me! I have to get Jade's fomicry notes back before he does something bad with them. It's my fault I let my selfishness get in the way, but I'll get those notes back no matter what the cost.
"...You will pay for harming me, Fon Master. How about I torture you until you break? Or...better yet - die?"
I gasped and screamed. I didn't move in time and I paid the price. He sent this big sphere of energy at me, blasting me off Tokunaga. I skidded across the ground until I stopped. I groaned, about to sit up and grab Tokunaga, but I was kicked in the face. I flew a couple feet, landing on the ground hard, knocking the wind out of my lungs.
"You have no way in defeating me, young Anise." I opened my eyes weakly, only to see Damian bent down on one knee, "You're way too weak. Face it; you will never be strong. You'll just be weak little Anise forever."
I spat at his face, "Go to hell!"
He growled and wiped the spit off his face. He grabbed my dress top, hoisting me up in the air. I was holding onto his wrist, wiggling my feet slightly. I grunted in pain, flinching as his grip tightened.
"You stupid girl! How can you not see you're powerless without your so-called friends?! Surrender to me, and I will bring back your precious Ion."
I wanted to see Ion again so much! I wanted him to smile again, to scold me when I acted like a child, and help me through the pain. I closed my eyes tightly, tears cascading down my cheeks as I choked on a sob. I knew what I had to say...what's the use anyways? He's right, I am weak.
"No..." I said softly.
"What was that, Fon Master?"
"I said no, you stupid prick!" I kneed him in the gut as hard as I could, which made him let go of my dress. I back flipped, ignoring the pain shooting up my whole body.
"You bitch! If you want to die so badly, then die!"
I screamed so loud I didn't realize it was me screaming at first. I opened my eyes weakly. I was lying on my stomach, hand reaching out for Tokunaga, but Damian kicked him away from my reach.
"You are no Fon Master. You're as weak as a kitten...so I'll end your suffering right here and now," I weakly watched a sword materialize in thin air, just like how Jade brought out his spear, and pointed the tip at my face. I looked down, tears dropping down on the ground.
I didn't want to die...someone...anyone, please save me...please. I slowly closed my eyes, waiting for his attack to come.
It didn't.
I heard a grunt, then I heard something land on the ground near my head. What I saw when I opened my eyes made me cry again, but not from sadness, and joy instead. I saw him standing not too far from me, glaring at Damian. I opened my mouth and softly choked out his name.
"Tch; damn you, Necromancer!"
"...If I were you, I would leave, but not until after you hand over my fomicry notes."
"Hn, like I would listen to you, Necromancer! You can't have them...I'll take my leave for now."
Jade was about to stop him from leaving, but somehow he let him slip, and soon I was left alone with him. I tried to ignore his red eyes boring into me, but I couldn't. I could feel them burning into the back of my head.
I slowly stood up and walked over to where Tokunaga lay, ripped to shreds. I gently picked him up. Tears fell from my face and onto Tokunaga's torn face. I hugged him close to me, crying. I fell down to my knees.
I lost trust with Jade, and what's worse...Tokunaga isn't usable anymore; I can't fight without him. I'm useless without him.
I'm useless.
