"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust." Luna said.
"'Tis a sad fate, but it dost happens to all of us," Amy said emotionally, putting her hands to her chest and looking up into the sky. Luna laughed.
"Feeling poetic today, Amy?" Luna asked sarcastically, heading down the dark staircase after her book owner. The staircase was dark because of summer vacation; it was just a week in. All that was left in the school was janitors, and most of them never even showed up.
"I am, but now, I really just want to burn that brat's book. Can we stop hiding behind these stupid mercenary's?" Amy asked, wanting a battle.
"Patience, my dear. Besides, we can't risk being eliminated this early. Let's let Hawke and Warren battle them first, and then, we'll finish them off." Luna said, opening the door to the ground floor, looking for anyone, and then walking down the hallway.
"What about Rio Baton?" Amy asked.
"We shouldn't waste such strength on such weaklings. Besides, together, Hawke and Warren could beat them. Adding Rio would just be overkill," Luna pointed out. She looked through the school door for the long haired male Mamodo and his teenage book owner. They had left.
"No. I mean, what if we just send Rio alone?" Amy said, opening the front door, and breathing in the afternoon air.
"Tsk, tsk, Amy! What if they burn Rio's book? He's our strongest ally. Hawke is rouge, if Rio is gone, we won't be able to control him. Then we'll have weak Warren and Emmanuel. What will we do then?" Luna asked questioningly, wagging her finger at her adult partner.
"But, if they burn Rio's book, then we'll know they're good opponents for us. And the stronger they are, the harder they fall." Amy laughed arrogantly.
"Point duly noted." Luna said, as Amy took out her cell phone and called a taxi.
"You know, I wonder why all these Mamodo are in Portland." Jay said, looking out the window of his room.
"Maybe it's because you have such good fish," Alan said, biting into a fish, more specifically the one he wanted to eat for breakfast a few weeks ago.
"Those are shipped in from Florida, stupid." Jay said, getting out and looking at the dark brown book. 'A month. How much longer is this going to last?' Jay thought, flipping through the pages, as if he wanted a new spell to appear.
"You're very cynical," Alan said, taking another bite out of the fish.
"Besides, we survived those other battles. You should be happy I'm still here." Alan told him matter-of-factly. Jay looked at the window, wide eyed.
"What is it?" Alan asked, going to the window, and pushing Jay out of the way. There was some sort of bird in the sky, but it was very large, and holding a muscular kid, and two women on it's back. Alan dragged Jay away from the window.
"Run!" Alan yelled, almost comically. He ran straight out of the house, away from the bird, but it followed them.One of the women laughed.
"Rudorm!" She said. The muscular child disappeared, and reappeared next to Alan, running as fast as him, but not even breaking a sweat.
"You feel like a race? I'll give you one." The child said, running faster, and then stopping with his arms spread.
"Proshield." The book owner of the boy said while riding on the bird. The boy became even more muscular, now looking almost like a rock. Alan rammed into him, and was knocked back. The boy was just as solid as a rock!
"Icaradoma!" The other woman on the bird said. The bird dropped the purple dressed book owner. The bird went high into the air, and flew toward the ground at mach speed. The muscular kid started to approach Alan and Jay. They were surrounded from both sides.
"Braishield! Braidon!" Jay yelled. The shield made of hair stopped the bird, making him drop to the ground. His wings disappeared, and he sighed. The Braidon spell knocked the child off his feet, sending him flying into a lamppost.
"Clever little sneak." The bird said. 'I like this guy's battle tactics…' The bird thought, admiring Jay's plan. The bird got up.
"Prima, another spell!" The bird yelled at the woman in the purple dress.
"Sure, Hawke! Bekaradom!" The woman said. The bird headed teen, named Hawke, gained his wings again, flying into the air. He started spinning, and then flew down toward Jay.
"Immobi Braidon!" Jay yelled. Whips of Alan's hair wrapped around the spinning Hawke, but the whips were annihilated by Hawke's spinning. Jay and Alan jumped out of the way of the spell, causing Hawke to dig deep into the concrete and asphalt. When he lifted his head, he was angry. 'Son of a…' Hawke thought.
"You know what?" Hawke said, turning to the muscular kid.
"This guy is MUCH stronger than you, or Emmanuel, or even Luna, will ever be. I'm on his side now." Hawke said, pointing to Jay and Alan. Alan and Jay looked surprised, and so did the muscular kid.
"You can't betray Luna! She's much stronger than you! Her, Emmanuel and I will defeat you if you switch teams!" The kid protested, stamping his feet.
"Oh, calm down Warren. I'll make sure I send you back quickly. And, Besides, now that I have someone to help me beat Luna I don't have to worry about my book being burned every day." Hawke said, looking at Prima. She nodded. Warren gasped.
"You can't be serious! I knew you were rouge, but not so desperate to join anyone who goes against Luna," Warren laughed. His book owner laughed with him.
"I only joined her to keep my book from being burned." Hawke said simply. Prima nodded again.
"Swoododom!" She said. Hawke grew his wings again. Picking up Prima, Jay and Alan, he started to fly away.
"When Luna becomes Queen, I'll be laughing when you start being her servant!" Warren yelled at Hawke.
"Yeah, I'll really dread feeding her bon-bons," Hawke laughed. He then swooped back toward Warren.
"Got a spell that could burn his book?" Hawke asked Jay.
"No, but we do have a match," Jay said. Prima took it and lit it.
"Get ready, Hawke. Luna's downfall starts in 3… 2… 1…" Prima said. They flew past Warren and his book owner. When they had flown past, Warren's book was already on fire.
"You're gonna pay for this!" Warren yelled, starting to disappear. His book owner started to run away, seeing that the light brown book was sprouting flames. Hawke and the rest of them flew off into a bright pink and orange sunset.
"I'm Prima Aero, and this is Hawke." The woman introduced.
"What just happened?" Alan asked, a bit confused. Hawke laughed.
"You know all the Mamodo that have been attacking you lately? They're all mercenaries of a Mamodo named Luna. She is painfully strong, and she recruits everyone she beats, unless she burns his or her book. Then, she sends them on the strongest person she finds. After you burned Eyesacc's book, then she sent us after you. When you burned Camille's book, she became serious, sending Warren and me after you. Next, she'll probably send Rio Baton and Emmanuel, but I'm going to burn her book before she can even get the news of my betrayal." Hawke explained, flying over the schoolyard.
"So, she's been after us this whole time?" Jay asked.
"Um-hmm. Everything starting to make sense?" Hawke asked.
"Like clockwork. Where are we going?" Jay asked.
"We're going to Luna's hideout. I want her book burned by tonight, and I'm taking you as help." Hawke explained, flying near an abandoned warehouse.
"Help? Is that all you think of us?" Alan asked angrily.
"Who cares? If we beat Luna, that means less Mamodo after you and me," Hawke said, going in for the descent.
"I have a bad feeling about this…" Jay said, worried.
