Chapter 16 the encounter
Author note: finally this is where my story and manga diverge. I don't know if I will be able to write the interesting story I have going inside my head, the setting may be a little crude, but I will be using the settings of the manga and anime, so if you don't know what I'm talking about look at the manga.
It was a rainy afternoon, school time was over, Zatch was getting the mail and Kiyo was in his room reading a college level book.
"Kiyooo" Zatch yelled running up the stairs.
Kiyo jumped up "What's the matter" Kiyo responded, Zatch then burst through the door flashing a letter to Kiyo.
"It's from Zeno" Zatch said happily then gave the letter to Kiyo
"Oh that's your brother" Kiyo said and was about to read it then stopped; the letter was in mamodo hand writing.
"Zeno said that he and his partner are at England and are coming over to live in Japan" Zatch shouted, while jumping up and down on the bed; Zatch couldn't contain his excitement.
"That's great news, when will they be here" Kiyo asked, while being happy about having ally they could trust.
"Knowing my brother he will be walking through the door today" Zatch said still excited.
"Wha, how's that even possible" Kiyo wondered
"Zeno can teleport… I wish I could do that" Zatch stated, then the door bell rung. "That must be them Zatch yelled and jumped off the bed and ran down the stairs. "Zenoooo" Zatch shouted then opened the door to find a blond woman holding a black book; she was wearing a white dress. There was also a mamodo with a black cape and black hair, with a hateful glare. Zatch knew who they were; Kiyo was coming down from the stairs and knew the person near the blond haired women was defiantly not Zatch's twin or brother.
"My name is Sherry and the person next to me" Sherry was cut off by Zatch
"Brago" Zatch growled, and glared at Brago, which he was doing the same.
"Well then I didn't intend on fighting but to talk, so can I come on in" Sherry asked politely yet demanding
"Sure" Kiyo said then pulled Zatch out of the glaring contest between Brago.
Meanwhile Zeno and Dufort arrived in the town where Kiyo and Zatch were living at, But have been walking in the rain for an hour now.
"Dufort do you know where we are going or not" Zeno asked a little annoyed. They were walking across a bridge, with cars splashing even more water on them.
Dufort didn't speak he just shrugged his shoulders and sort of kept walking in the direction of Kiyo's house.
"Listen Dufort I know you been taking me around in circles around the town, now show me the real way" Zeno shouted
Dufort looked down at Zeno with a cold stare "next time you won't shop lift" Dufort said plainly.
"What the down pour doesn't bother you" Zeno asked, Dufort just remained silent and shrugged his shoulders. "Of course this cold weather doesn't bother you, your heart is as cold as ice" Zeno responded to Dufort's silence, this statement didn't bother Dufort in any way.
After Zeno and Dufort were half way across the bridge a car passed them splashing more water on them, Zeno used his cloak to stop most it, but Zeno was already soaked to the bone.
Zeno now angry and cold "I swear… the next car… that does that… is getting destroyed" Zeno stated while chattering his teeth and was shivering.
"Waste of time" Dufort responded, not affected by the weather in the least.
"Dufort pull out the book, I need to shock myself" Zeno said, Zeno started to look more pale than usual.
Dufort pulled out the silver book "Zak" Dufort was interrupted
"Doroku" a man in a rain coat shouted. A huge dog with rock like armor came charging at Dufort and Zeno, both of them dodged it with ease.
"Renji" the mamodo jumped back
"Heh this looks like it will be fun" Renji stated
"Good looks like I can warm myself up a little" Zeno said then dashed to the right of the pair
"He's fast" Renji shouted. "Dorusen" Renji shouted, spikes came out of the dogs tail and towards Zeno
Zeno raised his hand
"Zaker" Dufort responded a huge lightning blast came out of Zeno's hand and obliterated the spikes in midair; the electric blast continued and hit both Renji and the Mamodo.
Meanwhile at Kiyo's house where impending danger loomed, more specifically inside Kiyo's room.
"I'm guessing you know about the battle to decide King and the purpose of these books" Sherry asked Kiyo with a serous manner.
"Yea, but what I want to know is… why are you here?" Kiyo wondered
"I want you to hand over your Red Book" Sherry demanded, this statement made Kiyo grip the red book, it also made Zatch mad, Zatch was right beside Kiyo, both of them right next to the door.
"I can't do that, Zatch did a lot for me and I'm not done paying off my debt" Kiyo explained
"I see" Sherry said then opened up the black shining book, this put a grin on Brago's face. "Reis" Sherry shouted, Brago aimed his hand and a gravity clump of energy went towards Kiyo and Zatch
Kiyo aimed his hand and Zatch looked in that direction "Zaker". The two spells collided in equal strength cancelling each other out.
"Zatch we can't fight here" Kiyo yelled and ran out of room down the stairs with Zatch following.
"You can't run" Sherry shouted and gave chase with Brago doing the same.
When both teams were down the stairs in the hallway
"Zaker" Kiyo shouted
"Reis" Sherry shouted
Both of the spells collided and cancelled each other out.
"Gravirei" Sherry shouted, the gravity caused Kiyo to smack into the ground, Zatch stood his ground. "Hand over the book" Sherry demanded
Kiyo then began to stand up "not in yours or my life" Kiyo responded opening up the red book which was shining brightly.
"Kiyo you ok" Zatch looked at him worriedly
Kiyo point his finger, Zatch aimed "Zaker"
Sherry then released Gravirei, "Reis"
Once again the spells met each other in equal strength.
"Zatch I have a plan" Kiyo stated then grabbed Zatch and ran into the kitchen and place Zatch near the sink.
"Kiyo we have to stop running" Zatch said in a angered tone
"We're going to use the house to our advantage" Kiyo stated, right at that moment Brago came busting through the door.
"Reis" Sherry shouted
"Zatch your cloak" Kiyo shouted
Zatch used the full powers of his cloak to protect himself and Kiyo from the spell
"There" Kiyo shouted pointing his finger at the wide open Brago "Jikerdor". The magnetic ball hit Brago who expected to feel pain but didn't.
"Is this some kind of joke" Brago shouted, which then realized what was going to happen.
All of the knives and kitchen wear started to fly towards Brago, there were to many to dodge or destroy with Reis. After everything was out of the drawers and imbedded into Brago skin, Brago was bleeding he had at least 3 steak knives that stabbed into him, 20 forks imbedding inside his skin, about 20 spoons clinging to him, pots and pans.
"Sherry" Brago yelled as he tried to take a steak knife out of stomach, Zatch quickly made his move and kicked it into his abdomen. Brago grunted slightly in the amount of pain he was in.
Zatch kept on punching and kicking the knives and forks deeper into Brago's body until Brago punched him to the ground.
The Jikerdor spell made the house crackle as the steel wanted to come out of the walls.
"Let's finish this" Kiyo shouted, "Zaker" the lightning came out of Zatch mouth
"Reis" Sherry responded the amount of objects clinging onto Brago made his reaction time slightly slower; he aimed at the bottom half of Zaker cancelling out only half of the electric blast. Brago covered Sherry from the half weakened Zaker.
"If you survive this then let's call it a draw" Sherry shouted, while flipping through the pages. "Gigano Reis" Sherry said with anger in her eyes
Kiyo's book was shining brightly "Zaker" Kiyo shouted; a large lightning blast came out of Zatch mouth
Both of the spell collided and created a large explosion, Zatch covered the both of them in his cloak; Brago covered Sherry with his body.
Sherry regain her pasture "We will be leaving now, neither of us have any energy from within to continue this conflict" Sherry explain and started to walk out of the house with Brago following while taking the forks and knives out of his body, which were stained with his blood.
"Just like that" Kiyo yelled when Sherry was half way out the door
"I would like to ask a favor of you, keeper of the red book" Sherry requested, on the door steps.
"This should be good" Kiyo responded
"There is a certain mamodo I would like to kill, he looks like a clown and goes by the name of Zofis… If you see him don't burn his book" Sherry said then waited a moment clenching her fists. "That bastard is all mine you hear me" Sherry shouted in anger.
"You have my word" Zatch spoke up for Kiyo
"Thank you" Sherry said then walked out the door to her limbo
Meanwhile Zeno and Dufort finished their mamodo battle and burned the book with one Zaker spell
"Damn it, that wasn't even a warm up" Zeno growled, and was still shivering.
"We're almost there" Dufort said in a calm voice.
A black limbo then passed by Dufort and Zeno
"Was that? Must be my imagination" Zeno wondered then got pissed as the limbo splashed more water on him.
Before Zeno was going to go hunt down the limbo that just splashed him.
"One street down two houses to the left is Zatch's house" Dufort explained to Zeno
Zeno then made a mad dash to Kiyo's and Zatch's house. He came running through the house to see Kiyo with wood about to repair the torn apart house and Zatch besides him.
"Zeno" Zatch yelled then gave his brother a hug.
"So warm" Zeno said, and was hugging his brother back.
"So your Zeno, I heard a lot about you from Zatch" Kiyo said, and was holding out his hand to shake Zeno's.
"Yea, yea ,yea, where are the towels?" Zeno stated, while looking around a little bit, still clinging to his brother.
Kiyo's eye twitched a little "Zatch show him were everything is then help me out" Kiyo stated in a calm manner
Kiyo's mom then came through the door with Dufort behind her. "Kiyo what happened to my house" Mrs. Hana shouted. She kept on ranting about the house until she noticed that Zatch's twin was shivering and she decided to yell at Kiyo later until she was done taking care of Zeno.
Authors note: I'm wondering if I did an all right job of describing how the setting of the story had a major role to play in the way things turned out so please review.
