Chapter 19 a Kind King
Authors note: right now I'm doing this chapter because I told myself if I find another review on this story, I would update, so I give thanks to my 22nd reviewer. Remember the main reason I do an author's note is to break free of my writers block, it's been working thus far. Oh yea almost forgot to tell you, the reason I haven't updated in five something days was because I went camping, so sorry. I will skip parts on when Shiori and Koruru meet, the main part I'm focusing on right now is when Zatch and Zeno meet and fight Koruru
It was the morning time and Kiyo had to go to school.
"Kiyo please let me go to school with you" a voice was heard throughout the house. "Botanical garden is closed today" Zatch yelled, still pleading to Kiyo.
"We'll just sneak in anyway" Zeno said in the back round
"Stop it the both of you, go to the park" Kiyo responded, while trying to get out the front door.
"That's the problem" the twins said at the same time
"Zatch you explain" Zeno said having the same flashback as Zatch
"When we went to the park, there was no one there, Naomi knew where the new park was but wouldn't tell us" Zatch responded.
"I will kill her someday" Zeno hissed out, Kiyo and Zatch then stared at him for a few moments
"That's going a little over board" Zatch then broke the silence created. Zatch then got back on topic "Are you telling us to play alone" Zatch cried out
"Go play tag" Kiyo responded
"Tag gets boring after a while" Zeno retorted
"So you want something to keep you two busy, fine" Kiyo stated then walked up stairs.
Around 10 minutes later Kiyo walked down stairs and gave Zatch and Zeno 2 cardboard cut outs with four chopsticks coming out of it.
"Here your new toy Vulcan 300" Kiyo said putting on his shoes
Zatch started to play with his Vulcan and chanting its name, Zeno stood there in the hallway staring at the box wondering what he should do with it.
Zeno thought up of two plans A. throw Vulcan at Kiyo head and blame it on Zatch, B. stand their wondering what to do with a cardboard box.
As Zeno was about to throw his Vulcan at Kiyo's head "thank you Kiyo" Zatch said in a happy tone. "How old is Vulcan" Zatch asked
"5 minutes" Kiyo responded, getting his suitcase (that's what it looks like to me)
"What is Vulcan" Zatch asked
"He's a robot that can shoot 300 air missiles, he's got a hyper body made up of a snake box and chopsticks" Kiyo explained then walked out the door. "See you later" Kiyo said then left
"Zeno you want to go to the park and play with our Vulcans" Zatch asked in an excited manner
Zeno shrugged his shoulders "Sure" Zeno said in a non-enthusiastic manner.
While at the park
"Tina it's a crown full of flowers you look pretty" a voice could be heard along with laughter
Zatch and Zeno spotted a pink haired girl playing with a doll
"Unu wow there's another child in the park" Zatch said in the back round
"Zatch" Koruru said in a low voice, fearing the worst
"Koruru, what are you doing here" Zatch asked approaching the girl
"You know this girl" Zeno asked wondering
"Yea she was in my class" Zatch responded, paying little attention to how Koruru was acting to the situation
"Both of them" Koruru whispered to herself, afraid to move.
"Pretty weak looking" Zeno said with a cold voice, scaring Koruru even more.
"Hey that's not nice, she one of my friends in the Mamodo world" Zatch said then sat next to Koruru. "This is Vulcan" Zatch said in a happy voice showing Koruru Vulcan, slightly breaking the mood.
Koruru sweat drop, "This is Tina" Koruru said showing off her doll
"Uhh" Zatch said, looking down at Vulcan. "You're friend probably bought you that" Zatch said while crossing his arms
"No it's handmade" Koruru responded holding her doll. "It took her a week to make it" Koruru explained
"My Vulcan" Zatch was interrupted by Vulcan arm falling off; Zatch then got a little upset. "He didn't even use glue" Zatch yelled
Zeno just took a look at his Vulcan and somehow both arms fall off. "Piece of junk" Zeno growled.
"Koruru sorry I made you wait, let's go home" Shiori said
Koruru then gave Shiori a crown full of flowers "here I made this for you" Koruru said.
Shiori then looked at Zatch and Zeno "Friends of yours" Shiori asked.
"No we just met" Koruru said.
"Ok I'll carry you home then" Shiori said kneeling down; Koruru then got on and started to run home.
"That fool must've not told her about the battle for King" Zeno stated
"How do you think that" Zatch asked trying to fix Vulcan
"They are way to care free, that and she acted like she didn't know you" Zeno said then stomped on his Vulcan. "Let's go home and annoy Dufort" Zeno said then started to walk home, Zatch picked both Vulcans up and followed.
Later that day Zatch was trying to make his Vulcan look cooler while Zeno and Dufort watch the news. Kiyo walked in to only hear Zatch complain about his Volcan.
"Kiyo" Dufort spoke up, and then pointed at the TV
"A mamodo" Kiyo asked
"Yes" Dufort stated
"We'll look into it tomorrow" Kiyo said, while still paying attention to the TV
The sun went down and rose again with Kiyo and the gang going to the place where the slashing's happened. They stayed there for a few minutes looking around; Dufort just sat on some bench already knowing what happened.
"Kiyo lets go to the park this is boring" Zatch said, knowing the situation but didn't want to deal with it at the moment.
Kiyo then started to walk in the direction towards the park with Zatch and Zeno following, Dufort remained behind.
Meanwhile at the park Shiori and Koruru were passing a ball around
Shiori was having flashback about when she first read the spell out of the book, and Koruru transformed into a murderous fighter.
"Shiori are you ok" Koruru asked
"Wh- what Koruru" Shiori responded slightly nervous.
"You're not very energetic today" Koruru said. "What happened to me… yesterday, wasn't there anything" Koruru asked
"What are you talking about nothing happened" Shiori said with a sweat drop. "Here's another pass" Shiori said passing the ball abruptly.
Koruru missed the ball and it went into the road. "l will go get it" Koruru said as she went into the road.
"Careful of the" Shiori was interrupted by a truck heading for Koruru; Shiori then remembered what the transformed Koruru said about their destiny. "Can't be" Shiori said then dashed for the book.
"Zeruku" Shiori shouted, turning Koruru into a murderous fighter, Koruru slashed right through the truck creating a large explosion.
Meanwhile with Kiyo and the gang
"Kiyo" Zatch yelled
"Yea" Kiyo responded, then started to run in the direction of the explosion, Zatch and Zeno were following in toe.
When the gang arrived they saw Koruru attacking a girl
"Zaker" Kiyo shouted, Zatch fired a large electric blast at Koruru, saving the girl that was being chased
"Koruru" Shiori shouted
"Hurry run away" Kiyo shouted
Kiyo looked at the marks left behind from the attack. "You're the one responsible for those slashing's" Kiyo shouted.
"Zaker" Kiyo shouted, the electric blast once again struck Koruru who gasped in pain.
"Zeruku" Shiori yelled, Koruru became stronger and dashed at Zatch and started to swing her knife like hands at Zatch.
Zatch used his close quarter combat skills to hold her back.
"Zaker" Kiyo shouted, the spell was strong enough to throw Koruru back to Shiori.
"Hurry more spells…more" Koruru shouted, the book began to glow.
"Koruru I can read a new spell" Shiori said
"Hurry read it" Koruru shouted
"Zerusen" Shiori shouted, Koruru arms enlarged and fired at Zatch and Kiyo
Zatch used his cloak to block one of the shots but they were blown back by the second one.
"Zatch what are you doing finish her" Zeno yelled form the sidelines; Dufort wasn't there yet.
"Kiyo, wh…why are they crying" Zatch asked confused
"What?" Kiyo said and looked at his opponents
"Why are they fighting and crying at the same time" Zatch asked with a worried look.
"Zatch don't worry about it there were things father didn't tell you for good reason… Now fight" Zeno shouted
"Kiyo don't recite anymore spells" Zatch asked with his head down.
"What?" Kiyo responded
"I can't fight an enemy like them" Zatch explained. "I now know what my father did to them, it's the first time I've seen this sort of thing" Zatch said holding his head up high. "I have to help them" Zatch shouted
"Are you crazy" Kiyo responded
"Kiyo… My brother knows what he's doing" Zeno said in the back rounds, yet ready to help out if something unexpected happened.
"Please don't come any more… Don't attack anymore" Shiori shouted still crying
"Zeruku" Shiori called out the spell giving Koruru more power, Koruru went for the attack
"No way" Kiyo went to read the spell
"Kiyo don't read any spells" Zatch yelled with determination in his eyes, he then grabbed onto the charging Koruru and threw her over his shoulder into the ground. "Kiyo I know the person who is reading the book she is a really kind sister" Zatch explained. "You're Koruru sister Shiori are you not" Zatch yelled.
"What?" Shiori responded.
"I am Zatch Bell, Koruru friend… I won't attack anymore, but you must stop attacking too" Zatch yelled, while holding Koruru down on the ground.
"I'm sorry, please help Koruru" Shiori shouted, collapsing to her knees.
"Don't you underestimate me" Koruru shouted, getting out of Zatch's grip. Zatch and Koruru then started a hand to hand combat, Zatch using mostly defensive blocks to hold off Koruru's endless assault.
Soon Koruru started to transform back to normal.
"Shiori hurry read another spell" Koruru shouted as she started to lose her claws. "We will… lose" Koruru said and collapsed to the floor, returning to normal.
"Koruru" Shiori shouted and ran over to Koruru who passed out.
"Finally you're back" Shiori said then laid Koruru down. "Thank you Zatch, for helping Koruru" Shiori said
"Zatch why are you… Shiori you're hurt…" Koruru said as she regained consciousness. She then realized what happened "I see I did this… I hurt everyone" Koruru said in dismay. "Zatch please burn my book" Koruru said holding up the book.
"If I do that you will return to the demon world… are you sure" Zatch asked lowering his head, unsure of what to do.
"No I won't let that happen you finally returned back to normal… why" Shiori said scared of what would happen.
"If the book is burned the other me will return to the Mamodo world" Koruru explained. "I don't want to hurt anybody ever again… Please Zatch we can't burn our books" Shiori pleaded. "In this battle, people with weak hearts are given a different personality, for we won't run away" Koruru explained still holding the book. "Please do it" Koruru said still holding out the book.
"Uhh… I... I can't do it, I can't do it" Zatch said holding down his head, trying to stop himself from crying.
"Zaker" a voice was heard, a small blue electric blast struck the book Koruru was holding.
Zeno was now standing next to Zatch
"…Zeno how could…" Zatch was interrupted
"Thank you, the both of you" Koruru said with a smile, but was still crying.
"I'm sorry Zatch… it's the only way" Zeno said with a slight whimper, then turned around for nobody could see his face.
"Everyone thank you" Koruru said, everyone was crying, except for Dufort, Zeno was unknown since nobody could see his face.
"No, Koruru don't leave me" Shiori said as Koruru started to disappear.
"Sorry… you won't be alone… I'll watch over you… because you are my kind sister" Koruru said as she was holding Shiori hand. "I really like my kind sister" Koruru said still crying
"Koruru" Zatch spoke up
"…Zatch, if there were a kind king, maybe we wouldn't have to do this" Koruru explained
"Yes you're absolutely right, Koruru you're right" Zatch said with a sad tone.
Koruru spell book then burned up.
"A kind king… a kind king" Zatch said to himself, the red book began to glow with a new spell
"Let's go home" Dufort said plainly, everyone looked at him, a few moments later they agreed with him and went home. On the way home "You got a new spell" Dufort said pointing at the book in Kiyo's hand.
Kiyo looked through the pages "The 4th spell Zakerga"
Zatch looked at Kiyo and then the book and gave a sigh in relieve
"Something else bothering you Zatch" Kiyo asked looking at Zatch's reaction
"It's nothing" Zatch said then looked away.
Zeno noticed this and knew what the problem was but didn't say anything for the rest of the day.
Authors note: How many of you thought that I was going to give Zatch Baou Zakerga as his 4th spell, you will have to wait awhile for that spell. If this chapter was a little confusing sorry… I had to fit three chapters in one so I had to skip a few scenes. Please review to vote for my offer, read my authors note on chapter 18 and you will understand.
