A Locked Heart
Chapter nine: Hair vs. Fox
Kisame point of view
I had just walked out onto the field and I could hear the other guilds talking with each other.
"That little thing is going to fight Flare?"
"Hope it will be ok..."
"Do your best you cute little fox!"
I shook my head and glared at Flare who was extremely creepy.
"You two, come here, please!" Mato said as he raised his hands and pointed his index finger in the hair.
"The time limit is 30 minutes."
"Litt- Little Blondie Fox. Hehe." Flare bend her neck to her right.
"Within the time limit, if one makes his rival cannot fight, the he wins. Well now, the first round..."
"Battle Start!" said Mato.
I made the first move.
"Transform!" I yelled.
I was engulfed in flames as my body started to drastically change.
"Ha! I haven't even attacked yet and you're already getting hurt!" laughed Flare.
I got big to about the size of two fully grown lions, my canines became sabertooth like, fire, ice, wind, and rocks started dancing around my paws, and I had a black four sided star mark on my forehead.
"What a pathetic little Blondie fox you are!" she laughed harder.
When I heard Flare's comment, I let out a demonic roar as the fire around me diminished.
"CARE TO SAY THAT AGAIN!?" I roared. I showed my fangs and glared more at her.
I could feel Lucy smile at me from where she was leaning against a stone wall.
"I'D BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO!" Flare roared back.
She let her hair out of its braids and used a spell.
"LONG-HAIR WOLF FORM!"
Her hair changed into the form of a huge wolf and it charged at me however I stood my ground.
"Extreme Speed!" I chanted.
I started dashing around the battlefield so quickly that I was invisible.
"Where did that Blondie fox go?" asked Flare. She looked around with her hair still on wolf form.
I reappeared right behind Flare.
"Right behind you..." I whispered.
She whipped around just as I used an attack.
"Ice Dagger Blast!" I chanted.
Daggers made of ice started raining down around the field cutting up Flare's precious hair.
"My hair!" she exclaimed in despair. Her eyes widen as she watch her hair fallen.
I only smirked and disappeared in a flash again.
"That won't work again you Blondie fox!" she yelled.
Before I knew it Flare had wrapped her hair around my paws and started throwing me around the battlefield dragging me across the ground and slamming me into wall's at some points.
I let Flare have her fun for a few seconds before freeing myself with a spell.
"FOX FIRE!" I chanted.
The fire around my paws increased and burned off Flare's hair; Enraging her even more.
"Do you have a grudge against hair?!" she yelled.
"No. I just don't like it when hair is trying to attack me so I attack it before it can get me" I stated.
Flare only growled and sent her hair underground.
'A sneak attack eh? That won't work. All I have to do is think about Flare and then I can read her thoughts' I thought.
I thought about Flare but her mind was completely silent.
'What? She isn't thinking about anything! I don't know where she's going to attack from!' I thought; surprise.
I stopped thinking about Flare as I started to look around me but I saw something.
'The bitch can't be serious!' I thought; scared.
Flare had positioned some of her hair near Lucy's neck who didn't have a clue that she was in danger.
I was extremely worried because Lucy's neck was the weakest part of her body with how many blows have been dealt there.
"Lucy-hmph!" Flare's hair had wrapped around my mouth making talking impossible.
"Better be quiet Blondie fox or else I'll strike your partner's pretty little neck" she growled.
Knowing that I couldn't do anything without Flare possibly fatally wounding Lucy… I let Flare beat the crap out of me.
'I just have to take it! For Lucy's sake!' I thought. I closed my eyes; ready for more attacks.
Flare whipped all over my body with her hair causing burn and whip marks to appear all over my body. She was laughing like a maniac and she was enjoying what was she was doing.
Along the torture I thought about Lucy and heard her thoughts.
'What is with you Kisame? You're usually so focused and coordinated but now you're losing to Flare? Did you use up too much magic without knowing again?' she thought; so concerned.
'Please turn around!' I thought. Hoping Lucy would hear me.
Flare lifted me up and suspended me in thin air with her hair covering my mouth and her hair holding my paws apart.
"Ne, do you want me brand the insignia of Raven Tail on you?" some of her hair molded into their mark and was hissing. "A mark that can never be erased."
"Now...Where do you want to put it?" she asked as her molded hair was in front in my face.
'Someone please help me!' I thought.
Lyon point of view
I saw the hair by Lucy's neck and I was currently racing over there.
'Raven Tail bastards. How could you do this!?' I thought. My face was wearing a angry expressions and a huge thick mark appeared on my forehead.
I got over to where Lucy was and froze the hair with my ice and after was broken, I smashed it.
I caught a glimpse of Lucy's face and it looked mad. She went over to the end of her place and yelled out to Kisame.
"Kisame! Get it in gear and start fighting back against that bitch!" she yelled.
The battle changed after that...
Kisame point of view
I smirked and tore off Flare's hair with my sabertooth fangs and burned off the parts that were suspending me in mid air.
"Time for this battle to change!" I yelled.
I got ready and started my ultimate attack.
With two-tails flowing behind me,
I dare not defy thee as I, too am a demon,
But I am losing in this battle as thee can see,
Darkness started cloaking the entire arena.
So please help your loyal subject and lend me thee power,
Two huge glowing red eyes appeared behind me and Flare was cowering in fear the second she heard a growl
I call upon the Demon King!"
Flare was completely afraid as the body of a huge nine-tailed fox appeared in the darkness appearing to be the owner of the glowing red eyes.
"W-What is this?" asked Flare in fear.
'I won't lose to you! I'll win! I refuse to lose to someone like you!' I thought angrily.
"FATE ZERO!" I yelled. The nine-tailed fox behind me opened his mouth and let out a huge red blast of red light that was heading towards Flare but at the last second...My attack disappeared and Flare wasn't hurt one bit.
'Was I… Not strong enough?' I thought sadly.
'How? Why?' I thought
I fell onto my side; Feeling all the magical power drained from my body.
A few seconds pass before Flare started laughing.
"Ha! Looks like this Blondie fox isn't so strong after all!" Flare spat. After hearing it, I felt a pang of pain.
Somehow I could feel Lucy's worried gaze on my back and I started to think about her so I could hear her thoughts.
'Please get up Kisame! I need you to win this! So please get up and show that Flare girl who's the strong one and the weak one!' thought Lucy.
I was shocked. Lucy still thought of me as strong? Even though I'm lying on the ground right now?
"The winner is-!" Chapati was cutted. He saw I was still in all fours but I was struggling at my posture.
"THIS BATTLE ISN'T OVER YET!" I yelled stubbornly.
Flare only chuckled. "You just don't know when to give up do you?" she asked.
I started dashing towards Flare and she made her hair go into the wolf form again.
"THAT WON'T STOP ME!" I yelled.
I charged right through it freezing it with ice magic as I passed it.
But the second I got to Flare I yelled out.
"WIND BLADES!"
Flare was attacked with blades made of wind and she was knocked out from the force I had put into those attacks.
"Whoa! It looks like the battle has been turned around as Kisame has beaten Flare even though she is out of magic!" Chapati exclaimed.
I turned back into my smaller form panting from how much magic I had used.
"The winner is Kisame from Love and Lucky!"
"Way to go cute little fox!" Jenny congratulate me as she winked.
I fell onto my side in the process of passing out.
The last thing I remembered, the feeling of Lucy picking me up and cradling me in her arms.
"You did your best Kisame now get some well-deserved rest..." she said gently.
Her tone reminded me of a caring mother and I feel into unconsciousness as my partner carried me to the infirmary to have my burns treated.
