Chapter 14

Fights Continued

Mitsukie and Pashibaru

Mitsukie had her swords ready, glaring at Pashibaru. He held a rapier in his hands, ready to attack. They lunged at each other, clashing their swords together for a bit. As soon as Mitsukie pulled both her swords away, Pashibaru thrusted his sword towards Mitsukie's stomach. She couldn't really do much except for jump backward, but Pashibaru just followed her. He was deadly up close, it was a fact now. He sliced her stomach as he tried thrusting his rapier into her stomach, but she was able to hit it just in time to not kill her and just leave a cut on her. She had no idea how to defeat him. If she could get behind him, but he wouldn't let her. Mitsukie's speed could come in handy. She jumped into a tree, and before Pashibaru was able to focus his eyes on the tree, she jumped to a nearby tree. She made rustling in the tree she was in and quickly jumped to another tree which was closer to Pashibaru. He looked around, carefully, making sure to examine every spot he could. Once his back was towards her, she jumped down from the tree, quickly and quietly ran over to Pashibaru, but she had made some noise. He quickly turned around and blocked her attack, pushing his rapier past her swords and slicing her shoulder. They stayed quiet the entire time, not saying a word. She was able to think fast, thankfully, so she jumped backwards. She knew it wouldn't work, but she was thinking about making her sword bounce off of something and hit Pashibaru in the back. Mitsukie just had to tire him out, and she'd be able to at least land a hit on him. Although it was easier said then done. Pashibaru was deadly up close, so if she was able to get distance, but she used swords. What good was someone who used swords that was ranged? She wasn't even able to land a hit in. Pashibaru thrusted his rapier towards Mitsukie again, but she wasn't able to completely block it. His rapier cut her arm, but she wasn't going to be giving up. She ran behind him and swung her sword, but as expected, Pashibaru turned around, almost blocking the attack. Mitsukie's sword skimmed his arm, and as she was moving forward, she hit him in the back with her other sword, rolling away from him. Although the attack wasn't hard enough to hurt him enough to get him out of battle, she was still able to land a hit. As she turned around, she noticed Pashibaru thrusting his rapier at her again. He really hated her, and really wanted to kill her, but he was unable to do so since Ransurot wanted to test their potential. He wasn't sure if he had tested Mitsukie or not, so he decided to not kill her.

She put her swords up, blocking his attack. But all the fighting with her wounds was making her tired. "Tired already?" Pashibaru asked, taking a step back.

"I-I can still fight." Mitsukie said, standing up. Pashibaru just turned his back and started walking. Now was the chance. His guard was down. She was very quiet as she ran up behind Pashibaru and swung her swords quickly at his back, leaving a few scratches and he jumped away from her. "I told you I can still fight."

Pashibaru was in pain from her attack and just glared at her. "You win for now..." He muttered, flying towards Kisshu and Taruto.

Pudding and Zephyr

Pudding wasn't used to fighting by herself, after all she could freeze someone in jelly... Letting Ichigo have the final blow... But she didn't let that get to her. Zephyr had two swords in his hands as he smirked, walking towards Pudding. If she did this right, she would be able to trap him and use a stick to beat the crap out of him. But by the way he was walking, she knew he was cocky and would easily lose his temper if he was seen to be worse then a little monkey. She kept her distance from Zephyr, getting him quite annoyed. "What's the matter? Can't catch me?" Pudding asked, running around him just out of his reach.

"Stop running!" He yelled, very mad and annoyed. He stepped closer to Pudding's running line and swung one of his swords, slightly cutting her arm. She stopped running and faced him, holding her weapon in her hand. She knew she'd be able to beat him, but he was pretty deadly up close because of his swords.

Pudding clenched her weapon tightly. As he started to move, she froze him in jelly and laughed as she bounced on the big thing of jelly. Only seconds later it broke, and Zephyr watched Pudding fall to the ground, landing on her feet. "Oh come on, you can't catch me so you can't hurt me!" Pudding laughed, running around.

Zephyr was extremely mad now and he flew at Pudding, pinning her to a tree and making her drop her weapon. He smriked, watching Pudding struggle to get out of his grip. He ran his sword from her shoulder to her stomach, pushing hard enough to cut her all the way down. She held back her scream of pain and kicked him where the sun doesn't shine. She grabbed the sword he dropped and swung it at Zephyr. He stumbled backwards, shooting a glare at Pudding. "Need any help defeating her, Zephyr?" Kisshu teased.

"I think I can beat one little monkey." Zephyr snapped, swinging his sword at her. Pudding had no idea how to use a sword, so she just ran. He ran infront of her, really wanting to kill her. He swung his sword towards Pudding, cutting her shoulder and causing her to stop. He thrusted his sword towards Pudding's stomach, wanting to give her a slow and painful death. And he really didn't care about stragey, he thought he knew he'd be able to defeat her. Pudding kicked his hand out of the way and cut his arm. "Hnn..." Zephyr was getting a bit more mad at her. He became more cocky, snatching his sword out of Pudding's hand and started swinging at her, wanting to kill her.

She did get a couple scratches on her... Well a lot of scratches... And as she fell on her butt, Zephyr gave her a cold glare, his red eyes narrowing at her as he walked off. "Well looks like he won..." Pudding said quietly, crawling over to a tree and leaning against it in pain.

Zakuro and Rin

Zakuro stayed quiet, not saying anything to Rin who walked closer to her. It was late and she was quite tired, so she wanted this done and over with. Rin went almost fully invisable, causing Zakuro to panic a little. She kept an eye out for anything weird moving around, but she didn't really know what to look for. Rin walked behind her and started casting a fire ball to shoot at her, he wasn't really up to fighting right now, so he wanted this done and over with. Zakuro being Zakuro noticed what was behind her and used her whip to smack Rin across the face, shooting him a glare as he stopped his fire ball. Becoming visable again, he just watched Zakuro and she tried using her attack on him. Either Zakuro was too slow, or Rin was really fast. Rin moved out of the way of her attack and shot a bolt of lightning at her.

It was really a game of tag that no one could win for a bit as they kept trying to hit each other, but the other always dodged. "You're fast. But are you faster then I am?" He asked. He didn't seem to be confident or cocky, but he simply put out a question.

"Yes, I am." Zakuro replied, making her look like she was confident of herself. "I won't let you win."

"Very well. Let's see the outcome of this then." Rin smirked, shooting a lightning bolt at her followed by a fire ball. Zakuro jumped out of the way, snapping her whip around Rin's wrist and threw him in the air, keeping grip of his wrist. As she landed on the ground, she flicked her whip down, causing Rin to fall to the ground. (Not always as easy as Chimra Anima's there Zakuro...) Rin yanked his hand away from her whip, sending a lightning bolt through her whip and to her hand and he floated down to the ground, his arms folded.

Once it reached her hand, she dropped her weapon and backed up in shock (All pun intended... Maybe this chapter should be 'Lame References and Puns'...). She shot a cold glare at Rin, moving towards her weapon. She picked it up with caution and instantly flicked it at Rin, catching him off guard and knocking him to the ground. Zakuro took the chance to use her whip to try attacking him again, but as Rin was getting up, he shot a fire ball at Zakuro, knocking her to the ground. She watched out of the corner of her eye, Izumi fall on her butt, holding her hand and cry in pain. "You guys dare hurt my friends enough to make them cry?" She asked, clenching her weapon as she stood up. "Geez you guys are low! We have feelings too, and not all of us can stand what you can!" Becoming completely outraged, Zakuro swung her whip towards Rin. "I didn't even want to hurt you, but your little lday friend changed my mind." She flicked her whip towards Rin again, skimming his arm and leaving a small cut. She didn't give Rin enough time between her attacks to attack. Zakuro just kept flicking her whip at him, wanting to kill Seiko, but having to take her anger out on Rin.

"You don't know her that well though, do you?" Rin asked, dodging all the attacks.

"She's still my friend!" Zakuro snapped, her whip slamming against Rin's hand, leaving quite a big cut on the back of his hand as he flicked her whip away. He was able to cast a fire ball at her, but she just flicked her hip at Rin again, jumping out of the way of the fire ball. Zakuro didn't really care about getting hurt, she just needed somewhere to push all her anger out, and Rin was her target. Although she jumped out of the way of the fire ball, her arm was a bit red and hot, meaning she didn't completely dodge it. She flicked her whip towards Rin again, her whip skimming Rin's chest. He shot another fire ball at her, and there was no where for her to jump to, since he casted another fire ball in the area she would have jumped to. Zakuro wasn't fast enough to swat the fire ball away as she ended up being hit, falling to the ground in pain.

Rin just turned his back on her. "So, Zakuro. Who's faster?" He asked before flying off.

"Izumi!" Zakuro yelled, running over to Izumi who was crying, holding her hand. The burn was really bad and was already starting to swell.

Ichigo and Marin

"So... How about I let you go and I go for the cute blondie over there." Marin said, stepping forward towards Ichigo.

"No. Hands off." Ichigo growled, grabbing her strawberry bell.

"Awe, jealous little kitty!" Marin laughed. "You know his heart'll be mine, kitty-cat." Knowing Ichigo, she was going to completely lose it over her jealousy and want to kill Marin, but right now this was a battle for Ryou. A battle that Ichigo thought she would never be fighting.

"Back off." Ichigo hissed, clenching her strawberry bell.

"Oh come on, Ryou is his name, right? It's not my fault he's cute. And I just can't help myself from wanting him." Marin smirked, setting Ichigo off even more. She held her triton in her hand, stepping forward. "And plus, look at you. You don't even have the body a man would love."

"Knock it off!" Ichigo yelled, casting her attack. Marin simply walked out of the line of fire. "Don't touch him!"

"I doubt you guys are even dating." Marin laughed, walking towards Ryou.

Ichigo ran between them, glaring at her. "Look, I don't know who you are, but I really don't have time for you to play games!"

"Play games?" Marin asked, gripping her triton tighter. "You think this is a game?" She pointed her triton at Ichigo and a bolt of lightning came down and struck near Ichigo. "I'm sorry, but I don't see this as a game. I will win his heart, it's plain and simple."

"Right, have fun with that." Ichigo muttered, casting her attack again. Marin just sighed. In hopes to get this over with, Marin caused a huge wave to land on Ichigo. Ichigo was soaked, and not to mention freezing. "Wh-what was that for?!"

Marin smirked, holding her hand out to her side as a few droplets of water started running around, floating above her hand. "I told you this isn't a game."

Ichigo was silent as Marin put her hand out to Ichigo, palm facing her. Her water droplets charged at Ichigo, gaining more and more as it got closer to her. Ichigo tried dodging the attack, but the water just followed Ichigo. The water picked up speed and got in Ichigo's cat ears, making her shiver and put her hands over her ears. "Ryou will never love you!" She yelled.

"Ohh, Ichigo. You're so cute when you're jealous." Marin giggled, pointing her triton at Ichigo. Although it wasn't strong, Ichigo was struck by lightning, causing her to fall on her butt. "You have fun being wet and zapped by lightning while I go get my guy." She started walking over to Ryou, not paying attention to Ichigo. Ichigo took this chance and casted her attack on Marin, hitting her this time and throwing her onto her butt. "Oof..." She whinned, rubbing her butt.

"I told you to leave him alone!" Ichigo yelled, casting her spell again. Marin got up and tired jumping out of the way to only be knocked on her butt again. Ichigo was soaked and shaking from being shocked. Marin was just dizzy from Ichigo's attacks. "Just get lost!"

Marin wobbled to her feet, glaring at Ichigo before calling down another lightning bolt, knocking Ichigo down onto her butt, cold, wet, and shaking. "I guess you can call this a tie." She mumbled, flying back to Kisshu and Taruto. Ryou ran over to Ichigo, wrapping a coat around her and holding her close to him.

Mint and Ransurot

"Ugh, you're so freaky looking." Mint mumbled as Ransurot pulled out his odachi. He lunged at Mint, shocking her with his speed, Mint was barely able to dodge the attack. She shot an arrow at him, but he hit it away with his sword. He lunged at Mint, making sure to keep the distance close so Mint would have to find a different way of attacking. "You're so creepy! Get away from me!" Mint yelled as she jumped away from Ransurot, shooting a couple arrows at him.

"You're pretty stuck on yourself..." Ransurot whispered to himself. "Not that much potential..." He sighed, hitting away her arrows. "Not compared to the others."

"What are you rambling on about?" She asked, her hands on her hips.

"Nothing." He said, not really having much fun anymore. "Should have went with someone else, they would be more fun."

"Excuse you?!" Mint yelled, shooting more arrows at him. "What did you expect from me?!"

"Potential." Ransurot hit her arrows away again, sighing heavily. "Lets just get this over with."

"You said it." Mint agreed, shooting a wave of arrows at Ransurot as he lunged at her. He swatted some away, but one skimmed his arm. He swung his sword at Mint's arm, cutting her arm and part of her chest. "Ow!" Mint fell onto her butt, shooting an arrow up at Ransurot.

"Psh... Your potential is weak..." Ransurot said, moving out of the way of the arrow. He turned around, away from her. "You can say you won if you feel like, I don't care. I just wanted to test your potential." He flew off, leaving Mint confused as she walked over to Ryou's car and sat on the hood.

Lettuce and Killi

"I'm not really in any kind of personality to fight right now..." Killi sighed, folding her arms. "I didn't even want to come back with them... I mean I have my own little team too ya know!"

"You're not in the personality to fight?" Lettuce asked, not really wanting to fight either.

"Yeah." Killi sat down, her legs crossed. "I have split personalities..."

Lettuce kept her eye on Killi, she didn't want to be attacked when she couldn't defend herself, so she stayed transformed as she sat down as well. "And if you have your own team, why didn't you bring them?"

With a heavy sigh, Killi folded her arms. "They can come if they want, they're pretty big back home." She said, she seemed a bit lonely when she said that. "I mean I was the person who formed the team... And they just ditched me. Like I didn't even exist..."

"Killi, are you sure they just forgot you like that? There would be a reason..." Lettuce said, her legs bent and to the side of her. "You don't seem like someone could forget so easily.."

Killi stood up and turned her back to Lettuce. "Why are you even being nice to me? I tried to kill your friend. Why would you even care to be my friend?" Her voice was quiet, yet stern.

"Well if you want to fight, fine. But you didn't hurt her, and if you did then I wouldn't forgive you." Lettuce said, standing up as well.

With a heavy sigh, Killi held her hand straight out to the side of her. "Well if I don't, Kisshu and Taruto will be pissed, if Pai comes then he's going to be pissed, and everyone else will want to kill me..." A bow appeared in her hand. It was orange and black and had a dark orange ribbon floating around it. It had what seemed like a light orange ribbon at the top and bottom of it, but it was too thin to be a ribbon, flapping in the breeze. The bow even had what looked like black wings floating by it. As she pulled an arrow from thin air, Lettuce got ready to attack. The arrow was black with dark orange feathers and tip. "I don't want to fight." She whispered as she turned around, string pulled back and ready to shoot.

"We don't have to fight!" Lettuce yelled.

"Well I do!" Killi responded, tears forming in the corner of her eyes as she let go of the string, the arrow flying at Lettuce. Lettuce jumped to the side, dodging the arrow, but still not attacking. "...I'm sorry..." She whispered as she shot another arrow at Lettuce.

She ducked and the arrow flew right over her. Lettuce didn't want to, but she had no choice. She used her attack to get Killi soaked and knock her to the ground. Lettuce was fast with her attacks, but Killi was still able to shoot an arrow between Lettuce's attacks. Killi's arrows skimmed Lettuce's arms as she tried to stop Lettuce from doing any more attacks. Killi's aim was good, but wasn't good enough to hit a bullseye on a target everytime she shot. Lettuce was getting pretty sore from all the arrows that hit her and did her strongest attack. Killi dropped her bow as she was jumping backwards. "Just stop already, Killi. I won't give up!" Lettuce yelled. She thought if she won, she'd be protecting her friends. So she had all the motivation to win. Especially when she heard Izumi scream in pain. "Your friend over there hurt Izumi, and because I can't hurt her..." Lettuce said, casting her strongest tidal wave again, knocking Killi on the ground. "Leave my friends alone!"

"Fine! You win!" Killi yelled, making her bow vanish and she flew backwards to Kisshu and Taruto.

Chiyo: Thank you for taking the time to read this! I know I didn't put in the last paragraph of the last chapter, but they're all fight scenes and I said who's fighting who so... I figured that was ok since it's pretty self explanatory XD
