Chapter 4
Flames burning houses…
Screams echoing everywhere…
People lay on the ground covered in red water…
I walk aimlessly across the area until I hear footsteps coming towards me. I turn around to see a bed-headed boy in a torn and burned orange gi and a brown tail. He stops in front of me with a worried expression on his face.
"Little girl, what're you here?" the boy asked, "come with me! It's not safe here!"
He holds his hand out towards me. I stare into his eyes blankly as I slowly take his hand.
"Come on, let's…"
Before he could finish his sentence, I flip him to the ground then place my foot on heavily on his head.
I can tell by his eyes that he's shocked by my actions…I love it when people act like that!
I stretch my hand towards his head and start charging my ki ball.
Grinning widely, I whisper softly to him.
"All you humans will perish…Just. Like. You."
BOOM!
"AAAAAHHHHH!"
I shot my head up gasping for air. I look around in cold sweat to see Monique sleeping beside me undisturbed. I look outside the cave to see the night sky still pouring down rain.
That's the least of my problems…I never had a dream like that before…What the heck was that? Was…Was that…me?
It is you. Was it exhilarating?
"What?"
You heard me.
"I…don't know…It was scary…"
You very well know. You crave for the rush…
"Please stop…"
The destruction…! The power…! The blood lust!
"STOP IT!"
…
"Kurai…?" Monique's voice asked from behind me. I turn around to see her concerned.
"Are you okay?"
I can't tell her about Voice's crazy talk. She would be more worried about me… I have to protect her…
"Nothing. Just a bad dream." I said tiredly.
"Oh! Well I got something for you to make you feel better!"
Monique searches through her pockets for a while until she takes out a small shiny object with a big, bright red gem hanging in the middle.
"Here it is!"
"What is it…?"
"It's a necklace! My daddy once told me this gem is called a Soul Gem. He said if the gem glows when someone wears it, their soul is pure of heart."
"I still don't understand…"
"You're definitely pure of heart, Kurai! Try it on! I promise I'm not kidding!"
"Okay…"
I grab the strange necklace and put it around my neck. Slowly, a bright red glow flashes from the red gem.
Monique wasn't kidding…! This means I was right…! I'm not what Voice described me…! I am good!
I leap towards Monique, laughing and hugging her happily.
"Thank you, Monique!" I said happily.
"Kurai…" Monique said calmly, "you're the greatest friend I ever had. You're funny, confident, and smart. So…do you want to become my sister?"
Sister…? She wants to be my sister…
…Yes! Yes!
"Yes!" I said laughing, "I have a sister!"
Both of us start laughing ourselves silly for a long time, still absorbing that we're now sisters.
Suddenly I hear footsteps coming inside the cave. I stop our laughing and look closer into the cave. I can tell Monique is getting scared as the footsteps getting closer and closer. Finally, two big guys in hunting outfits appear. Both of them are definitely up to no good.
"I knew I would find these brats," one of the men growled. It's the kidnapper from before.
"You're right, Drew," the second man laughed, "The green girl can make a fine price for the black market."
I grab Monique and put her behind me. "If you guys don't leave now, you'll regret it…" I growled.
Both men started laughing loudly.
Idiots…
"Monique. Stay behind me, okay?" She nodded.
Quickly, I run towards the kidnapper and jump kick him in the knee, causing him to fall to the ground. I uppercut his chin and kick him in the face, making him fly a few feet away from me. The other man then runs towards me. When he was close enough, I jump up to his eye level and side kick him in the head. He collapses on the ground with a grunt.
I land softly on my feet as I look at both men with a smirk. Both are unconscious and unable to harm us.
"Let's get out if here Monique." She nodded as we ran out of the cave.
We need to get back home, fast. Luckily, the rain is lighting up, making the trip less difficult as it should be. The quicker, the better.
"That was amazing, Kurai!" Monique exclaimed.
"Yeah! That should teach 'em not to mess with us!" I said with a smirk.
"Yeah!" she laughed.
To be honest, I was amazed myself. I didn't even know how I even fought those guys so well. I never done that before.
Was it some kind of instinct…or something else Voice didn't tell me? Whatever…It doesn't matter now…
"Maybe you can teach me how to do that," Monique said.
"Okay, big sister!" I said.
"Ha ha ha, I'll be a great big sister, huh?"
"Are you kidding? Of course you will! Because I…"
BAM!
"What was that?"
Thud…
"Monique?" I stop and turn around to find her on the ground. "Monique!"
I run to her, then my heart just drops. Her back is covered in red water. I shake her, pleading her to wake up.
"Monique!"
Nothing.
"Monique!"
No response.
"MONIQUE!"
