Chapter 26: Hottie vs. Beautie

A.N: Hello again! This chapter is pretty vauge but then again its suppose to be. Now then remember to review if Kuma should take down Thunder Palace or help take down Laxus! I have two votes one for each so help break down the tie!

-Kuma PoV-

"I... There's a reason they keep calling me Princess."

"Are you sure you wanna say it out loud to mortals? Is it safe?" Aunt Lucy questioned into the lacrima and the rest of the family gave her quizzical looks. "What do you mean Luce?" Uncle Natsu questioned and the pretty blonde looked away.

"It'll be fine. They deserve to know. Mom." Looking her straight in the eye she actually looks a bit nervous.

"I know now who my biological parents are. I found out about two to three weeks ago." She looked ok but I could see her fingertips twitching slightly once every few seconds. Taking another gulp of air I force my self to stay looking at her.

"My father is who they call the King of Demons. Known as all ruler of dark magic. And my mother is known as the Eve of Despair. Their names are Moka Akashiya and Zeref Vermillion." That revelation hit her like a blow and she stumbled back into Uncle Gray. He caught her with his eyes wide open. "H-How is that e-even...?!" I shrugged. I had no clue. I just knew I was the daughter of the most strongest evil beings in the cosmos. Aunt Lucy smiled at me reassuringly despite the fact I was still in chains. Uncle Natsu looked dumbfounded.

Luka again dissappeared and the lacrima vision disspersed. A loud crash rung throughout the small room and my head snapped to the left. Claire and Dennevah were on the scene, looking fierce and defiant. Pricella got ready to attack. Dennevah saw my hand reaching closer to my unlocked shackle and nodded. "GO!" Pricella turned in time to see me cutting through Cobalts ties with ease and running out of the room. "Thanks you two! I owe ya!"

"So what do we do now?!" Cobalt questioned, grabbing my hand and dragging me foward to run even faster. "Simple. Your gonna find Juvia and get the hell out of here. Im gonna find Jadin, Luka and Jellal and beat there assess untill they actually see heaven and not some dream. In that order!" I dont even remember when we transformed back to our human forms.

"Im not going any where without ya Kay! We're nakama. We gotta stick together."

"Well sometimes you gotta listen to your friends and do what your told!"

"I agree with the Princess."

Stopping in our tracks, Jadin is in front of us. He too was in nicer clothes. My kimono flutters in the air, the thin cloth making me shivering a little believable to the excuse of being cold. Cobalt lets out a feral growl and I see his tightened fist are shaking. I know Jadin betrayed us all, but shouldnt Claire, Dennavah and I be the most angry? We were the ones who spent time here at the Tower of Heaven.

"Jadin. Youve got some nerve showing your face around me."

"Feeling a little hurt that Pricella was with me this whole time, Cobalt?"

That's right! My mind flashes from the day Jadin and I walked in on Pricella and Cobalt making out to when Jadin's arm snaked around the girl's waist at the casino when he sold us out. On second thought he had every right to slowly rip the guy's throat out.

With his canines.

"Kuma. Go on ahead. You've got some buisness with that freak to take care of right?" Looking over at him I see him getting ready. Should I stay or go? Cobalt dashes towards Jadin and I have my answer. Go!

-Claire's PoV-

"That little bitch..!"

"How could you do this, Pricella?! Kuma actually thought of you as a friend and Cobalt was in love with you! Is this how you treat nakama?!"

Dennevah and Pricella stared each other down. It was the battle of the pretty girls, reigning beauties of Yokai Academy. Pricella with her punk rock pink hair and crystal blue eyes and Dennevah with her fiery red hair and exotic skin with golden eyes.

Pricella was a bigger bitch than I would have ever believed. She played Cobalt like a doll and threw him to the side like trash. She chuckled and shrugged.

"He was absolutely adorable! And its your idiotic faults for even thinking trash like you and a superior like I would ever become close."

Dennevah had transformed into her demon form. Her red hair cut into a sharp bob and she wore a leotard/one piece looking thing. It had a black tight turtle neck and her legs adorned black knee highs with ridiculous heels. The symbol of Lamia Scale stood out from the bright white attire. Her gold eyes seemed even more beautiful.

Pricella, too, transformed into her demonic side. Her pink hair seemed brighter as it was now in a low sideways ponytail. She wore a skirt that reached her lower thigh and a shirt that reminded me of Levy McGarden's dress. The sleeves and shirt were pink and green though. Both of their fangs glowed.

"Im cuter, Im sweeter, Im more irresistable! Face it Dennevah, Im the exact definition of Temptation! So why does that girl have the title Temptress?! It's unfathomable!" My twin sister held out her hand and a fan with paintings of plants appeared. She held it up and almost all of her face instead of her eyes were covered, giving her an amazing cooler edge with the dangerous glint here and there. "Your also more of a bitch. So your jealous of Kuma-nii because she was prettier smarter and more in demand? Pathetic. Cobalt liked you for you. Wasnt that enough?" The air mage just charged at Dennevah, the nature mage.

Dennevah had more of a crush on Cobalt then in love. The only person she could fall in love with was a boy name Koga Delmas. He was with us in this tower and I know he's still here. I can feel it. Maybe if Henran was here he couldve tracked him but...

'Stop it!'

Why? Go ahead and admit it. He left you.

'Shut up! He had to get away, who wanted to stay here?!'

Koga and Kuma stayed when they had the chance to go but they wanted to make sure that you and Dennevah got out as well. He didnt give a damn about what happened to the lot of you. There was no sticking together. There was no promise. He left on his own accord. He didnt-

A crash interrupted my minds banter.

Dennevah was in the wall and Pricella laughed. "As a demon your weak but as a mage you have nothing to control. No plant life! Face it, it's over."

"DONT TOUCH MY SISTER!"

Holding out my hand and curling them Pricella starts to jerk. I really hated doing this but I had no choice. I got this idea off of a TV show that I watched a couple years back. The idea was that blood is liquid and I control water. So I bended her blood like I would bend water. She fell to her knees and we heard a shout above.

"DENNEVAH!"

That voice...

"KOGA!" Kicking Ice Princess in the face I yell at Dennevah to go find her man. She blushed but ran anyways.

"Alright, Pricella. Let's settle this."

-Cobalt's PoV-

Jadin grunts in pain as my foot connects with his chest. He stumbles back into a wall and stands back up. His claws grow out and he snarls. As if Im scared of him! If there's one person I know I could beat, its this loser.

"Why are you fighting for her, Cobalt? Just a few weeks ago you were enemies." Chuckling I get ready for my next attack. "Unlike you we were forced to fight each other. You chose to fight against her. The worse part about it, you pretended to be her friend. In the famous words of Elfman: That's not manly!"

"Ex-quip, BLIZZARD HALABARD!"

"Water Dragon, WING ATTACK!"

Knocking the weapon out of the way, I wasnt fast enough to see the fist that hit my side. Stumbling and sliding back to a stop I feel my nails grow.

It's game time.

-Kuma's PoV-

"Reiga! Where are you?!"

I ran smack dab into Uncle Natsu. He smiles when he sees me and hugged me. Spinning around I feel dizzy and I know so does he so he puts me down.

"Kuma! We were so worried!" Happy yelled and I smile at the cat. Behind him I see another cat. With purple fur and black eyes my mouth gives a small smile.

"Neeya!"

She cried and runs into my arms. "Kuma! Dont leave me again!" Neeya was my cat that I had to seperate with to save her life. Hugging her tightly I feel so relieved. I missed her so much! Uncle Natsu smiled at us and then pointed behind him. "So Im guessing he was telling the truth!" Looking up I see a boy taller than me with a high pony tail that reached his waist. He wore a simple gray button down and black jeans with heavy boots. My feet couldnt move fast enough.

"KOGA!"

He laughed at my excitement and patted my back. His arms were strong around me. I think I started to cry because he scoffed. "The great Earth Dragon Slayer, Kuma, crying? Well I'll be damned." Hitting his arm I laugh and then got serious.

"Dennevah and Claire is down stairs fighting a girl named Pricella. You have to help them!" Koga too looked impassive. "You mean you didnt hear? Jellal said that the Etherion will be firing in less than twenty five minutes. If we dont all get out of here by then, it's over. We're playing Heaven's Game." My eyes widened in shock. "The ETRHERION?!" Uncle Natsu nodded his head solemnly. Happy said a quiet "Aye" and Neeya started shivering.

"I have to find Lu- Reiga. I have to end him before he ruins another life!"

"It's too dangerous! Let's just get Dennevah and Claire and lets go!"

Shaking my head I get ready to run. "I have to many people to get out to just run. Besides your talking to the fastest runner in Yokai!" "Fine then. Then Im coming too. Neeya you get out of here!" The cat spread her wings and smiled. "Im not getting seperated again!" Uncle Natsu told me to be careful because Jellal also had members of Trinity Raven hunting fairies in the tower. Nodding we split up and head in opposite directions.

That was the last time I saw Uncle Natsu through human eyes.

-Flashback-

"COME ON! Hurry up! We're gonna get caught!"

"Im trying my best!" Dennevah cried.

"Shuddap, Squirt!" Claire screeched.

Kuma, Claire and Dennevah were running through the halls of the building that held the magic council. In Claire's arms were the blue prints to the basic design of the R-systems top half. Dennevah and Claire were at least two feet behind Kuma. She was a very fast runner, never tripping over anything. They turned the corner and heard heavy footsteps of rune knights fast approaching.

Kuma pushed Neeya, Claire and Dennevah behind a large statue that easily concealed them. Taking the blue prints out of the canister she gave it to them and kept the tube. "Listen. Get these where ever they need to go. As soon as I scream run as fast as you can. Henran and Koga should be on the other side. Neeya can smell just as good as I can. Be safe you three."

"NO! Dont go!" Neeya hollered.

But Kuma was already running as fast as her little legs could carry and that was far. Dennevah, Claire and Neeya heard the knights passed by the statue chasing after the girl. They saw the canister in her hand and assumed that because she was the fastest runner, the red head gave it to her. After a hot chase down several halways a man with tuffs of white hair and barely tall enough to compare to a chair, caught her. His arm had wrapped around the child and she roared as loud as the dragon who taught her. Dennevah, Claire and Neeya took that chance to go.

"Thank you, Master Makarov."

Kuma locked eyes with the old man and gave a tiny smile of respect. She dropped the canister and surrendered easily. Makarov felt sorry for the young one as the Rune Knights surrounded her. One picked up the cylindar and whirled on the child.

"WHERE ARE THE BLUE PRINTS?!" She shrugged and smiled. "Some where on the continent. See ya!" The ground beneath them shook and she dove underground. Makarov looked genuinley impressed.

The kid thought of everything.
