Marks of the Demon Queen

Chapter 7

Recap of the last chapter, also please review and if you have any suggestions tell me in the reviews. Also sorry for the late update. I forgot to say that Mikan and everyone else are 14 years old.

"We will be having a battle to test your strengths and magical power" the class cheered. Just then Persona started to emit an evil aura.

"And your opponent will be the person right next to you."

"WHAT!" everyone screamed? They couldn't fight their best friend. The students were protesting. Who in their right mind would want to fight their best friend? Persona, who was keeping quiet, was getting annoyed at the moment and was waiting for everyone to shut their mouths, which never happened.

Persona shot a bolt of lightning at the sky to shut them up, which worked perfectly. "Now, I know you sissies don't want to hurt your 'best friend', but you'll have to suck it up" Persona stated. "Now our first pair will be..." he looked around the crowed and stopped at a pair, "Anna and Nonoko." He said. The two of them paled and looked at each other.

Persona sighed and was about to set them on fire but stopped when Mikan came and whispered something in his ear. Persona nodded and looked back at the class.

"Alright, since you sissies don't want to fight, then how about everyone against Mikan?" started Persona. His tone said you-don't-have-a-choice-so-suck-it-up. "Sure I want to see what Miss level 20 can do," shouted Luna.

Everyone walked to the crystal ball and opposite from Mikan. "Alright, the object of the match is to touch Mikan, well if you can," Persona turned to Mikan "you have to knock them out before times up and not let them touch you, got it?" asked Persona. Mikan and the rest nodded and faced each other.

Persona shot a bolt of lightning in the sky and the match started.

"So how is she doing?" asked a cloaked man? He looked about 6 feet tall, he was addressing the person beside him. The person stayed silent before answering "she's pounding her friends inside a crystal ball" answered the person. The other sweat dropped at her words and voice. If he hadn't know her better he would have thought that she was angry.

The man took of his hood and leaned against a tree. They were correctly in the forest outside the Academy. The man had brown hair and blood red eyes. The woman took her hood off too. She had brown hair and red eyes.

"So, how will she do?" asked the man.

"Just like Miki said" the woman replied.

"So it's going to come true after all huh"

"Yep, and there's nothing we can do about it"

"Humans….. They really are stupid" said the man.

The woman looked at him then back to the school in the far distance.

The man looked at her then within a flash they disappeared.

Xoxoxoxoxoxo

Mikan hadn't moved since the fight began. Students launched punches and kicks, but she didn't even budge.

A student came from behind and, arms stretched and all, tried to touch Mikan. She moved to the side and the boy ran straight into 6 other students.

All the students gathered over to one side like they had been when they started. All of them at once started to chant a spell. They raised both of their hands in the air and all the magical power shot upwards and formed a ball.

All the balls floated up higher in to the air and started to mash with each other. Because all the colors were different it looked like an art project gone wrong. Once all the balls were together it fired a beam at Mikan.

Mikan was standing there, she looked like she wasn't going to move, and she didn't. She raised her right hand and she pointed her index finger and the beam disappeared before it even got within 2 feet of her.

The class was shocked then scared when Mikan pointed her finger at them.

A very small magic circle appeared and it started to spark with little lighting. The spark fired and hit the group of students before they knew what was coming.

There was a huge flash of light and when it disappeared there was a mass of students body's on the floor.

The only ones standing were the people she hated most. Natsume stared and Mikan stared back. It went on like this for a short while before Mikan made the first move.

Mikan went to punch Natsume but he blocked and kicked her in the side sending her flying. Luckily she landed on her feet in time to catch Koko's foot. She held him by the foot and twirled him like a rag doll. She let go of him which sent him flying into Kitsu.

Natsume created a ball of fire and sent it towards Mikan who tried to move to the side but was held in place by some weeds coming out of the floor, courtesy of Ruka. The fire ball hit Mikan dead on.

The gang gathered and watched as the fire burned the vines that were attached to her.

"Did we do it?" asked Nonoko.

"I don't know but I hope we did," answered Kitsu.

"I don't think that would be enough to get rid of her" stated Hotaru.

Just then a beam of black light shot out of the fire and curved forward to go to the gang. They dodged but the light was following them. Koko put up a barrier and when the light stopped chasing Nonoko it came towards him the barrier shattered and he was turned instantly turned to stone.

The black light disappeared and Anna immediately ran to Koko's side. To where the black light came Mikan emerged and looked over to Koko.

Anna was holding Koko and was crying. She carefully put down his body and stood up slowly, body shacking. She took a step closer to Mikan, a black light was forming around her body. Her hair was starting to rise and it was turning black with red streaks.

"Give him back, give him back, give him back, GIVE HIM BACK!" Anna screamed and launched at Mikan at inhuman speed. She went for a kick but Mikan was able to block. Mikan took Anna's hand and swung her into the crystal, shattering it.

"Alright, stop," shouted Persona, but Anna didn't listen. She raised both her hands over each other and light started to gather into her palms. She brought her hands back and pushed forward and the light shot at Mikan. She dodged but the light scattered into ten each and were overlapping each other and were chasing her.

Mikan jumped up into the air and started to fly in all directions. Mikan stopped in the center of the room and the light came and rushing at her from all sides. The light collided with Mikan head on creating a big flash.

The light diminished after a few seconds and what was left was no longer a happy site.

Persona's POV

I can't believe what I'm seeing. I could understand Anna, with her fondness for Koko but Mikan I don't understand.

When Koko was turned to stone it triggered something inside of Anna, so that all of her Magical power that she has kept under the seal was unleashed at once and was directed towards Mikan.

But why is Mikan like this? The last time this happened . . . . Shit!

Normal POV

"What the hell is that?" asked Sumire.

"I don't know, but I don't like it," answered Ruka.

Natsume and the rest nodded their heads. Nonoko was looking at Anna and saw that she was being held down by veins with thorns. The thorns were digging into her flesh, making it look a green and black color.

Nonoko was about to go to Anna's side when she heard a cruel laugh come from all around them. The veins that were on Anna tightened making her scream. After a few 2 minutes Anna's hair turned back to normal and she fell unconscious.

Mikan raised her hand the clouds parted, making a perfect circle in the sky. Inside the circle the face of a skull appeared.

The skull started to spin, causing the wind to pick up.

"You have to stop that!" shouted Persona over the wind. The wind kept getting stronger and stronger as the seconds went by.

"We have to converge all of our powers to create an unbreakable shield!" shouted Kitsu. The others nodded and gathered all the power they could find and created a multi colored shield.

"She can't break through this, no matter how strong she is" said Yuu.

As if his prayers were answered, a plasma ball hit the shield. And another and another and another. The plasma balls kept coming for 5 whole minutes before they stopped.

"She converted wind into plasma balls, that's impossible!" shouted Nonoko.

"Well she did it" said Natsume.

"Did she give up?" asked Sumire.

"I hope, because this it starting to wear me out" said Yuu.

"Dude, don't jinx us" said Kitsu.

"Well what-" Yuu didn't get to finish because a strong wind hit the shield making a crack in it.

Everything was suddenly quiet, too quiet.

On the outside of the shield, Mikan was chanting a spell. A spell which put Persona on edge.

ESP'S Office

"What is this uneasy feeling?" asked the ESP.

"It's her sir" answered his secretary.

"Who?"

"Mikan Sakura"

"Oh, what's she doing?"

"She is about to destroy the schools most beloved group of students" said his secretary, Mindy.

"Hm, take this chance to analyze her power. I want to see what she is made of." ordered the ESP.

"Yes sir."

"Also activate the schools anti-magic around the gym"

"As you wish sir"

Back at the gym

I call upon the forces of the underworld

With the contract I have

I summon the lord of souls and death

Do my betting and destroy anything in my path

I command you to be by my side

The Grim Reaper

So how was it? Was it good? To me it wasn't that good. I'll try to make it much better. And for the person who asked me if this was going to have a lot of chapters, it will. Thanks to those who review. I had writers block today so that's why this is late. Please read and review, it would help, and if you have any suggestion don't hold back, I'll try to put it in if I can. Bye.

PS. I know the story is confusing now but you will understand in the future.
