A/N: Bonus scene, right after the fight.
Chapter 2.5
Hm, end of the road. No way forward, just more cliff's edge. Why the heck did the Company drop me here then?
"What now?" I said, not really expecting any answer.
"I don't know, dearest," Sellen muttered distractedly.
"Can you fly? With your magic, I mean?" I asked curiously.
"No, Glintstone sorcery would never allow you to fly. Unless you somehow have incredible resistance to the turning,"
"The what now?"
She huffed, "I'll explain it later. What you need to know is, even if someone, somehow discovers a way to fly with Glintstone sorcery, they would not be able to fly long, maybe only for a few seconds, longer than that they risk their whole body turning into glintstone. So no, I can't fly, dearest, even if I can, the land on the other side is too far."
"You could have just said no," I said, teasing her.
Her brows twitched, then she sighed, "No, my love, I can't fly, there."
I chuckled, "Sorry, sorry, I did tell you I need every piece of information I could get, my bad, love." I hugged her sideways.
"Hmph," she harrumphed, but still leaned her head on the crook of my shoulder.
"So.. what now?" I chuckled nervously.
"..." I was met with silence.
"Maybe we cou-"
CRACK.
"What was that?" I asked.
I realized a moment too late, "RUN BACK,"
Just as I turned around and Sellen's eyes widened, the ground fell beneath us.
Then we were free-falling from the cliff.
We both screamed our heads off.
"Shit shit shit- not like this,"
"Aaron, your eyes!" Her voice was muffled by the wind, limbs flailing, her robed clothing getting in her face, if I wasn't free falling toward my death, I would have laughed.
"What?!" I yelled back over the harsh wind.
"YOUR EYES!"
"I CAN'T HEAR YOU!"
"USE YOUR EYES, YOU DUMB BRUTE!" She yelled harder, her face stricken in panic.
What? Oh right!
Mangekyō Sharingan.
I looked at Sellen. KAMUI.
Then myself. KAMUI.
We arrived in the Kamui Dimension, just as we fell on our asses-
"AAAAaaaAaAAaaAAAHH!"
Only to be greeted by the unholy screech of the monster we just fought, free now it seemed.
Shit forgot it was in here.
KAMUI.
I dumped it into the real world in panic.
"Wait, won't it die falling from that high?" Sellen asked from beside me.
Fuck! If it dies, I won't be getting those points!
Okay, KAMUI.
I found myself falling again, my face instantly got slapped by the wind. I shielded my face and looked down—seeing the beast.. screaming in terror? Probably my imagination—as it fell toward the seas below.
Fuck. What do I do? Ah shit, improvise, improvise!
KAMUI. It got sucked into the Kamui dimension.
I Kamui'd myself inside as well.
The beast thrashed on the ground as it suddenly found even footing again, strangely silent this time.
Uh, what to do? How do I hold it?
Oh! right, here goes,
"Hey! You dumb bitch! Look into my eyes!"
The dumb bitch stared into my eyes.
GENJUTSU.
'Sleep, sleep, fucking sleep you fuck!'
And then its whole body slumped to the ground.
I finally slouched my shoulder, sitting on the ground..
There was silence for a few seconds..
"Pff- Hahahahaha," Sellen laughed from behind me.
I could not help myself, the adrenaline was coming down too, I joined her in laughter.
"HAHAHAHA-"
"Hahaha,"
I lunged for Sellen sitting form, pushed her shoulder to the ground, and held her there, both my arms beside her face.
She stared up at me, eyes open wide in surprise, pupils trembling, breath coming in hard, her face red.
She reached behind me, placing both her hands firmly behind my head, then kissed me hard on my lips, her eyes closing.
What a shitty way to almost test our supposed immortality.
BONUS SCENE, I just cant get this out of my head, so I had to write it.
As for how Aaron can use long and short range kamui as if it was pocket changes? Uh, reasons..? yup, Oh! right, Soul Talent!
