Anemoia Echoes

A Soothing Heart (39)

-Nerifu District-

Shaman was no longer crying but her tears still drips down her cheek. "Why..." She began to stand up and look at Aikasuyuri. She was trying to wipe away her tears but she couldn't stop it seem fully realized that she wasn't plagued by the effects of the dread over her death.  The blue wisps of aura was surrounding her. 

Aikasuyuri of the Nerifu District, The sleepy nature of hers was wiped away and replaced with disapproval looks on her face. "That rouge system even now is interfering with my district now!" She stomp her feet and the music of the world began once more. She was staring directly at the blue aura of energy around Shaman.

Shaman kept her eyes on Aikasuyuri as she felt the world begin to change. Her sense heighten, as she dodged a bullet from behind her head without turning. She had a blue aura surrounding her and she felt so much more calm but her tears were never-ending. "I'm going... to keep my...promised even if it hurts so much." She had a spark of confidence in her eyes as she grip her chest. "I going to win Nerifu District!" 

The awakened Aikasuyuri glared at Shaman. "To think that I have accidentally released him into my district! No matter, at least he won't last long in whatever form that thing is." She began to ramp up the difficulty of the fight. "If I kill you again and again, He won't have the energy to last!" She rapidly sped up the bullets in all directions as the music sped up and began to remix itself to a faster song. She wanted to kill Shaman who seems to be under the protection of this blue energy that helped them fight this Nerifu District.

Shaman felt a warmth inside her own heart as she felt relieved from her earlier pains as the Horizon energy around her was speaking to her soul as it was slowly fading away each second. She heard no words nor sounds but she knows what it is trying to do. She had to beat the District here and now or risk dying in a cycle once more. She was building up her confidence deep inside as she felt this warmth of energy trying to keep her up. "Thank you" Her eyes lit up in good spirits, and became hyper-focus on the task she needs to work on now. 

Aikasuyuri tries to make the fight even more difficult than before as she added more than the usual fight. She decided to fire a straight bullet at Shaman while also keeping up with their bullet hell attack. The firing of the bullets was her pointing at Shaman with her pointer finger and firing a single bullet. Her face became saturated with fierce glares that could kill someone with a look.

Shaman without a single dodge with its grace as she senses most of these bullets coming at her despite their speed and aggressive nature she was able to keep herself out of the way at times. "I feel like I could see everything but... The enhanced scene is slowly fading." The energy that was surrounding her was helping her with tremendous all-sensing ability but it was clear that the longer the bullet went, it was slowly fading away. She began to watch her step more as the fight became more difficult due to both the District and fading energy. She suddenly heard a violent scream of anger as the bullets that were firing at her directly became a quick-burst laser that was extremely fast and bigger than before. She felt the beam cut straight through her right fox ear, leaving a hole partly in her ear but it didn't deter her. She felt minor pain in her ear but it was slowly hurting more. The fight of Nerifu District was twisting her wrist harder than before her life.

Aikasuyuri was spamming her attack with no regard nor pattern at Shaman but barely making any difference in the fight ever since Shaman's vindication. Aikasuyuri spent all her energy finishing off Shaman as she began breathing heavily. She was slowly showing her exhausted body as she began to bend her knees and her action slow down. "I can't believe you! I can't believe you're doing this to me!" She flared up once more to regain her advantage.

Shaman was too showing a failure rate as she began receiving damage from the fight. She was paying attention to what Aikasuyuri was saying but it felt like that comment wasn't directed at her but at this energy that was surrounding her. She doesn't know if she going to make it out with this flare of energy from Aikasuyuri. "Please let this be over already..." She felt her pain getting to her and her body responding less than before.
