Royalty

Chapter 27

3rd POV

Smoke billowed into the air from buildings as battle cries, animal calls and the sounds of weapons against weapons created a uncoordinated symphony through the destroyed village.

The Elemental Masters spun around with coloured tornadoes. All the Animal-Hybrid Ninja were using their skills to the bes tof their abilities but, with their newfound confidence; they were cutting down more snakes then before.

Kit threw his sword at Aspiksar whom blocked it with her spear. The snake glared at the boy as he bared his teeth.

"You're not gonna win this, Aspiksar!" Kit cried as he skidded back but charged once more; jumping into the air, activating spinjitzu before coming to a stop and slashing his sword.

"Oh, I Think I Am!" Aspiksar cackled as she thrusted her spear and cut Kit along his right hip. "You Have No Animal Abilities! You're Weak!"

She then kicked him in the back so he stumbled.

"Not Weak." Kit breathed. "Just at a slight disadvantage but I make up for it with THIS! FIRE!"

He thrusts his open palm in the direction of Aspiksar as fire shoots out. Aspiksar threw up her hands to block her eyes from the flames. This was enough of a distraction for Kit to charge, sword at the ready; ignoring the stinging pain in his side.

No two stronger foes had faced off like this before. Weapons clashing. Fire being thrown. Screams and cries echoing in their ears as they softly became muffled as Kit's heart thundered so loudly, he could hear it in his ears. Feel it in his throat. His chest ached at the feeling of his heart thrashing against his rib cage. He gritted his teeth as a growl rumbled deep in his throat.

"The snakes are defeated!" Griffin exclaimed as the group gathered. "They've either been killed or retreated."

"But What About, Kit?!" Tox exclaimed as she brouth everyone's attention to where the boy and Aspilsar faced off on a mound of fallen rubble.

"We Have To Help Him!" Lloyd cried.

"We Can't!" Morro replied as he placed a hand on the dragon hybrid's shoulder. "This is his fight. Not ours. He's the one that has to do this."

"Morro is right, nephew." Wu hummed. "The most we can do is act as back up."

Suddenly more snakes arrived; dressed in armour and with bigger reinforcements.

"Ob, Come On!" Jay wined with anger an annoyance just as everyone charged at the reassembled snakes.

"Just Give Up, Young Cub!" Aspiksar hissed as she threw a bunch of kunai knives.

"Never!" Kit dpat as he caetwheeled and, miraculously, managed to dodge each one.

Once he landed on his feet, he reached into the fold on his gi. when he retracted his hand, he gave it a flick and a shuriken suddenly appeared between each finger. He threw them with such precision, a normal person would have trouble dodging. Aspiksar just managed to slither out of the way but was cut along the right cheek with the corner of one.

Kit charged and was a flurry of roundhouse kicks that the snake queen was having trouble with her balance. Kit suddenly went low and sweeped the Viperion's feet out from under her. He then pointed his sword to her neck.

"Oh, Kearin~" She purred. "What are we doing~? Why cant we just rule side by side? We've got some good chemistry, have we not~?"

"You're idea of chemistry is raping me till I pass out." he hissed. "And My Name is Kit...!"

"Wait!" Aspiksar cried as Kit raised his sword. "Don't you wanna know what happened to your parents...?!"

"My... Parents...?!" Kit did the biggest fault one could do. He lowered his guard. "But... They're fine...!"

"Hm~? You really think so~? They're dead, Kit."

"Wha-What?!" Kit lowered his sword and stumbled back a few steps. "NO!

"Yes...! It Explains Why They Only Made An Appearance When You Arrived And That Time When They Met Your Friends, No?! I Killed Them! Isn't That Exciting To Hear?!"

"NO! YOU'RE A MURDERER!" Tears flew from Kits eyes as he threw his head down. His body began to heat up.

"Yes~! You're The Last Ruler Of Kean! The Last of The Vanara Family!"

"No! No! NO! YOU'RE LYING!"

"Oh, I Wish I was~!" she then held up her right hand to show the two silver, ruby encrusted wedding bandss that Kit's parents wore.

Kits heart seemed to stop at this. His parents really were gone... Those rings were his. They belonged to his parents so they should belong to him. Fire danced by his feet as rage bubbled inside of him. His pupils dialated into slits as a growl rumbled in his throat.

Fire burned inside. The inner flames were kindled in his stomach before it spreed to his feet and hands. Before it crawled up his throat before it seemed to sizzle in his brain. The sensation would burn anyone else but this feeling was satisfying. It was a calming feeling. A Feeling Of Power...

A beast stirred inside... It pulled at its restraints... It shook the cage... Then it broke free. Kit's body errupted into flames as a pain filled scream ripped throufh the air, before morphing into the greatest bone shaking roar in history; head thrown back as emphasis. A vibrant red light shot into the air as a res, moon dwarfing silhouette of a lion took up the soace above the small boy.

Flames caught in Kit's hair. caught in his fingernails. A lion tail emerged from his back and the tuft of fur caught fire as lion ears emerged from his head. He lowered his head as his dilated, cat like eyes burned into Aspiksar's own snake like ones.

From within the palace, the stained glass window that showed the Kit in his beast form seemed to light up with non-exhistant light. If one was in the room, you'd be able to feel the heat radiating off of it.

Back on the battlefield, Aspiksar stumbled back as fear finally crossed her face. Kit smirked with devilish intent; fangs bared.

"My Turn, Bitch."
