Light the Fire of Shandora:

-x-

While two vicious battles had been fought and won by the Straw Hats on Upper Yard, down below it in their settlement on the White Sea the Shandian warriors had continued their strategy meeting after a brief recess.

Aisa had watched as Braham and Kamakiri went into the tent and rejoined the meeting and decided to peek through the door to see what it was all about.

"So Gan Fall the former God made his way into Upper Yard alone," Wyper recapped. "This will not sit well with Eneru."

"Do you think Gan Fall's trying to take back what he lost?" Kamakiri inquired.

"No way," another Shandian insisted. His name was Genbo. He had pale skin and was nearly as round as Satori. His head was shaved bald and on top of it he wore a white and dark yellow striped hat that resembled a chef's hat. A brown belt went diagonally across his large round chest and belly which was left uncovered. His arms were in a pair of long sleeves that went from his wrists to his shoulders and were covered in giraffe-like spots. He had the customary white Shandian wings on his shoulders and wore a short brown grass skirt. "That old fart's never had the guts to try before. Why would he now?"

FWOOM! At that exact moment Shura drove his burning lance through Gan Fall's body.

THWHAAAAM! Elsewhere, Sanji smashed his foot down on the top of Satori's head.

"AAAAAAHHH!" Aisa screamed and stumbled into the tent. Aisa's scream and presence drew the attention of all the Shandian warriors in the meeting. Aisa suddenly found herself standing in the middle of the tent in front of Wyper, who just earlier she had said that she found even scarier than God. "AAAAHH!" The girl screamed again then ran and hid behind Laki.

"What's the matter Aisa?" Laki inquired as the girl peeked out from behind her.

"Two voices... they're gone..." the scared girl answered.

"Your Mantra?" Wyper inquired.

Aisa nodded. "Yes," she confirmed. "It just happened."

"Grrr..." Wyper growled which caused Aisa to duck back behind Laki again. "You're saying you heard two voices... and then they disappeared suddenly? You need to be honest with me. Is this true?"

Aisa merely whimpered despite the fact that the scary warrior was doing a remarkable job of keeping calm while dealing with the girl.

"I assume that's a 'yes'," Laki informed Wyper. "We should believe her. Ever since she was born she's been able to use her ability of Mantra to sense people, even those who are far away from her. There is no mistaking her gift." Clearly Aisa wasn't 'just' a little Shandian girl. Laki glanced down at Aisa, "You sure you don't hear them? They're not there anymore?"

"Yeah... I think it stopped," Aisa answered, "But... it seemed like Gan Fall was fighting a Priest and they..."

"Killed each other?" Kamakiri supplied.

"Nicely done old man," Braham remarked.

"HOO!" Kiko howled, "Only three priests left now!"

"Which is good for us," Wyper realized.

"No... it was..." Aisa timidly attempted to correct the scary warrior.

SLA-SLISH! Just then Y/N slashed Shura with his blood red sword.

"AAAAAAAAHHHH!" Aisa screamed.

"AAAAAHH!" Kiko, who had been sitting next to Laki, jumped at the girl's sudden scream and then screamed right back at her.
