Elemental School

Chapter 26 - Form.

"You- Want to go out with me?" I ask. She nodded slowly, her eyes looked like she was tired, in fact- her whole face does. She stares at the floor. She looks all uncertain. "How come you were trying to marry this guy if you wanted to date me?" I ask. "I wasn't the one that wanted to marry him." She said, quietly. Her voice tinged with sadness. She sighs. "I never chose this type of path. It's like I never had anyone with me from the time being."She looks up at me, with that glare that struck me deep. Her face's expression shows the serious in her. Her face shows serious, but her eyes shows depression. I can hear her scoff, seeing her cough, as I can see tears rolling down her face. Why... She fall to her knees, sniffing, like she's trying to hold back. I can hear her yelp and cries. It reminds me of a little kid, crying. I kneel down in front of her. "Why are you crying?" I finally notice this type of side of her. Her girly side, it's cute."I don't know." She sniff again. I can hear her type of whine in her tone. I hear someone grunt, and I glare behind me. Zaerak, was still alive. 

He struggles and moves really slow, trying to take it easy. He grunted. "What the- how can you do that? Shooting something that is in the speed of light." I stood up, still glaring at him. I felt someone grab my leg, so I look downwards, seeing who grabbed my leg. Haruko. She wipe her eyes, as I can see her seriousness in her face now. She tries to lift herself up, but I grab her arm and lift her up, helping her. She stumbles, but she recatch her rebalance. What happened? "Zaerak." She said. "I remember you said that this man is a weak elemental citizen." I watch her speak, with her lips swiftly moving and her eyes almost narrowing. I look over at Zaerak, with my eyes narrowed. His face expression means hurt, and afraid. "Look how easily he has almost kill you." I watch him build back to his feet, with his sword in his grasp. He coughs blood, and stumbles. "This fool, cannot win against Kurou." He stuttered.I let go of Haruko's arm, letting her arm drop, as I walk towards him. I see Zaerak, position himself, then he froze, staring at me. I know what he sees in me."Do you see it?" I ask him. The tone of my voice tinged with serious, and cold."I.." He stutters.

"Your a darkness citizen.." He stutters again. This time, he falls back. I know how I should look like, as a corrupted darkness citizen. Me calling myself a corrupted one, is true. Because I'm a half god. I have the devil ears, with my iris colour black. But as a representative to the fire dragon, my sclera colour, is red. The red looks faded, and looks like my eyes represents the meaning, death. 

He stands up quickly and whips his blade at me. The blade slams into my neck, on the left side, as it cuts and was slam into my flesh. I can see anger in his eyes.I feel the pain hit my neck, yet it feels different. 

"Your power divines from mine." I sigh. "Poor fools." He let go of his blade, as he backs away from me until he hits the ledge of the tower. He has no where to escape. I grab the handle of his blade, as I drag it out of my flesh. I twirl the sword, as I jab it towards him.

I hear Zaerak mumble, with his voice tingling with fear.

"It's time to die." I finally answered.

He instantly jump onto the ledge, and purposely falls off the ledge. What? I run towards the ledge of the tower, as I lean forward, looking downwards. I see his corpse impacted to the earth's crust. Blood splattered around him, as he died from height distance. Did I really scare him that much?

"Katsu." I hear Haruko said. I look over at her, seeing her eyes widen. "What's wrong with you?" She walks towards me. I can hear her footsteps. "Noticing I'm a corrupted darkness citizen, it's a huge impact to me and my life. I'm just angry with that guy." Referring to Zaerak. "From all of us, it's just isn't fair. Kyzou, Zailura, everyone. They didn't go through what I had to bear. Me becoming a corrupted darkness citizen, people seeing the death in my eyes."She stood tall in front of me, yet her height is the same as mine. "Your eyes represents the death to your enemies, and your eyes would look like this if your form turn into a darkness citizen." She explained. 

She slightly put her warm hand on my cheek, which surprised me. "You are right though. Your the only one to bear all of this chaos."She puts her arms around my waist, as she rest her head onto my chest, where my heart should supposely be. "But I'm also here to bear it with you."We said nothing for a couple of minutes, as she still hugs me."Also." I said, wanting to break the silent."I accept."

"Accept what?" She asked.

"I will go out with you."I feel her arms tighten around me. 

"Just because I asked you?"

"No... I love you too."

We said nothing again, but now I know one certain thing. I can have my trust with her and I know this ain't a dream.

We meet back in front of the castle, with everyone regrouped. Jiao, was giving Gen a piggy back, yet I can see her struggle. I offered to help, and gave Gen a piggy back ride instead. I see bandages wrapped around him. I was treated next, with my neck and stomach bandaged. My fingers was slightly bandaged. We were able to lift the gauntlets off our wrist with a crowbar that we found from a DOES soldier, that was armed with it. And the gauntlets did had spikes underneath, so spikes was stabbed in our wrist, all around it, so everyone expect Haruko had their wrists bandaged. We know those type of pain would heal in a day or two, because of our immortality, cause the spikes was small and tiny, but there was ALOT. Maybe a thousand for each gauntlet?Zailura and Kyzou was able to find our weapons in a storage lock room, behind the throne, as there was a secret passage. Thankfully our weapons were founded.

We couldn't find Zaerak's corpse on our way out though, so that's scary.We all walked along the side walk, walking away from the castle- yet we are in bare public. It's useless to hide, comparing we destroyed the castle- A man slams down, in front of us, blocking our path. I see 2 black huge tanks, armed with sandbags and wires over it, roll behind the man. The tank's barrels aim at us. A couple of soldiers from each side of the tanks appears and crouched in front of the tanks, and behind the man. They aim their guns at us. I recognize black chain metal trench coat, the black gloves and his black hair, also seeing the devil ears and the red eyes. That ponytail behind his head.

"So you manage to scare the shit out of Zaerak and kill him." Said Kurou. Zaerak's left arm was sling around Kurou's neck. Kurou was the one that lifted and drag Zaerak's body away. "Impressive."He smirks. "So you scared him by using your true form. Well done." I snickered at him, with my eyes narrowed. I gently place Gen on the floor, as I raise my sword from my sheathe, unclipping it. Black smokes crawls out of the case, as it wraps around my blade. The blade turns black, as two blades were grown onto the handle of my sword.Kurou's sword hangs from the back of his waist, with his sword tucked in his case. He drops Zaerak to the floor, as he unsheathe his black katana, with a red cloth as a handle.

"There is no escaping."

This time, I said it.
