Shadowed Light(Crossfight B-Daman Fanfiction)

Chapter 3:Answers

Sakura's P.O.V.

"You want us to follow you two?"Novu and Simon gaped at Samuru.

"Shah!And you're bringing a girl too!"Sumiya muttered.

"And you don't really trust me..."Novu murmured.

"You guys...I'm willing to trust you,Novu.Just don't backstab me,"Samuru glared at the both of them,"And Simon,I think its time for you to get rid of your stupid phobia."

"Okay..."They muttered(Although I do notice Simon wasn trying not to stand close to me.What the heck is wrong with him?)

"You said you needed to find Karuno Ayuke,right?I met him before,"Novu said.

"Really?"I asked.

"Sure.He works at a little B-Daman research centre,"Novu smiled.

Simon jumped up,"Well,what are we waiting for?Let's go then."

Samuru's P.O.V

"If this is little,I wonder what's huge,"Sumiya muttered.

I nodded in agreement as I stared up at the sixteen-story building.Novu was speaking to a worker from the building.Sakura just scrutinized it.

"Are you nervous?"

Dravise's voice snapped me awake.He had been so quiet for five hours.A world record.

"Don't scare me like that,"I muttered.

Dravise snorted.

"...thanks a lot,"Novu finally finished talking with the worker.Then he turned to us,"Apparently,Karuno works on the third level.We'd better hurry.It's almost time for him to leave."

We rushed up to the third floor.As we were walking towards the third-level office,I bumped into a man.

"Sorry!"I said, helping the man to pick up his folders that he had dropped.

Then I saw his name tag.

"Karuno Ayuke"

"Are you Mr Ayuke?"I asked, handing the folders to him.

"Who are you?"The man asked, looking suspicious.

Answering a question by asking a question,typical adults,I thought.

"Samuru Shigami,"I answered.

The man almost dropped his folders again.

"Samuru?"The man repeated,"Well,hello there.I'm Karuno Ayuke,your mother's old friend."

Sakura's P.O.V.

"You want to know about the prophecy? I guess your father is dead.He was a good friend,like your mother,"Mr Ayuke sighed,"Your father told me to tell you the prophecy after he died.I don't know why."

He took out a recording device from his pocket,"Here.I have always kept it inside my pocket for safety.It has been translated by your father."

Samuru took it from his hand and played it.

" One shall rise from the ashes of the old,alone with both sires gone from the world.

The master of wind and dragon he is,to calm the shadow that has been released.

The wielders of three more shall rise and follow,Masters of fire,light and earth,to defeat the darkness from the shadow,and banish the evil forever more.'

I blinked.The last stanza it sounded familiar.But where did I hear it...

Samuru stared at the tape.

"What has this prophecy got to do with me?"he asked.

"Sires(parents) gone.Master of wind and dragon.That's you,"I said.

"Shah!But what about the other three masters?"Simon muttered.

"Fire is Novu.Light is me.Earth is you.That is really obvious.Who else could it be?,"I said.Simon opened his mouth,probably to give a smart answer.

"You mean I'm that One!But Riki,Kamon..."Samuru trailed off.Simon looked annoyed.

"You are the One,"Mr Ayuke said firmly.

All was silent.

Samuru looked down,"I-"

If you want to find out the reason why.Head to the woods of the West.They will hold the answer.But be careful.Something lurks in those dark woods,"Mr Ayuke cautioned.

You mean you don't know what it is ,I thought.

"But what will happen if Samuru dies?I mean its possible,right?"Simon asked,glancing at Samuru.

Mr Ayuke turned solemn,"Then,the world will be enveloped in Darkness."
