Adventures of Nina!

Heartache

Nina's perspective

I return to Super Dimension, only to see Emi doing the paperwork I left in my office. "Emi? What're you doing?" I asked. "Oh. Hey big sis. I just thought I should do some work around the Basilicom. I already cleaned the whole place, did our laundry, and even made us some lunch. I was just finishing a few more documents." She told me. I was shocked at how fast she finished all that. "Y-You did all that in one hour?" I stuttered. "Yup!" She answers, and puts her pen down. "I just thought you could use a break after all you've been through." She says. I smile, and ruffle her hair around. "Thanks, kid. You did great. I think need a break now. C'mon. Let's eat that lunch." I say. She giggles, and nods happily, leading me to the dining room.

After our little meal, Kon walks up to us. "Lady Nina. Toshiki is here again." She told me. "Ugh... Again? What does he want?" I asked. "He says he has important business to talk about." She tells me. I nod, and walk over to him. "What is it, Toshiki?" I asked him. "Nina! There you are! I have bad news, and worse news!" He panics. "What's the bad news?" I ask. "A nation is being built." He said. "And the worse news?" I ask again. "Zoa has been spotted there building it." He says. "Zoa...?" I wonder, and put a crooked smile on my face. "Now I can get some revenge." I say. "No. I won't allow you to." He blocks my path. "And who said you have the right to tell me what I can and cannot do?!" I shout at him. "I don't want you dying again!" He shouts back. I was taken aback from this statement, but remained adamant. "Why do you care about me all of sudden...?" I wondered. "I always cared about you. What made you think otherwise?" He asked. "Don't give me that bullshit! I saw you! You had a girl pinned to the wall in your Basilicom! Don't even try to drag me back! Do you think love is just a game?!" I yell. "Y-You know I would never-" "Yeah right!" I cut him off, and manifest an arrow out the air around me, and point it at him. "Get outta my way, and get outta my head! I trusted you! I actually loved you! But you crushed it! Now leave! I'm not listening to anything else you have to say!" I say, and pull the string back, taking aim. He puts his arms up, and I could see a crocodile tear run down his face. He transforms, and started flying. I thought he was going to leave, but he attacked me instead. "Fine then... If I can't have you...then no one can!!" He shouts, and swings his sword at me. I block, and fire off my arrow at him, destroying one of his wings. "What the hell, Toshiki?! What's gotten into you?!" I scream at him. "I won't let anyone take you... Not...anyone...!" He mutters, and switches his weapon out for two sub machine guns. I immediately take him outside. So the fight begins...

As I fly around the city of Lowee, Toshiki shoots at me, regenerating his broken wing, and flys after me. I try to dodge all the bullets as best I can, but still get hit from time to time. I grit my teeth, and produce another arrow, firing it at him as soon as it manifests. He move to the side, and I fire off another one. "What's gotten into him...?" I ask myself. I charge up five more arrows, and shoot. I mange to hit him once, but that's about it. I pull the string back, and fire off a small ball that fires off more arrows it forms. I look down below to see Emi moving the citizens into their homes. As I do so, I get shot in the leg, and wince from the surprise pain. While distracted, Toshiki grabs his scimitar and slashes me, sending me into a building. I groan from the pain, and open my eyes fast enough to see Toshiki attempt to stab me. I quickly move away, and manage to get him stuck, I take aim, and shoot at his head. He ditches the sword and flys off, pulling out his guns again. I shoot more and more arrows, trying not to hurt him too bad. Just enough to get him to his senses. I shoot more, but he dodges my arrows. I guess a gun would be more efficient to use, since bullets move faster than arrows, but it's my brother's bow. I can't let him down! "Snap out of it, you idiot!!" I scream at him, and shoot him in the head. He falls down to the ground, and changes back to normal. I fly down quickly, and grab him. I check his vital sources, and learn I didn't kill him. I sigh, and go back to my Basilicom. I place him on a bed, and exit the room. "Is he okay?" Kon asked me. "Yeah. I may have gone too far though." I say. "I see." She says. An awkward silence fills the room, until I walk over to the balcony. "Are you going to fight Zoa?" Kon asked. "Yeah. I am. Oh, and Kon." I say, and turn around with a smile. "I love you." I say, and transform, flying off to Tari. I couldn't hear what Kon said after that. But I was along the lines of "I l-." I couldn't hear what came after that.
