Lightning

The Strikers

[Lightning]

     I looked at everyone who was here. I really just need me and Keyshia, but with the power I felt from Maru and Ozan. I guess the more the better. I still don't trust Tokine, and I don't know anything about Inyu. I woke up on Tokine's back before we got to this cave. I don't know how Maru did it but I was certain I died, right after my nose was bleeding I saw him rush towards me and stab me in the heart with a knife. After which my head blew up into a million pieces. I knew I was dead. So how am I in one piece. Ky was out as well when I came to, Inyu was carrying her and Thunder's lifeless body.  The vamp-something magic he was talking about must work similar to my Execution Eyes with the enhanced speed and strength. Ky is up now, and everyone is gather around a fire.

"Before anything, Welcome to The Strikers kid." Tokine told to Inyu.

"Didn't I tell you no." I said annoyed.

"I don't see you coming up with a better name, and let's face it even if you don't want, I think we're going have to form a little temporary group, according to your big bad brother turned martyr, we got to get this Ninja A guy and we got to meet up with this Kimmy girl."  Tokine said she did make sense. Keyshia made a face at the mention of Kimmy. There's some history there, huge history.

"I don't even trust Thunder." I said.

"Trust him or not, you're running out of options. Nazo is coming for you because you possessed some power he wants. " Inyu spoke

"What do you mean?" Ky asked

"My entire village on Omega Earth was eradicated by Nazo 11 years ago, he was looking for you." He scratched his head "From what I understood he was not of my world, he must have gotten sent there by you or the demon inside you. I ran into him after you destroyed the school, I took him on and he defeated me then pinned me to a tree with his sword using a light magic spell which prevents all non light affinity from touching it by burning those who do, while causing intense pain and ripping through the skin of anyone with a dark affinity" I looked at Keyshia and Tokine. Keyshia was able to pull it out, My hand bled but pain? I'm normally immune since Maru has put me through the ringer in his experiments but I did feel a slight pain touching it, Tokine only said it burns her hand but it never bled.

"I pulled it out" Keyshia said

"You're the first person with a light affinity in a century." He looked at me "Tokine told me your hand bled that means you own the dark affinity. Which explains why Nazo wants you." He added

"What do you mean?" I asked

"The last person to exist with the dark affinity was named Endras Xavier." He said. I know that name... he was this ruthless dictator that existed about five thousand years ago, he performed many miracles in the world but eventually Imprisoned everyone and was about to bring the end of time because... he was bored. Nightstar, who was a fallen angel and Lucifer's first son who was banished from heaven teamed with Starnight who was Jesus first daughter and an angel sent to keep Nightstar in check and make sure he doesn't destroy the universe. After a long battle Nightstar and Starnight defeated Endras after Nightstar sacrificed himself to kill Endras, ending the line of those with the Dark Affinity.

"Those with dark affinity are prone to causing chaos and destruction out of boredom, they are also born with incredible chi and powers, maybe Nazo wants that for himself." Keyshia said.

"He'll have to kill me if he wants it" I grinned. "Speaking of kill let's talk about how are we going to kill Kip Poe and convince his brother to join us."

"Lightning, Thunder is dead, you don't have to kill the rest of them. " Keyshia said

"I have a reputation to uphold." I said.

"I have an idea!" Tokine yelled out.

"Speak it." I said

"Why don't you train us on our way to Mountain Revelation it's a four day walk from here we can camp out an hour earlier and train before we rest." She told me. "Both you and Keyshia"

"Eh, come again?" I asked

"You been fighting all your life Lightning, that makes you faster and stronger and more skilled than the average adult. Keyshia's been with you so I know she has had to pick up some neat skills too. You can both train us in the art of close combat and magic." Tokine said

"I also have abilities that you can't gain" I said

"Don't teach us based on your Genetic Genocide. Teach us based on your experiences" Tokine said

"Let's give it a shot Lightning" Keyshia said excitedly.

"Fuck me..." I sighed.

"I call dibs!" Tokine raised her hand. Keyshia shoved her.

"I don't need training, I'm a professional swordsmen" Inyu said.

"Too bad, you're stuck getting trained with the rest of the lot, I guess I'll help with fire and lightning magic, Keyshia can help with water and wind." I paused "I guess we can help each other out too with what we already know" I said

"I'm good with earth style" Tokine clapped her hands and a chair made with the materials on the ground formed under her. "And one for the prince" she clapped her hands again and I'm sitting in a chair made of earth.

"Magic is not in my arsenal. I have demon abilities. They are typically exclusive to me. I can see if I have something that can be passed on." Inyu said

"He's useless, I'm killing him." I stood up. Tokine jumped on me and we both fell back on the chair with her on my lap.

"He's your comrade so no killing him, okay tiger?" Tokine said and I groaned, Keyshia made a face.

"Useless but I'm the only one here who knows more about Nazo then any one of you lots." Inyu said mocking my attitude.

"Really? Let me guess, he kicked your ass, you saw his face clear as day but for some reason you can't seem to remember how he looks." I said sarcastically

"Wait. You're right, how'd you know?" Inyu said scratching his head "All I can remember is a dark silhouette... why?" Inyu said

"It's what Nazo does Kidd. He fucks you up, then fucks with your head, him and Maru are no different from each other." I sighed the glanced at my lifeless brother Thunder. "Should we give him a proper burial?"

"Don't you have to eat his eyes first?" Tokine said she wrapped her arms around my neck and rested her head on my chest and yawned. "Can we all get some rest first before we start, I'm tired." Her voice trailed off.

"She really fell asleep?" I said and relaxed into the chair.

     Inyu stretched and then laid back on the floor. "She's right, I'm also beat."

     Keyshia looked at me and shrugged then she sat on the chair that Tokine created on her side earlier and relaxed into it and fell asleep. Assholes.
