Akame ga Kill! - Killer of the East

Kill the Ice Queen!

Chelsea POV

It feels lonely at the camp we set up. I sit alone on a rock, thinking about when Najenda and Cyrus would get back. They'd been gone for a rather long time, I was starting to worry.

I get up and head back to camp. All I have to do is think of Cyrus's eyes and it's like he's right next to me. I see Lubbock stringing a guitar as I pass him.

"Watcha doing?" I asked, out of boredom.

Lubbock glances up, but continues to string to guitar. He seems so into it I started to feel as if I didn't want to bother him.

"I'm stringing a guitar... what's it look like?" He said.

I make a puffy face. "I meant why!"

He smiles. "I plan on playing for everyone soon, I think it'll lighten the mood." he said.

I nod, understanding what he's saying. We lost our home, again. And it seemed we're on a losing streak that I don't like. We might've won that surprise attack, but we still lost a part of our group.

I walked into the tent after waving goodbye to Lubbock, leaving him alone so he can concentrate. Inside, Kyler is skimming through some files, and Tatsumi is sleeping in one of the chairs, snoring.

I pass Kyler without him even noticing. He seemed so transfixed in the files, I think Cyrus told him to sort them out for him. Whenever someone else tells him to do something, he just half asses it, but whenever the orders from Cyrus, he does it perfectly.

I sit at the table next to Tatsumi and sigh, this place can get really quiet. Everyone's spirits are down, and it's bothering me. I sigh again, trying to get Kyler's attention to talk, but he still doesn't notice.

Suddenly, the flap to the tent flies open and Doya stands there, breathing heavily. Kyler looks up from his work and tilts his head. "what's the hurry?" He asked.

Lubbock came in after her, he looked intense.

"The town Boss and Cyrus went to..." he said.

Tatsumi woke up by now and listening, he opened one eye, still leaning back in his seat.

Lubbock grabbed his coat.

"It one fire! The whole damn Valley is on fire!" Lubbock yelled, running to our second Manta outside.

What has Cyrus gotten into this time?!?

Cyrus POV

I got myself into something I was going to regret.

Right when the fight started, the whole town was freezing and burning, switching every second as if two temperatures were battling for control. Which was actually was happening, me and Esdeathe stared deathly at each other, ice flew and me from all directions and fire covered every inch of the town.

I jump onto a crumbling building and dodge some icicles flying at me. Their speed was incredibly fast, but Esdeathe was faster, running after me at top speed. I covered my arms in flames and ran at her, throwing a punch, but she moved to the side and hit me with the Palm of her hand, right into me head.

I was sent flying into a building, the flames inside engulfed me. Outside, Esdeathe laughed with delight.

"You were talking big awhile ago, what happened to all that confidence?" She said.

I burst out of the building at alarming speed and knee her in the side, she coughed up, then she grabbed my leg, and elbowed it, sending a vibrating pain through it. I jump back, starting to pull out my sword, but she sends an icicle straight into me hand, stabbing my palm. I drop my sword, losing it as a building fell over it and I jumped out of the way.
