Fairy Hunter (Chance): Chapter 6

Drip, drop. The sounds that haunts her for life. Her tiny feet splashed against the muddy water. Breathing hard she kept on.

'Catch that murderer!', the villagers roared. 

'No!! Please leave me be! I didn't do it! I didn't do it!', she tried to reason with them but her words were like winds that flutters through without leaving a mark.

'Please!', the little girl begged yet again. Her eyes were numb from the constant weeping, she could hardly saw what was in front of her.

She tripped and fell face first into a puddle of mud. The rain constantly pours down. A sudden sensation of pain pierce her chest. Without warning her eyes turns dark. Her canines grew larger and sharper. Her nail grew longer. Tails starts to appear behind her.

Once again, she begged the villagers to leave her. Instead of listening they kick her, stomp her fragile body. Laugh at the pain she's bearing. Not a glance of  mercy was given.

Bitting her lips she warned them for the last time. 

'Hahaha! As if we will listen to you'. They continued laughing, forgetting about the transformation she's in.

'I told you to run. Now, let me taste your nasty blood', the girl lick her lips. Without warning one of her tail impaled a villager's throat. She sucks all the blood down leaving bones to rot.

She licks the drop of blood on her fingers, chuckling viciously she strikes one after another. Killing each and everyone of them mercilessly. The rain that night was stained with screams and blood. And that very night she gains her name 'Zeinna the blood thirst'.

Zeirra jerks herself form bed, hot sweats trickles down her temples. The nightmare she saw was a fragment of something.

She groan. The harder she tries to remember her pain increases. Forgetting what just happened, Zeirra push the covers and prepare herself for the upcoming trial.

She reluctantly walks towards the stairs. She hold on tight to the banister, as she feel a bit wobbly. At her last step a silhouette of a man caught her eyes. The same ones she feel at Layla's house.

She wants to trace the silhouette but her stomach growls so hard she makes a bee line for the dining room. Let just say the dining room is a chaos with plates, utensils and food flying around.

She didn't have to mood to scold those blockheads, for the first time she let them off the hook. Furthermore, one table mannered monster is enough. Every bit of the food feels like sand. Nothing, raise her appetite that morning. After a bite or two she excuse herself to the garden.

Taking a deep breath, Zeirra hoped to find serenity. The foliage of green trees should calm her petrified heart. She almost regain her calmness if a certain blockhead didn't butts in.

'Hey! What 'cha doing?', Zeirra frantically turns around. A good smile greet her. The boy swoop down from one of the branch and landed face first on the ground.

Zeirra shakes her head and sigh. 'Nothing of you business Ash'.

Ash rub his sore face 'It is my business. We are friends after all.'

Zeirra spare him a glance and stiffle a laugh ' Thanks for your concern but I wish to find out on my own if you may. I mean, you guys will just be in the way since you are a few level down from-'.

'Stop talking all this nonsense. You are afraid aren't you?'. Zeirra flinch, Ash hits the bulls eye on the first guess.

'How did you know?'.

'It's written all over your face. So is it a mistake in the past?'. Zeirra stare on the ground. After a moment of pause she shakes her head in dismay.

Clutching to herself she spits out a few of her sadness. 'Truth is, my memories seems to be jumble up with somebody else's. Sometimes, some of them aren't making any sense to me. I'm afraid that something bad might happen to you all since fifty percent of the memories are involved with blood.'

She tries her best to hold back the tears but it spills anyway. A soft fabric brushes over her eyes.

'Ya' know. We ain't that half bad. You should believe more in the people around you and yourself. We ain't some scrawny little maggots Zeirra. We have grown far stronger than you can imagine. If this what ever dreams are bugging ya' then put it aside. You got a trial to kick butt', Ash goofy grins makes her heart flutters.

His words sinks into her heart. Every one of them are true. In the end she finally manage to pull a smile 'Thanks. That is some mature stuff you pulled out.' A siren booms through the garden making both of the mages jump.

'I guess it's time huh?'. Ash gives her a reassuring smile. He put his hand behind his head 'Go kick that freak butt!', he cheered.

'Bye! Oh! One more thing. Ya' know, you may be more than just a brother to me'. Zeirra chuckle as she leave the bewildered boy alone to figure out her words.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'What 'cha doin' here squirt?'. Velery only reply with a gaze before burying her face in the book again.

'Hey I'm talking to ya'.

'I have no time to play around Zeille. There's some research I need to do. Furthermore, shouldn't you be in the chamber right now?'.

Zielle jerk the book right off her hand and smirk 'I can take that test anytime I want. It is too easy after all.' Velery pout, she punch the jerk on his face but he didn't budge. Not even a little.

'What 'cha reading ya' freak?', words so many makes his head spins.

'Hmph! A pea brain for you wouldn't understand literature.'

'That ain't some scrawny Lit book. It's ancient spells'.

'Wait you knew?'.

'Yeah! what do you expect me a dummy? the cover is written about it'. Velery eyes the metal dragon tamer with doubt. 

'Are you playing jokes on me?'.

'Why the hell would I play jokes? Can't you read it?'.

'How am I suppose to read a bunch of doodles'.

'Hey watch it! It ain't doodles it's a human dragon hand writing'. Velery curiosity gets the best of her, she creep closer and put her hand on his chest. 'Tell me all about them!'.

'If you want to know so bad, move away will ya'.

'Oh! sorry', a tint of red creeps to both of their faces. Velery move a bit giving the big man some space. Zeille put down the book.

'What do you wanna know?'. Velery tap her chin, she spent hours and hours to decode the writing but she met dead end. With Zeille by her side she might make some progress.

'Hello earth to squirt', Zeille pluck his fingers in front of her a few times before he receive a response.

Velery groan, she might have to stand hours working with the jerk by her side. ' I want to know what these means'. She brings out a picture of the tablets they found at the ruins of Floweria kingdom.

There was a few minutes of silence. Zeille sigh, he rub his head in a stressful manners before giving the girl a disappointed look.

'I can translate that thing if you brings it here.' Velery jump in surprise, what Zeille wish is hard to fulfill.

'What! Why? I thought you know how to read it.' She start to walk back and fro.

'I can read it but it isn't in the human dragon writing. It's in ancient minerals dragon writing. The only way to read it is to feel it'.

Velery looks at him in dismay. ' Can't you translate it without feeling it?'. Zeille is in a deep thought before he gives Velery a hope.

'I still need to feel it but you don't have to bring it here. Can you somehow copy the traces of the writing?'.

Velery excitedly smiles. She set off to work like the wind. In an hour the exact traces appear in front of Zeille. Taking a deep breath he read out loud what the tablet states.

Time descend upon things that goes around.

Turn the keys to where time are backwards.

Where old grows young, where death rise again.

Sacrifice three essences to fulfill this task. 

A fire
A Scarlet rose
A teardrop of water

Three essences that never shines. Three essences that were hold back by never ending tears.

These shall open the gate of sun, the gate to the spirit realm.

Zeille pulls out his hand. 'That is the only thing the tablet holds. The rest was destroyed.'

'Thanks. Now we know what to do'. Velery pull a book and start reading. Zeille grunt, doesn't she have anything better to do? He shakes his head at the thought. Again, he grab the book.

'Hey! Give that back!'. At her current height reaching the book seems like jumping beside a wall.

'You need to get some fresh air. That is good for your magic.' Velery stop jumping. Bangs covers her eyes. Zeille twitch. He didn't know he touch something sensitive.

'I can't use magic. Even when I'm a part of a magic guild, I was the only person that can't use magic'. Feeling sorry for the petite girl, Zeille listen to her constant mourning.

'Having magic on you isn't all that good you know. Sometimes it's turns out to be a curse.'

Velery still mourning, Zeille scratch the back of his neck. The sense of guilt rush through his veins.

'Do you know that in the past magic didn't exist.' Somehow that manages to gain the little girl attention.

'Really?'. Zeille nods in return.

'Before magic even existed humans live without magic. They fight without anything to assist them. Until one day a disease spreads through the whole world. At first it consume the hearts of many people. Pulling them into the darkest valley. But one heart manages to deflect it all. She lives amongst the nomand, a human without the disease.'

Zeille stop, he feel hurt to continue. 'What happened next?'. As much as he wants to stop the enthusiastic face is too much to handle.

'She sacrifices herself to absorb all the pain. For once the pain really did stop. Leaving the humans with amazing abilities such as now. The girl turns into a beautiful butterfly. She is the holder of all the source of pain. She is the WHITE FAIRY'.

Velery feels happy, she never know a jerk is all she need to cheer up. 'Thank you Zeille'.

Thank you Zeille an image of a girl with white hair shifted. A tear trickles down his face.

'Are you okay?'. Wiping the tears away, Zeille smile. No, thank you Melery. She will know soon enough.

Zeille haul the girl onto his shoulders. Stuttering she wished to be put down. 'You want to inform the rest about this don't you?'. Velery quiets down.

With a smirk, he sprints down towards the meeting room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Ah, you have come.' Zeirra looks around. The chamber for her test is deserted island. Kuroo sits on top of a stone with a Scarlet rose in his hand.

'The weather is a bit nostalgic isn't it?'.

'What do you mean?'. It starts to drizzle, Zeirra eyes turn wide. 'My oh my, isn't this the exact copy of the nightmare.' Zeirra flinched, the surrounding starts to spin. Stench of blood disperse through the air.

Zeirra try her hardest to control herself.

'It hurts to see it all coming back. But I love to see you tremble'. Kuroo blows the rose. The rose petals disperse and multiplies in an impressive manners.

'Gh!'. Zeirra guards with her hand. The rose petals not only hurt her it also making her vision limited.

Kuroo, eyes have a red star shaped pupils glowing with rage. The rest of his eyes are dark and hollow. 'Now, fall into my never ending magic NIGHTMARE REALITY!'.

Zeirra is slammed to a tree. Her clothes is torn and she is in a pretty bad condition but that didn't stop her from standing.

As the dust clears up, a figure greets her. 'No!'.
★******★**********************************************#########################

'I never thought he would use that for the girl.' Magnet seems to be amused by the show. The rest and the guardians will sit on the sidelines watching the chosen pair fight.

This was Zeimmi's idea to see whether the humans are worthy to receive the pearls or not.

'Using her fear against her. Truly monstrous'. Liam watch with a wide grin on his face. The statement he said was true. Kuroo doesn't kill his opponent with brute force. He simply poison them with their nightmares.

Ash grit his teeth, watching his friends being beat up wasn't his thing. Layla could see the agony in her partner's eyes.

She put her hand on top of Ash. Without looking at his face 'Let's believe in her'. Ash is stun, Layla look at him with a smile.

'Believe in Zeirra. We can't do anything but to support her. Let's watch the fight till the end. I guarantee Zeirra will win. Don't you?'.

Ash scoff, he's an idiot doubting Zierra's capability. 'You are right'.  Standing on top of his seats he screamed as loud as he can.

'Kick his ass! Don't you dare lose Zeirra'.
---------_--------------------------------------------------+++++++++++++++++-+-+-+-&-------------------+++++++

'I know', Zeirra wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth. The creature stare deep into her soul. It's tail slash through everything it touches. The red eyes. How can she forgot. That's how she is suppose to look.

Tightening her grip on the spears she change armor 'Execute! Winged robe! Release twin Rapiers!'. With the robe her speed increases.

'Target lock in. Multi dimension shots!'. Zeirra did manage to lock the target on the ground.

After the dust clears up thousands of fireballs fires at her. Swiftly, she change into a fire elemental armor. She have no choice but to go with brute force.

Zeirra quickly changes into her rock elemental armor. She summon a magma hammer. 'Attack! Volcano eruption!'. On the bright side she manges to hit the creature heads on but on the other side no scratch was made.

The creature asurbly grabs her feet, draging her through out the ground. She is slammed into the grounds several times.

Zeirra groan, her could feel her arm break. What is worse her magic is depleting by the minute.

'Have enough?'.

Even though she is staggering to get up, the smile never fades from her face. 'Like hell I'm giving up over a few scratches. My friends are waiting for me. I need to win this thing.' From beneath her feet a circle start to appear.

Just before her transformation could take place, a slinking vines grab hold of her.

'I guess you are the same as the others.' Kuroo pluck his fingers and an avalanche appear.

'On second thought. It might be better to keep you in nightmare mode.' Kuroo brought out another rose. 'Unleash! Infinite nightmare'.

Zeirra try to wiggle out but the rose petals suffocates her. Tiny black dots starts to appear in front of her. 'No, I can't lose. I just can't'.

That was Zeirra last words before she is completely devoured by the magic.

'Zeirra!'. Anger starts to take hold of Ash. Now he isn't the only one to be agitated by the guardians. He was about to burn down the whole arena if Layla wasn't there to hold him back.

'Ash, calm down. Until the bell rings we can only watch. Zeirra is much stronger than that. Come on, she's an elite mage. She is your sister'.

Ash gives out a long sigh. If it weren't for Layla's words he will totally go berserk.

Layla sigh, she sees what happened earlier between Ash and Zeirra, she couldn't help but feel neglected. After awhile the feelings disperse but now it come again. I wonder why I'm feeling like this?. 

She glance over the furious boy before returning to the fight. Mirai is at the edge of his seat as the battle progress through. The thought of Zeirra losing was never there in his mind.

'Go! Go! Zeirra!'.

Zeirra keep on struggling but it's futile. With the smokes sucking away her oxygen plus getting her all sleepy and stuff. That ain't gonna get her anyway near victory.

'Now, plunged into your worst nightmare human'.

Where am I? Why is it so dark?.

Zeirra falls deeper into the depths of darkness. She continues to fall until she hits something stone hard.

She flutters her eyes open only to be greet by a weak whimpering. She gulps, she knows very well where she is.

'Mom! Dad!'. Zeirra race upstairs towards her parents bedroom. She jerk the door open but her parents is nowhere to be seen.

A shrill cries caught her attention. She headed straight to the source. Breathing hard and trembling she opens the door to her bedroom.

Zeirra left the door ajar and the strong stench of blood pierce her nose. She could hear a soft cry from behind the door.

Zeirra fully opens the door, the sight of her parents corpses brings tears to her eyes.

In the center lies a girl with tail spurng out from her back. Zeirra steps closer, the girl seems not to realise her presence until she accidentally step on a toy.

The girl jerk her face up, with a tear stained face, she tries her best to defend herself.

'Please!go away before you are hurt', the girl meekly state.

'It's okay, I'll never leave you all alone'. The little girl takes a few step back. She try to unleash a few of her attacks but nothing seems to work.

Zeirra encase the girl in a reassuring hug. 'Everything is fine. Stop crying. I understand your pain.'

'You do?'. The little girl tighten the hug.

'Yes, listen you are a good kid. What you have done here is an accident. Run! There will be people that accepts you despite your mistakes.' 

In response the girl blow the wall to her room and jump out. 'Oh! Don't forget to learn form your mistakes! It's okay to fail and learn'.

It dawned on Zeirra, the answer to her problems. Bangs covers her eyes, 'I live in fear for far too long. It's time to change!'. 

A corrupted circle appear beneath her feet in the color of black with red linings. Black lightning shoots out, twirling the sky on top of her.

'Unleash! Battle deity Moon light princess armor!'.

The gang is shocked to see Zeirra fully devoured by the petals. When hope is lost a black blinding black light shoot through the cacoon, vaporizing everything to nothing. In the center Zeirra stood tall with her heir braided and pulls to one side. Her clothes changes into a gliterry dark blue dress with tiny silver Star decorating it.

The dress is the exact picture of the universe. With her eyes close she step forward. Kuroo smirk, now the show is starting to get spicy.

'I guess using pawns is a disadvantage so why don't I do the honor to kill you!', one thrust of his left leg he shots down towards Zeirra like a rocket. With just one arm our Zeirra neutralized the attack.

'I want to finish this quick.' Both of her hands intertwine. After, a long time she opens her eyes. Everyone gasp including the guardians. Her eyes are black with a golden moon and star engrave in the center.

'Unleash! Universe judgement!'.  Several type of universe appear out of nowhere. The universe shoots out all kinds of explosive before charging out for the greatest attack.

'Universes unite!' The universes gathers themselves around the girl. A giant combat sling gun appear strap on her shoulders.

'Go die!', a laser shoot out so big it holed the whole arena.

'Awesome power.' Kuroo wipe the blood off his chest. He looks unharmed and fine. As everyone thoguht he would continue with the merciless torture, he wiggle around. With all that he have left her give Zeirra a rose handle swords with a rose pearl embedded at the tip.

'This swords can unite with all kinds of armor. no exception. If you mastered how to use it, the ought to be more useful than you think.'

Zeirra wants to ask more questions but her teammates swarm her like a bee.

'Hmph! You just giving that girl a chance Kuroo'. Kuroo chuckle, 'even if I continue the result will still remains. I want her to exploit her powers.'

He looks at the laughing and blushing Zeirra. You have grown stronger zeinna.
