Fairy Hunter (chance): Chapter 11

Clink!Clank!Booom! the sound of things clinking and clanking shook June awake. June rub her eyes and clean herself before she heads towards the sound source. 'Hey what are you....', In the center of the kitchen Ash slump with huge dough on top of his head, he is covered with flour from head to toe and he have egg yolks for eyes. Ash nervously laugh, 'It's just some mess'.

By some he means a burned sink, half broken counter top, a holed cabinet and a dripping lava from the fridge. You don't want to know where he gets the freaking lava. 'Need some help?'. June help him up, she wipe the egg yolk form his face. Ash groan, he never thought that baking could be such disaster. 

'I just want to bake some cake for Zeirra. She seems so down'. June chuckle, Ash is such a sweat heart. 'I'll help, I don't want you to get blame for all this destruction.' She pluck her fingers, Ash turn wide as everything went back to normal. 'Now, where is the cook book'.

'Hmph! I don't need a freaking cook book to bake. I can bake by myself',he says all high and mighty. June snort, pride much. 'Yeah, by that you mean the total destruction of the kitchen'.

'That was out of hand for a while!', he flail his arms to make his point. 'Yeah, for awhile'. 

'Bring the effin' book already!', she hiss. Ash shudder, he don't want to be on June's dark side. Scratch that, boys you don't want to be on any girls bad side. Be good 'kay! Like a wind he grab the book which he accidentally smother with sugar and milk. 'Here', June gag, 'Thank you', she choked.

'Hey, where  is everybody?'.

'Don't you know? They went underground to investigate the gate.'

'O!'.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Metal face, are we there yet?'. Ray grunt for the fifth time. They somehow lost inside the tunnel when Zeille suggest a short cut.

Zeille slam their fore head together 'Shut it Wet! We'll get there when I say so!'. Zeirra step behind them, she bang their head downwards hitting the hard rough earth. 'Zeille,you bring us into this mess, then bring us out!', she hiss. Zeille gulp, he push aside the sword from his throat. 'Yeah, this way'.

'Hey, are sure it's safe to go that way?', Velery squeak,

'Yeah why?'. 

'Nothing just asking'. Weird creepy noises, can be heard the minute they step in. Velery shudder when a red eye blink at her, then one after another a red eyed creature starts to pop up. 'Hey Zeille! Are you sure this is the right path?!', she half scream.

Zeille scoff, 'Yea, of course!'. Velery tug his shirt hard 'I don't know, may be because of that!', the points the cave entrance. A large black widow spider hiss at them. 'Down!', Zeille push Velery down when the spider spit acid. Velery blushed, Zeille snap her from her trance. 'Sit here'. he push Velery inside on of the crack in the wall.

'But I-', Velery squeak, Zeille grasp on her tighten. 'I couldn't afford to lose someone important to me ever again!', he half shouted. Velery feel her face flushed at the moment. 'So please, stay still'.

'O-Okay',she stutters.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
June flutter each page, she need to find a recipe that's simple but delicious at the same time. 'Aha!', she thumb the ingredients.

                                                     NESTUM CAKE

                            : 200 GRAM CASTOR SUGAR

                            : 3 SPOON FEED OF SYRUP

'Did you get all the ingredients Ash?'.

'Yes, umm, can you please help me here', June turn around. Her mouth hang open, 'What are you thinking!', she pull his feet. Unfortunately, Ash is stuck inside one of the under cabinets. At the third attempt she manage to free him. Regrettably, Ash hands her the milk. Ash peer over her shoulder, 

'June can we add some wasabi sauce?'.

'Ash... are you trying to kill people?'. Ash pout, he mumbles about how food taste better with spicy seasoning. June rub her temple, she wonder why her friends didn't wake her up. 'Ash dear, can you please crack the egg'. Reluctantly, Ash grab the egg, hmm.... how should I crack an egg?. Like this maybe. He slammed his fist together with the egg in the center. Splat! June frantically turn around, a heavy sigh escape her mouth.

Ash smile, his hand is covered with eggs so does the rest of the counter top he is working with. June pick a damp clothe, she all the mess away. 'Here let me show you how to do it'. She grab an egg, June gesture Ash to hold it. With her hands around his big calloused palms, she teaches him how to be gentle and loving.

'There, isn't that better? Sometimes you need to be gentle'. June wipe her hands and continues where she left off. 'Now... I need to mix the castor sugar with the butter. Mix them well until they are fluffy', June stir and stir and stir......

After a few minutes....

'ASH!'.

'What the-! Girl! don't scream man. I'm bathing'. June close her eyes, a red hue creep on her face. Her uneven breathing turn harder as Ash step closer. 'So, what all the commotion 'bout?'. He said while scrubbing the excess soap on his torso. 'Could you at least put on a towel!', she half whisper.

'Oh shoot! Sorry', he mumbled. The next minute he came in with a towel. 'What the! Are you some kind of exhibitionist or something?!!'. Ash scoff, 'Hey! you ask me to wear towel. So I wear towel', he debate. June girt her teeth, oh god... 'You know what just forget it. Can you please stir this until it's fluffy'.

'Sure', Ash spin it massive time. The white liquid flung from the bowl splatting to the walls. June groaned, the kitchen are messier that the first time. 'Ash you teddy! quit it!', June hold his hands to stop him;instead she got flung through the counter into the oven. June help herself up, burning anger emits from her eyes.

'Oh it's on!', she crack her knuckles and send a wave of winter through the room. 'Idiot it's cold!', unfortunately Ash ignites his fist, he raise the temperature. Sweats start to pour out, she feel like melting, LITERALLY!. 'You dimwit! Don't raise the temperature!'. She half shout. Ash jump to his feet, his face glitters with happiness. June gulp, she got a feeling this isn't going to be good.

'My pleasure! Raiser!', June slump, she don't know whether Ash plying trick or he is purely deaf but he tick her off, big time. She grab the nearest weapon, half chopped onion. 'Eat this Ash!', one throw was all she need. Ash cringe in pain 'My eyes! My eyes! Oh my freaking eyes!', he crashed into the sink then the soup and lastly the remaining dough inside the bowl.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Velery yawn, 'How long have I been asleep?'. Velery outstretch her arms, she jump. Well, tried to. 'Wait! I'm stuck! I'm stuck!', she call for help for like eternity. A blue slippery liquid trickles down her fore arm. Luckily, the liquid help her arm escape. Desperately, she mud herself with the unknown substances.

'Ah! I'm free.' Just to kill time Velery wanders around the place Zeille stuff her into. unbeknownst to her, the hairy widow is spying for meat. A fresh one in fact. 'Milady, You just eaten a pack of them, must you eat more?', a fly bowed.

'Ahaha, Fliery there an old saying 'Eat till you poop and eat again'', she merrily answer. Fliery sweat dropped 'There's no such word.... you know what just do what you want'.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Both Ash and June sulk in a corner. For two different reasons. 'It's your fault now the cake have your face imprinted in it', June whine. She hoped the cake would be perfect.

'That's okay, we have my beautiful face it in!', Ash laugh. He start doing pose as if someone is taking his picture. Irritated, June kick his back making him slammed into the door.

'That hurt!', Ash engulfed his body in flame.

'I told you not to piss me off! Now you have done it', the temperature rise and plummet drastically. 'Froze: Snow!'.

'Burn; Erosion!'. Two massive powers collide hurting both mages in the process. Ash is a solid man statue meanwhile June is an over burn gingerbread. 'What the hell happened here!',Sara shouted. She and Kira both have a bad intuition this morning.

'You abusive attitude have rub into your descendant Kira! Manage him well please!'.

Kira jerk her head, fuming with anger she bark 'Oh now we are pointing fingers! Hello...... half the kitchen are frozen. Clearly your descendant have piss off my cute ones! You need to control her not me!'.

Veins popped out around Sara's body, she grit her teeth 'Now we are pointing fingers?', she barely hiss. She sounds so dark Ash shivers even though he is frozen.

'Hmph! Let's settle this in the arena! I'll show you! You are barking at the wrong beautiful tree!'. June sweat dropped, she nervously laugh.She hates it when someone bickers because of her. She eyes Ash for help. Ash in the other hand seems amused by the up coming fight. June start to wonder, why didn't he thaw himself up? And what a strong fire resistance his towel are.

'It's on then!', Sara drag June towards the changing room. June shudder, she never wished to be in one of this silly fights! Heck, she hates fights.

'Come on Ash we need to get ready', Kira wrap a rope around his sculpture. 'You are too heavy, I'll cut your diet on meat'. Inside Ash weeps uncontrollably.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Sara, are you sure we need to wear this', June is a bit perplexed when Sara starts to grab random clothes. June is wearing a white polar bear costume with 'I'M THE CUTEST BEAR' word imprinted in the center.

Sara wave her wooden sword around, 'I have decided we will be cos playing. Who have the most awesome and cute costume wins'. Sara wears the same exact coat as Monkey de Luffy from One piece. She got every detail right from his scars to his attitude. Sara seems too hyped into this fight.

Meanwhile for Ash......  

'Cool! I got to wear this clothing. Ea.... what is this?', Ash raise the black coat like a dope. Kira slap herself, how could she forgot. Her descendant is a fool when it's come to creativity. 'That is one of a kind shirt from the best mage in the world. In my opinion at least'.

Ash eyes the coat again, It is pretty unique how the clothe were made especially the scarf. 'You need to stop watching all those freak shows', he commented. He threw the clothe and plans to exited the room until Kira's staff landed right in front of him.

'Put on the damn clothe', she scowl.

Ash gulps, he feel slightly intimidated, he tries to leave again until Kira place a bargain he can't forget. 'So how is it? A deal or not?'. With hesitation Ash grab Kira's outstretch hand. 'Put on the clothe!', she slams it square into his face.

'I'm fine the way I am thank you!', he dump the clothe again. Kira froze, she grab his hair harshly 'You can't go out there butt-naked you idiot!', she scream so loud Ash thinks he really is deaf for the time being. Kira's eyes glister with predator hunger, she pounce on Ash and struggles to put the clothes on his body.

'There, now you are Natsu Dragneel', she cheered. 'Just act the way you are, the dense,idiot,reckless, bufoon-'.

'I get it!, no need for details'. Ash sigh, he sulks as he waits for his ancestor to finish dressing. After awhile, she exited the room. 'What are you wearing?'. Kira bounce up and down in glee, she clap her hand.

'Can't you tell?', Ash mouthed a no. 'Well, you will find out soon enough. Come on, we are up'. The sounds of bell ringing fill the room. From what he know, Zeimmi (Got drag by Sara), Metal (will die if didn't participate) and Magnet (bored) as judges. He smile, Zeimmi didn't seem so uptight anymore but his stoic attitude is still there.

Ash and Kira step into some kind of railway for fashion show. Ash gulps, he's not a fan for paparazzi and cheering crowds. 'Kira, why is there so many people here?'. He starting to get the stage fright, deal or no deal he didn't sign up for this. Ash want to bail until a warm hand hold his.

'Ash are you okay?'. June eyes him with worry. Ash is stun for a moment, he got to admit, June does look extremely cute in a bear suit.

'I'm okay! No worries!', he chuckle  nervously. Just like a book, she can read him perfectly well. 'It's okay, you just need to be calm and act normal.' The butterflies in his stomach subside a little. But it turns into a tornado when Kira bounce up to them announcing that they are the first pair. Ash hold his chest every time Kira speaks nonstop about the benefits of going first. For him it's a complete natural disaster.

'You'll be okay. Just act natural', June tip toe, she kiss his cheeks and carcass his hand. Ash blush, June presence somehow comfort him.

'PLEASE ENTER THE FIRST PAIR!', Ash let out a big sigh, June squeeze his hand one last time and mutters some encouraging words to his ears. From the corner Sara watch closely at how the scene plays out. 'The change of the story buds this, The forbidden love'. The sword in her hand incinerate into ash when June kiss Ash's cheek.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Mirai, we have some problem', Max tap the tree. Mirai jump from the top branch. 'Hmmm, what ever is the matter?', he ask with serenity.

'We need to return. They attack the mall in rose choc. I heard they use it as a portal to the netherworld. Fairy Killer have start their first move'.

'Is that so?',he sway back and forth. 'Why isn't the guardian alarmed about this?'. Mirai tap his chin.

Max scoff, to him the answer is so obvious. 'They wouldn't care if the world is ending. Come on, we got a new mission'.

'You boys wants to head out already?'. Max and Mirai stiffen, they didn't expect to see her at this kind of place.

'Can I follow you?', she plays with a dagger in her hand. The boys didn't have a choice but to agree.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After the first competition Sara and Kira's teams ended up with a tie. Unfortunately, the next competition is dancing. 'Argh! No! No! I can't dance.  Yesterday nightmare isn't completely erase!Oh the horror! The tights!', Ash suck his thumb while rolling like a baby on the floor.

'Metal, Magnet and I decided too.....', his voice trail off probably by the scene he sees. Zeimmi clears his throat, 'The next competitors are June and Ash. It seems like the other two judge wants to see humans dancing'.

'We will be grading by appearances, style and sync', Sara beamed, style is her thing. Kira groan, she like to wear T-shirt and sweatpants than to style herself let alone another person. 'Come on Ash, we are puffing you up', she grab his legs.

'Please spare me the horror!',he scream, surprisingly Ash got a real good grip on the floor. He manage to scar it. June gulps, she is pretty lucky that Sara isn't the hyped about clothing. Sara lead June into one of the most humongous wardrobe she had ever seen. Inside thousand of dresses is on display. Sara chuckle, would it be a surprise if she ever said that most of the dresses is hers?.

'June you prefer a baby blue dress and not revealing right?', June blushed, Sara knows every single of her fibers perfectly well.

'Here how about this?', June didn't get the chance to reply when Sara push her into one of the changing room. After awhile she step out, Sara gasp. June looks totally breath taking, did she mention that June have a silver lining trailing her body and glitters surround her.

'Do I look good?', she fondly rub the hem of her dress.

'Are you kidding! You look exactly stunning!', June wears a sleeveless dress with a black buckle belt. She have frills going down kissing the floor. The top color is light shade of blue and darker along the dress. She wears a finger less glove that reach her wrist.

'Come, let me do your hair', it takes Sara awhile to come up with the best hairstyle. She makes half up half down braids, the upper up is flower braid meanwhile the rest of her hair are let loose. She use her fingers to make June side bangs go a little bit curly. She push aside June's bangs and clip it with a diamond studded hair clip. Sara only apply a slight make up for June. Both of them agree on having June to wear a glass slippers.

Meanwhile for Ash....

'Would you stop running away!'. It took Kira half an hour to put his black pants. Another ten minute to put his shirt now she only need to put on the jacket. 'That is it!', she whistle, a metal snake slither into the room and coils itself around Ash. 'I don't want to dance! Come on Kira you understand don't you?'.

'No, I don't. I just want you to dance with this. After that you'll get your bounty'. Ash sigh, he keep reminding himself about the bounty but seriously, he doesn't want to dress up. 'There. Hmm you are pretty handsome', Kira unbutton his collar and straighten his black jacket.

'Come on, your girlfriend is waiting'',Ash blush, he flail his hand senseless while making a point that her assumption is wrong. 'What ever', she mumbles before pushing him into the dancing rink. From the other side June step slowly, Ash could hardly stop himself from drooling. June have become a light he shall never forget.

'Shall we dance?', June giggle, she hold his hand as they waltz around the rink. The song Blue Alley booms through the speaker. Nevertheless, the pair seems to be absorb into a world where only both of them existed. 'I never thought you can look so handsome'.

'Did you feel that?'. Ash pull her closer, he wrap his arm around her body in a protective way. Right on his cue, a giant black widow spider crashes through their rink. 'We can never get a break now can we?', June smile as she froze the spider.

'We are Fairy Hunter!We never have a break', he slash the frozen spider. With a smug on his face he catches June.

'June, Ash..what are you wearing?', Layla heads pop up from one of the spider guts. Ash let June go almost instantly. 'Argh! That hurts you idiot!', one by one their friends pop up from the spider intestine.

'What are you guys doing inside that thing?'. Ray scoff, he brush the blood from his shirt. 'Some dude leads us into the spider chamber. We got eaten by the queen'.

Ash laugh 'Wet pant got eaten! That means I'm way stronger!!!', Ash does a victory dance right on the spot. Ray want to strangle his friend but halt at the last minute. His mouth hang open, June sex appeal stunned every male in their gang.

'The winner for this game is Sara, June, Kira and Ash!', the commentator says. Both the teen jump in glee.

'Mou... I thought I can win this time', Kira pout. A warm hand drape around her shoulder. Sara's face come to view, her face didn't have a scowl but a smile. 'Look there Kira... those kids, they have grown up. The ones that carries our legacy'.

Upon hearing her friends comment she herself can't help but smile. 'Keep walking youngsters. Keep walking towards the future'. Sara hold her friend tighter. 'Those humans have shown us something. I guess a gift will do?'.

Sara slammed her staff, the pressure in the arena especially the rink lessen by the minute. They start floating in the air laughing their heads off. 'Hey! who smells like spider poop?', The moment were ruin from a single question. The arena is in smithereens.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Hmm, so that's how the fight broke out'. The gangs currently having a get together in the library. 'Oh that's remind me. June can I bring the cake in?'. June eyes brow twitch, she rack her brain for an answer. Then it dawn on her, 'Wait don't-', too late Ash already run to get the so call cake of theirs.

In mere minutes Ash bring in the cake, June start sweating. She peer over his shoulder. A boulder just fell on her when she sees it. The cake look absolutely amazing! Ash's face print somehow disappears. After he present the cake June push him over to a corner.

'How did our cake become so beautiful?', she whisper.

'That's not our cake.. I bought it from the bakery'.

'Oh', was all she could say, but she did hope the cake was theirs.

'By the way, I add some spice to it', Ash smirk.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'You serious?', Ray slammed his fork into the cake.

'Yeah, it seems Ash and June made it', Layla shrug. She is quiet shock to know Ash can bake especially this good.

'Don't complain. Just eat', One bite was all she need to throw a rampage. The rest of them eyes the cake. The supper hot wasabi sauce drip from the center of the cake. The rest of their friends push the plate aside.

'I know ash for brains can't bake', Ray smirk, he gets a front row seat to his friends death.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'You did what!!!',flabbergasted June drag him out of the room before Zeirra can sniff them out.

'Ash!!! June!!!!'. The monster is right on their trail. With her most super speed armor she chases them down the mountain.

'Why me????', June scream on top of her lungs.
