HEROES
Chapter 11
Searching for the Power
Part 3
“Chiyuuu!! Chiyuu yuuu!!”
(They can’t hold any longer. They’re not ready for this. If we don’t release them, they will die)
Tomo takes a sip of tea, “They won’t get new power if they can’t past the test. I believe in them, let’s wait more longer”
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inside the hole is another dimension that reflects something deep in their heart and something they fear the most either something they treasure the most…Mayu POVThis place is completely hell. Everything is dark and seems limitless. Jurina, where are you?“JURINA!”
I scream his name over and over again but there’s no answer. Suddenly, I heard a cry… I saw a kid crying there. She has two long black ponytails. In front of her, two figures appear lying there lifeless. This scene seems so familiar to me. I approached that girl to comfort her, just when I reached my hand to her, my hand become transparent and went through her body.
“Come here, don’t be afraid. I’ll take care of you” a black figure appeared.
Don’t tell me that little girl is…I saw the figure walk closer… I saw her face… she is the black queen. She approached that little girl and held that girl in her arms. That girl turned to see her parents for the last time. I saw that girl’s face… that girl is… me… I remember how the queen adopted me and raises me to become a killer, a spy and it feels like I have become her puppet.
All the things become blurred and spinning, another scene appears around me. I saw my other self is killing and torturing rabbits. I saw her smiling wickedly as she examine the blood which comes out from the rabbit’s body. I can’t believe it. This is not me… that is not me… my head hurts, hurts so much.
“Don’t lie to yourself. That is you, the same as you here” the queen appeared behind me.
“Mother… I…”
The queen brings me some rabbit, white rabbit and a squirrel, “Can you show me how to give this little thing a small surgery? Let’s take the rabbit’s head and put on squirrel’s body?”
“Mother, I… I can’t”
My body stars trembling. I am afraid… I am fear when I stand close to her. I can feel her cold, strong hand grabs my arm. She grabs on me so tight that I can feel my bone will broken. I don’t want to do it, I don’t want to kill but I can’t refuse her. She adopted me and raised me… I must repay her… I must do anything she told me to…
“DO IT!” she commands me to do killing again.
I am forcefully holding the rabbit in my left hand and a dagger is ready in right hand…
“DO IT!!”
“Don’t!! Mayu, don’t kill them!”
I heard Jurina’s voice. I saw 7 years old Jurina is approaching me to stop me from killing the animals. The black queen stops him to come near me. She grabs his neck and lifts him up from the ground.
“Mother, don’t! Don’t kill him. I beg you”
“Do it!” she commands.
“No, Mayu-chan… don’t…”
I saw Jurina painful face then I look at the rabbit in my hand. “I’m sorry…”
Mayu POV End=========== =========== ===========
“Chiyuuu!!!” Chiyu is worried about Mayu.
(She will die if she kills the rabbit!!)
Tomo just sits on his chair, tighten his hold on the cup.
=========== ========== ===========
-----------------------
At the other side
Atsuko POV“Minami!!”
I saw Minami is fighting with King Matsui. I run and run toward them, but the distance between us seems further and further. Minami becomes weaken and now falling on the ground. King Matsui holds his sword up high and ready to slay Minami. Somehow, this scene is familiar with the incident in City of Iimiram. I remember how my left arm was cut off… my legs stop running, I can’t move my body… I am trembling to see the sword, the blood, and the dark aura surrounds the king. If I use my right arm to shield Minami, I will lose two arms…
“Useless…” I heard my father’s voice echoing inside my head.
“Useless…” my mother’s voice too.
Useless… useless… useless… That word keeps repeating inside my head, it feels like my head gonna broke apart.
“Acchan…”
I heard Minami is calling my name. I saw her weak body lay on the ground, she is looking at me for help. I can’t stand to see her being hurt. Even if I will lose my life, I will protect her till the end. Without thinking too much again, I run toward her to prevent the sword getting her.
========= ========= =========
“CHIYUUUU!!! Chiyuu chiyu yuuu!” Chiyu is jumping beside Tomo.
(NO! if he use himself to shield the sword, he will die inside!)
Tomo’s cup is broken in his hand because he holds the cup so tightly.
“Chiyuuuu! Chiyuu chiyuuuu yuuyu chiyuu yuu!”
(Haruna, Yuko, Minami, Kuu, Mariko, Jurina… all in danger!)
Suddenly a hole opened up on the wall, Sae and Yuki comes out from it hand in hand.
“How did you get out together?” Tomo seems a bit surprised at them.
“I am a vampire, those illusions have no effect on me” Yuki smirks at them. She then look at Sae and rub his cheek with another hand. “I saw Sae is crying inside there like a child, so I get him out”
Sae pouted at Yuki, “Mou, didn’t I told you to keep it as a secret!”
“It’s okay, You look really cute when you’re crying like that” Yuki gives a playful wink at him.
“Those illusions are true or just a random illusion?” asked Sae.
“Those illusions come out from your own memories. Half of it were true, it just want to give you a test… that’s all” Tomo explained. He saw Sae gave out a sigh of relief, he continue, “But, if you fall in the test… you will die for sure inside it”
“Seriously?!” Sae was shocked.
“Itai… itai… I-T-A-I-I !!!” they heard Kuu’s screaming.
It was Kuu and Mariko comes out from the same hole. Mariko is pinching Kuu’s ear hardly, almost break it apart. Kuu struggling against her and finally escape from the devil’s hand then he runs behind Sae for help.
“What happened again with you two?” Sae is pissed.
Mariko’s FlashbackI was running into that black hole and searching for my father. I saw my father at the edge of a ship and jumped off. Following my father’s step, I run to the top of the ship and was about to jump. Then I heard some annoying voices, that’s Kuu annoying voices. I turn back to see what happened and guess what? He is drinking and playing with some babes. Hot and sexy babes.
Seeing him like that makes me fire. Inside my head full of fire burning through my vein. I went to where Kuu is and pushed all the girls away from him. Suddenly all the girls and the ship disappeared, then a tiny light showed up. I pinched his ear and dragged him walk along the path and get out here.
Flashback End“Want me tell them that you are flirting with hot babes inside there?” Mariko mocked at him.
“What?! You’re having fun with girls in there?!” Sae shouted.
Yuki went behind Kuu and pushed him to Mariko, “I don’t like him”
Mariko pinched Kuu’s ear again without hold back her strength.
“Chiyuuuu chiyuyu yuchiiyuuuu chiyuu yuu chi chi cyuu yuuyu-”
“Stop! I don’t understand!!” Sae complained.
“He is lucky that Mariko saw him. If he steps into those girls’ trap and doing something nasty, he’ll turn into dust within seconds” Tomo translates, “Mariko is also lucky to meet Kuu. If you jumped down from the ship to chase your father, you’ll be dead instantly inside it”
“See, it’s me who saved your life. Get off your hands on me!” Kuu complained.
“If I don’t push those girls away from you, you already die inside!” Mariko shouted back.
“What’s up with you? You always being mad suddenly when I’m talking to other girls”
“…………………” Mariko became quiet and let go her hands.
“Hey, answer me!” Kuu stepped in front of Mariko to prevent her avoiding him.
Mariko grabbed Kuu’s shirt and pulled him close… close enough to lock their lips together. After a quick lips lock moment, Mariko pushed Kuu away, “This is my answer”
“Chiiiiiiyuuuuuuuuuuu~” Chiyu is cheering at them and Sae imitate what Chiyu said.
“Hey, what did you do to me?! This is not fair!” Kuu pouted and pulled Mariko for a kiss. She pushed Kuu away but Kuu holds her tight in his arms.
“Go get a room, you two!” Tomo closed his eyes with both hands and walked away.
“Chiyu~~” Chiyu moves her index finger then a wall appeared surrounds Kuu and Mariko, blocking those scenes.
=========== ========= =========
“WAAAAAAAA!” Haruna screams as he sliding out from the hole, falling down with his head dropped first on the ground.
“Welcome back, Haruna” Kuu greeted him with a big hug. “How are you doing there?”
Haruna gulp and shows a desperate expression, “It was scary inside…” he paused to take a breath then continue, “There’re many Yuko chasing me! Harassing me! They almost catch me! I keep running and saw a hole, I jumped into it and manage to get out. Look, my sleeves are worn out”
Hahahahaha…. They all laughing at Haruna.
BUUKKK Yuko fell on the ground with badly wounded. Haruna saw this and immediately went to her side, “Yuko, what happened inside?”
“Minami… she is fighting… danger…” Yuko passed out after saying that.
Haruna begin to feel worry, “Who hasn’t get out from there?”
“Jurina, Mayu, Atsuko, and Minami…” Sae answered.
“Let’s see who will be chosen by the dark crilyst~” Tomo gave them a smirk.
=========== ========= =========
Mayu POV“I’m sorry… mother…”
I threw the dagger in my hand toward the queen and stabbed it directly on her chest. She let go of Jurina and growled. Many dark clouds flowing out from her body, those clouds are now surrounding us. I immediately carried little Jurina in my arms and run away from her. But it’s too late… the dark clouds wrapped me. I can’t see, I can’t breath, I can’t feel anything…
Mayu POV End=========== ========= =========
Atsuko POV“Minami!” I stopped in front of her and stretch my only arm to shield the sword.
Don’t!! Atsuko, don’t! A voice whispered in my head.
A sudden push from behind makes me move forward and my hand launches a powerful blow of Nen toward King Matsui. I turned back to see a man glowing in bright with short golden hair floating in the air. Beside him, I saw my father…
“Father?” I can’t hold my tears and let them wet my face.
“A man doesn’t cry” he reached his hands and wipes my tears. He puts his hand on my shoulder and touches my sleeve. “Poor kid…”
“I’m sorry father, I’m useless”
“No, you are brave, my son”
“Your time is limit” the golden haired man said to my father.
“Okay, I’ll settle it in no time”
Atsuko POV End=========== ========= =========
“Arghh…” Minami comes out from the hole.
“Minami!” Yuko went to give her a big hug, “I’m so worried about you, anywhere hurt?”
“I’m fine, Yuko nee-chan. I met a golden haired man inside there, he helped me to wash out all the monster”
“Golden haired man?” Tomo surprised to hear what Minami said.
“Ugghh…” Mayu appeared next to Minami. “I finally get out of that place” her face scratched a bit but still bleeding.
“Chiyu~” Chiyu went to hold Mayu and guide her to the chair while Yuko helps Minami.
BUUKK (another person fell down from the hole)
“Acchan!” Minami runs toward him and give him a big bear hug, but she feels something different. She steps back and saw something glowing behind the cape. Atsuko got a new cape and it is covered from half of his left side. Minami brave herself to open the cape and found water like thing forms an arm, a blue glowing arm.
Atsuko rubs his neck with right arm, “I know I’m weird now”
“Chiyuuu~” Chiyu flies next to Atsuko and lands a kiss on his glowing arm. His arm slowly and slowly began to metaphor into man’s arm.
“Wow!” Atsuko surprised, “Thank you, Chiyu” he smiled and can’t hold himself to give Chiyu a hug and a kiss on her cheek.
Chiyu blushed and floating in the air, flying around Atsuko. Tomo got jealous and went to drag her away from Atsuko. Meanwhile, Minami is staring at him with deadly glare. She stepped on Atsuko’s foot hardly which makes him growled in pain. He holds his feet and jumping in front of Minami, then he gives Minami a wicked grin. With a flash movement, he pulled Minami into his arms and holds her tightly, “Minami~ I can hold you properly now~”
Minami is struggling to free from his embrace, but she can’t win against him, “A-Acchan, let me go. This is embarrassing” Minami said shyly.
“It’s okay, just pretending that they are nothing but air” Atsuko said naughtily.
“Chiyuu??”
“She said, do you want me to give you a private room just like Mariko and Kuu?” Tomo translated.
“Okay!” Atsuko nods rapidly.
“NO!” Minami shakes her head rapidly.
“Jurina…” Mayu interrupted. “Where is Jurina?” she becomes worry because she didn’t see Jurina here. The others becomes to feel worry too. It’s been a while since they go into the hole. Jurina is the first person to get in there but now he hasn’t come back yet.
// Jurina… // Mayu feels pain inside her heart, remembering the scenes where the queen almost killed him. She can’t imagine how will she live without Jurina.
GGGRROOOOOOOAAARRRR“Yahoooooooo~” Jurina comes out from the hole riding a dragon. “Look, what I got! A dragon!!” he yelled happily and flying around.
“He becomes a dragonite, huh?” Tomo smiled.
Jurina commanded the dragon to land on the surface then he jumped off and approached Mayu, “Mayu, that is cool. Wanna have a ride?” Jurina offers his hands to Mayu.
Mayu slapped Jurina’s hands away, “I’m not interested”
That sure gives Jurina a broken heart.
Suddenly, the bright room becomes dark. A purple crilyst appears floating in the air, floating in the center of them. Tomo steps forward and standing below the crilyst, Chiyu is following him. “The first condition to hold the dark crilyst is having dark aura”
“That will be Yuki, since she is a vampire” Sae guessed.
“Yes, it will be easier to defeat the queen if Yuki becomes the holder” Kuu added.
“The holder must have the same dark aura from queen of underworld, she has to be somehow related with her power…” Tomo continued.
The dark crilyst glowing brightly and moves to where Mayu is. Mayu stretches her hand to touch the crilyst and it fall on Mayu’s hand gently. A dark magic circle appeared under her feet. Mayu growled as she feels the power of the crilyst runs inside her body.
“Congrats to you… please use it well” Tomo is disappearing into the dark.
“Chiyuuuuuuu~~~” (sayonara) Chiyu is also disappearing into the dark.
Let me give you a ride, you can use that glowing circle to teleport into your human land…The room becomes wild grassland. They’re on top of a mountain and their plane, persona is also landed there, crashed. There’s a glowing circle floating in the air, just a few feet in front of them.
“We made it?” Kuu said unbelief.
“We got the crilyst…” Haruna added.
“Let’s fight the queen!” Atsuko said vigorously.
“YEAH!” all of them said in unison.
“Let’s get going to that circle one by one~” Yuko said.
They stand in line and jump into the circle on by one. First is Atsuko following by Minami, then Yuko, Haruna, Kuu, Sae, and Yuki. The next is Mayu and the last is Jurina with his dragon. Before Mayu went into the circle, she stabbed a needle on Jurina’s neck.
“Mayu…? Why–” Jurina fell unconscious on the ground.
“I’m sorry Jurina. I won’t let you die… I don’t want you to die there, everything will be okay when you awake…” Mayu landed a kiss on Jurina’s forehead then jumped into the circle.
*******************************************
What is Mayu doing?! Is she a friend or foe?
That golden haired man appeared twice to save Minami and Atsuko, who is he?
To be continue…….
