“That will be your fate, Demon Hunter” Jun hissed with a satisfied smirk. I didn’t take any notice. My mind remembered it was suppose to tell my body to move and I slowly crawled to him, numbness forgotten, pain pushed to the back of my mind. Only he mattered now. I used the last ounce of energy I had to roll him onto his back. He looked peaceful. I brushed the hair from his face as tears swelled. It wasn’t his place to be here. Kei hung her head and squeezed her eyes shut trying to stop her own tears from falling. Jono just hung his head and felt my pain.
“Why Tori?” I asked myself in a whisper “Why?” I heard the demons laughing, mocking. They made me sick, all demons did…The Demon Lord the most. This was all his fault. The I felt something in the pit of my soul, a bubbling feeling. All I could think about was The Demon Lord, how he killed my parents, how his lowlife minions did his dirty work and killed my brother. As me rage grew so did this new feeling. My whole body tingled and I was glowing red, my stone was glowing. I couldn’t understand what was going on. Kei and Jono looked up, the demons stopped their mocking and took a few steps back. Somehow I was on my knees, fists clenched, this tingling sensation growing, the red glow becoming brighter. Suddenly, I thrust my head up to the sky, a red beam of energy shot up out of my body and disappeared into the stars. The tingling sensation had become nothing, the bubbling in my soul has ceased and the red glow had disappeared. I watched the beam become nothing more than a red twinkle in the ocean of darkness above me. The demons and the twins had raised their heads to the sky and they returned their gaze to me. The demons smirked.
“We worried for nothing” Reiko laughed and lightly elbowed his partner in the arm.
“Yeah” Jun laughed as well “Hey Demon Hunter, what was that suppose to do?”
My eyes were still glued to the sky. I couldn’t answer her, I didn’t know myself, but that red twinkle was still there.
“Answer me!” She shouted impatiently. I pulled my eyes away and dropped my head to look at her. Then, as quickly as it shot up, the beam shot back down from the night sky and landed on top of the demons. If you blinked you would’ve missed it. The demons let out a bone rattling cry as the beam faded and they were gone, nothing more than ash. The chains on the twins disappeared and they rose from their seats then carefully looked at the pile off ash on the burnt grass. Five small balls of light rose up from the ash. I watched them rise up to a cloaked figure standing on top of the stadium lights. They held out a old, wrinkly hand and absorbed the five balls. The hand suddenly became young and smooth. I growled.
“Atuma!” I quickly got to my feet. A small ball of energy formed in my hands. I threw it at him and stumbled back as did, tripping over my own feet. I saw him step to the side before I felt the hard grassy surface on my back.
“Karu!” The twins yelled and dashed to my side, helping me sit up. I looked up to the lights. Atuma was gone. I closed my eyes in frustration and hung my head. Then something licked the tip of my nose.
“Kyo?” I opened my eyes and scooped up the little black kitten, holding him close. He purred and nuzzled my cheek, then looked to Tori. I gently placed him down and crawled over to my brother. I rested my head on his chest and grasped his shirt. The tears flowed freely. I had lost the only thing keeping me going through life, and I couldn’t bare it. I heard a light cough…and Tori’s chest moved slightly. I sat up.
“Tori?”
His eyes opened slowly. He turned his head to look at me and smiled. He slowly tried to sit up and succeeded with Jono’s help. I hugged him tight and cried again. He wrapped his arms around me and rested his chin on my head.
“I thought I’d lost you” I sobbed into his shirt.
He chuckled slightly “I’m not going anywhere yet” He held me a bit tighter. Jono draped his arms over Kei’s shoulders and pulled her into a hug. She leant against him and they smiled.
I don’t know how long I was crying for but I eventually dozed off. But as I fell into my slumber, I knew it wasn’t the end. Not yet…
