"We"re sorry," she continued.

"Why are you apologizing?" Eureka asked facing them.

"We vent on you our anger and pain," Feena answered.

"People when they"re hurt or mad would say things they didn"t really mean. If we get angry to the simplest things then there"d really be no peace in this chaotic world," Eureka replied returning her attention to the lake.

"You"re not mad at us?" Karen asked.

"Have you made your decision?"

Knowing what she means Karen and Feena looked at each other.

"We still have no idea," they replied truthfully.

"I suppose that"s normal, being left by someone you trusted to fight on your own would make you mad and hurt at the same time. But you"re lucky *looks at the lake before walking past them* you can still mend it with time. Come on, you still have your duties and I still have my workload, we should go back."

Even though they felt like her words have another meaning, they decided to not ask and follow her.

*****

A month pa.s.sed, with each of them still troubled by their own emotions.

"Finally done, who would have thought that three weeks workload would be over in a month," Eureka couldn"t help but sigh to herself.

She stood up and decided to have a walk before their training starts. Returning to their patrolling duty her subordinates are more attentive to their surrounding, it seems that they have learned from their first experience of being caught off guard.

She thought before she walked towards the place in the forest where she had been paying attention to for the past two months after the incident of their patrol happened.

She carefully walked and felt her surroundings, why would their presence be constantly on this side before it disappears?

"What are you doing here?" since all her attention is in the places where she felt those prensence, she was startled by the headknight"s voice behind her.

"That"s new, you being startled," the Yukimura commented as he walk towards her.

"I"m here for some patrolling sir headknight,"

"Hmmmm but this is outside your jurisdiction."

"Yes sir, I just felt something different from here so I decided to check."

"Inside? Disappear?"

Hearing her mutter, Yukimura looked at her, "What inside? What disappear?"

She abruptedly span around looking at the walls, "We have to go back!!"

Yukimura hearing the urgency in her voice started moving, "What"s wrong?"


Yet before Eureka could answer another voice was heard.

"You seemed to have found out something, now I can"t let you return can I?" a sudden wind burst came their way pus.h.i.+ng them back away from the walls.

"Who are you?" Yukimura asked as he stared at the man standing in front of him wearing a coat hiding his whole body.

"Asking won"t give us anything sir. For now we have to return inside the walls. There"s too many of them, the two of us is not enough," Eureka interrupted and pulled Yukimura to run.

"I am the headknight, I can"t runaway in a battle where the kingdom is in danger," Yukimura rejected.

"d.a.m.n IT!! WILL YOU LISTEN JUST ONCE SIR!! YOU ARE INDEED THE HEAD KNIGHT, THAT"S WHY YOU ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE OTHER KNIGHTS!! YOU CAN"T DIE HERE WHEN A BIGGER BATTLE IS WAITING!!!" losing her patience Eureka snapped pulling the headknight, who was completely stupefied, away from their opponents.

"Hah, what a coward," the man insulted as he started throwing more wind boomerangs.

The headknight didn"t argue any longer and started running as fast as he can, he glanced at Eureka.

"Sir!" he was suddenly pushed to the side when a vine suddenly appeared beside him.

Eureka tumbled forward.

"EUREKA!!"

"So they have stepped up their game already," Eureka said as she stood up.

"Are you okay?" Yukimura approached her.

Their conversation were short lived when more abilities come their way. They could only defend.

"We"re close, can you still keep up?" Yukimura asked seeing how disadvataged their position is.

"Their abilities are different sir, that vine is incorporated with poison, and it acts so fast."

"What the h.e.l.l are you muttering?" Yukimura asked as he burned another group of woods and vines. But was wounded by a water shot.

"I"m losing my capability to sense the aura around me, I"m turning completely blind sir."

Yukimura turned to her abruptedly hearing this, looking around he knows he only have one chance.

Without any further a do, he carried Eureka, concentrated all his energy in his hands and threw it towards the enemies behind them, this allowed him to be pushed back by the explosion that occured.

And that repulsion was enough for the two of them to crash in the kingdom walls breaking it.

Everyone was shocked seeing their headknight carrying Eureka, lying on the ground after cras.h.i.+ng in the wall.

"Si-Sir?" one knight approached them.

"All barrier ability knights use your best barriers and s.h.i.+elds to mend that wall, it shall be temporary while I call for the one creating the barrier around the kingdom, and spread the word that no one is allowed to leave the kingdom not until we say so," he commanded.

"Yes sir," they followed but was still curious as to why would the headknight be carrying Eureka.

"FFather?" Raven whose team is close by heard the news and run over. He was shocked to see his father sitting in the ground who seemed to still be catching his breath, and is still carrying Eureka an his arms.

"Raven, come here and help me carry this knight."

"WhWhat happened?" he asked as he took Eureka.

"Wait, sir can you still muster up at least a fifth of your energy?" Eureka asked.

"What do you think of me? I"m not weak."

"Then could you release a fire ball with just a fifth of your strength?"

Yukimura feeling that he is being looked down upon, conjured a fireball with a fifth of his strength.

"Raven do the same, atleast half of your power," Eureka said to Raven who"s currently carrying her princess style.

Baffled, the father and son still did what she asked.

"That"s more than enough Raven, when I give the signal, please direct those energy b.a.l.l.s to my wound."

"Are you?" Raven thought back to their graduation compet.i.tion and remembered the ability Feena and Hideyos.h.i.+ used and is still currently using.

Eureka stepped down and stood in between them.

"Just do it, everything"s almost gone. So do it at the count of three."

Seeing how Raven is not objecting Yukimura just followed her commands.

"One,"

They placed their hands on either side of her.

"Two,"

They placed it closer.

"Three,"

Pus.h.i.+ng their hands at the same time, instead of being burned, both their abilities disappeared but they can still feel the energy they"re pus.h.i.+ng through her wound.

Sweat started dripping on Raven and Yukimura"s faces waiting for Eureka to stop them.

"That"s enough," when she finally stopped them both of them seemed to lose their strength sitting down on the ground.

"Are you really courageous or just plainly have no care to what happens to you?" Yukimura asked.

"Raven let me borrow your fire," Eureka ignored his question and stretched her hand towards Raven.

"Eureka," Raven started standing up.

"I"m over here," he continued turning her around. He walked towards his father, who"s in front of Eureka, before collapsing on the ground. And Eureka whose capability to sense the aura around her have not yet returned, turned thinking that he was still behind her.

"Let me borrow your fire," she said covering up her mistake.

"What will you need it for?" he asked as he conjured a fireball.

"For this," taking Raven and Yukimura by surprise she suddenly placed his hand on her side where her wound is still profusely bleeding.

"Wh"

"Hey!!"

Gritting her teeth, she used Raven"s fire to burn her wound stopping the bleeding. After she did it, "JUST WHAT THE h.e.l.l IS GOING ON WITH YOUR MIND!!??!!" Raven shouted angrily.

"We no longer have enough time, I can"t go to the hospital yet. We have to speak with the king," she said as she started walking.

"Hey!" Eureka was startled when Raven suddenly carried her.

"Your walking on the wrong direction, you have a lot of explaininng to do," Raven said as he carried her tiwards the palace.

"You don"t seem that shock regarding her, have you noticed?" Yukimura asked.

"So this is what you were hiding after checking her innocence," Raven replied.

Eureka just quietly listened to them, she knows she couldn"t hide it for long. But why dies everything have to happen at the same time, he may not be asking now but she knows even Yukimura will question everything she said awhile ago and the ability she made them do.
