The Seven Swords

Chapter 12

The next morning I was confused about what happened with Saki and I it was like a bad

dream that played over and over in my head. Light and I where so tired from the night we pa.s.sed

out quickly. I looked to the left and saw Light laying on the floor next to me the room was a

decent size not to big but big enough for two of us to fit into. There were two small mattresses on

the floor that we seemed to find in the night, I turned and laid on my back and stared at the

ceiling wondering why I wanted to laugh and cry at the same time. I had to emite I felt so much

better not having my sword next to my side. Than I remembered I tried to kill Saki last night. I

told her I killed her father and I"d kill her the same way. At that moment I could feel my soul

sank inside my chest. I had to see if Saki had come back. I slowly got up off the floor trying not

to wake Light. little did I know he was already up.

"You won"t find her here." Light said in a cold tone

"W...what are you talking about I wasn"t looking for anyone I had to go to the bathroom

that"s all." I said as I looked to where Light slept with his back turned to me.

"I looked for her most of the night wherever she is she isn"t here." Light replied like he

knew I was lying

"Well, either way we should get ready for the fight this morning." I replied Light turned

to me when I said that and sat up

"We won"t be fighting today, four days from know we will be." he said as his gold eyes

shone in the light that came through the window

"What!!! four days, it can"t be that long we have Zodiac warriors to find." I said

" Junjie, It will be fine Saki should be back by then." he said as he looked up to me

I looked at him like I couldn"t wait to see Saki but I knew deep in my soul that I couldn"t

see her right away after what I did. Light got up and opened the door, he looked at me over his

shoulder.

"Let"s get this over with." he said with a sigh

we both walked down the stairs together we walked into the living room and saw the man

sitting at the table with his son. When he saw us he greeted us with a smile, The next thing I

knew he extended his hand out to us and said

"My name is Kei Tomi."

Light extended his arm and grabbed his arm and placed his hand into Kei"s and said

"My name is Light and this is Junjie Manchu."

"Nice to meet you Junjie and Light. By the way, is there a last name to that Light?"

"Not that anyone needs to know for right now." he said as he looked towards the boy

"Oh, so I see, my son"s name is Tomi Ty." he said as he looked towards his son

He"s son ran up to Light and grabbed his hand aggressively.


"h.e.l.lo, Light sir it"s nice to meet you." he said with a smile

Light looked at Ty not saying a word for a long moment and then ended up smiling

at him and returning the kindness he was given. knowing Light had always wanted revenge on

the rat, and know also knowing his past. How far he has come from where he once was, it will be

sad to see him fall once more. My heart hurt for him but also hurt for Saki and the man I was

becoming. someone I could look in the mirror and not recognize anymore. was I a man or the

dragon that consumed me? I watched from the house window as I watched Light and Ty get

closer playing next to the lake, sometimes fishing, at times swimming. I felt the day"s drag by,

minutes felt like hours and hours began to feel like days, I overheard Kei talking to Light about

waiting for four days to start the fight with his son. Of course Light cheerfully agreed to the

battle than.

Next thing I knew it was night time, meals began to linger in my minds eye. Why was I

feeling this way, why couldn"t I break the worry that Saki may never come back. That I may

never feel the touch of her skin on my. would I ever be able to see the love that she once had for

me in her eyes. Would she really come back like Light said she would or would she forever be

gone out of my life? So many questions and no one could answer them but for Saki. The only

thing that mattered was her, at the moment.

Before I knew it three days had past and today was the dayLight and Ty would fight each

other the sun was setting in a blood red sky. I stood curious to if blood would be spelt tonight.

The blood that would stain the ground would be unexpected though. How fate has a funny way

of working out.

I followed Light as he left the house and made his way to the lake. We were silent for the

most part I couldn"t understand why light was still going to fight Ty that night. they had become

so close the last three days they were together. Also there was something I couldn"t shake Saki

still hadn"t returned. Did I mess up that bad this time to the point she would never come back? I

didn"t even know where to start looking for her or I would have. I clinched the sword at my side.

the moon lit sky was beautiful that night I watched the moon beams dancing along the water for

what seemed like forever. Light was sitting next to a tree with his eyes closed for a minute before

he let out a sigh and stood up. He looked towards an opening in the trees waiting for something I

couldn"t hear.

"Are you ready Junjie?" Light questioned

"Yes, are you?" I said somewhat confused because I wouldn"t be fighting tonight or so I

thought

"Yes, I am, Junjie no matter what happens tonight keep your head up and make sure you

do what you need to, to survive." he said with a serious tone

I finally heard some rustling in the forest Light stood firm, I was wondering what we

walked into this time around. finally four figures walked into the opening. Two where Kei and

his son the other two I had never seen before. There was a slim women standing next to Kei she

wore only fur that barely covered anything. Her top was too small for her b.o.o.bs so they hung out

the top and the bottom of her shirt. He smooth ghost like skin glimmer in the light from the

moon. As I kept on looking at her I saw she was wearing what looked like undergarments made

of fur as well. the underwhere looked like it would break off of her in an instant if she made the

wrong move to quickly. Her hair was matted and looked like she had been rolling in the dirt.

Her eyes looked fierce and wild like a wolf her lips where big and lushus I was honestly

surprised her hair looked so bad when she was a good looking woman.

The man who stood next to Ty was fit he had muscles popping out of every inch of

clothing he had on. He was wearing a kimono though looked like he had money. the kimono was

definitely not cheap by all means. His face was fierce, and the only way I could think of

describing him at the moment was he was built like a horse. His facelle structure was so defined

and naturel. for a moment I thought I was getting jealous of how handsome he looked and for the

first time was happy Saki wasn"t present. I was happy to hear the woman"s voice that got me out

of my head just in time.

"Are you the great Junjie Manchu I have heard so much about?" she said " My name is

Koharu Kou since you can"t see my sign I will tell you who I am." she said my mind was kinda

lost in watching her almost naked b.r.e.a.s.t.s bounce in the moonlight.

"Did you hear me dragon?" she said in a husky voice that did somewhat remind me of a

wolf in plays I saw when I was younger

"No I"m sorry would you mind putting more clothes on so I could take you seriously?" I

replied

"Junjie she said she is the wolf from the zodiac and He is the horse Yuudia Takeshi. Get

your mind off of her body and where it needs to be. This isn"t something you should be taking

lightly Junjie, our lives are at stake here. these guys aren"t like the last people we have faced."

Light said I could hear the frustration in his tone

I looked at Light and felt my heart drop in my chest, Light knew we were going to fight

three of them tonight but how? There was no way we could beat them on our own. three against

two and already you could feel the tension grow. I looked up and didn"t realize the mutt was so

close to me I could feel her b.r.e.a.s.t.s touch my chest. I was only in my head for a moment I didn"t

see a weapon but the thing was I wasn"t looking close enough and know I was too close to her to

escape. She opened her mouth and I saw them her fangs her teeth was her weapon the steel from

every blade on her teeth shone in the moonlight I closed my eyes, I don"t know why it wouldn"t

hurt less, but I did.

I felt something warm splatter across my face, I felt no pain whatsoever but I could hear

her howling in the dark. I opened my eyes and saw the mutt laying on the ground with blood

spewing from her neck. I shot my eyes over to Light who was smiling for the first time. when he

saw my eyes fixated on him, he shook his head no and pointed to a tree that stood behind me. I

turned and looked up to where Light was pointing. It was Saki she did a flip out of the tree and

landed on her feet right in front of me. She had a smile on her face he eyes were bright, It looked

as though her whole body was smiling. It might of been the moonlight but I could see a light

glowing around her like nothing I had ever seen before. She placed her hand on my shoulder and

pushed me aside in her right hand she held throwing knives. She took her place next to Light as

she did they both looked at me and smiled.

"It"s about time you showed up Saki." Light said with a smile

"You know it"s always better to make a dramatic entrance."She laughed

"I think the fight will be more even know." Light said "let"s go Junjie." he smiled

I quickly took my place next to Saki, as I did I saw a light come from where Light was

standing, His tiger claws were back his eyes had changed color again. Light wasn"t a force to be

reckoned with. I was happy he was on my side, I swallowed hard and grabbed my sword from

it"s s.h.i.th for the first time the mist had engulfed my whole body, I had never felt so strong before

know. Was it because I was with the two people I held closest to my heart, the people I trusted

more than life itself. When the mist dissipated I heard Saki gasp. I saw Ty and Yuudai step back

I felt really good. Light stood with his back away from me with his tiger claw on his right hand

closest to his face and said.

" I knew you had It in you dragon." as he laughed

Saki got into her fighting stance which I thought she looked more like a monkey. One

foot would furmly be planted on the ground today was her right lag the other would be raised just

slightly, her left arm would go up above her head and down like the top of a c and her left are

would finish the c. She did look absolutely beautiful tonight I watched the breeze blow through

her hair she closed her eyes and felt the wind move through her body. tonight she was wearing

silk pants that would catch the light in the right way. Her shirt was made of silk as well it was a

long sleeve the sleeve where a little puffy, around her chest was open more than normal her

breast seemed to be a bit bigger than I remember.

"It"s Time!" light said

When I heard him say that I squatted down a bit and held my sword in front of me. The

first to move was Ty he was quick he moved like a ghost I could barely focus on where he was.

He wasn"t quick enough I never saw anything just felt a breeze across my face, then Light

standing in front of me. I looked to the left and saw Ty rolling on the ground the dirt was like

mist as his body rolled across the ground.

"You are mine Ty, I am a match for you not these two." he said as he smiled

"Oh yeah, cat you think you can defeat me." he said as he slowly raised from the ground

with blood coming from his face. "I didn"t even feel you touch me how?" he said confused as he

wiped away the blood

"It"s called I"m quicker than you rat boy." Light smiled showing his pearly white fangs

"Alright, let"s do this then Light." Ty smiled back

I saw light vanish, the only time you knew where they were when there weapons crossed

each other the sparks that kept flying around us.

"Well I guess it"s you two against me then doesn"t seem fair to me, But I"ll take you both

down." Yuudai said in a harsh deep voice

"Let"s just hope you can fight and your looks aren"t the only thing going for you." Saki

laughed

"You can try let"s do this enough talk." I said

Like that Saki and I were together again and ready to fight. Yuudai took his kimono off to

reveal thin armor that covered his body the only reason you didn"t know it was his body was

because it was shining in the moonlight. if it wasn"t for that I would have thought he was

completely naked. It was the same tan tone as his skin if it was day time you could probably

never notice it at all. I thought to myself is that his weapon? I never have seen anything like this

before, He ran towards us. Saki must have seen something I didn"t yet she ended up getting out

of her stance and quickly pushed me harder than I could ever believe she was capable of. I slid

across the ground to the right of Saki till I b.u.mped into a tree. when the dirt clouds dissipated I

saw what Saki was protecting me from. she was dangling about five feet of the ground her right

shoulder was pitched by some kind of invisible spike I watched he blood drip from spike to

spike. There had to be hundreds of them. she was lucky her right arm was all that was. .h.i.t.

"I got you little monkey, I"m surprised you moved quick enough to save your dragon

though." He laughed

"I wasn"t try to miss your attack I was trying to get hit to do this." she said as she ripped

the skin that was caught out of the spike.

Her blood drops fell like crystals onto the invisible spikes he had hidden from the sight of

my eyes. Yuudai was shocked that she had done that, he was so furious that he now wanted to

kill her more. As Saki stood in front of him I saw that he was about to attack her and I couldn"t

let her die I couldn"t lose her. Saki stood there motionless holding her right arm as the blood

poured out from between her fingers. Before I could move I saw a light twinkle I saw Light"s

tiger claws stab through Yuudai and Ty had come up in front of Yuudai to slit his throat as Light

distracted his gaze. As Yuudai fell we could see the look in his eyes as he couldn"t believe we

could beat him honestly I was confused to how Light and Ty would help destroy him together.

"Yes, we did it good work Ty!" Light said as his weapons vanished

"I know right, that was so cool your plan worked so well." Ty said happily

"Wait, you guy"s planned this out." I said

"Yes, we did Light didn"t want to kill me, and honestly I didn"t want to kill him either"

Ty said

"So where did Saki go? she looked pretty damaged. If it wasn"t for her doing that

destroying him would have been so much harder to do." Light said as he looked around and saw

poodles of her blood in the distance.

Light started to walk towards her blood but I stopped him. I looked at him as I placed my

sword back to my side and said.

"I will go get her." I said softly

"Alright, I will make camp next to the pound on the far side Saki and you can meet me

there. first I will get bandages and medicine. Make sure you bring her back she was losing a lot

of blood, She needs to be helped as soon as possible." He side in a concerned tone

"I will I promise." I said as I made my way following the blood marks on the ground I

walked for a while, I saw something in the distance It was Saki I was so happy I had finally

found her. I was sure she heard me coming up from behind her because she turned around and

smiled at me.
