Chapter 5
Imoro Iacha (Mr. Carter)
When I woke up from the training session I got up from bed and then found my phone and called an old friend.
“Hello?” I heard.
“Hey, it’s me but I think they have tapped the line so I’ll make it quick. I told her.” I said quickly then hung up. I looked down at my bedside clock and saw it was already 7:45 . I have to hurry or I’m going to be late! I thought to myself. I quickly went to my little apartment bathroom and took a shower and got ready for school. At around 8:10 I scurried out of my apartment and drove to the school. When I stopped at a traffic light I looked over at the car next to me. Gross I thought that guy is picking his nose! I quickly looked away. The light then turned green and I pulled forward. But just then a car running the red light crashed straight into my side of my car. I then climbed out of the passenger side door to then collapsed on the ground surprised I hadn’t broken anything that badly I watched as my bones pulled themselves back into place and several shallow cuts heal but the more deep ones were left unhealed. I stood back up to check on the other driver. But when I got to the car there was no one in it. I looked around searching for the victim.
“Hey, did you see where that person went?” I asked one of the people who had gathered to help out. He just stared at me in shock like I was a ghost. I then shook him a little.
He then said, “There was a purplish person who got out and then jumped up onto the building over there.” He pointed over to the building behind me “He also had red eyes and these pointy elf ears.”
“Ok thanks.” I said while running back towards the building. I was about to also jump up but decided against it and climbed up the fire escape ladder. When I got up to the top I found the offending man. He was just like they had described in the rumors. He was average height but he had light purple skin and short green and black hair that hung around his face. He had wine colored eyes. He was wearing a white formal shirt with a leather jacket over it and had dark blue jeans with black and white converse.
“Are you Kic Terabance?” I asked. “Literally the right leg of Ridor Terabance?”
“Yes very good!” he taunted while smirking.
“Why did come for me?”
“Because if I kill the guardians first then the Aeros would never find out that they were ever needed.”
“Well you’re a little late for me because I have already told my Aeros.” I pulled my spirit form out of my human form and set the human shell to the side. I then turned back to the Dark Nive and drew my Ken. (Or double sided Japanese sword)
“Really now? Then I guess I’ll just have to defeat both of you.” He said now pulling up his right pants leg and touched a katana tattoo on his calf. It then glowed and he put his hand into his skin and pulled the katana right out. He came running toward me, sword poised for attack. I closed the gap between us by running toward him as well. I swung my sword upwards towards his abdomen but he disappeared right before I was to hit him. I felt his Uri behind me as he reappeared behind me, trying to hit me on my back. I jumped away quickly but his sword still managed to make a shallow gash on my back. I felt it heal over.
Jeez that was close… I thought to myself. I charged back at him using the trick he had used but this time I appeared behind him long enough for him to turn around to attack but then I flashed back to where I was before and brought my sword down on his shoulder making a deep cut. I back flipped away as he screamed out then turned around quickly to try to hit me. I countered his sword and then pushed hard back against him. He wasn’t expecting me to counter so he started to stumble backwards. I quickly stepped forward and stabbed my katana through his chest.
But then he started laughing. Like not just any normal laugh, this laugh sounded psychotic. He grabbed my sword where it had impaled him and broke it in half with his hand. Except that one half was still inside him. He placed his hand on my chest and the next thing I know I lying on the ground at least 20 feet away. He started slowly walking toward me but then he pulled out the half of the sword that was in him. Oh....my…god…he just took that attack like it was nothing!
“You looked surprised!” He said chucking. “Did you really think that YOU, a little bitty red captain, could defeat me so easily?” He knelt down to where I was still lying on the ground. “Maybe next time, Captain.” He patted my head then disappeared.
I stood up and went back to my human form. I put my spirit form back into it and then quickly went back down the fire escape. I didn’t want to be stopped by the police now surrounding the crash I had been involved in so I went around to the other side of the building. I wasn’t far from the school so I ran the rest of the way I have to get to her before he does. I thought as I pushed my self to run faster. I burst through the front doors of the school building. I looked both ways down the hall looking for Wysh. I saw her blonde and red hair bobbing in the crowd and ran toward her.
