Monster in the Cave

As they continued to go down the light diminished more and more. It was no problem for Yakura. Sounds, scents, trembles on earth, even a little breeze is enough to provide him sight. But the boy didn't have any power like that. So Yakura light a fire in his hand.

He was trying to act unconcerned but in reality he was worried about Kohi. He was a child trying to save people. Thats why Yakura didn't want to help him much. Cause he needed teaching more then help. If people helps him today, he would be killed tomorrow. But even so, he helped him. He saved him from the monsters and help him find the cave. Was that the best thing he could do or he lack the knowledge to teach him? He didn't know the answer. While Yakura was lost in his thoughts, they reached the bottom. There were three different ways. Yakura put his hand on ground and closed his eyes.

Kohi: What are you doing?

Yakura: I'm trying to sense the vibrations. This way we might find out where your brother went and where the monster is.

Kohi: Why here? Couldn't you do it a little sooner?

Yakura: The difference between places makes it harder to sense. Now we're on the same level so I can sense where they went.

Kohi: Can sense the monster, too?

Yakura: I can't sense it right now but first we should find your brother.

Kohi: So, which one?

Yakura: Left.

Yakura grabbed Kohi and started flying. They were quiet. Kohi was looking around. Yakura was focused on the way. Suddenly Yakura started to fill pain in his head. He slowed down but the pain was not stopping. The fire in his hand disappeared and he put his hand on his head. While the pain was getting bigger, he found out the source. There was a glowing crystal. He quickly destroyed it and landed.

Kohi: What was that, what's wrong?

Yakura: That was an Energy Crystal. It can be used for storing energy or power. It was the item that interrupted my power.

Kohi: Can you talk to them now?

Yakura: I'm afraid I can't. There must be more of them. I assume this monster isn't as brainless as others. Come. We must not lose time.

They kept flying. Yakura was a lot more carefull this time. He was watching his surroundings carefully and when he saw a crystal, he was destroying it immediately. They kept going and going. Suddenly from the depths of the cave an arrow flew right to Yakura. He caught it with two his two fingers and stopped flying.

Yakura: Who is the wise guy that shot an arrow to me?

Shoo: Me! Now tell me: Who are you?

Kohi: Big Brother! It's me!

Shoo: Kohi?

Yakura drops Kohi and he runs to his brother. Kohi puts his head on Shoo's chest and grasps his arms around his waist.

Shoo: You are not supposed to be here.

Kohi: I know. But I didn't want to be left behind.

Shoo puts his hand on Kohi's head.

Shoo: Kohi, we talked over this. You got skills but you are not ready for every battle.

Yakura: You don't need to worry about that. I'm sure he took his lesson.

Shoo: What does that mean?

Shion: And what were you doing with Kohi?

Yakura: Relax. I didn't hurt him. And he encountered with a few monsters back there. I'm sure he'll listen to you from now on.

Shoo:WHAT? YOU HAVE BEEN ATTACKED?

Kohi: Y-Yeah but I didn't get hurt. He came to my help just in time.

Shoo: Is that so? Guess I owe you an apology and I should thank you for saving my brother.

Yakura: No need to worry.

Akira: How did you managed to come here? It cost a lot of time and effort for us to come here.

Yakura: These wings of mine are pretty usefull and monsters are not a problem for me.

Kohi: Brother Yakura is amazing! He killed those monsters like it was nothing and he flies so fast and and he...

Shoo: WAIT! Did you said, Yakura?

Akira: <Gasps>

Shion: Oh no!

Yakura: Aren't you judging so quickly. I mean Yakura is not a common name but still...

Shoo got in front of Kohi and aimed at Yakura. Akira and Shion drawed their swords.

Shoo: Stay, back.

Yakura: You all are in a very deep cave that is a really dangerous monster's home and you are threatening the guy who brought your brother here and might be your only chance to getting out of here.

Kohi: <Grabs Shoo's arm> Brother, NO! He is not all that bad. If it wasn't him, I'd dead by now. Sometimes he is a douchebag but also a nice guy.

Yakura: Douchebag? Do you guys know a place where I can find a hot pepper. A good one.

Shoo: Kohi, how could you trust someone who killed countless people?

Kohi: Bu-but...

Yakura: Thats not his fault, he was helpless at that time. Besides, that monster might come any time. Since I can't sense well, we should be on guard.

Shion: What makes you think YOU can command us?

Yakura: That's not a command. An advice actu...

Suddenly Yakura stopped and then started to look around.

Akira: What the hell are y...

Yakura pointed his hand to them quickly and pushed them away and then a crature came from above and caught Yakura with its mouth. The monster shook him and hit him to the walls. Yakura tried to garb his sword but it was inside of the monster's mouth and his left arm was stuck between its teeth. After a few times he stopped trying and started to hit it's head with his right arm. It's head was hard but couldn't stand much against Yakura's strenght. The monster threw Yakura away and put it's hand on his head. Yakura stood up on his knees and spit some blood.

Yakura: <Turned to the others> Give me a few minutes to tear apart this f**ker.

Yakura stood up and pulled out his rod. Shoo and other's attention was on the monster no more. They were watching Yakura. His movement, his speed was incredible. He was spinning the rod with unbelievable speed. Yakura gathered everyone's attention to his rod. The monster was trying to follow his moves but it was no use, he was too fast for it. Yakura waited for right moment and throw his rod to the monster. The rod past through its chest, bounced off the wall and stuck to its shoulder.

Yakura's movements weren't just to distract but also store energy in his rod. Fast movements helps him to transfer and control energy easily. With that much energy, it could past through even rocks and his telekinetic powers help him to control it despite its speed. With that he could be tricky. Like changing its direction while flying or bouncing it off the walls.

While the monster was suffering Yakura noticed something. It had a belt and there was a crystal on it, which was glowing more an more bright. Yakura realized what it was but it was too late. The other crystals reacted to the crystal on the monsters and began to emit mind waves. Others were affected but not s much as Yakura. He tried to block those waves but the monster him quickly. It knocked down Yakura to the ground. It was scratching and biting Yakura.

Shoo barely stood up and treid to aim for the monster. But he was hardly holding the bow. It was so hard to aim in this stress and pain. He shot an arrow but he missed the monster, he got its attention though. The monster left Yakura and began to run towards Shoo. He tried to get another arrow but he stopped ones he saw a dark hand. The gigantic hand caught the monster. Shoo looked around to find the source of the hand. It was Yakura. Covered in blood, barely standing and very angry.

Part of his chest and all of his left arm was covered in darkness. Yakura stood up and his right hand turned into dark. Then he fired a dark spear to the crystal on the monster. He destroyed it and pierced through the monster. It tried to escape but Yakura was holding it very tight. While the effect of the other crystals were lowering, darkness around the monster grow larger. Yakura cut off it's head and crushed it's body.

Kohi hid behind his brother. Akira and Shion were terrified and they were trying to clean themselves from the monster's shredded pieces. Shoo was just, looking around. Blood and monster's pieces were everywhere. And Yakura, what was that power? He heard about so many different powers but this was... unlike anything.

The dark power was disappeared. While he was trying to stand still:

Yakura: Sorry you had to see this. The situation made me lose control.

Shoo:<Cautiously> Wh-what was that?

Yakura: It was Dark Energy. It is a type of power that unleashes great amount of energy. I don't like to use it often, cause I can't control it fully yet. But once I get really, REALLY angry I lose control and unleash it.

Shion: Well that was savege and <Wipes blood on herself> disgusting. But aside from that, you... umm... saved us. So... thanks.

Yakura: No problem. So, do you guys still wanna kill me?

Akira: Isn't it... bothering you?

Yakura: Naah! You wouldn't believe how many creaures wanting to kill me. I get used to it. By the way, you should work on shooting an arrow. In normal situations you might be great but that wouldn't help you in a dangerous situation like before.

Shoo: Alright. I'll... keep that in my mind.

Kohi: So? What are we gonna do?

Shoo: I don't think he has any plan to kill us, so let's just get out of here.

Yakura: Alright! Then see ya!

From the entry side of the cave Kowata appeared.

Kowata: My, my. Aren't you hasty?

Yakura: <Turns to him> Where should I start? I flew for hours. Had to carry an annoying boy. Flew again. Went through down of this damn cave. Got attacked by f**king crystals. That guy almost shot me. This f**king monster beat the c**p out of me, so I had to unleash my Dark Powers and YOU ARE COMING HERE NOW?!

Kowata: Well actually I was here quite time ago. Just wanted to watch how good you socialize.

Yakura pointed his hand to Kowata.

Yakura: GET HIM!

5 souls appeared from Yakura's hand attacked Kowata.

Kowata: < Dodging the souls> Hmm I thought you mad get a little mad but you didn't need to. Cause I knew you would beat that monster.

Yakura: DON'T GİVE ME THAT BULLS**T. If you want to analyze, do it when I'm not someones dinner!

Kowata: Yakura, can you please call them back. Its hard to talk like that.

Yakura: Ahh! FINE! <He summoned them back>

Kowata: Anyway. Its great that all of you are here.

Kohi: Are you Yakura's friend that was looking for my brother.

Kowata: Correct my little friend. I learned a lot about you all. Your skills, your courage and I wanted to merge your talent with ours, if you wish to.

Yakura: Yeaah! Let's all form a friendship club and tell stories to each other.

Kowata: AHEM!

Yakura: Oh! Sorry.

Kowata: So? What do you say?

Shoo: First you must answer a few questions but not in this place.

Kowata: As you wish. Then let us go.

Kowata closed his eyes and focused and then everybody started taking off.

Kowata: Hold tight.

Shoo: TO WHAT?

They started flying to exit.
