Intoxia Warriors - Mizuka Blood (Book One)

by De'Karhi Philpot

  But before she had a chance to realize it, Black had already left the Blue-Eyes Fortress. Nonetheless, she felt as if the Grim Reaper had taught her everything he knows about letting out dark emotions and using it against her foes during the right time.

  "I don't think that you trying to bring up some light memories with me is going to do any good, Lola. You've turned your back on me by lying. That's one of the biggest mistakes that you've ever made," Crystal uttered sadly. Her eyes were a blistering blue. She felt her heart racing too quickly with the other three standing behind her.

  Lola didn't have time to react in an emotional state. She had to brush it all aside and engage the fifteen year-old apprentice in cold blood. Coming from behind her were HItachi and the others.

  Crystal triggered her Eagle Symbol to shield herself from the attacks that allowed the feathers to easily reduce to water. It then developed into steam; which blasted across the atmosphere of the Blue-Eyes Fortress.

  Lola burst her way through the immense pillar as she blew it all away. Suddenly, Crystal was right behind her and take the 'cheap' way out of the fight by striking the spinal cord.

  Luckily, thanks to the Core General's experiences with behind the back quick attacks, she willingly lowered her body down and flipped forward, kicking the sword out of the gal's hands. Through desperate attempts, the Snake Symbol already transfered towards the Black Sword before it was knocked from her, only to then sense another set of auras thundering at her. Once the swords from Hitachi and Alex rivaled hers, something unexpected occurred through the collide.

  The Snake Symbol motioned itself to the sword segment of the weapon, sneaking it's way out from the sharp end and weaving drastically from the blade and heading straight at Alex without slowing down. The scene had instantly slowed down with Alex's eyes widening in horror. In a split second, Sonya's grasp broke the slow timing with Hiba storming in and couldn't necessarily land a kick to Crystal's face.

  Crystal suddenly pressed her hand up and caught Hiba's whole face with the support of the Lioness Symbol triggered in the flash through her hands. It formed into an anthropomorphic arm of the Lioness. The force had drove the oddly-pink haired Hinura to the ground with Crystal pinning the back of her skull down. The impact had nearly made Hiba nausea from the impact.

  She then had the Snake Symbol slip amazingly through Sonya's grip, altering the direction from her to the weakened Hinura with the attempt to kill her discriminately.

  Hiba then her mouth covered as well as her facial appearance, hearing her the screaming from underneath the paw. It was barely heard as the Snake Symbol, combined with the Lioness' fierce jaws, slammed around the left side of Hiba's ribs. The attack had encouraged Hiba to scream dramatically but not loud enough.

  The Mizuka General blazed in with another attack called Fierce Steaming Vortex. The Fierce Steaming Vortex is an ability that can allow Lola to burst through anything or anyone with a blur speed of flames oozing from behind her. The images of the flames had came toward the Mizuka General's right fist as it developed immensely as a stack flames struck Crystal directly at her face. Smoke had emerged just seconds after Crystal released the Snake Symbol from Hiba's, now wounded left rib.

  The two of them had yet to finish their duel with each other. As the ensuing battle stirred with fiber, tension, emotions, and sparks of elements onward, Kuronina remained in the same spot as she did from before the showdown escalated.

  For such a young age, Crystal's abilities to use the Diary Symbols are spectacular. I never thought that she'd be the one capable of wielding such the mentality of concentration while Diamond only used my powers for her own good. Perhaps I should reconsider my prejudice behavior and see how this really goes. That's only if Crystal's able to survive this chaotic duo, Kuronina's sight seemed a bit shaky as she was thinking calmly, but then she sealed them, regaining her focus on watching the fight very carefully.

  Even in milliseconds, Crystal's face was unavoidably guarded by Eagle Symbol's defensive ability: The Eagle's Nest. The Eagle's Nest is a specialty that allowed the Eagle Symbol to swim to the left side of the Hostess' back and spill out through behind and at the speed of the Lioness' increased in time to block the attack.

  Kuronina whistled, impressed with the performance from both combatants, especially the young Aruba apprentice of Black Hinura. Black sure has trained this young lady well. But let's see how long she can last against the Core General of the Intoxian Army

  Grounds crumbling and shaking, feathers splattering in every corners. Bodies all over the place. That was all the one thing that Death was expecting to witness with the extra eyes of an Avarian Beast of Crystal's Bloodline.

  I have experienced the fact that my older brothers, sisters and I have never had common grounds of how we look at the human race. Hence that most of the times, when it comes to chaos, everything is on the line. Battlefields are like a giant chessboard that makes the King and Queen strategize their movements before sending their pawns into battle; even it the moves are brutally risky.

  The wing of the Eagle had smacked the General back away from the attack, spine-first did she go against a boulder of ice. The pressure of her spine had caused the boulder to collapse, burying her body right underneath it.

  Sonya then stepped in after she carefully analyzed Crystal's movements. However, she was letting her emotions get in the way and had no choice but to try and reach out to her.

  “Crystal, it’s me, Sonya,” the blue-haired Amili cried out as she threw a punch at Crystal but missed. She moved in at a certain speed and didn’t realize the qualities of her prowess. “Listen, I’m sorry. I could care less how long it'll take for me to convince you.”

  Crystal evaded the upsetting Sonya. It wasn’t enough to break through. Mainly, in most people’s views, it takes more than mere words to show if that person clearly meant good of their apology.

  “You think that I’m going to let the destruction of my seventh birthday slide that easily? To think that all I wanted was friends and you decide to devote your time on being my enemy,” Crystal cried out, swinging her sword wildly with each word increasing. “All the bullying, torture, humiliation and you wait seven years to tell me you’re sorry?”

  Sonya felt a bit loss on words for a moment, but then found another set of words to use against Crystal, “That may have been the case. Deep down inside I felt alone when I never had anyone to support me or acknowledge my skills.”

  Their fists then collided, Crystal’s paws coiled into a fist and Sonya’s were an average human hand. They stormed the field with each blow; moving incredibly that it almost made Hitachi dizzy trying to keep up with them. He then caught a headache with coincidence that the two weren’t slowing down as he closed his eyes.

  Sonya flipped backwards with a kick landing straight on Crystal’s right forearm with an unfortunate Symbol emerging from somewhere in the abyss of her heart. It showed the form of a blue, scaly arm embracing the pressure from Sonya’s backward kick. It was a mixture of blue-purple mist sprinkling out of the Amili gal’s attack.

  “Ha, don’t make me laugh myself off. I didn’t expect to hear any of these words from a scumbag that’s claimed to be sorry for what had happened to the victim,” Crystal moved then grasped the leg Sonya tried to strike her with, dragging her in with the blue-scaled fist thrusting it’s way against the roof of Sonya’s chin, activating her Eagle Symbol and soaring down at high speed until she launched her down with full throttle to create somewhat of a crater in the ground beneath them. Blood trickled out from the nose to the mouth.

  Sonya’s eyes ventured into a haze, blacked out from the slamming blow. She felt her skull developing an ache.

  It wasn't so easy for Crystal to endure more pain than she's had in the past. The current, darker version of Lola's daughter-figure boiled over in a way with a storm of feathers soaring directly at the Hitachi.

  Hitachi stretched his sword forward and then used his ability: Heatwave Fan. Crystal's expression went from h
appy to disappointed.

  Hitachi's heart was beginning to tell him that he'd needed to express his reasoning for harming Crystal on a consistent and persistent basis. All the jealousy, from his view, was largely justified.

  As Crystal's expression soon returned to a look of deep; she then wanted to hear Hitachi's illogical excuse for why he constantly bullied and harassed her. She was somewhat trying to stop herself from attacking him, Crystal then begin to analyze most of his movements and how much stamina he has. It's as if she was being trained as well to sense the weakness in her opponents.

  "Hitachi, Hitachi, Hitachi," Crystal nodded her head shamefully. She closed her eyes, gawking down at her sword, not speck of blood was caked upon. "You've been the last person that I was expected to hear. The discimination you and the other students have had against me was beyond forgivable. Don't even try to express your feelings towards me."

  Hitachi knew that his actions for hurting the girl wasn't justified. When he was around eleven years old, he felt as if it was because of the actions his mother bestowed upon him.

  Through the process of the battle, Hitachi then opened his mouth and started speaking, "Crystal."

  Crystal straightened her head as she listened. Regardless of what he wanted to say to her, it still wouldn't give Hitachi the excusable pass as to why he downright disrespected her.

  Black and the rest of Bloodlust Revelation were done with their task and had decided to go their isolated ways for the next six years. Despite all the effort Black had made for this plot, it was clearer that one of his associates were on the verge of going back to Blue-Eyes Fortress to settle a score with the Mizuka General.

  "I have completed my task. There's been a lot more than what I could adapt with the Diary Symbols, re-awakening Kuronina from the frozen prison she's been in for fifteen years, and now I see no point in staying here anymore," Black retorted rather calmly instead of excitingly.

  “Now what do you want to do at this point Black, aside going our own ways?” Lisa had exposed her puppy-dog eyes at the Reaper with sorrow overwhelming her.

  Black answered rather disappointingly. He placed both his skeletal hands onto the succubus’ shoulders and said something he she’s been waiting to hear for the longest time before leaving, “I’m proud of you.”

  The steam in Lisa’s eyes grew even hotter, trying her absolute to evade the fact that she was showing emotions to the Grim Reaper himself. Marscilla, however, had other plans that were for more relevant to the plot that Black planned a year before the first ominous Leserado War.

  The others gawked over at the Erisa member with contempt. Some of them felt as if she’s going to do something that Black’s forbidden her from doing. Unfortunately, those things didn’t seem to go according to the Reaper’s original plan like it did in the past. The psychological effects of Marscilla’s mind constantly altered from the day she was brought to Leserado to what’s occurring right now.

  “Black, you need to allow me to go through with it again.” Marscilla thought of begging, but realized that beggars couldn’t be choosers. She sighed as she placed her hand on the grip of her raspberry pink falchion sword.

  “I will grant you the opportunity to finish what you’ve started. Even though it wasn’t your fault you had to go through such aggressive pain because of Diamond and how you lost your chance to being a mother all because of her,” Black approved his authorities to Marscilla. “Best keep in mind that there’s much hostility erupting world-wide. So I want you to meet us back at this very ghostly tomb within six years. If you can do that, then I’ll be sure that your revenge against Diamond will be more than a success.”

  “What do you mean by ‘success?’” Marscilla had peered up at the Reaper; both eyes glued. She also then begun to have theoretical suspicions about her plans for a while and why she couldn’t be too instant to annihilating Lola along with the rest of her members in the blink of an eye. “My deal with you was very sentimental from when I first joined years ago.”

  The others were puzzled, unaware of what was the issue the Erisa Bloodlust member had to address with the beast.

  “Black,” Charlie had joined the scene with his eyes filled with suspicions. “What is Marscilla talking about?”

  The lobby grounds were silence, all five of Black’s associates were starting to develop a scent of mistrust towards the only thing that helped them destroyed Diamond. He then walked over to the first step of the stairs with his scythe placed down in front of him.

  “Everyone. This is by far the most critical and dumbest thing I’ve ever told you. Sometimes, I can let out all the information, but in this case, for Marscilla’s reasoning for vendetta, I will make this an exception.”

  To everyone’s surprise, Marscilla had turned her body in the direction that led to the Blue-Eyes Fortress where the battle continued between the family that Crystal’s fighting against. As she begun distancing herself away from the pack, Black explained the deal he made with Diamond on the day Leserado War occurred.

  The raspberry pink-haired Bloodlust member was more than enthusiastic about the results and how it would turn out in the end. Killing Diamond’s daughter with brute force would be the pinnacle to developing Bloodlust Revelation's reputation to the core.

  “What was the promise that Marscilla, so special in a sense, deserved to have from you?” Charlie’s tone showed proof that he was more annoyed with Black catering to Marscilla on certain things when it came to Black. The relationship had always been vast between Black and his disciple.

  “The promise, as I’ve stated before, is Marscilla lost her opportunity to be the mother of her own child.”

  Shiver had continued her fight with Sagare with her Frostbite Spear in hand. She swung it countless times as Sagare constantly dodged thrust. He used his Fist of Flames to land a hit on Shiver; knocking her near the entrance of Blue-Eyes Fortress. She then stepped deeper into the Fortress with Sagare coming in wildly; but not before Mikeru made his comeback.

  Just when Sagare was about to kill Shiver, her associate stepped in, delivering a straight kick to the far end of his enemy’s right jaw with nothing but a small ounce of blood leaking from his face after he went spine-first against the wall of Corridor Prison.

  “Mikeru,” Shiver cried out. She saw reinforcements arrive in time to step in and take over until Lola’s completed her mission.

  “Man, the battle’s pretty stressful as fuck, but at least I’ll be able to help out anyway we can. We’ll take it from here, Head-Administrator. You just get in there and aid Lola. This is something that we all must do,” Mikeru had no doubt that he was going to have the chance to die on these battlefields of Leserado.

  “Mikeru, you could die if you try altering into your Renugarasaka form. Don’t you remember what happened the last time you did that?” Shiver warned with a worried glance on her face. Mikeru. You’ve finally decide to mature and understand the reality of what’s going on in the present. I guess this my way of saying I’m proud of you for advancing.

  “Thanks, Shiver,” Mikeru said, bursting out in laughter and surprising Shiver even more. “What you didn’t think I’d be able to hear you. I’m aware of that Energy Signal you all have. It’s a good thing I was born with it.”

  Shiver giggled, but felt the aching in her stomach growing. The heat inside her was getting to her as she took a few moments to relax, suddenly she felt something more critical occurring in her system. She winced, groaning loudly as it caught Mikeru’s attention.

  He wanted to aid the Head-Administrator, but he was told by Tornado, who managed to catch up to them along with his warriors to take defeat Sagare and let the Poison General take care of the rest.

  “Understood, sir,” Mikeru replied in respect. “Please make sure she’s doing fine; I’ll do my best to survive this fight.”

  Tornado then noticed a sudden change in the young man. He’d always suspected that Mikeru was the ‘pretty boy’ that was always
persistent in doing things his way. Sometimes it was logical, sometimes it made no sense, but he’d always went ahead and did what his heart told him to.

  Looking back at Sagare, whose standing with both hands in his pocket, could sense a vast battle thundering in as it were a freight train.

  Mikeru, whose wasting no time in talking, used the amount of energy he had in his body to altered into the form of the Legendary Renuagarasaka transformation.

  Throughout history of the Amili Beast being the original developer and creator of the Renugarasaka, Renasakuya had begun overusing her powers as the host with the intentions of destroying the Avarian Beast of the Hinura Family. She then began to feel depressed about the situation about what would happened if the Amili Beast never surrendered it to a more mature individual that can withstand and take control of the demonic powers. Once when Black found out about it, he had a meeting with the Eight-legged Beast (or sixteen-legged Beast when altering into stage two) the Reaper was too quick to come up with a strategy in lending the powers over to Maxim Amili.

  Mikeru’s spine had spitted out two large, golden brown wings with cadmium red outlines. Two horns in the color of camel erupted through each side of his forehead. All the teeth in his mouth grew sharper than the shark and knife combined. His hands had altered into ominous red hands with red vessels trailing throughout the entirety of his hands. It was a mixture of radical red and international orange. The frame of Mikeru’s demon form was caked through rich black aura oozing dramatically around him with the ghoulish sounds of demons vilely laughing enthusiastically.

  Gawking over at what the change of the Amili demon’s alternation, Sagare had anticipated the infamous Amili Bloodline’s immense force. Hence that throughout his experiences of combating those, as he called ‘Monstrous Children,’ Sagare had been on the verge of death, more than six times. He and Lisa fought back at Dragon’s Sky a number of months ago. When Sagare was on the lookout for the Tyrant Titans (representation of the Hinura family) Lisa became a blind spot and tried to kill him indiscriminately. She was ordered by Black to eliminate him due to his betrayal and despise for the way how the Bloodlust Revelation stood for. Therefore, he's not a former member of the relentless group.
