The Struggle

Saki’s hair changed color repeatedly from blue to red. Her wings started to turn black as one wing became feathery and the other skin-like. Saki screamed as jolts of pain pulsated through her body. She stood there and stared off into the distance at the wall behind Riion. A glass mirror saw the reflection of them both and Saki screamed with hatred of how she looked. The scream shattered the glass. Shards scattered everywhere as Fin stood beyond where the glass was placed. She wore a skinny, silky, black dress that was skintight; riffles at the bottom and lace were at the v-neck: her eyes glowing once again.

“I told you to stay away from Nite,” Fin gloated, “Now look at you. You can’t even talk, can you?”

A screech replied from Saki’s lips, and then she just stood there and stared at Riion.

“Just as I thought. I will assassinate you for taking the first kiss away from me!”

Fin placed one hand over the other, not touching, and formed a ball of robin egg colored blue light. Lightening flared around it. Fin grinned and closed her eyes as a bolt shot out from the ball and hit Seiya in the stomach. Fin lifted the ball with her hands, which also lifted Seiya off the ground. Seiya screamed once again. Riion brought his hands back and thrust them forward. A dagger flew in the air and stabbed the spot where the lightening bolt flashed. Blood dripped and slid down her legs and onto the floor. Seiya’s eyes widened as tears started to fall from the corners of her majestic blue eyes. Trickles of blood came out from the corners of her mouth as she coughed harshly.

“Ri-ion….” Saki tried to speak, but hardly a whisper came out.

Her heart pounded in her chest, heat pulsated beneath her tanned skin. Seiya’s eyes changed color to a light pink when she blinked. Fangs grew inside her bloody mouth and she closed it; biting her lip. When she reopened her mouth, blood dripped from her fangs. A crackling noise was heard from the lightening bolt as it continued to hold Seiya in place. Seiya reached down and grabbed the dagger slowly while she tried to resist Fin’s magical hold. More blood poured from the wound as she pulled it out. She brought it up to her lips and licked the blood off the silver blade. Seiya grinned and with all her might, she forced the dagger down and stabbed Riion at the top of his head.

He screamed remorselessly as blood spurted. Riion fell backward feeling for the dagger’s handle. He tripped over a chair and hit his back against the wall to the right. Blood continued to spurt out when Seiya glanced back at Fin who apparently did not move. Seiya brought her hands up to form an X to block the magic and she fell back down to the ground as a force field formed between her and the bolt of lightening. Fin separated her hands and the ball of light evaporated; sending white sparks into the air. The heat continued to burn within Seiya as she pronounced a spell from under her breath….

“Tamashii….Shuugoo…Sukui!!”

Black angels gathered in the room as Riion continued to scream with pain, nearing death. The room darkened as clouds formed above. Fin stared and backed up a step. The angels with black wings blew a stream of fire from their lips with their left hands to their mouths. Fin was surrounded by fire and couldn’t move. The flames engulfed her and she screeched in agony as she vanished. The room lightened up again as the angels disappeared with her soul. The flames evanesced and were gone completely a moment later. Seiya looked over at Riion’s lifeless body and she cried ice-cold tears.

Riion’s body quickly dissipated into the thick air once Seiya reached over and touched his smooth hand. Seiya’s breathing staggered and she looked about her, not knowing what to do. An applause was heard from where Fin had once stood. It was Nite who was walking out into the open from the right side of the open wall.
