Ryan and crimiya stood amongst a crowd of people.The two were gathering people to lead them out the city."Why are we stuck on baby sitting duty?"Crimiya asked in a low tone in a little resentment evident in his voice.
"This may be boring but it's the most important part of the job afterall if too many casualties arise hate for voudaju users may deepen. "Ryan, do you really think whether ten or thousand die it will change the hate campaign that is bound to happen."
"No but limiting damages is a must and afterall we are not as strong as the others it's only natural we serve as the aid."True but it's not all bad. We at least get good press for our good deeds."
"Crimiya never hold your breath while waiting for public acknolegement."These damn voudaju users every day it's another issue I knew this would eventually happen. Those people caused the destruction of my house and shop."
Ryan and crimiya heard this causing them both to let out a collective sigh."Hey brats, is the academy gonna be held liable for damages and why is your response so late aren't you all supposed to train soldiers to protect us from terrorism."
Ryan turned around as he took a deep breath and looked at the old man.He saw the old man he was about 5,5 and had a white bushy beard he had brown and had a furious look on his face.
"Sir were not a part of the academy, just normal voudaju users, not normal people trying to help."said Ryan in the most sincere voice possible.
"Wait, you're a child aren't you ruffians supposed to be training at the academy to serve society it's probably ruffians like you who caused this mess."
This statement caused crimiya's voudaju to suddenly flare but ryan grabbed his shoulder before anyone noticed."Sir we are foreigners just trying to help."
"Well then where are the students and the teachers? Those brats are meant to serve us but they're hiding away. I swear I'm gonna push for collars to make you people remember you are no better than regular folk."
Ryan tightened his grip around crimiya's shoulder.A woman then kicked the old man in the knee."Hey those are still children you bastard and my daughter is one of them."
This surprised the two as they somehow didn't even notice the woman."Ah my leg you damn bitch you terrorist sympathizer those people will enslave is the moment they get a chance!"
"And old ignorant men like you are the reason issues like this happen isolating a group out of fear and hatred has never gone well!"said the woman as the man smirked.
"You think it's just me look at everyone around us how many mothers have lost their sons,how many how many daughters have lost their fathers how many people have lost their livelihood if protecting ourselves is discrimination then maybe it should be normalized."
"Oh please surely not everyone thinks like this who's with me."The woman looked around as she saw the hundreds of people avoiding her gaze.She gritted her teeth.
"These are just people, they can be your son or daughter, some are bad but you can't villainize an entire group because people like you and me do the same!"The woman said in anger.
"Yeah but when that group is stronger and faster we have to keep them in control."Hearing this the woman raised her fist to hit the man but crimiya and ryan stopped her.
"You can't beat hate out of people, you doing this won't help people like me or your daughter."said Ryan as rage filled the woman's eyes."No, what do you mean people like you, you're just people!"shouted the woman as both boys let go of her hand.
A young lady then pushed past the people and ran in front of the old man.She then bowed down to the woman,Ryan and Crimea."I'm sorry please forgive my grandpa he's upset we still can't find my grandma."
The girl had long black hair, brown skin and brown eyes. She wore a black dress with a yellow skirt and a purse wrapped around her body."Wait you're a."Ryan then slapped Crimiya, stopping him from speaking.
The woman walked away as the girl helped up her grandma."Jenna these people are nothing but evil the moment we ease up on them power will go to their head."
"What can I respond with? On one hand any defence will be seemingly like i'm just trying to save face but if i say nothing i'm just compliant but if i'm too defensive grandpa may suspect me what do i do what do i do."These were the thoughts going through the girl's head.
Noticing the conflict ryan sneakily signaled to her to not say anything.Crimiya turned to the one."Hello we didn't get properly acquainted. My name is Ryan and this is my friend Crimiya."
"Oh nice to meet you my name is mya and it's no big deal. I suppose I wasn't doing it for you but for my daughter and me to a certain extent."This state confused both boys but they didn't think too much on it.
"Well I suppose I did overreact a little, sorry me and my daughter got separated so I suppose I just wanted something to take my frustration out on."
"Well what does your daughter look like i can make a heat seeker image with my voudaju to locate her."said crimiya."Wait you can actually do that huh the things you can do is truly amazing."crimiya rubbed his head not really used to being complimented.
"So what does your daughter look like?"asked crimiya as he held up his left hand."Let see she has pale skin brown eyes brown hair she is wearing a pink dress and is also wearing a gold bracelet with a blue gem embedded inside it."
Hearing this and watching Crimiya craft the image of the girl, Ryan couldn't help but find how calm the woman was. He knew she wasn't lying but for some reason she isn't as worried as you'd expect from a concerned mother.
"Okay i just need a piece of your dna or hers to trace her location."Oh okay"Mya then pulled out a strand of her hair and handed it out to crimiya.Seeing this the people around them started to whisper.
"What are they doing!"
"Must be some kind of ritual."
"Hush they may hear you. I heard those people have supernatural hearing."
The three payed no heed to these comments as crimiya closed his eyes as the light image of the girl took the air as turned into a map of the city.
On the map they were currently on the south west region and malika was on the east but luckily for them the dot was pointed in the exact area where they were headed the city outskirts near the forest.
"It seems she has already been escorted to the safe area."Said ryan as a sigh of relief escaped Maya's mouth."I'll contact our friends to check on her to make you feel more assured and their around the same age"said crimiya.
"Thank you very much you boys are very kind hearted whoever raised you did a really good job."Hearing this both boys thought of their past but they didn't let this show as they smiled.
"I guess jennifer is doing a good job."said ryan."So you admit you see her as your mom."said crimiya teasingly."No but saying that would make her feel old and annoy her so even though she's like our older sister I'll call her mom to see her reaction."
Mya chuckled slightly as Ryan cleared his throat."Okay let me call these two."Ryan's phone then started to ring."Perfect timing it must be them." said Ryan as he answered his phone.
"Ryan get over here a girl that Malika saved has a curse bond attached to her. She's going berserk i can't protect the civilians."The phone then cut off but before it did he heard several screams.
Mya starred to sweat as she hurriedly asked"is their anyway to get their faster."Yes but to teleport so many people at once would be dangerous in a combat zone and it would take almost one third of my reserves."
"Ryan take her and go i'll finish escorting these people."Ryan nodded his head as his shadow attached to mya's own.The two then vanished as the people in the crowd started to shout.
WHERE DID THEY GO!
Having our lives entrusted to two brats was bad but now one
And he left with that lady. I wonder if she's a.
Crimiya then grabbed the man who was about to say tgat by the face and slammed him into the ground.Ahh my face my fucking face!"Anyone else wants to say something stupid and ignorant."The area went deathly silent as crimiya spoke again.
"I don't care how you see me or what any of you think but just as you have a right to run your mouth I have the right to give you the consequences and unfortunately I'm not very patient like my friend."
Crimiya then picked the man who was over twelve inches taller than him by the collar.A red light then engulfed the man as his dislocated jaw healed and his destroyed skin fell off regrowing.
Crimiya then tossed the man to the ground as he turned and started to walk away."Follow me or don't your choice I'm not the one who's going to die."
"The people slowly trekked behind crimiya not saying a word as he led them through the destroyed neighborhood.Why did i let that get to me great i made things worse.
No these ignorant assholes will be using this the others won't be happy.I wonder if i should just kill all of them no it's not worth it can't wait to leave this place."These were thoughts going through crimiya's head as he trudged
through the streets.
He then froze holding up his hand as the people following behind him froze."What's going on brat why did we stop!"shouted the old man the only one who didn't lose hid guts at crimiya's earlier stunt.
If i tell them were being watched the panic may cause them to start trampling each other what do i do.A person then appeared in the middle of the street in front of crimiya.
The person wore a veil over head she wore a white priest robe her closed eyes open revealing emerald green eyes."This lady is not helping the cause of voudaju users."said ryan to himself but his eyes went wide as he noticed the emblem of a mask wearing figure on her robe.
"You're a part of the tricksters cult."Where did that name come from? We are known as the trickster discovery organization. "Said the woman which caused crimiya to ask.
"Then why are you wearing robes and you're literally wearing a veil."Whatever you are associated with, little boy."Little boy I'm eleven and you look to be only sixteen. How dare you call me a little boy."
"Wait eleven and he picked up and beat up Tobias just like that, these people really are freaks!"Crimiya tuned out these statements as his eyed narrowed.
"Teanoy be careful he's no as weak as he seems."said a mysterious voice from inside the woman's subconscious."Are you a friend or an enemy."The woman tilted her head."If i was an enemy, do you think I would have shown myself instead of killing everyone here?"
"It called ulterior motives."replied crimiya.The gurl chuckled."A vigilant one aren't you."Don't play with me woman you're a voudaju user right and if you're a good one you know the code."Said Ryan as the girl tapped him on the shoulder.
"You're a little slow on reaction and my answer is I am an enemy."The woman's hand then flew at Crimiya's neck, slicing off his head.
AHH WHAT THE HELL
"She killed him just like that! .These people really are monsters."said the old man as he clutched his granddaughter in fear.Listen girl run run Away i'll stay here as a shield run before the shock wears off."Said the old man.
"Grandpa no."Shut up and go."The girl nodded her head about to run off but the woman appeared directly in the crowd and grabbed her by the neck."You'll do nicely."
"Let go of my granddaughter you devil i won't let you people take another member of my family."The old man dashed at the woman but was soon trampled over by the people who started to run.
"Jenna no!"Die you old geezer how dare you to interfere with my judgment one chosen by god"All the people who were running in fair stopped as rec malicious voudaju washed over the area.
"Why can't i move these people all deserve to die!"The man who said that head suddenly popped as everyone else wanted to scream but were too frightened to even utter a word.
A spike then flew from the girls finger straight towards the old man's neck."Grandpa No!"Jenna's hand was then rapped with yellow voudaju as she sent a voudaju created blade towards the woman's neck.
"Jenna you're a."Before the spike could pierce the old man's skull crimiya reappeared his corpse seemingly vanishing as he broke the spike and kicked the woman in the face sending her flying into a nearby building and grabbing jenna who was about to fall.
"Brat you're alive you're supposed to be dead."Well old man, if I fought her head on I would actually be dead because she has something I've seen multiple times and it's absolutely terrifying."
Crimiya's eyes narrowed as the lady got up brushing off her robe and fixing her veil."So you can see it my cardigan but how?asked the woman."You''re cardigan iv'e seen real cardigan one forged by you're god himself not fakes but what i want to know is why is a member of the tricksters cult attacking civilians"
"Oh you're confusing us with that other group sorry but let's just say our agendas differ."Well then I suppose that's my confirmation to kill you."Crimiya then placed Jenna on the ground as he stepped forward.
"Bold declaration boy do you really think you stand a chance against me?"No but if I stake everything on it I know I can because it's people like you who make my life worse!"
"Hearing crimiya's angry declaration the woman couldn't help but chuckle.Wevoudaju users are gods among men yet you seek the approval of these lowly mortals allowing your self to confine to their morality just like always the superior race will dominate and we are superior."
"Well then if you're superior why do you bleed."Well theirs this is called the menstrual cycle."You know that's not what I meant!"Shouted crimiya."Maybe you should be more clear because I haven't had my skin pierced in years."
"Oh really then what's that on your lip?"The woman suddenly wiped her lips as a smear of blood appeared on her hand.You may me bleed well. I was really hoping to get that girl but now no one can leave this place alive."
Hundreds of blades then rained down from the sky as Crimiya smirked.
"Where am I? What is that thing? Why does it have so many wings? Why am I being held by a red giant!"
