Chapter 6

True Colours

-She housed an anger that burnt deep in her veins; soaked in brilliant vermilion blood. An anger that could take over, with a drop of the tainted blood spilt from its container.-

------

Heian stood in front of her master, shielding him. She felt rage build up in her body just looking at that woman.

“What are you doing here!?” Heian shouted at her,

She was standing gracefully over Cyril, protecting the small boy. The brilliant coloured wings that was shielding her started to fade, allowing the sunlight to re-enter the crumbling building. The students that were in the gym had all fainted due to the intense energy emitted by each servant.

“Nice to see you again, kid.” The woman smiled pleasantly,

“Sakane!” Heian yelled again,

She ignored the furious yells that departed from Heian’s mouth and simply turned around to care for her master. He wasn’t unconscious, but was paralysed by shock. His blank eyes stared at the woman; he felt a sickness utter deep in his stomach.

“Are you okay, master?” She asked in a soft reassuring tone,

He suddenly started to blink uncontrollably, making sure he wasn’t dreaming. He suddenly felt his brain pound rapidly causing him to lose his balance, everything started to twist and turn, he felt the world spin like a roller coaster. And in a split second all the pain escaped freely as he fell to the ground; unconscious. Sakane closed her eyes then reopened them to stand in a graceful position facing the young girl.

“Seems there’s no avoiding affliction.” Sakane gave a dangerous stare,

Ikari stood behind Heian, excited. He took a few steps back.

“Go ahead,” He said, allowing his servant to release her anger out.

Heian smirked, “Ready? I’ll show you my true colours!”

Sakane readjusted herself into a fighting position and waited for the girl to attack carelessly, but was met with a hard fist jabbed into her cheek. She was extremely confused, it seemed that Heian was remarkably fast. Sakane felt blood trickle from her smiling mouth, she repositioned herself once more and stood ready for another blow.

Heian ran fast towards her opponent and before clashing head on she jumped high into the air and falling as fast as she ran. A knife occupied her hand and locked onto Sakane’s neck; she landed swiftly next to the valkery and jolted her knife towards Sakane. But it never met, the metal knife was sliced into two and a strike of scourge followed. Heian willingly took the hit, allowing blood to surface and escape her wound. A sudden burst of energy tore the atmosphere, drowning the room in corrupt fury. Heian was nowhere to be seen, only heard of. Footsteps bounced off every crumbling wall, she was everywhere hitting Sakane with all the rage built up inside. Heian held a blood-covered knife in her hands as she finally stopped her constant afflictions on her opponent.

Sakane stood still, she felt pain all over but no blood escaped yet. It had only been 15 seconds since Heian went berserk, and suddenly blood flew everywhere. Blood escaped from every cut on her body, she felt herself fall to the floor in a defeat. She could barely hear the victorious laughter escape the cursed girls lips, she didn’t want to hear them at all. Sakane rested on the floor allowing blood to stream out of her, an annoyed look painted on her face. She didn’t want to actually show her true potential.

“Chh,- Looks like I have no choice.” Sakane sighed, interrupting the flow of laughter

Heian stared at the valkery, surprised and angered.

Sakane steadily stood up, balancing herself before repositioning herself into a dance-like stance. A weapon started to faze into her hands, slowly revealing a gleaming ebony coloured whip. Blood stopped escaping from her body as her cuts started to heal and with that a smile replaced the almost permanent grin.

“Kids,” She broke the silence,

She snapped her whip around as piercing fiery arrows flew from each hit. Caught unexpectedly Heian felt a few arrows stab through her shoulder and sides, she let out a small cry of pain in response. Heian looked up at the now dominant opposition, and somewhat smirked in response.

“You’re a Bitch you know?” She practically spat,

“What does that make you?” The valkery retorted, smiling.

She was somewhat silenced, and annoyed with the joking woman. She looked back at her master whom was standing normally, housing a rather disappointed and angered look. She felt herself break inside, she wanted to fulfil her masters wishes, as does every servant.

He just stared at her, with a look of pity.

She hated how he underestimated her, she wanted to be more than just a servant looking like a teen. So she had to resort to that, in order to prove her strength. She reluctantly repositioned herself into a strange yet dangerous looking stance, the atmosphere in response immediately tore in strong killing intent.

Sakane was astonished; the amount of energy this girl housed was surprising.

Ikari grinned, he remembered watching her suffer as she released her God before. The amount of blood she lost was close to death than fatal, he hated how she was easily annoyed. Of course she was strong and he knew that, but the way she put her strength to use was disappointing.

“Heian.” He paused, as did she. “Stop it,” He ended, in a sad yet still serious tone.

She felt angered, sad and underestimated. But being the servant she was, she immediately stopped the deathly force escape her. The atmosphere fell from gasping for air to peace and serenity. And within those few seconds of grace the two servant and master fled, leaving Sakane with an unconscious Cyril.

“You are strong.” A voice chimed from across the gym,

A familiar female figure stood at the entrance, smiling oddly. Sakane’s head shot from her master to the entrance, staring at the girl in which she encountered from before.

“Rikku’s the name, Rikku Valentine.”
