Prologue; page six

“I beg your pardon?” Yakuza asked half mocking half serious. Chitose didn’t wait any longer. She ran towards the girl passing Yakuza. Yakuza glanced at her as she passed him. Before reaching the girl she punched the ground. Once her fist hit the soft earth the ground under them cracked. The crack traveled quickly under the girl until the ground under her broke. The girl closed her eyes as she flipped up into the air. She landed behind the girl who spun around to punch. The girl moved slightly side-to-side dodging Chitose. Once Kuzi noticed the girl get ready to hit back he took out his katana. His hands shook a bit as he ran towards the girl. The girl’s eyes glimpsed at him as she jumped over his attack. Kuzi knew what was about to happen but it was happening too fast for him to stop it. He closed his eyes in fear of watching himself hurt Chitose. When he opened his eyes Chitose’s eyes were wide. But next to her was Yakuza who blocked Kuzi’s katana blade with his heavy sword. The girl smirked, now she was the one who was amused. Yakuza glared at what Kuzi thought was him but in actuality it was the girl behind him. Yakuza pulled away and stepped to the side of Kuzi. He blocked again as the girl tried attacking with her dagger. She smirked again playfully flipping off Yakuza’s blade. In the air she chanted something in a strange language as bits of fire fell off her large bow. The fire soon turned into many fire pixies. The fire pixies shoot out at them. Yakuza readied his weapon. Suddenly water shot out from behind them and poured over the flaming fairies. Yakuza slowly turned around to see the girl he was suppose to protect standing up now. So it is true. She is an elemental priestess...the last one. Nami looked at the girl as her cat jumped on her shoulders. The girl cracked her neck and got ready. Chitose and Kuzi both stared at Nami. They never saw Nami use her powers before. The water from the lake was suddenly dancing around Nami’s young body. It seemed so alive more alive then anything else. “Why are you hurting my friends?” That’s when Nami noticed Yakuza. She blushed at the sight of him. He was drop dead gorgeous. “Lady Nami—” Chitose began to whisper. “So...you’re the Warlord’s little sister...” the girl paused walking over to her. “Don’t you touch her!” Chitose screamed running towards her. The girl’s eyes flashed red. Yakuza noticed this and ran over to Chitose grabbing her as a red barrier emerged from the girl’s body. Thud. Yakuza fell on top of Chitose. Kuzi blinked at the sight of the two of them. The girl stopped in front of Nami, “Your brother...” her eyes narrowed, “Killed my sensei.” Nami looked at the girl. Kuzi looked away; knowing all too well how many people the warlord had killed.
