The Book of Desires-Chapter 5

Chapter 5

Saek had gotten enraged at having been fooled by this Naruto incarnate. There was sand everywhere when Gaara has disappeared meaning that Gaara could be anywhere. Saek stood still and waited for the desert ninja to come out of the sand, then he'd counter attack. He heard a small muffled sound from the sand, which showed Saek where the ninja was. He took his ebony gun out and shot at the sand. A poof of smoke came and the sand was no longer in sight, neither was the ninja. Gaara had been defeated. And because he was defeated the ninja disappeared and apparently went back into Cubone’s imagination.

“You sure are getting the hang of this book. I cannot let you live now that you know how to use it.” Saek said taking Ivory out and pointing it in the direction of Cubone’s head. Cubone squeezed the book tightly.

“Please come out... Ichigo!” Cubone thought in his head, imagining the soul reaper from one of the animes he has seen. What he received wasn't Ichigo. He received a massive headache. “Why isn't my wish coming true?” Cubone asked himself.

Saek laughed at Cubone and slightly put his gun down. “That all? One measly little conjuring and you're all bushed? At least TRY to amuse me” He laughed again and raised his Ivory gun up once more aiming for the head. “Bye-bye!” Saek said pulling the trigger and shot the gun.

“SHIELD! AID AND PROTECT!” came a female voice in the distance. A green luminescent shield appeared near Cubone right before the bullet had gone into his skull. Saek looked to the distance and saw two normal looking characters. One was a girl running up to Cubone and another was a boy trudging slowly behind her. “Water! Heed my call and come crashing down on my enemy!!!” the girl screamed once more. A bucket full of water came down on Saek, not enough to hurt him. “God! It didn't work!” the girl said getting much closer to Cubone by then. She looked a bit tired from casting too much.

She had fading blue hair that looked almost boyish. She had normal blue eyes that had a shine to them, but that was probably due to her personality. She wore what looked like a uniform for school, a black dress shirt with a red tie and a black skirt to match, she also wore shorts underneath the skirt.

“Hey, Meta, fight this guy! Pretty please?” the girl said giving the boy that was standing next to her the puppy dog eyes.

The boy had black hair that was as long as the girl’s hair, his hair was spiked up in the back though. He had pitch black eyes, but they didn't look like demon eyes, in fact they looked like normal black eyes. He wore the same style clothes as the girl; a black dress shirt with a red tie and black pants.” I don't like taking orders. I should be the one giving orders around here.” came the boys reply.

Saek became angry at the two characters and aimed his two guns at the pair. The boy took out a blade quickly and spun it around fast enough to deflect the bullets. He dashed toward Saek and said, “You shouldn't have done that” as he swung his blade. A tiny splotch of blood came out of Saek’s chest and he coughed some up. The boy was fast and effective. He looked at the boy, then at Cubone and had a defeated look as he turned around and ran away from them. The boy just stood in the same spot, not showing any desire to stop Saek.

“Why didn't you stop him?” Cubone asked holding his own head, getting over his headache slowly.

“I’ve got one person that cant fight at the moment and a girl who's used too much of her magic. I couldn't just leave you guys alone. It's a big city. You'd probably get caught by someone and killed. In fact, I'm almost certain.” came the boys reply upfront with little emotion.

“That makes the second person today who was after this book?” came the tired girl. Cubone remembered there were three people, at least to his knowledge. YoSo, Julie and Saek.

Cubone looked the two over. “So... why did you help me?”

The girl gasped a little and sprung up. “Oh! Yeah we haven't explained ourselves, huh?” she said looking at her companion who had no definite expression. “Heheheeee... we're knights of justice!” the girl said making a heroic pose. The boy next to her sighed and shook his head.

“Well...not really. But that'd be cool! You don't need to worry about us for now. We're not going to hurt you, believe me! In fact, that guy you summoned looked strong! I don't want to fight him!” the girl saw that that just made Cubone more nervous. “he he! My names Sunshine! This is my friend Metazoxan! You can just call him Meta though.” She introduced them to make Cubone a bit more relaxed but Cubone still wasn't convinced the two were good. He didn't have any allies, and now that he knows when he summons something, he has side effects he'd need companions more than ever.

“I can believe in you for now. But I'm watching you two carefully. I’ve got to beat those guys and give this book back to Vapen! I can’t waste time worrying.” Cubone said holding the book tight in his arms. A look of sadness on his face. “I wonder how he is..” he thought.
