So, at this point we've split up, kinda.
Abby and I.
We don't talk much anymore.
But I plan to continue this!
I'm not giving up on this story!
Mia..I guess she belongs to me now. I hate to say that, but now that I don't have her support on this story, I have to do this by myself.
I do not own Super Smash Bros! I only own my OCs!
That's kind of a scary thing to say at this point...
Also, might notice a few references from a certain anime...
Just saying. :3
These were by accident without me realizing it.
Chapter 3: Confusion Sets In
"How long until he'll wake up?" Jackie asks as she rubs her eyes from the lack of sleep she got.
Her butler stood by the bed, his back turned to her as he check for a fever. The boy actually happened to be a young man which ended up confusing the crap out of her. He happened to have short blonde hair and his clothing was all muddy and had a few torn spots located in it. Cian was getting the clothes washed while always taking care of him after the whole incident during the middle of the night.
"He should wake up soon my lady." He said. "His fever has past and should make a full recovery."
Jackie sighed with relief, putting her hand on her chest.
"Thank you for keeping an eye on him Cian. I was so busy this morning that I couldn't check up on him."
"What kind of butler would I be if I couldn't do what my lady wishes?" Cian bows before he left the room without another word.
Once she heard the door close softly she took a deep breath. She sat down on the couch that was across from the bed and rubbed her face.
"I can't believe they don't know what happened to mom's body." She murmured. "No one can't find it. Why would someone take her body? The casket wasn't even opened..."
Her attendant Sarah has been looking with her but she hasn't been able to find anything, including her father who was busy at the company. The police are involved and everything was already getting crazy.
Aqua was having issues.
Like thinking issues.
She could tell her brother was avoiding her for some reason but she didn't want to bother him about it. It's weird some times because when she walks by his room to get to hers he can hear him talking, like to someone else in the room but when she listens it's like no one is there with him. Then again people do talk to themselves to relieve stress and other thoughts on their mind.
Aqua for some reason could not figure out the strange occurrences happening around them. She noticed that a lot of people are talking about accidents, and death, and injuries that mostly involve explosions, or damages to buildings that harm people. Ever since that car accident, one thing has been getting stranger by the next.
When she made it to her room she was surprised to see that something was off about it once she walked in. Nothing changed in there, her bed was made neatly, her clothes were folded and put away, and the floor was sparkling clean. What was it that was giving her an odd feeling?
She walked towards her bed and reached under it, pulling out what seemed to be a strange book. It was covered in a leather binding and it looked really old. She blew off the dust on it and opened it to only find a strange language in there. When she flipped to the next page, she was stunned as a bright light came out of no where and suddenly and surprisingly knocked her unconscious.
The man that was in the bed was actually waking up and that surprised Jackie for a second because she wasn't expecting him to yawn loudly.
"Well, this is not where I expected to end up." He said, glancing over at Jackie. "Hey there."
"Uh, hi." She responded, unsure of what to say to him. Sarah happened to enter the room a few minutes ago and was sitting beside Jackie.
"Who are you?" Jackie asked as the man smiled.
"My name is Kou." He stretched his arms over his head and Jackie noticed how toned his body was. She blushed, looking away from him. "And it seems like I stumbled onto your home. Sorry about that."
"Your name is Kou Danta." Sarah suddenly spoke, making the two glance at her. She had a piece of paper in her hands as she reads off the list.
"What the hell, since when did you get that?!" Kou exclaimed in shock. "And how do you know that?"
"Says here that you don't have a home for yourself but by looking at you, you don't seem homeless." Sarah explained.
"I'm not really homeless, I'm just a travel goer! I look at all sorts of sights, kinda." Kou grabbed his now clean shirt and placed it on. "I'm not as young as I look either."
"Says your 19."
"I'm 21." Kou glanced away from them with a small grin. "Well in human years anyway."
Sarah and Jackie raised a brow.
"You're not human?" Jackie asked him surprised.
"That's right."
"I don't believe you."
Kou looked like he got shot in the chest when he heard her say that. He was stunned that she didn't believe him, then again it's not normal you hear that someone's not human.
"Maybe you'll believe me if I tell you this, Jackie Underwood." Kou stood up from the bed to look at her. "There are four idiots that are the reason why you're mother's body is gone. They took her body out with their magic and left it for inspectors to figure it out but they can't. They left not trace of themselves to give any hints that it was them."
Jackie was stunned that he knew her name at all or that her mother's body was missing.
"Who are you?" She asked.
"I told you, I'm Kou. But really I'm a kitsune, an assistant really to the lords." He snapped his fingers and suddenly a cloud of white appeared out no where and then disappeared seconds later to reveal something even more unreal.
Jackie's eyes widen at the ears on the top of his head and then large tail behind him.
Sarah on the other hand with no expression was surprised herself, but didn't show it. She adjusted her glasses and sat down on the couch beside Jackie.
"Explain yourself." She tells him.
"Alright, but you're not gonna like how it's going to end." He takes a deep breath. "There's a hidden legend, but it's never been written in any manuscript or book. It's all hidden for the sake of the world. The humans on Earth are protected by four people with the powers to alter the world. The Four Lords of the World."
"The Four Lords?" Jackie repeated, recalling she heard that from somewhere but she can't remember.
Kou nodded his head.
"That's right. The Four Lords have ultimate powers that only can be sensed by people with the similar aura in their hearts. Very few humans with little power of immortality. There's the water, fire, wind, and darkness, and they represent the entire world. If they become one person their power is unstoppable." He stops to take a deep breath from his story. "Jackie, when I sensed you, I wasn't at sure at first if it was true or not, but you have one of the powers and you really needed to know that this actually effects you."
Kou reached out and grabbed Jackie's hand to make her stand up.
"Me?" She said confused, taking her hand back.
"Yes, you have the power of the Fire Lord, Kuris. She can wield the power of fire and has the strongest powers out of all of the lords."
Aqus wasn't liking the changes as much as others were. He wasn't eating properly too as his health was effecting the tone of his body. He didn't even attend practice for a couple of days as he called his coach to tell him he was feeling a bit under the weather even though the only thing on his mind was his mysterious power.
He couldn't hear that voice anyone for some odd reason. It was like it disappeared on him even though multiple times he'd wish it would disappear, but at the same time not really. It was the only thing that was giving him any hints closer to his power, then again, he was talking to himself.
He was able to throw cars and mess with gravity but still, this was a crazy thing that he couldn't wrap around his head. It was bad enough that recently two people had died in the first accident of flying cars. And he was blaming himself for the anger he created that caused it.
But he knew the sadder he got over it, the worse his power would get towards people. He told himself that he would practice and yet, why did he decide to stop now? Was he scared of it or was he unsure of how to get along with this power that showed up out of no where?
He wished this could end right away so that his life wasn't changing like this anymore. He could not handle this mental stress going through his brain.
He laid there in his bed, thinking his life over and what he could do to either get rid of it, or get use to it without fear.
"It's easy to notice when a lord learns about their power is when the area around them is changing in a way that seems very odd and unknown just like your mother's disappearance, but that's not an of the lords doing's for sure. But I did hear that something been going on lately around the states. Most likely it has to be the Lord of Darkness, Alo, who can mess with gravity very well."
"How do we know who the lord is?" Jackie asked.
"The lords have the aura that we can sense if others have it as well, which we do." Kou snapped his fingers. "Oh, and I forgot to mention one last thing. The Lords of the World are usually related by blood, so most likely you would have a relative who's a lord. But it can be possibly that one of them is related to you that you probably don't know that existed at all."
"It's a race against time if we don't find them right?"
"Correct." Kou answered. "Since I traveled from the top of the United States I've come downwards and sensed two lords in this state of Florida. You and someone else located in the same area."
"What about the last two?"
"If I can guess correctly by my senses, I believe they are farther out west of the United States. California most likely."
"Welp, looks like I'm in for some hell." Jackie muttered.
"Oh yeah, there's one more thing I forgot to tell you." Kou remembered. "And this one has to stay a secret between us," He puts a finger up to his lips. "Or else it wouldn't turn out very well for everyone, m~kay?"
Well, I have no words for this chapter. This took so long to work on. I maybe rewrote this a good amount of times and changed the story a lot to make sure it made a lot of sense.
And now there are things happening, Jackie meets Kou who's a kitsune, nothing of Mia right now but she'll show up in the next chapter, Aqua is missing, and Aqus is emotional stress over his power.
Yeah, so as you can tell something big is about to happen, that will hopefully bring the smashers in for once so they can have some action. I know Aqua will in the next chapter.
Hopefully it won't take me a month to update! Bye for now!
