Chapter 15: Two Week Plan.

As Igar tries to recover he is watched and aimed by a jelous assasin. Can he recover to stop him?

Nabak: die Igar!

*a crossbow forms from a crystal in his hand and fires
a bolt straight to Igars head. Igar still unfocused
strangely senses the danger and with now red eyes he
turns to the bolt coming at him and sends a wave of
green energy to it shattering it and seemingly melting
it away. Nabak yelps as Igar's gaze is set on him.*

Nabak: no.. no! you cant... your supposed to be weakened!

*as igar focuses his gaze Nabak tries again aiming his crossbow
but Igar reacts quickly and seems to send a pulse in the air from
his eyes that shatters Nabak's crossbow and destroys his crystal.
Nabak yelps and pulls back as the crystal drops and dissipates giving
out black smoke. Nabak looks stunned to Igar and panics*

Nabak: what... what the hell did you just do?! how come I am sensing
so much malice?! this is... impossible..

*a voice calls from behind another door near Igar*

???: Igar! Igar!

*he blinks as his eyes change back to blue and the aura fades then looks as
Ellia walks into the room along with the other girls but suddenly falls passing out
 Ellia and the girls rush to his side. Nabak shivers and waves his
hands on the other side of the door and softly speaks still afraid*

Nabak: m-my Ellia... no.. hes a monster.. m-monster! he will.. kill... you!

*seemingly from having his crystal broken and sheer terror, Nabak passes out looking as
Igar is helped up by the girls and brought out of the room.*

*as they walk down the hallways with an exhausted Igar, the servants and others step
aside to let them through. Some of the guests seem to gawk at the situation*

Guest 1: is he the young man from yesterdays battle?

Guest 2: yes the peasant boy.

*Ellia winced a bit and softly flared up a bit from their gawking*

Guest3: it was a fluke from what I heard. The boy cheated. He used weapons
that were illegal.

Guest 1: is that true? I thought their was something strange about him.

Guest 2: what do you expect from a mongrel peasant? hes just a vagrant above
gods.

*Ellia twitched a bit and moved a little to head towards the guest but
Reim tugged Igar and Ellia away as she as well carried him*

Reim: Ellia its okay their not worth it.

*she looked to Reim angry at the guests but nodded*

Ellia: yes.. I know but they..

*a yell was heard from one of the guests*

Guests 2: hwaah!... let go of me.. what are you doing?!

*Ellia and Reim looked as Vira gripped one of the guests by his shirt
and pulled him down to her face glaring into his eyes.*

Vira: you sure do like to say that a lot don't you? Who are you to insult our
finest fighter!?

*Ellia and Reim yelped as they stopped and shook their head to Vira*

Reim: no! Vira calm down we dont... hey! Lania!

*Lania blinked and shook her head as a female guest had her dress over her head and was
angrily complaining muffled. She shook her head*

Lania: it wasnt me! she didnt listen to the cant say anything nice rule!

*Reim sighed*

Reim: stop it! we cant get in trouble right now! hurry up and help me carry him.

*a voice in the back of the hall was heard*

Duke Rosarade: whats going on here?!

*they blinked looking over and all the girls shivered*

Reim: yipes!

Vira: uh-oh..

Lania: we've been spotted!

Ellia: lets make a run for it with Igar!

*they quickly started to carry Igar faster as Lania and Vira grabbed his
legs then rushed away back to the yard leaving Duke Rosarade in confusion
he then looked to the guests and blinked*

Duke Rosarade: what? what in the world happened here? Elliaaa!!!

*by then they had made their way to the yard. Halfway to their hideout they
stopped and set Igar down to catch a breath.*

Reim: phew.. too close..

*Ellia nodded*

Ellia: we should avoid daddy for now, at least until dinner.

*Vira shook her head*

Vira: I dont see any wrong in what we did. We were just mingling with
the guests.

*Reim shook her head and frowned a bit*

Reim: that wasnt mingling if ive seen it..

*Lania smirked*

Lania: a little more mingling from her and it would have been a mangling!

*Vira growled as Lania laughed. Ellia looked to them smiling and laughed a bit*

Ellia: still its a good thing Balter told us where Igar was.. still did you feel it?

*they looked to her a bit quietly*

Reim: hmm.. you mean that dense feeling of dark?

*Vira nodded*

Vira: I felt that.. but their was more to it.. it was in the ballroom
before we got there.

*Ellia nodded*

Ellia: could it have been.. Igar?

*Lania poked Igars face and shook her head*

Lania: nope, no darkness here!

*Vira growled*

Vira: stop that! pay attention Lania.

*she looked a bit to Vira then kept poking as Reim waved to Vira*

Reim: its fine let her do as she wants, still we may not have known
what the source of that darkness was but I did feel a strange aura fading
from him.

*they looked to Igar and slowly walked over to look at him*

Ellia: I dont see it.. but your right. when we were first lifting him up I felt
like some sort of strange feeling.

*Vira smirked*

Vira: sure that wasnt you?

*Ellia blushed and glared to Vira*

Ellia: d-dont be dumb! you know what I mean! you felt it too!

*Reim nodded as Ellia huffed*

Reim: quit picking on her Vira, I felt it too though. Sort of nostalgic.

*Lania blinked*

Lania: Nostalgic? Nosferatu? is he a nostril vampire?

*they looked to her confused*

Ellia: Lania?.. you sure you studied your vocabulary well in school?

*Reim shook her head*

Reim: Not nostrel or nostferatu! Nostalgic.. like a feeling we felt before.

*Vira shrugged*

Vira: It did feel like that but.. it was a little more..

*a voice was heard behind the girls*

???: little more what?

*they blinked and looked as Duke Renning stood in front of them.*

*Vira yelped and covered her mouth shyly waving her hand*

Vira: huh? duke Renning? umm.. no I didnt say anything!

*Lania rushed to him and hopped in his arms and hugged him*

Lania: daddy dont get mad! we wernt planning anything naughty!

*Ellia and Reim yelped as Vira peeped*

Ellia: what?!

Reim: what are you talking about Lania!

*he smiled and laughed a bit*

Duke Renning: your too little to say that Lania, besides here in the open? what makes you
think that it would be okay?

*Reim groaned as Ellia and Vira both closed their eyes silently blushing*

Reim: please dont carry this along.. its getting.. embarrassing.

*Lania moved to speak but he spoke first*

Duke Renning: hold on Lania, lets try to focus now on the topic im here for.

*She blinked and nodded*

Lania: okay! is it that were in trouble? because the lady wanted to eat her trouser dress.

*he smirked*

Duke Renning: no but im sure the lady did.. at any rate you all know the finals are two days from now
right?

*they nodded calmly*

Reim: yes but ive heard that Igar being here might change a few of the votes.

*he nodded*

Duke Renning: yes thats right! you are very smart Reim.

*She blinked and blushed turning her head*

Reim: d-dont flatter me!

*Ellia and Vira looked to her blushing*

Ellia: she really does blush from flattery.

Vira: beet red.

*Reim glared to them as they turned away and whistled softly*

Duke Renning: well at any rate, Igar is "special" and so its been
pushed back to two weeks.

*Ellia blinked*

Ellia: really? two weeks? that must make people upset.

*he nodded*

Duke Renning: tell me about it, you father almost threw a fit
at the officials from across the other states. If it wasn't for Duke
Val's idea then we would have been debating for hours!

*Vira looked to him curiously*

Vira: my father? what did he say?

*he smiled looking to her*

Duke Renning: your all going to relax for half a week.

*Vira blinked*

Vira: r-relax? like what?

*He smirked as a grin lit across his face*

Duke Renning: dont get too relaxed, after that a week of training by
all of us Dukes.

*they blinked looking surprised and stunned*

Ellia: t-training?

Reim: personally?

Vira: by all four dukes?!

*Duke Renning smiled*

Duke Renning: dont be sad! it will be fun! we will go to Lienvale!

*Lania blinked as she smiled excited*

Lania: Really!? Lania wants to go to Lienvale! To the amusement park!

*Ellia blinked looking down a bit*

Ellia: w-well.. we could use a break.. the stores there were wonderful
at clothes.

*Reim sighed*

Reim: fathers gonna hassle me about finding clothes.. although new electronics are enticing.

*Vira groaned*

Vira: clothes or not.. im really not happy about this.. why wait? I would rather train!

*he shook his head*

Duke Renning: come now Vira, dont you want to taste the new foods they have?

*Vira blinked*

Vira: ehh?! New? what food are we talking about here?

*she blinked and covered her mouth*

Vira: where did that come from... but id rather train still.

*Duke Renning smirked*

Duke Renning: its okay to be excited Vira, besides with the training we have for you all
you may want to relax as best you can.

*Reim looked to him curiously*

Reim: you mean what by that?

*He grinned again*

Duke Renning: stage two training, your all going to go up in power, on par with the finalists. Maybe more.

*they looked to him surprised*

Ellia: s-stage two?.. the one we tried before the elegant royal started?!

*Reim growled*

Reim: have you lost it?! umm Sir.. we tried to reach it last time and we almost got killed.

*Vira nodded*

Vira: im.. im not afraid.. its just.. a full harmony.. it takes years to master.

*he nodded and waved his hand*

Duke Renning: you are all ready, you know it. My little girl here has already awakened stage two.

*they blinked looking in surprise at Lania as she looked to them confused*

Lania: do I have something on my face? stop staring at my chest!

*Duke Renning shook his head*

Duke Renning: Lania, isnt it true you can go mega mega two?

*She blinked looking up at him and nodded*

Lania: mega mega two? yes? but cant everyone?

*Duke Renning looked to the girls*

Duke Renning: Lania happened to had done this two days before she started fighting in
the Elegant Royale. Mega Master Kengus were on that day too.

*Lania smiled*

Lania: mega mega Master kengu! fight fight boom!

*Reim blinked*

Reim: remarkable.. but why didnt she use it in the fight with the boon family?

*Lania looked to her a bit coldly*

Lania: their too weak! id probobly have killed them.

*Reim blinked*

Reim: h-huh?! Lania?

*she blinked and looked to Reim*

Lania: what? you want to be mega mega two?

*Reim blinked even more confused at Lania's shift but then focused on Duke Renning*

Reim: what makes us even qualified to reach it?

*Duke Renning shook his head*

Duke Renning: qualified? your almost there. All of you. The battle today showed that.

*they focused on him a bit then looked to themselves*

Duke Renning: dont worry! im sure you felt it from both Igar and that other girl, hmm Ito.. aw
well.

*they blinked looking to Igar*

Ellia: Igar can do it too?

*Reim nodded*

Reim: of course.. that speed was part of his movement.

*Duke Renning shook his head*

Duke Renning: No like I said he's special. Thats why hes training for both weeks.

*they blinked and looked to Duke Renning*

Ellia: what?! hes going to train for both weeks?

Vira: thats not fair!

Reim: why does he need to do that?

*Duke Renning sighed and sat down still holding Lania*

Duke Renning: well im not supposed to say much but...

*they moved closer and sat in front of Duke Renning as all the girls focused on him*

Duke Renning: Igar.. might be a Star clan member.

*they blinked silently then all the girls gasped*

Ellia: S-star clan?! how is that possible?!

Reim: THE star clan?! the one that made crystals?

Lania: descendant of an ancient legend! he rises!

Vira: thats impossible! their dead right?

*Duke Renning grinned*

Duke Renning: haven't you wondered how he was able to do those impressive things? Hes
no Ukage or ninja hero master, the star clan is a mystery to most but Duke Tolhm thinks
he is one. Im sure you girls have noticed the star birthmark he has on him.

*Ellia blinked looking to him*

Ellia: I dont see it.

*he smiled*

Duke Renning: you cant tell me you haven't peeped in on him changing have you? or outright told him to
change in front of you.

*they blushed and shook their head*

Ellia: what!? that's.. that's despicable!

Reim: deplorable.

Vira: and downright tasteless.

*He laughed*

Duke Renning: hahaha you girls are still the same. That talk doesn't make you fit in with these kind here.
But then again that's whats needed.

*Ellia growled*

Ellia: ive always hated dinner partys.

*Reim nodded*

Reim: making other people do such embarrassing and disgusting things for money.

*Vira agreed*

Vira: its sad that people could do that. Still can we get back to topic?

*He nodded*

Duke Renning: right then, where was I?.. oh yes star clan. Well when Duke Tolhm suggested he was one, the other
nation representatives were out to claim or kill him..
