Angel Protector Chapter 9: Melissa

"Hey Ayumi have you been listening to a word I've been saying?"
"Huh? Oh sorry Sakura what were you saying?"
(Rolls eyes) "I was asking you whether you were free after school today."
"Oh I have something I have to do today, sorry Sakura."

Ayumi smiled sheepishly at Sakura but her mind was thinking of what Sera had told her. She clutched the star shaped stone that Scyra was in. She had made it into a necklace and it hung around her neck. Scyra had returned to the stone for now. She tried to recall Sera's words.

"You need to practice your magic with Scyra. I'll meet you at the hill near your house after school to train you."

As the minutes went by like what seemed like eternity, the bell finally rung for dismissal. Ayumi grabbed her bag and rushed out of the class before Sakura could even say bye to her. Sakura wondered why she was in such a hurry but didn't give much thought to it and went home.

"Sera where are you?"
"You're finally here; try to call out Scyra."
"Come out Scyra."
"Eh he's not coming out?"

After several more attempts, Sera finally said something.

"You can't just say it and expect him to come out. You need to learn how to communicate with him even when he is in the stone."
"Concentrate now, will him to come out."

Ayumi takes a deep breath and tries again.
"Scyra, come out"

The stone glows and Scyra appears flapping his wings in mid air.

"Is it time for your lesson already?"
"Why don't you explain some of your basic powers to her Scyra?"
"Ok my powers are separated into, offensive, defensive and supportive; the stronger the magic the longer the spell and energy needed."
"This is so complicated."(Eyes getting dizzy)

Sera nods his head in agreement and says.
"But if you and your familiar fully bond. You won't have to say the full spell anymore, just the name of the spell, am I right?"
"Yes, that's why we must train hard Ayumi; you won't be the only one going though this. We can each fight individually after we've trained hard enough too.”

"Tell me some other spells besides freezing wind."
"Wind rejection is the most basic defensive spell. It creates a wall of wind around you that will blow away any enemies near you."
"That sounds so cool!! Hurry and teach me!"
"Close your eyes and just put 1 hand forward."
"I'll pretend to attack you to test the spell." Says Sera

Ayumi does as he says and prepares herself to say the spell.

"Power of the wind, become my wall, give me your protection."

As Ayumi says this, she feels herself surrounded by what seemed like a calm wind. Her long hair starts to flutter in the wind. Sera charges at her and prepares to make a false strike.

Ayumi opens her eyes and says, "Wind rejection!"
As the sword of Sera was about to land, something blocked it and overpowered him, blowing him back some distance.

"What amazing power. It"s only a basic spell too." Thought Sera
"Sera are you ok?!"

Ayumi runs to him in a hurry.
"Don’t worry I’m fine. You're a fast learner aren't you? Don't you agree Scyra?"
"Not many people can learn spells in 1 try, some even faint after managing to do it."
"That's because I have good teachers." Smiles Ayumi

They practiced the spell a few more times before deciding to go back. Scyra returns to his stone and Sera walks beside Ayumi. The sky had already turned dark with the night and someone was watching them.

Just when they turned around a corner, Sera was suddenly trapped in a whip. He struggled to break free but the whip restricted his movements too much.

"Sera!!"
"Who’s there?"

A figure of a lady could be seen flying down holding the whip that trapped Sera. As her silhouette lit up against the light of the full moon, Sera stared in shock at who it was. Ayumi saw his face that was in horror. It was a lady with black angel wings and she wore a tight black armour. She had long black hair with a tinge of dark purple and her eyes burned with the color of blood red.

"Who’s that Sera?"
"It's the right hand lady of Lucifer the fallen one, Melissa"
"Ahahaha, that's right Sera, I've come to kill you and the girl."

Sera struggled more to free himself but felt himself grow weaker. Melissa held him in front of him and kissed him. He felt himself losing control over his body and mind.

"This wouldn't be fun if I just killed both of you so soon, so I'm just going to let you both kill each other!"

"Scyra, come out!!"

Melissa started laughing and Sera took out his swords and rushed towards Ayumi.
