Shiki sighed looking sad,then blinked seeing the dent in the wall."Dason,Kimko,what happened here?"

"A man attacked Miss Abby not too long ago." Bason answered. "He and her must have met before."

Shiki sighed."yeah ... they have ...thats the man whos out to get rid of her",he mutterd."what a low life,attacking someone in a hospital"

"I'll say," Elliot said, studying the dent in the wall. "Whoever it was had considerable strength to make a dent like this."

Shiki nodded."yeah .... my question is why hes after Abby,Kimiko over there knows but wont say anything becasue Abby dosent want her to say anything ....."

At that time,Abby groaned and woke up yawning,looking to Xing,and frownned seeing no change.Then blinked seeing Elliot and Shiki."oh,hey there,howed the match go?"

"Shiki won," Elliot replied. "And....I'm sorry about what happened to your friend."

Abby frowed looking down."me too",she sai softly and then looked to her manical and jumped up."crap im gonna be late for my match if I dont leave now",she said looking to them."keep an eye on him,lets go Kimiko!",she said and took off out the door.

"Right,see you all after",Kimiko said with a grin and headed out behind Abby. 'I hope too see you all anywase',she thought to herself.

"Any idea who she's going up against?" Elliot asked.

Shiki looked to teh name."hmm Kongi Hotija .... ",he said calmly,then went into a book he had on the others in the tornament.His eyes widened slightly."crap",he mutterd growing.

Kojio looked to him."whats wrong Shiki?"

"She's going up against one of those creeps followers .... she'll be in one hell of a fight"

"I assume that is not good at all." Elliot replied. "You want me to go and keep an eye on the fight for you?"

"I wouldn't advise that, Elliot." Spire said.

"Why's that?" Elliot asked.

"Because you're sleep-deprived, that's why."

Shiki sighed."i agree,your better off , and safer ,here,when abby gets into a fight,your better off staying clear"

Elliot nodded. She looked to Xing. "Is there anything more the doctors, or anyone, can do for him?" She asked.

Shiki sighed."Abby tried a heling techniqe that makes wounds less life threatening ,not fully heal or anything,but enought t make sure th person does not die .... but ,it didnt work ... she must feel terrible",he said sighing.

"No doubt," Elliot said. She was silent for several moments before speaking again.

"I can try and heal him as well. It may not be much, as I'm no healer, but hopefully it'll help." She said.

Shiki looked to her."really?",he said happily."its worth a try"

Abby waited in a small forest area with Kimiko floating around. Hearing footsetps she looked and saw a boy woth slightly spiky green hair and hazel eyes walk towards her.He wore a black leather pants,black combat boot's,a grey,sightly torn mussel shirt and ared wrist bands."so your the one I'm faceing",Abby said coldly.

The boy laughed. "That I am ,I am Kongi,you must be Abby",he smerked."it will be a plesure running you into the ground for my master ... if you manage to win, I look forward to seeing him kill you"

Abby only rolled her eyes."yeah yeah,you and his whole army",Abby said anoyed.

The proctor showed up and signaled the start of the match.

Elliot nodded and approached the boy. He's only a kid, she thought sadly. From the looks of it, he couldn't even have been in high school yet. "Nala, I think I'm going to have to integrate with your for this one."

"That's what I was thinking too." Nala replied. She changed into spirit flame mode so Elliot could integrate with her. Once she had, she placed her hands upon Xing's chest and closed her eyes.

Shiki watched hopefully.

Elliot and Nala had her eyes closed, and she was muttering something under her breath as she did so. As she muttered, she sensed that Abby's healing spell had taken an effect, but it was slow to catch on. So, Elliot/Nala just....sped it up a bit. She used some of her mana to give the spell the extra power to begin to do its work. When this was done, she opened her eyes and de-integrated with Nala.

"Well, that should have an effect now." Elliot said.

Shiki watched closely.Abby had,in a sence did the same thing,but it had no effect,so he was doutfull ,but still hopped at leats.

"What are the injuries you absorbed this time?" Spire asked.

"None." Elliot replied. "All me and Nala did was give that healing spell from earlier a little....boost. My guess is because of the severity of his wounds, it wasn't having the effect it should have. I pumped in a little extra juice to get it to do whatever job it's supposed to."

Shiki smiled some then looked out the window seeing a giant flash of white light coming from a forest area."man Abby is pissed",he mttered.

"I'll have to agree with you on that." Elliot replied. "By the way, have you ever been unlucky enough to have her pissed off at you?"

"As if you haven't done the same?" Spire asked.

"Oh shut up."

Shiki laughed nervously."luckly no,came close to makeing her extreamly mad"

((I'm stuck))

(LOL I was too for a while. I'm putting Abby's fight thing in now ... and it does make it harder when one of your characters are in a coma XD ))

When the start of the battle was signaled, Kongi and Abby, emediately readyied thier weapons. For Kongi it was a spiked ball attached to a long tick Chain. For Abby it was two sameri sowrds,that would come into one sword with two blades. (im atempting to draw it lol so I can show you it)

Yukina then put her spirit energy into the swords,with a small flash it became one sword with two blade's. Then went into her fighting stance. Though her sholder was in pain.

Kongi laughed.”well well,your not a terrible fighter after all .... if your this good,why didn't you protect your friend better?”

Abby growled.”excuse me?”,she asked in a cold tone.

Kongi smirked.'I herd that you mouthed off to Fuast and he was gonna go after you,but your friend ,Xing is it?brought out his full power and then lost horibely ,and hes now in the hospital dieing? My my , if your not carefull,my master may go after all your friends if he wants you ....so you almost get one killed,and now indager more?heh not a good friend ,are you?”,he said ,toying with her emotions. Swinging his ball and chain at her.

Abby was hit on the side and grolwed holding it in pain,her eyes became dark and cold.”s-shut up! Don't you think I know that its my fault!”,she yelled.,he sword glowling.She glanced up at Kimiko.”Kimiko,into the double blades...hurry”, she muttered.

Kimiko nodded then went into spirit flame mode,and quickly went into the sword,makeing its glow brighter.

The two of them began clashing it out. Kongi getting hits in,but ,not as much as the now enraged Abby. A loud crack of thunder was herd over head as lighting flashed and rain began to poor down. Abby stood,some blood coming from the wounds. A glow came around her,a light blue aura sourounding her. She lfted the sword up hight,the aura wraping around the sword.”rage of sairu”,she muttered and swung the sword .A large blu blast rushed towards Kongi .There was a giant flash of light,(the one Elliot and Shiki saw). The battle was over ,Abby had one.

Kogi,after a moment stood stareing at her.”there ... there is somethig seriously wrong with you”.he mutterd,but smirked. “My master will be pleassed”,he said softly and left with out a word.

When the Pocter was also gone,Abby sighed and droped to the ground.everything in her hurting.

Kimiko floated over her.”Abby?Abby your hurt,I ... I'll ho find someone”,she said turinging to haed for the hospital.

“NO!”,Abby yelled and sat her self up.”no .. its okay....I'll be fine”,she said useing a tree to stand her self up”besides,Im not going back to the hopital,r home,I need to stay away from them”,she muttered and started walking the oppisit way.

Kimiko blinked following her.”Abby ... dont let that baka convince you it was your fault,they'll all worry.... you cant just leave”,Kimiko said trying to convince her.'besides were would you stay?”
Abby smiled.”its okay ,I have a plan ,besides you can go stay with them until I need you,just dont tell them where U am”,she said softly.

Kimiko sighed and followed Abby,now worried about her ingeries,and the fact she did not want to be around others anymore. In fear of them getting hurt or worse
