The Storm

Ane and Lisa were soaring down and lightning struck at them. "Crap." Ane thought. A hand of magma grasped them; shielding them from the bolt. Ene stood on the ground below; hand outstretched as the magma and face filled with terror. 

"I....used it." he thought; gulping. The magma reformed into his shaky hand and he fell to his knees in shock.

"Ene!" Eina yelled; approaching him. Ane and Lisa landed and Ane immediately let the girl go.

"You okay?" he asked.

"Y-yeah." Lisa stuttered.

"I'll handle the rest." Ane said reassuringly.

"But.." Lisa began but Ane turned to her and eyed her lovingly and she blushed.

"You don't need to fight. I'll take care of this." Ane remarked. Lisa nodded; holding back subtle tears. Eina observed quietly. The lion man chuckled and Ane frowned back.

The lion man flashed to Ane; a large battle axe surging with electricity risen high in it's hands. "Crap." Ane thought as he barely managed to watch the creature who's giant body loomed over him as the blow came crashing down. Ane phased away and the axe struck into the ground. "I barely avoided that that even with X3 speed." Ane thought; spitting blood to then notice blood filling his chest area. "Hm." he thought before the lion swung another axe sideways at him. "Strength Adjustment X3." Ane thought before clapping his hands to the side of the blade. Ane dug his feet into the ground; causing a crater as the terrain shattered. Ane coughed more blood as he fell to one knee. "Even with that amount of strength." he thought; hands trembling. The electricity in the blade surged through Ane snorted blood before falling back dizzily. The lion man swung his first blade into the teen who flung away lifelessly; blood sprinkling everywhere. 

"Ane!" Lisa screamed; running forward but Sid held her.

"Don't be foolish." he warned. Ane summoned his dragon blade and dug it in front of him as he was groveling on the ground; bleeding away. The lion man rose his battle axes with a deadly gaze and Ane looked back; seeing the chained man's dragon eye through the beast. 

"Electric Style: Lightning Storm!" the lion roared. Lightning bolts barraged Ane all at once.

"Am I.....gonna die?" Ane thought.

"Ahhhh." Faith said as she stretched in a hot tub; naked. Lana stared at the woman quietly and Faith smiled. "Wanna feel them?" she asked; indicating her breasts. Lana went red and and nodded slowly. Faith held Lana's hand and led it to her breast. As Lana's hand made contact; Faith moaned teasingly and Lana pulled away; yelping. Faith laughed. "You're so adorable and easy to tease." she remarked; closing one eye. Lana pouted and looked away. Faith gently patted Lana on the head and the two sat there silently. "You're thinking about him aren't you?" Faith inquired softly.

"Yeah." Lana replied; smiling. "I hope they're all okay." she then added.

"I hope so too." Faith said as she looked out the window. "Seems rain is coming." she said as winds blew across the night. Lana blew bubbles in the water as she continued thinking.

Ane opened his eyes to see himself lying on the water in the seal; the dragon's eyes looming over him from the cage. "Why am I here?" Ane thought; closing his eyes. Ane was in his "dragon mode" on an bunch of rocks; the lightning striking an area far from him. Ane roared and the lion man tilted his head. 

"Could it be....you're..." the lion began.

"That eye! You don't deserve that eye!" the dragon hissed as it's aura blasted around the area.

"It is you." the lion man said; smirking. The dragon responded with a pissed off glare.

"Should I go seal him again?" Sid whispered to Eina. Her hair shielded her eyes.

"I-I don't know. If we seal him; the lion creature will kill Ane but if we leave the dragon unchecked we are risking our own lives." she remarked; biting her nail nervously.

Ane roared and dove at the lion man who swung both axes; electricity blasting from the weapons which Ane simply sidestepped. The teen then bulleted at the lion man who then emitted electricity from his entire body. Ane got blasted away and he landed on all fours. His claws gripped the risen earth and he pelted some pieces at the lion man who chuckled. "Pathetic!" it yelled slicing away the pieces of earth. Ane was in front of him as soon as the blade finished slicing the terrain and Ane kicked the lion man into the air. Ane dove after the creature who looked pissed as lightning began striking at Ane in barrages. The dragon possessed teen jumped away from the bolts and dove forward to then be behind his opponent in a moment. 

"Straight Forward Dragon Claw!" he hissed as the lion man dispersed into electricity; roaring in pain. Ane dove away and landed silently.

"Oh boy. Here it comes." Ene thought; eying Ane.

Ane looked at the teens who watched back in fright. Ane grinned evilly but then turned to the building and paced at it with a murderous look. "Crap; he's gonna kill that guy!" Eina yelled.

"That'll sabotage the mission." Lisa added before pacing at Ane who stopped abruptly and turned to her. Ane shot at Lisa unhesitantly; claws raised. Blood sprayed across the ground.

Lisa knelt in shock and Ane was morphing into himself slowly; falling down. Blood was all around his mouth and his badly bruised body was twitching. "So that explains his heightened speed." Sid said.

"Yeah." Eina said softly.

"What do you guys mean?!" Lisa yelled; turning to them.

"He normally uses Speed Adjustment X3 and Strength Adjustment X3 in his dragon like form but this time he tried that in his human form and his body eliminated itself from the inside." Sid began.

"I see." Ene added; eyes shielded.

"Yes and it also seems when he transformed he increased his abilities' levels yet again." Eina concluded.

"So...it resulted to this...." Lisa whispered staring at Ane. Sid appeared from Lisa's shadow.

"I'll take care of him. You  three must finish the mission." Sid said.

"Why bother though?" Lisa asked. Sid looked at the girl. "This..."mission" was just dumped onto us by that cheap excuse of a teacher." Lisa continued; tears forming in her eyes. "Ane because of that Ane's nearly..." she cried to be gently patted on the head. She watched the hand responsible to see it was Ane's. The boy gently placed his forehead on Lisa's and smiled.

"It's okay. I'm okay." he whispered. Lisa burst into tears and hugged Ane. Sid smiled and nodded and Ane who eyed him.
