Thread: The Witch's Apprentices [HimekoxMyHappyWorld]

Three days had passed since they came to the village of Dalfiren and it was time to move on and see if the next village they came across needed help or anything. That night they took their leave with their payment and thanked the villagers for allowing them to stay as long as they did. Nnn... Hotaru why couldn't we have just stayed one more night and left in the morning? Misaru whined as Hotaru sighed and shook her head. Because sis, if we stayed any longer we'd be wearing out our welcome. And besides... We might be needed in the next village. Besides... As much as I like a warm bed and whatnot... I like to be roaming around, you know this sis and I know you prefer it this way. Hotaru said as they walked through the forest with Kaosu snuggled against her neck. This is true sis. Should we find a place to try out some of the new spells that we learned? I kinda wanna try them out now. Misaru asked and Hotaru chuckled as her sister asked her question. Hahaha, very well then sis. I will set up a barrier so no one can see us. Hotaru replied as she found a nice open spot and placed a magical barrier around it before Hotaru turned around to face her sister. Rules are simple. We will only use our personal element as armor for protection, we will NOT be using our element against each other. Conjuration spells and anything we've learned up to this point can be used. Like normal our training will be fighting for real, like it was a fight to the death. This is why we use our personal element as armor only. Now dearest little sister... Draw your weapon and harden your body with your ice! Hotaru said as the flames of hell wrapped around her body, forming a solid molten armor. The atmosphere around them changed drastically as they both turned into the blood thirsty hunters that they were. Kaosu knew better than to get in the way as the siblings trained, seeing as they literally fought to the death, even though yes they never killed each other, they just fought till they couldn't fight no more. Misaru's body was fully encased in the hardest form of ice as she drew her sword and readied herself. They knew many forms of spells, including illusion, conjuration, summoning beings for a short time to do their bidding, and destruction spells. They weren't strangers to healing spells, they had to learn them above all so they could heal each other after every battle. Hotaru drew her sword and smirked at her little sister as they both began chanting their spells. Hotaru opened with a summoning spell to summon a tentacle monster to try and pin her sister down while Misaru summoned a frost wolf, which wasn't against the rules. While Misaru was captured Hotaru was busy dealing with the wolf that was summoned. Using her sword Misaru cut herself free as she summoned a ice golem to deal with the tentacle monster while she rushed at her older sister with her sword. Hotaru knowing what her sister was up to cast an illusion spell to make it appear like the was several Hotarus there thus confusing Misaru. Letting out a low growl Misaru used one of her conjuration spells to summon several swords as she controlled them with her telekinesis and flung them at ALL of the Hotarus to make sure she hit the right one, which she didn't for the real one was falling down at her from a tree with the real Hotaru's sword aimed at Misaru's heart. Jumping back she conjured water to grab and stop Hotaru in her tracks. See water may turn into ice, however it isn't ice thus not a part of her element and not against the rules. But normally when she did this it was game over seeing as water weakens her sister dearly. Damn it Misaru! Why can't you fight me fair! Hotaru chocked out as the heat from her armor turned the water into steam as her eyes glew a dark red as her sword began to glow a golden color. TIME TO END THIS! Hotaru yelled as she used her speed to dodge all the attacks and weapons thrown at her as she got behind Misaru, and before she knew anything Hotaru pierced through the diamond like armor and pierced her sister through the chest, though not hitting anything vital. When it came to actual fighting, Hotaru always won, however when fighting with spells, Misaru always won. The battle was over as Hotaru began focusing on healing her sister before her injury got any worse. Beat me again sis... Damn it! I thought for sure I'd win this time if I used the water against you to weaken you. But yet again, the warrior inside of you prevails once again. Someday my spells will grant me a win. Just you wait! Misaru said as she grunted a little her sister healed her wounds. Someday your spells will beat me. But not tonight for my warrior's spirit as you call it, will not allow me to be defeated that easily. Now hold still while I heal you. Hotaru spoke softly as she continued her healed her sisters wounds completely, leaving no scratches left on her sisters body. What about your wounds dear sister? Misaru asked and Hotaru chuckled slightly. No need to worry about my wounds, nothing too serious. However I am weak from the water and I need my rest and so do you. Lets eat and then set up our tents for the night. Hotaru replied weakly as she smiled softly to her sister. No one would have ever thought that these two from before could be this kind and caring. Before they were out for each others blood and now they were back to their kind and loving nature. The villagers gave them plenty of food to last them for awhile. I'll cook the meal so you don't have to go near the fire, okay sis? Hotaru said as she weakly got up and set up a camp fire and began pulling some of food out of her second pouch, the one used for food only. Fish and vegetables were pulled and put a pan and was slowly being cooked as Hotaru tossed spices and seasonings on the fish and vegetables. The fish was already cut up and deboned so they wouldn't have to do it themselves. The special thing about her food pouch was it never let food spoil or go bad, thus making it easier for them to travel with food when they knew they were gonna be a few days away from the next town or village. Are you sure you are able to cook while you weak? Misaru asked Hotaru who only shook her head. I'll be fine sis. I cannot let you get near the fire for it will hurt you. Just take it easy it's almost done and it smells great, doesn't it? She replied with a smile on her face. For once they ate in silence except for a few comments on how the good the food tasted and whatnot. I'm going to bed now sis. You can clean up when you're done if you'd like. But please make sure Kaosu eats and put the left overs in my bag when you're done. Also please let Kaosu in my tent before you go to bed. Hotaru asked softly as she made her way to her tent and quickly passed out. Misaru finished up and cleaned the mess up while putting the left overs into a container and putting it into her sisters food pouch before letting Kaosu into her sister's tent. Kaosu brought in the food pouch with him as he dropped it off next to his mistress before snuggling up to her before passing out himself. The next day came quickly as the sun rose Misaru was already awake and began waking her sister up gently. Wake up sis. It's time to go. She said softly as groans of protest from her sister. Nnnn... Okay sis... Please get off of me now though... Hotaru grunted as Misaru got off her sister and let her wake up as she left the tent to pack her own tent up. Yawning loudly Hotaru got up and noticed she passed out in her armor. Oh well. Saves me from having to get dressed I suppose. She said softly to herself as she gathered her things from inside the tent before taking it down and placing it inside her pouch. Hey uh sis...? Yes Misaru? Do you smell that? Misaru asked as she sniffed the air and smelled what seemed like food that had cooked from last night or so. Yeah I smell something faint, smells pretty good. Must mean someone's nearby or something. Oh well, we'll find out as we walk who it might be or whatever. Come on Kaosu and Misaru. Time to head out! Hotaru called out happily as they walked together with Kaosu on Hotaru's shoulders like normal. As they walked they talked about how their battle last night turned out and how well each other did. You're really improving sis. I just wish I was half as good with magic like you. Hotaru said as Misaru giggled. And here I wish I as good at fighting like you. Misaru replied as she stuck her tongue out at Hotaru. I guess that makes us even then...? Hahaha. Hotaru laughed as she turned her head to hear someone call out to them. Well what ya know? There's some one here after all! And a woman too sis! I hope she's friendly! Misaru said as waved her hand at the stranger and Hotaru nodded and waved as well. Are you broke down? Do you need help madam? Hotaru called out to the woman. Not knowing that the woman they found was the one they had been searching for. No worries dear. I was able to make it work out.
