The Search for Freedom

Kaila

I was interested in what Alicia wanted to tell me, but she was also right; we needed to do something in order to kill the fan girl. That girl was more important than anything else in this kind of situation. I should not let her escape; otherwise we would need to search for and fight her. I didn't want her to know there was someone going to kill her, or else she would have prepared for it and it would be difficult for me.

There was nothing else we could do but wait for the fan girl to drop her fan and give up. This kind of fight was like the Cold War, in which we didn't need or use swords and strength. This fight mightn't have to come into ardor because if the fan girl dropped her fan, I didn't need to exert force in order to kill her. But I could not judge someone by their appearance. I should be prepared for the possibility that it will turn out differently than I expected.

After a few moments of waiting, the fan girl stood up and walked again. Along the quiet, lonely road without anyone else, the opportunity showed up in volition. As she dropped her fan on the road, I also used my power to grab it. Being quick in every move could really help me, and I used it.

The fan hadn't even reached the road when I caught it while falling. I never expected I could move like lightning and take the power of a fan girl in just a blink of an eye. She was also appalled when she bent her knees to take the fan, which he expected to be on the ground, but there was nothing there anymore.

Maybe it was powerful, especially since I witnessed how the girl reacted when she lost it. She was both sad and angry, but she became weak without this fan. She did nothing, but to sat down on the roadside, as her sky became cloudy and her tears were the rain. In that occasion, she looked pitiable for me.

Having sympathy to those people who were destined to fight me, was just a weakness. I didn't want to show my weakness anymore, because it would be an impediment in gaining my freedom. At the same time, I realized that seeking for freedom was never been easy, it needed an enormous sacrifice, bravery and patience.

Meanwhile, Alicia was watching and observing what I was going to do next. I knew she could not help me in killing the girl because her power would not work, though that sounded impossible. I thought she was so powerful that she could do anything she wanted, but right there, Alicia appeared to be weaker than me, as she couldn't even touch human, she seemed to be a floating air.

Even though the girl looked weak, I still needed to end her life in order to proceed with the fifth person who was destined to fight me. Nothing could happen if I would just stand here and stared at my pitiable enemy, so I walked towards her and do what was needed to be done. I didn't want Alicia to remind me about this callous weakness which seemed to be attacking me again.

As I walked towards her I recognized her physical features. She had high nose, pinkish lips, brown eyes, average height and looked young, suiting with her age. Her weight and size was the only problem; she looked like a tall, thin pencil. She stood up and asked, "Who are you?" She was scrutinizing everywhere, but in my face, then became more curious, perhaps because she never found any familiar thing about me.

"I hope you may forgive me," I apologized.

She slowly closed her eyes, as if many things were messing with her mind, then she asked, "Why are you saying that? Do I know you?"

"You don't know me, but I will be owing you something." I stopped for a while and took a deep breath.

"You will be owing me something? What's that?" She interrupted.

"Because I needed to kill you, and you must die. So I will be owing you your life." I replied in a serious tone of voice, sending shiver to her spine. "Will you be kind to lend me that?" "You needed to..." She hadn't finished her words.

Maybe she was surprised when I said those words. She might thought I was just a crazy girl, though I looked beautiful and serious. It was impossible for me to be crazy as what she might thought.

Thereafter, she stood up and attempted to run, to escape from me, but she hadn't succeed. I only grabbed her body and slung her across the air. She definitely had a problem in her weight because she was so light. Without anything else, I thrown her down the road. It made a loud blast. She fell down lopsidedly and began crying because of surprised, terror and pain.

She slowly attempted to looked directly at me and to stand up. "Who are you and why... you're... inflict... ing me?" She stammered.

She hadn't got far as her tears were falling down from her eyes, and also blood from her head. She hadn't succeed to stand because I stepped over her abdomen without even looking at her condition for I might change my mind. "Ah!" She growled, while I could figure out her blood were spurting out from her mouth and nose.

The door girl totally breathe her last when I stepped over her chest with my full weight. At the same time, when Alicia saw that I did with the girl, she walked towards me, for it was her turn. Her lips reached her ear as she smiled like a demon. "Good job Kaila, you're absolutely a clever girl because you did not let your weakness win over you," Alicia complimented.

"I'm even more powerful and clever than you," I remarked.

"Don't say that you are underestimating me now. I know what made you said that. It's because my power won't work right?" She pursed her lips. "Don't worry, that's okay, I'm not mad, really."

"Perhaps, but why you're not mad even I would say that I'm more powerful and clever than you right now?"

"Whahaha!" She laughed like a demon. "Don't think I will be mad just because of that, because I'm even happy when you learned how to brag your capabilities. I'd love to know that I had changed the weak Kaila into a more powerful and clever one."

"Whahaha! You're right!" I agreed in an unconvinced manner.
