"So?, why are we outside?" Serena asked to shauna who's walking with her in the street of lumiose, having a lot of bags in their hands from shopping, the moon is shy, in fact they expect a full moon tomorrow, shauna giggled
"Ash told me you might need some help from shopping" shauna said to her this cause her to raise a brow, but it tunred to a giggle as well, she knew ash might do something like that, even it's been months since she exiled from heaven to earth she is still trying to get use to it, fashion is one of them
"Thanks shauna, for beeing a good and only girl-friend expect mairin" she thanked, shauna playfully poked her shoulder with her elbow
"Hue that's what friends do, so how about we g-" she tried tonsay but suddenly
"AAHHHHH!!!"
"HEEEELP!!!"
They heard some screams from an back alley cause both of them to drop their bags, shauna gave a scared face but serena narrow her eyes, this could be another demon
"Come on let's get out of here" shauna said while putting a few steps back while shivering, but serena put her steps forward, as much
"But we need to help" serena answered as her steps turned into rans, she head to backalley at full speed, as much as shauna wanted to ran back, she followed serena to make sure she is okay
Once they reached to the back alley they jaw dropped to see some people unconsciously laying on the ground, but the other thing they saw was a creature standing in the middle of the alley, it wqs stanfing under a light pole and because of that his details or colour was hard to see but they saw a human-jackal creature
"W-What i-i t-this?" Shauna stuttered with fear, serena extend her arm to cover her front, she narrowed her eyes at it, still couldn't managed to see the colour or details from the shadows but he definetly saw a jackal figure, then it put it's arms together and glowed red, serena's eyes wide opened
"SHAUNA WATCH OUT!!!" Serena yelled and jumped at shauna this cause both of them to fell on ground, serena fall on top of shauna, she did that on purpose to protect her grom the blast the demon blast from it's body, pink glowing wings extend from serena's back and used one of her wings as a shield to block the blast radius, luckly shauna was so scared she wide closed her eyes from fear
When the blast was over she stood up and she looked at the demon again, but something was odd, the humans layed on ground begin to glow red, she watched in awe as their souls escaped from their body and the jackal siphoned them in his chest one by one, one by one fainted hıman's hairs turned to white and their skins wrinkled, they become soulless shells, before it could finish devouring more souls, serena shot a light sphere at it
"Hey you!" Serena yelled at the demon which cause it to look at him, but when it saw serena it suddenly saw her wings and felt her light aura which is only belong to angels, it somehow scared it and made him to jump away from there, hoping from a wall to another, it disappeared from the eyes, serena watched in curiousty, she wanted to follow and banish it but shauna slowly opened her eyes
"Wha...what happened just now?" She asked while rubbing her head, suddenly her eyes wide opened and her jaw dropped on ground once she suddenly saw serena's pink glowing light wings, serena sweatdropped
"İ...i can....ex-explain..i..huh...i...." serena keep stuttering, shauna was so shocked she couldn't even managed to speak, she just saw a demon and serena's wings!, she shouldn't supposed to see that!, now as an independence women, she has to explain it like an old and mature way
.
.
.
"look it's santa!"
"Huh?"
Shauna looked at her back where serena pointed but suddenly she got hit by a brick from the back of her head, serena sweatdropped while tossing the brick away but what else she could do?, now shauna will think this will be an amnesia, but now she has to take her home, she can't leave shauna laying like that, serena had an idea, she begin to dig her hand inside shauna's pockets
"Alright shauma, let's see if you have-" " serena mubmled to herself while searching her phone,once she pulled it out she used her thumb finger to unlock the phone and begin to search her phone, "-haha!, google maps!" She jumped with joy once she found that app, ash taught serena how to use maps when she first came here, you know not to get lost, once she located her home serena grabbed her bridal style and flew to drop her at her house, hoped that she will not remember anything...expect all the gossips they had

************************************************************************************************************************
Morning
"Are you sure this was a jackal or not a dog or something?" Ash asked with his arms on the back of his head, now he and serena are walking to school, serena nodded
"animals exists in heaven as well and i'm sure it was some sort of human jackal, but i couldn't managed to see it clearly since it was night" serena answered, but she suddenly layed her head on ash's shoulder, ash saw fear in her eyes
"But ash you should've seen the people after it devoured their auras, they were terrible, like they turned into zombies" serena said with a little afraid tone, ash realized she was horrified at what she saw last night, as a respond he wrapped his hand around her shoulder
"Serena don't be afraid, i'm here to protect you, remember the first time we met?, i swore to look after you and i will no matter what" ash daid while stroking her hair, brushing her soft honey-blonde hair to back of her ear, trying to boost her morale with his talk, which is worked obviously, she gave a smile
"Thanks ashy" she said and suddenly pecked a kiss on his cheek, "but i'm a soldier remember? İ can take care of myself"
"Yeah sure" ash just giggled to that answer, while they keep walking to school, even she looked confidence she was afraid, and ash saw it, and he knew he needs to find this thing and banish him as quick as possible, a demon steals souls...what serena said to that...ha!, aura, what is an aura?
"You hit shauna's head with a brick?"
"What?, you hit her too, with a broom remember?"
...............................................................
The school was boting as usual, once they hit to 5th period after lunch it was the reading lesson, so the class head to liblary then everyone begin to look around wondering an looking for a book to read
"Hey ash i'm gonna read this one, it has a lot of pictures in it" serena whispered to ash, since it was forbidden to talk loud at liblary, ash was looking for hşs book so he didn't paif much attention at her, but once she walked to table and opened the book ash saw what was she holding, and ash sweatdropped
"Serena it's not a book it's a manga!, it contains spoile-"
"AAAAH!, KİLL İT!, KİLL İT WİTH FİRE!" Serena yelled once she learned the armoured titan is actually CENSORED and threw the manga to floor, "What kind of sick monster writes these to ruin a series?!!!" Serena madly mumbled while crossing her arms, ash couldn't help but to giggle and slowly shooking his head left and right
"Poor angel, how little you know..."
.............................................................
There was a silent in liblary and ashbwas still looking for a book to read, he just couldn't managed to find something interested him, he looked at serena who's buried her face inside one of the books called a warriors book, this somehow interested her, anyway ash keep looking for books on shelfves until he suddenly saw something
"The legend of sir aaron" ash picked the book from the sehlf as he mumbled, then he stood on a chair and put the book on table, once he opened the book he begin to read it
Time passed but he just mananed to read 6 pages which is not mych due to book's giant size, ash let out a sigh of boredness until he suddenly saw a word written
"The aura?" Ash mumbled, this was the same thing waht serena said back in the road this morning, ash forgot to was what was that but now he can learn himself and maybe he can find some information on the demon she saw last night, he thought but suddenly his thoughts got cut off by a female voice and a soft hand on his shoulder
"Hey i love that book" the voice said, ash turned his face back only to see dawn standing there, that wa an awkward situation between them since what ash did after that night he was drunk, not that thank god
"H-hey dawn how's it...going?" Ash awkwardly asked while rubbing the back of his head, dawn gave a worried face and sit the table front of him
"Look ash, i wanted to thank you for standing up for me" she said in worry, ash's eye wide opened but then gave a small smile
"İt was nothing really" he shyly said, then added, "so...you amd paul are now..you know a..." ash tried to ask but dawn shook his head as a respond
"No he said he doesn't want a serious relationship" she bowed her head sadly while saying, and gave the same face as she added, "zoey and ursula left me because i'm not popular anymore, guess i have no one now" she sadly added, she wanted to cry right at the moment but ash extend a hand on her shoulder
"No you're not, let's start from over and become friends what do you say?" Ash said and extend his open palm at her, she smiled and shook hands with him
"Thanks ash, you might be the only friend i have left, and i promise i'll apologize from serena as well" dawn softly said after they seperated hands, ash couldn't help but to gave a bright smile, but then he remembered what he was gonna ask
"Hey you said you love this book, so you read it already right?" Ash asked, dawn nodded in joy
"The legend of sir aaron is the most romantic story ever, all the girls in the world must've read it already" dawn answered, that was the answer ash was looking for, at least some of the answer is
"Can you tell me, i...i need to write a summary of it for professor rowan" ash lied, his real purpose is to find out more about this aura, but dawn took it and she giggled
"Too lazy to read huh?, alright the story happened in ages ago, back then in the middle age..............
Once upon a time there was class of talented knights, one day 2 of the knights aaron and zeke fall in love with the princess elizabeth of the kingdom, zeke wanted her most but princess ended up loving aaron, this fill zeke with the desire of anger and revenge and he made a deal with the gods, he offered his soul to gods in exchange he will get the power to kill aaron, god's turned him into a jackal, time passed and aaron and elizabeth married but jackal ambushed them in their own house, aaron protected her wife but their house ended up on fire and elizabeth caught in fire, seeing their love burned alive, zeke ran away and aaron wanted revenge on zeke, he made the same deal with the gods, he offered them his soul and they turned him into a jackal to hunt zeke down
"And they say aaron and zeke are still looking for each other, still haunted for desire of revenge" dawn finished the story, ash was amazed by the story, he wanted to read the book but ended up learning it, anyway serena said she saw a jackal last night so that proves it must be aaron or zeke, but which?
"Wow...but what is the aura exactly, you didn't said anything about it" ash asked to dawn still wondering the answer
"Aura is the soul of a human, they say every creature contains a specific power inside their souls" dawn asnwered and begin to explain them with while counting them with her fingers, "let's see, humans calls it aura, demons calls it mist, angels calls it...what was it...uhm..." she tired tonsay but ash cut her off
"Light?" Ash asked, dawn gaspen in joyness
"Yeah how do you know you're not taking mythology class?" Dawn asked, he knows it because of serena, she said angels has light powers that allows them to create spheres and heal their wounds but only ash's demon slayer gauntlet can create weapons, but only close combat like sword and sphere, alain's demon hunter can create long range like bow and crossbow, just like in a MMO game, this means the 3th gauntlet is a creates staff and wand, the more ash searches trough history more it begin to make sense, if those demons were once humans and lived in middle age, maybe they know what revealing light is, because whatever it is gauntlets wants it to happen
"Thanks dawn" ash said while standing up, she smiled
"No problem, thanks again for friendship offer and i swear my crush for you is totally gone" she replied, ash believed her words of course, old dawn would never give the victory to serena, ash stood up and walked away from the liblary
"HEY PAY FOR THE BOOK!" A worker in liblary saw him walking out and shout at him
"SORRY" ash shout back and head to casier, men it's very annıyşng to pay for those stupid books just so you can return them here again anyway
............................................................
"So...we're hunting dogs, like russians?" Alain said while putting some stuffs in his backpack, the whole gang is in the alain's mansion's living room, prepearing themselves for the patrol, tonight is the full moon that means they will probably show up somewhere and they will be ready
"More like jackals but yeah...like...russains.." ash answerd while lookig trough a binocular, he gaze trough the room until he suddenly saw giant 2 mountain of-
"A-ash!" Serena saw him staring her chest with binocular, she blushed hot pink and crossed their arms to cover her breasts, ash lowered the binocular immediately
"Hehe...sorry" ash stuttered while giving a jerk face and putting the binocular inside his backpack, mairin sighed
"Guys act a little professional?, if what ash said is true we can ask them what is the revealing light and what it does" mairin said while watching then getting ready for night, he threw some bottle of water at alain and he grabbed it, then pikachu who's standing on table along with sylveon fist-palmed
"And we will banish them" pikachu said but mairin shook her head as a no
"No pikachu we need to get answers first" mairin said, then pikachu lowered his tail and ears and his head, giving a mad face
"She has to suck the fun out of it" pikachu said while jumping out of the table and heading the door, sylveon looked at pikachu
"Don't worry if we find them i'll call you" sylveon swinked while holding a speaker on her ribbon arm, mairin winked back
"Thanks sylveon, that's why girls should be in command" mairin said while looking at ash and alain who's staring out trough the window with binoculars like such a little kids
"Hey there is a cat trapped on a tree, these binaculars are amazing"
"İ know right, oh some kids are running after an ice cream truck"
Serena just giggled with her ars on her back and mairin face palmed at them
...........................................................
*******************************************************************************************************************
The night was bright and the moon was complate circle, shines on sky and shoots light everywhere like the sun, of course people were crawling in the streets of lumiose, the gang was split across the city, looking for 2 jackal demons in the book ash read, speaking of which he was walking around the city with serena, well serena was flying for a better sight
"How are things at sky?" Ash asked to serena trough the speaker who's flying above the city with her light wings
"Not good, people smokes too much, but hey there are birds everywhere, i think i'm gonna pet one" serena spoke back, petting a bird?, they already have a mouse and a cat with them why would she wants to-....wait PETTİNG?!!!
"Serena stay away from them when they get scared they-" ash tried to warm her about what birds do if they got scared but
"-AW!, DİSGUSTİNG" ash heard serena's angry grumblings trough the speaker, ash loudly whistled as he slowly turned the frequency switch
"What kind of day is this!!! first i spoiled with armoured titan's identity and now these stupid birds covered me in their shi-.........." ash changed the frequency and see if anyone else got something new
"Hey alain and mairin, did you 2 found something?" Ash spoke to speaker to alain, wondered what is he up to
"No, we been driving around the city but we couldn't managed to find a thing" mairin repond to ash's call, ash sighed
"Well let me know if you do....hey park somewhere else asshole!" Ash heard alain's words but suddenly he heard him shouting at something, and not only that he heard some more sounds yelling at them
"Hey pull yo whip back dwag!"
"it's a van! And who you calling dwag asswipe!"
"YO!, you wan som of dis?!"
"Bring it punk!"
"Alain i think you shouln't mes-................" last thing ash heard trough some shouts was mairin and an opening van door sound but she must've turned off the speaker, huh...who knows alain is a truckmouth to get in a fight with some driver...everyone
"Oh come on!" Ash sighed again but this time he was a bit mad, everyone is getting some action expect him, he wanted to fight with an asshole driver as well, he turned to get in another frequency again, he hoped pikachu and sylveon had better luck than them, so he locked on their frequency, "sylveon, pikachu please tell me you find something"
"Nope but....HEY THE BEARS SCORED!!!" Pikachu tried tonsay but somehow ended up yelling, wait a second bears scored?, isn't that a hockey team and they had a match with moles tonight?, ash thought but suddenly his eyes wide opened
"Bears ended up scoring....wait a minute are you 2 in hockey match?!!!" Ash yelled trough the speaker, this time sylveon answered
"Sorry ash he tricked me" Ash heard sylveon's voice, he couldn't saw it but sylveon gave a smile to speaker, "but hey there are a lot of people, if i wanted to steal souls this place would be perfect" she added with joyfull voice, probably she got excited about seeing a sport in her first time, again ash sighed
"Alright, i guess stadium needs to be secured, hey pikachu don't forget to grab a CD of the match after it's over" ash said to pikachu trough the speaker, then he heard the yellow mouse's voice
"İ got you bro" pikahu said then ash closed the speaker, even though the bears were in the front which is one of his favourite teams, he become sad, he just to walk randomly with his hands buried in his pocket and begin to think, more like complained
"Pikachu and slyveon watching hockey match, alain is fight with some gang bangers, serena must've at the shower after those bird attacked on her, everyone always having good time expect me" ash keep thinking, more like keep complaining to himself, everyone is out there having good time although this was supposed to be a mission which ended up ash has to carry by himself, like always, the weight always been on ash's shoulder
"İ saved serena, i bring us together, who knew been a leader would be so hard and all i want is a small break, do i want a lo-"
"MONSTER!!!"
"RAN FOR YOUR LİVES!!!"
Ash heard some people screaming from a cinema, must've been a demon, ash mumbled in joy because now he gets the action...again
"Ahhhh, good old people screams"
...............................................................
******************************************************************************************************************
Ash ran inside the cinema only to see the mess inside the ticket vendors, scratch marks, some fell of drinks and popcorns, a broken mop, a giant black dust on wall still steaming, definetly a powerful soul stealing jackal demon signs
Ash ran on the gates which has a red carpet all over the ground extending all the way inisde the door gates, when ash turned a corner he saw a blue human shaped jackal with white-yellow fur chest with a spike and has black palms, also has spikes on his forehands, the demon looked at ash and ash immediately put the demon slayer on his hand
"So you're the demon serena saw last night, anything else before i banish you!" Ash said with a serious look as he aimed lucario with a light sphere inside his armed palm, suddenly something he never expected happened
"İ'm not gonna let you!" Lucario said as he aşmed his aura sphere at ash, ash raised an eyebrow
"You can talk?" Ash asked with a confused look o in his face, he shouldn't be so confused since pikachu and sylveon can talk as well, but that only means he has intellegance, and he can change sides...maybe?
"Yes and i will not let you bani-AAAARGHHH!!!" Lucario tried to say to ash but somehow an electricity hit trough his body and he ended up screaming in pain, the electricity came from nowhere, it was from his body, then suddenly
"RRAAGHHH!!!" Lucario roared like a real wolf and shoot his aura sphere, ash shot his own light sphere and they meet in air then Exploded, lucario jumped from the smokes at ash with a bone rush, ash drew his own light sword and they clashed their weapons in mid-air
"Why are you here!, why are you stealing souls?!" Ash madly asked while pushing his sword to lucariou's bone spear, but he didn't respond, ahs looked closer at him only to see glowing red eyes, after seconds later they pushed each other back
"Great, mind controlled" ash mumbled like he didn't had enough pain from mind controlling already, lucario charged at him with bone spear and ash charged at him with his sword, and they begin to duel in the cinema corridor
"Hey...i don't know....you're aaron.....or zeke but-" ash talked between the sword slashes and blocks, he remembere the story, about 2 knights turned into demons because of their desire to revenge for the girl they loved, 2 jackal so it is either zeke or aaron, but as soon as he mentioned zeke to lucario his eyes narrowed and he hit to ash with a force palm which blast ash to one of the doors and inside the threater
............................................................
Ash slowly straighten up whike rubbşng hşs back from the impact, then he realized he was on the stage of the curtai, zorro was playing and people were watching it with 3D glasses, suddenly lucario jumped on stage and draw his bone spear again, ash smirked since he is in a zorro movie he knew what to do
"En garde" ash said but he actually just let out a weird sentence of sound because now he tried the sentoriu technique(3 sword...yes 3 sword, one in each hand and one on a fucking mouth...yes in a mouth) ash ran at lucario and he did the same, they claseh in air just like how the characters does in movie, it turned out it sentoriu was easier than it looked, ash swinged all 3 sword at lucario and he swinged his 2 bone soears at ash, people watched them in awe and luckily they took the bait as their shocked gasps heard trought he room
"Wow i didn't know we paid for live action show"
"These 3D glasses are amazing"
"Wow like they actually fight in here"
Ash and lucario keep fighting on stage and somehow they fougt exactly like in the characters in movie above them, they mimic their moves but ınfortunetly lucario kicked ash between the attacks, and ash layed flat on his back, his swords let go of him and he spit the light sword in his mouth which all 3 swords dissappeared in thin air, lucario walked closer to him but he stopped when he raised his open palm at him
"AARON WAİT!" Ash yelled, as soon as he said aaron, lucario stopped and just stared at ash
"You're been controlled by someone, you're a warrior fight with it!" Ash shout at him with a serious but mean voice, lucario begin to put his hands on his head and pressing them, trying to shook off this control as he nimoved his upper body left and right in pain, ash slowly stood up and keep shouting
"You're stronger than this aaron, you are knigjt don't give in!" Ash yelled but suddenly lucario let out a scream between the grumbled
"RAAAAAGHHHH!!!" He bowed and pressed his arms together as his body begin to glow in red colour, ash's eyes wide opened and ran up to him to stop him
"AARON NOOOOO-" ash telled but before he could touch him lucariou opened his whole body creating a blast of energy that waved trough the whole treathen and people in seats knocked down from the blast, including ash, he fell on his knees and his eyeballs dissapeared, like everyone else in the room his soul ripped away from his back and flew inside the lucario's chest
Ash's body was just laying there, his hair turned to white, demon slayer was still in his hand, lucario wanted to pick it up but the slayer suddenly dissapeared in dust and scattered inside his chest, lucario somehow absorbed the demon slayer along with ash's soul
Lucario looked around and ran away from the treathen, leaving the bodies laying there like that, ash's as well, without a soul, an aura his body didn't even moved a finger
To be continued.............
