Chapter 7
Eimi walked into the throne room, wanting to tell her dad something. The school had decided to place a makeshift holiday, so today, was a holiday. King Kaito was too busy to know that, so she decided to tell him.
She looked at the throne and saw her father and her mother sitting on their thrones, reading books. It was very boring to be a king and queen because usually, nothing happened in Aquolio.
"Mom! Dad! Did you know that there's a makeshift holiday for school? All of the Aquolio kids are coming back to Aquolio!" Eimi called. Kaito looked up and smiled. He loved children and always prepared a party for them during holidays.
"Nice! I gotta plan a party!" He jumped up excitedly and got out a paper and pen. He started scribbling ideas on the paper, muttering under his breath. Queen Akihiro just winked at Eimi.
After some time, Kaito was done. "Ah hah! I'm done!" he shouted. "Let's go get the party started!" he rushed off to tell the castle servants.
Eimi rolled her eyes and Akihiro laughed. Her friends piled into the room, looking confused. "I thought that I just saw King Kaito running around the castle crazily," Hinoko murmured.
"Oh yes, that was him." Eimi chuckled. She went over to hug her friends.
Suddenly, a huge boom shook the castle. Eimi gasped and looked around. Her friends lowered themselves into a battle position. Guards shouted, running around, and Akihiro gasped.
"Hello hello! Nice to see you again!" A part of the ceiling exploded, and out of the hole created by that explosion came the hateful Hunters of the Eagle Current.
"No! Not the Hunters!" Eimi gasped. "Quick! We have to fight!" the team summoned their qis and flew up, ready to battle. "Water Vortex!" she yelled, throwing the strongest powerful jet of water she could generate at the leader. the attack just shoved the witch backward a little bit, but no harm was done. "What?!" Eimi gasped. "How?"
"Hahaha!" the witch laughed. "We're invincible! Your powers are sooo weak!" she shot a blast of electricity at them. But this electricity was faster and bigger. In a blink of an eye, they were hit, flying through the air.
"Ack!" Eimi stopped herself from colliding with the wall. She quickly generated a big water pillow underneath her friends. They landed on it safely. Then they flew up and stopped next to Eimi. "They've gotten a lot stronger!" she puffed.
"Totally. This is NOT COOL." Mei agreed.
"Oh no! They're getting ready to attack again!" Noa gasped. They turned their attention to the witches, whose hands were glowing with power, charging their attacks.
"Try to dodge them!" Riku gasped, dodging a blast of water coming toward her.
Eimi looked around for Queen Akihiro. She was gone, but she could hear her shouting commanding troops.
After a while, the army came out and started shooting at the witches. Unfortunately, the bullets just bounced off the witches harmlessly.
"AHAHAHAHA YOU GUYS ARE DIMWITS!!!!" the witches roared with laughter.
Eimi and her friends were exhausted and dizzy from dodging attacks, but their enemies were still full of energy. "I-I can't fight any longer!" Noa gasped. "They're too strong!"
"They somehow stole something from the Magic Items Creator," Eimi replied. "I sense the magical presence radiating off of the witches." she barely had the energy to duck an attack aimed at her head.
"GET THEM!! AHAHAHAHAHA!!!" the witches roared with triumph as they saw their enemies struggle to recover. King Kaito was nowhere to be seen. Dazed guards lay sprawled on the ground, and Queen Akihiro was trying to attack them with her water powers, but with no luck.
Finally, Eimi couldn't take it anymore, and she slumped to the ground and closed her eyes. Her breathing was heavy, and her heart raced.
"YES!! Get her! Knock the others out! HUNTERS OF THE EAGLE CURRENT CONVERGENCE!!!" the witches summoned a huge black eagle from their hands, and the last thing Eimi saw and heard, was the eagle tackling her friends and their cries of pain. Then everything went black.
