#12 of Yuri

Uh. yeah sorry ...


Uh. yeah sorry this took so long...

Yuri was unaware of the young cheetah staring at him as he walked home from the top of a building. The moon was bright. But its rays would not reach her. It was like the rays were afraid to get close to her. No matter. It wasn't like she cared.

" Hey Ikara." a bored voice said behind her.

Ikara moved her head in the direction of the voice.

"Brother."

"I have a name you know."

"I shall call you by your name once you come out." Ikara snapped. Black flames suddenly sprouted then died just as quickly as it came. In it's place was a teenage snow leopard. He had red bangs while the rest of his hair was black. Ikara could also see the two little horns that hid in his hair. He sported black clothes like his sister. "Happy now?"

"Good enough." The snow leopard waited. "Zen." Ikara added. Zen grunted in satisfaction. Out of nowhere, Ikara's pendant began to lift from her chest and hover in the air.

"Let...go...of...my pendant." Ikara hissed angrily.

"I don't know what you're talking about. My hands are here." Zen held up his paws.

"Zen..." She stared at him coldly with her blue, pupil-less eyes. Zen sighed. "Whatever." Right then, paws began to materialize, one clutching the skull pendant. Zen crossed his two arms. The other seven, he let them limp down to his sides. All the extra arms were the same size. Except a few that could stretch to longer lenghts. And each, was tipped with a sharp, menacing, black claw.

Ikara grabbed her pendant away from Zen's arm. "Where is Maximum?"

"Here." Once again, black flames appeared, and a big silver dragon appeared. He was really muscular, not to mention he was the oldest of his siblings. Two long onyx horns protruded from just above his eyes and curved back along his head. Huge white webbed wings sprouted from his back. His blue-green eyes had black diamond shaped slits that were filled with disdain. Like Zen, his hands were tipped with black claws. Just like his siblings, he wore black. "What is it?" He opened his palm and a red flame sparked to life. He twisted his fingers, and the flame twirled and danced.

"Maximum. Do you know Yuri?" Ikara tried to catch Maximum's gaze.

"Your new toy? Yeah." He still didn't look at her.

"I want you and Zen to attend the school he goes to and keep an eye on him."

Maximum's head jerked up, causing his flame to die in his hand. "What!" he bellowed. "That's stupid!"

"Ikara, if father hears about this..." Zen warned.

"I just need you to make sure the girl doesn't come near him."

Zen looked helplessly at Maximum. Maximum grunted as black flames swallowed him and disappeared. Zen shrugged . "This better be fun..." And he too, was swallowed by flames.

Ikara looked back to the theater.

"How clever of you." She said to no one in particular. "Making his name appear on the screen. Therefore bringing them together. I must give you credit girl. You're really smart for a mortal. But you can never win against me. Soon...very soon. I shall have your soul."

Ikara smiled to herself. "Just wait. I NEVER lose."
