Fenikkusu no honō

The battle between light and dark.. Flame on Phoenix

Zakuro is running outside, against 4 other females. Turns out she's really good at sports. The cheers and the shouting consumes the whole area. They shout "Zakuro, Zakuro!" She is head on with a girl, dark green eyes, long blonde ponytail. Zakuro doesn't look her way. The girl picks up a pace and starts overlapping Zakuro. So did she. The screams and shouts fill the fields as they both are reaching the finish line- A loud bell goes, the shouting slowly fades. They all freeze. The young girl and Zakuro breathes helplessly. A first fight perhaps. They hadn't heard that bell since 2 years ago. 2 years ago, what could It be this time.

Zakuro runs off to the lockers grabbing a strangely shaped gem and ran back outside. She orders everyone to stay inside a small shack while Ryuu, Zakuro and the girl stand outside.
A loud and irritating screech is heard. The girl turns her head to Zakuro

"Zakuro-Chan!"

Her hands grabs on to Zakuro's

"You surely have read the book I gave you? You can't use your own power against that bird!"

Zakuro smirks.

"Don't worry, you sir don't need to worry about me"

Ryuu quickly turns his head towards the young girl. Well, boy

"You're a guy?!"

"Shut up, Ryuu-kun! I don't want the whole world knowing that"

Zakuro ignores the two and bites a piece of the gem. A large red fire bird flies over the school building as Zakuro's sports uniform changes into a red flaming uniform. A black phoenix is printed on it. She jumps on to the shack then brings a sword out, with strange patterns on them. Zakuro closes her eyes as the bird swoops down into the school's stadium.

"Damn, I haven't seen one of those in a while. We meet again Phoenix"

She leaps up into the air. The phoenix breathes our fire from its mouth. The closer she got the hotter it was. But. She knew what she was doing. She gripped her sword and attacked its stomach. This was easy. The flame bird lifted up its foot and stepped through the shack killing some people. It grabbed a live person. Opened its beak. The boy was screaming, let me go. Struggling. The screaming stopped. Crunching was all that was heard. Zakuro, Ryuu and Natsu watched the scene wide eyed with some other students.
Natsu opened his mouth

"When did---Phoenix's start eating humans" Natsu was shaken and still shaking.

The phoenix lifted up its other foot and nearly stomped on Natsu. Luckily Ryuu grabbed his waist and the jumped to the other side.
More appeared, blue, white and black. The rest did nothing.. The black phoenix started absorbing everything, the phoenix's, the students, the world..
Zakuro was shocked, grabbing hold of something.

"Natsu!!" Zakuro saw Natsu being pulled up to the black hole. So was Ryuu.
Eventually everything was black. Zakuro dropped on her knees. Why? Why wasn't she gone too? She couldn't cry, she couldn't die. She screamed and shouted, she couldn't hear her own voice anymore too. At that moment Zakuro dropped fully on the ground.
Silence...
