I walked out of the portal, feeling a cool air brushing through my face with a rough touch and
sent shivers down my spine. The golden moon shone high on the sky, giving the area some light
and there was black, dead trees everywhere casting creepy shadows on the ground.
'The Halloween world', I thought to myself. 'How long have I waited for this day to arrive to a
world where I feel home and comfortable?' I putted my Akatsuki strawhat on, scanned the area for
enemies and checked my stuff for the prank. It was a very old trick, maybe to mean, but one of
my favorites and I didn't come up with something else. I smirked for myself as I walked deeper
into the dark woods.
After I have walked a while into the forest there was still was no sign of her. Or so I thought.
"Crack!" A noise came from the trees, I turned to place where it came from, sniffing the air.
'She's here.' I thought, preparing to fight. There was a long silence, nothing moved and the wind
has stopped. 'Dangerous close...'
"Well, well...isn't it Natsu." A mocking voice came from behind me. A dark figure stood behind
me, crossing it's arms and a big sadistic grin on it's face.
"Don't tell me Jess sent you to out prank me? HA!"
"So you are Shadow..." I said and turned to her.
"The one and only." Natsu smirked.
"Good good..." I ran at full speed at her and kicked her in her head, sending her backwards.
Then the fight began, we hitted, kicked and used all kind of techniques to take out eachother.
After a while of fighting I had we paused to catch our breath. There were bruises all over my body
and my cloak was thorn apart. 'Damn I didn't expect her to be this strong! ¤&#¤@$ Jess!!
Why didn't you tell me about her freak power to posess other people?!!'
I brushed some of my hair away and glares at Shadow who was chuckling.
"You are strong like they say and even this is the first time we have met- we do have alot in
common!" Shadow laughed like maniac.
"We both likes pranks, have the same point of view of humour and we are both FREAKS!"
A dark, sinister chuckle escaped my throat.
"You're right Shadow that we are truly very alike, BUT!...." Her eyebrow frowned and feeling
there is something wrong.
"...I'm not a fool who is stupid enough to walk into a trap." Shadows eyes widened and before
she knew it I was over her and she screamed at the top of her lungs.
I sat on a stone, playing with a lighter and sighed. Right in front of me lied Shadow with her
hands and feets bounded. Covered in tar and feathers, cursing her head off.
"You know, cursing isn't going to help you." I said calmly to her, but she hissed to me.
"Shut up, mutt!" Shaking my head as I stood up and walked over to her. Shadow stared
into my eyes with hatred
"How did you do this? How can such a mutt outprank ME?!!" I snorted at her meaningless
questions to herself.
"I got help from Itachi with my plan. You know him...and even a simple prank like this can be
turned out great." It was dead silent before I continued.
"But if you think I'm done you're wrong!" Shadow started to shiver and gulped.
"You're a shadow creature that lives by possesing others shadows and even if it looks like
you are almost invinceble you have a fatal weakness." She froze and slowly realized what
she where she are going.
"Light." I said simply."Any type of light. Since I was going to use tar and it burns easly..."
I flipped the lighter and held it over Shadow.
"...I was thinking...WHY NOT?" I dropped it and Shadow screamed: 'NOOOO~!'
Her whole body flamed up and her high-pitch screams filled the air while she
was rolling from side to side.
A black portal opened as a sign my mission is complete. I turned and smiled
softly to her.
"You're lucky, Shadow. If Jess weren't alive...you'll be dead." I laughed joyfully and
stepped into the portal.
"Mission accomplished..." Then it went black.
~Jess POV~
I was shaking on the floor and could hardly breathe. My body felt like it was on fire!
It must be Shadow who is burning!...What did Natsu do to her?! Why setting her on
fire?! At first I felt someone was beating me, but then it stopped suddenly. And now I was
on FIRE?! I felt the flames burn out and a cold came over me. Making my body freeze.
'She's back into the shadows again.' I thought relived. It was complet silence, my
body felt numb and weak so I couldn't move much.
'What just happened to her?!'
~Natsu~
~Jess~
