A pair of Mosaic eyes

Multi-colored eyes faced me as my dagger clattered on the ground. Long black hair with golden tips surrounded his pristine face. The individual was dressed in many silk robes varying in shades of green. The sound of a fan snapping open filled my ears as gold and silver danced in my eyes.

"Is that a way to greet an old friend Cherura?"

I pounced on the individual but he dodged my attack.

"Ugh. Just as short tempered as before. People grow up yet you only seem to get shorter."

The individual caught my leg which was was about to kick his face with his hand. I twisted out of his grasp and kicked his ankle. A cracking noise sounded as he cried out. I looked down at the individual with deep hatred.

"How is a pervert like you still walking in the streets, Maxine, leader of the Peacock Clan?"

Maxine chuckled and rose as if nothing had happened. He leaned in and touched a strand of my hair curling it. He gazed into my eyes with his colored ones. It was like looking into a rainbow.

"Why haven't you visited me for all of this time Cherura? I've been longing for you, did you know that? I haven't taken any wives because you're he only one for me."

He then kissed the tips of my hair and leaned in to kiss my lips. I then snapped.

"Ouch, ouch, what the fuck was that for?"

Maxine held his head as my fist blazed.

"Maxine."

"Yes Cherura?"

"Touch me one more time and it won't simply be a slap to the head next time. You will lose a limb or maybe even your neck do you understand?"

Maxine nodded and smiled once more.

"Still as cold to me as ever. Well I shall wait for the day that you warm up to me my sweet Cherura."

Maxine was suddenly thrown to the ground in one fluid motion. He coughed as he spit blood. I looked at the culprit. Cerebrius stood behind him with his golden eyes squinted and dark with anger. A menacing aura oozed from him.

Damn it! At this rate Maxine was going to die! I need to save this pervert so that Edola could stay in the alliance. Cerebrius raised his pistol and aimed for Maxine's head. But the upcoming scene left me in shock.

Cerebrius's eyes rolled back and he fell to the ground in one single movement. Maxine's eyes shone pink. I then crouched next to Maxine and slapped his face. Maxine's eyes returned to their normal color as he looked at me dazed.

I then moved over to Cerebrius and turned him over. He was unconscious. I then swung back my arm and delivered a vicious slap to his cheek. It was direct and hard so that he would wake up. Cerebrius opened his eyes and sat up quickly.

"Where is that bastard?"

I punched Cerebrius in the gut.

"You son of a bitch! This man is the leader of the Peacock Clan! He is Maxine the renowned man who can make his enemy fall in one second! Who the hell are you to challenge him?!"

"Do you favor me over him Cherura?"

I sighed. This man was being jealous at a crucial time like this?

"No I do not Cerebrius, I said that out of concern for you."

Cerebrius blushed as he turned away. He then muttered.

"I don't need you to be concerned over me."

I smiled. What a liar. I then turned my attention to Maxine who was looking at me with a pouty face.

He always does this to me. He does something which makes me hurt him then makes me feel guilty about it. I sighed and held Maxine's cheek.

"I'm sorry Maxine but you've really crossed the line this time. How many times have I told you to never use your power on something as trivial as this?"

"Why are you siding with him Cherura?! If I didn't do that he would've killed me! Killed me, you hear!"

Maxine was still the same I lent my hand as I helped him stand up. A second later the mark on his face from my slap was gone. The peacock Clan has the ability to twist one's thoughts and make them do as they bid as well as regenerative powers. But it all comes at a price. Members of the Pecaock clan are known to die young as their power takes away years from their life.

I hated the son of a bitch Maxine but I didn't want him to die any time soon.

"Maxine! Maxine, dear! You're future wife has come to get you!"

Maxine his behind me.

"Please shield me Cherura!"

A dolled up Edola came into view. Frankly she looked like a Goddess with her elegant clothing and voluptuous body. I looked down at my short stature and flat chest with a sigh.

Whatever.

I then pushed Maxine in front of me and watched Edola hug his face close to her chest. I chuckled. I hope that he can breathe. I sat down on the ground. Well it seems like we found Maxine faster than I thought. That's a positive.

"A monster!"

I turned to the location where I heard the screams. A young man was shining with a blue glow as his eyes shone with bloodlust. I stood up quickly.

Damn it Silvius! If any of the guards find him, he's as good as dead! I need to stop him!
