"But, before we can let you go to the island, you must pass a trial of great difficulty...the rumors of an ancient sea monster are true, we are in control of it." It said as huge squid that strangely resembled Gooper Blooper from Super Mario Sunshine emerged from the water.

"W-Well, Moon? Shall we try and beat it?" Kyoya asked as he was regaining his composure, drawing his swords, and readying himself for combat.

"Uh, right," the witch answered. She sized up the creature, seeing what she could do to inflict the most damage. The arms seemed like weak spots, followed by the back and base of its neck.

Seth snarled at the squid, crouching low as his fur stood on end.

"I'll focus on its arms, you take care of its neck." Kyoya said, jumping towards the creature, slashing at in relentlessly. He seemed completely different from a few moments ago.

Moon, glad she'd taken off her shoes, ran up to the water. Wherever her feet landed, the water froze to create solid support as she raced toward the sea monster. She avoided the tentacles and honed in on the thing's side. The teen circled around it as Kyoya kept it occupied. Seth would have to sit this one out. Her demeanor took on an indifferent persona.

"Moon! There's a scar on the back of its neck, try hitting it to see if it'll do anything!" Kyoya said just as he was flung by one of the tentacles, being thrown back into the water, he was mostly okay, except for a hurt leg.

She was now behind the squid, and spotted the scar he had told her about. Tilting her head to one side, Drop used the spell the teacher had taught Kyoya, the one she had refused to do. The ice solidified in her hand, so she aimed and threw it, chanting for make a gust of frigid wind to carry it farther and fast enough to pierce the monster's skin.

The attack on the scar caused the squid to flee, the pain being too much for the thing to take. Kyoya was struggling to stay on his feet as the monster fled, "You did it, Moon! Fantastic, absolutely fantastic!" He shouted.

The witch made her way back to shore, ice still letting her stay above the surf. She stopped a short ways away from the sand, stood for a second, then turned back around toward Kyoya. She held out a hand for him to take, eyes still blue but not quiet the same as the other times they'd stayed that way.

"Thank you..." Kyoya smiled at her and took her hand, "I'm sincerely glad we're on the same time. You're an amazing warrior!"

"I learn by watching," she replied with a smile. Pulling him up out of the ocean, Moon made room for him to stand on the ice with her. "Can you walk back to shore on your leg?"

"I'll be fine, it's just a mild sprain, I think." Kyoya said in response.


"How much longer before the two hit it off?" The two in the boat as each other in unison, but neither give off an answer before turning back to the duo. "We're impressed...you not only found its weak spot, but also took advantage of its biggest weakness..perhaps you two can be of help on the island...?"

"Help with what?" she asked, electing to ignore their first comment.

"The island's been overrun with creatures like what you just fought, overwhelming the ones living there. Perhaps you'd be willing to lend a hand and help kill them?" It said in response.

"If it gets us on the island, I'm all for it." Kyoya said, not looking up as he made his leg a cast made of hardened sand.

(I'm so sorry, I've gotta run again, I'm not sure when I'll be back.)

"Alright, we agree," Drop told them. "How do we get there?"

Seth sat at her feet in rigid posture almost like he was one of England's royal guards on duty.

"Hop on board and we'll reach there shortly." A small door opened on the back of the boat.

Kyoya limped up into the ship, ready to continue fighting.

Freezing a stretch of ocean water for Seth, Moon Drop saw Kyoya's struggle, but knew he wouldn't say a thing about it. She took his arm and put it around her shoulder so he could lean his weight on her to walk better, placing a supporting hand around his waist for additional assistance.

"Sand doesn't make a great cast...I appreciate the help, Moon." Kyoya said, the slightest shade of red could be seen in his cheeks.

The two shades driving the boat snickered slightly, obviously aware Kyoya's true feelings for Moon.

"No problem," she replied with a smile. Her cheeks grew heated by their close proximity, but she refrained from blushing herself.
Her eyes landed on the two men. She knew they were full-blown shades, as she knew they knew her to be a shade-in-training. There was a certain aura that came from each of them, like the one around her mother.

Seth hesitated on the ice as his claws could hardly get a grip, but he eventually joined them all on the boat. He stood by Moon and Kyoya, wearily watching the men.

Soon after, the boat arrived at the island, the aura felt around the previous squid could be felt all over the island, though it was much weaker. Kyoya used his sword as a crutch, "Alright, let's see what we can get done here." Kyoya said as he got off, the two shades pointed to where the majority of them were.
