Vision Of Escaflowne Fan Fiction ❯ God Of Destruction ❯ Cat fight ( Chapter 4 )

Karacoo was waiting for Tamiku to make the first move and didn't have to wait very long. Tamiku charged right at her attempting to run over her and stomp her into the ground. Karacoo easily jumped to the side and Tamiku rammed right into a table. The table was bolted to the ground and since that table only came up to Tamiku's knee when she ran into it her kneecap was shattered and her leg bent right around in the other direction. Tamiku was shrieking in pain but Karacoo wasn't done yet. If Tamiku were permitted to live she would only come after Karacoo again once she had healed up.

Karacoo slammed into the screeching Tamiku with all her weight forcing her to the ground. With her leg in the shape in was in she wouldn't be able to get back up for a while if at all. Karacoo grabbed a dagger off of one of the hollering fans and plunged it into Tamiku's throat.

She watched Tamiku die choking on the blood flowing from her throat. She smirked a little. She had just been waiting for the day Tamiku would challenge her. They had never liked each other to begin with. It was only a matter of time until she was killed. But Karacoo's smirk faded as she once again realized that she had killed a once living person. She hated to kill people but it was the only thing she was good at and the innkeeper would pay her for entertaining his guests or just feed her if he was feeling cheap. She sighed as she made her way through the crowd of people collecting their winnings or paying up from the fight. Some of the people who had bet on Tamiku were glaring at her as she passed but she was getting used to it.

Dilandau had found the fight quite interesting. He had never really seen women fight and when he had it had only made his disliking for them increase but it would seem as though the women on this planet could take care of themselves and fight just as well as most of the men on other planets. He was actually quite impressed. He had finally made his way to the front desk. He could get a room for the night and get some of his questions answered but before he forgets he would have to go tell Inferno they would decide what to do with this place tomorrow after he had a decent chance to look around this place. And maybe if those guard's bodies were still there Inferno would like to have them for a little snack. Maybe he could bring Tamiku's body as well if he got someone else to carry it that is. He wasn't about to get his hands dirty.

The innkeeper was smiling to himself as he watched all his guests getting what they bet on, hearing once in a while a, "This is the best inn ever!" or, "No one beats this place when it comes to fights!" Dilandau made his way up to him. He looked down upon his new and short guest.

"What can I do for you, Sir?"

"Well you can start by giving me a room, preferably one that won't have furniture twice my size." Was Dilandau's nicest reply.

"Well sir, most of our rooms are built for people up to 10ft tall but I do have one room. Karacoo usually uses it but she doesn't really matter. She's kind of like a pet here. She's completely dependant on this inn for survival or so we've made her think so you can use that room."

"For being such a good fighter she doesn't seem to get very much respect, but that's her problem. Fine I'll take that room. And as my payment I'll take that mutilated corps off of your hands so long as you have someone else carry it, I'm not going to get my hands dirty."

"That's excellent! I usually have a hard time getting rid of all the dead corpses around here. Just don't tell me what your going to do with it and it's a deal. I'll have Karacoo carry it for you; she should be able to handle it."

"Fine."

~Maybe this Karacoo girl can answer my questions. It seems she's very obedient. ~

"KARACOO!! Get over here!"

Karacoo appeared to come out of nowhere. She was standing in a dark corner nearby. Dilandau was very upset at himself for not knowing she was there. Normally he'd be able to tell if someone was anywhere form 20 to 50ft away from him but he had no idea that Karacoo was there and she was only a few feet away from him. He must be getting a little out of practice.

"Yes. I'll take the body wherever he wants it but I'm not very pleased that you gave away my only place to sleep. Where do you expect me to sleep now? You already owe me from my fight."

"Yes, yes. I will pay you and you can either sleep on the floor or do this man's every bidding and possibly be aloud to share his room with him if he so chooses. Or if you really want you can go sleep outside in the forest where all those dangerous animals live and finally be out on your own."

Dilandau looked at the two with slight amusement at where this conversation was heading.

"I could be on my own if I chose to be! I'm just not quite ready yet. I still need a bit more fighting experience before then, just as you have said before. Now if you don't mind I have a 10ft dead body to carry since I know you couldn't do it yourself if your life depended on it!"

Karacoo turned to Dilandau slightly red from her little talk with the innkeeper. She bowed her head slightly to him before speaking.

"Sir, where would you like me to take this body?"

"You can grab it and fallow me. I'll show you where I want it."
