Kolulu Bell: Chapter 15 Lora's last adventure

While both Lori and Kolulu were walking about, they have been walking through their neighborhood. "So Lori, I've been thinking about a lot of things that's happened over the last few months since I've returned back to the battle" As Kolulu started to speak, Lori turned to the pink mamodo. "Man, after hearing about Zatch and Kiyo's adventure, after a few days, we needed a break from all this! Plus, we even got new helpers like Wonrei and Li-en" Lori stated.

"Let's not forget about Tia and Megumi" Kolulu reminded Lori laughed while bumping her head. She truly liked it a lot. "Yeah, thanks" Lori replied.

While the two continued to walk, they were heading towards a flower store to pick up some lotus flowers. "I can't believe they come out this cheap" Lori said.

"Yeah, it's so nice of the shop keeper to let us by them 50% off" Kolulu said.

It seemed like things were going well ever since Kolulu came back to the human world. At first it was how it should be, until the day Lori found Kolulu's book and found out she is a mamodo. And when she returned back to the Mamodo World, she thought she never come back, but then she did. When she had her first real battle in her controlled state, they discovered a major enemy that wishes to destroy. And so far, battles they faced, they became stronger and stronger. But it was not enough yet. But they'll get there soon. Right now, Lori and Kolulu wanted to spend this good moment.

When both of the sisters were trying to get back, is when Lori heard someone calling to her. "Lori!" She heard a familiar voice. So she turned around to see the voice belonged to Dionysus. But he wasn't wearing his usual clothing, but rather a plaid blue work suit. "Dionysus?" Lori spoke confused. It's been months since she seen him. Last time she saw him was with her battle with him and Lora. "Hey, it's Dionysus! Hi!" Kolulu waved to the man she remembered battling with.

"I'm surprised to see you again" The traveler said as he walked to Lori. The teenage girl blushed a bit and rubbed held her head as if she is hiding herself. "Yeah, quite surprised" She replied back to him.

"Hey, Dionysus" Kolulu interrupted and nudged him. "Where's Lora? Why is she not here with you?" Kolulu asked. That name, made his head down. Lori and Kolulu were a bit stunned from just the mention of that name. "Is something wrong?" The pink mamodo asked. That wasn't the kind of reaction they show from the mention of the name of a mamodo, unless it meant...her book must've burn.

"Kolulu, I need to talk to Lori alone. But you'll learn it soon. Just not today though" Dionysus stated to Kolulu. She can see the expression to tell something happened to Lora, but she didn't want to believe it. Then she and Lori heard a beeping car. "Sounds like my ride is here. Better hop on" Dionysus finished as the driver Apollo pulled down the window, wearing his orange suit. "Hey, buddy. Wanna ride somewhere?" Apollo asked.

"Mochinoki Park will do" Dionysus said as he got in the front seat. Lori and Kolulu got in the back seats. Apollo then drove there to the Mochinoki Park.

Both Lori and Dionysus got on the park bench where they looked up to the sky. "So, what did you want to tell me?" Lori asked. Dionysus signed. He could remember her bubbly laugh, and how she saved his life then. "Well, the thing is...Lora's book been turned to ash" As he spoke, Lori felt devastated. Someone destroyed her book. She gasped in shocked. She wasn't sure how it was possible to beat the duo. He had the greatest raw power no other mamodo would handle.

"You see Lori, after she, I came to Apollo who became the president of financial conglomerate and gave me a job. The traveling duos we used to be ceased to exist. But that's not the real reason I came to you" As Dionysus started changing his subject. Lori needed to hear this. "The mamodo who burn my book...looked like Kolulu" Dionysus continued. Lori looked surprised. "But, compared to the lookalike, Kolulu is a tender caring girl when she is not in her battle form. But the lookalike however without her battle form is only a mask, like she is a separate evil monster who is born from Kolulu" Dionysus finished 'Kolulu's...double dark counterpart did this to Lora?' Lori thought to herself.

"If you don't mind me asking, but do you feel comfortable telling me how it happened?" Lori spoke to get the answer. Dionysus closed his eyes shut for a moment. For him, this could be some sort of warning to her if they end up seeing her. "It was a week ago when we were traveling to England. It was a time that hurt me forever" DIonysus started to explain his side of the story. He could never forget that cute she made.

FLASH BACK

"Hey, come on, Dio!" She giggled and ran up ahead. "Okay, slow down. You know I worry about you" Dionysus laughed as well as he followed her. It was like nothing could ruin their day...But then this happened. "Kolulu?" Lora called. Dionysus looked up close as he saw what looked like Kolulu. But rather different. Her hair is red and is wearing a mental and...oh no.

"Hey, Kolulu!" As Dionysus called, then something snapped Lora back to reality when she notice something is wrong. "Wait! Something is wrong!" Lora called to her book owner. He wasn't sure if he should believe the silver hair mamodo. He just ran up to check on this mamodo. A mistake he wished he never did. "Hey Kolulu!" Dionysus called back once again.

The red mental lookalike with red hair stopped for a moment. "You got the wrong girl!" Her voice...that sounded like a different girl, a bit of Kolulu, but dark and lower. Dionysus felt frighten when she spoke and stood back with Lora. "How dare you mistake me for a sniveling little weakling of a mamodo!" She shouted as she turned and with her lined face from the bottom of her eyes and the way she showed her fury was quite frightening even more as she gritted her fang too.

Dionysus was not sure what he is looking at, but realized it's not Kolulu. 'Okay, so it's not Kolulu. She looks like her, but the clothes are different, like Zatch was wearing, and the way she is giving me those evil eyes. Kolulu doesn't have eyes like that. If that's not Kolulu, then who the heck is she then' Dionysus walked back slowly.

"So, tell me!" The mamodo named Meister began. "Did you see Kolulu around?" Then she started to grin. "You must've burn her book, did you" Then she started to chuckled.

Lora then gripped her fist. "No! We didn't do it! They proved too strong for us, so we had no choice but to surrender! We fought with honor and respect! They were great team who beated us fair and square, despite the relentless power we posses!" Lora exclaimed.

Meister's eyes were then hidden in the shadows where they are invisible. "Haa! Team work?! That's just weakling tactic and plain idiotic!" The red hair girl insulted and chuckled. "I bet you two are quite weaker as the same as you look! It surprises me she decided to even go to a battle after all! Fighting weak opponents just like a certain someone who I hate the most!"

"Yeah, well you don't seem so tough to me, freak!" Dionysus insulted back. "Hmm?" This brought Meister's attention. "Let's go, Lora. I had enough of this girl" Dionysus suggest. "Yeah, me too" Lora agreed.

When there is one thing Meister doesn't like, are weaklings and those who call her freak. She gripped her fist and chattered her teeth. "Aren't you gonna battle?" She spoke back to them.

"Sorry, we don't have time wasting our powers by the likes of you. We just want to enjoy our day here" Dionysus stated. "Yeah! Go fight someone else! We have better things than fight you, ya Kolulu wannabe!" Lora hmph her head to keep from seeing her face.

"You know, just for that comment, I'm not letting you walk away from this!" The red hair lookalike snapped her fingers. While Dionysus didn't pay attention, it was then he stood back when he saw someone. "Wha? What the?" He was suddenly stopped when a girl in a sailer uniform holding a book that's as red as Zatch's stared at them. This girl, she looked almost like Lori, but except she has pigtails. "I do quite admire your guts for talking back to me! When I meet tough guys like you, it puts me in the mood to destroy your book!" Meister grinned darkly.

Dionysus wasn't if he is seeing double. 'Okay, this is turning into deja vu. She looks like Lori, so maybe there's something to those girls' Dionysus thought to himself. Lora was shaking a bit. "Uhh, Dio, what do we do?" Lora asked scaredly. He stood and placed a hand on her to comfort her. "Well Lora, I don't think this is a fight we can walk out of" Dionysus stated. He only wished he could get out of this. While he's been through many battles he wants to avoid, but this one, is not the one he would ever want to be apart of.

FLASH BACK END

"Wait, what? So she had a partner who looks just like me?" Lori asked surprised. "Yeah, the moment I saw her, I notice she had something hidden, like a secret she holds" Dionysus closed his eyes. "As soon as I realized that...the fight began"

FLASH BACK

Two opponents were staring right each other, in a pasture field, almost like the place where Zeno and Dufort battle Apollo and Rops. Dionysus and Lora were getting ready to face Meister and her book owner. The red mamodo chuckled, like she knows she would destroy their book.

"Just so you know, this is only a demonstration!" Meister grinned. The book owner held the red book and it started to glow. 'Zeruk!' As soon as it was chanted, Meister started to growled while her eyes turned red and two lines appeared under her eyes. Dionysus and Lora were a bit scared of what's happening. Usually when Kolulu transform it was instant, but for a monster, the process only gets monstrous. Meister's claws were unleashed, then she grew bigger and tore off her mental. Meister roared as her transformation was complete. The way she transformed only scared Lora and Dionysus. "Dionysus, I'm scared!" Lora cried. 'Whoa! That was madness! That was more horrifying than when Kolulu transforms!'

Meister chuckles as crouches her back and grips her fist and unloads her claws again. Her claws were black and she looks 2 inches taller than Kolulu's battle form. "Well, now that I got more comfy, it's your turn" The sadistic mamodo grinned.

"We can't give in! We gotta fight!" Lora nodded and got back to her sense. "Let's go! Ruguron!" Dionysus chanted the spell and Lora shot the little rocks from her hand to the sky, then came some bolder sized meteors coming down towards them, but without effort, Meister slashed the meteors into pieces. "More! Ruguron!" Lora shot more meteors up ahead of them.

Meister once again slashed them to rubble once again. "RUGURON!" Lora kept shooting their meteors, but all that was just annoying Meister. She grabbed one and crushed it with her bare hands. "Is that all you got!?" Meister said intimidated. Lora and Dionysus gasped. "If you're not gonna fight me for real, then I'll destroy your book here!" Meister threaten and aimed her fist at them. Then came this. "Zerusen!" Meister shot the Zerusen spell towards the raw power duo.

Both of them dodged the attack. 'That's the Zerusen spell, just like Kolulu's!' The jacket wearing wonderer think to himself. But then when it hit the mountain, it caused an explosion to fall down towards them. 'Okay, not the same. It's a bomb attack and more powerful too!' Lora gasped and ran to her owner. "Dio!" Lora called while worried and grabbed a slab of the earth and used it blocked the mountain rocks from crushing them both. "You're gonna have to do a lot better than tht to beat us!" Lora shouted at them.

FLASH BACK END

"But how?! You're not force to be reckoned with by any mamodo! No strategy of any kind could even take you down!" Lori exclaimed, not wanting to believe, even coming from Dionysus. "I know! I was always the more dominate of all! When me and Lora had a chance, we were about to take their book, but then the horror happened!" Dionysus continued.

FLASH BACK

The battle continued on, and with everything he tried to threw at her, non of his dominating abilities were working. His attempts were just child's play to the dark mamodo. She continued to grin at the wonderer and the green wearing blouse mamodo. They seemed nervous as the battle continued. "Hey, Kari, isn't this a blast? It's been awhile since we had such good fight!" Meister stated to her book owner. The pigtailed girl continued to star at them with her widen pupils green pupils.

'Why is she giving me the weirdest feeling? She is making me nervous. What is she?' He thought to himself. He got back to being bold and opened his book. "Lora, let's not let them out of our sight! Let's used this spell!" Dionysus suggest. "Right!" Lora replied as she cupped her wrist together. The book green glowed and Dionysus chanted the book. "Rugurontsu!" As the spell was called, Lora shot mini bits out of her hands to the sky, which in turn turned into meteor shower.

Meister smirked while the book owner was walking towards them, or so it seemed. Lora and Dionysus were surprised she is walking to the meteor attack. "Huh? What are they doing?" Lora questioned. "I don't know? Dose she want to lose?" Dionysus responded to his green blouse mamodo. But as soon as it did seemed like she was going to walk to them, suddenly, she did this, reflecting one meteor with just her palm. "What in the world?!" Dionysus said in shocked when he saw her reflecting the attack. "Is she..." The pigtailed girl reflected them like it was just bubbles to her. "How is she reflecting those attacks!" Dionysus questioned again. "She is countering everything faster than I could predict them!" Lora said.

Dionysus and Lora stood back from the enemy and their book glowed. "Lora, we have to hit them with out most powerful spell!" Dionysus paniced. "I agreed, let go for it!" Lora replied and got ready to do it. Dionysus roared to the sky. "Gigano Ruguron!" Lora raised her hands up, the coming out of the clouds came the giant meteor that was entering the Earth's atmosphere, hurdling towards Meister and her book owner. "Give it up, I know your spells and everything!" Dionysus quoted to them.

Meister's book owner stared, not untimidated by the size or it's power. "Meister..." She called to her mamodo. The red mamodo grinned and raised her fist up to aim at the meteor attack. "Zerusen!" The same rocket...rather the bomb fist spell launched towards the giant meteor. It caused the meteor to be destroyed. Both Lora and Dionysus gasped in panic while in awe from seeing that happening. After seeing the remains of what the meteor falls on, soon turning to rubble. Meister smirked, proving for what she is capable of.

Out of that, came a thud that sounded like a punch. The green book got tossed up to the air. Next came the scene with Meister's owner pinning him to the wall as he grabbed him neck there. Then came the same thud with Meister pinning down Lora, stomping her beneath her heel, definitely. Lora yelp as she got stomped while Meister tighten it's grip while chuckling evilly.

Dionysus was struggling to get off her grip. But then he felt something. 'What's this? What kind of feeling am I sensing?' Dionysus wondered. Then, he started to laugh. "Well, this is surprising. You don't have emotion, but your arm is shaking for some reason" Dionysus laughed. "I know when someone has true hidden feelings that are deep away. Kari, right? Well, I gotta say, the way you don't fear someone truly makes you a terrifying foe! But what doesn't changed is the fact that despite it all, your expression is only a mask that hides the real you, hiding of what a scared little girl you truly are" Dionysus grinned. That is where it struck a nerve on Kari. It made her expression go from motionless to rage. She got real stern for his words, so she threw him to the ground, then Meister kicked Lora towards her book owner.

Kari got ready to use a more powerful spell. "Zeo-" But just when she was gonna use the spell, Meister stopped her. "Hold it! Why use Zeo Zerusen Spell?! It's a waste of our with them!" Meister quoted to Kari, so she calmed down back to emotionless.

'Now's my chance!' Dionysus tried to reach for the spell book, but not before this. "Zerusen" Meister shot the bomb fist spell at the green spell book, making the explosion burn the book. Dionysus gasped sadly. He then turned to Lora. "Dio! Dio! Noooo!" Lora cried and started to fade. Dionysus' tears dripped down from his face. "Lora!" He hugged her tightly. "Dio, I don't wanna leave you. You mean everything to me! I love you!" Lora cried. "I know, it was great having you around" After that, Meister find it to disgusting to her, so she turned to Kari to finish this. "Zerusen!" The red fiend mamodo shot the spell one last time and destroyed the book completely. Then Lora disappeared. "Diooooooooooo!" Lora said her last words and Dionysus gasped and got on his knees and his hands on the ground and cried.

Meister then changed back from her wicked form and laughed evilly. She magically levitated all the remains of the shredded mental and turned it into a widen cloth that surrounded both her and Kari and vanished without a trace, leaving the heart broken Dionysus to cry more. Now all alone. "LOOOOOORRAAAAAA!"

FLASH BACK END

Lori started to tear after listening that entire tragedy of what happened. "Just like that. They vanished, laughing at my pain! I never even got to thank her for when she saved my life at that icy forest! It was to much for me to handle it" Dionysus finished his entire story.

Hearing that name, Kari, the Kari, her sister Kari. That had to be her. And she is owner this dark douppleganger. Lori could not stand for this anymore. "They are monsters!" Lori shouted. It brought Dionysus' attention to Lori. "The way they would trash books for the fun of it makes me sick! They won't get away with this! Not while me and Kolulu are still in the battle! If we see them, we won't let them get out of our sight!" Lori exclaimed.

Dionysus smiled. "Well, I didn't know you had this much determination in you. I'm glad I came to you after all" He said, feeling quite a bit better. While it seemed like it was quiet to them, however, Kolulu heard the entire thing. The entire story of what she did to her friend Lora. It made the pink mamodo grip her fist. "Meister, where ever you are, I will make you pay!" Kolulu promised to herself. She looked up to think about the times Lora and Kolulu were holding hands and running around.
