<And Have a Happy New Year!>

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

A nine year old boy and girl stared at each other in anger at one another.

The boy, n.a.k.e.d like the day he was born, had green flames swimming all over him in a protective manner. A long green blade edge katana was on his hand, he tightly hold onto it's handle, all the while controlling the green lotus core flame around him to surge it's heat. One thing that came good out of his months of torment was getting flame immunity. Well, flames that are under the heavenly flames but with how rare it is, it could be said that his totally immune by fire attacks.

(A/N: Welp, good luck!)

The girl, who was clothed completely with 'his' black hoodie cloak, had her black shining eyes instantly turned to the color of gold.

Wait, when was her eyes colored black? Xiao Yan shook his head before staring back at her, clenching his right hand that wielded the handle of his new spirit essence even more, he had not noticed the spirit mark at the back of his right hand glowing very vibrant green.

The temperature around the girl also seem to rise at the same level as his, which caused Xiao Yan's eyes to widened in surprise, 'her' cloak seem to flutter around as if there were some wild wind blowing around her. She took out her arms under the black cloak, showing two delicate and jade like skin, clenching and unclenching both of her fists two golden basketball sized fireballs appeared on top of her palms.

Xiao Yan's eyes seem to almost popped out of it's sockets as he felt the heat coming from her had affected him.

'N-No shitting way! Her flames shouldn't be this hot! There's no other flames that can surpass mine unless...' The conclusion of what he thought had to come to a pause. As the little girl in front of him started to walk towards him.

Staring at her angered cute little face, despite the feeling of dread and helplessness coming back to bite him in the a.s.s, Xiao Yan couldn't help but open his mouth to further dig deeper into the hole he had unknowingly dug.

'I should really listen to Tang San. Learn of your enemies before provoking them. This situation really was the perfect advice for it. But, it's strange...' Staring at those golden fiery eyes of hers seem to tug something deep inside of Xiao Yan. It wasn't his heart, that's for sure. He might be shameless, an asshole, schemer and whole lot crap but he ain't a lolicon.

He can appreciate the beauty of girls and l.u.s.t after some of the women who are at the right age of eighteen and more but he won't go after lolis. For the reason was, they just can't make him have his heart beat faster nor have l.e.w.d thoughts. He might be a man of culture but he ain't someone who like little girls, simple as that.

Also, he's nine years old. His hormones didn't get to both of his head at this point of time and having the mind of a seventeen year old had made him more m.a.t.u.r.e than to get fl.u.s.tered by little girls.

Anyways, back to the topic. The tugging inside Xiao Yan's heart wasn't something he had ever felt before. This hadn't happened back when he first met her. So, why? Why was it that he keeps getting more emotional the more he interact with the girl? It was like, he knew this girl. He knew her before coming into this world. Heck, it was like...

Shaking his head to get his mind out of the gutter, Xiao Yan readied his katana by the side and narrowed his eyes. Even though he felt his back was entirely covered in sweat. His eyes focused on the girl walking towards him.

'15-20 feet? Shit. She's not in my range. Looks like I'm just gonna wait for her.' There it was again. The sudden tugging inside of him seem to hasten at the thought of him hurting her. Xiao Yan's sharpen as he thought.

'Who are you...?'

Unknown to Xiao Yan however, the girl felt somewhat troubled as well.

'What is this? What is this feeling in my c.h.e.s.t? As if it were a fragile glass that would break the moment I seriously hurt this perverted human...' The girl felt the uncomfortable feeling in her c.h.e.s.t seem grow.

She hadn't felt this feeling before when she first confronted the perverted human back at brown furred moose's territory. No. It started the moment he left that cocoon of a green flames.

And no it wasn't because that he was n.a.k.e.d or anything, it did however caused a massive blush to momentarily appear on her face before her statement at the human being perverted was more firm than ever in her mind, but when he suddenly appeared out of the ground with that happy smile of his, a sudden feeling of fondness seem to washed over her.

In her all her years of living in this world, this was the first time that she felt this way.

'Who are you really...?' She narrowed her at Xiao Yan and vowed to find out.

Xiao Yan returned the look back at her before a confident smile appeared on his face, even though he was sweating but that wasn't technically true as the heavenly flame would just vaporized it.

He slightly tilted his head up and he arrogantly said: "Oh? You're approaching me? Instead of running away, you're coming right to me?"

The girl halted for a moment as tick appeared on top of one her eyebrows and before Xiao Yan could say anything else, two purple shining circles appeared surrounding her.

Xiao Yan's mouth opened and he stared at the girl in front of him with disbelief and fear. He was going to apologize before he was suddenly cut off by the girl, who now continued walking towards him, saying with a heavy voice.

"Why not? I can't beat the shit out of you without getting closer." The moment the little girl said that Xiao Yan felt like he was hit by lightning.

'O-Oh, OH MY GOD!' Xiao Yan's eyes brighten in excitement as the smile on his face seem to be more natural than before. He raised his head a bit more higher and acting as arrogant as he ever could in this life and the previous, he stared at the girl with disdain and contempt which had gained him another tick mark from her.

The heat coming from her seem to raised even more.

Xiao Yan let out a smirk and said.

"Oh ho! Then come as close as you like."

Xiao Yan surged his spirit power towards his spirit essence and green flames suddenly burst to life from the blade, causing his smirk widened even more.

The spirit mark at the back of his right hand glowed even more as it revealed the mark of a flame with a sword in the center of it.

Suddenly a purple glow glowed around Xiao Yan, causing him to be momentarily surprise and shock before adrenaline rush to his head.

'I have said this once and I'm a gonna say it again, today is THE BEST. DAY. OF. MY. LIFE!' Xiao Yan stepped forward as his flaming green sword had made the surrounding temperature to raise once more to the point of matching itself with the girl.

She stopped just 10 feet away from Xiao Yan, now glaring at him as she look at his arrogant demeanor, and with a sigh she said.

"Xun Er."

"Huh?" Xiao Yan looked at the girl, Xun Er, confused.

Xun Er rolled her eyes and merely stated.

"My name."

Xiao Yan eyes lit up in understanding and replied.

"Xiao Yan."

Xun Er nodded and without any hesitation, she urged the spirit power within her to strengthen her lower body and a moment later, she dashed towards him. The golden tendril flames behind her followed in succession. Now moving to drill itself at Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan chuckled as he also urged his spirit power towards his lower body to strengthen it and also circulated the Mysterious Heaven Skill to strengthen the rest of his body.

The moment that they clashed, a great sound wave echoed from their attacks.

Xiao Yan met her golden flames with his green flames. Xun Er with her golden flaming fists to his sword. His b.a.r.e n.a.k.e.d body against her cloaked covered body.

Their battle, has officially began.
