Hey there~! I've updated this in the same day as I published Jinx! Wow! I've been uploading fast these days! Well since there's nothing more to worry about in vacation, I've got A LOT of time to write stories. So expect some fast updates from me. Plus, my friend and I are already working on our crossover fic. I hope you look forward to it, especially to Inazuma-Hetalia fans out there! Author's Note to be continued! Enjoy!

"Yuria, how's Yuuka?" He asked. But instead of a reply from his question, Yuria said something else. "Kirino-san, behind you!" She shouted. Kirino turned back to the monster but he was too late. The monster had hit him on the head, hard and he fell to the ground, almost unconscious. His vision is already blurry and he saw the monster getting closer and closer to the twins.

From his blurry vision he can see the movement of the monster, it raised a hand and its claws grew longer. He stretched out his hand, like trying to reach them and said. "Yuuka, Yuria, hang on…"

He forced himself to stand despite the pain he feel on his head. The monster gets ready to attack the girls and Yuria held her sister tighter. It slashes its claws but didn't hit its target as something got in its way. It was Kirino! He managed to take on the attack instead of the girls.

"Kirino-san!" Yuria cried at the injured boy. He was hit on the arm and it was bleeding very badly.

"Don't go near them. If you want to hurt them, you have to get through me. I won't let you hurt them. Even if I die here, I will protect them." He says as he forces himself again to stand up. But this time, he can't. He injury has gotten bad. "Yuuka, Yuria, run! Now!" He shouted, blood was dripping from his mouth.

The monster ignored the two girls escaping and heads to Kirino. Slowly it makes a step. Kirino can't do anything about it now, he can't even stand. But he has to protect them, no matter what. At least if I die here, i will give the girls some time to get as far away as they could. He thought and looked at the monster closing on him.

He closed his eyes to not see his end. The beast lifts again its arm to attack and slashes on him, aiming for his chest but a gust of wind somehow acted as a shield that sent the monster backwards. Kirino felt it and opened his eyes. The beast had hit a nearby tree. "What happened?" He asked and he could feel the pain on his head and arms slowly fading away. Has he unlocked his element?

He looked at his hands in shock and saw something glowing on his pocket. It was the wind gem. Once he had put it out, it floated and emitted a brighter light and turned into a necklace. It slowly landed on his hands.

"He has unlocked it!" Endou said. He was watching from a ball of crystal the situation on Kirino and finally, he has activated his element.

"Have I-" Kirino, still can't believe of this questioned but he heard a voice from nowhere.

"Wind, the element of passion. One unlocks it in strong emotion for martyrdom for others." Kirino identified the voice coming from Endou. "Embrace the power within you as you can manipulate the wind and weather and defy gravity with the use of wind currents." As he hears this, he wore the necklace.

"Martyrdom for others?" Kirino looked at the wind gem pendant and remembered the time he took the hit instead of the sisters: when he decided to protect them with his own life, an act of martyrdom. It is the key to unlocking the element of passion, wind.

No more time to think. The beast it getting up! It made him very angry and charged at Kirino but was avoided by him. Kirino suddenly disappeared from his current position which confused the monster. It looked sideways but he's not there. From behind, it was hit with a ball of wind that came from above. Kirino was flying. He's already flying at the first few seconds of release.

"Take this!" He shouted and sent out a much bigger ball of wind. But this time, it was prepared for the attack and used its claws to slash the ball. This continued until both sides are getting tired.

If I keep on attacking like this, I'll eventually get weaker. He thought. Then he remembered Endou saying about wind manipulation. So that means, not only could he make balls of wind but also…

"I got it!" He exclaimed and raised his hand in the air. He seems to be calling out for something in mid-air but noting came out, or so we thought. If you look on closely, some wind patterns are forming on his hand in the shape of a sword. A sword made of wind? An invisible sword? It might just work!

Kirino flew a little bit lower to reach the monster to which it finds an opportunity to attack. But this time, it was Kirino who has prepared from this. From its previous attacks, it usually uses its right claw to attack and left to defend. So by lowering its defense, he can then attack like mad until it is finished.

As expected, it attacks with the right. Through flight, Kirino dodges it and aims the blade for the unguarded left claw. Fortunately, his weapon was enough to cut through its nail because of the lack of guard, thus finally lowering its defense. He smirked in success but the monster wasn't happy about it. It roars into the air, echoing in the forests.

"Kirino-san. I hope he's alright." Yuria looked up at the sky as she hears the monster roar. She was holding Yuuka was had her hands covering her ears. Yuria led her farther away from the battle field, hoping to see Kirino again once this ends.

Kirino then goes for the right claw and attacks it with his blade. He then noticed the claws on the right were much stronger and sharper. He keeps on aiming at it in hope to finally break it. But he didn't notice the left to suddenly punch him and sent him backwards. Luckily, he was able to fly upwards but due to the broken remains left on its hand, Kirino was badly injured on the face, having a terrible bruise on his cheek.

"So, without the claws, the left can now attack too. " He commented as he rubbed his injured cheek. But now, his strategy was ruined. With two arms attacking simultaneously, he can't strike easily at its weak spot, the heart.

Another crazy idea lit up on his mind. Manipulation of wind does not only include turning it into weapons and stuff, but also creating powerful winds that send enemies flying away. "I guess it's worth giving a try." He says and held his hands at the monster. Then gusts of wind surrounded it, getting stronger and stronger by the moment forming a powerful whirlwind. The monster is slowly being lifted up into the air. Once he throws his hands to the left, the whirlwind went to the same direction, throwing the beast with it deep into the left side of forest. Never to be seen again for a long time.

"I-I actually beat a monster!" Kirino said, still cannot believe in what had happened.

"Oh right! I have to look for Yuria and Yuuka." With the use of flying he heads off to the direction of where they went. He looked for some pink and blue figures walking among the trees and when he finally spotted them, called out their name.

"Yuuka! Yuria!"

"Kirino-san!" Yuria looked from above and unbelievably saw Kirino flying. "He's flying!" She exclaimed. Yuuka looked up too and her eyes were amazed; the tears were gone from her eyes.

Once Kirino got down, the two girls hugged him. "Kirino-san, you're flying!" Yuuka said.

"How did you do that?" Yuria jumped up and down, waiting for an answer.

"You see, I just actually discovered my powers during the fight. It was very surprising." He said in the simplest way he could but was enough for them to understand.

"You were so amazing! Did you defeat the monster?"

"I didn't but I did send him far away from here so he won't be bothering you for long time."

"Sugoi! You're so cool!"

"But we're still not home yet." Yuuka looked down. She must've missed her family so much.

"Take my hand." Kirino said to both of them. The two were confused but does so. As they hold on to it, Kirino said to hold on tight. He slowly lifts them up into the air and the fly up high.

"Wow! The view is beautiful!" Yuria exclaimed.

"The trees all look so tiny!" Yuuka smiled. Kirino chuckled at the two's expression. It really is fun flying this high. This can't even match the sensation you feel on an airplane. Here, you are free to go wherever you want. You can feel the wind blowing through your hair. You can see everything below with your own eyes.

"There! I can see it!" From afar, Yuuka spotted their village. There were houses next to a field. Kirino headed there with full speed. He didn't want them to wait any longer. But there's something wrong with the village as they get close to it. The people there were lonely. They were working too hard in the fields; dry, lifeless fields. There also seems to be marks of a dried up river near the fields.

"Mama! Papa!" The girls ran to their parents when they have landed. The villagers surrounded them. The others were very amazed at Kirino.

"Oh Yuuka, Yuria. We were looking for you everywhere, why didn't you come home?" Their mother hugged them tightly and sobbed.

"We were out of food and we thought we might find some in the forest so we went there." Yuria began.

"But we got lost on the way back." Yuuka continued.

"But Kirino-san here helped us get back!"

"And defended us from an evil monster."

"I'm glad that you're safe now." Their mother said and looked at Kirino. "Thank you for taking care of my girls."

"You're welcome. I can't just leave them out there." He said and since he's already in the village, he might as well ask about their condition. "What happened here?"

"The river there is our only source of food. We plant in field near it, fish and get water but it suddenly dried up, leaving our field dried up. Our food and water here are scarce and we are very close to starvation." The mother explained. He looked at the people and he saw lonely faces. He can't just leave them like this.

"Embrace the power within you as you can manipulate the wind and weather and defy gravity with the use of wind currents."

The voice of Endou ringed in his ears. He said that he can also manipulate the weather. Maybe if he could let it rain enough, it might fill up the river. It's just an idea though. "Has it ever rain here?" He asked the woman replied by shaking her head.

"Never. That may have caused the river to suddenly dry up."

"Then what if I can make it rain, will it be enough to fill it again?"

"I think so. Maybe by making it rain once, it might rain then another time or even frequently." Kirino nodded and went to the dried river, everyone else followed him. He closed his eyes to summon some rain clouds. Wind surrounds him as the sky turned dark. The clouds formed directly above the village and rained. The villagers quickly went home to get some buckets and collect water. The men even opened up their water tank for it to be filled.

After a few hours of rain, the clouds disappeared. The river was filled enough to go through the irrigation paths to the fields and slowly, the fields were once again moist. "Thank you Kirino-san! You saved the village!" Yuuka exclaimed. The people cheered and celebrated.

"I have finally finished the test but i'll really miss Yuria and Yuuka when i get back. Maybe I'll be teleported back after Shindou and Ayaka finished theirs." He thought out loud. "I wonder what they're going through now?" He looked up to the sky and wondered. Then Yuuka and Yuria pulled his hands.

"Kirino-san! Let's dance! Everyone's celebrating!" They said in unison and Kirino happily joined them.
