Kyo smirks and charges at the humanoid faster, and at the right moment, Kyo swiftly fires a sharp kick to the humanoid’s face, sending the humanoid flying back, however Kyo didn’t stop there, now shooting a round of multiple blue energy shots at the humanoid, causing significant damage to the humanoid’s body, before the humanoid crashes hard into the wall of an actual mountain. Kyo quickly flies over towards the humanoid full speed, but as Kyo gets closer, the humanoid flies out of the hole In the mountain and charges back.
“It’s time I end this now…!” says a severe Kyo.
Kyo prepares himself, and as the two got closer, the humanoid cocks back his right fist with a small green fiery aura forming around it, but Kyo was already set, swinging his gun blade at the humanoid, emitting a large blue energy sword. Kyo quickly swings and successfully slices the humanoid’s body entirely in half by the waist. The humanoid looked on in shock in those final seconds, seeing Kyo’s face and the long energy sword he used to slice him apart. Seconds after, Kyo flies up to the sky and fires off yet another blue energy wave, with the energy wave quickly engulfing the humanoid’s body, and ultimately disintegrating him to nothing. The energy blast crashes hard to the ground soon after, but Kyo let’s go of the trigger, and quickly lowers his weapon, finding no sight of the humanoid anywhere, and another large crater in the ground from his attack.
“…Finally…I beat that piece of shit…” says Kyo before letting out a sigh of relief and looking up at the stormy sky.
Next, was Arata against Kazuma. With Arata’s new power-up, named Raiden Xeroz, Kazuma looked on in shock at the sheer power Arata was unleashing. Arata attaches the Raiden Blade to his back and faces Kazuma with more confidence, ready.
“Alright Kazuma, I’m giving you a chance to surrender yourself,” Says Arata, “This new power I hold will surely deal great damage to you…”
“Fuck you!” shouts Kazuma, bolting towards Arata.
Kazuma throws a swift left towards Arata’s face, but Arata catches his punch while standing still. Kazuma is shocked once more, but soon grows angry, continuing to throw a flurry of punches at Arata, but Arata easily sways his body to avoid most of his attacks before swiftly punching Kazuma to the stomach hard, pushing Kazuma back, but Kazuma uses his feet as the brakes to stop his body from going any farther. Kazuma looks enraged now to see Arata so calm before him.
“…Damn it…! This isn’t happening!” shouts Kazuma, “I was so close…! So close!”
“Kazuma…stop so that I won’t have to kill you,” pleads a grave, Arata.
“Michelle…you don’t have to do this,” says Harumi, slowly walking towards Michelle.
“…I…I’m not going to submit to you, you bitch!!” shouts Michelle.
Michelle charges at Harumi fast and whips out her scythe. As she got close, she swings her weapon swiftly at Harumi, but Harumi begins avoiding Michelle’s scythe attacks before Harumi quickly knees Michelle to the stomach hard, and then kicks her in the face, sending her crashing to the ground. Harumi stands there quietly as she watches Michelle struggle to get back up now supported by her scythe standing tall on the ground. As soon as Michelle appeared stable enough, she fires off a massive yellow energy ball at Harumi fast, but Harumi catches Michelle’s energy ball and throwing Michelle’s attack right back at her with the speed of a bullet, and Michelle gets engulfed by an explosion from the impact of her own attack. As the black smoke forms around Michelle, Harumi can see the bright red eyes of Michelle through the thick black smoke covering her, and the bright green form of her scythe. Harumi then squints her eyes, as moments later, Michelle flies out of the black smoke and tries to send a kick towards Harumi’s head, but Harumi throws up her left forearm, blocking her attack successfully. Next, Harumi grabs that same leg Michelle tried to attack her with and swings her around like a torpedo, before letting go of her leg and sending her flying and crashing into a large boulder, with the boulder collapsing on her seconds after impact. Harumi turns around and faces where she sent Michelle, still calm.
“…If you don’t stop here, I will be forced to perform lethal action towards you!” says Harumi.
Seconds after, all the boulder crushing Michelle are sent flying all over the place by Michelle’s aura blasting out. Michelle’s armor is now damaged, and Michelle appeared bloody in the face, yet very angry. She charges towards Michelle fast and once again goes to swing her scythe at Harumi, however, Harumi saw Michelle’s incoming attack in slow motion.
…Kensei…activate…! thought Harumi. On the forearm armor of the Enforcer Aqua, two long steel blades shoot out. Harumi raises up her right arm and cleanly slices off Michelle’s right arm holding on to the scythe with her Kensai Blade. Michelle doesn’t even notice until she charges past Harumi and stops behind Harumi with a smirk on her face, thinking she’s hit Harumi…until she looks to her right and finds blood splattering all over the floor in front of her. Michelle then turns around quickly and finds Harumi facing her back towards her standing still. Michelle’s eyes widen seeing her right arm holding onto the scythe lying on the ground next to Harumi, which led Michelle letting out a grueling scream…
Michelle’s cry was so loud Kazuma heard it. Kazuma is shocked at what he’s heard and looks out in the distance to his left. He is frozen at the echoes of this scream and soon grows angry at it.
“…Damn it…! That’s Michelle!!” shouts Kazuma. Kazuma aborts, quickly flying and heading towards his sister, however, lightning flashes, and Kazuma quickly stops and backs up, finding Arata in front of him.
“Get the fuck out of the way!” shouts Kazuma.
“You’re not getting away from me at all. This is the crime you two will pay for killing innocent lives and causing chaos across the land of Galaxus,” replies Arata, “These, are your ramifications.”
“Screw you, you’ll never understand!!” shouts Kazuma.
“Kazuma, do you think your mother likes what you’re doing right now!!” Arata shouts back. Kazuma had no words to say to him, but the look of shock.
“Huh?! Would your mother ever approve of you two doing such a thing?!” shouts Harumi towards Michelle, who’s away from her with blood leaking down the right side of her armor, looking on in fear and shock. Michelle has no response for Harumi…but to soon tear up.
“…Mother…mother…” whispers the tearful Michelle, “…I miss her so much…”
Harumi looked on with a quiet, yet serious look on her face watching her enemy break down…
“Of course, I miss my mother, dammit!” shouts Kazuma, “My sister and I had nothing else after she was killed! Nothing helped to get past it but this! All we had was that sheer anger from what we’ve seen with our own eyes! Our mother killed in cold blood in the storm as her blood drained into the sewer! It’s only right we avenge her death by taking out this pitiful land!”
“So that’s your only purpose?!” says an angry Arata.
“Yes! And dammit, if I must die by this, then so be it!!” shouts Michelle, “I’ll be by mother’s side in the end, anyway!”
“Don’t talk like that Michelle!” shouts Harumi, “I do not want to end up killing you. I want to help you here. Do not resort to this! You can stop this now!”-
“Fuck off!!” shouts Michelle, throwing her left hand up and firing off a barrage of yellow energy blasts out of her hand. Harumi looks on in shock, looking up and finding many energy balls spreading out all over the place, soon crashing hard into locations near them, and afar. The explosions seemed severe when crashing wherever they landed.
“Harumi! This is Kimiko! That damn girl just struck a city by doing that!” shouts Kimiko through Harumi’s speaker.
“Fuck…! Are you for real?!” says a shocked Harumi.
“…Well, luckily it’s not too bad…no one was harmed…but dammit, she’s not cooperating. You have, to stop her, now,” replies a severe Kimiko.
“…Affirmative,” says Harumi, looking at Michelle now with the look of intent to end all this right
here, right now.
Harumi bolts towards Michelle and easily slices off Michelle’s left arm, stopping her enraged assault instantly, now leaving Michelle armless, with her blood spewing everywhere once more. Michelle doesn’t notice this by how fast Harumi’s strike was, now standing behind her. Michelle looks to her left and finds blood all over the place, and again, she lets out a blood curling scream after finding her left arm lying in a pool of her own blood…
As Arata and Kazuma go toe to toe, throwing rapid punches and kicks at each other, Michelle’s scream echoes through the storm once more. Kazuma hears her, and stops his attack on Arata, quickly flying back away from him and looking out into the distance once more.
“Dammit, dammit, dammit! I’ve had enough of this!” shouts an enraged Kazuma.
Arata charges at Kazuma fast, but Kazuma was faster, charging a large purple energy ball and firing it at Arata. The energy ball pushes Arata all the way to the ground, causing an explosion upon impact. Kazuma’s chance was now set, and he flies off in search of his sister…
Why the fuck is she screaming like this?! thought a worried Kazuma, blasting through the sky, frantically looking at the ground in search for Michelle. There’s no way she’s having a disadvantage against that bitch right now! You’re stronger than that Michelle! You’re the strongest female I’ve ever seen next to mother! We’re finally at the grasp to take revenge for mother! It’s our chance…!
Kazuma focuses on a small blue light in the distance…
Michelle, that better be you…! thought Kazuma.
Kazuma stops in the air and looks down, and his eyes soon widen, shocked at what he’s seen before him: Michelle, his own sister, knees fallen to the ground, armless. Harumi was in front of Michelle, charging a blue energy ball in her hand in front of Michelle’s head, which was lowered. Kazuma had no words for what he saw right now. His own sister, fallen before their very enemy.
“You…you…!” says a shocked Kazuma. Kazuma stood frozen as the rain pounded hard onto his armor. Kazuma clenched both of his hands and now looked on in pure anger, “I’m…I’m going to kill you!!”-
“Stop!” shouts Michelle, which pierced Kazuma’s heart, shocked at what he’s just heard.
“W-What?!” says a surprised Kazuma, “What do you mean…? WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN STOP?!!”-
“Mother…” whispers Michelle, “…I’ve given up, Kazuma. I can’t handle this anymore…”
“…Given up…?” says a confused Kazuma.
“…I miss mother…I…want to go back to her…to mother…I miss her…” says a tearful Michelle. Kazuma, despite how enraged he was, was still in shock to hear what Michelle was saying.
“…Michelle…! You’re speaking nonsense!” shouts Kazuma, “We have a chance to actually take down mother’s murderers!”-
“And then what?!” shouts Michelle, stopping Kazuma’s rant, “…And then what, brother? She’s gone dammit! Even if we wipe out the entire human race, it won’t matter…because mom won’t come back no matter what we do…”
“…Michelle…!” says a shocked Kazuma, tearing up.
“…She’s gone Kazuma. We have to face it. We won’t see her smile anymore…hear her voice…smell her cooking…we’ll never see her…again…” says Michelle.
“…I don’t get it…! Why are you saying all this Michelle?!” asks Kazuma.
“I just don’t care about life anymore…” replies Michelle, to which Kazuma eyes widened from her reply, as tears rolled down his face.
“…Please, say your prayers before I finish you off for your sins…” says Harumi.
“Tch! You’re not fucking killing my sister you whore!!” shouts Kazuma, firing up a massive aura around his body, ready to strike at Harumi.
Seconds before Kazuma could move a muscle, a lightning bolt crashes behind him, and Kazuma gets stricken by Arata himself, kicking Kazuma to the side of the head, causing Kazuma to be sent crashing to the ground, creating a hole upon impact. As the smoke clears where Kazuma was sent, Kazuma looked out of it. His eyes were blurred but could see his kneeling sister before Harumi, and Arata’s golden aura in the sky. Michelle moved her mouth in silence, performing prayer, and Kazuma saw it. Kazuma’s armor looked damaged beyond repair. He seemed too weak to do anything, lying there as tears continued rolling down. Soon, the storm lightened up…
As the rain lightened, and the crash of thunder diminished, Michelle’s moving of her lips stopped. Tears rolled down her cheeks before she let up a smile. The rain stopped, and the dark clouds opened up the full moon, shining down at the destroyed vast land…
“…Thank you…for this…” whispers a weak Michelle, “…I can finally be at peace,”
“…That’s good to hear…” replies Harumi, revealing a light smile.
“…I want to protect my brother…me and mother…we’ll watch over him…so that he can turn to the good light…and not the dark light. Please, don’t do anything to cause him to die. I don’t want to see him in the next world…” says Michelle.
“…I’ll do my best,” replies Harumi.
…Harumi fires off a massive blue energy wave, quickly disintegrating Michelle’s body in the process and creating a large crater into the ground. Harumi soon stopped, and slowly lowered her hand, finding only a crater in front of her. No sign of Michelle anywhere. Michelle was gone. Kazuma saw this from afar and was shocked at what he’s seen, to see his own sister, gone, just like that. Kazuma tries to move his right arm, to contact his sister who was no longer there…however, it was too late. Kazuma lowered his eyes, falling unconscious, with his arm falling to the ground…
Kyo, from afar the area, saw this, watching in complete silence…
Harumi deforms, and her body looked as if it’s been through hell and back. Arata lands back to the ground and approaches Harumi from behind, also deforming as he got closer to her, and he as well didn’t look too well. Arata put his hand on Harumi’s back, and Harumi looked towards him with tired eyes. Arata only nods in response, as Harumi rested her head on Arata’s chest.
Later, the two approached and looked down at Kazuma’s body, laying there, resting.
“…What should we do with him?” asks Arata, “We can easily just take him in and arrest him,”
“…No…” replies Harumi.
“No…?” says a confused Arata.
“…Let him be. It’s very risky…but let’s just see what he does from after he wakes up…” replies Harumi.
“…He’s going to clearly attack the city again after he realizes what happened…” says Arata.
“It’s a good possibility…but I must protect his sister’s wishes to keep him alive and find the better path,” replies Harumi.
“…Fine. We’ll let him stay here then…” says Arata.
“…I wonder if we have enough juice in the morpher to teleport out of here…” says Harumi.
“I do. Let’s go,” says Arata, holding Harumi’s hand.
Arata presses a button on the side of his morpher, and both of their bodies are wrapped in gold light, before quickly vanishing into particles of gold lights, leaving Kazuma by himself…
No later does Arata and Harumi disappear, Kyo arrives and sees Kazuma’s body from below. Kyo quickly lands in front of Kazuma to look closely, and as he did, he was surprised to know the identity of one of the Ferox’s.
“…No way…! It’s the same guy who I fought in the arcade…!” says a shocked Kyo, “I can’t believe…this is him…”
Kyo then stood there, quiet. He looked at Kazuma, looking as if he had to do something with him…
Later, Kyo takes Kazuma to another location in the vast field and lays Kazuma’s body against the side of a boulder. Kyo gave another look towards Kazuma for a moment before he turned his back on him, and flew off into the night sky.
Kyo gazes at the horizon, with the dark clouds finally moving away from the area. Kyo however, appeared to have something else going on in his mind. He felt as if he had to
do something essential next…
Chapter End
Chapter 28
Sorrow
“Mother…”
We arrive at a beautiful day where the sun is out, and the birds were chirping. Amongst this quiet, beautiful neighborhood is a gated house right next to a beautiful lake where an elderly couple was feeding a crowd of ducks with a bag of chopped up bread.
Inside the beautiful home, we had two children sitting in front of the T.V. in the living room watching cartoons, while there was a woman in the kitchen nearby, preparing food, as the timer has just gone off.
“Dinner’s ready!” says a joyful, yet beautiful woman. She had short white hair and brown eyes, wearing a long white sweater, long black pants, and black sandals, with an apron on. She walked out of the kitchen with a long pan full of an array of food. She set it on the dinner table as the two kids both looked over to see their mother set the large set of food down.
“C’mon Kazuma and Michelle! Let’s eat now!” says the mother, smiling at her children.
“The first one to the table’s a loser!” says Kazuma, racing to the dinner table.
“Hey! Not fair!” shouts an angry Michelle, quickly getting up and chasing Kazuma…
“…Mother…please…”
It is night time, and a young Kazuma and Michelle are together in their beds with their mother in the bed, cuddled up with her children. The three were watching cartoons. Occasionally as they watched the young Kazuma and Michelle let out laughter while watching. Their mother quietly looked down at them both, and revealed a gleaming smile towards them, clearly showing she had much affection for the two of her children…
“Mother…please…do not…”
Another sunny day in the city, and another good day for the family. A young Kazuma and Michelle are with their mother in the park. Their mother sat on the bench watching the two play fight together. The young one’s mother smiled at them having quite a fun time.
