"I'll tell you what's more fucked up about that, Lisa," Hiba had decided to unsheathed her blade, but Lola's force had shoved Hiba out of harm's way.
The Mizuka General's mind had shattered eternally and why she began to lose her senses. The thoughts of a human had begun to slowly drift away. All the Mizuka leader could do was stop her son from attacking. Even if it is possible, it still wouldn't evade the fact that it's a son's job to take care of the mother for whenever she needed him the most.
"Hitachi, wait," Lola ordered, but wasn't heard by Hitachi as he walked calmly with his head lowered down and all his teeth grinded together. It was inevitable that Hitachi wasn't going to hesitate to strike. "Hitachi, please wait. I'm ordering you to stop."
"Are you kidding me?" Hitachi questioned the red-head. He then turned her attention at the woman with a contempt look. "Calm down, Mom? You realize how stupid you sound right now?"
Neither Lola or anyone else, except for the Bloodlust Revelation, could believe what Hitachi's choice of words were. He knew better than to say most of that stuff toward his mother. But regardless of how much he's trying to fight even harder for his mother's sake, there was a chance that he couldn't stomach the reality of his mother's tragic night.
"I can't believe that you're letting this madwoman get away with trying to say half of this stuff and you expect me to 'calm down?' Are you really that pathetic of a leader to even try and brush it off?" Hitachi's took his anger to the next level. Lola's reaction was on point to how the only child she birthed could become so distracted by blinded rage and hearing the truth. "The Lola Mizuka I know wouldn't just stand there, and take all those insults from her tormentors."
Alex and Sonya had known Hitachi for the longest time and they said he's always had a calm spirit. But as the years went by between himself and Lola, he's had a huge pillar of demons bottled up just waiting patiently be freed from the other side of his personality.
"She'd believe in trusting her son by not telling him lies and by acknowledging his existence. But here you are," Hitachi's body began to change into something nastier than his character. "...making me feel as if I don't deserve the truth because of how I would react to it. You should've been teaching me something that a parent should never do to their child. Lies being shoved into my throat because of your own selfishness!"
"Hitachi," came another voice from the right end of the first level of Leserado.
"Who the hell are you?" Hitachi demanded with sheer force.
Looking over at the image in the shady corner, there appeared to be a woman with red-hair. She looked like Lola, but slightly different due to facial appearance. She wore a kimono outfit in a mixture of coffee brown, coquelicot orange with cool grey robe to have a firm grip around the outfit. Her eyes appeared in dark pastel green.
"Hitachi, the only thing that you need to know is that she was only trying to protect you," Anema O. Mizuka uttered towards her only grandson with the voice in coral pink. "Hitachi, if you still think that this is the best thing to do, you do what any Mizuka would be capable of doing when it comes to his or her anger against other entities."
The advice Anema gave to Hitachi was beyond too obvious for the eighteen year-old to decide. He couldn't spare anytime to give his mother an extra example to why she was protecting him.
"Protect me from what? The truth? You know that the truth was going to occur one way or another. Since when does a man need protection from the likes of a woman who can't even trust herself by being honest with everyone else?"
Still grasping his word, Hitachi tears began to flood down his cheeks. He continued with his eyes growing mix colors of crimson glory and bloody, cornell red, "Why can't I just be your son for the last eighteen years, Lola? Oh, I know! You have responsibilities. So I'm more than certain that only Crystal could be certain of attention."
"Hitachi," Lola's voice grew through innocence. "That is nowhere near true. I love you more than I love this damn job as a leader! Even at this darn age your at, Hitachi, you still wouldn't be able to understand the tragedy and trauma that I had went through just to bring you out into this world."
Lisa stood back and enjoyed the family aggression. She flew back up to where Black the others are and didn't have the sense to provoke the young man any further.
"Now that Lola's at a lack-luster level, she has no choice but to go ahead and be understanding that her son's pissed at her right now," Lisa laughed uncontrollably.
Black couldn't stand the sight of the situation as he allowed the immense relationship crumbling a part even more.
"Hitachi, it goes against my morals as a parent to hurt you like that. It may seem as if I didn't know what I did to hurt you; but now that you've shown me based off of what you're saying, now I do. It may not have been the best thing I've ever done. I know that it wasn't fair to you but I was protecting you because I love you with my soul, blood, sweat, tears, devotion to you. Everything I've given up to raise you, Sonya, Alex, Crystal. Yes, even Hiba. I've always taken good care of you, even when I had my hands tied, and I've even saved you when you were just a helpless child from eleven years ago. I'm truly sorry for everything. I will even get..."
The General deliberately fell down to her knees and grasped her arms around her son's wrists in a firm grip. She hoped that Hitachi understood that it was a symbolism that she'd never let anything happen to him.
"...I will even get on both my knees and say towards your face that you are your my son. You inspired me to try harder to make sure that you have everything under the sun. Even discipline, even courage and even motivation."
Hitachi felt his mind-pounded at the tender words his mother was using in front of everyone. The massive effect of his heart began to show a different side of him that he's rarely gone before; despite all the trauma, and somewhat, abuse his mother put him through.
Looking onward at the scene, Black had felt another aura growing inevitably. Lisa and the rest wasn't aware of the scent of the force. He stood from the chair he sat on and unsheathed his scythe. Growing tired of what he's witnessed for the last ten minutes, he decided to allow Lisa to engage both Mizukas with her full wildly with her scythe flaking around, cackling horribly.

Chapter 45 - Ace In The Hole

(Time before Kuronina is reanimated: Thirty minutes remaining.)

Crystal's been training for over the last forty-minutes physically, trying to develop her newfound powers as Bloodlust Revelation. One of the things that she's instantly noticed with is the difference in when she chose one of the forces of the sword. Not to mention it shifted the fighting styles.
It was just a couple of weeks earlier that she chose the Black sword without hesitation. Black was beyond astounded at what his newest apprentice had done with courage.
She couldn't help but remember the compliment, and admiration she gained from the Reaper himself. Each time she allowed her sword to swing at nothing but the air, Crystal could sense the aura from the blue statue that it was getting stronger. It signaled her to use more to her advantage into fighting Lola, if it's going to be feasible for her.
I was clearly told by Black that I am the only one on this planet the world is trying to gain respect from because of my powers, Crystal's mind piled up with nothing but confusion and lost in that tone. If it's that vital, very important that the Diary Symbols were so important, why wait until I obtained it for the world to come after?
Those thoughts scared her for a split second, but then she had to ease her body from trembling so much. For the new asset of Bloodlust, Crystal still had a lot of education to gain from Black before she could make it official that she's just as dangerous as the others are.
Suddenly, she heard a loud, irresistable crash erupting from the entrance of Blue-Eyes Fortress. Crystal turned her head and saw an image with flames oozing through her body. It was a female, with a look of pure anger and a cold-blooded attempted to go in for the kill.
The power of the Raging Mizuka Transformation was triggered almost an hour earlier due to the ascendence of Lola R. Mizuka.
***
(One Hour Ago - For the first time in almost nearly two decades, Lorashisasha awakened, but in a different hostess.)
Lola rose up from the ground after Hitachi told her that things will go a lot easier as long as she can be honest with him. That is until Black and Lisa, along with the rest of the organization, pushed Lola's buttons after revealing so many other things that she shouldn't have kept a secret from everyone.
"Well that was a touching scene right there, Lola. But all good things have to come to an end, you know," Lisa screamed as she unsheathed the blade from behind her back. Marscilla and the others thought of charging in at the others to eliminate them.
Somewhere inside the blackness of Lola's inner spirits, a red-phoenix had begun activating. It heard all of the twisted and diabolical themes of what the Bloodlust's true intentions are. As of right now, Lola's heart steamed collapsing onto her knees and her chest. Eyes expanded signigicantly with the blood vessels extending through her eyes.
You were a fool to think that you were going to let them get away with letting out all your dark information and you not altering into something so dangerous because of it! The created screamed with the blur of it's voice storming within the woman's image. The radiance of the flaming bird had erupted with it's high influence to grill the Tomb of Leserado and all that stood upon the premises I don't know what you think this is, Mizuka, but you're not going to show any sympathy or remorse for what they've DONE to you that night, Lola!
The phoenix hollered dreadfully to release the last huge gap of anger that Lola kept fastened up in her heart for the last eighteen years. It humored it in a way that could easily cacoon Lola's body with its' inevitable embrace, and harsh motives of eradication.
Insufficient of controlling her body, Lola's lips were moving as her voice was altering simultaneously with her green eyes growing even darker.
I call upon thee,
The beast that shall grill
The field that will kill
With it's burning tsunami.
All I see is nothing but
The marvelous ending
Of Humanity's Revolution.
I diffusion the wings of the
Bursting flames and burn away
My foes with my enraged fires.

Back at the location to where the ships are destroyed, Tornado, Brook were the only two along with some of their warriors still breathing. The canine General opened his eyes after nearly passing out and barely had enough strength to stand up.
He glanced over at Brook, who was seven feet away from him. To Tornado's surprise, the Southern General was still breathing after a nasty death battle she's experienced against a Bloodlust member.
Tornado used his four legs to support his upper, yet, weakened body. He began to have a severe headache as he leaned his skull down on the ground. Brook, who tried standing, saw the canine nearly lifeless. She rose on both her wobbly feet.
He then gawked up at another individual with the serpents coiling out from behind her back.
"Man, grandpa. You sure know how to take an ass-kicking from the younger era," Rouge stated chilidishly as she laugh while bending on both knees to aid the canine.
"Oh, haha, very cute, Mizuka. You're just like your sister: Love to criticize people that are beaten up badly," Tornado accused Rouge's behavior with the fact she wasn't trying to make them feel even madder.
"Well, we'll worry about that later. We have to continue onto Leserado to get Crystal back. This is a rescue operation and there's no doubt that Lola and her unit are in trouble," Rouge seemed worried and more considerate of the sitatuation.
"You're right," Tornado grunted as he saw Brook coming in to join them. She had a look of despair and disappointment that she had been defeated by Marscilla. "You alright, Aruba? You look pale as hell." Tornado stood strong and manage to recuperate his body a lot faster. "Come on, we got some things to take care of."
"Guys," Brook said, but it was blocked off with Rouge adding in more information about the Avarian Beasts.
"Tornado," Rouge then looked over at Brook, whom she somewhat dislike to a certain extent. "Wait your turn, Aruba, I'll let you talk when I'm done. But I did gain some more information from Shiver while she's at Leserado. "The Avarian Beast of the Aruba family is less than an hour away from being reanimated and would be prepared to dominate the world with its' irresistable force."
"I'm more than aware of that," Brook answered, refusing to be intimidated by a warrior whose ranking is lower than hers. "Don't forget that I'm a part of that army. So I have just as much rights to seeing it's capability as Crystal does."
Rouge slammed her palms into her face, nodding her head in disbelief and tried to cloak her emotions.
"Fine. What else can you add to make this conversation more delightful and interesting," Rouge applied with a sudden smile returning to her face. Unforutunately, Brook knew she wasn't as content with Rouge's tone and evaded further dispute.
"Apparently the Avarian Beast are also creatures that can expose the will of rather or not a person with the special abilities of it's power deserves the rights to have something. Crystal and Diary Symbol, if she were to use it in this time against the Bloodlust Revelation, but we're not exactly sure of how she's holding off against the group," Brook stated. She then wiped the dust off of her clothing and the bit of blood on her bottom right lip. "Most of the times, during the Leserado War, Tornado, you released a bit too much of Skyfall's powers and triggered an ability that nearly blew away the competition. I forgot what the attack was though but you went berserk when Diamond died."
Tornado's face fell down for a split second. He then recalled the day when he clearly lost conscious when he released the Gurasa Devil Beast Ritual; one of Skyfall's forbidden forms that could simply kill the host if their stamina isn't at the appropriate level to control it.
"I rather not discuss it, Brook. Let's just get to Leserado so we can stop Black and his plans. That's all that should matter for the moment," Before Tornado could turn his head, he quickly noticed the slight alternation of plans that he had for incase things went haywire.
"There's a few bases around the Tomb that we can sneak our way in. Not to mention that there's a few thing that I may have to do in order to try and catch one of Bloodlust Revelation members off guard. I'll need both of your support along with your warriors, to try and outwit them in every possible way," Tornado insisted with his eyes staring down at enlarged, devestated city of Leserado's entrance. Five miles away from their current destination. "I expect the both of you, as your elder, to be more respectful and understanding that we're all fighting the same enemy together. Save all your irrelevant fights for a later time. This group will do whatever they can to achieve their goals. Even if it means getting their hands dirty."
The girls, both giving each other the sizzling eyes that heated up the tension had finally lowered, thanks to reality's current situation.
"You're right, Tornado. It's a good thing that you're here. Otherwise, I would've just said 'screw it' I have my own aspiration to do things that needs to be done," Brook admitted, as to what an adult should've been doing for the longest time.
This surprised the Poison canine to the extreme. He never knew Brook had that kind of side to where she'd take the advice a lot more personal than others doubted her to do.
"Now, here's the plan."
***
Skating down the hallway on a massive chunk of road ice, Shiver and Ivy had begun their epic battle against some of the members of the Bloodlust Army. Most of them had their guns and begun pulling the trigger. Ivy had thrust her sword deep within the Renukokiji Magicians from one through three.
Once the blade had been penetrated through the heart of the first Magician, the sharp ending of the sword had exchange two more weapons that trailed back through the other vital points
of the Magicians upper body parts. It instantly killed the enemy as Ivy launched the opponent toward it's fellow soldiers of Black's army.
Shiver had been impressed so far with Ivy's prowess and skills as fighter, but decided to avoid it for the time being and put her own abilities to the test. She continued developing more and more road of ice until the point to where the head-administrator of Global Government ran out of energy.
Ivy, who knew that Shiver wasn't going to last that much longer, insisted on aiding Shiver through her last bit of strength. But arrogance got in the way of Shiver's leadership personality and had the audacity to swat the Poison warrior's hand away from her.
Ivy leaned her head back and didn't think enough to let the Aruba warrior do her job effortlessly.
"I think I'm going let you do whatever the hell you want. Because it appears that this explained why General Mizuka can't respect you or your peers of Globe Government for anything," Ivy stammered with her eyes remaining calm.
Ivy was smacked hard to the ground by one of the enemy's right foot after it made contact with her spine. The kick was flawless as the impact was heard throughout the level Ivy and Shiver were escaping from.
After feeling her jaw connected by the impeccable blow, the cause had nearly forced the long, purple-haired woman to lose her balance uncontrollably. She landed flat on her face and didn't realize which direction to look for an incoming attack. The creature that attacked her was a Gurasa Ogre. Throughout the fifteen year time-period, some of the members of Skyfall's family had turned their backs against her in exchange to gaining power from the Bloodlust Revelation.
Most of them had grown impatient and could no along afford maturity and took a gritty route.
Ivy nursed her swallon jaw after sitting on her ass and leaning her skull against the wall. She didn't think that the Gurasa Wolf would come in instantly and try to attack her once more. But in a sign of relief, Ivy had no other options but to ascend into her Gurasa Wolf Spirit to blow away the enemy from striking.
"Shiver, you have to go on ahead and I'll be sure that I make it out in time," Ivy uttered. She wasn't in the tone of giving out orders.
