Chapter 19: Falling Back
** Defending his own pride. **
She's wandering off in a dark space. A space that light cannot be seen. Floating in the air, without any consciousness about why she is here.
''Where am I?'' Says Ruri to herself, with her eyes gazing off into this unknown place, and she keeps on repeating the same word,
''Where am I?''
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the real world, she is lying on the ground with her eyes wide open. But her eyes are different, its like staring into the sky, without any senses. She can't move at all, she just lie there like a dead body. Covered by Cain's regenerating kidou shield, she is safe inside, for now.
A huge explosion occured just now when Cain and Strouff rushed into each other. As the smokes slowly to vanish away, both of them stand still, but with wounds all over their body, and ripped clothings.
''You're tough, I'm kinda surprised,'' Says Strouff, facing his back to Cain.
''Don't talk crap to me!'' Yells Cain as he turn around trying to dash towards Strouff but suddenly, his back breaks.
''What?!'' Says Cain to himself as he falls to the ground all of a sudden.
''Tch, nothing but an imbecile trying to overtake me,'' Says Strouff sarcastically while staring at the suffering Cain.
''What've you did to me?'' Cain says in agony.
''Nothing, just broke your back when you dash into me, didn't you felt it? You, failed, as a former Shinigami Chieftain,'' Says Strouff while walks away from Cain.
Cain suddenly recalls about the battle just now. When both of them dashed into each other, he remembered hitting Strouff first but instead, Strouff blocks it with a very special kidou, but he can't remember what was it. Then his back was break by Strouff with his palm.
''Aren't you going to kill me?'' Says Cain.
''I'm, but first...''
''Nooo!'' Yells Cain when he sees Strouff walking towards Ruri.
Strouff grins. He now stands beside the regenerating shield, where Ruri lies in it unconsciously. Strouff immediately lifts his hand up, ready to crush a fatal blow down the shield. But then, he stops. His face shows a mix of strangeness and shockness.
He then walks away from Ruri, and he says,
''Well, sorry pal, gotta get going, idiotic headquarter summons us to go back now,'' Says Strouff with a relaxed face.
''What?'' Says Cain in disbelief.
"You guys are really lucky today, I was just going to kill the both of you, but...'' Strouff then djinns away without completing his sentence.
Cain then turn his sight on Ruri, whom is still lying safely inside the shield. He suddenly felt dizziness weaving around in his head, and slowly he closes up his eyes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
''Where are you going?!'' Yells Darucard, his body is wounded badly.
''Our master summons us to go back now, looks like we can't finish this fight, let's go, Beruda,'' Says Jyuro as he djinns away, follow by Beruda, who didn't say anything at all.
Darucard then stares at his own reiattou, thinking a disaster had just happened. His mind is polluted now, by all the messes that had just happened around him. He didn't think that all of this would turned out like this, it all happened too fast.
He then walks back to where Cain and Ruri collapses.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's back at the farm house, approximately two days after the battle of the farm house. Few of them from allies can be seen sitting outside the door, breathing for fresh air and recovering from their wounds.
''What will happen to her?'' Asks Tetsuo with a calm voice.
''I don't know,'' Answers Colt.
Cain sits on a wooden chair with his back wrapped up in bandage, his injury still needs more time to be fully recover. He stays silent all the while.
''Well, finally we had a chance to sit down and have a nice and warm talk,'' Says Lylford with a smiling face.
"I don't think its nice and warm,'' Answers Colt with a very sarcastic tone.
"Whaddaya mean?!'' Says Lylford showing a 'feeling bad' face.
''What I mean is, the battle is not over yet, and you still have the mood to talk about happy things now?'' Answers Colt, and then Lylford charges towards Colt and the both of them are rolling and hugging together in a catfight.
''Stop it will ya?'' Says Darucard. He had been lying on the grass for all these times. Then Lylford and Colt stops, but the two of them are hugging together, and then Lylford releases her hand and jumps away from Colt.
''You're disgusting, shorty!'' Yells Lylford.
''You too, dumbass'' Yells Colt as he walks away from Lylford and sits down beside Cain.
Tetsuo then walks to where Darucard lies.
''I wonder when she will wake up,'' Whispers Tetsuo to Darucard.
''Soon, she just need to be strong,'' Says Darucard while staring at the blue sky.
Cain is too sitting on his chair thinking about the other stuffs although Colt and Lylford are still fighting and sturggling beside him because of the arguement just now.
His minds are fill with the battle scenes from two days ago. He suddenly thinks of Strouff, Strouff Gengall. He then closes up his eyes.
Back in the bedroom, Ruri is still lying unconsciously. Her eyes shut tight, but sweats are all over her foreheads. She is having a nightmare, inside herself.
''Where am I?'' Says Ruri to herself, she's still wandering inside the black space.
Then, she sees a source of light not far away from her, she starts to walk towards the light. As she walks nearer and nearer to the light, she feel something very familiar. It's a reiatsu, and it's a familiar one. She quickens her pace and closes in to the source of light.
When she approaches the light, the light suddenly fades away. She blocks her eyes with her hand as the ray of light is too strong, and then, a woman stands in front of her. The same yellow colour as her hair, long and wavy. Big blue eyes, a very beautiful woman.
She then speaks, a very familiar voice.
''Ruri Michalka,''

She's wandering off in a dark space. A space that light cannot be seen. Floating in the air, without any consciousness about why she is here.

Chapter 18: Rage
** Lay low or die trying. **
Cain reacts just on time. He knocks Strouff back with his right ankle with great force and jumps away from him. His face goes back to that serious look which he always wear.
''You're just too naive, Cain. Remember the last time when you're still in the clan? You're really weird, I always wondered how come people can change so fast, perhaps...'' When Strouff is halfway through, Cain interrupts,
''Perhaps you're the cold-blooded one,''
Strouff grins. He grips on to his reiattou even harder. He knows he he won't hold back to Cain anymore. The real fight only begins now.
''Well, how about the chosen one over there?'' Strouff grins as he turns his head away to the spot where Ruri stands now.
Cain is in shock for a moment, he then continues,
"What are you going to do to her?!''
''Cain Rouxfore! You let your guard down at this very point, you're truly denied by your own power, you're nothing but dusts to me, I don't need to kill you to achieve my victory, all I need, is a little gravity push, to someone who is important,'' Strouff says with an evil tone.
On the other side of the field, Ruri is running towards the area where Colt and Gonzhuca are having a fight. But right at that moment, a figure is somewhere near her, but she can't sense it. Then, the unexpected happens.
A dark blade pierces right through her heart. It's a Valrog. Wearing a black coat and hood covering his whole face. That Valrog then vanishes into thin air. All that left is the unconscious body of Ruri, lying on the ground.
''Ruri!!!'' Yells Cain as he djinns towards her in an instant.
Just when Strouff is about to stop Cain, Lute shows up in front of him.
''What've you done? You bastard,'' Says Lute, staring straight across Strouff's eyes.
''Calm down, woman. What I did, it's just a little reward for her fighting so hard,'' Replies Strouff sarcastically.
Lute then turns her head away, and says,
''She's mine, if you ever tries to lay your hand on her again, I won't be easy on you,''
Lute then djinns away. She seems to be retreating from this battle. Perhaps going back to the fortress.
''What a bitch,'' Says Strouff to himself.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cain is holding Ruri's body and yelling in anger. He then quickly summon the Regenerate Shield on her to recover her from that severe wound. But that pierce is so deep, and it contains the venom of Valrog.
Venom of Valrog, what is that thing? Not everyone knows about this, and what is a Valrog actually? Only Cain knew.
Cain then lay Ruri on the ground and let his healing kidou do the work. He grips on to his reiattou even harder this time. Then Strouff appears right in front of him, with a grin on his face.
''I swear to god I will kill you with my own hands,'' Says Cain while pointing his reiattou towards Strouff.
''Very good,'' Replies Strouff, he then continues,
''It's good to see you in rage, RAGE! MY FRIEND!''
They both then rushes into each other with their own reiattou. Right at that moment, a big blast of explosion occurs at that very spot.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Colt is tired, the same goes to all his blood wolves. His opponent is too tough to beat, he can't figure out the right away to defeat him. All his blood wolves then return to his body and back to reiattou form.
''Little guy, giving up already?'' Says Gonzhuca with a grin on his face, his giant body's shadow overcover Colt in great size.
But then, a figure appears out of no where. Cutting his right arm instantly. Blood starts flowing down.
''WHO THE HECK DID THAT! IT HURTS!'' Yells Gonzhuca angrily.
It's Darucard. He then djinns to the side of Colt.
''How's Tetsuo and Lylford?'' Colt asks.
''They're fine, Cain is healing them with the shield,''
''But Ruri, her reiatsum,''
"I know, something terrible had happened to her, but, let's finish this bastard first,''
They both look at each other and nodded their heads. Darucard dashes to the left and Colt to the right. They both jump up together thus swinging their reiattous towards Gonzhuca.
Gonzhuca immediately swings both his arm back and forth trying to get rid of both of them, but Darucard and Colt djinns and dodges all the attacks easily and soon enough, they both reach Gonzhuca's head.
Two reiattous, two powers. Stabbing into each of the eye of Gonzhuca, instantly making him blind.
''Arghhh!!!! It hurts!!!'' Yells Gonzhuca while covering his eyes up with both his hands.
''I guess being too big doesn't give you too much advantange too,'' Says Colt.
Then, the both of them immediately jumps to his stomach and swing their reiattous against it. Those vicious blows cause Gonzhuca to collapse onto the ground instantly. Slowly, he stops breathing.
''Quick, to Ruri!'' Yells Darucard to Colt.
But then, two figures appear in front of them.
It's Jyuro and Beruda.
''Geez, gimme a break,'' Says Colt.
''Don't let your guard down, Colt!'' Says Darucard while grips onto his reiattou even harder.
''White hair guy, glad to see you again,'' Says Jyuro to Darucard, with a grin on his face.
Right at that moment, Beruda already dashes towards Colt in a lightning speed. Making Colt didn't even have enough time to prepare for the attack. The reiattou of Beruda, almost right in front of the eyes of Colt, is then block by Darucard with his reiattou.
Darucard then stands in front of Colt, asking him to retreat.
"Go take a rest,''
"No!''
"Just go, I can handle things over here,''
''No way I'm leaving you, Darucard,''
"You're injured, now just go will ya!?''
Colt stops for a second. With no choices left to make,
''Becareful,'' Whispers Colt, he then djinns away.
''Now who shall I kill first?'' Says Darucard, with a confident voice.
** Stay tuned for the next chapter. **
Cain reacts just on time. He knocks Strouff back with his right ankle with great force and jumps away from him. His face goes back to that serious look which he always wear.

Chapter 17: The Solitary Beat
For readers: Please take note that I changed Mugen's name in Chapter 16 to go with the story, sorry about that. Please enjoy Chapter 17.
**A sword into the shadow, what could that be?**
The reiattou twitches inside the Shinigami's body, blood keeps on pouring out from the enormous wound.
''What... just... happened?'' Asks the Shinigami to Darucard, slowly.
Darucard then takes his reiattou out from the ground, and keeps his reiattou back into his body, he calmly looks at the Shinigami's desperated eyes.
''My name is Darucard Spiegel, nice fight with you, Shinigami,'' Says Darucard calmly.
The Shingami finally show a smile on his tired face, he knew that he won't last long.
''It's good to know your name before I die, I'm Aero Drafneel. The Vice-Chieftain of 8th Division, it's a really pleasure fighting you,'' Slowly, he closes up his eyes and collapses to the ground.
''Drafneel... Drafneel... That name,'' Darucard says to himself inside his mind.
Darucard then turns his back and walks away. Flashbacks start to flips through his brain, taking control over his body.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inside a forest, teenage Darucard is seen holding a wooden sword and swinging around. He attacked the trees around him and yelled everytime he is rushing towards the tree. Suddenly, bushes behind him started to moving and swooshing. Something is walking towards him from the bushes. He turned his back around and aimed his sword at the direction. Then comes a little girl, almost the same of his age.
This girl is cute-looking, with big round eyes and a long green hair that reminds you of a wavy water. She smiled when she saw Darucard. Darucard, standing there with a numbed and shy face. Put down his sword and walked towards her.
''Who are you? Why are you here?'' Asked Darucard to the girl.
''I lived nearby here, I heard someone's yelling so I came and checked it out, what were you doing?''
''Uh... Uhhh... Just toying around with my sword, hehehe,'' Blushes Darucard as he showed her the simple-looking wooden sword.
''You called that a sword? Hahaha!'' The girl started laughing.
Darucard started rubbing his hair in a shy and blushy style. He never had this kind of feeling before. He stared at the girl with emotionless eyes as she started picking up the sword and running around.
They two started chatting by sitting down under a shady tree.
''What's your name?'' Asked the girl.
''Me? Darucard Spiegel, nice to meet ya!'' Darucard replied with a cheerful voice.
''How about yours?'' Darucard continued.
''Not telling you!'' Replied the girl with a naughty voice.
''Come on, tell me,''
''Perhaps next time, hehe,'' Then a butterfly suddenly flied across them. She immediately stood up and started chasing it.
Darucard just stared at her back running around with happy laughters. But then, a voice started calling out from outside the bush.
''Hey Lucy! Come home for dinner now will ya?'' Shouted an unknown male voice.
The girl immediately stopped and turned around showing a sad face. Darucard looked up at her and said,
''Whose that?''
''My brother,'' Replied the girl, probably named Lucy.
''Well, I guess you better get going,'' Said Darucard with a smile.
''I had fun! Hope to see you again! White hair boy!'' Said Lucy while walking away from Darucard.
''Hey, whats your name again?''
''Lucy, Lucy Drafneel!''
After that incident, Darucard never sees her again. Whenever he came back to the same old spot, and how hard he tried to yell during his practice, no one shows up again.
''Lucy... Where are you?''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
''That idiot Aero,'' Says Tanos, standing not far away from the battle that just ended.
Beruda stands beside him, he turns his head around and starts to check out the surroundings.
''What are you doing?'' Asks Tanos.
''Nothing,''
"That Aero, he's always soft-hearted during battle, such an idiot'' Says Tanos sarcastically.
''I think you better shut your filthy mouth up before someone cuts it down,'' Says a voice comes from behind Tanos.
It's Jyuro, already holding his reiattou. Looking eager to fight with one of allies.
''Where's Lute?'' Asks Beruda.
''To the girl,'' Answers Jyuro, with a smile on his face.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cain can't stand still, both his legs are hurt. Strouff stands across him, with a grin on his face.
''Sorry to say, after so many years, I'm better than you,'' Says Strouff with a sarcastic voice.
Cain suddenly appears behind of Strouff, he swings his reaittou against Strouff but misses, Strouff dodges away.
''You're still fast with both your legs being cut? Haha, but not fast enough!''
Strouff immediately dashes towards Cain while holding his reiattou behind his back. As soon as he reaches Cain, he lifts his right foot up and kicks against Cain's stomach but Cain blocks away with his fist but then Strouff's reiattou swing towards Cain all of a sudden, out of control, Cain dodges it but falls to the ground. Strouff is now holding the reiattou against Cain's throat, just an inch away from slitting it.
''How pity of you, lying on the ground, looking at me with those begging-for-forgiveness eyes, you're nothing but a weakling,'' Says Strouff with a serious voice.
Cain still remains calm while being put in this dangerous situation.
''Don't give me that calm and serious look, I'm tired of looking at it, any last words?'' Asks Strouff while pressing his reiattou against Cain's throat harder.
''Screw you,'' Says Cain calmly.
Strouff then fully presses his reiattou into Cain's throat in an enormous force. But then, Cain disappears into thin air.
''What?!'' Yells Strouff with a shocking look.
Cain then appears behind him. In top-shape without any injuries on him.
''I see, stupid kidou move,'' Says Strouff without looking at Cain whom is standing behind him.
''Now, I will be standing on the tallest sky, no one can ever stops me, no one!'' Yells Strouff as he suddenly channels all the reiatsu through his body. It's an amazing sight, even Cain's eyes got big and the serious look starts to develop while looking at it.
''Cain, look at me, just simply look. This body, this power, is an art, God gave me this art, and now, this art is going to wipe you away from history,'' Yells Strouff as his body is now glowing with all the blue reiatsu flame surrounding him.
''Kidou of Destruction, Violet Flames,'' Says Cain while firing a purple reiatsu energy blast towards Strouff.
But the attack did nothing at all, Strouff simply blocks it away with his hand.
''It's no use, you're too naive!'' Yells Strouff and follow by an evil laughter.
''Kidou in reiatsu is no use against him now, Cain, think, you must think,'' Says Cain to himself.
Right at that moment, Strouff djinns behind him. Cain is in shock for a moment.
''Farewell,'' Whispers Strouff into Cain's ear.
** Stay tuned for next chapter. **
**A sword into the shadow, what could that be?**
The reiattou twitches inside the Shinigami's body, blood keeps on pouring out from the enormous wound.
''What... just... happened?'' Asks the Shinigami to Darucard, slowly.
Darucard then takes his reiattou out from the ground, and keeps his reiattou back into his body, he calmly looks at the Shinigami's desperated eyes.
''My name is Darucard Spiegel, nice fight with you, Shinigami,'' Says Darucard calmly.
The Shingami finally show a smile on his tired face, he knew that he won't last long.
''It's good to know your name before I die, I'm Aero Drafneel. The Vice-Chieftain of 8th Division, it's a really pleasure fighting you,'' Slowly, he closes up his eyes and collapses to the ground.
''Drafneel... Drafneel... That name,'' Darucard says to himself inside his mind.
Darucard then turns his back and walks away. Flashbacks start to flips through his brain, taking control over his body.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inside a forest, teenage Darucard is seen holding a wooden sword and swinging around. He attacked the trees around him and yelled everytime he is rushing towards the tree. Suddenly, bushes behind him started to moving and swooshing. Something is walking towards him from the bushes. He turned his back around and aimed his sword at the direction. Then comes a little girl, almost the same of his age.
This girl is cute-looking, with big round eyes and a long green hair that reminds you of a wavy water. She smiled when she saw Darucard. Darucard, standing there with a numbed and shy face. Put down his sword and walked towards her.
''Who are you? Why are you here?'' Asked Darucard to the girl.
''I lived nearby here, I heard someone's yelling so I came and checked it out, what were you doing?''
''Uh... Uhhh... Just toying around with my sword, hehehe,'' Blushes Darucard as he showed her the simple-looking wooden sword.
''You called that a sword? Hahaha!'' The girl started laughing.
Darucard started rubbing his hair in a shy and blushy style. He never had this kind of feeling before. He stared at the girl with emotionless eyes as she started picking up the sword and running around.
They two started chatting by sitting down under a shady tree.
''What's your name?'' Asked the girl.
''Me? Darucard Spiegel, nice to meet ya!'' Darucard replied with a cheerful voice.
''How about yours?'' Darucard continued.
''Not telling you!'' Replied the girl with a naughty voice.
''Come on, tell me,''
''Perhaps next time, hehe,'' Then a butterfly suddenly flied across them. She immediately stood up and started chasing it.
Darucard just stared at her back running around with happy laughters. But then, a voice started calling out from outside the bush.
''Hey Lucy! Come home for dinner now will ya?'' Shouted an unknown male voice.
The girl immediately stopped and turned around showing a sad face. Darucard looked up at her and said,
''Whose that?''
''My brother,'' Replied the girl, probably named Lucy.
''Well, I guess you better get going,'' Said Darucard with a smile.
''I had fun! Hope to see you again! White hair boy!'' Said Lucy while walking away from Darucard.
''Hey, whats your name again?''
''Lucy, Lucy Drafneel!''
After that incident, Darucard never sees her again. Whenever he came back to the same old spot, and how hard he tried to yell during his practice, no one shows up again.
''Lucy... Where are you?''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
''That idiot Aero,'' Says Tanos, standing not far away from the battle that just ended.
Beruda stands beside him, he turns his head around and starts to check out the surroundings.
''What are you doing?'' Asks Tanos.
''Nothing,''
"That Aero, he's always soft-hearted during battle, such an idiot'' Says Tanos sarcastically.
''I think you better shut your filthy mouth up before someone cuts it down,'' Says a voice comes from behind Tanos.
It's Jyuro, already holding his reiattou. Looking eager to fight with one of allies.
''Where's Lute?'' Asks Beruda.
''To the girl,'' Answers Jyuro, with a smile on his face.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cain can't stand still, both his legs are hurt. Strouff stands across him, with a grin on his face.
''Sorry to say, after so many years, I'm better than you,'' Says Strouff with a sarcastic voice.
Cain suddenly appears behind of Strouff, he swings his reaittou against Strouff but misses, Strouff dodges away.
''You're still fast with both your legs being cut? Haha, but not fast enough!''
Strouff immediately dashes towards Cain while holding his reiattou behind his back. As soon as he reaches Cain, he lifts his right foot up and kicks against Cain's stomach but Cain blocks away with his fist but then Strouff's reiattou swing towards Cain all of a sudden, out of control, Cain dodges it but falls to the ground. Strouff is now holding the reiattou against Cain's throat, just an inch away from slitting it.
''How pity of you, lying on the ground, looking at me with those begging-for-forgiveness eyes, you're nothing but a weakling,'' Says Strouff with a serious voice.
Cain still remains calm while being put in this dangerous situation.
''Don't give me that calm and serious look, I'm tired of looking at it, any last words?'' Asks Strouff while pressing his reiattou against Cain's throat harder.
''Screw you,'' Says Cain calmly.
Strouff then fully presses his reiattou into Cain's throat in an enormous force. But then, Cain disappears into thin air.
''What?!'' Yells Strouff with a shocking look.
Cain then appears behind him. In top-shape without any injuries on him.
''I see, stupid kidou move,'' Says Strouff without looking at Cain whom is standing behind him.
''Now, I will be standing on the tallest sky, no one can ever stops me, no one!'' Yells Strouff as he suddenly channels all the reiatsu through his body. It's an amazing sight, even Cain's eyes got big and the serious look starts to develop while looking at it.
''Cain, look at me, just simply look. This body, this power, is an art, God gave me this art, and now, this art is going to wipe you away from history,'' Yells Strouff as his body is now glowing with all the blue reiatsu flame surrounding him.
''Kidou of Destruction, Violet Flames,'' Says Cain while firing a purple reiatsu energy blast towards Strouff.
But the attack did nothing at all, Strouff simply blocks it away with his hand.
''It's no use, you're too naive!'' Yells Strouff and follow by an evil laughter.
''Kidou in reiatsu is no use against him now, Cain, think, you must think,'' Says Cain to himself.
Right at that moment, Strouff djinns behind him. Cain is in shock for a moment.
''Farewell,'' Whispers Strouff into Cain's ear.

Chapter 16: A Crack On The Wall
** Impudence transforms into fear. **
Strouff holds back his reiattou from cutting down Tetsuo after hearing those words coming out from Cain's mouth, and then he stares at Cain's reiattou.
''It's been a long time since I last saw you with your reiattou,'' Says Strouff.
''You don't have the rights to decide whether I shall show you my reiattou or not,''
''Well then, let me take it away from your body, your soul,''
Strouff immediately jumps up to the air and spins towards Cain with his reaittou. Cain backs away from him instantly but Strouff then shows up behind him with his reiattou aiming Cain's throat.
But Strouff stops his hand right away. He didn't slit Cain's throat, but instead, he puts his reiattou against the throat and he whispers into Cain's ears,
''I win,'' Whispers Strouff.
Cain's face is as calm as always. He didn't have the fear in him at all, and then, he grins.
''Kidou of Trapping, Monarchy Guard,''
Cain jumps away from him and a form of reiatsu shield appears from 4 sides and traps Strouff inside it. Strouff is surprised by this counter attack.
He then touches his hand against the barrier, and he smiles.
''Cain Rouxfore, the former leader of the Shinigami Kidou Squad, and also the Chieftain of 2nd Division, you haven't change a bit at all, did you?'' Says Strouff with an alluring smile.
''None of your business,'' Replies Cain calmly.
''Oh, how pity of you then, Kidou of Destruction, Dragon Crash Hyphoon!'' Yells Strouff and then he breaks open the barrier with a blue reiatsu energy blast.
Cain's face turns into a even more focus and serious look after the incident. He grips on to his reiattou even harder this time and is ready withstand any attacks from his opponent, Strouff.
''Strouff Gengall, Chieftain of 7th Division,'' Says Strouff with a serious voice while pointing his reiattou at Cain.
Strouff then dashes towards Cain again. This time, he djinns zigzagly trying to confuse Cain thus creating many illusions of him in his trail. Cain stands still and focus on Strouff's movement.
When Strouff closes in, Cain immediately jumps upward and strike down with his reiattou. But Strouff blocks it easily with his reiattou. Then Strouff punches Cain in his stomach with his left fist.
Cain vomits out blood immediately but then he regains his balance and jumps back to land on the ground. He presses his hand against his stomach and gasps for air.
''Giving up already?'' Says Strouff sarcastically.
Cain then stares at Strouff, with that anger can be seen in both of his eyes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Colt collapses onto the ground with his reiattou, he is gasping for air. Bruises can be seen everywhere on his body. His opponent stands before him. He is a tall guy, short and buzz-cut hair and slanted eyes. Not to mention that he has an asian-look.
''You're easy,'' Says Gonzhuca, whom is Colt's opponent.
''Not so fast!'' Yells Colt as he gets up from the ground and starts swinging his reiattou against Gonzhuca.
Gonzhuca blocks away all the attacks without much trouble but then suddenly Colt kicks in and Gonzhuca got pushes backward. He then grips on to his reiattou and smiles.
''That's the spirit,'' Says Gonzhuca, and he continues,
''Well then, I shall let you suffer,'' He pauses for a while thus staring at Colt.
''[First Tear, Mammothnic Rage]'' Yells Gonzhuca.
His body starts to transform. His muscles are building up grotesquely and enormously. Soon enough, he now possesses a giant body. Both his fists are huge and destructive. Colt is seriously shocked by what is standing before his eyes.
''Are you scare now?'' Says the giant Gonzhuca, and he continues after a short pause,
"This is my First Tear, I don't need any reiattou, I am the weapon myself,''
Bearing the injuries on his body, Colt still does not want to give up on hope. He is prepare for the next fight at all cost.
''It's the first time that I witness such special form of First Tear,'' Colt says to himself.
"I gotta find a way to end him,''
Standing before an almost 15 feet tall giant, Colt has only one way to win this battle, and he decides it.
''[First Tear, Thirst Wolf]'' Says Colt calmly.
Right at the moment, Gonzhuca's fists already crush them with almighty force. Colt is lucky to have just dodges it right on time. Then, his blood wolves start to spawn. All with the demonic look developed on their faces, lusting for blood.
''It's show time, go!'' Yells Colt while pointing at Gonzhuca.
All the blood wolves started rushing towards Gonzhuca while barking. Gonzhuca tries to get rid of them by slamming his fists against them, but more and more wolves just keep on coming. Soon enough, dozens of wolves are biting his arms and legs. Gonzhuca, having a hard time to flick them away, he pounds his fists against the ground.
All the wolves immediately fly away and crashes onto the ground nearby.
Colt's face is now a mix of serious and focus.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not far away from the battle, stands Darucard and his opponent.
''What's that huge thing right over there?'' Asks Darucard sarcastically.
''It's Gonzhuca, in his First Tear,'' Replies his opponent calmly, that yellow hair and yellow eyebrows of him are seriously intriguing.
Darucard then turns his face against his opponent again. His opponent suddenly gives him a tired look.
''Come on, aren't you going to tell me your name?'' Asks the Shinigami.
Darucard immediately dashes towards him without saying anything.
''Gasps, I guess that's a NO,'' Says the Shinigami to himself.
He then blocks away Darucard's blow and pushes him aside. Darucard immediately regains his balance and djinns towards the Shinigami again.
This time, the Shinigami starts talking. Darucard then stops dead at his track and stares at him.
''The heaven's gate, the hell's door. All the waves, sits upon me and become my shield. All the lightnings, bow before me and become my blade. Fulfill my destiny, and I shall set your free. [First Tear, Ghoul Leg of Severing Razor]''
The Shinigami's reiattou starts to transform into a weird-looking blade and shield. The blade has 3 sharp ends which differs into pointing left, middle and right, and the shield is black and white in colour. His blade suddenly starts to glow.
''What's that all about?'' Asks Darucard sarcastically.
''My First Tear, aren't you watching just now?'' Says the Shinigami, with a grin.
''Sorry, too busy to look at such cheap things,'' Replies Darucard while looking away from him.
The Shinigami didn't get angry at all, he just smiles and points his blade at Darucard.
''Die,''
He releases his blade and the blade separated into three different blades and starts to glide towards Darucard.
Darucard is surprised by the unique attack. He jumps upward but the three blades just keep on following him.
The Shinigami then burst out an sinister laughter while Darucard is busy dodging the blades.
''No point running, the outcome is still the same!'' Yells the Shinigami.
Then out of no where, a reiattou pierces through his stomach. Blood starts flowing down. He is stunned by the surprising attack.
''What... is... it?'' Says the Shinigami, slowly.
Darucard is seen stabbing his reiattou into his own shadow. With a serious look on his face.
** Stay tuned for next chapter. **
