Diego kneeled over, panting as sweat cascaded in torrents down his face. He had definitely hit his limit for the time being; maybe it was time for him to step out and go home for the night. He figured it was going to take Kai more than one day to fully master his fullbring anyways. Both of his arms instantly reverted back to normal. He reached down to retrieve his jacket and vanished from the training area. "Back already?" Shigeru asked offhandedly. His eyes were still glued to the monitor. Diego slung his jacket across his shoulder and yawned. "Yeah, I'm going to call it a night. I doubt he's going to be finished anytime soon." "I wouldn't be so sure about that," Shigeru replied with a small teasing smile, "but okay, suit yourself." Diego waved and began to head for the front door. Biting her lip, Izumi suddenly ran up to his side to join him. "Mind if I walk back with you? It's a bit hot in here and all." A small blush forming on his cheeks, he nodded and they both left headquarters, walking in the dead of the night. Izumi shoved her hands into her pockets and Diego kept his gaze ahead, unsure of what to say. Despite being well liked, he had never really known how to approach girls without being awkward, so he usually kept his distance. "Your friend Kai, he's really something isn't he?" Izumi suddenly asked, breaking the awkward silence between them. Diego rubbed his neck and gave her a timid smile. "Yeah, I really don't know where we'd be without him. He's saved a lot of lives, including mine." Izumi raised an eyebrow. Diego had never talked about his past to the group before, or her for that matter. She was curious to find out exactly how, but maybe it wasn't the right time to ask. "Yeah, I know what you mean. Without Gen, most of us probably wouldn't be alive right now. Especially Shigeru, although he'd never admit it," she laughed. Diego looked down at her and stopped walking altogether, confusing Izumi. "Wha - ?" she began to ask. "You know this is a dangerous neighborhood, you really shouldn't be out with me at a time like this," Diego spoke, placing a hand lightly upon her shoulder. She blushed at the touch, but then scowled and knocked his hand away. "I'm not some damsel in distress, kid. I dropped that role a long time ago. Worry about yourself okay?" Diego grinned. Typical Izumi behavior. He suddenly found himself leaning down to her height and cupping her chin in his surprisingly soft hands. Her eyes widened; he wasn't really planning on making a move out of blue like this, right?! He didn't know what he was doing, or what was coming over him, but maybe he should just go with it. He leaned closer and Izumi's heart began to race. "And just what do we have here?" Both of them froze, and Diego's hand that was cupping her chin suddenly dropped to his side in shock. That voice... "You know, it's not wise to wonder off from your hideout like that... especially when when you're on the run from a certain someone. I wonder..., " he began to drag the tip of his katana on the ground as he advanced towards them, "what you teammates would think if I came back with you two lovebirds, hm?" "Orochi," Diego muttered, anger spiking through him like a relentless flame. |

Kai looked at Gen who was still smirking evilly, just what was up with Gen? Why was he acting so...malicious? Was it something to do with that Orochi guy? Kai didn't have time to be thinking of stuff like this right now, he could always ask Gen afterwards when they were done. Gen licked his lips, Kai didn't havea lot oflife left until his last life and he still had half a life bar left, he was going to enjoy this Gen instantly escaped from view, catching Kai by surprise. He jumped back just as Gen reappeared, swinign his blade. Gen followed it up with a lunge, but Kai stood firm and held his blade in front of him. He was knocked back due to the force and Gen ook this opportunity o jump into the air and bring his blade down right on Kai. Kai tried tol outo the ay but it way but it was all too quick Gen was standing by Kai's head after the flash which had ensued. Kai felt ead, but on a who breed of life shot through him, it was as he had feared....that was his second life gone "Now...you have two options", Gen said, holding 2 fingers up, "One, you can just let me destroy you and fail this training session..." Kai mustered up the strength to get back to his knees "Or two....stand up and fight for your life" Kai got back to his feet, gripping his Fullbring more than ever. He wasn't about to give up now, no he had come too far. He held his Fullbring tightly in front of him "I see....well then...get ready for the final round...cos this is truly the end" |

“Ah,” Orochi smiled brightly, “it seems you remembered my name this time, Diego.” “How the hell did you even find us? Don’t you anything else better to do?” Izumi snapped. Orochi’s ashen eyes slanted towards her direction and she felt that same chill from before go down her spine almost instantly. “This really isn’t like you, Izumi. Hiding behind someone, hm? You’ve changed…,” he mused. The corner of his lips twitched into a tiny grin, “if I recall correctly, you were usually the one throwing yourself in front of me.” Izumi’s eyes widened in shock, moments later her shock transforming into pure rage, “I have no idea what you’re talking about you piece of sh–“ Suddenly Diego blazed forward, his arm immediately igniting and connecting with Orochi. There was a loud explosion, and the rafters of the construction site they were in front of swayed dangerously from the impact. Izumi lowered her arms as the smoke cleared. Diego was on one side of the lot and Orochi was pulling himself to his feet, cracking the joints of his neck back into place. “It doesn’t take a lot to set you off, does it? That’s going to cost you dearly, Diego.” Orochi smirked. He brandished his katana and leaped for Diego, who had taken a firm defensive stance. “Steel bullet!” A sudden bank of vibrant emerald light engulfed the area. Orochi had held up his arms to block the assault just in the nick of time. He lowered them down, the sleeves of his button-up shirt charred from the impact. Izumi was in front of Diego, a bulky white revolver aimed directly at Orochi. Her finger lingered cautiously on the trigger and her gaze was hardened. “You don’t want to test me, Orochi. You know exactly what my fullbring is capable of,” she spoke darkly. The slender fullbringer raised a thin eyebrow and chuckled to himself. “I have no reason to fear the likes of you, Izumi. What you really should fear right now…is me.” Izumi dug her boots into the gravel and cast Diego a fleeting glance. “You can either help me take this guy down before he gets to XCUTION, or get out of here as fast as you can. Either way, I’m not leaving here until he’s dead and buried.” Shaking the surprise off of his face, he became serious and stepped to Izumi’s left side. “You don’t have to worry about me leaving. I’m on your side, whatever happens,” he declared. Izumi wanted to smile, but now was not the appropriate time. Orochi needed to be stopped… and fast. |

Kai held his Fullbring in front of him as he felt a new lease of life shoot through him. Gen held his blade up and pointed it right at him. There was no need for words, this was just the calm before the storm. This whole place was going to get ripped up to shreds once they resumed fighting. Something deep down inside of Kai was relishing the idea of this final part of the fight and he wasn't sure why, maybe it was his Shinigami influence? Who knows, but whatever it was it wasn't going anytime soon. Kai had to fight to protect his life now, any sort of mstake and he would be sleeping in the forever black. The grip got harder as he anticipated the continuation of this intense battle. Kai had a handicap right now, but he knew if he could get Gen down to his last life without getting hit, he would have a chance of winning this, he had to win there was no question about it. Gen shuffled his feet forward slightly, it would seem like he was getting ready to attack...or he was just itching for Kai to stop standing there and attack already. Silence wrapped around the whole battlefield, the tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife... And so it began....
And without any hesitation both of them went for each other. Steel clanged as both blades hit each other, rnging out and echoing all over the place. There was such a force between those hits that Shigeru's screen was lucky to still be breathing. They both jumped back and instantly went for each other again
Another loud clang echoed all around as both fighters pushed each other backwards and forwards, trying t gin the upper hand in this fight. Kai managed to get the better of Gen who was taken aback and stumbled backwards. Kai jumped up and slashed forward his blade, catching Gen across the chest and forcing him to stagger backwards. Kai swung his blade in front of him as he readied himself for another attack. Gen shook his head, did that really just happen? He held his sword as he ran at Kai again. Kai blocked and jumped to the side as Gen pushed forward. Kai landed ont theground and then sprung right at him, blade pulled back. He threw it forward, hoping to feel the texture of flesh ripping through his sword. All he got was this air and a kick to the back
His plan to get Gen down to one life without getting hit hadno failed, but he was never going to give up, no that wasn't the style of Kai, it never has been. His will to win was much too powerful to give up now. He ran at Gen, taking hm by surprise and speared him down to the ground. As Gen was falling he flipped off and over his and landed behind him. Gen rolled backwards, thinking he would have got away from Kai, but he got itll wrng and felt cold steel rip through his warm flesh. He swore in pain as he jumped up and swung violently at Kai who easily sidestepped to the side and went underneath the swung to catch Gen with a fatal uppercut "Wow...Gen's lost two lives now....", Asakura said, amazed, "This Kai kid is quite something" "Not falling for him are we?", Kienzan joked, pushing his glasses up "Oh....OF COURSE NOT!!!", Asakura shouted, blushing and trying to ignore Kienzan's chuckling Gen held his chin in his hand and shook his head, this cannot be happening? Gen now had one life left just like Kai and this battloe was so open now either one of them could come out triumphant. Gen looked at Kai as anger began boiling up within his blood, something had struck a nerve with Gen ever since this fight had begun and he had never actually been able to shake it off. He was seeing Kai as a means to vent all of this anger that was pent up inside of him. A smile cracked onto his face, he loved the thrill of a battle
Kai rushed at Gen who was standing in a defensive stance. He held his blade up and blocked the oncoming attack of Kai and oushed him back. He then ran forward, poking his blade forward. Kai deflected it and pushed the blade up and ran underneath it and slashed vertically at Gen. He jumped back, avoiding the attack, bringing his blade back down. kai jumped to the right, dodging it completely. He then ran at Gen, holding his blade with two hands now and pulled it back. He swung it forward and met Gen's blade. They then initiated a whole series of slashes against each other. All of them were being blocked by one another, before eventually they knocked each other back and got ready to pounce again
"This is is Kai...THE END IS NIGH!!!!" Kai had no words left to say, he found it hard to move let alone talk. He could feel his life slowly sapping way from his body, just how did Gen do this? He summoned up the energy and brought his blade up. Gen ran forward and full pelt and buffeted right into Kai as he was about to charge. There were a few vicious swipes from Kai's end as he got back to his feet. Gen was forced backwards with a huge cut down his face. Kai jumped back up and went right for Gen once again. Gen smirked as he readied himself for the coming attack. Kai went left, Gen blocked it. Gen went right, Kai blocked, it was like it was on a replay, a constant loop. Every hit was being anticipated and consequently blocked as a result. They both locked up once again and forced each other backwards. They then ran forward at each other once again and locked up once again. They quickly jumped back and then ran forward once again. kai ducked under the attack Gen went for and swiped his blade as he did. Gen quickly jumped over it and rolled over the attack and got back to his feet quicker than Kai. He went for another swipe down Kai''s back, but Kai had already shun-poed away from the attack. This fightwas so even it was hard to cal a winner. Kai could feel his bidy beginnig to give way, but he couldn't stop now, he had come too far to lose it all now. His body dropped as he stood back up, he could feel intense pain all over his body. He had pushed his body to the limit here, he wished that he had his Shinigami body back now, but that wasn't going to happen anytime soon, he had to deal with this. He picked himself up and looked dead inton the eyes of Gen who stood mere yards in front of him, he knew this was signalling the final attack of the game
They both stood still for a few seconds and then in one sudden movement they were behind one another. Blood spurted out of Kai's side and Gen's chest as they both were on one knee behind each other, but which one was going to fall...there was this sickening feeling that it would be....
Gen got to his feet, Kai's attack was fatal, but not enough. He turned around and staggered towards the floored Kai and pointed his sword down at him "That was...good", Gen said, panting, "But not good enough....." Gen then threw his sword in the direction of wher Kai lay.....and hit the ground "But you don't deserve death...it seems....you have been able to control that...Fullbring of yours pretty....well...", Gen said, falling flat on his back, "I guess....this means....you...pass...."

Without warning, Orochi charged towards Izumi and Diego. Diego brought his right arm out, the armor around it lighting up and turning completely white. Orochi brought his katana down, and Diego hit back, a bright explosion engulfing the both of them. The area rocked for a few moments before settling down, debris falling on the ground. Izumi looked around, thankful that they were coincidently in an abandoned construction sight. The smoke cleared. Half of Orochi’s shirt had been blown off from the shockwave of Diego’s attack. He looked down from one of the steel beams from where he had landed, seeing a battered Diego glaring up at him. Orochi smoothed his hair back, a distasteful expression on his face. “Really? You’re a bit ungrateful, Diego. Attacking someone that saved your life? Tsk tsk.” “I’ve never met you before today,” Diego replied darkly. A quick flash of memory appeared in his head and his eyes widened. “Nonsense. Don’t you remember? It was I that took you in when your father died. Remember all those fights you got into in high school? Who was the one that defended you from those thugs, hm?” No… That had been Kai… right? Hadn’t he been the one to defend him those years ago? There was a sudden flash of Orochi punching a random thug in the face, and helping a wounded Diego to his feet. Then another of a younger Diego crying on the front steps of an unknown house and Orochi opening the door and letting him inside. But what about… What about Kai? Diego held his throbbing head in his hands, the repressed memories overwhelming him like a large tidal wave. Izumi looked on in disbelief. “Diego no, attack him! This is your chance he’s wide open!” she screamed. Diego let out a strangled yell and collapsed to the ground. “DIEGO!” enraged, Izumi whipped out her gun. Orochi appeared behind her in a split second, stabbing his katana through her chest. Her gun dropped from her hand, mouth wide in shock as she too fell to the ground right beside Diego and became unconscious. He re-sheathed his sword, a tiny smile on his face as he disappeared. Now to initiate the final phase of the plan. - "I'm still in shock, you guys. No one's ever gotten Gen that damaged," Shigeru remarked, eyes eagerly watching the screen. There was the sound of a door opening and closing; no one looked up, thinking it was Izumi returning from her walk with Diego. Shigeru cracked his knuckles and yawned. "About time you got back, what were guys doing anyways?" Shigeru asked. No response. Frowning, he looked up, and then froze. There was Orochi, standing in front of the door with his katana drawn out. A large vicious grin spread across his face. "Well well, you're all right where I want you. Perfect." Everyone reached for their weapons, but he was too quick. In the blink of an eye, Asakura, Kienzan, Shigeru, all of them were viciously stabbed and sprawled out in various places on the floor. Laughing, Orochi gently lay his sword across his shoulders. "So sorry I had to do this but... I decided it was time for you all to wake up and remember what your true intentions are." He turned around, one last fleeting look at the laptop, before disappearing in a flash of light. |

Kai slowly sat up and shook his head. He looked around seeing Gen laying on the floor next to him, bloodied and bruised, did he do that to him? "Finally awake?", Gen asked, smiling Kai shook his head and rubbed his eyes, his Fullbring was now back to the Shinigami badge that it formed from "Yeah...but I feel absolutely dead..." "Haha, me too, you did well...no one has ever damaged me that much" Gen sat up and looked at Kai "Now all we have to do is wait for Shiggy there to get us out of here" "Wait...what?" "Did you not hear me? You passed, you seem to be able to control that Fullbring of yours pretty well..." Kai looked at Gen, that was his training, done? There was a catch to this wasn't there? "OI SHIGGY!! OPEN UP!!!!" Edited by Grimmjow, Feb 28 2012, 12:42 AM.

"Alright, shut up," Shigeru grumbled. His head was strangely aching and he felt groggy as if he had been asleep. After clicking a few buttons, Kai and Gen materialized in front of them, just as Izumi walked through the door with a scowl on her face. She said nothing to Kai or Gen as she took her spot on the wall. "You can thank me, I sped up time while you were in there so it wouldn't take forever. My battery almost died you know," he complained as he shut his laptop down. "Diego wanted you to stop by his house before you went home," Izumi stated, sending a glare towards Kai, "don't forget , okay?" |

Gen looked at Shigeru and stuck his tongue out "There's a thing called a plug Shiggy" Kai nodded as he looked at Izumi "Yeah sure, I'll check in on him on my way back...." Kienzan remained silent as he pushed his glasses up and Asakura was now staring at Kai dreamily Edited by Grimmjow, Feb 28 2012, 12:49 AM.

Shigeru glared at Gen, but kept silent. He looked at Kai and nodded his head towards the front door. "Well shouldn't you be getting on now? It's getting late out there, you know. We'll call you if anything comes up." "Basically, get the hell out." Izumi yanked Kai by the front of his shirt, opened the door and threw him out. The door closed behind him with a slam and she dusted her hands off. Shigeru shook his head, embarrassed. "or there's always that option..." he muttered. |

Kai shook his head as he picked himself up "THERE ARE NICER WAYS OF KICKING SOMEONE OUT!!!!", he shouted to the door He then began walking away from the place in the direction of Diego's house --- Gen looked at Izumi "What crawled up your butt 'Zumi?" |
