I'm assuming we're skipping over Xing here, so the Shadows' attack towards him has been skipped also.


Ryruki would find out perhaps even more clearly than Hajime had what a bad idea it was to ignore an opponent, no matter how insignificant they might seem at first. The injured man would now find his heroic effort to stand and face Gwang hampered by five demonic Shadows who, having gotten to him without him even noticing their presence somehow, immediately latched onto him and began to dig in. They scraped and tore away at his chest, ripping at armor, tearing at flesh...

If he--or anyone else--didn't do something about them real quick, his heart would be theirs for the taking. That wouldn't look good, losing your heart in your first battle, now would it?

The other combatants wisely chose to take heed of the new swarm. Lavender managed to dispatch two at once simply by slamming them into one another. They really weren't all that bright, and compared to the Aeromancer weren't all that strong either. While her headbutt didn't do much except distract the Shadow behind her for a moment, the wind blade she formed next took care of the remaining three. They'd done their job, though; it would seem she was down to using more conventional means of defending herself and others.

That other being Star, who obliterated the first two unlucky Shadows who tried to pounce her simply by radiating her destructive light. The other three leapt away and seemed to rethink their orders... only to be struck down by Lavender's submachinegun. She was safe from them... for now.

Den-Otoha likewise proved to be way too powerful a foe for the Shadows, loosing herself from their pinning grasp and blasting them into bits before Kazuna had a chance to hit her. It was that, really, which pissed off Ayane the most. Watching Kazuna get kicked in the rear like that, falling flat on her face... it meant that Ayane had failed to be able to help.

As much as she wanted to give more direct assistance to her newfound comrade, though, there were much more pressing matters at hand. Aisia had taken her slash with that relatively massive shield of hers head-on. Ayane could feel the wild crimson blade slicing into Aile's armor. In a few more moments, she'd be able to cut through! "Give it up, Aisia! There's no way for you to win!"

"...YOU'RE WRONG!"

"...!"

[CAST OFF | CAST ON | CHANGE SWORD]

The Aile's parts blew away from Strike's form, shoving Ayane's blade back. It was only for a moment, but that instant was all Aisia needed. Sword Strike's parts reformed on her armor, and Ayane watched as she tossed away her Keyblade in exchange for grasping the Schwet Gewher with both hands. "It's true that we have to find our own happiness... and maybe we do need to change. But if that happiness comes at the expense of others, then that isn't true happiness at all! There IS a way to save all the worlds... AND I WILL FIND IT!"

Ayane's blade came down on empty air. Aisia stepped aside the moment the Faiz Edge broke through the casted-off Aile parts, slamming the blunt 'blade' into Faiz's chestplate with so much force that it caused sparks--and Ayane herself--to fly. Considering the Faiz Gear's penchant for coming detatched at a moment's notice, it was lucky she didn't aim any lower... it just meant Ayane had the wind knocked out of her and went sprawling across the ground a few feet away.

She laid there, replaying the last few seconds in her mind, watching the sword slam into her and then the world spin. She'd been careless...as usual. It didn't mean she was out of the fight, but she could have been. What if she'd hit the Gear? That could have been the end of it.

"I don't have time for drama, Ayane. Do you need my aid to finish her? I don't want to loose my supporter..."

Gwang's voice resounded in her mind, stirring the Darkness in her heart, pulling her back to her feet. Unsteadily, she brought herself up to a kneel stared down Kamen Rider Strike. He was right. This charade had gone on long enough. Hyakuji could not wait any longer. "...yes. Keep her down. I'll finish her right now."

There was hesitation in her voice. While the Dark in her wanted to just kill Aisia outright... Ayane herself didn't. No matter how misguided that other girl was, it was still Aisia Asakura. She had not forgotten DkiDo Land for a second; there was still a lingering thought in the back of her mind. 'Don't kill her. Destroy her armor, destroy her will, but don't kill her'.

As she removed the Mission Memory from the Faiz Edge, she could only hope that this next attack would only go that far. Leo had warned that as with any of the Faiz Gear's equipment, it hadn't been tested. Ayane always skipped that in favor of having weapons sooner. The Faiz Edge, now just a handle for a motorcycle, was tossed aside. In its place, she pulled a flashlight-like device from her belt and slipped the Mission Memory in.

[READY]

The cylindrical end extended, and she snapped the device in place on the side of her right ankle. "I'm sorry you feel that way, Aisia, but this world no longer has the right to exist. ...Good-bye." She flipped the Faiz Phone open and hit [ENTER], closing it and crouching low, power flowing through the Photon Blood from the Phone down her leg to the newly-attatched Faiz Pointer.

[EXCEED CHARGE]

Ayane sprung to her feet, running a few steps before taking a grand leap and extending her feet towards Strike. The Faiz Pointer shot forth a beam of red light, a flash that would seem to magically halt in midair right in front of Strike and open into some sort of odd cone that quite appropriately pointed from Faiz directly towards her. Ayane's kick was pulled directly towards it, where if it worked correctly she'd be pulled at lightspeed through the portal, kicking right through Stike with her Crimson Smash!

"Are you alright?" Lavender heard a voice address her, and looked up at the young man who had just rushed to her aid, blasting at any remaining Heartless that may threaten her. "What exactly is happening here? The brief version will do."

Lavender took a few deep breaths to settle herself. "This world is in peril," the aeromancer began, pointing at Gwang with the muzzle of her submachine gun. "This guy is searching for the metaphorical 'heart' of the world along with two others... but we can't let them succeed! Otherwise this world will be destroyed." That was really all the energy Lavender had left to speak - battered was her body and frayed were her wits. However, Star answered Ryruki's question to his satisfaction.

"What Star said..." Lavender whispered.

The amethyst-haired aeromancer lifted her head, staring defiantly at the intimidating figure of the vampire general in all his unholy glory. Was that all she could do? At a time when Arcadia needed her most, all she could do was to stare in the face of her impending doom? Lavender gritted her teeth in frustration, cursing her helpless state as her other hand clawed a handful of masonry out of the pavement below. "Do your worst, monster." Lavender replied, her eyes blazing. "Even if you strike me down right here, a dozen more will rise in my in place. The likes of you can never prevail!" Even if she were to die, Lavender would make sure that at the very least, her enemy wouldn't get the satisfaction of seeing her grovel or beg for mercy - a display of martyrdom which would make it a Pyrrhic victory to some extent for Gwang.

Lavender grunted as Ryruki shoved her out of the way, sparing her from the worst of Gwang's attack, but at the expense of his own well-being. And to make matters worse, a second shockwave was sent at Star!

"NO!" Lavender shouted as she thrust out her free hand, putting whatever remaining reserves of strength she had left into a Gale Hammer - it was a lot weaker than the ones she normally threw out as crowd control - partially due to her weakened state, and also because the target was Star; with any luck, Lavender could push the photomancer out of harm's way with her desperation maneuver.

((OOC: Oh wow, I don't beleive I completely missed that 5 shadow attack against Ryruki))

Ryruki barely managed to react to a shadow leaping at him. He caught it in his shifted arm but before he could do anything fatal, four more reinforced it. Ryruki was forced back two steps as the weight of the shadows threatened to knock him over.

Do shadows actually have weight? he wondered before shaking his head of the irrelevant thought.

They started clawing, he started hurting. The blade retracted once again as he threw the caught shadow away. He felt blood flow free from his chest, he was disadvantaged greatly but he tried his best. He grabbed another, ripped it off his chest and threw it away before realising such attempts at removing the threat would be too inefficient to be effective.

"Screw it!" he shouted as he jumped up and went for the body slam, hoping to inflict enough force against the three hanging on to kill them.

But the landing was not optimal at all. Three broken ribs, to his count, were not going to take the body slam very well, nor was a cut up chest. He could only grint through the pain as he got back up to his feet as quickly as possible, incase the other two recovered from the throws and tried to attack him again.

The images and sounds were overpowering, and Hajime struggled to keep a clear head to focus on the deadly situation at hand. So many things flooding his mind that he almost felt like his head would explode anytime; images of a world he was sure was his, of people he met, and the ones he loved.

Hajime shook the images away, finally finding the chink in his sudden memory burst to focus back on the task at hand. But before he could do anything first, movement to his right made him look to find Den-O slashing wildly at the Heartless that were around him which he didn’t remember was there earlier. All the while, she was also apparently talking to him, words which he is able to pick up, spoken by a familiar voice.

“Yeah, you heard me right.” Hajime answered, raising his flame sword and resting an edge on his shoulder pad. “And you’re Otoha, wasn’t it? I recognized that voice anywhere.”

Before he could say anymore however, he saw on one side Kazuna coming up to Den-O and preparing to strike the unaware masked warrior. “Watch out!” Hajime shouted, as he ran to her and puts himself between Kazuna and Den-O, raising his Flame Sword to parry her slash. “I got a lot of questions to ask, but now’s not the time.” Hajime managed to say to Den-O before turning back to Kazuna.

“Kazuna, snap out of it! Don’t do this, this isn’t like you! Didn’t you say you wanted to protect the defenseless with your powers?! Answer me!”

"Not so fast!" said Star, raising her hand. A curtain of light fell around Ryruki, that light having the same potency that the light she used to defend herself did. It probably wouldn't do much against anything stronger, but it was probably likely to help him out with his Shadow problem. Unfortunately, because of that, she had missed one critical detail.

Star's eyes widened as Gwang sent a shockwave towards her, her mouth opening in a silent scream. She stood frozen in place, unable to move. Somehow knowing that if she moved, she could never get out of the way in time. The wind suddenly slammed into her side thanks to Lavender's Gale Hammer and she found herself getting thrown to the side away from the blast.

Star screamed as the force from the shockwave propelled her further than Lavender's wind and she slammed into the ground. She felt her ankle twist painfully and she screamed again as she landed, her scream cut short as the impact knocked the wind out of her. Tears welled up in her eyes from the sudden flash of pain in her leg. She couldn't get up! She couldn't get up! Panic threatened to overtake her as she looked up at Gwang, the light around her pulsing erratically as she tried to push herself up into a sitting position.

Aisia swung with all of her might. Not that it mattered, since she wasn't aiming to kill Ayane either, just knock her away. It seemed that it did the trick.
However, it seemed that Ayane had something else up her sleeve as she pulled out a flashlight like object and slipped the Mission Memory into it before clicking it in place on her shin.

"I'm sorry you feel that way, Aisia, but this world no longer has the right to exist."
"What!? Ayane-"
"...Good-bye."
[EXCEED CHARGE]

With a running jump. she leaped into the air to execute a Rider Kick, but some kind of beam shot forth from her shin! Aisia instinctively blocked it with her Panzer Eisen shield mount, but something about the beam stunned her and kept her in place!
"Nggghhh!..."

Suddenly, Ayane was sucked into the portal created by the Crimson Smash. Because Aisia was still resisting the attack, she more or less remained embedded halfway through. However, the attack was doing one thing - breaking through Strike's defenses as the drilling attack slowly drained her of power with each passing second!
"I... Why..."
She felt her will to fight being sucked away as Ayane's overpowering final attack was grinding into her shield...

WHOOSH!

Suddenly, a black disk was thrown at Ayane from her right. It was thrown at her with great force - if Aisia was lucky, Ayane would be knocked off from the shield as she took advantage of the distraction to shove her off! But where did it come from, and... why was the disk a manhole cover?



The answer would be clear as a purple armored Rider emerged from the manhole it previously covered. Kamen Rider Kiva (finally) managed to get into the fray after chasing Aisia down across downtown. She couldn't really fly, nor was she too used to the place, so she actually kind of got lost on the way here, and couldn't really enter earlier thanks to Gwang's barrier.

... So, an unorthodox path was blazed under the tunnels. She was in Dogga form and was about to break the floor above them when they felt they were above the battlegrounds when Kivat found the manhole cover.

"... It stinks," Kiva sighed as she dragged her Dogga Hammer behind her.
"... Well, at least you didn't decide to smash the floor with the hammer instead," Kivat chuckled. "So, what exactly did we miss?"
"... A lot. Vampire wannabe up ahead."
"Oi, oi, shouldn't we help that other Rider first though!?"
"... The Vampire is a bigger threat."

Of course, given that it took her quite a while to get here, all she did was simply drag her hammer and slowly approach Gwang. If Riders' eyes could change shape, it would probably look like a wicked gleam as she slowly got closer...



"Yeah, you heard me right. And you’re Otoha, wasn’t it? I recognized that voice anywhere," Agito said.
"... That voice... IT COULDN'T BE! YOU'RE-"
"Watch out!" Hajime shouted yelled before running behind Den-O to stop Kazuna's sneak attack! "I got a lot of questions to ask, but now’s not the time."
She's right! While we're still fighting here, we gotta face the real enemy!

Den-O sighed at Liz. "Fine! I get it! This blood sucking bastard's been getting on my nerves anyway," she sighed as she brandished her Dengasher on her left and materialized the Keyblade on her right!
"HEY! YOU VAMPIRE BASTARD! THIS TIME, SHIT'S FOR REAL! FROM THIS POINT ON, I'M GONNA CLIMAX ALL OVER YOUR DELUSIONAL ASS!"

[FULL CHARGE]

This time, she would take the attack to Gwang himself. She was already tired of this bullshit anyway.
She dashed towards the vampire, her swords blazing with light energy as she made to run the bastard through with a one-two strike with her Dengasher as the starting slash followed by the Keyblade!

Gwang used his massive sword to parry blow after blow from the Den-O. Even if the light was weakening it he was just drawing in Lavender's spilled blood to reform it. The injured combatants made him stronger, a vampire fed off the wounds of others. The longer the fight dragged on the less likely they were to win, "So, you're finally concerned with me...? I'm honored.." He said sarcastically. 'However you must know you can't beat me..."

He glanced towards the purple one. "Oh look, it's clowns in brightly colored armor day." He said before sending a pulse of energy from his sword meant to knock the person back.

Ruruki's spilled blood lifted from the ground and flowed into gwang's lips. His injuries healed much more rapidly and his body swelled up. He roared out with power and rage, extending his black wings to their maximum length. "WELL THEN, SEND IN THE CLOWNS, SEND THEM ALL IN! It's futile! You've lost! look at oyur injured.... Can you even win?!" He scoffed swinging the sword like a massive baseball bat, with enough force heading for Den-O to put quite the hurting on that armored warrior if it hit. However, he was truthfully just lining up...

For this..

A second massive beam of light and power. The one that had healed and restored him earlier was now shooting out again, the enormous beam was headed fight for Den o.. But beyond her was Aisia. He would absorb the life from them both... So long as Ayane wasn't forced away by the manhole lid then they would have her pincered. If she moved she'd be hammered by the crimson, if she stayed she'd be drained of her life force...

Nowhere to run and if either got hit? Gwang became stronger... .. A lose/lose for his opponents. Gwang's favorite military strategy usually didn't even INCLUDE a loosing scenario.

Star was injured..

Ruruki was injured..

Lavender was on the brink of death..

And Gwang was as strong as ever thanks to their spilled blood. This world was doomed.

Still in the warped space created by the Pointer's warp vortex, Ayane grimaced. The rapid drill kick had not yet penetrated the Strike's shield, but it was working. Soon... seconds, even... she'd break through that damn barrier and end--

The next thing Ayane knew, she was sprawled out on the pavement staring up unassisted by sensors at the smog-filled skies of Hyakuji's battle-torn downtown district. She had no idea how it had happened, but after shaking off the disorientation it was obvious that whatever happened, it had caused her to lose both the Faiz Gear and her glasses. They'd been tossed somewhere out of sight.

Of course, what had happened was a manhole cover had slammed into the Faiz Driver while she was trying to attack Strike, knocking the belt clean off and sending her flying.

If Ayane was angry earlier, she was enraged now. She pulled herself to her feet and stumbled forward. Walked towards where Strike crouched. Briskly paced towards her. Then ran.

"GAAAAAAAATE OOOOOOPEN!!!"

Unfiltered by the lenses of her now-lost glasses, Ayane's eyes shone bright cyan against the dark miasma of the Downtown air. She had no choice. Without the Gear, there was only one way to finish this, and that was by using her own damned power. She didn't need weapons. If there was one thing being a Rider taught her, it's that even a kick or a punch was more effective if you had energy behind it!

So that's what she did. Her Gate of Gale formed ahead of her as she ran, then disappeared around her as she reared her fist back, focusing all of the energy she'd unlocked into her arm. The poisonous fog curled and spun around her, picked up and amplified by the vortex her powers produced...

Then, she slammed all of her might into Strike. Her love, her anger, and all of her sorrow. Her Gate of Gale, her Heart of Darkness, her Minions of Shadow. Every power she had left, every emotion that surged through her mind, all released in a single punch.

She didn't even pay mind to what Gwang was doing. All that mattered now was destroying Strike. Its stubborn presence, as far as Ayane was concerned, was the only road block between her and getting Hyakuji back!

Perhaps if she'd known that Kiva was the one who had knocked her out, she would've done something about it. For now, though... Aisia was in danger. Gwang would have to deal with the rest himself.

Not that it seemed like it'd be much trouble for the God.



Thankfully for Ryruki, Star's intervention saved him from being completely devoured. Her pure light veil immediately purged his body of the Shadows, their forms vanishing in puffs of purple smoke as if they'd never even existed. The wounds on his body and his torn clothing were the only testaments left to their violent presence.

Pain.

Star's fingers scratched at the ground around her as she tried, unsuccessfully to push herself to her feet. She let out little shrieks each time she pushed herself up. Pain laced through her ankle and she crashed towards the ground again as the battle raged on around her. Each sound seemed amplified. Each little scream, each ripple of power surrounded her like a whirlpool, dragging her under until it felt like she couldn't breathe. Frustration surged through her, blood from her earlier wounds spilling onto the pavement as she beat the ground once with her fist.

Desperation.

Thrum. Thrum. Light flared around her erratically, lashing out in different directions as Star slammed her hands hard on the ground. She screamed. She could feel it now, something raging, building inside her. It consumed her. Light consumed her. She threw her head back, her eyes wide open. Gold consumed violet as she looked skywards, her mouth open in a silent scream.

Rage.

Light fell around her, jagged bolts that would have looked like electricity to anyone that didn't know better. Star was lost. Her concept of herself was completely gone, lost in the pain and the anger. As if she was possessed, her body seemed to rise of its own accord, but it didn't stand. It hovered. The light around her increased in intensity so that it was almost blinding, a pillar shooting skyward with her in the center of it. Her eyes were completely golden now, and glowing. The blood that had been flowing freely from her injuries changed to light. She bled light. She was light. It became her entire world.

Symbols appeared all over her, on any exposed skin of her body as if in protest. They glowed, and for a moment the light seemed to dim in brilliance. Two rings, concentric circles, spread from her feet rotating in a way that suggested containment, as if she could be contained. But that was the past.

With a sound like shattering glass one of the symbols broke. A few moments later, a second followed. A much larger sound and the inner ring shattered, cracking the earth around it in its weight. Light burst from this pillar in the shape of sharp spears. They headed towards Gwang and one was heading towards Ayane's general direction, but it seemed as if Star had lost any sense of who or where she was, because there were spears of light that were shooting towards Aisia and Hajime as well.

A third symbol broke.

"Shut up..." Kazuna muttered in response to Hajime's attempts at convincing her. "I'm always in everyone's way..." While initially ignorant of everyone's words it seemed time had caused her defenses to weaken, backing off as Hajime parried her slash, her stance now obviously weakened: her hands were shaking as she gripped the Blay Rouzer!

"I'm the weakest...I always need someone to take care of me..." she muttered, fanning out the card holder once more, and unsteadily drew two cards. "If I can do something...anything to bring back people's homes and smiles...I don't care if I'll be hated for it..." She looked at the cards in hand, before back at Hajime. "So...I'm sorry. You can punish me later, but I'm not backing down..." she said solemnly...though she appeared to have tears welled up in her eyes as she ran the cards through the Rouzer

[KICK]

[THUNDER]

[AP: 400]


The images of Thunder Deer and Kick Locust formed behind her as she drove her blade into the ground, the giant projections of the card images imbuing themselves onto Kazuna and powering up for one, final attack.

Without another word, the girl jumped up, and came down at Hajime with an electrified flying side kick!

"... Ow."
Kiva Dogga Form flinched at the attack and didn't really say much. However, it was obvious from the strike that being sent back on your rear end as a result just made it harder to attack him. Sure, she could survive the hits, but at this rate she'd never get there in time.
"We need to change things up a bit! We're not going to reach that bastard at this rate!" Kivat said as Kiva finally managed to get back up on her feet.
"... Go."
This time, a blue fustele snapped in place on Kivat's mouth. "GARURU SABER!"

Suddenly, a blue wolf handle appeared in place of the Dogga Hammer, one that unfolded itself into an ornate sword! At the same time, her armor turned from purple to blue, endowing her with the lighter armor but with the agility of a wolf. This was Kiva's Garuru Form!

"Auuuu! So it's my turn to play, eh?" Kiva chuckled as she leaped into action. She was about to attack him though when she felt a strong pulse of energy coming from his general area, causing her to hesitate!



"This clown is going to kick your ass, you blood sucking bastard!" Den-O said as she dodged the giant sword by ducking under it, the giant blade barely missing her head. However, she felt the follow-up attack aimed at her!
"Oh, fuck you!" she groaned as she rolled out of the way of the attack. It was too late for her to realize though that...

... Aisia! She's going to get hit!



Aisia grunted as she felt the impact on her chest as Ayane punched her with her Gate. The discharge of energy as a result reverberated through out the armor, causing her teeth to rattle. Thankfully, unlike the last time, because Ayane wasn't in her Faiz Gear... she wasn't thrown clear of the battle area. The energy was strong enough (and because of the previous Crimson Smash) to drain most of the remaining energy from her suit and caused her to dehenshin, even as she kept her arms locked around Ayane's to stop her from moving.
"Ayane! S... STOP IT!" Aisia pleaded. Now that her face was no longer hidden behind the mask, it was made clear that she'd been crying the entire time. "This isn't right! Why do we have to-"

She stopped.

It felt like slow motion. For her, it probably was. First was the fact that there was a giant beam of energy headed towards her coming from Gwang. Second were the light spears being thrown her way.

There was almost no time to react.

Without blinking or even batting an eye, she did something that would probably make Ayane very, very angry.

She shoved her away from the line of fire. Away from Gwang's beam, and away from Star's Light Spears.

She staggered from the throw. There was no way to recover from it, no way to throw her self out of harm's way as a result.

The giant beam enveloped Aisia, swallowing her whole. At the same time, the spears ran through the spot where she was.

... And when it was over, nothing was left. Not even any essence for Gwang to suck away and regenerate him with, not that it seemed to matter. The forces of Light were down by one.

The only testament to her existence was a tattered green bow that floated down, traces of pink magical residue evanescing into the air.

"I'm sorry... the rest is all up to you," Lavender said, her voice a faint whisper as she fell from a kneeling position to lying prone, the last of her strength having left her limbs. Already pushing herself after taking Gwang's earlier finishing move, the aeromancer had finally pushed herself to the point when her body could give no more, literally straining herself to the limit and then some more. The only sign that Lavender was still alive was her shallow, labored breathing and her left hand - still clenched in a tight fist as a testament to the aeromancer's struggle to stay alive. Lavender wasn't going out just yet - but it was clear that at this point whatever fight she had left was focused solely on keeping herself from crossing over from life to death.

How tempting it was at this point to simply let go - all the hardship and pain she'd endured since then... all of it would come to an end. With supreme effort, Lavender lifted her head, and through a pair of half-closed eyes she witnessed the battle rage about her. Star... she thought, as the aeromancer beheld the sight of the photomancer, transformed into something more than human; what Damon told her was true, as her eyes changed from violet to gold and light poured from her wounds instead of blood. At this point Star seemed more light elemental than human - it was a sight that was mystifying and at the same time terrifying to behold. Perhaps it had been a mistake to have kept it in the dark from her.

However, Lavender was beyond caring at this point as her vision blacked out - for all intents and purposes, the Arcadian leader was out of commission.

((OOC: Ok then, scratch that last post by me. A tad disorientated by the fluid round system but I'm mostly to blame for that anyway. I am hoping this post would now be in correct placement.))

When the shadows attacked him, Ryruki was completely off guard. The blast from the evil one left his head spinning and the fog didn't help at all. All he could do against the shadows was to retract his blade and try desperately to pry them off his chest. He had started to become very bloodied before the shadows vanished, his body bathed in light.

He sat up and looked around, ignoring the pain as best as his could. He saw the one who saved him and she seemed to be in quite a bit of rage. The light was so bright, even through the fog. Ryruki coughed before he fell back onto his back. He barely did anything and yet he's already down. He had thought himself strong, but he was in a completely different league here.

He needed a way to stop the flowing blood. He also needed clean, fresh air. Ryruki fought the desire to just sleep but he was losing that battle as well as this one. He didn't quite know what was happening anymore. Did they lose? He needed to go and become stronger. This was all too much. He wanted a second chance, he wondered how he was going to get it.

Behind his mask, Hajime grimaced. Kazuna seems very resolute somewhat in her choice, albeit one that she made hastily under pressure. Plus, it seems their number is quickly dwindling down to a few individuals fighting it out against enemies from all sides. If there is one Hajime has to do right now, and be just as resolute in his choice to defend this world, by any means necessary.

Even, if it’ll hurt Kazuna and the others in the process.

After sending the young Blade back by parrying her attacks, Hajime felt first before seeing the incoming spears of light that Star was throwing at him, and he somersaulted backwards once to avoid it just in the nick of time. Yet, his eyes were still focused on Kazuna, as she prepares herself for another strike at him.

“I’m sorry, Kazuna…” Hajime said calmly, raising his right fist which was clenched tightly than ever, while his whole body started to glow with light. “But a home created through the sacrifice of millions… does not deserve to be called home!!!”

At that, a bright white light would emanate from his body, possibly blinding anyone in the immediate area for a moment before it dissipates and leaving Hajime standing where he was with a glowing right arm. He would then charge straight towards Kazuna’s kick, and as she comes down close to kick him, Hajime would retract his right arm back, and launches a punch straight at her!

TRINITY RIDER PUNCH!
