"Game over man, game over." Seth pounced on his now defenseless opponent, driving his keyblade into it's head. Just to make sure that it was indeed finished, he retrieved his keyblade and slashed it's body several times. "Facing off against me was your last mistake." Getting off it, after removing the blade from his side, he checked to make sure his wound was healed. No sense fighting the main enemy if she can exploit an injury.

He noticed that Xaturoh was a bit preoccupied. Still, that doesn't necessarily mean that she would just let him waltz right in and strike. "Wait for it. Wait for it. NOW!" He rushed to her as quickly as he could when he saw Duo strike. Readying his shield in front of him, he would ram her the moment she would be unable to stop it.

"Now here's where the fight gets really interesting." Seth grinned. It was finally time to see how good his swordsmanship really was.

Hajime was helpless, that much was certain as he could only weakly look on as the fight around him escalates into a definite offensive against Xaturoh herself, and the sight of the struggle continuing without him made Hajime felt sad and his heart heavy. In his current moment of weakness, it began to dawn on him that this feeling wasn’t just because of him being unable to fight.

What was it that was making him feel sad all of a sudden?

"Dammit!" Den-O yelled as she ran to Hajime's aid and propped him on her shoulder. "How could you do this to the person you love!?" Hajime heard Otoha said somewhat inaudibly from Hajime’s current weakened perception.

"It is precisely because of that that I did that," Hajime heard Xaturoh mocked back. "Think about it for a second! What better way to convince you that I should be quickly dealt with?"

This isn’t right, this isn’t how it’s supposed to be, Hajime thought to himself, as he was unceremoniously pushed, shoved and flown away from the spot he and Den-Otoha was on just moments ago which was the spot of a magical attack with Kazuna caught in it.

This just isn’t right at all!

“Yeah, you bet this isn’t right at all.” A voice said chidingly, a very familiar voice. With his strength coming back to him slowly, Hajime was able to turn his head to look at the source of the voice.

Only to see himself staring back at him. Standing right next to him now, was himself, or someone that looks like him, though his somewhat faded form seems to indicate he was something else entirely. This Another Hajime was smiling down at him, a smile that radiated confidence and bravery that Hajime himself would be hard pressed to match.

A smile, of the person he was supposed to be.

“Don’t you think it’s time we stop this?” Another Hajime asks him, hands on his hips now. “If you don’t get up now, I’ll really regret it by the time this is over.”

But I’m not sure if I can, Hajime protested in his thoughts, I’m not sure if I can do it.

“What are you talking about, you idiot?” Another Hajime said with a slightly annoyed tone to Hajime’s response which he seems to be able to hear. “That’s not how I roll! Moving forward, don’t care of the consequences, ‘cause I’ll always be able to make something up along the way. That’s how I roll, and that’s how it will always be!”

At that point, and with those words repeating itself inside his head, the lingering feeling at the back of his heart and mind expanded, and the somewhat weakened state he was in gradually diminishes.

And in a flash, a stray memory came up to the forefront of his mind…

Flashback
 
“Mou, Hajime-kun, why do you always do that? You almost had us worry for a sec there.”

“Hehe, sorry, but that’s how I roll, and if I didn’t do something, I feel I’d might regret not doing it later.”


His memories, of life at Hyakuji, of the friends and family he lost, of people and places he would miss, and more importantly, of the two girls that were his loved ones, are back. It came flooding back painfully, with a thousand pictures and sounds having been finally cleared of the dust and all were ready to be read at any time.

But in the end, they were all clear to him. Almost.

Hajime slowly stood back up, struggling and ignoring the still lingering weakness that inflicted him and the fight going on. With every ounce of energy he can muster from himself, Hajime looked up.

“Hotaru! Stop!” Hajime shouted to the Nobody, calling her by the name he now remembered she was supposed to have. If she would turn to look at him now, she would find the expression of radiating confidence and determination in his smiling face, which was Hajime’s familiar form of facial expression.

If anything, it was to show her, and everyone who would know him that he finally remembered.

“Please, you don’t have to do this for us like this.” Hajime continued as he slowly straightens himself up. “Is there really no way for us to end this in another way? I don’t want to hurt you, Hotaru.”

Xaturoh merely smirked as Duo attacked him with his scythe. She was impressed at how he handled his weapon... but she was also as skilled with her own sword, easily parrying each blow with her sword. It helped that the attacks on Kazuna, Katerine and Selene rejuvenated her. The latter two would find themselves drained of life energy from the attack, and would more than likely be brought to their knees unless they found a way to heal themselves quickly.

The one that ended up getting her was Seth's shield bash, a blow which only managed to make her skid backwards from thanks to her armor. Still, that he had managed to time it so that his attack would hit was impressive as it was - maybe these people could actually manage to work together for the final battle against Xenmas.

... Of course, there was, well, Kyonka, who seemed to be forgetting that she had a weapon to use against the Nobodies aside from whatever she was trying to summon. To her credit though, the attack managed to knock off the left arm. Unfortunately for them, they wasted too much time trying to attack the Dark Knight with pitiful ranged attacks instead of giving it the best they could that it was almost time for the summon to be dispelled, and she would be alone in her fight. In retaliation, it dashed forward with its sword in the air, running past China and aiming to send it crashing down Kyonka's head!

Den-O, who had been shoved out of the way thanks to Lavender, managed to do rise to her feet, but she knew that they had to stagger - whatever spells Xaturoh was using, they easily hit them if they stuck together!
"Hotaru! Stop!" Hajime yelled as he staggered to his feet as well. "Please, you don’t have to do this for us like this. Is there really no way for us to end this in another way? I don’t want to hurt you, Hotaru."

Xaturoh actually turned to Hajime as he said that. To those who knew the Nobodies, they would be surprised to see... a tear rolling down her cheek. However... as a Nobody, she could not properly express her sadness, or her happiness, for that matter, at having someone else other than Otoha remember her.
"... Sadly, no. This body of mine, without a heart, cannot feel. It also cannot properly assist you in the coming battle. Nothing of value will be lost if I am destroyed. However... there is value in knowing that I have hardened you enough for the upcoming battle."

The Organization Member Number II clicked something on her sword, allowing her to split it in two and dual wield. However, these two swords were not any less strong for it, nor did it make her less dangerous. In fact, she even pressed something on her waist to release something else!...

"You really don't have any intention of stopping, do you," Den-O said sadly.
"... I'm sorry, but you have to destroy me. There is no other way. CAST OFF."

[CAST OFF|CHANGE DARK LILY]

Eschewing the armor, she was now three times faster and agile than before, and she now had two swords at her disposal! And with two swords... she could use two of her spells twice in succession! She easily rushed Den-O and Hajime, slashing at them with both swords like a whirling dervish that sent at least Den-O sprawling and sparking from the attacks. For some reason, she was only using the flat edge of the sword against Hajime, which wouldn't cut him, but it would still hurt like hell if he wasn't transformed!

"Gh!... She's fast!"
We have to stop her NOW! If everyone can just band together and help coordinate their attacks!...

However, she wasn't done. Both swords glowed with opposing colors of red energy on the right and blue energy on the left as she cast her spell!...
"Dine on the blood of my foes as you cut energy! BLOOD SWORD! NIGHT SWORD!"

The Blood Sword spell was aimed at Seth and Duo who were standing close to each other, while the Night Sword attack was aimed at someone else entirely different - Kyonka! She was going to try and weaken as many people as possible before trying to finish them off!

There were two dangers to actually using King Form, first being the obvious danger of being turned into a Joker Undead due to prolonged combination with their DNA. The second was a more subtle one that Kazuna wasn't full aware of herself...but despite being sealed away the Caucasus had a lingering influence still.

And influence that could either make or break things for Kazuna. For now, the strongest Undead of the spade suit remained dormant, it wouldn't actually start affecting the young rider unless a certain trigger was pulled, so she just charged forth with the King Rouser in hand...!

[AP: 9400]

While it maybe have been sound to try and weaken everyone at once, it left those who were not targeted to take advantage of her momentary distraction. Still, she had to make every second of this form count, she was on a time limit and could not afford to miss...so she decided to not use any other cards, conserve AP until the last second and focus all into one strike...

Either way, while the distance was being closed (King Form was slower than Jack at the very least by dropping the ability to fly), Kazuna instead commanded her keyblades to fly towards Xaturoh, shooting them like a certain remote weapon from a certain mecha series, aiming to at the very least slow her down!

Duo slashed at her, his strikes being parried by her sword. It seemed she hadn't earned her rank for nothing. Seth's attack knocked her away and gave Duo a second to re-evaluate his strategy. He knew he needed to try and get this taken care of. With his wings out of the way, he was faster and more nimble, so he would have to use that to his advantage. He nodded to Seth, acknowledging the help before looking up as Xaturoh yelled out something.

Duo saw the attack rushing towards him and leaped out of the way, rolling across the floor onto his feet. "Looks like she got a bit faster too." Duo muttered, standing back up. "Guess you gotta fight fire with fire." He shifted his suit's extra processing power towards the fine control of the thrusters scattered within it. Once he was ready, the main boosters fired up, and he went hurtling towards the Nobody.

He hacked down at her from the right, flipping the scythe as he slashed to bring the butt forward into a thrust at her middle with the blunt end. He followed through by flipping the scythe around the rest of the way to strike her on the chin with the back of the blade's projector unit. He stopped the upward progress of the scythe with his hand, then gripped the handle and performed a powerful downward cut. All this was down in a flurry of perfectly executed movements. Duo couldn't afford to waste any time on flourishes and fancy tricks at this point.

Seth grinned, moving well out of the way of the oncoming attack. "You really think I'm gonna stand there and get hit by that? I've seen it in action already, I'm not stupid." He did a hat-tipping gesture to Duo, as a thanks for his thanks. He knew that everyone would have to work together to bring this enemy down. She wasn't playing around anymore.

That being the case, Seth ran as quick as he could to close in to Xaturoh. He wanted to time it so that he'd arrive just after Duo's attack so that he could follow up with a flurry of strikes. He wasn't sure if that would even faze her but he knew that the best time to strike was after she had already endured one attack. After all, this wasn't a game, no one got to 'turtle' their way through a series of attacks. "Then again she's ridiculously fast. I might just be rushing into a smack in the face. And possibly a few stabs. That would suck."

He decided not to think about it. If this didn't work, he'd have to try something else. That's the way it always was. "Endgame is here and these are the final moves. Who will claim victory? It's so exciting isn't it?" He spoke with glee. He wasn't sure why, but these last few days had been more and more exciting. Something about getting closer and closer to his ultimate goal made him unable to contain that excitement.

Katerine got on her knee. She felt...sickened. Sickened to the point it took all she can to move away from the fight. She then laid on her back, her armor dissolving in a flash of gold, as she stood there, gasping for air.

"H...help.."

It was selfish of her, after her brave charge at the girl, she hated the fact now she's just going to slow her team down.

        As I turned to run, I saw Mirin Sensei dashed towards the Knight, attempting to grab it from behind to do a suplex.
        I am not sure if Mirin Sensei can do it, but I am just going to run.
        And if the knight catches up with me, maybe I will use this funny key like pole that appeared on my hand for no apparent reasons to block his sword.

Hajime braces himself when he saw that his wish for a peaceful solution to this was disregarded, with Xaturoh charging straight towards him and knocking him away with her sword, eliciting a pained gasp from him as he hit a wall and crumpled onto the cold, stone floor once more.

Why was he still alive after that, Hajime didn’t know, nor did he care. After finally regaining his memories in the heat of battle, he had hoped that things would change, hoping very hard that he wouldn’t have to fight the person he now remembers as his lover.

But she had thrown away his and Otoha’s offer without a doubt. Being turned down like that, it angers him, and from the broken heart that he just realized he had of being turned down, the flames of anger surges forth. He wasn’t angry at her of course, he just couldn’t, but rather, he was angry at the situation that he had gotten himself into, a situation that would probably ends badly for him.

Again, but more stronger this time, Hajime gingerly got up by himself, using the wall behind him for support before pushing himself off it and leaning forward towards the Nobody. “If this is how you want it…” Hajime began, as the Arcle materializes around his waist once more, but sporting a very different design this time. “HENSHIN!” Hajime then shouted the command, and instead of light, he was immediately engulfed in flames from head to toe.

When the flame dissipates, Hajime stood once again as Agito, but in a form that was never seen before. A form borne from his fury at all that is happening to him and Hyakuji as a whole: Agito Burning Form

“…then let me defeat you with my own hands!” Hajime shouted furiously over the din of battle, and with that, he ran forward while his arms were covered in flames, with every intention to punch Xaturoh with a force that even she would think twice to avoid.

Selene cried out in pain as she could feel part of her very life essence being forcibly wrenched from her body to heal Xaturoh. With a gasp, the Briton fell onto her knees. Is this how the story ends? Selene thought as she clawed at the flagstones of the dungeon floor with her fingers, her eyes misting over with tears of sadness and frustration. Try as she might, she could not view the girl she called Hinata, or as she has learned only just now, Hotaru, as Xaturoh.

Selene fought to stand, but her limbs just refused to obey as her body still felt numb from the vampiric effects of the Blood Sword, and the young Briton could only watch helplessly as Hinata - no, Xaturoh made it clear that she would slay every single one of them - even Otoha/Liz and Hajime. And perhaps that was what the Nobody that was once their friend said by hardening them for the battle ahead - to be able to cast aside one's feelings of attachment, to be able to do what is right, regardless of the cost.

Selene's eyes widened as Xaturoh aimed an attack at Kyonka. The Briton gritted her teeth as her hands balled into fists. "Kyonka! NO!" Selene shouted. A sudden surge of adrenaline coursed through the Briton as she forced herself to her feet, her body aglow with a magical aura as she raised her ritual dagger. "I won't stand for this any longer! Prepare yourself!" The Briton's voice resounded with a fusion of sadness and fury as she drew blood from her left hand, the liquid taking on a magenta glow as it left her hand, and where it touched the ground in front of her feet, a glowing spell circle appeared.

A device appeared out of a portal in the center of the circle...

The IWSP Skygrasper! Or rather, a doppelganger of the actual thing, created by the strength of Selene's heart. This was her Drive Form. "Let's do this..." Selene said grimly as she raised the Skygrasper, slapping it onto her old Striker belt, which at least for the duration of her Drive Form, had once again become active.

And in a flash, Strike Pink was reborn! Selene raised her Striker Pack's weapon - a shield-mounted beam gatling gun, while resummoning her Keyblade in her free hand. "Valkyrie! Go help Kyonka!" Selene relayed her order to her summoned Valkyrie, who nodded tersely before bounding on fleet-footed strides towards the Dark Knight that Kyonka and Hong Meiling were still battling, jumping towards the Nobody in an attempt to perform an overhead chop from above.

Engaging her Strike Armor's thrusters, Selene barreled towards Xaturoh, beam gatling gun blazing as she approached behind a blistering barrage of beams!

Kyonka apparently didn't notice that she was being attacked by Xaturoh from mid-range, so she was ravaged by the Night Sword's attack. All things considered, she would probably not have any magical energy left from the blow to attack back, at least not for a while, not to mention that it probably hurt like hell. Thankfully for her, she wouldn't have to worry about the Dark Knight Nobody, as it was destroyed by the combined assault of Meiling and the Valkyrie's attacks.

Duo was good. Xaturoh had to give him that much. There was just one inherent problem with scythes - they used a very large hilt. Sure, there was a large arc and reach, but against someone who knew what they were doing, all they would need to do was step inside the arc to stop the blows, which was exactly what Xaturoh did after dodging the first couple of slashes. She merely stepped inside the arc and locked the pole against her sword guard. She then shoved Duo back towards the charging Seph and into the way of his attacks.

Their combined attacks were probably what they needed though, as it left her barely able to dodge Selene's beam gatling shots and parry Kazuna's Keyblades, leaving her open to Hajime's punch which slammed into the sparse chest armor that she wore.
"Yes, Hajime. That is exactly what you must-"

WHACK.

Xaturoh was suddenly hit in the same spot by Den-O's Rider Kick, sending her screeching back from the impact!
"YOU IDIOT! Do you really lament your own existence that you'd want to just die like this!?" Den-O yelled.
Xaturoh merely chuckled. "I don't lament it. I just know what will happen if I try to give it my all and fight. I mean... there's nothing to give with."

She staggered to her feet and brought both swords out to the sides. She was now charging them with a powerful surge of energy, one that was neither Light nor Dark, but simply... nothing.
"Nothing comes from nothing, and everything shall fall to nothing. SWORD OF PROMISED CORRUPTION!"

The two swords were now swirling with Nothingness energy as she sent the giant blades cutting across the prison sideways and overhead, tearing through the building like a powerful tornado! The slashes themselves would cut through the very foundations of the prison complex, sending everything crashing around them if they managed to avoid the blades!

Den-O, however, wasn't fazed.
"Hajime-kun! Let's go!" she yelled as she swiped the pass in front of her belt before jumping out of the way!
[CHARGE AND UP]

They needed to do something about Xaturoh, and now!

Kazuna's Keyblades returned to her after they were parried, merely floating at each of her sides and awaiting the next command...which was simply to be dispelled. They weren't needed for what was coming after all, because now they were faced with a very large tornado made of corrupted energies, threatening to tear through whoever got in the way of the two blades unless everyone got out of their way!

Of course, Kazuna wasn't going to do so. This was the perfect time to unleash her trump card, she only had one shot, with this it would be all or nothing! With the giant blades threatening to cut her in two, Kazuna called out for her cards, five specific ones: the members of the royals. The cards for the King, Queen, Jack, Ace and the Ten shot out from the emblems that adorned her armor, bearing a new golden appearance rather than the normal dull brown the cards normally had.

BGM: Take it a Try

Without hesitation, Kazuna sent the cards inside the King Rouzer's slot, sliding each in one at a time while the attack drew closer...

[SPADE TEN]

[SPADE JACK]

[SPADE QUEEN]

[SPADE KING]

[SPADE ACE]

[ROYAL STRAIGHT FLASH]

Kazuna's broadsword began glowing gold...and she even focused the power of light she had into it for extra measure. She mustered up everything she had, it was time to end it all! While she got into her ready stance, the images of the cards she roused projected themselves before her one by one in the order she put them in, and without missing a beat Kazuna made a powerful slash, sending a beam of light and the power of the Rouzer through each card...

And right at Xaturoh! Kazuna would counter with her own powerful sword wave with her own. It was a clash of two powers!

As soon as he saw Duo get shoved into his path, Seth stopped swinging. Still, even though he stopped flailing his sword about didn't mean that he could stop charging. He was unable to stop and thus plowed right into him. "Gah. My bad kid." He got up as quickly as possible only to see Xaturoh make some kind of energy slash. "Oh boy. Not good." Seth quickly ran as far away as he could from the attack, trying to avoid debris created by it as well.

Once he felt he got far enough away he turned around and ran right back towards Xaturoh. "Enough is enough!" He put all his strength into a slash that would crack the ground if it didn't hit his target. He would follow up with a shoulder charge. "Eat this!"

He had attacked without so much as a thought for defense. He hoped that someone else would seize the opportunity and blast her with everything they had. He could heal, and as far as he knew, she couldn't.

Duo slid backwards, his feet digging into the stone floor as Seth collided with him from behind. He started to lean forward, but caught himself with his scythe handle. "Don't worry about it." He replied to Seth, getting his feet back under him. He looked up as the swirling vortex of energy was unleashed on the fighters, tearing apart the prison that was there battleground. It seemed she had no qualms about reducing the place to rubble, which was going to be trouble for everyone.

As the attack passed him, he jumped back, but not before the torrent of energy fried the head of his scythe. The blade sparked and sputtered before shutting off. Duo gazed at his weapon for a moment, The folded it back up at his waist. "Ok, now I'm pissed off!" It seemed that he was very attached to his weapon, and was less than pleased to see it taken out like that. Duo was done playing nice.

A moment later his wings had emerged again, as he flew up to the ceiling of the prison, a good distance from Xaturoh. He drew out his Keyblades, Death's Judgement and Death's Fang. Once that was done, he activated his drive form. Duo felt the power pouring into him, and by extension, his suit. He charged up every booster he had on the suit, until they were at full capacity. His suit shook with the pent up energy, until at last he launched himself at Xaturoh at supersonic speed. The wall behind him cracked from his launch, a massive sonic boom echoing through prison.

He hurled himself towards Xaturoh, reaching her just as she would be trying to dodge Seth's attack. He would hit her at an angle that would drive her into the opposite wall, his keyblades ready to pierce right through her. "Look who's back!" He shouted enthusiastically. Even if he missed, his drive form would take the brunt of the impact enough that he would still be able to fight once he shook off the shock of the impact.
