4 - 2

There was little left of the city as the Enigma had done, all for the purpose of reaching Zukafu and seeing that he was approaching them, they laid themselves down, as if wanting to speak to the boy.

Zukafu stood face to face with the monster, his body fuelled by electricity as it ran through his veins to his finger tips, as he was ready to eliminate the Enigma once and for all.

"Tempest." Said the Enigma. It appeared that it decided to learn itself the way that humans spoke, which many documented Enigma's choose not to do. "You are a god amongst us all... I offer you the chance to come and return to us."

Not wanting to chat with the Enigma, Zukafu readied himself as he was about to attack.

The Enigma then commented "Know that this PLANET has poisoned you... Even if you kill me, there will be others that will show you the truth... Then your eyes will see what we truly are."

For a brief moment, Zukafu strangely hesistated from what the Enigma was saying but he thought to himself on why he was even doing so.

But he snapped out of his deep thought and begun his attack. The Enigma roared and did the same as it used its eight heads to charge.

Zukafu used his abilities of lightning to send statics of lightning into the snakes mind though all it had done was cause their minds to act temporarily wild as each head moved in a random direction, similarly to that of how muscles reflex occurs.

Zukafu then lept up and lifted his hand to the sky as he shouted "RAI DAN!" Before he brought his hand down, from the sky, thunder came down as it landed onto the Enigma, causing it to roar violently.

The Enigma, infuriated, screamed "ENOUGH!"

It's eight heads began to tear itself from the Enigma's body where each of them grew their own bodies that appeared humans but also appearing incomplete or melted in some parts.

The body from where the heads detached from began to change its shape back into a snake. "She will welcome you back boy!" Said the spider, "Mark her words!"

The spider then spat out what resembled a human bone before it opened a portal and fled.

Now left with the eight seperated snake headed Enigma's, Zukafu went in for the attack, dealing blow after blow with every lightning bolt and thunder strike.

FEW MINUTES BEFORE

In the bunker, the students, the teachers, Charao, Yuno and Mary watched as Zukafu walked away from the school.

Soon after, the student that lodged the crystal into Zukafu's heart broke free from the teachers hold and immediately fled the school and despite this, the headmaster informed the teachers chasing after him to return as they were returning back down underground to which the teachers reluctantly did.

After the 'student' had fled far away from the school. He stopped at a shed where he caught his breath. His mobile device began to go off to which he answered it.

The voice on the phone asked "You've done it. He has regained them."

The 'student' spoke saying "I did what you asked..." he paused as he seemed frightened to speak, as if he didn't want to tell the voice on the phone something but despite this, he continued, "I-I-I lodged the crystal into his chest! And- I-I did it... Maybe a little early!"

The voice on the phone answered "hmmm... I see!"

The 'student' then shrieked in mercy saying "Please forgive me! I know you told me to take my time and do it but I freaked out and there were-"

The voice then told him to shush as he said, "You've done superbly. And... I lied. You could have thrown that crystal at him and it still would have transmitted the powers back into him."

The 'student' sighed with relief as he was glad that he wasn't going to be punished or scolded.

"Now Mobile..." The voice on the phone said, sending something to Mobile's phone. "Phase one of the plan is complete. Now for phase two."

"Phase two?" Said Mobile, sounding anxious.

In a room filled with old looking TV's, the voice on the phone speaks to Mobile on a nostalgic-looking phone.

The room was filled with pictures of Zukafu from both his youth and current and also pictures of a woman that resembled the person from Zukafu's photo back in the house and also a picture of a man with crude drawings and a giant painted red X.

"The boy sees you as an enemy." Said the voice "And this is where we must go with our alternative strategy before returning to the actual one. You understand what I am saying?"

Mobile, timidly, answers "Y-yes! I think so..."

"Good... Get some rest Mobile, we'll talk later." The voice said before hanging up. From the TV's, this ominous figure watched as Zukafu battled against the snake headed Enigma's. "Soon Zukafu, soon enough..." said the ominous figure as he watched the battle ensue.

BACK IN THE BUNKER

Mary sat by the corner by herself, her eyes deep in thought like she always does but her expression felt depressing and this made Yuno worry about her.

Mary looked back to when she witnessed Zukafu on the ground appearing lifeless then suddenly began remembering seeing someone in that same state as a young child and seeing a boy who didn't express any emotions on his face look down on the corpse.

Mary overheard some students talking about what happened regarding the scene with Zukafu and they expressed shock about how the third child of the Kami family had been attending their school and they didn't know.

They then talked about Mary, curious about what her relationship is like Zukafu.

Then suddenly, Yuno shouted at the two saying "Hey!" Which caught theirs as well as the other students, "You've got something to say about Mary, do ya?"

They fell silent, intimidated by Yuno. They answered how they were just curious and weren't saying anything bad about her.

Yuno threatened them saying, "Hey! You dare talk about my friend, I'll sew your lips shut you'll need to speak via sign language, you hear me?"

They understood and turned around, quivering to themselves while embarassed. The students, not wanting to deal with Yuno, also kept their heads down.

Yuno went up to Mary and sat beside her asking, "You okay girl?"

Mary then responded "You didn't have to do that Yuno but... Thanks."

Yuno smiled and answered, "I'd do anything for my best friend." Curious, she asked "Hey, I know its none of my business but... Whats up with you and Zukafu?"

Mary knew that she couldn't hide anything from her friends and therefore, she sighed and answered, "Its complicated really."

"Try me." Said Yuno.

Mary then explained the events that had happened previously, prior to the group first meeting Zukafu. Then, Charao and their other friends gathered, curious to know as well.

Mary continued explaining the story until she reached the end where she said, "And really... I did all that because I wanted to know him more... It was like there was more about that I wanted to know and..."

Mary appeared to be struggling to reveal her true intentions but despite this, she continued, confessing "He reminded me of someone that I had forgotten years ago!"

Yuno along with Charao and her friends looked at each other, appearing puzzled by what Mary meant.
