Anim - Heartless

 “So the Akuma disappeared.” Hiroko said. “Why?” Yusuke asked, before getting hit by the Beast. “I don’t have a clue.” Hiroko said. Hiroko created a giant hammer, and used it to slam into the Beast, pinning it. “Nice.” Yusuke said, before sitting up. “So do we keep yelling?” Hiroko asked. “Until Ramon comes back. Yeah.” Yusuke said. “Hey, Ramon, come back! If this is about what I said on the island I’m sorry!” Hiroko yelled out. “What did you say?” Yusuke asked. “Not telling.” Hiroko said. Someone landed on top of the hammer, getting Yusuke, and Hiroko’s attention. “I ask you both to stop toying with its head. It’s a monster. Its only purpose is destruction.” Nakijin said. “Yeah no.” Yusuke said, appearing behind Nakijin, swinging his lightning blade. “You do that a lot.” Nakijin said getting slashed. Nakijin grabbed Yusuke by the head and slammed Yusuke into the hammer. The Beast picked the hammer, and threw it off of him. Nakijin jumped onto a building, while Yusuke flew into the ground. Hiroko caught the hammer, and turned it into a Jian, charging at the Beast. She sensed Mabui coming at her. She looked seeing blades of blue flames coming at her. She parried the blades, and threw out a slash of pure Mabui at Nakijin, he destroyed it with his hand. The Beast ran past Hiroko, grabbing her head, and slamming her into the ground. It ran off to Yusuke. Yusuke got up, dodged the Beast attack, and shot lightning into the Beast’s eye, before running to Hiroko. “I don’t think we can keep doing this. We could barely fight Ramon, now we have to deal with an Akuma.” Yusuke said. “Let’s kill an Akuma.” Hiroko said. “How are we going to keep Ramon off of us?” Yusuke asked. Hiroko noticed the Beast about to land on them, and she quickly kicked Yusuke out of the way, and dodged. Nakijin grabbed Yusuke by the hair. “I am just going to take this. I’m losing from stupidity like last time.” Nakijin said, before stabbing his claws into Yusuke’s gut. A Hidori Gomon symbol appeared on Yusuke’s stomach. Yusuke screamed out in pain. Hiroko ran past the Beast swinging the Jian at Nakijin. Before her attack could hit she was thrown into the ground. Nakijin pulled out the symbol, and held it in his hand, dropping Yusuke to the ground. Yusuke held his stomach, trying to stop the bleeding. “Yusuke!” Hiroko called out. “Alive!” Yusuke said. “Yeah, Beast kill them.” Nakijin said before disappearing.

“Sir, why are you here?” Sato asked Noboru. “The climax-.” Noboru started. “Don’t say that.” Riku said, cutting off Noboru. “Child. This is the end. When a new dawn will come. The creation of a new world, a better world. One that is equal.” Noboru said. “This is another genocide isn’t it?” Sato asked. “Doesn’t matter what it is. This is the future.” Noboru said. “It definitely matters.” Riku said. “Sato, prove me wrong. Kill him.” Noboru said. “Wind Style : Fujin’s Armour.” Riku said, being covered in crystalized wind Majutsu. “Come at me yourself.” Riku said. “Star Majutsu : First Light.” Sato said, raising her hand to the sky. A star appeared in the sky, bursting through the clouds.

“What is that?” Hiroko asked, looking at the star. “Well it could be anything. Personally, I hope it’s divine intervention.” Yusuke said. The Beast looked at the star, and roared, before jumping at it. “Why?” Yusuke asked. “I’m pretty sure that thing can burn him to a crisp.” Hiroko said, standing up. “I’m on it.” Yusuke said, turning into lighting, and shooting up a building, grabbing the Beast, and punching it back to the ground. Yusuke noticed Riku, Sato, and Noboru. “So that’s what this is.” Yusuke said, descending. Yusuke landed on the ground. “Hey, that's a star.” Yusuke said. “A star? Why?” Hiroko asked. The Beast slapped Yusuke into a building and jumped at the star again. “Let’s hope this works.” Hiroko said, creating a rope of pure Mabui, and tossed it at the Beast, catching its hand, and pulling him down.

Riku rushed after Noboru, getting hit off the building by an invisible attack. Sato confined the power of the star, and shot a ray at Noboru. Noboru blocked it with an invisible wall, absorbing the power of the attack. The star disappeared. Noboru shot out an attack at Sato, who stood and let the attack hit her. She healed from the attack, but was kicked off the building by Noboru. Sato landed on the ground, next to Riku. “Why are you still down here?” Sato asked, standing up. “Figuring out a plan.” Riku answered. “Oh, I thought you were cowering.” Noboru said, his voice coming from behind. Riku and Sato turned around to see Noboru behind them. “Well we are screwed.” Sato said. In an instant Sato and Riku were thrown into the building, slamming through glass, and concrete. “Sorry for the building.” Riku said, standing up. “Riku, we should give up and let him kill us. We do not stand a chance.” Sato said. “That’s a lie. We can win. We just need numbers.” Riku said. “Where are we going to get numbers?” Sato asked. Riku looked at Sato. “How do you know he is alive? How do you know he is still there? Or if he is in trouble or not? Your plan is to come in unannounced and hope he gives us enough strength to turn the tide. Despite the fact that he will be a liability because of how weak he is?” Sato asked. “Yeah.” Riku said. “Who are you talking about?” Noboru asked. “Your mother.” Riku said. “Seriously? Why would you say that?” Sato asked. “Give me one reason why not?” Riku asked. Noboru walked in front of them. “Goodbye.” Riku. Sato created a star, and slammed it into Noboru, tossing him through the building. “Ok, let's go.” Riku said, grabbing Sato’s hand and running away. “Cowards.” Noboru said, standing up, not damaged at all from the attack.

The Beast stared at the sky, seeing the start disappear. The Beast stopped moving, black Mabui started to come off the Beast, dissipating. Hiroko, and Yusuke noticed. “Ramon, are you ok?” Hiroko asked. The Beast said nothing, only stared at the sky, as the black Mabui disappeared leaving only Ramon, who sighed. “Forgive me. It seems I’m still trying to take the easy way out. But I’m fighting that habit.” Ramon said, as tears fell from his eyes, he smiled and looked at Hiroko and Yusuke. “Hey bud. You beat the crap out of me.” Yusuke said. “I see.” Ramon said.

Riku landed on the ground in between Ramon and Yusuke, bringing Sato with him. “Hi, Yusuke problem.” Riku said. “More than one.” Yusuke said. Riku noticed the several places where Yusuke was bleeding from. “I’d ask what happened, but we have bigger problems.” Riku said, turning his attention behind him. Seeing Noboru standing, staring at them. “So this was your plan involve these children? And you call me a monster.” Noboru said. “You are one, but still. It’s us against you.” Riku said. “And they are injured. What are three injured children going to do?” Riku asked. Yusuke stood up fully and walked in front of Riku “We are going to beat the crap out of you.

Nakijin made it to the Spirit World, still holding the curse in his hand. However the Spirit World was different from the physical one. The curse ended up fading, returning to Mabui, and into the world around them. Nakijin sighed, before walking off.
