Chapter 57:

Chapter 56: A United Alliance!

Project: INFERNO


(A week has went by as Sawano and the others was warned about the escaped hunter, Cerrzar from the government's facility. Kazuya and the others was focusing in the academy but in the dorm room, Kazuya was studying for an upcoming test he did not have time to study for due to their businesses.)
"Kazuya: UGH...!!!! DAMN ITTTT!!! HOW DID WE GO THIS FAR BEHIND CLASS?! Now we're gonna fail and be held back..."
"Shibuto: Kazuya, we've been excused of the test. Before Gaito stepped down, he placed us on leave of absence until we're able to come back. For now, we're just visitors of the academy but we're still students."
"Kazuya: Oh... Then who's test even is this..?"
"Shibuto: Beats me, I'm just glad we can finally relax after all the fighting lately."
"Kazuya: Well, we just got to stay on alert like Choryrth said."
"Shibuto: You're right. Where's Hinami?"
"Kazuya: She said she had to talk to Sawano, daughter to father. Something's been bothering her lately but I don't know what."
"Shibuto: Whatever it is, I know she's going to be okay."
(Meanwhile, Hinami and Sawano was talking in the back of the academy around the school's field. She was asking him several questions about the Order of Encursed Elements.)

"Sawano: Well, Kirby and Radella was quite strong back then. But my beast, Zugarian lent me enough strength to win against them. Without Gaito and the others, I would've died."
"Hinami: I see... Also, um.. Father. What about this 'Hellcat' girl I found?"
"Sawano: She... She was strong to defeat multiple twelve stars back then. She nearly laid a fatal scratch on me. Lets just say Hellcat was a strong force. Anything else?"
"Hinami: No.. I think that's all."
(She was disappointed as Sawano then patted her head.)
"Sawano: Its okay."
(Hinami than gasped and jumped up, remembering what she was going to ask.)

"Hinami: I remember! Father, Kazuya once told me that I worry about him too much... Is that wrong of me..?"
"Sawano: Hinami, it's normal for anyone to be worried for anyone. I was worried for everyone not just on this planet, but the entire dimension too. Someday, I wish I could go back home and take you and your mother to see where I truly came from..."
"Hinami: One day, father... that dream will come true.."
(Sawano's head was then patted by Hinami with a smile which Sawano then got up and smiled back at her.)

"Sawano: Thank you Hinami."
(They both started to walk back but Hinami then stopped and thought of another question.)
"Hinami: Uh... F-Father..?"
"Sawano: Hm? Yeah Hinami?"
"Hinami: I have one last question.... Did you erase someone's memories..?"
(Sawano then slightly jumped as he heard the question and felt a bit nervous.)
"Sawano: What makes you ask something like that?"
"Hinami: Well.. something's been off about Kazuya and he can't remember you like he used too. So, I wondered if memory erase was the thing used.."
(He sighed then turned around.)
"Sawano: Listen.. Its time I tell you the truth, Hinami. But you have to promise NOT to tell Kazuya or Shibuto until the time comes, okay...?"
"Hinami: Of course.."

(Sawano then leaned into Hinami's ear and told her everything about Kazuya's memories. Meanwhile on Earth, a massive group of enemy assassin, fugitives, hitman and several villains all was meeting in an abandoned hall of the Order's hideout in which one stomp was heard and everyone focused on Freeze who walked out of the darkness, giving everyone watching him a cold-eyed stare.)

"Freeze: Tch."
(A mere moment later, Freedom Knight, Sybille Schmidt, Trample Horn and several others walked in which surprised the criminal underworld.)
"Criminal #1: WHOA WAIT, AREN'T THOSE GUYS SYMBOLS OF THEIR OWN COUNTRIES?!"
"Criminal #2: That's Trample Horn of Russia..! The Russian Slaughterer!"
"Criminal #1: The Blood Queen, Sybille Schmidt...?"
"Criminal #3: Freeze from the Encursed Elements?"
"Freeze: As you all know, we all gathered you here for many reasons. But..."
"Trample Horn: Its safe to say, we invited you criminal nobodies here for alliance deal."
(They all chuckled with murmurs as the criminals didn't believe them.)
"Hitman: Alliance deal?! With you people? No way!"
"Sybille: You humans don't have to believe us. But..."

(She'd look at every last criminal here with a bloodthirsty look on her face and a devilish smirk.)
"At least stay and hear us out... otherwise, I might have to cut my dinner a bit early.."
(Sybille then licked her lips in satisfaction as they all understood the threat and stayed.)
"???: Hold it... Where is the female named Angel..?"
"Freeze: Huh? Who wants to know?"
"???: Just an individual who despises her."
"Freedom Knight: Due to unfortunate circumstances, Angel died by the hands of two Divine Gods as of late in Japan."
"???: Such a shame.. I was looking forward to killing her too. Guess I'm leaving."
"Trample Horn: You came, you stay! That is rule, disobey rule and I snap your bones!"
"???: Says the big bad rhino... Except he's not so big... down there of course."
(Stifled laughter came from everyone which Trample Horn roared then jumped in front of the individual who did not flinch.)

"Trample Horn: I'LL KILL YOU!"
(He'd throw a right punch at the female and didn't let go as she kept a full tight grip on his fist.)
"WHAT IN THE HELL?"
"Sybille: Oh??"
"Freeze: Hm..?"
(She scoffed in disappointment.)
"???: You know, I thought you was strong. You've snapped that girl Isabel's back in the tournament and caused a bunch of chaos back in Russia... I don't see Trample Horn the Russian Slaughterer... I see Trample Horn, THE WIMP!"
(He roared more and struck another punch which she grabbed and held a very powerful grip in both hands which surprised Trample Horn.)
"Also... one more piece of advice."
(She'd judo flip him to the ground and quickly snapped his entire left arm out its socket, the pop echoing with Trample Horn's cries of pain.)
"Don't come across anyone if you rely on nothing but brute strength, wuss."
(Freeze, Sybille and Freedom Knight clapped for her as the criminals was chuckling.)
"Freeze: Would you mind if I asked your name, miss?"
"Hayazawa: Its Hayazawa Runo, good to finally meet you Freeze. I thought the rumors was all a lie. It turns out you was alive after all..."
"Freeze: You've heard of me?"
"Hayazawa: Hasn't everybody? I'll cut to the chase, I'm here for two things."
(She hopped on the stage and looked at Freeze in the face.)

"One, I want to fight in this "alliance" as you call it and two."
(She pulled Freeze by the hair and kissed him deeply, everyone in shock as the criminals watched and cheered Hayazawa on. She then stopped kissing him and wiped saliva off her lip.)
"Two, because you're my f**king hero. Enjoy that kiss, because its the only one for now."
(She then walked off the stage and walked out without hesitation and kicked the doors open then left the hall, Freeze completely in shock to what just happened.)
"Sybille: Since that's over... What's going on here is a united alliance to take Japan down and out! There so-called 'fighters' doesn't deserve any praise! Hundreds- No, MILLIONS HAS LOST THEIR LIVES THROUGHOUT EVERY DISASTEROUS EVENT JAPAN HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN! GAITO TAMAREI IS THE BLAME!"
(The criminals yelled in agreement.)
"WE SHALL STORM TOKYO, RUN THEIR PRIME MINISTER OUT OF OFFICE AND PROVE TO ALL THAT HE IS THE DEVIL AND WE ARE JAPAN'S SAVIORS!"
(They all began to roar with excitement as Sybille smirked with joy. Back in Olympus, Kazuya was walking down the halls as he then went into his locker but the door was slammed in his face by Tajunn from before.)

"Kazuya: Oh.. its you."
"Tajunn: What was you tryna get out of there? Go ahead, get it!"
(Kazuya opened the locker again as Tajunn slammed it shut again, Kazuya continued opening it as Tajunn kept slamming it shut.)
"What's wrong?? Why can't you get it?!"
"Kazuya: Maybe because you're in my way, move it."
(He opened the locker again but Tajunn once again slams it.)
"Tajunn: Make me."
(Kazuya was then shoved by him as Tajunn continued to try and anger him.)
"Not gonna fight me wuss? Proof you're nothing but a damn coward! Cocky and challenging?? More like cowardly and fearful!"
"Kazuya: As if I'm going to waste my time on some dipshit like you, get lost!"
(He grabbed his book out the locker and closed it then walked away as Tajunn laughed.)
"Tajunn: WALKING AWAY LIKE A COWARD SHOULD!"
(Kazuya then went back to the dormitories but heard crying on a stairwell, he looked around and saw a badly bruised girl holding her arm which he walked to her as she was scared and backed into the wall in fear.)
"Kazuya: Wait! I'm not going to hurt you... Are you okay?"

(She shook her head saying no as Kazuya then looked at her bruises and sparked lightning to heal her but she was even more scared as she looked away. Kazuya then created a blue light from his lightning which was cleansing her bruises. She then turned around and saw him healing her. A few seconds later, the bruises was gone as Kazuya then got up and offered her a hand back up.)

"Need a hand?"
(She then hesitated and was scared as she took his hand and stood back up.)
"???: Um.. t-thank you.."
"Kazuya: What happened to you?"
"???: Well.. I... I-um.. was attacked..."
"Kazuya: By who?!"
(She was more scared to say the name but looked at Kazuya and told him.)
"???: I was attacked by some crew here on campus... They took my belongings and started to fight me after trying to get it back..."
"Kazuya: Did they do anything else to you?"
"???: They... They.."
(She cried as Kazuya then noticed another bruise around her neck which angered him.)
"Kazuya: Forget I asked. Where can I find this crew?"
(Kazuya looked with seriousness in his eyes as she then leaded him to one of the dormitories which a group of rebel Demi-Gods was talking with one another until once recognized the girl with Kazuya.)
"Rebel: Well well well, look who's back for her things!"
(She was scared as she hid behind Kazuya.)

"Kazuya: I believe you punks have something that belongs to this girl."
"Rebel: Ohhh? So what if we do?! What are you going to do about it?? You going to stick up for her? Don't forget, she's nothing but a wh-"
(Kazuya instantly appeared in front of the rebel and gripped his mouth, lightning surging in his eyes with fury.)
"Kazuya: Before you even think about finishing that sentence... It would be wise of you to choose your words carefully to avoid being a burnt vegetable..."
(The leading rebel of the Demi-gods stepped up to Kazuya after he shoved one of the rebels to the ground. Kazuya delivering a cold stare at him.)
"Igani: I don't know who the hell you think you are... But you might wanna get the hell out of here and YOU, GIRLY!"
(She jumped with fear.)
"How's the bruise around your neck? It fits a disgusting nobody like you."
(Kazuya clenched his fist tightly as he tried not to resort to violence but looked at her crying at what they did to her. Then Kazuya turned around and was splashed in the face with water. The rebels oohing at Igani but they'd all sense Kazuya's power climbing to a dangerous height.)

"Kazuya: I see how you want to take this..."
(He looked at the girl and got her attention.)
"Hey."
"??: Huh..?!"
"Kazuya: Get as far away from here as you can. I'm about to start a cookout..."
(A few minutes later, Hinami and Shibuto walked out of the classroom as they was wrapping up school for today and was talking on the way out.)
"Hinami: So do you know where Kazuya is?"
"Shibuto: Beats me, I haven't seen him throughout class."
"Hinami: He's probably training or something-"
(Shibuto then sensed Kazuya's power which a strong explosion released a shockwave towards them. Hinami and Shibuto quickly went to Kazuya's location to find out what happened. The debris clears out as Igani was down on the ground in absolute fear at Kazuya holding one of his burnt rebel friends.)
"Kazuya: Oops... I guess I went overdone on them... Now, for you.."
"Both: KAZUYA DON'T!!!!"

(Igani then screamed in complete agonizing pain as Kazuya was then shocking him with countless volts of lightning and scared both Shibuto and Hinami into thinking he'd kill him. Seconds later, Kazuya then stopped as he fell to the ground completely unconscious but bleeding from the nose and mouth. He then turned around to see Hinami and Shibuto terrified at what he did to Igani.)

"Kazuya: What...?"
"Shibuto: D-Did.. you just... kill him..?"
"Kazuya: No. Probably... Look, if I did, I don't care."
"Hinami: YOU DON'T- Kazuya! This can get you expelled!!!"
"Kazuya: Its worth it! He abused that poor girl and she sat there bruised on the stairway. I had to do what I had to do and teach these assholes a lesson."
(She walked out from behind a tree but they noticed the whole charred area being healed around them.)
"Hinami: This is her..?"
"Shibuto: Wait...! Correct me if I'm wrong... but aren't you one of Hera's top disciples?"
"???: Y-Yes...!"
"Kazuya: I'm confused, what?"
"Shibuto: Kazuya, this isn't no ordinary girl... This is Sugizora Tokiyomi, Hera's top disciple!"
"Kazuya: WAIT WHAT?!"
"Sugizora: Um.. y-yeah... I'm always assumed of being a teacher's pet in the academy... but its fine, its okay with me. I don't really care what happens to me even if I'm insulted..."
"Kazuya: That's not okay!"
(She gasped and looked at him.)

"Letting yourself become prey for anyone else is a problem! I know how that was but now things are different! Miss Tokiyomi, you have to stand up for yourself because if you continue to give yourself to others, you could end up dead!"
(Sugizora paused and sheds more tears at what he said.)
"Shibuto: K-Kazuya.. I don't think you should've said that.."
"Sugizora: No... He's right.. I've dealt with this for too long... I'm not a fighter, I've never even been in a fight.... But I can't give myself to anyone! I promise you, I will make myself strong!"
(She wiped the tears away and smiled at Kazuya as he smiled back. Back on Earth, Cerrzar was dragging another body into the pile of deceased and dismembered bodies from his hunting but then sensed a presence which he fired an energy type of ray at the source but struck down several trees into a lake.)
"???: Settle down, Cerrzar."
(He growled but was speaking in his own language.)
"I seek no harm. I came to grant you an offer."
(Cerrzar screeched with curiosity and switched his translator to Japanese.)
"Cerrzar: Speak... your motive for tracking me..."
"???: I plan on bringing you to a better location. Join us in our United Government, Cerrzar.."
"Cerrzar: Why should I join your FILTHY organization..?"
"Demon: You'd be given permission to hunt all you want, legally..."
(He walked towards the unknown demon-like humanoid and put out his hand.)
"Cerrzar: Your word..."
"???: My word, I swear it."
(They'd both shake hands in agreement to the deal.)
