Ever so calm and confident, the Chinese woman who held the title of number 1 among the shiniest stars crossed her arms as she retreated her bladed whip, turning into a small sword, all while she watched her opponent's every move.
The only one capable of matching her exceptional power, a girl of beanie hat and red eyes laid her slightly large suitcase on the floor and pressed a button right in the middle where the grip was and with a classic "click" sound, it opened in Xia's direction, blocking her view for a brief moment.
She would immediately see however, what that case store.
Gold and silver, a pair of dual machete like blades that Jasmine held and lifted with eerie calm, her red eyes not a second off her opponents one's of that same color as she then took her stance, holding the golden one with the right at the back and the silver one at the front with the left hand.
Taking that brief moment while she revealed her weapons, the bow headband girl took a couple of deep breaths, trying to not only process but accept the fact she had just seen someone's life end before her very eyes.
Jasmine had already warned her though and when she accepted the risk of joining her girlfriend's crusade, the idea of someone maybe getting seriously hurt or even killed was something that had been made known to her.
As Jasmine took her stance, pure focus on those red orbs, Kanae's doubts had already been put aside. She calmly slid her hand inside her gi, set to join her lover's fight now.
"Don't", but Jasmine's earnest and almost cold tone made her stop her every move, like a teacher calling her last name after being caught using the phone during class. "E-Eh?", Kanae replied confused.
"This isn't a fist fight anymore. One wrong move here and you're as good as done, besides, yours are not suitable against a blade hers or any other... I'm sorry Kanae, Noroe, but I just love you too much to let you take this risk", Jasmine finished, her stoic expression didn't seem to change but the way her eyes softened as she spoke that last sentence, let Kanae know all that needed to be known.
"A-Alright...", Kanae replied with a whole heartedly honest but at the same time, somewhat pained smile. "Thank you", Jasmine smiled back and finally was fully ready to start.
Jasmine went in for the offensive as she ran at the buff woman who with a simple wielding of her short sword, made it expand and turn into that bladed whip again, reaching and aiming to wrap around Jasmine's neck when she was barely halfway through.
The beanie hat girl of course wouldn't be that easy to catch as she dodged the whip, getting down and letting it cut the air above her head. She then used the momentum to follow with a low spin to reach her opponent faster and slash her legs.
But Xia's sword blocked both her blades, deviating them one after the other as it had contracted again already, allowing Jasmine to know it's contraction and expansion speed and take it into consideration for the rest of the fight.
After Xia deviated her blades, letting Jasmine's left flank open for a brief second, she went for a diagonal descending slash which Jasmine blocked quickly as she pulled back her silver blade.
Xia retreated her sword quickly and jumped backwards to create enough distance to efficiently expand her whip again as soon as she landed, this time going for a large stab, like a snake aiming to bite a careless explorer in the nature.
The beanie hat girl stepped aside easily, letting pass which got Xia to immediately contract her blade, however, this time it only did midway through to then expand again and try to stab Jasmine again, surprising her a little.
Without even using her blades, Jasmine then easily dodged a series of expended stabbing strikes, like a snake continuously trying to bite her, quickly retreating and attacking again.
Little by little she kept moving to her left until the range of attack Xia had was enough for her whip to rip some of the black clothes and cardboard on the windows with her continuous attacks, letting a good amount of light enter the hallway.
"Good!", Jasmine thought, she was now able to see better and calculate Xia's range of attack, estimating it around 15 feet. "Ha!", Jasmine shouted as she dodged and at the same time boosted herself forward, raising her golden blade to attack.
Xia contracted her sword and aimed for another stab but Jasmine used her silver machete to block it, trying to deviate it at first which worked the Chinese woman to wrap her bladed whip around her blade to stop her.
"Got you~", Xia said and swung her whip to her left, aiming to smash Jasmine onto the wall as she refused to let go of her silver blade. Jasmine however, had been waiting for this opportunity, quickly adjusting herself in the air to kick the wall with both feet, boosting herself back and like a pinball machine, launch herself onto one of the windows blocked by wood and then onto Xia with a shooting stab.
Xia wouldn't be that naive either. She quickly contracted her blade to unwrap it from Jasmine's blade and block her attack. "Ha!", Jasmine shouted as she used her silver blade to follow up with a vertical descending slash which Xia blocked too.
An horizontal slash with the golden blade, a follow up with the silver one, roundhouse kick to create an opening and a double hammer slash, one after the other Xia successfully blocked and dodged the attacks but just couldn't counter yet.
Jasmine found a weakness, feeling confident attacking in a shorter range due to this but the buff woman was about to show her how wrong she was.
"Ugh!", Xia exclaimed as her blade was pushed out of the way and a hard roundhouse kick connected on her head but the taller woman immediately responded by swinging her blade aiming for Jasmine's head.
The beanie hat girl easily saw it coming and ducked underneath to get behind her, immediately kicking the back of her knee, making the taller woman drop on it as she prepared to submit her by pressing both of her machetes on her neck.
"Crap!", Jasmine exclaimed, her head tilting to the side just in time to avoid certain dead as that snake sword aimed to pierce through her face. She still got a cut on her cheek that she didn't even have time to worry about as the now expanded sword suddenly returned and started wrapping around her neck.
Xia who was confident after shooting her sword at Jasmine by wrapping her arm around her stomach and get it under her arm ready to expand it, now twitched her mouth a bit annoyed as her strategy didn't work completely.
Kanae in the back watching the fight felt her soul return to her body as she saw Jasmine lift both blades next to her neck to stop the bladed whip to fully wrap around it.
"Looks like you're stuck honey", Xia giggled as she turned around and kept pushing for the whip to close around Jasmine's neck. The beanie hat girl knew she couldn't move her blades either or it'll be her doom, just gritting her teeth and glaring at Xia.
"I could... Help her now... I should...", Kanae muttered anxious as she slid her hand inside her gi again and gripping what was inside she took the first step only for her to not take any more as Jasmine forcefully open spread out the collar of blades closing around her neck with both her blades, enough to get her head out of it.
"I'm worrying for nothing I guess...", Noroe sighed and stepped back again. "Is this okay though?", Kanae thought.
"As expected from my equal!", Xia exclaimed satisfied and began whipping the brown haired girl at great speed, playing a mix of air cutting sounds and metal clashing as Jasmine used both blades to repel the attacks.
"Tch! How did she- shit!", first, Jasmine felt one of Xia's small blades cut the back of her left thigh, surprised at the extent of that whip's movement as the whipping was now insanely fast, to then feel it wrap around her right ankle. "Jasmine!!", Kanae's desperation was palpable that night.
Xia effortlessly pulled the beanie hat girl down and lifted her to smash her onto the wall to her right, which Jasmine still felt even to she curled up her body to avoid most damage. However, the muscular woman wasn't nowhere near as done.
Xia then pulled and swung her body to the left, making Jasmine cross her arms over her face as her body went through the cardboard, wood and glass of the window as her body flew through them into the chilly night outside.
But the Chinese woman had no intentions of finishing her off like that, instead she swung her body back as she turned around to get her into the hallway again, only for her to send the beanie hat one through the classroom's window Ryona had punched earlier, making it explode.
"Agh!", Jasmine exclaimed as she crashed and burnt onto a bunch of desks and chairs inside, going through some of them even. "Let's end this my dear!", Xia exclaimed as she pulled back the girl to make her body go slid through the guillotine made of broken glass around the window frame.
"Tch!", Xia however gritted her teeth as her whip felt stuck and refused to come back. She then looked at the beanie hat girl who had pierced one of the still intact desks with both blades to stop her body from being sliced like cheddar cheese.
"Seems you like it rougher~", Xia giggled deviously as she smoothly transitioned the punishment. "AAAAGH!!!", Jasmine yelled in pain as Xia forcefully pulled her by the ankle, almost feeling like her entire leg would be ripped off her body like that.
"I can't just-!", Noroe couldn't watch any longer. She slid her hand quickly inside her gi again but as soon as she did, Jasmine shouted firmly, "don't!!".
"Tch!", Noroe closed her eyes shut and looked away conflicted."NNNNNGH!!", Jasmine gritted her teeth as the hyperextension continued, hanging literally for dear life from her two blades stuck into that desk that had began grinding against the floor due to Jasmine pushing it against it with all she had.
"Sweetie, are you really going to just watch me rip your girlfriend's leg off her body like a Barbie doll?", Xia giggled deviously as she glanced at Noroe who glared deadly at her gritting her teeth and gripping both fists, not even feeling anymore her nails digging into her skin.
"Now!", Jasmine couldn't help but grin. "Or is it that you- GAAH!!", Xia continued to mess with the bow headband girl but the hard impact of wood against her body shut her up, and what came with it even more.
Jasmine's plan had required of enough pulling strength for a good base from her opponent. With Xia's whip fully tensed, the beanie hat girl made a testament of her core strength and raw power as she at the same she turned around her body in mid air, lifted the desk and threw it against Xia.
What she really wanted to throw at her wasn't the desk though, what she wanted her to meet was her dual blades sticking out under the desk and aiming to pierce the buff woman.
Xia instinctively contracted her whip, letting go of Jasmine's ankle but she didn't do it in time as the blades had travelled along with desk in a mere second, forcing her to use her forearms to stop them from stabbing her but getting them into her skin in the process due to their great sharpness.
"Nngh!", luckily for her though, the left forearm had taken most of the damage, using then her short sword to push the blades off her arm. Her well worked muscles also helped to stop the blades from doing a deeper cut on her forearm, but a good amount of blood still spilled out on the floor and some of the fallen bodies from earlier.
"Guh!", Xia didn't have time to worry about it however, Jasmine had already got back up and flew through the broken window with a jumping side kick onto Xia's stomach. Her kick and momentum enough to drive her and stomp her onto the wall behind.
"You're being too rough!!", Xia exclaimed angrier, reacting again and shooting her sword against her, expending it again. Jasmine avoided it matrix style and then rolling over on the floor backwards to reach the desk she had thrown at her.
Jasmine held the grip of both to stick them out of it, however Xia continued her snake sword attack, expending it against her. The brown haired girl had to use the desk to block her but the blades still went through it, just not enough enough to reach her however.
Both stood up and almost as if they had agreed to do it on the count of 3, the pulled back their blades at the same time, making that desk snap in two.
With multiple superficial small cuts on her arms and a couple on her face from going through the glass, Jasmine controlled her agitated breathing staring back at her opponent who, with two larger cuts on her left forearm and a nice bruise forming on her abs, did the same.
"This is the sight of two real warriors... - I feel a little jealous...", Kanae and Noroe thought respectively.
Xia made the first move, walking to the right while Jasmine walked to the left to readjust their positions and stand face to face with the dark hallway behind each one of them and get rid of the restriction the narrow space between the walls meant.
Xia then started by expending her sword again, trying to stab Jasmine who easily moved aside to let it pass. This time, Xia didn't contract it immediately as she aimed for it to come back for her from behind like a car quickly taking a return.
Jasmine had seen it coming already, using her golden blade to deviate it to the side as she wielded it backwards and then duck to her left and get out of its wrapping range. She then took the chance to approach Xia how unfortunately for her, still had yet to shown the full potential of her bladed whip.
Jasmine had to stop and get down as Xia swung back the blade and tried to slash her face horizontally. She quickly rolled backwards to get away of her range and rethink her strategy but Xia wasn't planning to give her time for that.
The buff woman kept advancing, whipping everything her path at great speed, creating a giant atom like sphere, only that instead of an orbit of electrons around a core of protons and neutrons, it was one of countless blades.
Jasmine kept using both blades to repel it as she walked backwards but the atomic whipping didn't seem to lose form in the slightest.
"I'm walking back into the darkness... I gotta stop that whip somehow", Jasmine thought as she noticed the broken and uncovered windows starting to stay behind and the ones completely covered starting to emerge again.
"It's all or nothing!", Jasmine muttered determined. She found the openings to go through the orbitals and become the core of that giant atom, making Xia stop her advance and using both blades to block and stop the orbitals to close around her with insane speed and precision.
Jasmine had already learned the pattern of her whipping thanks to her knowledge about basic chemistry and her only focus know was to find the right point to destroy the orbitals with her silver blade and then take one single large step to slash Xia's chest with the golden one and yet, amidst all, Xia smiled confident.
Jasmine would fail and the whip would finally close the orbitals around her, wrap up her entire body and slice her in pieces like a giant sausage.
That would've been the end of her if it wasn't because of her own dreadful angel watching over her and finally having enough reason to interfere.
The rotation of earth had got the exact line up for the sunlight reflected through the moon to enter through that broken window into the end of the illuminated zone of that hallway where her girlfriend stood as the core of a deadly atom and see the reflection that moonlight created in the form of a brief flash that was coming Jasmine's way.
She didn't shout, she didn't yell, she didn't even think, all both girls silently agreed on doing was to run and slide their hand inside the gi one more time to pull them out at last.
"Ngh!", Jasmine winced as the back of her left shoulder was cut at the same time she was about to destroy the orbital around her and that millisecond of hesitation, would have a deadly cost. "Let's end this darl-!!", Xia knew it too and was ready to wrap up her only equal and finish her off at last but the skull crushing impact of metal hit her on the side of her head, destroying the orbital whip in an instant.
"Kanae! Why did you-?!", Jasmine, despite being in debt to her, she first had to stop her from doing anything else against the strongest star, but instead of following up on the attack of a rocked Xia, Kanae instead took a few steps forward to stand right next to her but facing the opposite direction.
Jasmine looked over her shoulder as Kanae threw her white steel made chained nunchucks into the darkness like a spinning wheel and to her shock, the darkness repelled them.
"I knew it...", Noroe said angry as she easily caught them back like a boomerang returning to her. "Heh... I see you've improved sweetie", Xia giggled deviously. Jasmine immediately turned her attention to her, on guard again.
The buff woman however wasn't taking hers yet, she was calmly rubbing the side of her head and as she removed her hand, her ear had turned black and painfully swollen from that steel nunchuck hitting her seconds ago.
"Come on out! I'll be your opponent!", Noroe demanded furious. Jasmine had to turn around to believe it as she started hearing the calm footsteps approaching and then a figure emerge from that dark hallway.
It was a girl, she had dark cyan hair tied in a short ponytail, her bang nicely brushed to the left and a few to the right, dark green eyes as well. She wore cat eared headphones, a short sleeved dark cyan jacket, a slightly cropped top of punk style square pattern, jeans short dark blue and long boot on her left leg, while the right one wore a short but a ribbon wrapped around the leg and the most noticeable of all, a pair of chained sickles in hand and the gamma symbol tattooed on her neck.
For a reason she didn't understand and even though she could swear on oath this wasn't the case, Jasmine felt like she knew this girl, disturbingly, all too well.
"Allow me to introduce to you one of our newest additions. The 3rd of the 3 disruptors, "silent gamma" Rinne Kosakawa", Xia said as she curled her index finger at the dark cyan haired girl, who despite keeping her eyes mostly on her, briefly crossed eyes with the bow headband girl and for that brief second, the air became heavier than the sun.
"She doesn't like to talk too much", Xia giggled as she wrapped her arm around Rinne's hips, pulling her close, shoving her right index finger into her mouth, which the girl gladly received while her hand caressed Xia's ripped abs.
"You two are gro-?", Jasmine began saying with an expression of pure disdain but it soon changed as she felt an arm around her waist. "K-Kanae?", Jasmine asked a bit flattered as her girlfriend pulled her close by the waist and grabbed her arm to wrapped it around her own shoulders herself.
While the presence of that girl caused Jasmine to be invaded by a strange feeling of familiarity, on Kanae and Noroe themselves, a different but similarly strange feeling of its own had taken over.
Belonging.
A feeling that just became stronger as she noticed Rinne's eyes set on her beanie hat girl while she sucked Xia's finger and caressed her abs.
"I-I have noticed something strange going on during your fight... First I saw Xia's whip return after you dodged it in a perfect curve as if it moved at will, then I saw you twitching your left leg when her whip didn't even touch you there... - And I'm sure you may have wondered why did you get that cut on your shoulder on that last attack", Noroe and Kanae explained.
"I see... So she had been hiding in the shadows and helping Xia attacking me from behind or helping her change the trajectory of her whip with those...", Jasmine understood as she glanced at the chained sickles in her hand.
"An unfair fight if you ask me, babe - as equals in strength, even the smallest grain of sand could make a deadly difference in the fight... D-Darling", Noroe and Kanae stated as they pulled Jasmine even closer.
"W-What's with you now?", Jasmine asked blushing at her girlfriend's unusual public use of nicknames. She normally called her that in private and it took her a lot to do so, specially to Noroe who just did it like it was the most normal thing in the world to say.
"W-What do you mean?", Kanae asked with sad puppy eyes. "Nothing! It's all good, hun", Jasmine, like that dark blue haired girl, couldn't stand seeing her respective girls like that.
"Fufufu, you know, it's quite endearing seeing you two act like that... Maybe in different reality we relive this the four of us, sitting at a nice cafe and... Enjoying a nice double date... Unfortunately though, right now, you're someone I must get rid of", Xia said mockingly as she gently let go of Rinne and took her stance again.
Kanae and Noroe may had been too distracted by that strange feeling, but Jasmine didn't fail to notice the brief shine in those red eyes amidst her mocking words.
"I guess I can say the same", Jasmine sighed as she did the same. "Then it's two on two now", Noroe added as she took hers.
"I don't think Rinne has any objections now", Xia said rubbing the girl's cheek with her finger. "Then let's go", Jasmine finally said.
"HA!!", they all shouted at the same time. Rinne pushed first, driving Noroe into the darker zone of the hallway, swinging both sickles her way while the black haired girl dodged them and walked backwards.
At the very same time, Jasmine closed in the distance between her and Xia, wielding her swords against her one after the other to push her in the opposite direction. Xia blocked her attacks with her contracted sword.
Noroe found an opening as she read Rinne's attack pattern, throwing a middle kick to her gut to stop her onslaught. She immediately followed by swinging her nunchucks against her which Rinne blocked in with both sickles.
The bow headband girl combined her nunchuck attacks as she swung them horizontally, spinning around with the momentum and throwing a spinning lock kick and a spinning nunchuck strike as she turned around.
Rinne blocked the weapon but failed to see the low, getting thrown off balance as she twitched her leg. Noroe followed immediately with fast swinging of her nunchucks against her that although she tried to block, they soon broke through both sickles and hit her in the mouth.
Rinne tried to counter quickly with her right sickle but the black haired girl caught her wrist with the chain of her own nunchucks, shifting her body into the girl to pull her over her shoulder with arm drag onto the floor.
At the same time this happened, Jasmine barrage had been stopped as managed to deviate one of her blades while the other still had a good distance to cover with a follow up, leaving a good opening for a quick knee strike to her chin, rocking her backwards.
Xia was no fool however, she didn't get any closer, instead, she expended her whip against Jasmine again, aiming to wrap it around her neck again which the beanie hat girl had well scouted by now, quickly lifting her blades to stop it from closing around it.
But to her surprise, the buff woman quickly turned around and whipped above her head to the front. Jasmine gritted her teeth and beared the pain on her back that soon extended through her entire body as all her bones and organs vibrated.
Jasmine had already thought of everything. She knew Xia would tighten the grip around her neck in an effort to fully close it around it, Jasmine allowed it but put enough resistance with her blades so the blades didn't dig into her skin.
Xia turned around to pull and throw her over her head again, however she didn't expect the sudden resistance of the beanie hat girl as if her whip was instead wrapped around a tree and she tried to pull it off the ground, to no avail of course.
Jasmine had waited the right moment to wrap her legs around one of the fallen monsters around her, a young man luckily tall and a bit muscular whose weight combined with her own, made Xia flinch on her whipping which weakened the grip for a second.
The beanie hat girl pushed the whip open and got her head out of it, but what she left there as Xia immediately pulled to tighten the grip again, were both blades around which that bladed whip fully wrapped tight.
"I got ya!", Jasmine said she pulled hard and Xia along who refused to let go of her weapon for obvious reasons. "You're being too rough! Kyah!", she exclaimed as her body slammed onto the wall.
On the other side, Rinne had kicked Noroe's chest as she tried to finish her with a quick a nunchuck strike to the face, pushing her back and using the momentum to kip back up and do a roll up forward to create some distance between them.
Noroe tried to follow quickly but Rinne quickly turned around and threw her chained sickles at her like a Boomerang. The bow headband girl did have time to dodge. She managed to hit and deviate the trajectory onto the wall but the the timing hadn't been perfect as the slightly deep cut she got on her eyebrow testified now.
Kanae worried about the scar it may leave but Noroe knew there wasn't time for that as Rinne now weaponless was coming at her bare handed.
Noroe blocked her punches and kicks in time but as she tried to keep up with her strike barrage, the blood from that cut had started coming out and streaming down her left eye forcing her to close it.
Rinne would take full advantage of this as she refocused her attacks on her left side. Noroe missed blocking a low kick that returned her the favor and then a hook to her ribs and clinch that reduced any possibility of expending her nunchucks efficiently.
While having her clinched with her left, Rinne used her right fist to punch Noroe's head which the bow headband girl only could lift her guard against, blocking those and a couple of knee strikes to her torso.
Noroe still did her best to counter with her free arm. Throwing short range punches of her own, which Rinne easily blocked and soon read as she ducked and quickly wrapped her arm around her and the other around her left leg.
With surprising strength, Rinne, despite being shorter than Kanae, lifted her and drove her onto the concrete with a classic wrestling takedown, immediately getting on top of her afterwards MMA style.
As Rinne tried to punch through her nunchucks Noroe used to guard her face, the black haired girl got slightly frightened at the red marks starting to appear on her knuckles as she kept punching the steel, making her think she was set on destroying those nunchucks with her fists to then do the same to her face.
Noroe still lacking training on ground fight, found herself in a pinch.
And lastly, Jasmine and Xia were about to close their own fight with the only outcome possible for the two equals.
As both held the bladed whip like a tug of war game, trying to best each other's strength, both arms of the two warriors tense and with their arm muscles greatly swollen as they gritted their teeth and looked into each other's red eyes, they seemed to finally reach an agreement.
Xia and Jasmine nodded and at the very same time, they let go of their weapons, letting them crash onto the other in mid air and fall right in the middle of the distance that separated them.
Both took a deep breath and moved, again at the same time, approached the other as they aimed to retrieve their respective blades.
Of course, they knew it wouldn't be that easy.
Jasmine threw a right hook to seek for the advantage, Xia stopped it with one of her own. Left uppercut, right uraken, double palm strike, right and left low kicks, right roundhouse to the head, like a mirror image of each other, both stopped each other's attacks with the exact same one in terms not only of type, but speed, power and precision alike.
Both intertwined hands in a classic wrestling clutch and looking into the fire each other's red eyes radiated, they pulled their heads backwards and threw it against each other's for a heavy stereo headbutt in which the silent haunted school hallway allowed to hear well the sound of the skulls clashing.
One, two, three, their heads kept bumping into the other as a nasty bruise and a trail of blood started running down their face, between their eyes and they didn't plan on stopping until one of them shattered like it was made glass.
••••••••••••••••••••••••••

No word needed to be spoken.
The sound of metal clashing was heard immediately after the white haired girl reached the blond woman as her sai was blocked by her combat knife.
Mayu's speed was ridiculously high the more she moved, slashing and stabbing against Irina like a machine programmed to do so but somehow, the Russian woman managed to keep up, blocking everything with her knife and a second one she pulled out to keep up with the twin sai.
Mayu shook her guard enough to push her backwards and followed up with a jumping double hammer stab that Irina barely dodged ripping her leotards long sleeve but thankfully not her skin.
Mayu followed up immediately with two rising slash moves, as if her body rewinded all it's moves but Irina jumped backwards to avoid the attack.
With enough distance between them, Mayu again moved almost as if she teleported to get right behind the red beret woman but she had also followed her moves, quickly turning around trying to slash the back of her head.
Mayu ducked quickly as she turned around and wrapped her arms around her waist to then lift her and drive her onto the ground with a northern lights suplex. Irina tried to catch her but the bridge her body had made also served her to escape as she pulled her legs and jumped backwards to get back up.
The white haired girl quickly guarded as Irina kipped back up at the same time she dropkicked her to avoid her getting any closer. Landing on her feet smoothly afterwards.
Mayu didn't waste time and went at her again, swinging both sai blades at her with her tremendous speed. Kai's jaw dropped at how she could swing the weapon around her wrist before even attacking to make it harder for Irina to read the kind of attack coming.
Irina blocked a double horizontal slash but the inertia pushed her arms to the side, enough for Mayu to have enough room for a quick roundhouse to the head but the red beret woman ducked her head in time.
However Mayu didn't stop in the slightest. She let her leg pass above her head and with the inertia granted, spun around and shoot her other leg immediately to kick Irina's solar plexus and push her backwards.
Her mistake however, would be going for a third kick.
Irina saw it coming and slashed Mayu's leg a bit below her knee.
"Mayu!!", Monika shouted scared but Mayu gritted her teeth to withstand the pain as she quickly retreated her leg and blocked an attempt of stabbing with both Sai blades, trapping that knife in an X.
Mayu pushed it aside but Irina looked for this as the momentum allowed her to throw and land a scorpion kick on Mayu's face, knocking her over.
The white haired girl rolled over quickly to avoid Irina's diving foot stomp as she saw her jumping in her direction. The white haired tried to slash her legs from that position but Irina avoided it with a small jump, which Mayu took advantage of to roll back to her feet.
Irina too was well aware of this battle where speed had deadly implications. She went at Mayu for a stab that she dodged in time but made a cut on her arm, followed with a hammer stab with the other which Mayu blocked with her Sai, however, the power embedded in the attack exceed her expectations, pushing enough to cut her forearm.
"Mayu!!", Monika exclaimed desperate. "Nijimura! What are you still doing here?!!", Mayu asked quickly as she kept dodging Irina's slashing barrage.
Kai had found himself so dumfounded by the fast battle unfolding that he just could keep watching, forgetting his duty for a moment. "Sorry!", Kai realized and quickly carried Monika over his shoulder to not waste any more time, however...
"What da-?!", Kai felt a hard grip on his ankle, turning around to see one of those muscular zombies looking at him from the ground with redder eyes than before. He then looked around and noticed the rest starting to raise again.
"Let go of me punk!", Kai exclaimed as he grabbed his sword's sheath and hit the zombie in the face with the end cap of it, knocking him out to force him to let go of his ankle and start running.
His efforts hadn't been in vain however as the time gained by the zombie now out, allowed the rest to get up and block the exit and surround the two of them.
"No way around it I guess...", Kai grunted annoyed and put down Monika who stood back to back with him. "I'll tell you when one is getting your back", Monika said nervous but brave.
"Come on you shitheads!!", Kai exclaimed as the first three approached him and got another good swing in the head with the sheath, only this time they didn't go down yet, just stumbling backwards instead.
"One at your six!", Monika exclaimed. "My what?!", Kai asked confused as he front kicked one of the zombies into the other. "Just turn around", Monika exclaimed.
Kai did so and Monika got down as the muscular zombie was about to attack her, getting a hard strike on the temple with the swords sheath as Kai turned around already swinging his weapon.
"You gotta be shitting me...", Kai muttered as that zombie still wasn't out and what was worse, the one he thought had knocked out first was already up and coming for them.
"They're surrounding us!!", Monika exclaimed, back to back with him again. "I noticed that...", Kai gulped gripping his sword hard, about to make the ultimate decision.
"No other choice... I just gotta avoid their vi-!", Kai thought as he began drawing his katana but suddenly, all those zombies around, fell down at the same time as if they had been dragged back to hell.
Kai and Monika then saw it.
A combat knife stuck right between Minoru's eyes as he laid down lifeless amidst the horde.
"There, now you can focus on our fight", both turned their attention at the Russian accent of that voice where that red beret woman stood with one hand on her hip, wielding now just one of her knives.
In front of her, Mayu stood gritting her teeth and catching her breath. Various superficial cuts all over her arms, one on her collarbone and one on her cheeks showed her fight wasn't going that well.
"Mayu...", Monika looked at her concerned. The white haired girl noticed it and looked to the floor ashamed and frustrated. "Her eyes kept drifting in your direction, Monika, so I had to stop that fool from interfering in our fight and have her focused again", Irina sighed as she pointed at the now dead Minoru with her knife.
"I-I'm sorry, Mayu...", Monika said guilty. "Just get out of here already", Mayu grunted.
"I will and make sure to beat her ass again! I'll be waiting for you outside!", Monika understood what she had to do, but even her best attempt of cheering Mayu up didn't work as the white haired girl just didn't dare to look at her in the eyes.
"Let's go, Kai", Monika said and started heading to the exit of the court, her head low now. "I'll go first, just in case!", Kai exclaimed and got ahead of her, which Monika didn't care about.
"Are you ready now, Tsurugi Mayu?", Irina asked. "Let's just settle this already", Mayu growled furious again, but the internal conflict frustration and guilt caused still resided within her.
"Cheer up Moni! You didn't do anything wrong! That shows how much she worries about you right?", Kai spoke as he looked over his shoulder back at Monika who kept walking low headed behind him. "Not now, Kai, please", Monika sighed as she crossed arms.
"Sorry, sorry... Just keep in mind that she- GUUHHH!!", Kai tried to say one last thing but he suddenly ran out of air that could allow him to say anything else. "Wha-!!", Monika's reflexes luckily still worked, moving aside just in time as Kai's body flew backwards and landed on his back holding his stomach and gasping as if he were hyperventilating.
"Had that been my blade, you two would be impaled together on it now. I chose to use my foot instead", those words immediately made the brunette move her eyes from Kai to the source of that deep and foreigner accented voice.
After he leaned down enough for his head to go under that metal door frame, Monika saw him well. A tall black man around 7 foot tall, noticably died dark blond messy hair and thick beard, he wore a black and gold samurai dougi and hakama, instead of matching clogs however, he wore a pair of common sneakers. He had a muscular and slightly hairy body, a golden Lion tattooed on his right arm but oddly enough at the same time a great belly where a β symbol was tattooed as well.
What also wasn't something to overlook, was his exceptionally long katana sword he held, almost double the size of a regular one, capable of matching his great height and complexion.
"Hey! Don't you even worry about him, Tsurugi Mayu!", Irina exclaimed as she noticed Mayu about to go in Monika's aid. Her firm tone like a general made her stop. "Hank! Don't do anything to the brunette! Focus on that clown there", Irina said glancing at Kai getting back up catching his breath.
"Ok!", Hank looked at her with an oddly friendly grin and made a circle with his index and thumb. "Hank...?", Monika muttered and for a strange reason, a feeling of familiarity came from hearing that name.
"Monika!", Irina shouted, startling the girl a bit. "Sit down and watch", Irina said as she kicked one of the wooden benches on the sides of the court, sliding it closer to where she was.
"If you just stand there, Tsurugi Mayu will probably lost her focus again and I suppose going out there alone is not an option anymore, is it?", Irina said glancing at Mayu who glared at her but had nothing to object. "Alright", Monika was quick to make the smartest decision, going and sitting on that bench like a player waiting in the sidelines.
"I guess I can't keep playing around with you gramps", Kai said and spat to the floor, to then draw his katana at last, leaving the sheath attached to his waist and taking a te ura gasumi stance typical of kendo. "Is that right?", Hank chuckled as he gripped his large katana with both hands resting it on the ground like a bag of bones.
Kai started by wielding his katana towards the tall man, running and going for a descending diagonal slash that Hank blocked by lifting his sword a bit, holding it upside down vertically in front of him to block that and three more follow ups.
The characteristic clink clank sound of two swords clashing resounded inside that tennis court that night.
Hank blocked and pulled Kai's sword in at the same time to break his balance, enough to hit him in the face with the buttcap of his large katana, rocking him and getting him to exclaim, "not in the face, stupid!".
"Don't be a turtle then son", Hank replied and followed up with a barrage of buttcap strikes at impressive speed, the first easily pushing Kai's guard aside and the rest landing all over his chest like machine gun bullets.
"Gaaah!!", Kai's pectoral muscles thankfully reduced several damage to the organs. He pushed through the pain with a slash aiming to cut Hank's hand off. "Yowie wowie!", Hank exclaimed as he retreated the handle of his sword, hearing the sound of Kai's blade cutting the air.
"Shaah!", Kai exclaimed, immediately following up with a spinning diagonal slash which Hank easily stopped with his large blade. "Not bad kiddo", he grinned.
"Stop underestimating me you old geezer!!", Kai exclaimed angry, pulling back his sword only to follow up wielding it repeatedly at him, which Hank easily blocked every time barely moving his sword from that upside down position.
Oddly enough for him, he wasn't worried on how desperate he looked to connect an attack or how weak he may have looked at times in the eyes of a pretty girl like the literature club president, the only thing in his mind was slashing that smirk of Hank's face.
It didn't matter if he did worry however, as her emerald green eyes hadn't been taken off her white haired's crush fight for even a millisecond.
Monika saw Mayu quickly refocus after she sat down and although Irina was wielding a single knife now, she didn't restrict her own moves at all, using both sides to block and deviate her attacks.
She saw Mayu soon reading her pattern attack, trapping her knife between her twin Sais in an x, quickly twisting her arm to force her to let go of it.
Irina however didn't resist that much, she instead allowed the hammerlock like counter to follow, turning around but quickly leaning backwards and using her free arm to grab onto Mayu's head.
Irina transitioned it then into a shiranui, a backflip inverted facelock drop she beautifully pulled out, flying over Mayu's head like a leveler pulled and driving Mayu head first onto the ground.
The white haired girl curled up her head in time to avoid a concussion, but the position allowed Irina to try and stab her face to nail it into the court. Monika had of course flinched scared at this, gripping her fists as Irina raised her knife.
But to her relief, Mayu rolled over to avoid certain death and then into a roll up to stab Irina with one Sai as she returned to her like a soccer ball. The red beret woman caught her wrist with perfect precision and with one simple twist to her wrist, forced her to drop her weapon.
Mayu used the other Sai to stab and force her to quickly let go of her and move aside barely in time as the blade scratched her jaw. Irina immediately attacked to stop Mayu from even thinking of picking up her other Sai.
Both were up again and Irina continued to take the offensive, swinging her knife around to reach Mayu but the white haired girl always kept up until her finisher attack was about to come at last.
"Come on, come on!", Monika quietly chanted as she saw it too.
Mayu pushed her knife aside enough to throw a middle kick to her stomach which Irina quickly caught with her free hand or so she thought.
Mayu instead retreated her foot immediately, letting her hand close around the air to then quickly shoot a big superkick to the jaw with that same leg, rocking the one of red beret.
Finally, Mayu went for that spinning hook kick to the Head, shades of that Amsterdam man but Irina unfortunately for her, never fell to the same attack twice.
"No!", Monika exclaimed as Irina quickly stabbed Mayu's ankle with pin point accuracy and hadn't it been for those long wrestling boots, it would've impaled her ankle into the knife like meat into a skewer.
"Agh!", Mayu exclaimed as the sharp tip of the knife pinched her ankle, quickly and instinctively dropping to the ground to pull her leg back in the fastest and most efficient way possible before it could pierce any further.
"Nnngh... Come on Mayu! You can do it!", Monika shouted her heart out at last and amidst the fierce fight, Mayu couldn't help but let out a little smile.
"Nghh!!", Irina gritted her teeth as Mayu shoot a kick to her knee from the ground, barely avoiding its dislocation. But Mayu didn't stop, withstanding the burning pain on her ankle she shoot one after the other, kicks like machine guns to her stomach as she leaned down the stab her.
The speed with which she shot and pulled back her legs was so insane, she didn't get to stab or slash through any of them with her knife, soon being pushed away as Mayu shoot herself with one of her kicks to fully get back up.
"This is what I'm talking about Tsurugi Mayu!!", Irina exclaimed fired up to then swing her knife around at the white haired one, who now could see her attacks from miles ahead, not using her sai anymore to block, just dodging, ducking and moving aside.
"Hyah!!", Mayu exclaimed as she moved aside a diagonal slash and kick Irina right in the stomach hard enough to lift her body off the ground a bit. "Yeah! Keep going Mayu! You got this baby!!", Monika exclaimed and although Mayu blushed, she didn't lose her focus in the slightest.
The student council president charged at a rocked Irina with superman slash which she barely ducked to avoid having her face split in two. Mayu followed up with a barrage of stabs and slash attacks Irina did her best to block and dodge but Mayu's speed was just increasing and consequentially getting various cuts on her face, arms and torso, needless to mention her now ripped clothes.
"Excellent Tsurugi Mayu! But I'm just- ngh!", Irina found and opening amidst the barrage or so she had thought. Mayu quickly put the Sai between her teeth and caught her arm and in the blink of an eye, she entangled her legs around Irina's leg and neck as she got on her back and pulled her arm in the octopus stretch.
Mayu had only one thing to say after grabbing the sai with one hand while keeping Irina's arm pulled with the other, "just go to sleep already".

"Dude, seriously, this is not the time or the place for this!", Unrestrained exclaimed embarrassed as the cat girl kept rubbing on her leg and purring non stop. "Nyehehe!", Kanefusa giggled happy in reply.
"You two need to get a room and some shame", Catrina said denying with her head. "Oye! It isn't me dude!", Unrestrained exclaimed offended.
"Gyaaah!!", a scream of pain startled the hero a bit. "Whoa! Wha-?!", She looked over her shoulder to see another of those Catrines of red eyes dropping to his knees as 4 long red lines appeared across his thighs.
Kanefusa hissed and she understood, "don't bother us right nyow!", she exclaimed hugging Emerson's leg tighter against her generous chest while aiming her claws at the other catrines of red eyes trying to approach.
"D-Dude, how about you take care of those guys while I deal with Catrina there?", Emerson asked nicely and surprisingly, the cat girl immediately stood up and said, "nyes, master!".
"Eesh...", Unrestrained said as kanefusa cheerfully exclaimed those words and at the same time scratched the stomach of one of the henchmen trying to get her back. "At least you're motivated", Unrestrained sighed with a smile and quickly petted her to then turn and head for Catrina patiently waiting.
As Kanefusa began attacking the Catrines trying to surround them, the cyan blue and red hero dashed her way onto Catrina who grinned and clashed swords with her to start again.
"Watch out dude!", Unrestrained exclaimed as she ducked a double horizontal slash, punching Catrina's gut and quickly hitting her with the knee as she bent over, making her stumble backwards.
"Seeei!!", Catrina shouted as she tried to slash the hero in half as she jumped onto her but the strange helmet just moved her shield to the front to block and hit her in face in the process. "Carajo!", Catrina exclaimed annoyed as she swung around both blades like a fire eater would do with their torches to show off.
"Nice tricks dude!", Emerson exclaimed as she used her sword and shield to deviate both blades at the same time and leave the girl wide open for a moonsault kick to the shin. "Agh!", Catrina exclaimed rocked and stumbling but still trying to slash her head off as she approached to follow up.
Unrestrained lowered her head letting the blade hit the top of her helmet, successfully repelling the blade, making the back of it bounce and hit her in the face.
Emerson quickly used Catrina's leg as a step to jump onto her shoulders only for her to take off like a rocket and fly to the sky behind her, kicking the back of her head in the process.
"Maldita pe-agh!!", Catrina quickly turned around only to see Emerson turning around in mid air and throw her shield at her, hitting her hard in the face to knock her down while the shield came back to her like a boomerang.
"Looks like I win dude", Unrestrained said confident. Catrina didn't even have time to recover and get up as the tip of the hero's sword was right on her nose. The Mexican representation of death gritted her teeth frustrated but didn't try to get up, she just glared back at Emerson from the ground, considering admitting defeat as viable option now.
"Kyaaah!!", but the sudden scream made by that familiar squeaky voice made her look up as it also had come after the now familiar sound of metal grinding and snapping.
"Qué...?!", Emerson mumbled disturbed after seeing Kanefusa's body land on her back to reveal the tall figure that sent her flying away.
It was a Japanese man of black long hair and beard, tall and of great muscular shape, he just wore a pair of tight jeans and shoes while carrying around with one hand a giant claymore sword and shirtless as he was also allowed her to see the α symbol tattooed where his heart was.
Emerson thought that if she had to describe him with a few words it would be "buff japanese Jesus" and for some reason, it felt disturbingly familiar to her.
"Agh!", Emerson exclaimed as she felt the burning pain across her stomach, quickly and instinctively jumping backwards to get away from danger. Catrina grinned cocky again from the ground after successfully slashing the hero's stomach who luckily and thanks to her suit, had only got it superficially but it still burnt and hurt quite a lot.
"Bajaste la guardia, querida", Catrina said as she stood up along with Kanefusa a few feet away from her as that buff Jesus of the giant claymore calmly approached her again, noticing too the rest of fallen Catrines on the ground and just him still standing it seemed.
"Where are you looking at?!", Catrina exclaimed now aiming for her joining her blades as one and corkscrewing against her like a drill to literally go through her. "Cállate!", Unrestrained exclaimed and deviated her trajectory using both weapons but somehow Catrina was able to put on the brake and turn around to shoot herself back at her like a guided missile.
"Shut!", Emerson exclaimed as she moved aside and tried to let her crash onto the tree planter behind, but Catrina again adjusted her trajectory in mid air, kicking and boosting herself with it to go at her with more power and speed that before.
Dodging her attacks and feeling as if she was stuck in a pinball game, the hero could only watch as that giant claymore kept swinging against her cat girl friend, growing desperate as she saw the cuts on her shoulder and ribs.
As Kanefusa's right leg was slashed, making her fall from the pain, Emerson threw away any doubts and went for it all.
Quickly positioning herself from where the path would be clear, she waited for Catrina flying in a corkscrew onto her tirelessly, standing firm then as she used both her blade and shield to resist the drilling like stab and deviate it onto the muscular man of the beard.
"Mierda!", Catrina exclaimed as she found herself flying through a clear path with nothing to help her put the brakes on and about to drill the alpha male, while Unrestrained rushed to reach the cat girl who was about to be cut in half.
"Gotcha!- Whoa!!", Emerson said as she wrapped her arms around Kanefusa's waist and was about to pull her off the way, however an unexpected body knocked them over again.
"What the-?!", Emerson exclaimed shocked. "Qué mierda haces?!", Catrina, who had been easily caught by her dress with his free arm and had been thrown onto them, now laid on top of the three bodies and about to be sliced with them.
But even though her enemy's body trapped both as some worthy sacrifice and the giant claymore was raised high above his head, ready to chop down, Emerson didn't see the end yet.
CLINK!!
"Took you long enough dude!!", Emerson exclaimed with a big smile on her face. Catrina and Kanefusa alike couldn't help but look at that man with great disbelief.
He was as tall as the one with the giant sword, dark brown hair with some visible gray ones mostly on the side, he wore dark brown pants, black short boots and a long gray coat, then as the Damascus sword he wielded pushed the giant claymore away and his body turned to the side, they were able to see the thick mustache he had.
"Hmm...", the alpha male grunted and aimed to slash the thick mustache man again but the Damascus sword even though it was the smaller one, quickly blocked every shoot to then break through and stab the buff man's left trapezoid muscle clean.
"Hmm?", the thick mustache man grunted surprised as the alpha male simply stepped back for the sword to slide out of his body, letting blood just stream down his left half.
"Who the heck is this guy?!", Catrina asked dumbfounded still piled up on top of the hero and her cat girl to which Emerson cheerfully replied, "you better give up now because my dude Dorian has arrived!".

"Over here freak!", Natsuki exclaimed as she moved aside and away from her still agonizing purple girl. The one dressed in red luckily looked her way and dashed to pierce her with a fast stab. "Shit!", Natsuki exclaimed as she dodged it and continuing to move around to guide the red woman away from her purple girl.
Natsuki moved around the spacious gym, dodging and sometimes barely escaping that red blade's grasp. "Take this!", She said as she picked up one of the pumpkins they carved to decorate the place and threw it at her but the strange blade easily sliced it in half in the air.
Natsuki did her best to gain time, throwing pumpkins, glasses and chairs at her to slow her down but they all ended the same way, scattered on the floor next to their other half.
"Just a little bit more! Once there's enough distance between her and Yuri, I'll use this triumph card Gen gave on her and run for it to get my girl out of this place!", Natsuki thought as she touched the stun gun hidden inside her magical girl attire.
The pink girl couldn't contain a triumphant grin as she finally reached that large table with the many glasses filled of red liquid and a bigger bowl that reassembled a mini pool of blood.
The red woman stood in front of her as the pink girl faked being cornered having only that large table behind. The second star raised her sword high and as she wielded down to slice the pink one in half, Natsuki moonsaulted her way out and landed right up in the stands behind, letting her split the pool of blood in two.
"I got you now idiot!", Natsuki exclaimed victorious as the red liquid spilled under her feet and finally, threw her buzzing stun gun into the puddle.
Watching her body paralyze and convulse had been a great sight but Natsuki had no time to lose as she turned around and ran back to her still screaming girl, thankful her ears somehow had get used to it by now.
WHOOSH!!
"AAAGH!! THE FUCK?!", a burning pain suddenly she felt on her shoulder blade quickly turning around only to see that red demon about to swing her blade at her again.
Natsuki reacted in time and dodged her blade but the red woman didn't stop now that she had her within her range. One after the other, Natsuki thanked the wonders of adrenaline for allowing her to withstand the cut on her shoulder blade and successfully dodge all of her attacks.
"Agh!", Natsuki exclaimed as the speed of the red one began to increase, getting another superficial but nonetheless unpleasant cut on her arm.
This however costed her as the hesitation messed her rhythm of evasion, starting to get her magical girl attire ripped as she barely avoided some attacks while others got to scratch her ribs and arms.
The multiple wounds started taking their toll, slowing her down until she eventually collapsed to the ground, but amidst all she somehow managed to get her away from her agonizing girl again.
"No... No! Please wait! Agh!!", Natsuki said as she found herself unable to get back up again as the red woman kicked her in the face and pulled back her blade, ready to stab her heart into the ground.
SPLAT!!
"Huh?", Natsuki's eyes then saw an orange pumpkin beautifully explode on her executioners head. "Haha! Take that! Pumpkin meteor attack!", wearing a excellent cosplay of that black suit the guys in that manga called Gantz she refused to read, the newest literature club member had finally shown up.
"Mizuki-chan!", Natsuki said after quickly rolling away from the demon's range who now stared at the blue haired girl with eerie calm. "It's Adelheid Heidenreich! But anyways, just go away! Adelheid will be her opponent now!", Adelheid said as she pulled out a katana matching the cosplay she wore.
"G-Gotcha! Thanks!", Natsuki said and nodded and quickly turned around, ready to finally take her girlfriend out of that hell. "Come on! Adelheid sees you as worthy-!", Adelheid had exclaimed but as Natsuki's curiosity got the best of her, briefly looking over her shoulder to see how she was doing, all she found was half of her fake katana flying away.
"Kyah!", Adelheid exclaimed as she clumsily but luckily stepped back from certain death as the red woman almost slashed her chest but not everything had gone well as she stumbled and fell on her rear frightened as her end was coming her way.
Natsuki truly sometimes cursed her own rightful heart.
"Haaaaaaaauh!!", the pink girl shouted as she quickly turned around and charged for the red woman again. She quickly turned around and tried to slash her head off but it was to late as Natsuki had already jumped high above her head and as gravity did its job she grabbed one of many thin spikes coming out of her head and drove her head first onto the ground.
Adelheid quickly rolled out of the way and got back up at the same time Natsuki did the same and approached her.
"Listen up Heidi, you're gonna run and get Yuri out of here while I keep her busy, okay? Hopefully you'll run into some of our friends outside so send help if you can", Natsuki spoke fast as they carefully stepped back while the red woman calmly got back up again with her sights on them.
"H-Heidi??", Adelheid asked confused. "Adelheid is a bit difficult to pronounce yeah... That doesn't matter just hurry!", Natsuki exclaimed impatiently and snatched the broken sword off her hands.
"Yes!", Adelheid obeyed and started heading Yuri's way. "This way fool!", Natsuki shouted when she saw the red woman's head looking at Adelheid running, aiming to chop down her arm.
"Fuck...", Natsuki muttered as the fake sword didn't even scratch the demon's shoulder but at got her attention back. "Dammit!", Natsuki exclaimed as the red blade quickly was swung her way, using the fake katana to defend herself but with every slash it fell apart like a chopped vegetable.
"Come on Yuri! We have to move!", Adelheid exclaimed as she reached the purple girl shaking her shoulders and feeling how extremely tensed they were. "Nnngh!! Come oooon!", Adelheid tried to pull her up from behind but the purple girl was like a statue.
She kept screaming, sit on her knees, eyes closed shut, grabbing her head and curling her body a bit, her body so tense it looked like it vibrated.
"Kyah!", Adelheid was able to hear the pink girl's voice, lifting her head and looking at her only to see her falling down again. "Nat! Nnngh! Dammit! Adelheid can't just stand here and watch!", the blue haired girl let go of Yuri as she watched the red woman kicking Natsuki's side as she tried to get up as if she was a soccer ball.
"Wooooooaaaah!!", Adelheid ran back to help the pink girl about to be impaled but the red woman was already waiting for her. "Guhaah!!", Adelheid was easily repelled as the red one spun around and kicked her away onto the stands.
And that was as far as she went as the blue haired one hit her head and lost consciousness.
Natsuki didn't waste her efforts and got up quickly to take advantage of the distraction, going for a spear to take down the red one when she turned around.
It may had been a better choice to run away now and rethink a strategy but for some reason, the more she hurt her, the more Natsuki wanted to get payback at that monster.
Sadly, the gap between their abilities was still too big as the red woman easily shook her hips to the side, pushing Natsuki's body away.
The pink girl fell awkwardly on her side but she didn't even have time to grunt as the red woman kicked her face again, finally getting blood coming out of nose to then stomp her shoulder onto the ground to stop her from trying to get away.
"AAAAGH!", Natsuki screamed as she felt her shoulder squashed by the hard sole of that demon's boot. "No, no, no!", Natsuki exclaimed desperate as the red woman calmly pressed the tip of her blade on her chest to then slowly push it into her flesh.
"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

Come
Yuri's P.O.V.
What is this?
It's all... Black...
The buzzing stopped.
The voices stopped.
The pain stopped.
It's so quiet here... But where am I?
I feel so light...
Umm? Is that... There's someone standing in the distance.
As I approach I can see they're standing sideways and... The clothes she's wearing.
I say she because the prominent chest makes it obvious, however if the beige turtle neck sweater and the black leggings weren't enough, that dark purple long hair makes it even clearer for me now.
That's me.
"H-Hello?", I say, back to my stuttering I guess. "Welcome, Yuri", she keeps standing sideways not looking at me but still replies.
"I-I guess it's dumb to ask why you know my name...", I say. Surely my voice sounds the same as hers sounds to me. "We're both Yuri yes and although our name, appearance and even our existence are the same, our reality isn't", she says.
"Our existence?", I ask confused. I was starting to think this was some kind of state of mind where I was talking to myself... "It is a state of mind", she repl- what?
Can she read my mind??
"Yes, I can. I guess it's part of sharing the same existence... It's strange really", she says, always standing sideways looking at that black endless void around us.
"Why can't I read yours though?", I ask. "Because I'm not allowing it. You see, when I said our realities are different, I mean you and I belong to different worlds, different universes", she replies.
"D-Different universes?!", I don't really understand. "It's a concept you don't seem to be aware of huh...? Well, it's better if we don't go into details of that. What you need to know is the reason we're here right now, having this conversation", she replies. I wish I could be so calm and collected too.
"Believe me, that's the last way I'd describe myself haha... Anyway, the reason you're here now is because I'm a bit... Sensitive to certain stuff and I felt an strange interference, like when you're listening to the radio and it suddenly starts buzzing as if you we're driving through a dark tunnel", she explains and pauses, I guess to gather the right words.
"Whatever it was, it was so strong it reached me despite how far away we are from each other. I'm trying to understand it right now but from what I could figure out from that... It's like some kind of message...", she says, seemingly deep in thought.
"A messa-

"That was... That voice!", she says as the pain suddenly stops again. "Natsuki... That was Natsuki's voice!!", through the pain, buzzing and voices I was able to recognize the voice of that pained scream too.
What is going on?? Where's Natsuki??
I need to protect her!!
"It seems we share the same goal", my other self says. "I... I've been doing all within my power to get the necessary strength... But I just can't get to be of help to her... She keeps protecting me and putting herself in danger for my sake. Everytime I have the chance to fight by her side, I hesitate and something else takes my place... Or she just runs off all alone", I explain my shameful situation.
"I see... This may be related to this strange message but we don't have time to connect the pieces of this puzzle now. Time is relative where we're now. I can feel your desire for power, that power that can protect our beloved Natsuki", she says. Wait.
"You...", I almost forgot she can read my mind. "Yes, I love Natsuki too, more than anything, just like you. Don't be jealous though, my Natsuki and your Natsuki are like us, the same existence but part of different worlds. I love my Natsuki, you love your Natsuki. In this infinity, Yuri loves Natsuki, always", those words sounds so right.
"I'll help you go back and I'll lend you something that may help you out in our eternal cause, I really don't need it as I am now", she says as she finally turns my way.
...
Half of her looks like me, but the other half is... Pitch black, almost lost in this dark void, a glowing purple orb shines where her other eye should be. Overall, the best word I can describe her with is...
"Monster", she says. "S-Sorry", I should be scared? I don't know but I don't really care now.
"Well said. You'll be back in a few seconds... If seconds mean anything here... Be well and good luck, we may see each other again", and with that this dark world soon fades to white.

The gym.
I'm back.
That's...!!
As I lift my head and look ahead, my hearts starts beating again and my blood begins to boil.
That red woman, stomping my Natsuki into the floor.
Cuts, bruises and blood all over her beautiful body.
But the worst of all, that red blade she almost sliced me with, now about to stab her chest.
I won't allow it.
I won't allow it!
I WON'T ALLOW IT!!
I don't know where it came from but this scythe I now have in my hands as I stand up only has one purpose.
"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!", the blade starts digging into her flesh and that's just about enough to fully piss me off!!
"HYAAAAAAAH!!!", with all I have I throw the scythe at that red demon, it rotates like a fan and flies her way, the rib is what strikes her and gets her off my precious girl at last, which sadly leaves her in one piece still.
I don't know how but as I raise my hand the scythe floats and immediately rewinds its way back to my hands.
"Natsuki!", I shout and she looks at me with those sparkly beautiful magenta eyes I've been waiting for at last.
"If anyone even thinks to cause you harm...", the power I feel running in my veins ensures me I can state this absolute fact.
"I WILL UNLEASH HELL UPON THEM!".
