Hey everyone long time no write. I'm sorry that this chapter took so long to write but I wanted to reach a final conclusion one in which I won't be scrambling my head around so with that being said enjoy the long overdue story. Also apologies if the chapters on the next 2 chapters of Season 1 become short. I'm not too good at making action scenes and extending them to make them more visualizing.

Haruka's POV

As soon as I heard noises coming from outside I knew that they had arrived and so I got everything ready including my newest doll.

Haruka: Oh how I do enjoy testing out my new dolls.

Hibari:...(I have to sever this control, and hurry over to Lucian's side!)

I could've sworn I saw Hibari struggle a bit, but that shouldn't be possible since she was under my control.

Haruka: Struggle all you want but you can't break free from my control.

Asuka's POV

After thinking it over I came to the conclusion I'll just knock them out hopefully everyone else is thinking this as well. As I continued upstairs I jumped out of the way before two kunai's hit the stairs where I was at. A slow clap was made as Homura appeared before me.

Homura: So you finally showed yourself congratulations on making it this far. But this time you won't be leaving here alive.

I then felt an insane amount of bloodlust coming off of her it felt so strong that I wanted to run away in fear I was scared of her. But Lucian's words gave me the push that I needed to stand my ground not just that but the will to rescue Hibari and the scroll was far more important.

Asuka: (No matter what happens I can't back down now! I have all of my friends with me I am the sword that fights and the shield that protects my friends. I Asuka will not run in fear to evil!)

Homura: (The look in her eyes changed, this should be fun.) So I hope you won't bore me with useless techniques that you've demonstrated so far.

Asuka:...

I quickly charged at her swords ready at hand, and Homura readied herself as well. Our swords clashed against one another. We jumped back away from each other as our fight began. Each of our strikes clashed with one another as the sound of metal clashed throughout the area. We weren't giving each other the upper hand otherwise it could be either her or me that goes down.

Homura: Hhhrrrrraaaaaaaaaggghhhh!!!!

Asuka: Ngh! Toriyah! (I need to end this fast before things get worse. Okay time to think on this one...let's see what can I can do.)

I kept striking at her openings but she quickly protected those open areas and delivered some strikes of her own causing me to take some damage. I scanned the area around me only to find nothing which would benefit me to use against her.

Asuka: (Great now what do I do? I can't keep attacking forever and I can't expect backup to show up so soon...hmm I guess I can use my own shinobi barrier and trap her within mine while I escape from there quickly make my way to the top and get the scroll and Hibari.)

I jumped towards Homura and used my shinobi barrier to trap her within.

Homura: Hmph...trapping me here won't solve anything you know.

Asuka: (All I have to do is knock her out and find either Hibari or the scroll.)

I got my swords ready as did she and we began to clash with one another, sparks flew as both of our swords clashed until we locked each other down.

Homura: Heh you're at least becoming more competent than last time.

An idea soon formed into my head and I prepared myself in order to make the plan work.

Asuka: Enough games, let's get serious.

I immediately went into frantic mode and using the burst in speed I used the handle to hit Homura's stomach and quickly teleported out of the leaving her trapped in there. However as soon as I warped out of there I could hear dozens of monstrous howls and parts of the school shaking I was starting to get worried about Lucian

Asuka: Lucian I hope you're all right.

I quickly made my way to the top while sending a mental prayer hoping that he'll come out alive.

Ikaruga's POV

Shot after shot she kept firing with no intention of stopping her assault. Most of them I either had to parry or dodge my way around in order to avoid her line of fire. However strangely enough as the more this fight kept going I could feel something pulsating within me. Something that felt familiar a power boost but unlike when I went berserk with darkness this time it felt like that time when I confronted Lucian's darkness within the abandoned school.

Ikaruga: (I can sense it once again...that feeling once more...no time to hesitate I gotta strike now!)

As I sliced through her projectiles I quickly jumped upwards and raised my sword above only for her to guard it and push me back. That was when she noticed something.

Yomi: What's this?

She then held onto her claymore tighter and began to push me back, making her charge towards me until she slammed her claymore on my sword.

Yomi: So who's gonna save you now? Certainly not your parents, friends nor your beloved prince. He's most likely being consumed by the yomas right now.

Ikaruga: No he isn't! He's still out there fighting and he'll come to help us out cause we're a team!

With enough force I manage to push Yomi back and the golden aura enveloped me just like it did before and the symbol of the one winged phoenix emerged on the sides of my sleeves. Yomi could only stare in shock at what she just witnessed.

Yomi: What in the? What's that?

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Umineko: Justice

Ikaruga: A new power in order to defeat you with Yomi. I don't know why it is that you hate me so much but what I do know is that with this power you can't beat me.

Yomi: Tchrr...I hate, hate, hate, hate, hate you so much you have no idea how much I resent you! The Rich! And every other high status person who looks down upon the poor and less fortunate! MY parents gave me the little food they have left knowing they would starve themselves to death, big businesses never did anything right for my family, me nor anyone else within my hometown! RRRRRRAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!

A tremendous amount of negativity began to overflow from Yomi and she became enveloped in the same aura as Lucian had when the yoma seal was active.

Ikaruga: (Oh no if she has the yoma seal...then that would mean everyone...damn!)

I quickly made handsigns and used one of Lucian's techniques. However I didn't anticipate what happened next.

Ikaruga: (Fire Release: Fireball!)

As a fireball was aimed straight at her she only cleaved it in half only for her to react negatively to her.

Yomi: Ngh! Gah! Wh-what's happening?! Don't tell it's just like last time!

I watched as the fireball began to consume her as she began screaming in agony however I realized that the fire wasn't burning her alive it was purifying the negative aura she had on her. As the screams died out so did the fire, and she was crouched on the ground holding herself in pain.

Yomi: H-how am I still?

Ikaruga: The flames purified your yoma seal...after hearing on what you said there's certainly a lot you don't know about me. For one you have no idea how lucky you were to have loving parents, who cared about and raised you I wished I had a family who loved me as much as yours did.

Yomi: Why're you telling me all this?

Ikaruga: So you can understand where exactly I'm coming from. In actuality I never had a family to begin with, I was adopted because my father was forced to adopt because his own son didn't have the skills needed to be a shinobi. My name is Ikaruga and that's all that ever was to myself...my name that's it. Hopefully you learn something from this. Goodbye.

Music ends

I dispelled the barrier and ran on ahead but slowed down thinking back on how Lucian was behaving before he jumped off from the cliff in order to be a distraction, but then again he would want me to keep going until we got both Hibari and the scroll.

Should Ikaruga go back and help Lucian?

Yes

or

No?

Katsuragi's POV

When I dragged Hikage within my shinobi barrier we were in a wrestling ring. After being defeated by her a lot, this time I swore I would be the one who wins.

Hikage: So you've set this whole ring up for your own funeral huh? How predictable of you.

Katsuragi: Heh not this time stoic face. Speaking of which I always did wonder do you ever show emotion?

Hikage: Emotions are pointless on the battlefield. All that matters is victory. I don't even care for if I feel any sense of emotion. All of those things are pointless. To be a shinobi you must discard your emotions and always be calm & calculated no matter what.

Katsuragi: But where's the fun in that? How can you not feel anything from joy to sadness. How can you live a life like that?

Hikage:...Back when I was an orphan other kids used to make fun of me for not showing any type of emotion and one night I decided to run away from that orphanage. A couple of days went by scavenging for food, living life on the streets, and then soon a leader of a gang took me in, and from there I experienced...happiness. But it all changed one day, years later where I found my adoptive mother's corpse. From there all sense of emotion died right there, I found out who killed her and I murdered each and every one of them using her knife. After that I then met up with Suzune-sensei and well the rest is history. Does that answer your question?

I didn't know how to respond to that, but in a way I can kind of relate to her. I saw her getting her knife ready and began to slice and stab me as I quickly dodged each and every strike. When she thrusted her hand forward thinking she got me in my opening I quickly grabbed her arm and threw her over me sending her to the other side of the ring. I jumped out and thrusted my right leg forward hoping to dive kick into her but she got up and dodged the attack in which she managed to slice my arm. I looked to where she cut it and saw it was a minor cut nothing too major. I ran towards her and began to punch and kick her however she parried all of my attacks and pushed me back.

Hikage: *sigh* This is all pointless maybe it's time I stopped playing around and kill you now.

From her I could sense an overwhelming surge of evil, and from her manifested a purple lightning like aura. Her movements became fast like a snake leaving me with so many shallow cuts around my arms and legs making me fall quickly until she was right in front of me and kicked me back.

Hikage: Well I can say for certain this has been boring. Goodbye.

Katsuragi: (Oh man this is gonna be a lot more challenging than I thought. There is one thing I can do but...I don't have full mastery over it. Worst case scenario I'll die but I guess it's now or never!)

I took a deep breath and exhaled.

Katsuragi: (All right Lucian it's time I put your training to good use! Wind Release: Wind Sense!)

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Touhou Double Focus OST: Wind God Girl

I could feel a small amount of wind being generated from me, and Hikage began to rush towards me with her knife however I slapped her hand which held the knife and tossed her back into her own area. I struggled to stand up and began to walk towards her as she quickly got up and began to stab and slice me but all of it failed to hit me causing her to become angry.

Hikage:...Rrgh quit dodging my attacks!

Katsuragi: (About time she felt something.) So tell me what're you feeling now?

Hikage: Rrgh angry and frustrated! I don't know how you're making me feel something when those emotions died a long time ago!

Katsuragi: That's the thing emotions can't die, nor can you discard them we aren't programs. We're only human.

Hikage: Tchrrragh!

She quickly began to produce lightning in her knife, and began to move faster however thanks to Wind Sense being active I can sense where the attacks were coming from and I could deliver quick counterattacks of my own, as she staggered back I got behind and performed a suplex knocking her out. After assuring my victory over her I released the technique and I instantly felt the drainage all at once.

Katsuragi: Haaah...haah..I did it...I won!

Music ends

I dispelled the barrier and began to limp my way to a secure area to recover my strength.

Katsuragi: (Wind Sense...I can't believe I managed to push it this far...don't worry everyone I'll join up with you soon. Lucian thank you for teaching me this technique.)

Yagyu's POV

As Katsuragi dragged Hikage into her shinobi barrier I heard the sound of gunfire in which I immediately reacted to by opening my umbrella and spinning it around fast. The bullets were all deflected until I heard an explosion which collapsed the floor under me.

Yagyu: Woah!

As I fell down more floors I reached of what appeared to be the basement or prison cell from there I heard a very familiar voice.

Mirai: Nice of you to drop by.

I dismissed that pun entirely for all I wanted to get was either HIbari or the scroll. I aimed my umbrella towards her while also summoning forth ink kunais ready to incapacitate her.

Yagyu: Where is Hibari and the scroll?

???: Hibari? Oh you mean my newest doll.

Yagyu: What?

I quickly stepped aside to the left to avoid a punch, and to my shock I couldn't believe who just tried to attack me.

Yagyu: Hibari!

As I said her name she gave no reaction all she did was continue to attack me and I had to dodge all of her attacks.

Yagyu: Hibari what's with you? Why're you attacking me?

Haruka: Perhaps it's to what I said before about her being my doll.

When I heard it I couldn't believe it that is until I remembered something that Lucian said before I got reckless with my rescue attempt.

(Lucian: DO YOU HONESTLY BELIEVE THAT YOU'RE STRONG ENOUGH TO BEAT THEM? THINK RATIONALLY ON THIS OTHERWISE YOU'RE GOING HEAD FIRST INTO YOUR OWN DAMN DEATH DUMBASS!!!! WHAT THE HELL DO YOU EXPECT TO DO ONCE YOU FIND HIBARI?! THINK OF WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN IT'S FIVE AGAINST ONE OR WORSE SIX AGAINST ONE. So stand down otherwise I will snap your damn neck. Do I make myself clear?!)

Yagyu: (I can't believe I tried to do something as reckless as that, and as much as I fear to say it but his intuition is spot on. This really is a 3 on 1. However from the looks of things this might be a 2 on 1 since that puppeteer is using Hibari like a puppet, and Mirai can just shoot bullets main problem being Hibari getting injured or worse dead.)

Mirai: So I hope you're ready to die.

Mirai quickly began to fire at me and I had top run away from the bullets however Hibari ran at me and punched my stomach knocking me back to where the bullets are being fired.

Yagyu: (Not good!)

I opened my umbrella to shield myself from the bullets however they began to pierce through it.

Mirai: After our last encounter I came prepared and from the looks of things you didn't.

Yagyu: (Damn these two are powerful! At this point I think I might die.)

Hibari began to run towards me and quickly deliver a combination of punches and kicks which then led to her kicking me towards Mirai as she began to hit me with her own umbrella. As the endless onslaught continued it became too much and I fainted. Before I passed out I could've sworn that I saw a tear fall out of Hibari's left eye.

Hibari's POV

I couldn't believe what I had done. I witnessed Yagyu being defeated by both Mirai and myself and it's all because Haruka was controlling me. I regretted being a burden before but now...now I might've just killed her. I wanted to scream angrily at myself for being such a weakling, all of that training and for what to be used against my own friend. I hated it, I want nothing more than to beat the ones who did this. I could feel my anger growing to the point where I nothing could hold me back and that's when I felt it. An overwhelming electric aura surrounding me.

Haruka & Mirai: !

Haruka: What in the?!

Mirai: What's going on?

Hibari: You two are gonna pay!

Dragonball Legends OST: Shallot vs Frieza

I instantly grabbed Mirai and threw her towards Haruka in which she caught Mirai and set her down.

Haruka: H-how did she break out of it?

Mirai: Don't focus on that! Focus on killing her!

Haruka: R-right!

They both came towards Yagyu until I used one of his techniques.

Hibari: Lightning Release: Shock Shield!

Those two got electrocuted when they stepped in range of the shield forcing them to get pushed back.

Mirai: Tchr! That's it take this! Valkyrie!

From her umbrella she began to fire cannons at me in which I grabbed Yagyu and put her in safe area avoiding the attack.

Haruka: Secret Ninja Art: Death Kiss!

A heart shaped attack soon followed after and I ran away from that spot to go straight towards Mirai and began punching her directly in the face sending her flying towards the cells knocking her out.

Hibari: (One down, one more to go!)

Haruka: !

I calmly walked towards her as she began to walk back in fear.

Hibari: You not only kidnapped me and made me into your puppet, you put Lucian through severe pain, and caused me to hurt my friend. I won't forgive you!

I charged at her delivering a series of rapid punches before I clenched my fist as lightning enveloped into my left hand and in one punch I punched Haruka's face sending her flying towards the stairs. After looking around and I saw no one else I calmed myself down and ran towards Yagyu.

Music ends

Hibari: Yagyu!

I then lifted her up and began to shake her lightly.

Hibari: Yagyu wake up please!

After that she started to make some sounds and began to wake up.

Yagyu: Mmngh...Hi..bari?

Hibari: Ah thank goodness you're awake.

Yagyu: Ungh...where's Haruka and Mirai?

Hibari: Don't worry I defeated both of them.

Yagyu: I see thank goodness, also Hibari...

Hibari: ?

Yagyu: Congratulations I'm proud of you and Lucian would be too.

When Yagyu said his name I instantly remembered what it was I had to do.

Hibari: Yagyu we have to get Lucian. He's in great danger.

Yagyu: Why? Do you know what happened to him?

Hibari: It's mainly just a feeling but I'm pretty sure he's in severe danger right now.

Yagyu: All right then let's go. But wait! We still haven't gotten any news if we got the scroll or not.

Hibari: The scroll is at the top of of the school, we can go there after we find Lucian.

Yagyu: All right, let's go! Ghh!

As Yagyu tried to stand up she couldn't because of the amount of damage she's taken.

Yagyu: Dammit it all! Sorry Hibari but I'll only get in your way for now just go on without me get to Lucian quickly and help everyone else.

Hibari: No way am I leaving you here!

Yagyu: You have to! You have no idea who else would need help as well just go and leave me here to recover I'll be fine...I promise.

Hibari:...

Should Hibari leave Yagyu and go to Lucian or have Hibari help Yagyu and go to Lucian?

Yes

or

No

Sylvia's POV

Sylvia: Airi stay here and monitor Lucian see if any new developments arise when he's in that yoma transformation.

Airi: Understood Milady.

After seeing the carnage that unfolded I teleported to the top of the castle and met up with Dogen.

Sylvia: So what do you intend to do now?

Dogen: Hehehe! Behold the scrolls of Hanzo and Hebijo are radiating with the powers of yin and yang with these two I'll become unstoppable. Both Hanzo and Hebijo are providing the scrolls with immense power and soon that power will be mine!

Sylvia: I see well then if things go south I'll leave you with the yoma's power (not to mention the Hebijo Elite 5 will soon be mine for me to command.)

Dogen: Thanks to your help I will attain power unlike any other to finally destroy the shinobi council!

Sylvia: (Still won't be enough to stop them, speaking of which I need to start initiating the plan to take over the Village of Rabbits, for there lies an ancient relic.)

Well that is it for now, voting on the option will last for one week. After that I can create the next chapter and this time you won't have to wait as long. Thank you guys so much for reading and stay safe!
