Zane;damnit it's my fault for Ikazuchi and horobi getting hurt
Zane said as he covered his face with his hands

Azu:Zane it's not your fault
Azu said as she walked into her room and sat next to him

Zane;but it I-
Zane gets cut off by azu hugging him

Azu;Zane for now we have to continue with help everyone alright so please don't blame yourself anymore
Azu said as she holds Zane

Zane nods as he hugs azu back
Zane;alright azu I won't
Zane said as he holds her

Azu let's go of Zane and pats his shoulder
Azu;now than it's time for you to go on patrol
Azu said as she gets up

Zane chuckled
Zane;yea yea
Zane said as he gets up and grabs his driver

Azu;also grab some seafood on the way back k
Azu said as she goes take care of Ikazuchi and horobi

Zane;yeah got it
Zane said as he heads to his bike

(3 minutes later)

Zane was driving around the city helping people and stopping any crime that was happening but it gets interrupted by Sara who was in her zero one armor

Sara;looks like today's the day that you fall along with your friends
Sara said as she takes a stance

Zane gets off his bike and looks around and sees that no ones around

Zane's mind;hm looks like everyone evacuated before she even showed up
Zane thought as he takes out his shinning hopper key

Sara;oh yeah by the way thanks for the new key
Sara said as she pulled out a copy of shining hopper

Zane;of course you'd copied it you always do that
Zane said as he put his key into the driver as Sara goes the same

Zane/Sara;henshin!!!
They said as they charged towards each other as they equipped their shinning hopper armor

(Sara's form)

As they get closer they disappear with electricity surrounding the area as they appear than disappearing....as it goes for 2 minutes Sara crashes to the ground as Zane stands where he was at before with a few wounds on him

Zane;really it been what 3 days an already you haven't figured it out god no wonder you lose all the progrise keys
Zane said adding salt to her wounds

Sara;how how can you be faster than me I'm zero one now I have your power so why am I losing to you!!!
Sara said as she punches the ground forming a crater

Zane;it's over there's no point fighting anymore
Zane said as he goes to his bike

As he does a felt something sharp stab into his back...Zane turned a bit to see Sara with her attach calibur stabbing his back

Sara;just die!
Sara said as she pulled her blade out casuing Zane to stumble a bit

Zane tries to gain his bearings but Sara kept on slashing him to the point where Zane's armor started to fall off

Zane;damnit I let my guard down
Zane said as the upper part of the armor breaks off

Zane gets knocked to the ground as he starts to lose consciousness
Zane;azu
Zane said as he faints due to his wounds

Sara;no ones going to save you now!!!
Sara said as she was about to end Zane's life but someone kicks her away

Sara stumbled but gains her bearing and stares at the person who stopped her
Sara;who the hell are you
Sara asked as she put her shining hopper key into her attach calibur

?;im someone dear to Zane but you can call me ark
The figure said as she kneels next to Zane

Sara was shocked to hear what this person said
Sara;no your probably just some faker
Sara said as she tries to attack her

As Sara got closer the ark grabs her leg before slamming her into the ground than stands back up

Ark;for now I'll let you live but remember this you're nothing but a weak brat who blames others for your mistakes
Ark said as she kicks Sara into a building

Ark grabs Zane and disappears as a fog of malice covering

(Zane's pov)

Zane groans as he opens his eyes to he was in his room
Zane;what the hell happened?
Zane asked as he tries to sit up but Jin and naki pushes him back onto the bed

Jin;hey Zane stay in bed
Jin said as he goes back to reading the hungry caterpillar

Naki;you've been hurt badly
Naki said as he looks towards Zane

Zane;really I can't remember what happened
Zane said as he puts his hand over his face

Naki;Don't worry about it for now just rest
Naki said as he and Jin take a seat next to Zane making sure he is alright

Outside Zane's room horobi and ark were listening in as they looked towards each other

Horobi;you know now that you've shown yourself they won't stop until they destroy you
Horobi said as he looked towards ark

Ark takes off her driver as a dog of malice covered her....the dog disappears it shows azu standing where ark was at

Azu;I'll simply destroy them if they try plus they hurt my Zane I won't hold back if I fight them
