Chapter 22: [Name] vs Ryūko
[Name] and his three new partners were currently trying to find the boat that he had heard Ryuko and the others had been staying on. "Are you sure this is the right way?" Zero asked looking at him.
"I'm pretty sure this is the right way." [Name] said looking at him.
"Hey isn't that them?" Xerxes asked pointing to a rather large boat in the middle of the ocean.
"It has to be." [Name] said as they started up the engine to the speed boat and ran off to the boat they saw in the distance.
Once they got their a ladder was lowered so they could climb up. Once they reached the top they found Satsuki there looking at them. "Don't look at me like that." Zero said being the first to climb up.
She had a shocked expression on her face no one talked to her like that. Next she saw two twins come up after him. As they got onto the deck of the ship they stared at the girl that was in front of them. "What?" Xerxes asked.
His counterpart then finished he statement. "Do we have something on our face?" He asked and went to go look for a bathroom. The last however was the least surprising [Name] The older brother and son of some people they had on the ship. However he was carrying a large amount of luggage behind him. About four suitcases in one hand.
"Hey [Name] Be careful with those things I'm going to need them in tact for my next set of experiments." Zero said looking at him.
"Yes I know fragile and important all that nonsense." [Name] said stepping onto the boat. He then looked at the female figure in front of him and spoke. "Oh no please don't offer to help or anything." He said walking past the figure in front of him.
"So where will we be staying?" Zero asked making his way into a local room. "Here looks good." He said as he shut the door. [Name] let out a sigh of discomfort and walked to the room Zero had picked place his bags on the ground.
[Name] of course after he did this walked around the ship and found everyone but two people. Mako his younger sister and Ryuko the girl he had fallen in love with. After almost a whole hour of searching he finally decided to approach someone he knew would know where she was.
He approached the girl Ryuko had tried to kill and looked at the male that was following her Ira. "Ira leave us I have something I need to ask Satsuki and would appreciate it if no one was around to hear." He said looking at her.
"Yes I . . . understand." He said leaving the room.
"How'd you get him to obey you?" Satsuki asked looking at him.
"Shut up." He stated looking at her. "Where's Mako?" He asked looking at her.
"She is in her room most likely sleeping." She stated looking at him.
"Alright then where's Ryuko-chan." [Name] stated looking at her. She seemed a bit stunned at first but then slowly went to speak only for a loud explosion and the ship vibrating to take her off guard. "Well it would seem as if she is on the deck of the ship." Satsuki said.
[Name]'s eyes narrowed as he ran off towards the deck to see what she had meant. When he got their he found Zero and the twins already there looking at her. This was when [Name] saw Ryuko wearing Junketsu. "Why is Ryuko wearing Junketsu?" [Name] asked out loud.
Ira was the one to answer being the one to look after his little sister while he was gone. "She went crazy a while ago although the Junketsu thing is a little new." He said looking at him.
"That's not good." [Name] said looking at her.
"Oh Satsuki where are you hiding?" She said looking around.
[Name] averted his attention to the twins and said. "Buy me some time." The nodded and activated their pieces of armor.
"So you ask Koko-chan out yet?" [Name] said looking at him.
"I don't think now's the best time to ask her out." The larger male said a blush staining his face. It was quiet a couple of seconds before Ira spoke again. "You really think they'll be able to beat her?" He asked looking at [Name].
"Oh not a chance." He said looking at them.
"Then why'd you send them to fight her?" Ira asked as on of the twins came crashing down between them his boots turning back into regular boots. [Name] calmly walked over to Xerxes and removed said piece of clothing.
"If I'm going to fight her I'll need all the pieces of the steam dragon armor to make sure I don't die." [Name] said looking at him.
"Why not just remove your ring?" Ira asked looking at him.
"Well if I remove my ring I won't be able to hear what Hideo is saying." He said looking at him.
"So you want me to help with this fight?" Hideo asked inside his ring.
'Yeah I don't know what's going on but just by looking in her eyes I can tell something is wrong with Ryuko-chan.' He thought back to his counterpart.
Hideo let out a sigh and once again spoke. "So what do you want me to do?" He asked looking at him.
'Well you got anything that can help see what's wrong with her?' [Name] asked looking at the ring.
"Yeah but in order for it to be in anyway accurate the decay metal ring will have to be touching her skin." Hideo said.
'So basically I'm going to be hitting her in the face?' [Name] said looking at the ring.
"Yeah I know sucks right." Hideo said mocking him slightly.
"Alright now where's the other?" [Name] asked looking at sky to see the other twin come crashing to the deck. He didn't move so [Name] took this chance to also get his piece of the armor.
While he was walking across the deck he also slipped on his gloves as well as the boots he had taken from Xerxes. When he final got to the last remaining piece of armor he looked at it for a less then a second and took it off of him.
Once he had all the armor pieces he looked at the girl the was now approaching him. "So you're next huh." She said looking at him.
"It would appear so Ryuko-chan." [Name] then remembered what Hideo had said looking at his hand he grunted and removed one of his gloves so the ring would be exposed during the fight.
He then activated the rest of his armor each piece connecting to the other. It gained a blood red look and a symbol appeared on the chest although because the last piece was missing the symbol looked a little faded. [Name] then approached Ryuko and looked at her.
"You ready?" He asked looking at her.
"Yeah." She said as she dashed forward and tried to cut him with her half of the scissors. [Name] wasn't stupid the only part of him that would have been able to take a swing from her scissors would have been his decay metal ring and that is an extremely small space that could have consequences if he missed.
"What's the matter can't bring yourself to hit me?" She asked looking at him.
'I just know I'm going to feel like an asshole in the morning.' [Name] thought as he swung forward and connected with her face. It sent her back a few feet and she rushed forward and each time she did [Name] would land a blow with her face.
'Are you getting anything Hideo?' [Name] asked knowing it was only a matter of time before Ryuko found out what he was doing.
"Yeah it seems like that Ragyo chick did something to awaken the part of her that are made of life fibers leaving her a highly hostile to those who aren't made of life fibers or to those who wish to stop life fibers." Hideo said as [Name] barely dodged an attack from Ryuko that was meant to take his head off.
'So what do I do about it?' [Name] mentally asked looking at the girl in front of him.
"Well to put it simply there are only a few different ways to deal with this." Came Hideo's response.
'Well hurry up and tell me!' [Name] mentally yelled leaving the teen he used to call friend with a busted eardrum.
"Well the first option is to force the life fibers to go back to sleep which won't happen as long as she's wearing Junketsu. The second is that we have to tame them which could be difficult in her current state but it's not impossible. The third option is that we will have to make her go throw an experience so traumatic that she'll never want anything to do with Life fibers ever again. Take your pick." Hideo said smirking already knowing which one he was going to pick.
'I think I'll go with option two.' [Name] said looking at his ring.
"Yeah well you can put your other glove back on. You won't need the ring for this." He said and [Name] nodded putting his other glove back on. It activated and instantly connected to the other pieces of his armor. Now that all the armor was connected it went though a change.
The shoulders of the armor became white and looked as if it was just a little hot. The helmet also went through some changes with it gaining a new design the hole where the should have been closed up looking to be razor sharp teeth. The most noticeable change though was the back two large wings shot out. White with red on it that looked as if blood had been splattered on it. The symbol on his chest also became clear to see. It was now a white flame with the tip and the bottom both separating forming two spirals and four drills that formed an X be hind it.
"Now let's see about taming that wild side of you Ryuko-chan." [Name] stated as the eyes hole he had started to leak purple flames from it.
