Fight between "The Demons"

A sound of metals clashing, grunts both of the girls roams every section of the hall, one kneeling exhausted and the other one standing with her glory.

Asahi never expected that Saega would be much stronger than their last encounter. The intensity of their fight damages the hall. Asahi's right shoulder stabbed, blood fell in her hand and breathing heavily.

"Is that all you've got?" Saega taunts Asahi.

"(Grabbing her right shoulder,) don't steal my line…" She provokes Saega even though she is injured.

Saega laughed at her, felt pity for Asahi, walked towards injured girl and lured her hand,

"(Choke Asahi's neck.) Know your place, you are no match for me."

She lift Asahi only with one hand and summons a short sword in her left hand,

"I thought you were the strongest amongst the others, but you are the same. Just like the others, you are Weak! Just like your ancestors, desire makes you weak!"

Saega swings her sword towards Asahi's neck, but suddenly a golden light flares beside her eyes, distracting her vision. She let go of Asahi and jumps back followed by a heavy blow from Ai and Fukushima that tries to hit her.

Asahi's body pushed back far from the blow, before she can recognise somebody holding her body and take her into safe place far away from Saega,

"What the…." Asahi was shocked by the sudden ambush.

"Glad you're safe! I thought you were already dead!" The girl talks to Asahi,

"W-what…. What are you thinking?! You could kill yourself-"

"Idiot! Instead of worrying about us, worry about your own skin! Look at you!" The girl pointed at her shoulder.

"Just a scratch, no big deal. Anyway, she's fast! My speed couldn't follow her. Unless I push myself harder-" she talks while she tries to stand, her feet couldn't hold her body and immediately fall to her knees,

"Take a rest for a bit, take care of your wounds. I'll be dealing with her." The girl step

in front of Asahi,

"Sanna…"

"If she is fast enough for you, then she'll never catch up with the speed of sound… My speciality!" Sanna's eyes glows green light and she transforms herself into her first stage astral armor.

"First shift?! You don't even use the bracelet?! Sanna…" Asahi is shocked by Sanna's transformation,

"(Pulling her hand up pose holding a pistol.) Asahi, come help me after you are done!"

After that word, Sanna's body flashes a light elemental blitz, Saega looked at Sanna we're ready to charge her in any time,

"Sanna… To think you actually fought me, you got some nerve?" She slightly smiled to her,

"I wonder why you're deceiving us… But I had to thank you for saving my life back then…" she said.

Sanna disappears, moving as fast as sound. An supersonic boom blast in all people's ears distracting their hearing, but Saega quickly knows where Sanna is, she turns back,

"Distortion shot!"

Sanna shouted her newly found signature move, shooting an elemental energy from her pistol, moving faster alongside a blitz that flashes towards Saega.

Saega slightly flinched but she intended to block the shot with her bare hand.

"What a powerful shot…" Saega was impressed by Sanna's signature move.

She jumps toward Sanna, with a short sword in both of her hands. Smiled evilly stared death onto her eyes,

"(Rises her eyebrows.) So… fast

…" Sanna tries to evade her but the momentum doesn't fit for her to move anywhere.

Ai pushes Sanna, moves her out of Saega's way. Ai exchanges blows with Saega with fast moving swordsman skill while Fukushima shoots an elemental ball from below. Saega couldn't move an inch and got hitted. But doesn't effectively stop her from hitting A and swings her toward Fukushima with her kick, blasting them away.

Suddenly Asahi and Sanna jump towards Saega while she in the air, charges forward with a powerful fist.

"Unexpected, but not enough!" Saega shouted letting go an darkness energy towards both Asahi and Sanna,

"Negative energy suddenly rises! Asahi! Sanna! Get out of there!!!" A girl with a pink hair shouted from far away,

Knowing it will be bad Asahi kicks Sanna to pushes both of them from Saega,

Swallowed by her own dark energy, suddenly a red glowing light bright inside the darkness, just like an eyes that glows red. The darkness that floats in the air going down to the ground and fills the ground with its dark mist. Revealing Saega inside already changed her figure into something more demonic.

Her dress changed color into black and gold with less red accent, and changing skin like a snake envelopes her both hands and claws in her fingers, her pupils add a red gradient, The outer part of the eye changes black, grows black 9 tails on her back.

Her appearance drastically changed into 'kitsune humanoid' with a dark and demonic power.

"Inversed Shift! Asahi! Sanna! Get ready, don't let your guard down!" Ai shouted to them informs the changes is Inversed Shift of Saega.

Saega stares at Asahi,

"Honestly I don't want to show you this. But you forced me to…" Saega said.

"Now you show us your real face!" Asahi taunts her.

"Saega…" disbelieved by Saega's look.

Without an anticipation, Asahi already fell to the ground, screamed and coughed blood…

Sanna even couldn't see what happen, she thrown away until crashes into the wall,

Still reading the motion, Ai was distracted by Saega's move she let her guard down and forming a shield from the rubble around her to prevent unexpected attacks, yet the shield wasn't enough to hold the attacks. Nearly stabbed by Saega's claws, Fukushima appears in front of Saega, grabbing her hand and swinging her away.

The two were the last standing to face Saega. Both manage to keep up with Saega's fast attack, while Sanna hardly tried to stand, and Asahi loses her consciousness

—------

A voice of fierce fight echoes in her ears, but only a pitch black sight she only can see. Wondering what happened, she tries to open her eyes but only darkness surrounds her.

"You can't stop her… No one can…" a girl's voice echoes from every direction.

"You… How in the world did you sound so calm?" Realized the voice is familiar.

"Because I know you will see me again. This time, you come to me…" The girl recalled a past event.

She sees the same figure from her last time seeing her when yesterday night she was in her home's backyard.

"You don't even use the 'gift' that I gave you last time… How sad… "

She now can see her clearly, still with her anxiety and fear, she tries to fight it,

"Gift?" She asked.

"Yes, Asahi.. Gift, that allows you to achieve more control of your power without losing yourself. I provide you some of my power for you, but you only did use it in a failed attempt because of The Prince's interference." Her other self said.

"The Prince? Takaya?" She asked.

"Indeed. You probably already noticed it. But that is tomorrow's problem to solve."

"Saega Onami, Reincarnation of Demon, originally an angel and casted out from heaven. Eventually finds herself in hell, commands them, torture, leads her legions to invade back the realm of heaven…"

"But got distracted by the hell's king, for all demons would help her if she agrees to be the king's bride…"

"Our ancestors,The first Forgotten Princess, opens a portal between hell and earth, meets the fallen angel that already loses her hopes and dreams and offers a better life as a free soul."

"A sin that can never be redeemed. That's why our ancestors, our power is feared and many wish for our death because we are indeed more cruel than the demon itself."

The girl talks about the past that Asahi can ever imagine how it is possible,

"How do you know about that?" Asahi asked.

"Whoever gets the power of The Forgotten, they can see the memories of the past reincarnated. Even if there's no evidence, memories always remain forever." She said the unknown ability of The Forgotten.

"Why didn't I see such a thing?"

An obvious question that can be asked by Asahi since she was also the reincarnation of the current Forgotten.

"That is a part of my gift… You will be my body, my hands and feet to life, while I give you a way to live, to fight, and give you a free use of this power without having these hideous memories flashing in your head." she revealed what the gift actually means.

"But I'll let you see a bit of memories that can be useful for you. Be thankful…" she smiled at her.

"Seems like I'm a puppet on string." Asahi said coldly.

"You freely choose your own life. But today is the day you will decide." The girl said that with a serious tone.

"Decide?"

The girl walks to her side,

"You see, by holding this power and memories from you is a pain in the ass for me, and since you know the consequences if you use this power too much it will affect your human brain, make you lose yourself to the power and eventually go mad."

"But if we're working together, things might change, but with several costs."

"One, you will have these memories flashing on your head, you will see everything in the past, but it may give you an idea how to use this power properly like I did."

"Two, I might take control of your body, just say in occasional means like we're actually in a pinched situation. Our combined power will benefit our fight, but it will cost you great headaches because your brain is constantly controlled by two personalities."

"Lastly, When the time's come, you will know everything. And that time, we completely became one."

The girl said that to Asahi.

"If I must pay for my family and friends' safety with that condition, So be It! There's no time to waste! If you are me, you know what I'm thinking! So stop being mysterious and work with me!!!" Asahi confidently screamed at her.

The girl's eyes glows into purple light and her whole body scattered into a tiny particles and was absorbed by Asahi's body.

"Well then, it's like we have a deal. But remember, anything you will see, will break you apart, I will not try to stop it."

Asahi painfully hold the process,

"When the time comes, you will know how despicable we are and it all comes from our selfishness."
