22.) To the Keys!!!

It was the 10th day of the fifth quadrillionth omniversal year. Within the empty quadrant at the start of the omniverse. Within the ninth solar system of the ninth universe. It was here that a battle to revive death had begun. The fierce battle caused that galaxy to begin to warp and break down. As it all went down, many, many forces from all over began to make their way there. To see the re-awakening of their second Death God.

Amiyama: " I need my main platoon and generals to head south to Vonra 9 and cut off the last 5 members of Le Destrucìon."

Phoenix Forces: "Yes, Madame Amiyama!" *A Mighty Charge*

Amiyama: "Kimichi & Kaguro, You go and head off the two massive energies that're flying behind HellBlazer, Diablos, and Angelos. They'll be in our way."

Kimichi & Kaguro: "Yes ma'am!" *FWIP* *FWIP*

Amiyama: "Sanjin, Bujur- uh… Where the hell did they go!?"

Aiyama: "Don't ask me. Just know our two keys just vanished and reappeared over there, nearing their base. I can sense our two newbies there as well."

Amiyama: "Ah… fine. Not like they can beat them anyway. Their improvement is Gahwardian based. There's no way two demi-gods can outmatch them. But they can definitely stall them. While we deal with HellBlazer."

Aiyama: "Right. Seems he's here anyway."

Amiyama: …

HellBlazer: "Ah, Princess Amiyama and Prince Aiyama. It's indeed a pleasure to see the likes of you here."

Amiyama: "Indeed. You know what we've come for and we're not leaving without him."

HellBlazer: "Ah, you really think you'll succeed?"

Aiyama: "Of course we will, HellBlazer. Or is it Haydes we're speaking to?"

HellBlazer: "Hahahahaaaa! No, no, no. There's no Haydes here. You're a bit off if you've been thinking that heathens. I'm HellBlazer through and through. Haydes is my creator as I'm just a simple half of the Self-Split technique."

Amiyama: "You mean the main technique of the God of War clan, Gahwardia? You've mastered it!?"

Aiyama: "Hmm… the technique that causes one to split and grow in stature with every passing second. The two halves usually have slightly better improvement rates than the ones that make them. Wait… that would also mean..."

Haydes: "It indeed means that fuckers."

Amiyama: "Tch!"

Aiyama: "Dammit. So he wasn't here… but he was?"

Haydes: "Indeed. I've attached a Bringer contract to HellBlazer. It allows me to come to his side instantly."

Amiyama: "Hmm, those contracts are truly a blessing. And you've made that study into a unique class when its original was just that of a rare class study. You're indeed impressive."

Haydes: "Well in hax and ability of course. But in this case you both outstat us, well only until I grab the nape and…"

Amiyama: "What the fu-"

Aiyama: "It's like they fused and unfused in an instant. And it seems the power accumulated was absorbed and then it reset. Be careful, they're both buffed up to a new base. On top of that they'll be gaining strength as they go."

Amiyama: "It'll be cool. They stand no chance against us in this. Let's just make 'em refuse then I can head off."

Aiyama: "Say less cousin Ami." *FWIP*

Haydes: "Hmmph. Move."

HellBlazer: "Right."

Aiyama: "Imagine That: Solario Marvel!"

Haydes: "Contract: Effective Downplay!

Aiyama forces open a solar system size dimension created by a preset equation fueled by his imagination. A massive world with a scorching sun appeared in an instant completely transferring all the combatants there. But in that same instant. The effects of the energy draining sun that was set up by Aiyama was completely null.

Aiyama: "Bastard."

Haydes: "Gotta stay prepared fool! Now then. Hoo WA!"

Haydes employs a standard Warren Warmonger-style martial arts. It uses base karate and monkey style kung fu. He opens up with a series of quick, mid-level right kicks. Aiyama blocks the attacks and counters with 2 quick boxing style jabs followed by a heavy, left round-house kick.

Haydes: "Seems you being a heavy hitter was no fib. You're quite powerful and have an amazing amount of force. But…"

Aiyama: "Hu- GAAAH!"

Aiyama is slapped from the right by a massive force and sent flying across his desert.

Amiyama: "Aiyama!!!"

HellBlazer: "Pay attention you heathen!"

Amiyama: "Hmph!"

HellBlazer uses the warmonger style as well and throws five quick jabs with two quick high kicks to boot. Amiyama blocks them all and hits HellBlazer with a back hand and a spinning left high kick. Using him as a foot-stool to jump into the sky and into Haydes' bubble.

Amiyama: "Have at thee!"

Haydes: "Come then!"

HellBlazer: "Hold it wench!"

Amiyama begins to block and counter them from both sides. Duck, weave left, sway right, jump and… kick. She lands a smacking hit on HellBlazer and pushes Haydes back with her cosmic flames. Right as they rebound, an arising Hoorah yell came and just then… Aiyama and Amiyama prepare a double helix flame-blitz.

Haydes: "Tch! Contract:..."

HellBlazer: "Contract."

Aiyama & Amiyama: "SHINING REGULOUS!!!"

Haydes & HellBlazer: "Aquatic World Serpent!!!"

The two attacks clash and release a shock capable of wiping out a universe. The realm Aiyama had created took the blast, but shattered as a result.

Aiyama: "Hmm. *swoosh* Let's try this then."

Haydes: "Be on guard HellBlazer."

HellBlazer: "Mhmm."

Aiyama: "Gravi No Fläm du Purgatory."

Amiyama: "Tch! Really Aiyama!?" Fine! Cosmic Flame Element: Fläm Shaman Rah."

Haydes: "Damn! Feed me energy!"

HellBlazer: "Right! Hoo ha!"

Haydes: *CLAP* Hmmph! CONTRACT!: Summit Enlightenment!!!"

Aiyama: "Add some Mental and Physical Zenchi."

Amiyama: "Already ahead of you. Let's go. HMMPH!"

Haydes: "Tch! Guess I'll do the same."

The flames of the princess and prince engulf the solar system in an instant as they fuse to form a gigantic storm of flames. A grand statue forms behind Haydes with well over two thousand hands smacking down on the hellish space distorting flames.

Haydes: "With this contract I'm required to fuse my energy with another user!. There's one other attack needing that same requirement to work! Did you.get what you needed!?"

HellBlazer: "YES! Your energy has been assimilated and the technique is ready."

Haydes: "Fire then! They're steadily pushing me back right now and I've no way to overcome that attack alone. It can burn the enlightened cosmic armor even if it is just a little."

HellBlazer: "Roger. Here goes! *CLAP* Contract: Shiisu Shinpu Tenzin Enlightenment!."

Yet another grand statue takes the stand but it seems to be far more malleable than the first. It quickly begins throwing fists into the flames. While Haydes holds them back, HellBlazer slowly engulfs them with the pieces of his statue that are left while spreading over the flames with each hit.

Amiyama: "Hmmph! Cosmic distort."

The two statues begin to implode in on themselves. The process slowly sped up as the statues weakened more and more. The fire began to seep through as the statues turned into liquid."

Haydes: "Hmm. Guess a liquid wartanium concentrate will do. Hmph!"

Aiyama: "Tch! Move Lady Amiyama!"

Amiyama: "Don't have to tell me twice!" *Leap*

Haydes uses the melted wartanium and controls it as if it were an extension of himself. Sending massive spikes and blades flying at both Amiyama and Aiyama.

*FWIP* *FWIP* *FWIP* *FWIP* *FWIP*

Aiyama: "Hmm! Hup!... Haa! Hya! Woah!"

Amiyama: "What an annoying study they both employ. Hup! *PEW* … Hmm. There! Cancellation: Dispel."

The attacks flying at them all quickly vanished to dust. And their source material had vanished as well… actually. The whole contract seems to have vanished before their eyes

HellBlazer: "Man… that heathen is indeed a problem sir Haydes."

Haydes: "Yes, the wench is indeed a fucking problem. I'll go for her. Hold Aiyama!"

HellBlazer: "Indeed." *FWIP*

Aiyama: "Hmph!"

HellBlazer: "Ha!"

*PSH* *PRCH* *FWOO* *PRCH* *PSH* *SWISH* *FWOOP* *THUD* *PRCH* *FWM* *PSH*

Aiyama and HellBlazer begin throwing blows at extremely high speeds as they ascend upwards. As they square off, Amiyama throws a mighty round-house kick as Haydes approaches her. Haydes dodges and swoops behind Amiyama who throws a blind elbow with precision. Haydes is surprised and blocks off instinct. With his arms in his way of vision, Amiyama takes advantage and lands a heavy knee to Haydes' stomache region.

Haydes: "HWUAAAA!!"

Amiyama: "Hmph!" *SWOOSH*

As Haydes is disoriented by the heavy knee, Amiyama wastes no time on knocking Haydes back down to the floor with a falcon high drop kick.

*PSHEEER*

Haydes: "Gaaaaah!!!" *CRASH*

Amiyama: "Hmmm. Phoenix Flames: Talon Amaterasu!"

A grand array of black cosmic flames fly down at Haydes in a spinning approach. The flames begin to shape into blades as they smash into the floor where Haydes lands.

Haydes: "Damn! War Pence: Shields of ye' ol Sparta!"

Haydes counters with a 10 layer dome of spartan shields. They repel the attacks as they begin to build up kinetic energy in the shape of spears.

"Her assault has almost built the energy I need to throw the spears."

And with that being said, another 30 flames plowed into the dome of shields which helped Haydes reach his throwing point.

"GOOOOO!"

Amiyama: "What!?"

More than 100 spears go charging at Amiyama and Aiyama at speeds 100x above the speed of light.

Aiyama: "Tch! Hiya!"

HellBlazer: "Ahh!"

Aiyama: "Imagine That: Amidya Rose Shield!"

A great shield with roses embedded all over it shields Amiyama and Aiyama from the incoming onslaught.

Amiyama: "I'll add my finesse to the roses."

Aiyama: "Please, do so. His attack has your energy behind it girly."

Amiyama: "Right! Cancellation: Embedded Break!"

The flowers on the shield are imbued with the power of cancellation. With their natural attraction nature, they quickly draw in all the spears for a quick vanish expulse.

Haydes: "HellBlazer, do it my guy."

HellBlazer: "Ha! Right. Contract: Energy Corruption."

Amiyama: "Hmm!?"

Aiyama: "Damn! They used our technique to get to us!"

The energy that was being cancelled was breaking itself off and sticking to Aiyama's shield and seeping through. With contact it can instantly corrupt what it comes in contact with.

Amiyama: "I'll just burn it. Phoenix Flames: Cosmic Burn!"

The corruption was instantly burned before it could even begin to spread. Then burst open the shield Aiyama conjured and blitzes Haydes. Aiyama immediately follows suit and dashes at HellBlazer.

Haydes: "Seems nothing will be easy for us. Let's go at their necks HellBlazer. These bitches got my Gahwardian genes flarin' up."

HellBlazer: "It'll be fun. Let's run em' up!"

As the battle continues within the heart of Solar System 9. Tailee, Meilee, Demetri, Kitiro and Taishin take on the small army brought by Amiyama. 200 warriors and 5 generals take a stand against our mighty five on Vonra 9.

Tailee: "So there's two-hundred of 'em huh?

Demetri: "Seems like it. We'd have to take forty each… well if we count them damn generals then it's actually forty-one each."

Taishin: "Seems simple enough. Let's take the bastards down."

Meilee: "I agree."

Kitiro: "Tch! I'm ready anytime."

Demetri: "Then its settled."

Tailee: "We take 'em down now."

Everyone: "Right."

The five begin their charge against Amiyama's army. On Sedus 9, Sonya and Joe take on Kaguro and Kimichi. But the battle isn't within their favor.

Joe: "Tch! They're pretty damn strong for mere Demi-Gods. What the hell is going on!?"

Sonya: "AHHHH!" *CRASH*

Kimichi: "How pathetic."

Kaguro: "Hehehe. And you two fools call yourselves "Gods"?? Don't make me laugh."

Sonya: *Cough* *Cough* "Don't you bitches go underestimating us."

Joe: *Crack* *Crack* Indeed. Let's get the real fun started. *PEW**PEW* *PEW*

Kaguro: "Hmm?!"

Within a blink of an eye. Kaguro had three small burn marks on his left pectoral area.

"Seems I've been tagged."

Joe: "Indeed."

Kaguro: "When did you!?"

*PRCH**PSH**PRCH*

"How the hell!?"

Kimichi: (It looks as though the three marks acted as tags which causes an instant attack far beyond normal perceivable speed for Gods. With Kaguro's guard down it was quite easy to land them.) *TINNNG* "That was quite the approach. I'd prefer not to do battle in swordplay, but… I guess I can dabble."

Sonya: "Tch! (She blocked that without even looking at me. And her attention is still on Joe. I'll show this… BITCH.)"

Kimichi: "Bitch am I??"

Sonya: "Wha-?" *SMACK*

Kimichi: "A quick smack from the side of my sword oughta tame you."

Sonya: "Ngh!"

Kimichi: "Your damn expression told me all your thoughts. Keep a poker face if you wanna prove anything."

Sanjin: "HAAAAAA!!"

Angelos: "Hm! Ha! Hoouh! Hyuah! Haa!" *PRCH* *PSH* *FWOOP* *PEW*

Sanjin: "Dammit!"

Angelos completely counters Sanjin's onslaught without much issue. He then proceeds to blitz Sanjin with speeds 10x that of light.

"GAAAAH!" *SMASH*

Sanjin is hurled into Venomin 9. Second largest planet within that solar system.

Angelos: "In terms of hand to hand skill. Your brother would've been a better match for me. Your impulsiveness disgusts me, mainly due to it reminding me of Diablos so much."

Sanjin: "Tch! I'll make you eat those words soon enou-"

Bujuro: "AAAAAAAH!!!" *SMASH*

Diablos: "You definitely improved quite a lot since our last bout. We'd be toast in most cases… well most cases that don't involve us training too."

Bujuro: "Bastards improved a lot as well. Guess nothing ever comes easy when facing gods."

Sanjin: "Yeah, but we got this. We should definitely employ what Kaguro made for us."

Bujuro: "Yeah, follow ne!"

Sanjin: "Right!"

Bujuro dashes at Angelos with speeds even greater than what Angelos had just displayed. Rushing Angelos with a quick five part rush that was easily dodged by Angelos.

Angelos: "You nearly got me there kid. Pretty good."

Bujuro: *Grin* "Hmph!" *FWIP*

Angelos: "Hmm!?"

Bujuro dashes out of the way as sanjin comes flying in with a golden hammer. Angelos is nearly too shocked to perceive what's coming before being blown away by the shockwave of the hammer.

Angelos: "Aaaah! (Damn! They're using high class god slaying weapons to make up for their lack of stature.)"

Diablos: "Damn! Summons: Legendary Sword Gi!"

Diablos charges in with his great sword and uses it to parry Sanjin's golden hammer. The clash creates a shockwave that destroys Venomin 9.

"Seems as though this has become an all out weapons battle. I can dig it."

Angelos: "Indeed. I've been itching to test my Ki Sword too."

Bujuro: "My katana will be soaked in your blood. Be prepared you filthy gods."

Sanjin: … "Grrr. I'll blow you both away."

Angelos: "Just try it."

Diablos: "Please… we're hoping for a show."

The war is high volume as the battles commence. The "Keys" to Death are within grasp! The anticipated revival of Death is only hours away
