As fiery flames of hell burned to the entire place, we still fought furiously. The Building slowly collapsed at night, everything slowly deteriorating, everything is falling apart.

I threw Tachibana to the wall, pinning him with my scutum and stabbing with my Double Edge, there was a lot of blood dripping on his neck, despite how many I tried, he still won't die. I didn't budge and back off, he slowly breathed and began laughing maniacally.

"You think you can kill me? think again." He resummoned Fiery Emblem once more and charged at me, I blocked him off but it was penetrated, the flames of the sword burnt my shield into molten. He then stabbed me on the chest, a pool of blood slowly formed, I kept on losing blood, I fell down slowly trying to stand up as Tachibana laughed.

"You monster…" I stated as he looked at me, I tried standing up but he stepped on my foot, making me shout in pain. The pressure of his foot bared on me, I slowly felt my hand immobilized .

"I feel bad for you Troy, such an aristocrat back in the Roman days and now, just an old picture trying to blend in with the digital art." He laughed, he kept on mocking me, I barely couldn't even move one of my hands. I tried to call Double Edge but it kept on failing.

"HEAVEN'S FURY!!!" A familiar voice shouted as a large explosion occurred, throwing Tachibana to the wall and bleeding further. I felt something descended on the ground beside me, I turned around and saw Heather standing in her angelish clothes.

"You alright?" She asked as she bent down and started grabbing on my back, I slowly felt the pain go away and blood return to my body, I felt better.

"You think?" I asked her as I stood up and glanced around at the burning objects around us. It took us a while and heard a maniacal laughter, it was Tachibana's, he slowly stood up from the wall he got launched to and stared at us.

"You should have thought as well Heather." He laughed as he slowly regenerated his loss blood, after all this time, he never lost blood, he regains and continued on, he's a demon, not a human anymore.

"I'LL MAKE YOU PAY!!! " She shouted as she flapped her wings and ascended on the ground, she was mad at Tachibana, he began laughing as he started restructuring other burnt down objects.

"HEAVEN'S FURY!!!" She summoned her staff and a beam of light appeared from her staff, she pointed at him, the concentrated light slowly burned Tachibana as he began to scream in pain.

" HOW?! " He screamed in pain as Heather kept on pointing the staff to Tachibana.

"You're a demon right, have a holy light if so." She smirked as Tachibana slowly burn to dust, he tried calling Fiery emblem but the sword was also turned into dust, his body dusted as kept on screaming, it was all too hellish to see, everything from the burning places, the demonic screams of agony, everything was here.

"Come on." She stated after all of the left over dust from Tachibana was gone, I nodded as I stood up and began flying away.

We left the rundown building, burning with flames and innocent people were looking at the atrocity. I feel bad for Tachibana, was he controlled or he just got that. However, I felt something was right and it reminded me of something.

"By the way, where's Ayame?" I asked .

"She went home earlier and mourned for Tachibana's loss." She sighed, despite them being sentient beings, they still feel emotions after all. I don't know what I can say about Ayame's feelings right now, but all I hope she is alright.

As we got back to our home, I felt something wrong, I felt a wrong presence as we landed on the building. I felt that wrongness near us, I felt the presence of it in Kagura's room. I didn't think of anything else but I barged into the room and saw her, going to bite the same fruit that Tachibana bit.

"Troy?" She asked as she let go of the fruit.

" Wait, Don't eat it! " I stated as I carried the fruit and catched it, I hid the fruit from her to make sure what was going on.

"Why? What is it?" she asked, she wasn't hesitating to eat the fruit at all, she was just calm and understanding , just wanting some questions.

"It's for your safety I guess." I sighed, as I hid the fruit.

" Okay… " she softly spoke, I gave her an apology and went to my room and began interrogating Heather to know what the fruit is.

"What is this?" I asked as I inspected the fruit.

" The forbidden fruit of knowledge, anyone who eats it will know everything. " She sat on her bed and sighed, I put down the fruit on the table and stared at it.

"What do you think Tachibana ate? and same goes to Kagura?" I asked her, I recall Beelzebub's warning, and I realise his accusations were right.

"I don't know…" She said.

" Okay. " I stated, I left and went to Kagura's room to have her interrogation and wanting to know why she was going to eat it.

"Why are you going to eat the fruit?" I asked her, she was calm at all, eating her noodles in her bed while watching Television.

"I don't know." she answered as she slurp her noodles, she placed it near to her nightstand and continued watching the television .

"can you stay here for awhile?" She asked, I was nervous on why she wanted me to sleep in but I think Heather would be mad at me.

"Why?" I asked her.

" Well, I feel that something is not right and I want you to be with me for awhile. " She softly said, I blushed with rosy cheeks, I don't know what to respond to this and just accept it.

"Alright." I stated as I removed my shoes and socks as I lay on the bed and slept beside her. She came near to me and slept beside me, I felt her warm breast as she hugged me tightly.

" It's cold… " she excused, I blushed heavily and breathed in, I just accepted it and just hugged her.

"Hey Troy, what type of girl do you like?" She asked softly.

" Well for me, it's better to be she's nice and wholesome I guess. " I answered back.

"Night…" she said as she hugged me.

"night." I yawned as we both slept.

It still hits me on why she is going to eat that fruit.
