Chapter 4 Hiroto And More Questions...

Haruka was shocked seeing Hiroto. Who after noticing Orisa asked Haruka:

- Who is that? A monster?

Haruka immediately stood in front of Orisa in defensive position. She knew Hiroto won't hesitate from an attack.. Haruka quickly responded:

- What do you want from this place?! Speak!!

Hiroto looked at Haruka and said openly:

- I don't need to answer before you... You know that very well..

Haruka was sweating and full of stress... She really didn't knew what to do... A omega class of such high rank could kill her if he wished to.... She noticed he was pulling out his sword.. so she prepared herself her hand suddenly received a clock like symbol and she was waiting for a perfect moment. Orisa said to Haruka:

- Miss Haruka w..what does this man want from..us?

Haruka looked at her and said:

- He wants to kill you Orisa..since you are technically a monster...

Orisa's eyes opened wide as she realised what was about to happen was her fault... She cried tears which confused and shocked Hiroto for a second and made him think:

- "A monster that can cry huh? That is something I didn't saw before...but that doesn't matter..."

Haruka and Hiroto exchanged glares the only difference was that Hiroto was in full Japanese metalic samurai armor looking at both with his eyes glowing green and ready to strike. Haruka was ready and was breathing in and out ... The suddenly Hiroto said:

- FIRESPLINTER SLASH!

Hiroto jumped at Haruka and his place ignited as his sword split into two and he went for a kill on Orisa. But Haruka smirked and said:

- Time stop command Level one!

As soon as she said it a wave is energy went out from her hand stopping time around her in a small radius. Orisa was in awe and she immediately asked:

- Woah...how did you do that?

Haruka smiled and said:

- That is a time stop ability I have. It's pretty strong but it has limitations. Every level requires more focus to maintain and each level is less time.

Orisa then asked:

- So... Level one how much is it?

Haruka said while lowering her arm:

- At least a minute. So we need to go.

Orisa nodded as Haruka took her hand and walked off quickly towards the station. After a minute Hiroto unfroze and his attack destroyed a big chunk of a small city block. But as he noticed Orisa and Haruka gone he said:

- Seems I underestimated that women... She had to stop time to escape. Such ability is beyond rare.

Hiroto started to follow the smell of both of them but mostly Orisa. Meanwhile Orisa and Haruka stood in front of the entrance to the station. Orisa asked:

- So this is the place? Where it all happened?

Haruka then answered:

- This monster went inside. I want to find it and find more about these creature's. You sure you want to come Orisa?

Orisa nodded and answered:

- I don't have much of a choice really at all. If I stay that guy can kill me.

Haruka smiled and hold her hand tight and said:

- Time to find out what's in there..

Haruka started to ascend the stairs with Orisa as the smell of monster blood could be sensed and smelled just from a single step inside. Haruka was disgusted but went deeper either way. There was much things all around them. Left over bodies from a few dozen years back and even skeletons. But it seemed that many were fresh. As Haruka and Orisa got to the main station they noticed there was nothing in there. Haruka confused said:

- This is weird...I don't see or sense anything....like no monster is here.

Orisa kneeled down and licked some blood which confused and shocked a bit Haruka. Orisa said then:

- The most responsible for this is deeper In..he is at a weird room with tons of boxes.

Haruka was shocked that Orisa could be so accurate just by licking some blood. But she didn't think much of it and smiled and said:

- That's good to hear. Now let's go there then. You can lead the way?

Orisa nodded and said:

- Its one of my abilities I have from being a hybrid. Now let's go Haruka -san.

Haruka nodded and went inside with Orisa . They started to walk through the train tunnel's towards the place that Orisa spoke about. It seemed the place could be quite far away. But Haruka also sensed Hiroto getting closer and was worried he may find them over here. She thought to herself:

- "Dammit he saw my power so he probably will not get hit by it second time..Goddamit.."

Orisa noticed Haruka getting and worried and speed up. Haruka followed soon after . Hiroto sensed them in the tunnels and said to himself while being outside before the train station entrance:

- Seems they went inside.. that is strange they do realise there is no escape... Maybe they trying to find something...

Hiroto went in.. Meanwhile Haruka and Orisa were walking forward all alone silently. Haruka then said:

- I hope Genji is fine. And he won't come to save me again.

Orisa confused said to Haruka:

- Save again? What do you mean by that?

Haruka then stopped for a moment and looked at Orisa and said:

- He saved me once... And that's how I meet him in the first place. It was...6 years ago...

Year 2067 City of Okinawa.. after the great rebuild from the monster arise. Haruka who was already quite older then before was working at a office in the city. Although heroes have been established... She was always under watch from her colleagues for her weird void powers. That's why she most of them time stayed up late so everyone left and sometimes cried after the entire day... Well this day she was going back home from work... In the night with moon shining and quite busy streets.. she was using a shortcut alley since it was quicker to get to her house that way. She was going quite quickly since she knew some thugs and bandits are at this our researching for possible prey.. she said to herself while walking:

- Another day in this shit hole... Goddamit... If not for the fact I have to pay the bills I would just leave...

No one wanted to accept her although her background was clear and she was proficient in many things... But because of her powers and her Incident in her hometown... That's why she had to work at Okinawa since it was payed the best. But while she was walking a man with a mask walked up and said:

- Hey sweetheart ~! Can we talk for a moment?

Haruka stopped and turned around seeing a group of at least four guys behind her she knew she couldn't use her powers in such public place so she jus turned around and said:

- Sure..what do you want from me...

The three other thugs surrounded her and looked over her very busty body..one guy grabbed her boob as she yelled and cried a bit in anger and just looked down while the fourth guy walked up and said:

- As I said be nice and it will very quick sexy~~~

Haruka was about to snap as someone said:

- Oi. You guys should know your place you know that?

The fourth guy turned around only to receive a devastating punch to the face and flew above Haruka into a wall ... Haruka looked in shock and the other three guys backed off... A young teenager walked out with his arm clenched and mask on with one blue and one purple eye and said:

- If you punks won't go away. We may have three more bodies to bury in the fucking graveyard.

The three thugs picked the fourth one up and run away. Haruka was standing in shock as the boy walked up and was waving in front of her and saying:

- Hey. Hey are you ok or what?

Haruka snapped from shock and blushed and said:

- I..i am fine. Thank you for that. But who are you?

The guy lowered his mask and smiled and stood straight and crossed arms and said proudly:

- I am Genji Yamamoto. I want to find my sister. And no problem for help.

Haruka knew.. something sparked in her that day. And she could never forgot about that moment... The day. Her life has changed... forever.

Haruka said after finishing:

- And that's why I said second time.

She giggled as Orisa smiled and said:

- I see. That's very nice of him!

Haruka smiled back and kneeled down to her and said:

- Oh yes it is. He is truly one of the greatest heroes there could be.Now we should go before That hero comes for us.

Orisa nodded as both of them continued to walk deeper in... While this was happening... Genji and Chiyo..had a time of there own ...

At the Cultist's Bunker. At the guest room where Genji and Chiyo were staying... Chiyo asked:

- How did you just punched that girl! Without a single remorse! I get she is evil but jeez!

Genji just shrugged and answered:

- Well she was raping you so yeah I had to just react right?

Chiyo was shocked with what ease Genji said that. He didn't even seemed concerned he punched a women. Genji said then:

- Well I did learn something from looking all over this place.

Chiyo looked at him with quite confused look and said:

- Huh? What did you learn?

Genji answered:

- Well mostly the fact that the Orochi and lower type threats have system of monarchy... But also have there own ranks and society. I don't know how to say it really.

Chiyo quickly answered:

- I see..that changes some things we knew about them but what now tho?

Genji Stood up and said:

- Well of course we get out at the sacrifice part. It's the best moment to see what's gonna happen right?

Chiyo smiled and said :

- You are very clever. Now I understand why monsters fear you so much.

Genji just laughed a bit and said after a moment:

- That's nothing come on having such strength ,aura and powers doesn't mean much if you don't know how to use them.

Chiyo said :

- Well I can tell in case of the academy I am gonna really enjoy your stay there.

Genji looked at her and said after a moment:

- And you still are so persistent for me to join? Heh. Didn't expected that personally. Or do you have your own goals with that?

Chiyo looked away and laughed a bit and said:

- Well there may be some reasons. But you will learn them later.

She winked at him as Genji just sighed and laughed a bit and continued to wonder about stuff mostly about the cult and the monsters. Chiyo said after sometime:

- You know there is many people who think monsters are send to eradicate us. What do you think about that?

Genji says quite fast his answer:

- In my opinion they came to eradicate us. But only from there own wanting. That's all. I don't really think much of that personally.

Chiyo blinked eyes and laughed a bit and started to drink some whiskey in the meantime....

Genji started to think more about The monster that killed his mother..but then the leader of cultists came in with the guards and others and said:

- Time for the sacrifice ritual!!!

Genji and Chiyo stood up getting handcuffed and lead to the main room with two altars..there was many cultists..at least over a thousands of them could be seen on the entire room... Genji wasn't used to killing humans but he knew if the time required it he would do it if it was necessary. And turns out a monster priestess appeared from the crowd and said:

- Both of the nonbelievers shall we given to our gods of the darkness and evil! Today they shall be killed in there name!

She raised her hands as Genji was set on the table but Chiyo was tied up and was gagged unable to do anything... The leader spoke to the cultists:

- Today we shall sacrifice those two to the great Devour! The one to eat all souls and everything there is! The one who is made to devour flesh and living energy of us! Of his royal servants!

Genji suddenly realised something and thought to himself:

- "Seems every of the higher ranking monsters are specific. Having titles and special attributes to them.."

The priestess walked up to Chiyo and revealed her face which made Chiyo froze in shock. She noticed it was a face of a human girl. The Priestess said:

- I feast on those who will go to the great Devourer. And today it's your both turn to be eaten~~

She licked her lips. Chiyo was shocked that a human could turn into such a creature . She squirmed on the table trying to get free. While Genji watched surroundings... He noticed that something's weren't right to his own sight. Mostly some stuff seemed very weird and more distorted then the other... Suddenly as he was on the altar .. suddenly... He ended up in a dark place... Where there was no light... Only darkness... He noticed something was definitely not right. And it wasn't cultists doings. He looked around in confusion. Only to see something he didn't expected. A figure in black like obsidian body with the same eyes as he . Genji thought to himself:

- "This has to be a dream..what is this sorcery..who is this person?!"

Then the person suddenly dispersed into dust as a memory of the attack from Year 2045 came to Genji. He saw the monster looking at him the same one who killed his mother. The monster spoke:

- So can't believe these humans are so weak. I can't even believe we can't kill them without effort.

Genji was stunned for the first time he could understand what the monster said that day. And then. It spoke again:

- This world will know our wrath. But first. We will finish every single female and children... And show them no mercy..

The monster laughed as Genji suddenly screamed in his mind scape:

- I WONT LET THAT HAPPEN MONSTER!!!!

As soon as he yelled he came to the real world as he looked everywhere he noticed the priestess was about to eat into Chiyo's chest. His eyes started to glow with smoke and bright light as the leader noticed and he started to shake. Every cultist suddenly looked at the altars fully and were shocked. Priestess was millimetres from biting into Chiyo's chest and eat her heart. But then Genji broke the cuffs and immediately was in front of the priestess. She froze in fear and tried to use her knife to stab Genji. But he broke the knife with a flick. As the cultists opened fire at Genji his blue eye started glowing as the bullets vaporised before reaching him. He then grabbed the priestess by the neck and pulled arm backwards. The leader was shocked... Chiyo was the only one who was on the altar tied up but she was shocked the most out of all of them. Genji suddenly spoke and said:

- I am The one who monsters Fear. I am the one who no one knows. I am the Light and darkness at the same time.

His purple eye changed colour for white in instance as his voice went deeper and he said:

- Because I am... The Everchosen.

Genji punched the priestess through the chest punching her heart Into smithereens... The Priestess vomited blood and said:

- W...what h...how..Is this possible....

Genji released her neck as she dropped to the ground dead. All the cultists backed off but Genji wasn't done. He was fulled with rage and anger as he materialize two purple energy swords with black blades into his hands and he said:

- I AM YOUR DEATH! I AM THE GRIM REAPER!!!

Genji started to slaughter everyone he had in sight. He spared no one in his rage mode. Some tried to kill Chiyo but were slashed in half with there guts falling out... Some had there brains falling out...some were dying from blood loss... And some had there had crushed into bloody mucus by Genji's bare hand. The muscular Cultist hided to escape this slaughter as Genji killed everyone in his sight screaming in pure rage saying:

- I AM GONNA KILL YOU ALL! KILL ALL THE MONSTERS!!

Chiyo got out of the restraints and could just watch as Genji slaughtered everyone..in the room....after twenty minutes.. no one was alive..only corpses everywhere... And split bodies and pure bloody mucus everywhere... Genji calmed down after this and looked around him and realised what he has done. And said:

- See Chiyo... I had a plan. But not in this way. I didn't intend to go...into such rage...

Chiyo walked up and patted his back and said:

- Hey you did good. You didn't do bad... although this..is a pure slaughter you did it for the right cause..

Genji though and answered after a moment:

- I am guessing... But still killing this many People is a crime normally..

Chiyo said putting her glasses back on her eyes . Having blonde hair and pony tail and her blue eyes . She said:

- If they were related to monsters all the attacks especially this..is justified.

Genji looked at her and said:

- Do you think there could be something in here?

Chiyo said her opinion immediately:

- Maybe... let's go to that main Sector and research it.

Genji nodded and said:

- Lead the way Miss Chiyo.

Chiyo smiled and walked to the research part of the base and storage. Genji followed her quite close making sure they are good distance apart just in case of attacks. Chiyo stopped by a specific room and said:

- Is this... saying.. sacrificial champer?

Genji heard something and punched right through the door ripping it out. Chiyo looked kind of confused as Genji rushed in and gasped in shock. Chiyo walked in and froze as well. The room was filled with corpses of the women who seemed pregnant..and had there babies delivered by force. Genji saw a women still alive and rushed over and yelled:

- Hey are you alright?!

The women said:

- I....I...I can't... anymore...I..I don't have much time left.....

Genji didn't wanted to believe bit after using his power he noticed the women wasn't lying.... He asked:

- You..are pregnant...

Chiyo walked over In a horror and grabbed some folders and read about horrific stuff...the women answered with a slight smile:

- P..p..please..t..take my baby...and..take care of it... For..my..sake..

Genji seemed like not the guy to make such decisions but he said:

- I will...I will take care of it miss...don't worry. I promise she will be in good hands.

Chiyo was dumbfounded by Genji's accepting such a.... Big thing to bear now. The women said as she started to deliver the baby:

-Ah...ahh! W..what is your name...y..young..si..sir..

Genji smiled and lowered his mask showing his full face and said:

- Genji Yamamoto . One of the greatest heroes. Your baby will be in good hands ma'am.

The women smiled as she screamed and her baby dropped out .. Genji catched it and noticed the women stopped breathing. He smiled and made her close eyes and said:

- Rest in Peace Miss. May God take your soul to heaven.

Chiyo looked at Genji and thought to herself:

- "I could never expected someone like this...to be ready to take care of...a infant... Although not having experience..."

Genji turned to Chiyo holding the infant. He said after putting mask back on:

- Shall we go then Miss Chiyo?

Chiyo nodded and laughed and said:

- Of course. Genji. Someone who I can't understand.

Genji smiled and both started to walk out of the bunker while Genji was holding the infant. It reminded him of many times he hold his younger sister. While she was so small... Since his parents didn't had time . He smiled and said:

- I will keep you safe. Even if it means showing my true power. To protect you...

Meanwhile with Haruka And Orisa both of them were at the storage door by now. Haruka breath in and out as she said:

- If that thing is there. You run. Understood?

Orisa hesitantly nodded knowing Haruka was serious about all of this. Haruka grabbed the doors and opened the forward walking in with Orisa. The room was filled with many ruined electronics's... And somekind of fungus.... Haruka noticed in front a weird throne like place. She stood back and stopped Orisa from walking forward. Orisa confused asked:

- Um..miss Haruka.. what's wrong?

Haruka immediately draw out her cybernetic sword she had and a shield and used one of her abilities saying:

- Conqueror's Blaze! Forcefield!

A shield appeared near Haruka as she yelled to Orisa immediately:

- Run to that dark spot! AND DONT COME OUT!

Orisa scared did as told hiding in a small opening. She didn't knew what was happening... Haruka stood guard and walked forward as suddenly a figure appeared near the throne and she stopped. The figure was the same female humanoid monster from that day. Her eyes sharpen as she said:

- its your..monster... So you were hiding here all the time... I am gonna end this once and for all. And kill you in the name of everyone else you have killed!

The Monster suddenly spoke to suprise of Haruka:

- You humans are nothing more then bugs or meat to us .

Haruka froze in shock hearing it and said:-

- monster..that can speak...?!

The Monster said:

- Us dragon level as you call us are capable of speech your language but that won't change the chances you have.

As soon as she said that she was next to Haruka and punched her shield which was made to withstand a blast of a nuke. The punched send Haruka flying into the ceiling and her forcefield disabled as she vomited blood and felt down. She said:

- This power... Goddamit...it's way too strong... But I won't give up..not today!!

Haruka stood up and aimed her sword as it shoot out a powerful plasma blast. Which the monster grabbed and snapped in half . Haruka was shocked as the monster got in front of her and punched her multiple times.. making Haruka vomit blood and many of her bones break. She thought to herself:

- "I can't die here... Genji Is gonna kill me! I can't die here! I still have people who care about me! Haruka fucking move!"

The monster suddenly pulled arm backwards as it glowed. It said:

- Time to die. Planet Buster pun-

As the punch was almost at her face Haruka looked at the monster and said:

- Conqueror's Blaze! SOLAR SPEAR!

A giant spear made from sun Energy pierced the monster coming from Haruka's palm. The monster screamed in agony and shrieked as it stepped back in pain. Haruka stood up and took her sword two handed this time and said:

- I am not gonna fall so quickly...stay away from Orisa or me!!

Suddenly something came past her as she froze seeing Hiroto coming before her. He said:

- Let me deal with this..you can rest.

Hiroto took out a giant samurai two handed two which he wielded one handed. He said to the monster:

- A dragon level huh? Not so impressive. But it's something new to see.

The monster roared as it jumped at Hiroto sending numerous energy blast at him. Each blast has the power of a small star. Hiroto hold his sword in Straight line and swinged to his left side and said:

- Art of Swordsman Perfect slash .

All the balls exploded. Which made monster shocked. It attacked Hiroto with full might of its punch . Hiroto dodged and grabbed naginata from his back and said:

- Rest in hell. Beast

With serious voice and red eyes he stabbed the monster right through. And in instance he cut its head off using his sword. The monsters head felt to the ground as Hiroto turned his naginata as it if ignited a blaze and burned the corpse... He then turned to Haruka and said:

- I don't know why you are friends with a monster. But she didn't harm anyone. So I will let that slide.

Haruka suddenly asked:

- Why are you here? What was your goal?!

Hiroto pointed at the burning corpse and said:

- That was my target but also the fact I used to live here as well.

Haruka Was kind of shocked but signaled to Orisa to come to her. Orisa runner quickly behind Haruka . Hiroto looked at them and said:

- Know that we will meet again. And I am pretty sure it won't be long .

Haruka just stood up and walked away with Orisa as Hiroto smirked and just looked at the corpse. He then said through his earpiece:

- Mission Accomplished. The target has been eliminated.

The voice on the other side said:

- Good job Hiroto. Get back to HQ immediately. Soon the others heroes will be arriving.

Hiroto said as an answer:

- Understood that.

Hiroto hanged up as he walked out of the room as it burned into smithereens... Meanwhile... Haruka and Orisa Got back into the truck and were driving back. Haruka was injured but Orisa was worried for her. Haruka noticed it and said:

- Hey come on I am not weak. I can handle myself so don't worry.

Haruka patted her head as she drove. Orisa smiled and said:

- I am happy to hear that Haruka-san!

Haruka giggled as she drove them back to the city of Tokyo.... After this..insane day... Which for her was a finishing of an arc in her life. She was finally free...of the past.

Meanwhile.. at Tokyo. Near academy. Genji stopped with Chiyo . Chiyo said to him:

- How you gonna explain this eh?

Genji said:

- Sometimes you don't need the explanation. The heart is what you need to speak.

Chiyo laughed as she pulled out a special paper and gave it Genji. Genji was confused but took it and his eyes froze. And he said:

- This..is..

Chiyo smiled and said:

- Possible photo of your sister.. although..much older now but still the name matches.

The girl had the same hair as him and had green and yellow eye. Genji Was shocked seeing his sister for the first time in many years. He noticed it was her. By the box in her arms. He started to cry and said:

- Thank...you.thank you so much for this.

Chiyo smiled and left to the academy and yelled:

- No problem for that! Genji Yamamoto! The strongest hero!

She suddenly was gone from the sight but Genji smiled and walked back home with his mood beyond heavens..he got inside and set the picture inside of his room. And said:

- Sister..finally I have a clue where you can be. I will find you soon.

He then went and made food for the infant according to his experience. As he was waiting Haruka opened the door and stopped seeing Him holding and infant. Orisa froze in shock as well. Genji froze in embrasment and awkwardness . Haruka asked:

- Who is that infant?

Genji laughed nervously and said :

- let's say I had a insane day. Ehehehe

Haruka anger skyrocketed as Orisa runner to her room..and suddenly Haruka screamed:

- GENJIIIIIII!!!!!!!

Genji gulped realising his fucking day of happiness is over and he thought to himself:

- "I am guessing nothing lasts forever...and definitely not Haruka's patience...."
