Today is like yesterday, tomorrow will be just like today. There's never an end to the fighting.

Hayato, the leader of the Strangers unit which has been harassing you, calmly steps forward. He steps neatly over the fallen pieces of the mansion you have so tenderly pulverized, not overturning a single rock in the process. His sword is in his hand, the high frequency motor letting out a soft hum. He seems perfectly at peace.

"You have good instincts, Air One. Very good. But instinct alone does not win a battle. For instance," Hayato's eyes suddenly widen, "Your timing is off..."

[Enemy Skill Active!]

Hayato steps in and slashes you. You had no time to react. He didn't possess overwhelming speed or strength it was simply that...his blow as perfect. There was no room for you to counter, to even step aside. It's as if you were asleep. Better late than never, you jump back, watching the blood spray from your wound. Lunatic howls and leaps at him, only to find that her own blow is stopped short by Hayato's sheath, thrust directly into her throat. She gags and rolls over, evidently taken as off guard as you were.

You wind up and strike at your foe, throwing all your weight into each punch, but he easily knocks your attack aside with light taps and shallow cuts.

"Your timing is sloppy, Air One. I can see through your every move."

This...this bastard! You clench your fist and let your rage boil over. The only thing to do is...

>Strike

>Lunatic's Special Skill: Double Howling. You can use your Domination Howl once without expending its use.

Hmm.
With hindsight, I think his skill is that he has a Strike which beats both Crashes and other Strikes.

In which case we should probably have Guarded, with Lunatic's use of Domination Howl applied just in case...

You take in a deep breath, intent on unleashing the primal howl that has been waiting inside of you, but a burning sensation across your throat stops your in your tracks. You put a hand up to your neck and feel warm blood wash over your skin. Just...just when did he...?

"I told you, didn't I? Your timing is dreadful."

With unerring precision, he slashes you again and again. Each blow severs a major artery, causing your blood to soak the wooden floors. You feel faint, and you can't continue to stand. You fall forward, landing on your knees as you struggle to get control of yourself again. Hayato raises his sword and points it at your heart.

"I wonder if you will survive..."

A shriek reaches your ears, and you see Lunatic crash into Hayato, sending him skidding backward. Lunatic has regained her composure, covering her arms and legs with silver fur, her limbs growing tight with lean muscle. Her eyes shine golden, and her ears lengthen by several inches. You've never seen Lunatic transform this much of herself before...

"Such anger...but you know, those very emotions will be the death of you."

[Five Rings - Earth, deactivated!]
[Enemy Skill Active!]

"Tranquility is a necessary attribute of a warrior. Your feeble rage shall not even cause a ripple in my calm waters."

Lunatic cries out and charges forward, delivering a kick straight to his side. Though you see Hayato bring his sword up, there's no way he can parry-

"Gagh--!"

Lunatic's leg was chopped off at the knee. But...but how? There's no way you can block something like that with a human's strength! As intelligent as he may be, Hayato has only a normal human's muscles!

"If you are calm, you can even break a wave. You all are far too emotional for this."

You get up, your wounds having closed enough to move. You launch a barrage of blows at Hayato, but he easily deflects them with the flat of his blade. He's not taking you seriously at all...

>Enemy Advantage: 2

Your fist is knocked aside, and Hayato plants his sword in your chest. You have trouble breathing, and blood spills from your mouth. You can't speak. You can barely stay conscious. This guy...he's no joke! But...but you're not a pushover either. Even with this amount of air, you can do it. You're sure you can pull off that technique. Yes, Lunatic's howl. You focus, compressing your lungs totally in a single instant, using every bit of muscle you can to force out the air at point blank. Your voice cracks and the shock of air blasts Hayato back, taking his sword with him. He slams into a pillar several yards away and shakes his head, his breath growing slightly ragged.

"Not bad. I felt it. Just a hint of fear. But that's not enough. In any fight, you must be prepared!"

[Five Rings - Water, deactivated!]
[Enemy Skill Active!]

He retrieves his scabbard, holding it in his off hand. He points his sword at you and grins.

"Yes, a true warrior must be willing to use all of his tools. Everything at your disposal must be ready!"

He swings both sword and scabbard at you, smashing you with the blunt object before tearing open the wound with steel. Your healing is having a hard time keeping up with all these repeated blows. You resort to putting the souvenir sword you picked up between you and Hayato, but each attack breaks your guard and throws you to your knees. You can't stand against this strength! How is he mustering this enormous attack power? This is hopeless, you're doing all you can to just break even with this guy and he's still got his cool. If only you could...
>>
>>32557823

From nowhere, a leg flies across the room and smashes into Hayato's face. It throws him off guard enough to let you leap back, putting some distance between the two of you. You look to see Lunatic kneeling, struggling to breath. She must have thrown her severed leg to distract him! But you won't let this chance go to waste. You're on your last legs so you..!

It's a hope against hope, but you've got to try it. You reach into the makeshift bag you made and bring out the strange box you picked up earlier. While you have an ominous feeling about it, you think you'll take Hayato's advice for once. A true warrior uses all his tools, huh? You chuck the box at him with all your might, and say a little prayer under your breath.

"Useless."

Hayato effortlessly cuts open the box, and what's inside causes your jaw to drop. There, in the box, is a hand grenade. Why would someone leave a hand grenade in a box!? You see the pin resting on the point of Hayato's sword. The two of you look at each other, time seemingly frozen in this instant. And then there is a blinding flash and deafening bang. Smoke fills the room and you cough on the substance. You immediately rush over to Lunatic, using this distraction to aid her.

"Sorry boy, I underestimated him. Help me out of here, will you?"

You stand her up and start to walk her out. Her cut leg steaming as her regeneration attempts to write a new limb from whole cloth, slowly but surely, sealing off the blood flow and reconstructing bone. Before you can make it out of the door, you see Hayato charge from behind the two of you his sword poised at Lunatic's heart. You wince, unable to do anything about the approaching enemy, but before things can go wrong, Hayato is suddenly stopped. He's caught in midair by something, then thrown back into the lobby of the mansion.

"That's far enough, lost sinner!"
>>
>>32558592

Fallen Angel lands just behind you, and Rin appears just a moment later. Rin pulls at the air, and you can hear the strum of her wires being retracted. So that's what stopped Hayato.

"W-we're here to p-put and end to you!"

"For we are-!"

Rin and Angel step forward and put out their hands, forming a little heart between each. That's more adorable than intimidating, you two...

"Pretty Purgatory!"
"P-pretty Purga--"

"More of this trash..?"

Hayato readies himself again, taking a new stance. This can't be good...

"Go take care of them, boy. I'll be fine."

Without a second thought, you head back to face Hayato, already in the midsts of engaging the two girls. His sword dances with Angel's blade of light, casting sparks in every direction. Meanwhile, his scabbard is set to work batting Rin's stray shots out of the air. He's being pushed back, but you somehow feel like this is all according to plan for him. He grins as he looks at you.

"You had a nice trick there but those won't save you any more."

[Five Rings - Fire, deactivated!]
[Enemy Skill Active!]

"Now we fight as men! No more tricks, no more games!"

He sheathes his sword and with one motion, slashes straight through Angel's beam of light. The force sends her to her knees. Before Rin can adjust her aim, he unleashes his blade a second time, slapping the rounds back at her. Several embed themselves in Rin's arm, sending her to the floor while her body seeks to compensate.

"And now for you."

He returns the sword to is scabbard again and leaps forward, his feet barely skimming the ground as he advances!

As if you'll let him! You growl and kick off the ground, shattering the masonry behind you as you advance. Your brute strength sends you forward at incredible speeds. Your face burns from the air resistence, and you can feel your bones creak as you urge them past their limit, but it makes no difference to you. All you need to do is deliver this one hit, this one blow! You reach out and smash your fist into Hayato's face, stopping his attack dead in its tracks. But you don't stop there. You strike again and again, each blow causing him to stumble backwards, each strike breaking more of his frame down as your unrivaled strength tears apart his all-too-human body. You end your assault with a leaping kick, burying him in the ground as you jump away.

Rin and Angel don't let up, loosing bolts of lightning and balls of flame as you back away, filling the area with waves of destructive energy. The heat and smell of ozone make you wonder if they're overdoing it, but a moment later, you see Hayato emerge from the crater, slashing away every stray bolt that goes his way. He's ragged, worn, and bloodied, but he's not out yet. He throws away his scabbard and takes his sword in both hands.

"This is it, Air One! My final stance. I shall reduce you to nothing!"

He lashes out with his sword, drawing numerous lines in the air. You go to step forward, but you feel the cold heat of steel on your body the moment you do. He's dozens of meters away, how can he be striking you from this distance. You and the girls begin to circle around him, looking for a place to attack, but everywhere you go, you're met with the sting of steel. His arcs grow larger and wider, preventing you from even taking the most basic of movements before you feel his razor on your flesh. You...you can't do anything!

This is hopeless...

"N-no! Don't give up, s-sir!"

Your hair stands on end, and you feel the surge of static run through you. Hayato's whirling blade comes to a standstill and you see sparks jump across the room. Rin stands beside you, holding out her hands and gritting her teeth. Her face is flushed, and she's clearly exerting all she has. A small, spaded tail pokes out from under her skirt and two small nubs grow on her forehead...are those horns?

"Ha ha ha! So you have taken your true form, Righteous Devil? Then let us end this!"

Angel flicks her hair and two enormous wings of light sprout from her back. Fire surrounds her, and she crafts a brilliant spear in her hands.

"Fall to the Spear of Destiny!"

She hurls the spear at Hayato, who is too tired to avoid it. The burning light pieces his stomach and pins him to the floor. Meanwhile, Rin has run to his side and begins to wind her wire around him, binding him to the spear. The wires cross over his body in an odd pattern...you're sure Claire has shown you something like this before... Before you can dwell on it, Rin jumps beside you and raises her hand. Lightning crackles around it as she turns to Angel.

"Very well done! For his sins, we shall burn him at the stake!"
>>
>>32560071
The two girls twirl in place, then point at Hayato. A great bonfire spontaneously erupts at his feet while lighting falls from the ceiling to strike him over and over again. Though he screams in agony, it only seems to spur the two on as the fiery explosions and celestial bolts begin to fall faster and faster, resulting in a maelstrom of burning energy while he writhes on the 'stake'.

"Now, Cerberus!"

You don't need to be told twice. You jump into the air and fall upon your prey, your hands taking their familiar claw shapes. With one slash, you rake down his body, splitting both him and the spear into two. The broken spear rearranges itself as the wire grows tight, pulling Hayato and the broken light into the shape of a cross. The girls leap beside him kneel as if in prayer.

"To the Underworld with you!"

"A-amen!"

At these words, the lance explodes into a shower of fire and lighting, consuming the rest of the mansion in the process. Don't you think that was overkill, girls...?

---
>>
>>32560096

"Good job, boys and girls! We'll ship his sorry ass back to Japan."

Despite all the fireworks, it seems that Hayato clung to life. With their leader so soundly defeated, the rest of the Strangers vanished into the night and haven't returned. Hayato himself is locked in a transparent box, silently cursing you with his eyes. You have to wonder what was more humiliating: being beaten by his target or being beaten by these two cosplaying weirdos. Rin and Angel are busy squeeling to themselves, overwhelmingly pleased at their resounding victory. You can already see Angel devising new poses for Rin, and discussing plans about an outfit change and new combination attacks.

You can't take all this, though, and you consider heading back to see Claire.

"O-Oh, are you worried about her, sir?"

You didn't say that.

"That's fine, Cerberus! Your mate is a fine woman! I am sure that she will serve you gladly, even in her current state!"

Shut up.

It's been a few weeks since that business with the Strangers unit. You've gotten back to what is now your normal life. Claire made a full recovery from her illness, sadly, and seems to be trying to make up for lost time. Just this morning, you woke up to find her trying to get your pants off. You can't believe her.

"Are you still upset, darling? I was merely attempting to ascertain your current virility. After I, unfortunately, missed several nocturnal emissions, I feel like I must not let another drop go wasted...unwitnessed, I mean."

You pinch Claire's cheek and drag her along. You were hoping that the pinch would dissuade her, but Claire leans into it and you swear you hear her ask you to pinch harder. You pretend you don't hear her and get back to the business at hand. Namely, what you're going to do at UGN headquarters today. In truth, you're supposed to go see the Chief today to get debriefed, but you're not sure you really want to. You're particularly worried about Lunatic. In that last battle, she got some serious wounds. Last you heard, her leg didn't regenerate right. There's also the issue of Rin and Angel making more and more public appearances. You're pretty sure that violates some kind of secrecy clause in the UGN contract, but you've never seen them get scolded. Nevertheless, they invited you for tea today. You suppose you could humor them.

"Hey, boy. You worried about me or something?"

One could say that. The soft white morning light filters through the clinic window, and Lunatic is resting on a bed. She's got a simple white hospital gown on and is covered by the sheet. In her hands is a copy of Bear Monthly, but you overlook it in order to express your concern. Lunatic is supposed to have one of the better healing abilities among the New Zanzibar Overed. Why is she still laid up in a hospital bed weeks later. Isn't her leg all regenerated now?

"Yeah, it came in okay, but this is pretty much the end for me."

"Instructor Luna?"

Claire steps forward and puts her hand on Lunatic's shoulder. Despite her stone face, Claire's poise and shaking hands tell you the truth.

"Don't look at me like that. I ain't gonna turn Germ yet. The problem is that I came close last time. I could feel it. I just can't fight without pushing that boundary anymore. So I've been here, resting up."

"Are you leaving?"

"I'll still be around to teach you if I need to, Claire. But I just can't serve in a combat role any more. My encroachment's just...too much. Maybe it's time I really focus on being a civilian instead of a soldier. Settle down or something."

You can't imagine anybody settling for Lunatic, personally. You're slapped in the face with that magazine, and you suddenly have an urge to gouge your eyes out.

"I didn't ask for your input, boy! I have dreams of starting a family too, you know!"

Claire takes Lunatic's hands and clasps them in her own. You feel like this is a tender moment for the two of them and you'll just get in the way, so you keep your mouth shut and take a few steps back.

"You'll have a wonderful family someday, Luna. I know that you'll give them even more love than you gave me."

"Jesus, girl," Lunatic smiles brightly, "You're a sweet thing, ain't ya? But you know we're already family, right? We'll always be sisters."

Ugh, this is just too much. You step outside the room and cross your arms. ...Family, huh? You guess you don't even know what having one feels like. You think you ought to be more upset, or sad, or maybe even jealous, but it's all one incomprehensible mess to you. Maybe someday you could give that a shot, try it out for a bit.

"Ah, darling. Look."

Hm? What does Claire want now? You turn to see her dressed in the pink robe you swiped from that mansion. The simple floral pattern and soft silk is very soothing to the eyes. It seems like while you weren't looking, Claire found a large ribbon to tie around her waist and put on a pair of sandals. You guess that's how you're supposed to wear something like this.

"Do you like it? Luna said you brought this back for me from the mission site. She said you risked your life to give me this simple gift," Claire covers her mouth with her sleeve and her cheeks turn red, "If you'd like, I can attempt some traditional Japanese techniques while wearing this. I've been doing research on some foreign positions and..."

Sayonara, Claire.

And that's the end of the arc. I wish I could pad it out more but, really, we've hit every goalpost. What are your thoughts?

I liked it. But it's a bit too short for my tastes.
>>
>>32560965
A family of empty beer bottles is not how things work, Lunatic.

Well, this thread was, again, just the last fight of the arc plus the wrapup. Time constraints from work prevented me from getting this out last time. I would have liked to make it longer, but the filler would leave a bad taste in my mouth, personally
>>
>>32560985
I liked it. Last fight felt good, specially after we curb stomped all the other guys. Was nice to have a decent challenge.

Beach episode soon I hope?
>>
>>32560985
loved it
>we got to keep the sword we swiped right, looters rights
have Captains cubs call her Aunt Luna andGrandma Void

I personally enjoy the world building and social aspect of the quest more than the combat. Rather than pad things out I am glad that we ended where we did.

UMI DA

Oh, also, suggestions and questions are fine. I'll be hanging out for a little while longer
>>
>>32561159
Hope we can get some down time to hang out with everyone. I like the fast pace of this but it feels like we have to pass by some character that I would like to hang with. Also it's how we get more powers so that's a plus.

>>32561247
I agree. Socializing with the others is pretty entertaining.
>>
>>32561247
More social links? More social links it is, then.

>A small, spaded tail pokes out from under her skirt and two small nubs grow on her forehead...are those horns?

What syndrome is this? Is Rin a Chimera too?
>>
>>32561683
Chimera or Exile. Both can grow bone like that.

>>32560459
Oh boy. Just woke up, time for DXQ! Let's see...
>Claire made a full recovery from her illness

Oh for fuck sake. I was actually enjoying the chance to interact with someone other than this bitch for a change.

Oh thank the merciful Christ.

Either that or Fallen Angel was using her Angel Halo to mess with her.
