Chapter 017
Everything Happens For A Reason
At the same time Kingsman is sitting on top of the roof of his house staring into the cherry blossom forest as the sun is shining behind the trees and Kingsman says
“Now this is a hell of a way to start your morning” Kingsman jumps down off of his roof and goes into the back door of his house and he sees Kenji,Riku,Itsuki,Dai and Akita all sitting at the table and before any of them can say anything, Kingsman says
“All of you have to leave, none of you can stay in my home anymore” Everyone is *shocked* and Riku says
“Was it because of what we did in the Fujiwara Region, Sensei?” Akita says
“Kingsman you can’t kick them out! You brought them here after saving them from their homes, you love them too much to send them back out into the world alone” Kingsman says
“You’re right. I’m kicking all of you out, everyone of you has to be gone by tomorrow” Kingsman walks to the stairs and Akita is *shocked* and says
“What!? Kingsman none of us are leaving, we’re a family” Kingsman says
“There’s no other options” Akita says
“We’re not going to abandon you Kingsman, no matter what! We all love you too much to leave” Kingsman punches the wall shaking the entire house and he screams
“THERE'S NO OTHER OPTION!” Akita is *scared* and takes a stepback by Kingsman shouting at her and Kingsman walks up the stairs and goes into their bedroom and slams the door and Akita sheds a tear and Kenji says
“Mom, are you ok?” Akita whips her eyes and says
“I'm fine, everyone just stay right here. I’ll be right back” Akita walks up stairs and slowly opens their bedroom door and she walks in and closes it behind her and she sees Kingsman sitting on the bed looking at the floor with his hands *shaking in anger* and she says
“Kingsman, what’s going on?” Kingsman says
“There’s a high possibility that we're going to go to war, and I don’t want any of you here” Akita says
“Kingsman, even if me and Hana we’re to leave those kids downstairs won’t leave you. Especially when they find out you're going to be in danger” Kingsman says
“All of you are leaving, end of discussion” Akita says
“Kingsman–” Kingsman says
“I won’t lose anyone else! Not again!” Kingsman stands up but Akita walks over to Kingsman and grabs one of his hands as she says
“You don’t always have to handle everything on your own. You’ve trained them to fight and defend themselves, they can help” Kingsman says
“The things you see in wars aren’t something for the eyes of children, men can barely hold up in wars. Children will lose so much of themselves in wars when they come home you won’t be able to recognize them. I won’t put them through that” Kingsman walks towards the door and says
“You all have until tomorrow to leave, or I’ll make you leave!” But Akita runs in front of him and just hugs him and he tries to push her away but she won’t let go and Kingsman says
“Akita, let me go” Akita starts *crying* and says
“Never! I’ve scarified my entire life because I loved you so much and I won’t abandon you now!” Kingsman says
“Akita…Please just let me go” Akita says
“We’re not going anywhere, please stop! Don’t push us away, you don’t have to protect all of us anymore” Kingsman says
“Even if I change my mind now, you and Hana aren’t safe!” Akita says
“We are perfectly fine, if anybody comes after us… I-I’ll handle them” Kingsman says
“I won’t put you in that kind of danger” Akita says
“I’ll go back to fighting if I need to, just please don't leave” Kingsman says
"You hate fighting, I won't force you into doing something you hate" Akita says
"If it means you will stay with us I will train alongside all of you" Kingsman says
"Akita...Why can't you just listen to me?" Akita says
"If I listened to you we'd be in the mountains with no contact with anyone, and everyone in the house would be training none stop" Kingsman *chuckles* as he says
"I don't see a problem with that, all of the problems we deal with are because of me and I would be keeping everyone safe" Akita says
"But you'd be depriving everyone of the best experiences life has to offer" Kingsman says
"Life is very dangerous, someone can have a bad day and now your entire life stops" Akita says
"But life is also beautiful and amazing in the best times, think about us!" Kingsman *laughs* as he says
"We met through trauma, that's not exactly the best way to form a love story" Akita says
"But it was ours and I love every moment of it, the good times and the bad. No matter what we went through we were always able to talk it through in a calm manner" Kingsman says
"Akita?" Akita looks up at Kingsman as he says
"Do you know the man you fell in love with?" Akita says
"Of course I do!" Kingsman says
"If I told you all the things I've ever done would you still love me the same way?" Akita says
"There is nothing you could tell me that would make me love you any less" Kingsman says
"Akita-" Akita says
"NO! I know you're going to try and scare me and make me leave, but I'm not going anywhere! I'll do anything else, but I won't abandon you" Kingsman *sighs* as he says
"I've never wanted to do anything but protect you. But you always have to make things difficult" Akita says
"Because I know I don't have to worry about myself when I'm with you, but I do need to worry about you! You put everything on the line to protect me, so I do the same for you!" Kingsman says
"I don't need anyone to protect me" Akita says
"That's exactly why I do it!" Kingsman puts his hand on her head as he kisses her forehead and *chuckles* as he says
"Your like a dumb puppy that doesn't know it's being abused!" Akita says
"And your like the cold heartless monster that found it and took it in" Kingsman *laughs* and says
"I didn't give you a compliment...So this was your plan?" Akita looks up as she says
"Huh?" Kingsman says
"When you talk to me it just calms me down, was that why you came up here?" Akita says
"I know sometimes you act rashly because you have a lot of stress, and sometimes you need a calm voice in your ear" Kingsman says
"...I'd go to war for you, would you go to war for me?" Akita says
"Without a second thought" Kingsman *laughs* and says
"That's the dumbest thing you could ever possibly do, but I love you just for your stupidity. Because I'll be there just to save you from those dumb decisions" Akita *chuckles* and says
"And I'll be there just to make sure you don't fall apart!"
At the same time Kenji,Dai and Riku are sitting at the kitchen table as Itsuki’s standing next to the table and Kenji says
“It’s fine, you guys don’t have to leave. I don’t know what’s wrong with my dad but my mom will stop him” Itsuki walks to the back door and Itsuki says
“It’s fine Kenji, Sensei doesn’t want us here anymore. I can understand why, but please tell him I’m sorry for disappointing him” Itsuki turns around and grabs the door knob but as he does Kenji gets up and grabs Itsuki’s arm and says
“He said all of us have until tomorrow to leave, so at least wait until tomorrow Itsuki” Itsuki says
“I wouldn’t want to upset Sensei anymore then he already is, just look at the wall” Kenji says
“My father probably has a lot on his mind and–” Riku says
“But I’ve never seen him that mad, not even when he saved us when we were about to die. There really has to be something going on, he even yelled at Akita. Whatever's going on is very serious” Dai stands up and says
“I think you're right Itsuki” Dai walks up to the backdoor but Kenji puts his hand in front of Dai and says
“What the hell is wrong with all of you? None of you are leaving!” Dai says
“I wish we all could have gone on more adventures together, but it looks like this is where we part ways. I hope all of you stay safe” Riku stands up and walks beside Dai and says
“Same, it’s sad to know this is our last time together” Kenji says
“Dai, we just started our adventures together” Dai walks by Kenji and Kenji lets go of Itsuki to stop Dai but then Itsuki walks out and Kenji tries to turn around and grab Itsuki but then Riku walks out behind him and he turns around and tries to grab him too but he falls on the ground and as Kenji gets up and runs out of the door he sees Itsuki facing down the hill towards the village, Dai is facing the opposite side of the hill to where the pond Kingsman made is and Riku is facing the forest and Kenji runs outside but Itsuki walks down the hill, Dai jumps off of the cliff, and Riku walks into the forest and Kenji screams
“NO!” Kenji falls to his knees with *tears in his eyes* as he says
“Wait! None of you have to go! Please don’t leave, we're supposed to be a team! We're supposed to be FAMILY!” Kenji slowly gets up and walks back into the house and he closes the door and puts his head on it and he starts *crying* and says
“We were supposed to become the strongest…Together!” He turns around and is *shocked* as he sees Riku,Itsuki, and Dai all sitting at the table and Kenji says
“How is that possible!? I saw all of you leave!” Everyone looks around *confused* and Dai says
“What the hell is going on?” Suddenly a pool of darkness forms on the ceiling and then a piece of the darkness falls like a raindrop on the floor but as everyone is looking at the ceiling Kingsman comes out of the small piece of darkness on the floor and he says
“None of you ever left, I showed all of you a fake reality and allowed you to make your own decisions. But I’ll explain what happens next to all of you, me and Kaito had a talk and there’s only two ways this can go: peace or war and there’s a high possibility that a war is going to happen. At first I didn’t want any of you here, but I guess I was neglecting how well all of you can handle yourselves” Riku says
“So we’re fighting in a war?” Kingsman says
“There’s still a chance that there will be peace, but if we do go to war if any of you wish not to fight I’ll understand” Dai says
“I think you just continue to forget that were some of the strongest warriors in the world” Riku says
“We haven’t backed down from a single fight before and you thought a war is what would scare us” Kingsman *laughs* and says
“You all keep surprising me more and more” Itsuki says
“So that’s why you were so mad, you 're worried about us. I know we’re your students, and I’ve had a Sensei before but he never cared this much. It’s like you truly–” Kingsman says
“Love all of you? Yes, and while it’s true all of you had Sensei’s, none of you had real fathers. I am really proud of all of you and how far you’ve all come, and for what it’s worth I do see all of you as my sons” Riku stands up and steps up to Kingsman and says
“Wow, but If we’re your sons then you can’t kill us” Kingsman is *confused* and says
“Wha–” But Kingsman is interrupted by Riku creating wind chains wrapping all around Kingsman and restraining his hands to his side, Riku says
“Itsuki, little help” Itsuki stands up and walks next to Riku and says
“Sure” Itsuki shoots Kingsman with his lightning infusing it with Riku’s wind and Kingsman is being electrocuted and he *screams in pain* as Itsuki says
“Dai, it’s kind of cold don’t you think?” Dai stands up and walks over and *smiles* and says
“It is kind of cold” Dai blast Kingsman with fire infusing it with the wind and lightning and Dai says
“Hey Kenji, don’t you think it’s getting a little hot?” Kenji walks over and stands next to them and says
“It is kind of hot, and an uncontrolled flame is dangerous” Kenji slowly starts to freeze Kingsman from his feet up and as Kingsman starts to freeze Kingsman *chuckles* and says
“Your right, I won’t kill any of you…But Tadashi!” Everyone is *shocked* and Kenji fully freezes Kingsman freezes as Tadashi slowly walks downstairs but as he gets downstairs and he sees Kingsman is frozen solid, he jumps infront of Kingsman and is growling at them and Dai rushes Tadashi and Tadashi tries to slam his paws down on Dai but Dai catches them both and Riku uses his wind to pull Tadashi’s back legs off of the ground and Tadashi slips and Dai twist his paws around and slams Tadashi into the floor.
Kenji covers his hand in his ice and he reaches for Tadashi but Tadashi let’s out a deafening roar and everyone covers there ears and Tadashi gets back up and Tadashi headbutts Dai launching him back into a wall and Tadashi rushes Itsuki and hits him with the back of his paw sending Itsuki flying and crashing into the backdoor as Tadashi turns around and he sees Riku and Kenji standing between him and Kingsman, Tadashi rushes them both but Riku pushes him back with his wind and Kenji shoots balls of ice at Tadashi but he dodges it and the ball of ice hits the door freezing Itsuki to it and Kenji keeps firing them but Tadashi is dodging all of them until Riku puts a force field around him and Riku uses his wind to slow down Tadashi’s movement.
Tadashi is still able to dodge the ice ball but it grazes his tail and Tadashi’s tail slowly starts to freeze and Tadashi lays on the ground and extends his nails and sticks them into the ground and starts crawling and Riku tries to amplify his wind to keep Tadashi back but Tadashi doesn’t stop crawling and as Tadashi makes it to the edge of the force field Tadashi blows out fire from his mouth onto the force field and it engulfs in flames and Riku tries to speed up the force field but he can’t control it at all and Tadashi jumps through the force field destroying it and as Tadashi is in the air he slams his frozen tail into Riku’s head slamming him into the ground.
Tadashi rushes up to Kingsman and tries to slashs at the ice around Kingsman but suddenly the ice around Kingsman gets even thicker causing Tadashi slash to only leave a large scratch in the ice and Tadashi lifts his paw to swing again but Kenji rushes Tadashi and grabs his tail and pulls him back making Tadashi miss his swing at Kingsman’s ice but Tadashi walks forward and tries to slash the ice but he’s suddenly hit by lightning from the side and suddenly he’s pulled back even harder.
Tadashi looks back and sees Itsuki is also pulling his tail and Tadashi struggles to move but he’s still able to move close enough to slash Kingsman’s ice once again and the ice starts cracking and he tries to swing again but he pulled back extremely far and as he looks back again he sees Dai is also pulling on his tail and now Tadashi can’t move forward at all and Dai says
“Freeze him, NOW!” Kenji starts freezing Tadashi as Tadashi’s about to be fully frozen he roars sending a shockwave at Kingsman destroying the extra ice Kenji put around him but the original layer is still untouched and everoyne let’s go of Tadashi’s tail Itsuki says
“Wow, Tadashi broke the extra ice around Sensei. But didn’t even touch the original layer” Dai says
“There’s no need for luck when I'm here, your welcome” Kenji is about to speak when he hears the ice cracking and everyone turns around and sees the ice around Kingsman cracking and Kenji refreezes the ice around Kingsman but the ice cracks once again and all of them watch as the ice shatters but there’s nothing underneath it and Kenji steps up and is *shocked* and says
“What the!? But how?” But as he turns around he sees Itsuki and Dai are knocked out on the floor but before he can do anything a voice from behind him says
“Nice try” Kenji’s chopped on his neck and he passes out and Kingsman looks at all of them and says
“I am truly proud of all of you, and I know when all of you get older you’ll be able to overcome any challenge in front of you, well unless it's me of course. As your Father and Sensei I am obligated to never lose to any of you” Kingsman looks at Tadashi and flicks his nose breaking the ice around him and Tadashi looks at Kenji and walks towards him but Kingsman says
“Bed!” Tadashi walks away from Kenji and goes upstairs and Kingsman says
“I’m tired of all of you sleeping in my kitchen” Kingsman picks up everyone and takes them to there rooms and puts them in there bed and as Kingsman puts Kenji in his bed he leaves his room closing the door behind him but he notices Hana’s door is cracked and he knocks on it but there’s no response and he knocks again and says
“Little one?” He slowly opens the door but as he opens the door he just sees Tadashi sniffing around for Hana and Kingsman is *confused* and says
“Little one!?” Kingsman walks to her closet and opens it but she’s not there and he walks over and looks under her bed but she’s not there but then he notices a piece of paper on her tea party table and he picks it up and it says
“Daddy I left because I know you don’t want us here” He notices there’s tears on the paper and then a large gust of wind blows through the room and Kingsman notices the window is open.
At the same time Hana is walking through the forest *crying* and holding her bear until she trips over a root coming out of the ground scratching her knee and dropping her bear into a bush and she holds her *knee in pain* and she's still *crying* but she notices she lost her bear and she stands up and walks into the bush looking for her bear but as she comes through the bush she bumps into one of the Forest Demons and she says
“I'm sorry I didn’t mean–” But she’s interrupted by The Demon grabbing her by the throat and she’s struggling to breath and as The Demon takes a step it steps on her bear and it squeaks making The Demon throw her and punch the bear and as she lands hard on the ground she hits her head on a tree and she can barely keep her eyes open and as she opens her eyes she sees The Demon walking through the trees towards her and she says
“I’m sorry please stop!” The Demon rushes her but before it can grab her there a flash of light right in front of her and large shockwave destroys part of the forest and sending her flying into a bush and as she crawls out of the bush she sees half of the forest is destroyed and she back up but bumps into someone and she turn around with her hands up and her eyes closed and says
“Please don’t hurt me!” But as she opens her eyes she sees Kingsman towering over her and she is *shocked* and says
“Daddy?” Kingsman is *angry* and says
“What are you doing out here!? I told you how dangerous this forest is!” Hana starts *crying* and says
“I heard you scream at mommy that we had to leave” Kingsman *sighs* and says
“You think you understand what we were talking about, but you don’t. I wasn’t talking to your mother, or any of you for that matter” Hana starts *crying even harder* and says
“I didn’t know daddy, i’m sorry” Kingsman says
“What did I tell you to do when you didn't understand something?” Hana whips her tears and says
“Ask someone” Kingsman says
“Exactly, and you didn’t ask questions and you got yourself hurt. Next time ask me or your mother about what you don’t understand, ok?” Hana says
“Ok” Kingsman picks her up and takes her back home but as they make it out of the forest Kingsman stops and looks at the back of the house as he says
“Little one?” Hana says
“Yes” Kingsman says
“How did you get out of your room?” Hana says
“I used my bear” But then Hana starts *crying* again and Kingsman says
“What’s wrong?” Hana *through her tears*, says
“I lost my bear!” Kingsman says
“We’ll get him back in the morning, ok?” Hana wipes her tears and says
“Ok” Kingsman goes into the back door and takes Hana back to her room and puts her in her bed and tucks her in and says
“Goodnight Little one” Hana says
“Goodnight daddy” Kingsman walks out of her room and into his room.
The next morning Akita wakes up but Kingsman isn’t in the bed and she gets up and goes downstairs but she still doesn’t see Kingsman so she checks all of the kids rooms and sees all of them sleeping but doesn’t see Kingsman in any of them and she’s gets *worried* and she runs into the backyard and she doesn’t see any of them and she walks to the edge of the forest and tries to listen for sounds but she doesn’t hear anything and then she notices a shadow blocking the sun and as she turns around she sees Kingsman sitting on the roof in front of the sun and she walks close to the house and says
“Kingsman, what are you looking at?” Kingsman says
“The gate” Akita says
“Why are you looking at the gate?” Kingsman says
“Waiting for some friends” Akita says
“Who?” Kingsman stands up and says
“No one now” Kingsman takes a step and he disappears.
At the same time a group of Sasaki’s soldiers have just came through the gate and Kaito meets them in the street and the man in front of all the other soldiers says
“My name is Miyamoto Tamotsu, leader of squad B of Lord Sasaki army. We have come to hear both of your decisions, excuse me, where is Kingsman?” But he hears a voice behind him says
“Right here!” But as he turns around he sees all of his soldiers knocked out except one who Kingsman is holding in the air by his neck and Kingsman says
“Tell Sasaki, No! Tell all of the region leaders that there’s going to be a meeting of all the region leaders to discuss something. If they refuse to come then there giving all control and leadership of there region to me!” Miyamoto says
“There–” Miyamoto is interrupted by the sound of his soldier *screaming in pain* as Kingsman breaks his wrist and Kingsman says
“Unless the next words that come out of your mouth are “Yes sir” followed by you immediately leaving my region then he will suffer” Miyamoto is *shocked* and says
“...Yes sir” Miyamoto leaves the village and Kingsman drops the soldier on the ground and he crutches down to talk to the soldier as he says
“What’s your name?” The Soldier *still in pain* as he's *shaking with fear*, says
“I’m sorry sir Kingsman, I just needed this job to support my family I would never disrespect you” Kingsman *laughs* and says
“I asked for your name, not an explanation” The Solider says
“K-Koda” Kingsman says
“Well Koda, I'm sorry that you had to be my leverage but its fine I only popped your wrist out of place. I’ll even put it back” Before Koda can say anything Kingsman pops his wrist back in place making him *screams in pain* and Koda is *nervous* as he says
“S-So your not going to kill me?” Kingsman says
“No, would you like me to?” Koda is *shocked* and says
“No, it’s just all the stories I’ve heard about you have all just been portraying you so differently.” Kaito *laughs* and says
“Here we go!” Kingsman says
“Wait Kaito, let him speak. And how’s that?” Koda says
“They portray you as if your more monster than man, like a raging beast the world can only hope to calm before it destroys the world. I’ve even heard in almost every village your name is actually illegal to say” Kingsman *laughs* and says
“The stories you’ve heard portray part of me perfectly, none of the stories you’ve heard have ever mentioned me being calm. I’ve always been upset or sad. Because when I’m feeling like that then I don’t care about anyone or anything, but when I’m calm we can sit down and have a reasonable conversation without me killing you. Have you ever been told your going to be apart of a team to assassinate me, but suddenly it gets called off a few days later?” Koda says
“I...I can’t tell you that” Kingsman says
“You don’t have to, every single region does the same thing when they're thinking they're tired of me and want me gone. But there never dumb enough to blindly storm into my home and attack me because they know what will happen, but what they will do is send a scout to monitor me for two days and see if I’m even slightly upset because if I don’t seem like I’m extremely happy then none of those plans will go through” Koda is *shocked* and thinks
“What? Is that really why we’ve called off so many attempts before they even got started!?” Kingsman says
“Do you know why Koda?” Koda says
“Because your strong and we don’t have enough information to take you out?” Kingsman *laughs* and says
“See if I’m calm I might not kill any of you, but when I’m happy I’ll leave myself extremely vulnerable giving you all a chance at a swift victory. They know that from our last time facing each other” Koda says
“You fought Lord Sasaki and neither one of you died!?” Kingsman look at Kaito and they both fall on the ground *laughing* and Koda is *confused* and says
“What? Did I say something wrong?” Kingsman and Kaito stand up and Kingsman says
“Are you going to tell him?” Kaito says
“Koda, we didn’t just fight Sasaki. We fought every region and all there warriors at once” Koda is *shocked* and says
“What!? How is that possible!?” Kingsman says

“Kaito took half, I took the other half” Kaito says
“It was a hard fight, but me and Kingsman came out on top and that’s why our region still stands to this day” Kingsman says
“Wasn’t really that hard, except Mano and a couple others. Everybody else was nothing” Koda says
“How powerful are the two of you?” Kingsman says
“I mean that was a long time ago and we’ve gotten even stronger from then” Koda says
“Wait, is Kaito stronger than you? Is that why he leads the region?” Kingsman says
“Hell no!” Kaito says
“Of course!” Kingsman turns around and says
“You think you're stronger than me?” Kaito says
“We are tied Fifty-Fifty, aren’t we?” Kingsman says
“Most of them we’re from when we're still young” Kaito says
“What about the other half?” Kingsman says
“You cheated the other half of the time, but I’m far stronger than you!” Kaito says
“Would you like to break the tie right now?” Kingsman and Kaito lock eyes and then they both share a *smile* and Kingsman darkness starts surging all over him and Kaito Icy Sun Flames surge all over him and Koda is *shocked* and he starts crawling back as Kingsman and Kaito step towards each other and Koda stands up and says
“Wait! You both don’t have to fight at this moment” Kingsman says
“How about just a quick spar?” Kaito says
“I’m fine with that” Koda says
“No, please!” Kingsman says
“Fine, this can wait. But when we fight, I promise I’m not going to take it easy on you” Kaito says
“I hope you didn’t think I would” Kingsman turns to Koda and says
“How’s your hand?” Koda says
“It hurts, but nothing I can’t handle” Kingsman says
“Go get some sake and you’ll forget about the pain, but be careful or you’ll forget your a soldier entirely” Koda says
“Thank you, but what are you going to do to everyone else?” Kingsman says
“Don’t worry about it, you're a part of our village now. Go to the bar” Koda is *shocked* and says
“Huh?” Kaito steps closer to Koda and says
“Did he stutter?” Koda is *scared* and says
“N-No…My lord” Kingsman turns around and him and Kaito start to talk but Koda looks around *confused* and thinks
“Where the hell is a bar?” Koda turns back to Kaito and Kingsman and says
“Excuse me” Kingsman turns around and says
“What did I just tell you!” Koda says
“I understand my lord, but where is a bar?” Kingsman says
“Find it, you’ve got ten minutes. If you don’t find it you’ll lose your arm” Koda is *shocked* and says
“Huh?” A black slash appears on Koda’s arm and Koda is *shocked* and runs off and Kingsman *laughs* and Kaito says
“Why’d you spare him? You usually don't want anyone new in this village” Kingsman says
“He doesn’t want to be a warrior, and you know in every other region they cannot do anything without their leaders permission. Plus he has a family” Kaito says
“Are you going to leave them in the other village? Or are you going to liberate his entire family?” Kingsman says
“I’ll go with him and get them later” Kaito says
“What are we going to do with the rest of them?” Kingsman says
“Tell Saigo to take them to another village and lock them up there, I don’t want them to know what’s going on just yet” Kaito says
“Fine, but remember Kingsman we’re trying to go peaceful first” Kingsman says
“I know, that’s why I didn’t kill any of them just knocked them out” Kaito says
“I hope this goes smooth” Kingsman says
“Maybe it will, maybe it won’t. Either way it goes we will be in control of this world. Whether it’s destroyed or intact, we’ll change everything regardless” Kaito says
“We’ve fought enough wars, let’s hope we don’t have to get bloody” Kingsman says
“Stop worrying about it, we’ll only take it to that point if they make us” Kaito says
“Yeah, you’re right. I’ll make sure your the first to know when all the leaders get here” Kingsman says
“Good, just make sure you don’t worry yourself to death. Everything will be fine” Kingsman turns around and takes one step and he disappears.
At the same time Akita is cooking and she *sighs* and says
“I hate when he leaves and doesn’t tell me where he’s going” But a voice from behind her says
“I didn’t go anywhere” Akita jumps in *fear* and turns around and sees Kingsman and says
“Kingsman, when did you get back?” Kingsman says
“I never left, but what are you making?” Akita says
“Oh umm…Some pancakes” Kingsman says
“My favorite” Kingsman turns around and sits down at the table and Akita gives Kingsman a plate of pancakes but as she sits the plate down Kingsman grabs her wrist and stands up as he says
“Sit down” Akita sits down and Kingsman says
“I want to thank you for everything you’ve done for me and our family, and even the people I’ve brought in off of the streets” Akita says
“Of course, no matter what happens or who you bring in, if you trust them than so do I. If you love them then I love them as well” Kingsman snaps and says
“Even the ones that you're afraid of?” Tadashi comes downstairs and walks over to Kingsman and Akita jumps on the table and she’s *scared* but in a shaky voice, she says
“Y-Yes…Even the ones I'm scared off” Kingsman says
“Good, I love all of you so much, I think this deserves a group hug” Akita is *shocked* and says
“But you hate hugs” Kingsman *smiles* and says
“I can get over it this one time, now come on” Kingsman hugs Akita and is holding her and she tries to let go but she can’t and she is *confused* and says
“Kingsman?” Kingsman says
“Did you forget it was a group hug? Come here Tadashi” Tadashi puts his paws on the top of the table and Akita is *shocked* and says
“Kingsman, please let me go!” Kingsman says
“Group hug, Tadashi up!” Tadashi jumps up on the table and Akita starts trying to shake loose of Kingsman’s grip and Tadashi walks towards them but as he gets close Akita is able to shake free from Kingsman grip and Akita runs upstairs and Kingsman *laughs* but after a few seconds he looks at Tadashi and says
“Go catch her” Tadashi runs up stairs and Kingsman waits and listens then a couple seconds later he hears her scream and he starts *laughing* and then she comes running downstairs with Tadashi right behind her and she jumps into Kingsman arms and he’s still just *laughing* and she says
“Please make him stop chasing me” Kingsman says
“Tadashi, bed” Tadashi walks upstairs and Kingsman says
“Relax Akita, Tadashi is loyal to me and will follow my commands. So you can relax he won’t do anything against my word” Kingsman can feel Akita shaking very bad and Akita says
“I know, but I'm afraid of big animals” Kingsman says
“Why? You know I’ll always protect you” Akita says
“I know, but years ago my brother and I we’re attacked by a pack of wild wolves and they bite me on my arm and from that day I just can’t handle being around large animals” Kingsman puts her down and says
“Why didn’t you tell me this? I just thought it was fear because he was new, but you let me torture you with trauma from your past” Akita is *shocked* and says
“I never thought it was important, I–” She stops talking as Kingsman silently walks away and goes upstairs and seconds later Kenji and Itsuki come downstairs and Kenji sees the pancakes still on the table and sits down and eats one of them and then slides the plate to Itsuki and he eats the last one and says
“Thank you” Akita turns around and looks at him and says
“Your welcome” Kenji says
“Hey mom do you know what we're going to be doing today? I just saw dad and it looked like he was about to go back to sleep” Akita says
“No, your father might not have you doing much today” Itsuki says
“That means we can train with each other today” Kenji says
“We can go right now” Kenji and Itsuki gets up and runs out of the back door and Akita says
“Be safe” As the back door closes Akita looks back at the staircase staring until she hears someone walking towards the stairs but then she notices it’s Riku coming downstairs and she walks over to the stove and grabs a plate of pancakes and puts them on the table and Riku sits down and eats one and notices Akita is staring at the stairs and says
“Excuse me, are you ok Akita?” Akita looks at him and says
“Yes i’m fine, it’s just Kingsman went upstairs and he hasn’t come back down” Riku says
“You know Sensei, he’s probably just sleep” Akita says
“You're probably right” Riku says
“Where is everyone else?” Akita says
“Kenji and Itsuki said they were going to start training and Dai–” Akita is interrupted by Dai stomping downstairs and Akita says
“Is right there” Dai walks over to the table and grabs Riku’s plate and eats his pancakes and Dai says
“Where’s Sensei?” Riku says
“Sleeping, you want to go wake him up?” Dai is *shocked* and says
“I guess, I finally have time to go and fight those demons again” Riku says
“They only come out at night Dai” Dai says
“Then I guess we’ll be training until night time” Riku says
“We?” Dai says
“Me and you are going to be training together” Riku says
“If Sensei is sleeping then i’m about–” Riku is interrupted by Dai grabbing him and running out the back door and Akita walks upstairs is slowly walking across the hallway looking around for Tadashi but then she sees through Hana’s cracked door Tadashi is sleeping on her bed right next to her and she walks to her bedroom door and opens it and as she walks in she sees Kingsman laying in there bed looking at the ceiling and she says
“Kingsman, are you ok? You left while we were talking” But he doesn’t respond and she walks over to him and shakes him but he still doesn’t respond or even looks at her and she says
“Did I do something wrong?” Akita *sighs* and Kingsman says
“You’ve never told me this story before. You let me have Tadashi chasing you around, I thought this was just a fear of a new animal being here, but you have been attacked and have been hurt by wild animals before. The main reason I can’t just let this go is because I've told you about what happened to my brother,my mother and my father and all the people I considered family. There is nothing you don’t know about my past, I thought it was just fear but I tormented you with your trauma” Akita says
“I’m sorry, I hope you don’t feel like I was intentionally keeping this story from you. It was just an embarrassing fear of mine that I wanted to get over” Kingsman says
“Right” He stands up and turns towards the door but Akita grabs his hand and says
“Are you still mad?” Kingsman says
“I’m not buying it” Akita says
“Huh?’’ Kingsman says
“Akita, you’ve been so scared before you pissed on yourself after I threw you in the air. But that fear is embarrassing, I’m not buying it” Akita says
“I didn’t want you to look at me as weak like you do because of my fears” Kingsman says
“What? I’ve never looked at you as weak, hell you're stronger than I am. You can control your temper and you want to save and protect people, you cherish the lives of people no matter how horrible they are. But me I’m weak, a man who succumbs to his impulses and his anger like a raging bull, but you are strong enough to put your hand up and have a bull stop in it’s tracks” Kingsman walks out of the room and she’s *blushing* and *smiles* and Kingsman walks into a dark corner and disappears.
At the same time Kenji and Itsuki are talking deep in the forest and Kenji says
“I don’t know Itsuki” Itsuki says
“Come on, don’t you want to get stronger so we can impress Sensei” Kenji says
“My father isn’t exactly hard to impress, give him a bottle of sake he’ll be impressed that you were able to get it” Itsuki says
“Why does Sensei drink so much?” Kenji says
“He said something like our voices become too much for him to handle and this is the best way to stop them. Or like that” Itsuki says
“Hmm, but you know what I mean Kenji. Make him proud” Kenji says
“Itsuki, he is proud of us. He’s said that multiple times” Itsuki says
“He said he was, but I just feel like he expects more of us and I want him to know that i’ll go the extra mile to show him I’m determined to become one of the strongest warriors in the world” Kenji says
“Fine, let’s get this over with” Kenji and Itsuki sit on the ground and starts meditating and Itsuki and Kenji start breathing but after a few seconds Kenji *sighs* and says
“This isn’t working Itsuk–” But as he opens his eyes, he sees Itsuki floating on a cloud with symbols all over him wrapped in lightning and Kenji stands up and is *amazed* and says
“Wow” Kenji tries to reach out and touch Itsuki but his hand is shocked and is paralyzed and Kenji falls to his knees and tries to get the lightning off of his hand but can’t get it off of his hands until he freezes his hand and then he thinks
“Damn, his lightning is stronger than ever before. But how could he do this in such a short period of time!? Forget it I won’t let you pass me up Itsuki!'' Kenji gets back in his spot and starts meditating again but he’s trying to meditate hard but he’s struggling and is stressing to much until he’s able to calm down his breathing and he calms himself down and he starts meditating and Kenji starts slowly floating up on his water Kenji floats off of the ground with his water underneath him and as he’s quickly rising to Itsuki’s level but suddenly light blue eyes appear in his head and he falls back off his water *terrified* onto the ground and he’s breathing heavily and says
“What the hell was that!?” Itsuki’s cloud lands back on the ground and the glowing symbols on him disappear and he opens his eyes and stands up and says
“Kenji, are you ok?” Itsuki walks over to Kenji and picks him up and Kenji says
“I saw somethings eyes in my mind” But before Itsuki can say anything they here clapping coming from behind them and as they turn around they see a man with a straw hat on covering his face standing in the treeline clapping and Itsuki is *shocked* and says
“Who the hell are you?” The man walks out of the tree line and into the clearing and says
“A name isn’t very important when you're dead. But for this short time you can call me Goto” Kenji says
“Why are you here!?” Goto says
“Lord Sasaki has asked me to watch over all of you, basically i’m waiting for the ok to kill all of you” Goto jumps into the air dodging Kenji’s ice as he tried to freeze his feet and Goto *laughs* and says
“Oh not just yet Kenji” Itsuki pulls out his sword and Goto *laughs* and says
“I can’t kill you just yet Itsuki” Goto walks behind a tree and Itsuki slashes the air and launches a giant slashes through the air destroying multiple trees but Goto is gone and Itsuki says
“Damn it, he’s fast!” Kenji is *shocked* and says
“He’s gone!” Itsuki says
“No, he said he was suppose to be watching us. We can’t see him but he can see us” Suddenly a twig snaps in the trees behind them and Itsuki turns around and throws his sword into the trees but Kingsman catches it and walks out of the trees and says
“If you wanted me to leave you could have said that” Itsuki says
“I’m sorry Sensei, I didn’t know it was you” Kingsman says
“It’s fine, all of you have tried to kill me already. But this aside you’ve gotten a lot stronger, how?” Itsuki says
“Well I remembered you meditated before you fought us so one night I started meditating as well and I actually felt like I had become one with my lightning for a few seconds, and every night after that I meditated until one night some lightning hit the top of the house, so I started meditating outside” Kingsman says
“Wait, you weren’t afraid when you saw Raijin?” Itsuki says
“No, we spoke the first time we met” Kingsman is *shocked* and says
“Well that’s interesting, they usually don’t speak until you have proven yourself as a worthy warrior. You're something special Itsuki” Kenji says
“Wait what?” Kingsman says
“I told all of you that if you wanted to grow your power you’ll need to train it or you could surround yourself in an element and as you become one with the element your body harnesses it, or they could get it from the gods if they saw you as worthy. That’s why I put all of you in their realms instead of having you all meditate because it could take years for you all to even start obtaining your elements. But I also didn’t want to just throw my sons into exposed elements, but it was disrespectful for all of you to go there without permission. But you all had no other choice left. Itsuki, have you been constantly seeing and speaking to Raijin?” Itsuki says
“Yes” Kingsman grabs Itsuki's shoulder as he *smiles* and says
“You truly are something special, Raijin must have chosen you to become his replacement” Itsuki says
“What!? Sensei I don’t think I can beat him, but I'll do my best!” Kingsman says
“No Itsuki you do not have to fight him, he will give you his power when the time is right. He has already been siphoning more and more of his power into you. You simply need to unlock it as time goes on which means you’ll have the power to create universes with ease and destroy them all the same. Each god forged multiple universes to find a successor to their power. They made the universes to find an heir, and you are one of them” Itsuki says
“Does that mean I’ll become a god as well? If I do then does that mean I have to go to war with the other gods?” Kingsman says
“No! You will be your own god. The old gods hated each other because they all wanted to have control over the other gods. But with all of them being immortal and having infinite power none of them could become stronger than any of the others, but by infusing their power and immortality into someone else it should give one of you the edge you’d need to conquer the other gods. Even if just for a short period of time” Kenji says
“Wait am I going to become one of the gods!?” Kingsman says
“It’s not my choice, if they choose you then yes. But if not then you’ll just have to prove to them they should have chosen you. Understand?” Kenji *smiles* as he says
“Yes sir!” Kingsman says
“All right, Itsuki I want to see how strong you truly are now” Kingsman walks over to the trees Itsuki cut down and picks up two of them and throws them both in the air and says
“Hit them” Itsuki slashes the air cutting them in the air and splitting them in two’s and Kingsman says
“Your swings have gotten stronger, but your sword is to slow, find another way. What’s something that is quick and lethal with range?” Kingsman walks over and grabs the pieces of split trees and throws them in the air and juggles them all and Kingsman says
“Breathe,focus and slow down. Don’t overthink just breathe” Itsuki closes his eyes and breathes and he feels his lightning coursing through him and he thinks
“Breathe, create something quick, lethal and with range” Itsuki uses his lightning to creates a bow and when he opens his eyes everything has slowed down and he fires a arrow at each log and as he blinks everything goes back to normal but before the arrows hit the logs Kingsman jumps up and destroys the arrows and Itsuki is *shocked* and says
“What!? Sensei I did as you said'' Kingsman says
“You're spreading your arrows out too much you only need one arrow to drop multiple targets. Shoot where they're going, not where they are” Itsuki says
“Understood!” Kingsman continues juggling the logs and Itsuki closes his eyes again, breathes slowly and opens his eyes again and he sees all the logs in the same spot and then he takes the shot and he hits all of them with one arrow and Kingsman says
“Good job Itsuki, now boy we need to get you meditating as soon as possible. But as for now I want to see how fast you can react” Kenji says
“Ok, what are we going to do?” But Kingsman just stares at him without responding and Kenji is *confused* until he looks down and sees Kingsman darkness is all over the ground and as he tries to move he can’t and Kingsman says
“This wasn’t even the challenge, but you failed. Let’s try this again” Kingsman snaps and the darkness on the floor creates a giant dome around them and Kingsman says
“Itsuki your training is done, finish meditating” Kingsman opens up a hole in the dome for Itsuki to go through and as Itsuki steps out Kenji tries to rush out as well but Kingsman closes it and Kenji crashes into the wall of the dome and the entire dome is completely pitch black until Kingsman opens up the ceiling letting in light and Kingsman says
“Again not the challenge but you failed again, now close your eyes. Well I guess it really wouldn’t matter when everything starts, but just close your eyes'' Kenji closes his eyes and Kingsman says
“Listen to the snaps and react. That is the only challenge, listen to nothing else. If you can not reach me after I snap you will be hit, Are you ready?” Kenji says
“This training won’t help me, I can sense where you are father” Kingsman *laughs* and says
“But you couldn’t sense the difference between illusions and a women?” Kenji is *shocked* and says
“What!?” Kingsman says
“The women in the bamboo you couldn’t beat, she used illusions to misdirect your senses” Kenji says
“How did you know that?” Kingsman says
“Me and Kaito have fought every warrior from the Fujiwara region, Shimadzu region, and the Tachibana region. Back when we were first starting to build the region back up, all of them knew we had lost many soldiers because of the war and they tried to eliminate us while we we’re at our weakest. But we were able to stop them, and while we we’re fighting them off I ran into ten incredibly powerful warriors and Tahara just so happened to be one of them. So I know all of Tahara's tricks, granted my darkness protects me from all forms of illusions and mind control while i’m fighting. But no one else can beat her illusions, but I'll make sure you have a chance to stop her before she can get too serious. So here’s a tip: never look into her eyes when she's transformed” Kenji says
“Why?” Kingsman says
“Because her ability allows her to transform into anyone you know. Whether you're scared of them or love them with all of your heart, if you look into her eyes while she's someone you love or fear your body and mind will shut down completely and you will do as she says. She tried to do it to me years ago, but she just disappeared. So I guess if you have no one you love or hate in your heart she simply doesn’t exist to you. We would have lost if it wasn’t for me breaking Kaito out of her illusion and him telling me where she was” Kenji says
“Father, you always tell me the hundreds of battles you’ve fought, but I want to know. How long have you been fighting?” Kingsman says
“My entire life. I was born at the start of a war, but we can talk about this later right now we start training” Kenji says
“But I can still sen–” But Kenji stops talking as the dome closes and everything goes pitch black and he can no longer sense Kingsman and Kingsman snaps but it sounds like it’s coming from all around him and then Kenji is hit on the head and he turns around *confused* and Kingsman snaps again and Kenji is still *confused* and he’s hit on the head again and Kingsman voice echo’s all around and says
“Focus boy!” Kenji says
“It sounds like it’s coming from everywhere, how am I supposed to focus?” Kingsman voice echo’s all around and says
“Listen for nothing else but the initial sound, the echos takes a fraction of a second to come behind the initial sound. Now focus!” Kingsman snaps again but it’s lower and is echoing less and Kenji looks to the corner where Kingsman is but before he can move Kingsman hits him in the head and Kenji turns back around and puts his head down and listens and then he hears the initial snap and then the echos and Kenji rushes Kingsman but Kenji hears a voice suddenly speak behind him and he turns around and Kingsman grabs his face and says
“Good job boy, your skills are starting to sharpen” Kingsman takes down the dome around them and he drops Kenji and says
“All right, I’ll let both of you get back to your training” Kenji says
“Why did we stop?” Kingsman says
“I’m tired, and it’s getting to dangerous for you to get this close to my darkness” Kenji says
“But I was just starting to get the hang of it” Kingsman says
“You should react faster next time” Kenji says
“But–” Kenji is interrupted by Kingsman turning around and taking one step then disappearing and Itsuki is *shocked* and says
“Sensei’s fast!” Kenji thinks
"Did I hear another voice in there?"
At the same time Dai is holding Riku in place on top of a tree and Riku is trying to shake free from Dai grip and says
“Dai, let go of me!” Dai says
“No, were here until those demons come out of the forest” Riku uses his wind to send them into the air and Dai *laughs* and says
“Do you think I’m afraid of heights?” But Riku suddenly flips them upside down and uses his wind to send them towards the ground extremely fast and Dai says
“Your bluffing!” But Riku uses his wind to twist them around slamming Dai into the ground extremely hard but Dai doesn’t let go and Riku sends them back into the air and launches them toward the ground again but this time Dai let’s go of Riku as they get close to the ground and Riku is able to stop himself from hitting the ground with his wind Riku stands up and Dai lands on the ground in front of Riku and Riku says
“Now i'm going home, you can wait alone” Dai says
“No your not, i’ll need a distraction if I get swarmed by too many of them” Riku says
“ I thought you were the strongest, that shouldn’t be a problem for you” Dai says
“Even the greatest warriors know there limits” Riku says
“So you’re not as dumb as Itsuki makes you seem. Good to know, but I'm still going home” Dai says
“Like I said the first time, you're not leaving. I need a distraction still” Riku *sighs* and puts wind around both of his hands and says
“Move or I’ll move you” Dai stomps both of his feet into the ground and then he activates his flaming gauntlets and he *smiles* and says
“Move me!” Riku creates a tornado right on top of Dai and Dai is struggling to keep himself anchored to the ground but Riku strengths the tornado and one of Dai’s feet are pulled loose and he can feel his other one starting to come free but he punches both of his fist into the ground and right after he does this his foot slips free and Dai is holding himself down on the ground as his body is being pulled in the air and Riku strengths the tornado again and the ground that Dai is holding onto is pulled into the air and he’s launched extremely high into the air and Dai throws the chunks of the ground he’s holding at Riku but Riku uses his wind to send it back at Dai and he puts his arms up to block it but Riku pulls him to the ground extremely fast making him crash into the ground in front of him and Riku says
“You should have moved Dai, I didn’t want to hurt you” Riku walks past Dai but as he steps past Dai he suddenly stops and he looks down and sees Dai holding onto his leg while still face down in the dirt and Dai turns his head to look up at him and says
“You didn’t move me” Dai sets Riku on fire but Riku uses his wind to push the fire off of him and it also sends Dai sliding across the ground and as Dai makes it to a knee he sees Riku’s force field of wind but he uses his fire to fully cover it in flames and he starts shooting fireballs at it simultaneously and the force field starts to crack all over until Riku starts pushing him back with his wind and Riku speeds up his force field and it starts to heal until Dai fires a big blast of fire from his mouth and Riku force field is cracking faster than ever until Riku’s force field explodes from the fire launching Riku back into a tree and before Riku could move Dai wraps his Kusarigama’s chain around Riku trapping him to the tree and Dai says
“Now this should get you to shut up” Dai stabs his Kusarigama’s blade into the tree right next to Riku’s neck and says
“You try and move you’ll die, now time for some peace and quiet” Riku says
“Damn it Dai, let me down!” Dai doesn’t listen to him and jumps into a tree and lays down and Riku tries to shake lose from the chains but he can’t even move slightly off of the tree and thinks
“Damn it, these chains are too tight. I can’t move off the tree at all, but maybe...” Riku uses his wind to starts pushing the chains up and he starts to move but then the chains are on fire and they burn Riku and he stops using his wind and then the fire goes off of the chains and Dai says
“Stop moving around so much, like I said you move you die!” Riku is just hanging on the tree not moving until he hears quick movement besides him and as he’s looking around he’s just seeing shadows moving through the trees until everything goes silent and he can hear footsteps coming from in the trees in front of him and then Goto emerges from the trees and walks up to Riku hanging on the tree and Riku says
“Who the hell are you!?” Goto says
“Don’t worry about that Riku” Riku is *shocked* and says
“What!? Da–” But Riku is stopped from screaming by Goto putting his two fingers on Riku’s throat and he leans in and says
“I wouldn’t do that Riku…Tatsuno, I’d advise you keep our meeting to yourself” Riku is *terrified* hearing his full name and starts shaking with *fear* and doesn’t respond and Goto says
“Good!” Goto turns around and walks back into the forest and Riku is still shaking and he doesn’t even realize when Kingsman comes up next to him and is talking to him and he only notices Kingsman when he grabs his head and then Riku looks at him and Kingsman says
“Riku you good? You look terrified” But Riku doesn’t respond and he’s just staring at Kingsman and Kingsman grabs the Kusarigama’s blade and pulls it out of the tree freeing Riku but as he drops to the ground he still is shaking and not speaking and then the chains again is set on fire and Dai from the trees, says
“I told you stop moving so much” Kingsman looks up and then jumps into the trees and sees Dai sleeping and as Dai is sleeping he hears the chains rattle again and he says
“Riku, can you just sto–” As Dai opens his eyes he thinks he’s falling and he tries to put his hands up but he realizes he can’t move them and he sees he’s chained to the bottom of the branch he was just sleeping on and Dai says
“What the hell is going on?” Kingsman from on top of the branch, says
“You have three seconds to tell me what you did to Riku before I cut this branch” Dai says
“Sensei!? What are you doing here?” Kingsman says
“One” Dai says
“I didn’t do anything” Kingsman says
“Two” Dai says
“Sensei, i’m telling the truth I didn’t do anything to him” Kingsman says
“Thre–” Dai says
“Wait! Ok fine I dragged Riku out here for some backup just in case all of them were to rush me at once. But he wanted to go home so I tied him to a tree and I was keeping him there until night time” Kingsman says
“Number one, the Demons that lurk in the forest are extremely intelligent and adaptive creatures and they had to fight me. So you won’t even be able to handle one of them because it doesn’t matter how strong your fire is if you can’t hit them with it. Number two, that doesn’t explain why Riku is shaking with fear and he won’t speak” Dai is *shocked* and says
“What!? I-I didn’t do that, he was still screaming even after I tied him to the tree. Sensei you have to believe me” Kingsman says
“Then if it wasn’t you then something in the forest must have gotten to him while you were sleeping” Kingsman pulls the Kusarigama freeing Dai from his chains and making him fall to the ground but he lands on his feet and Kingsman jumps down back next to Riku and crouches down next to him and says
“Riku, look at me” But Riku is still looking at the ground shaking and Dai says
“What happened to you? I only tied you to a tree…I'm sorry” Kingsman picks up Riku and walks back towards the house and Dai is just standing there looking at Kingsman carrying Riku away and he thinks
“Sensei…Riku, I'm sorry” Kingsman makes it back to the house but as Kingsman goes into the house holding Riku, Akita is in the kitchen cooking and she turns around and sees Riku shaking and says
“Oh my! Is he ok?” Kingsman says
“I don’t know, when I found him he was like this” Kingsman carries Riku into the living room and sits him on the couch and Akita follows Kingsman into the living room and Kingsman says
“He’ll look at me, but he won’t respond” Akita walks up to Riku and says
“Riku, can you hear me? Please talk to me”
At the same time Dai comes into the back door and as he’s about to go upstairs he looks into the living room and sees Kingsman and Akita trying to help Riku and Dai gets *worried* and rushes upstairs and Kingsman says
“If he won’t respond to us verbally, then i’ll make him respond physically” Kingsman pulls his sword out of his hand and raises it in the air and as he’s about to swing his blade but Akita jumps in front of Kingsman and says
“Stop! Please don’t do this” Riku is *shocked* hearing that and he look up in the direction of Akita and Kingsman but in his eyes he sees a silhouette of a man and a woman in a burning building and the women is trying to stop the man but the man swings his blade at her and Riku jumps up uses his wind to punch Kingsman blasting him through the wall and Riku screams
“GET AWAY!” But as he looks up he sees Akita and she says
“Riku, you're all right!” Akita hugs Riku and Riku says
“I-I didn’t mean to” Akita says
“It’s alright Riku” Riku walks over to the hole in the wall and through all the dirt that got kicked up he can see Kingsman’s silhouette slowly standing up and Riku says
“Sensei I’m sorry I didn’t–” But him and Akita are both *stunned* as the dirt clears and they can see Kingsman standing up but his sword is in his heart and Kingsman spits up blood and pulls the sword out but he *smiles* and says
“Nice punch...Riku” Kingsman falls to the ground and Akita screams
“KINGSMAN!” She runs over to him and grabs him and Riku is *stunned* looking at Akita holding Kingsman while *crying* and Dai with Hana on his back comes downstairs and walks up next to Riku and sees Akita *crying* holding Kingsman and Dai is *shocked* and screams
“SENSEI!” He rushes over to them and Hana says
“Daddy? Are you ok?”
At the same time Kenji and Itsuki come through the back door and they hear Akita *crying* and they both run up next to Riku and they both notice Kingsman on the ground bleeding and Kenji is *shocked* and says
“Father!” Itsuki *shocked* and says
“Sensei!” They both run over to him and Riku is staring at all of them and he looks at his hands and starts shaking again and whispers
“I’m–I’m sorry!” Riku runs out of the back door and into the forest and he’s just running through the forest until he collapses on the floor and he sits down and puts his back against a tree and he starts *crying* and says
“I always hurt the most important people in my life. I always do this!” But suddenly Riku starts to hear whispers coming from all around him and he can’t understand what there saying until they all go silent and he hears Goto’s voice saying
“This is the second time you’ve hurt the closet people in your life. First your own mother, the only person who wanted you to live a peaceful life, and now your Sensei. The man who saved you from the carnage you caused and this is how you repay him and his family's kindness, killing the most important person in their lives. You know you can’t go back, they all hate you!” Riku stands up and continues walking into the darkness of the forest
