RECAP:
Luna sighs quietly and walks from the kitchen, carrying a tray. On the tray was the tea and some brownies. She quietly puts the tray down before kneeling before Kiba and Kuro. She then bows low to the ground. "I would like to personally welcome you here, Kiba-san. I trust you will be comfortable here?" She quietly asked, "And I assume you know of Kuro's condition?" A silent nod was her only answer from Kiba. "Don't be angry with her. I can see you might be frustrated but do not be angry with her." Luna stated, being sensitive to the auras in the atmosphere of her living room, "I trust you-" She gasped looking at their tea, her hair standing on end. "Oh bother." She stated, standing up, dropping her mug, the tea staining the carpet.
"Shit." There was a loud knock on her door and she went up to answer it, only to see two of the yakuza members blocking her path. She gasped as she was picked up by her throat and slammed against the wall.
"Pay up bitch or we will use your body to pay your debt." One sneered, looking over Luna's body with a look of lust in his eyes, "You and your bitch of a roommate."
Kiba growled at what he had just heard. He got up and started making his way to the door, grabbing the only thing within reach, an ancient great sword that had been passed down in Luna's family for the past two walks outside, unnoticed by the Yakuza goons and he could tell Luna was frightened for her life but there was also a burning hatred in her eyes and he felt stronger from seeing it. He then appears to the side of the one holding Luna up by the neck, then he proceeds to use the Sânge Mis(Blood Mist) Luna's family heirloom, The sword of her ancient ancestors before they came to then slices the arm of the one that had Luna then gets stabbed in the chest by the other.
Before Luna could reply, blood splattered her face and she looked to see one yakuza thug unconcious from blood loss, his arm missing and the other had his sword run through...KIBA!? And the look in Kiba's eyes sent a shiver down her spine. All hell was about to break loose.
~Presently~
Luna blinked,crumpling to the ground, gaining the breath she lost when one of those goons had began to strangle her. She then looked up to see Kiba with the sword through his chest and she wondered how he was still standing and not in a bloody heap on the floor. To say she was confused would be an understatement, she was very, very confused. She then stood up, rubbing the bruise on her neck.
"Hahahaha, you think you challenge me little girl?" The man growled, "You may know how to wield a blade, but you are weak because you were born a woman. This bastard has sealed your fates." Luna looked at him defiantly, her face set in a war like snarl. The man went to pull the sword out of Kiba's chest but was surprised when Kiba grabs his left wrist, stopping him. The man looked up and gulped, a shiver of fear running through his system. The fear intensified as Kiba started pulling the blade in further, only stopping when the hilt of the sword was at his chest. "W-what t-the h-hell!? What the f-fuck a-are y-you!?" the man shouted,struggling to pull the sword free,but in the end, he wound letting go of the sword and falling onto his back.
"You think you can come here and threaten helpless women?" Kiba asked, a cold smirk forming on his lips, causing the hair on the back of
Luna and Kuro's neck to stand on end, "You are lower than the lowest scum bag that dare to call themselves human beings. You are not worth my time to fight human. Consider this your first and only warning, you are to leave this place and never come back and threaten these women, and while you are at it, you can tell your boss that. And also tell him Hell is coming and I will be leading it." The yakuza thug got up and began to run away, screaming like a banshee as he did so, only to be cut down by a group of demons.
During the panic of the citizens trying to escape, no one noticed an amored vehicle pull up and a figure sitting in the driver's seat, their bluish black bangs hiding his two toned eyes. He began shaking but held himself back from interfering.
Luna watched as Kiba slowly approached the low level demons, that eerie yet playful smile on his face. 'He looks so innocent, but, I sense a lust for battle and blood in him...' She thought, pieces starting to come together bit by bit. She then looked at Kuro, her brow furrowing before turning her gaze towards where Kiba currently stood at the trunk of his car.
Kiba would run to the demons, watching them twitch and wobble as they walked. " You idiots can wait right there " Kiba said as he throws the sword, it impaling a green headed monster in the head. Kiba would walks to his car and rip the trunk out of place. He throws it over his shoulder, it slicing one of the monsters in half. Kiba used his left hand to pull out a katana that was in it's black sheath. The handle was wrapped with a white silk cloth wrapping, the guard being circular and golden. The end of the handle was golden with a dragon incurved.
" I try not to use my sword, but you assholes killed that messenger. Now we might have to leave in case more assholes show up. First things first... " Kiba would say as he used his right hand to grab the handle of his katana, while watching the other demons leap ten feet in the air.
" You all must die " Kiba said, swiftly drawing out his sword and swings it. He turned the door way of Luna's home, seeing her and Kuro standing there. He would slowly slide the sword back into it's sheath as he walked to them.
" Kiba what are yo- " Kuro became silent as she watched the demons burst, black blood splattering onto the ground.
" How the hell did you do that? You didn't even hit them " Luna added, her eyes wide with shock. Kiba used his right hand to push his bangs back then looked at them.
" We have bigger things to think about " Kiba would say.
" Indeed you do demon " A voice would say. They all looked to the sky, seeing a golden knight that had angel wings and a halo above it's golden horns. In it's right hand it held a long sword, it having a angle wing on each side as the guard. " Your end is coming son of Sparda along with the rest of this world. With the Hell Gate risen, this world will know terror far beyond their nightmares. Oh but how can anyone forget you? I have a very special surprise for you " The knight would say.
Luna gasped as she saw Kiba tense up and growl. She then looked up at the knight and her eyes narrowed. 'That's no Angel, but a Demon!' She thought, clenching her hands into useless fists at her side, her entire body beginning to shake. She wasn't a religious person but she did believe in Angels and Demons, that Demons were descended from the angels that rebelled in heaven and were cast out long before the human race was brought into being, that they were more powerful than a human.
" Mundos you coward, how bout you stop hiding behind that tin can " Kiba would demand.
The demon known as Mundos would laugh, sending a shiver of fear down Luna's spine." You have no power over me boy. I will enter your world when I please. NOW DIE! " The knight would excalim as it dived for Kiba. Kiba went to draw is sword, but, the knight was faster, stabbing Kiba's right shoulder. Kiba's body slammed to the wall of Luna's house, the blade pushing it's way through Kiba and the wall. Kiba yelled in pain as he tried to pull the blade out, his flesh burning to the touch of the blade.
" Before I had this body come for you, I had every inch of it blessed with holy water. This feeble body serves it's purpose despite it's limits. I can only cause you great pain, but enough so that you can't draw your sword " The knight would say. Kuro'd had enough and decided to act on behalf of her Kiba.
" GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM HIM! " Kuro would yell as fire formed in her left hand. The fire would grow larger, taking the form of a scythe that was nearly three time her size. The knight would look over, only for Kuro to slice it's entire body in half from the head down. Kiba grabbed the wrist of the knight, using it to pull the sword out of his shoulder. Kuro ran over to him, catching him as he fell to his knees.
" I got you Master Kiba " Kuro would say as she help him slowly sit. Luna stood in shock, her world of reality shattered, and it was just too much for her delicate sensibilities.
" They're demons " Luna though before fainting.
The figure, upon seeing Luna faint, jumps out of the vehicle and runs up to where Luna was. "LUNA!" He shouted, seeing Kiba putting her in the backseat of the car as Kuro got their things into the trunk. He arrived his green and teal eyes hard and threatening. "Where do you think you're taking her!?" He snarled.
"Daray, it's not safe here!" Kuro shouted from the porch.
"OH? Like you can keep her safe?!" The male, Daray asked, snarling, before charging at them, only to get hit in the stomach by Kiba with the sheath of his sword.
Kiba then began to unsheath his sword, ready to deliver a final blow. "WAIT! Master Kiba, he's a close friend to Luna, her best friend in fact. He just over reacted. We should take him with us. Luna will feel better with him around." Kuro stated, wrapping her arms around Kiba. Kiba sighed in defeat before putting Daray in the backseat with Luna, before he and Kuro got in. He started the car and drove off, wanting to be far away from the city.
Luna would wake up in the back seat of Kiba's mustang. Beside her was a man that was asleep. Her eyes widen seeing that it was her best friend, Daray. His blackish blue bangs covered his eyes as his body was motionless. " Don't worry, he's not dead. He showed up as we were getting you in the car. I told Kiba that he's your best friend so Kiba knocked him out and got him in also " Luna would hear Kuro say. Luna looked ahead, seeing Kuro in the passenger seat as Kiba drove. Kiba would drive into the woods, remaining silent as he drove. He thought of what Mundos had said. How he revealed who his father was.
" Kuro did you pack my belongings? " Luna would ask as she looked out the window. She would stare at the passing cherry blossom tree and the sky darkening with storm clouds. Her state of mind was troubled and she couldn't develop a single coherent thought, so her mind was in a fog. She came to attention when Kuro waved her hand in front of her face. "You were saying?" She quietly asked.
" Yes Luna, made sure to pack your valuables and some clothes " Kuro would say as Kiba pulled over to a small inn cabin. She was concerned for her roommate. She wasn't sure how she was going to handle the fact that Kiba was a demon or the fact the she had demon blood running through her veins, it was obvious that the shock had upset her greatly if the way Luna fainted at the house had been any indication.
" Why are we here? " Luna asked, becoming even more confused than she already was. This time it was Kiba who answered.
" I need silence so that I may train. I refuse to let that arrogant bastard get the best of me. To end this world when I have a family on the way. I'll wipe out his army " Kiba would say as he climbed out the car.
" I'll go see if anyone is here or if the keys are still around " Kuro said as she climbed out of the car as well. She would walk to the main bulding of the inn as Kiba walked to the doorless trunk of his car.
" Hey Luna I could use some help back here " Kiba would say. Luna quickly climbed out and walked over, seeing bags of clothes, Kiba's sword, her family sword and two of her silver brief cases. She would quickly pull her brief cases out. She sets the smaller one on the ground as she quickly sat on the warm grass. She opened the larger one as fast as she could, seeing her gold and brown semi-automatic sniper rifle that had no scope to it. Inside was also a Full Metal Jacket and a Fast Magazine Clip below the sniper. She then opened her smaller silver brief case, seeing her UZI, a Full Metal Jacket, a Magazine that was two attached to each other, and a laser sight attachment. She sagged in relief when she saw Kuro'd remembered to pack them. She stroked, the cool metal of her sniper rifle, a smile forming on her face." So you have guns? " Kiba would stated, seeing her sigh and sag with relief, startling her out of her inner world.
" Had to learn at a young age to use guns a- " Luna would go silent and close her brief cases. She picked them up as she stood up and went to find Kuro. "You're rooming with Kuro. I will room with Daray, He's a hot head, but he means well and I can handle him." She stated, looking over her shoulder. She then walked up to Kuro, her entire posture tensed, thunder rumbling in the distance.
Kiba sighed as Luna got her stuff into the room she was sharing with Daray then helps Kuro and himself get their stuff into the respective rooms, before heaving Daray up and taking him into Luna's room, plopping him onto the empty bed, walking out the door just as rain started to fall. She sighed softly, knowing Daray was going to like the sleeping arrangements just as much as she knew Kiba was, but she had her reasons.
As it started to rain, Daray would wake up. He would see he was in a room he never seen. He slowly sat up, seeing his Luna's things laying on a bed at the other side of the room. He then walks out to the hall ay to see Kiba. " YOU! " Daray yells out as he bolts for Kiba. Kiba sighed as he vanished before Daray's eyes. Daray then felt the hair on the back of his neck stand as Kiba stood back to back with.
" Don't make me reget taking you with us worm. I don't care who you are, but you're a close friend of Luna. So we might as well get along human " Kiba would coldly say. He moved his sword away from Daray's neck and slowly waked to the room door. He uses his right hand to grab the cool door knob. slowly twisting it clock wise and pulled it open.
Daray would watch with hate and anger boiling inside of him for what Kiba had done. He reimagined of how he went to aid Luna, but Kiba used his sword's sheath to strike his stomach, knocking him out. Daray ran after Kiba, stopping as he saw Luna holding her family sword and Kuro holding a scythe that was far larger then her. " Am I dead? Is this just some kind of trick of the mind or a dream that I feel pain? " Daray would ask as he felt his body freeze in place. Luna shook her head, her brow furrowed, tears of frustration in her eyes, a sure sign she was stressed and having trouble dealing with this reality as well.
" I wish it was a dream Daray, but this is real " He would hear Luna say.
Daray would look up to the sky as it begun to rain on them, the water cool on his body. Kiba closed his eyes as he, Kuro, and Luna circled around each other. " For now I won't use Yamato. Kuro bares my child and I can't risk her or my child's life. As for you Luna, you're a human, so you're the most likely to die " Kiba said as he listened to his surrounding. He'd become still, Luna and Kuro doing the same. They'd carefully watch him, their grips tight on their weapons. They'd look at each other, giving silent nods.
Daray watched at the two would charge for Kiba, Kuro running to his right and Luna went for his left side. He grunts as watching Kiba not moving a budge, his breathing being slow. " That arrogant bastard. I'd like to give him a piece of my mind. I wanna repay him for knocking me out and putting the sword to my neck..." Darry thought as he started to bolt to Kiba. He stopped at the sight of Kiba using the sheath of his sword, Yamato, to block Kuro's attack as he used his right hand to hold the blade of Luna's sword.
" Let's even the odds a bit " Daray would say as he started to run to everyone. He was about to strike but felt the air become hot. Kiba slowly looked over his shoulder, seeing a male figure wearing a black and yellow ninja suite. The only feature of his face that was visible was his pure white eyes.
" My Master wants you dead Son of Sparda. Now fight " The male would say, his voice deep in tone, sending a shiver down Luna and Daray's spines.
" I'm guessing you're the surprise Mundos sent after me. Very well, I'll fight you." Kiba said as Luna and Kuro stood beside him. The ninja would point over to them, rag doll demons leaping out of the trees.
" This fight will be done one on one with no intrusions " The ninja would say as he reached over his shoulder. He drew out two ninja blades, the blades being eight inches long.
" You two can handle these freaks, the ninja is mine. Daray..stay out the way " Kiba said as he slowly walked toward the ninja. Daray clutched his hands into fists, angry how Kiba though of him less then useful. Daray run past Kuro and Luna, grabbing the nearest demon by the face. He lifted the demon off of it's feet, slamming it's head to the ground. Daray angrily grabbed the large blade that was attached to the demons left arm, ripping it out of place.
" Well you've done it Kiba, you pissed Daray off ." Luna would say with a sigh. She would then unsheath the sword, it's blade gleaming despite the rain, "And Daray doesn't like being called useless, and neither do I." Luna stated before taking off and jumping into the air, flipping, slicing one demon in half, "Flow Sange Mis."
Daray heard Luna utter the sword's name and his ring began to grow warm against his chest. He then looked at the ring Luna wore on her right ring finger and he saw her eyes flash to a brilliant blue for a moment and he knew she was dead serious. He gulped, knowing that this was a warning of what was about to come.
"Warrior" by Disturbed
I am now an instrument of violence
I am a vessel of invincibility
I cannot leave this undecided
Stepping down to battle another day
Remember me for all time this
Determination is a vital part of me
Surrender now or be counted
With the endless masses that I will defeat
Kuro instantly sensed the change in her normally easy going roommate, that the calm demeanor she noramlly had was gone, there was no trace of her. She felt her heart squeezed for she liked that side of Luna. What stood before her now was what appeared to be an ancient warrior that had come back to life at the threat of danger.
[Pre-Chorus:]
Come on bring it, don't sing it
Better believe it
Broken down, till your hope has died
Beat down till the victory is mine
Stand up and show me some pride
And now, are you ready?
Luna stood there, staring down the enemies, her face an unreadable mask, but that was to the untrained eye of anyone who didn't know her, but to those who did, this was a bad sign, a really bad sign. She then held her sword in front of her, the blade gleaming a blood red color.
Daray gulped, knowing that it was only a matter of time before she exploded, her blood lust would then take control of her and she would fight and kill anyone near her wether they were friend or foe, it made no difference to her. He felt the scar on his back begin to hurt. He knew first hand what her bloodlust was like, he'd experienced it personally.
[Chorus:]
I'm one with the warrior inside
My dominance can't be denied
Your entire world will turn
Into a battlefield tonight
As I look upon you through
The warrior's eyes now
I can see the fear that will
Ensure my victory this time
Kuro was about to reach out to her normally gentle friend but she felt Daray grab her wrist, stopping her. She looked at him, about to scold him, that was, until she saw the look in his eyes. Daray struck her as the type who wasn't afraid of anything, but the look in his eyes was a primal fear and a slight admiration, but it was fear none the less.
"It would be best that you don't make yourself a target. When she gets like this, she doesn't differentiate between friend or foe, she will fight and kill. It's bred into her and honed through training." Daray stated, causing Kuro's eyes widen.
"But...she's so gentle..." Kuro stated.
"Normally, yes, she is, but when she is in a blood lust state, your best bet is to not interfere and leave her alone until she calms down. I know this first hand, I have the scar to prove it. She isn't a push over, despite what people may think. So your best bet would be to stay out of it. There are plenty of minions for us to fight but the ones Luna are facing, don't interfere." Daray replied, his tone cold but there was an eerie gentleness to it, almost as if he was worried about Luna. Kuro made a mental note to ask him or Luna about it later.
I can't be told to compromise this
They'll never doubt the body lying at my feet
A most formidable reminder
They will speak my name for eternity
I have no need of any guidance
I am a weapon powerful beyond belief
Seen through the warrior's eyes
I never need to question how to defeat you
Luna took a deep breath before crouching down, her eyes that brilliant shade of blue, her killer instincts starting to kick in. She side stepped as one of the demons charged at her. She kept dodging, until she felt the blade nick her cheek. She then charges forward, running one through before lifting it up, then slamming it to the ground, effectively slicing it from the abdomen up, black blood staining her blade. She lifted her sword just in time to block another attack, the look in her eyes, meant death for anyone who dared to attack her.
Come on bring it, don't sing it
Better believe it
Broken down, till your hope has died
Beat down till the victory is mine
Stand up and show me some pride
And now, are you ready?
Kiba looked towards where Luna, Kuro and Daray were fighting and he was surprised to see Kuro and Daray weren't fighting. He was irritated with that and then he felt the killer intent that suddenly tainted the air. He looked for the source, only for his eyes to rest on Luna, but something was different about her. He then looked at his opponent, noticing the white eyes were focused. He charged,but was surprised when his opponent easily parried his attack.
I'm one with the warrior inside
My dominance can't be denied
Your entire world will turn
Into a battlefield tonight
As I look upon you through
The warrior's eyes now
I can see the fear that will
Ensure my victory this time
Kuro watched as Luna fought. She had to admit Luna was beautiful, but she was also frightening. She was shaken down to her core at this side of Luna and she knew that Daray was right, judging by how brutally Luna was butchering her opponents. She then saw a demon sneak up behind Luna. "LUNA! LOOK OUT!" She and Daray scream at the same time.
Luna turned around just in time to impale the demon through the heart, but not in time to avoid a blow. The demon had succeeded in stabbing her, rooting her to the spot. She then felt more blades begin to cut into her flesh and an eerie scream escaped as blood flowed freely from her body.
I can't be told to compromise this
They'll never doubt the body lying at my feet
A most formidable reminder
They will speak my name for eternity
I have no need of any guidance
I am a weapon powerful beyond belief
Seen through the warrior's eyes
I never need to question how to defeat you
Kuro'd seen enough. She summoned her scythe and saw a knife in Daray's left hand and a black flame, which was due to a mutation in his genes, though they didn't know it at that moment, had formed in his right hand. She looked at him, only to see him nod, and together, they charged the demons that had ganged up on Luna, easily taking them out. She saw Daray kneel down and apply pressure to the wound before removing the massive blade. "H-hold o-on." She heard him choke out.
"D-daray..." Luna choked, coughing up more blood, her hand releasing her sword before reaching up and touching his face, leaving a single bloody hand print on his face, "Protect Kuro."
"I will protect you too. You will live." Daray hissed, tears forming in his eyes.
"This is the first time I've seen you cry in years. I never told you how much I admired your strength." Luna stated, coughing, groaning in pain,
"Take Sange Mis and fight. I will hold on as long as I can." She closed her eyes.
You can't hide now
I am the warrior
So decide now
How they'll remember you
Do not hide now
Act like a warrior
Show your pride now
Solidify your place in time
Daray picked up Luna's sword and whirled around, just in time to lop off a demon's head, his face set in a snarl as a fierce war cry escaped from his lips. "JUST DIE!" He exclaimed, standing up and getting back to back with Kuro and the two began fighting again in earnest, both desperate to protect their fallen friend.
I'm one with the warrior inside
My dominance can't be denied
Your entire world will turn
Into a battlefield tonight
As I look upon you through
The warrior's eyes now
I can see the fear that will
Ensure my victory this time
I can't be told to compromise this
They'll never doubt the body lying at my feet
A most formidable reminder
They will speak my name for eternity
I have no need of any guidance
I am a weapon powerful beyond belief
Seen through the warrior's eyes
I never need to question how to defeat you
Kuro grunted as they took on the last few minions, her body covered in blood and sweat. She looked and saw Daray kneeling at Luna's head, her head in his lap, and that he was touching her face ever so gently. She turned and looked to her prince. "KIBA! LUNA'S HURT! BAD!" She shouted, catching his attention as well as that of the assassin.
Kiba, upon hearing what Kuro had said, made to go to Luna but was stopped by the white eyed assassin. "Your fight is with me." He stated. He was surprised when he pushed the assassin back. "If you want to save her, then fight me." The assassin stated before charging again, only to have Kiba parry his attack.
I'm one with the warrior inside
The evidence can't be denied
The entire world will stare
Into this battlefield tonight
As I stand before you
With a warrior's heart now
I can feel the strength that will
Ensure my victory this time
Daray watched as Kiba and the assassin began to fight, then he looked down to Luna's face. He didn't like to see her in pain, it made him feel useless and helpless, two of the feelings he hated most. He watched as Kuro walked up and kneel by Luna.
"She's hurt bad. Her state is critical." Kuro stated.
"Tell me something I don't already know." Daray hissed in agitation.
