Wrath Ambition of Freedom!
We see a fancy looking hallway as a young man is walking through the path to the door as he was called by a 'friend' to come over and talk about something important, hopefully it's not a waste like last time he visited this man.
The boy appeared to be about 15-16 years ago, shoulder-length dark brown hair with a part of it wrapped in bun with maroon color tips, he has traditional markings and prints mottled around his body. His clothing and attire consist of a style commonly attributable to the deities of Japanese mythology, complete with dual white scarves trailing behind his shoulders (the Japanese wind god, Fujin, is also known to wear a long white mantlecloth around his shoulders). He is also wearing a golden mask.
"Alright, let see what he wants this time and I swear if it's another drinking contest I'll slice him in half." The boy with a deep tone in his voice said to himself, letting out a sigh knowing that this man would probably goof around a bit before getting to the serious business.
The boy reaches the door and rang the doorbell once, waited for a few seconds until it open showing a young girl revealed herself to the visitor.
She has long blonde hair, green eyes, and well-endowed figure. She is wearing a maid uniform consist of a dark-blue dress with a white apron on top and a dark-blue ribbon tied behind her head. Breasts sizes: E-cup.
"Greetings Yasha, Sir Edward has been expecting you." The maid greeted allowing him to enter the room.
"Good to see you as well, Angela." Yasha entered the room seeing a man sitting on a couch.
The man is a tall-figured young man with short blonde hair and dark green eyes. He also has two earrings on both ears and always wears a purple suit.
"Hey, there Blue Ninja Yasha, it's good to see you!" The man greeted like a happy child as he is holding a game mobile in his hand.
"Sir Edward Lampard, still being childish I see." Yasha mocked walking towards him.
"Hey now, no need to be all formal, we're fellow members of the Head Seven, but we're friends, so just sit down and relax while I finish this level." Edward patted the spot on the couch to him.
"You'll have to forgive him, he's been playing that game since this morning and had to cancelled the plan of going out for breakfast." Angela explained.
"I take it you weren't very happy about that?" Yasha asked.
"Of course, I was looking forward to having those pancakes, but this stupid pain-in-the-butt got all lazy because of a game for children." Angela glared at her master.
"Hey now, is that anyway to treat your big brother like that?" Edward asked, then he realized he got distracted that the final boss of the game beat him making it game over.
"Aw man, I lost again." Edward sighed in shame as he drops the game on the floor.
"Is there any reason why you called me all the way out here when I was on a mission?" Yasha asked feeling annoy right now.
"Yes, yes, sorry about that old buddy." Edward apologized quickly changing his mood and turns on the TV.
"Just yesterday when I was enjoying a nice cartoon show about a pig with spider powers, it's really funny, anyway I got a mysterious text from an unknown caller with a video of the event that happened at a mall in a city where Akane Academy is." Edward explained playing the screen.
"Akane Academy, that's where my sister is starting as a first year." Yasha said.
"Yes, you mentioned your twin sister and older brother are there. Man, it sure takes me back to the time that you were the beyond a prodigy passing classes and awakening at such an early age." Edward recalled, thinking of how he first met Yasha that he graduated at the age of ten.
"I just worked hard like everyone to become strong." Yasha stated.
"Yeah, and that you got promoted to becoming S-Rank shortly after graduation." Edward added as he plays the video showing the mall was being destroyed by a Metaphysicals.
"Hmm, that's a new one." Yasha commented.
"Yes, a multi-headed type each ugly like the rest though I think this one is uglier." Edward pointed out the larger snake head that's black and red.
"(A red and black color Metaphysicals, I feel like I seen those colors before.)" Yasha thought, thinking on the memories of his past life.
Yasha's eyes then widen of shock when he saw two girls slowly being turned into stone, one of the girls he's familiar is mostly stone with only her head remain as she lays on the ground unconscious.
"Shizuno!" Yasha gasped getting up from his sit.
"Yeah, I was a little shocked that she and that girl with the pink hair tried to fend off that monster even though they are only first-years. Not to worry, they survived the ordeal thanks to those two." Edward said playing the video again.
The next scene shows Asura and Moroha fighting off against the giant snake monster, each doing a special attack destroying the giant snake monster together, though Yasha was more focus on Asura getting a strange feeling that he meant this boy before probably in his past-life and the video paused.
"Did you see that? Those two first-year students just took down a dangerous Metaphysicals that would take a few S-Rank Strikers to defeat, I think we just found ourselves two Jack in the box!" Edward excited gripping the remote tightly.
Yasha didn't say anything as he continues staring at the silver-haired boy with six golden arms, the more he looks at this first-year, the more intense feeling he gets then suddenly felt a flashback appearing in his head of old memories from his past-life is suffering.
(Flashback)
Two men standing on the metal training field, one looks like Yasha but older wearing a martial arts gi looking like he's ready to charge, the other is the boy from the video also older-looking tightening his fist.
"Yasha!" The past man shouted jumping towards the past-Yasha.
"Asura!" The Past-Yasha shouted back as he charges to meet him head on.
Soon, they came to the middle and their fists collided that creates shockwaves.
Then everything went blank.
(Flashback End)
"Asura." Yasha said.
"Oh, you curious about this one?" Edward asked pointing at Asura on the paused screen.
"You could say that." Yasha answered.
"Angela, did you find out anything about those two boys like I asked?" Edward asked to his maid/younger sister.
"Yes, one boy is named Moroha Haimura and the other is Asura Gekido. Both very strong Strikes though Moroha appears to be the ancient dragon." Angela informed handing them the files of the boys.
"Oh, so one is the Ancient Dragon while the other is just insanely powerful like one. We really hit the jackpot!" Edward smirked looking at Moroha's file.
Yasha looked at Asura's file for a few moments and place it down on the table.
"I'm heading out." Yasha said getting up and walking away.
"Going to meet them I see, I was thinking of heading out myself." Edward said.
"Perhaps, though I've been meaning to go visit my family soon, guess now's a good as time as any." Yasha said reaching the boy.
"Just because with that brother of yours, you warned about him being obsessed with success in the family's name." Edward said.
"…I know." Yasha said before leaving the room.
"I do feel pity for him." Angela said with a sad expression.
"Yeah, it's a good thing we're not like that. Even though you are adopted, I'm glad you're my sister." Edward smiled at Angela.
"Thank you, big brother." Angela smiled back.
(Akane Academy, Principal Office)
"So, Asura, do you know why you're here?" Mari asked sitting at her desk with Asura in front of him.
"Something about my anger." Asura guessed.
"Yes, it's only been two weeks since you enrolled here and you already gotten yourself a bad reputation, you beating up Wyzen I let it side since it was the first day. But you certainly made yourself known for nearly destroying everything." Mari explained.
"That's a little exaggerating." Asura protested.
"Really, like the time you punch Gen through three stone walls?" Mari raised an eyebrow.
"He was bothering those two girls and one of his 'friends' was trying to grope their butts." Asura explained.
"The time you threw a car into a building with the driver inside?"
"He nearly drove over that little kid and didn't bothered looking!" Asura said.
"Destroyed two vending machines and threw them out the window."
"They refused to give me my snacks!" Asura said.
"And just yesterday, caused a food fight in the cafeteria and nearly destroyed the whole place." Mari glared.
"The guy wouldn't stop flinging food at me and he asked for it." Asura defended himself.
"Asura, you're an incredible boy with powers that could help the whole world but you're letting your anger get the best of you at the littlest things. You need better control." Mari lectured.
Asura let out a sigh, knew that she is right.
"I know, I was always told by the people at the town where I used to live. Telling me that I shouldn't let this anger turn me into a monster… but the thing is I can't ignore it." Asura said looking at his hands.
He suddenly sees an image of his past-life's hands covered in blood and a dead old man laying in front of him.
"I always feel angry for some reason, but it's not to any person or something, I'm just angry because I feel like there's something bad out there in the world and I have to destroy it with my own hands." Asura described of how he feels about his wrath.
"It almost like it's telling me to be prepared for the worst, and I don't even know what that is. How am I suppose to save the world?" Asura asked worry.
Mari knew what Asura was talking about, every Strikers know that feeling whenever they're about to head into battle against Metaphysicals and felt shaken after surviving the battle and coming home, they all have burden with a heavy responsibility the moment they awaken their Prama and seeing their past-lives taking away their normal life. Everyone felt that way, Mari herself too, it was scary at first but when they all realizes that having these powers meaning they can be something great to help the whole world not alone, but with friends being by your side.
"I know things are hard, but I promise they'll be much clearer to you in time and you don't always have to think it like saving the whole word, just think about saving one person at a time." Mari advised as she walks up to Asura and place a hand on his shoulder.
"We're here so we can learn from each other to protect lives, channel our power to destroy the enemies we were destined to fight against." Mari said.
"So, I should channel my anger only in fights?" Asura asked.
"Something like that, and don't be afraid to hold back otherwise you won't grow stronger if you don't use your full strength." Mari nodded.
Then Mari got an idea.
"Come on." Mari said heading to the door.
"Where are we going?" Asura asked curious.
"A walk in the park." Mari answered. And just in time, the bell rang as the end of the day.
(Park)
Asura and Mari are seen walking together at a park with people are together as friends and families doing some fun outdoor stuff like having a picnic or playing a friendly game of tag running on the grass.
"Relaxing, isn't it?" Mari asked Asura.
"Yeah, seeing everyone just enjoying their days like nothing matters." Asura pointed out.
"That's because of us, with the Strikers around people can enjoy the peaceful times we helped make and it's our job to make sure that last for everyone to live in." Mari explained seeing two kids flying kites.
"What about us, don't we get any time off?" Asura asked.
"Of course, we do, we get always be fighting monsters all the time though when you get to S-Rank. That won't matter." Mari mentioned.
"S-Rank?"
"Once you reach that Rank, you'll never have any freedom again. The Strikers who are S-Rank will be working none stop forcing to battle against Metaphysicals they no chance of defeating, you can't do any normal stuff like just going out for a walk with permission." Mari explained.
"That's insane! They're being treated like slaves and some are still kids!" Asura angered. Who in Hell made that stupid rule in the first place.
"I know how you feel, I knew a few people who became S-Rank and I never saw them again." Mari said looking down at the grassy ground sad.
"This is something the Government decided sometime after Prama was discovered to battle the Metaphysicals." Mari added.
"To Hell with the Government, don't they realize that the Strikers are still humans, treating them like mere tools!" Asura growled, clenching his fists tightly like he wants to punch something right now.
Asura never felt angrier than he's feeling right now about those with power at the top are making others fight without rest and don't even care about how they feel like wanting to just go outside, this really made his blood boiled like hot water on a stove.
"I think I know what to do now." Asura said, Mari's confused of what he meant.
"I'm going to change that law so the S-Rank can have their freedom!" Asura declared his goal.
"Change the law, but that would mean you would have to be stronger than the Head Seven." Mari shocked.
"The Head Seven, are they like the strongest Saviors?" Asura asked.
"Yes, they are made up of seven strongest Saviors from different countries each with the power to destroy a Metaphysical that cannot be defeated alone, while they may rule over the Saviors of their country, they too have no freedom because of the power they wield." Mari explained about the Head Seven.
"Besides, how exactly are you gonna change the law?" Mari asked.
"I don't know, but one thing I do know is that even if it means going against the world itself, I'll destroy the living Hell they were to forced into!" Asura said raising his fist at the sky.
Mari's heart suddenly skipped a beat after hearing Asura's ambition to change the law and help the S-Rank Saviors have their freedom again, it made her face blushes that their boy would to such length to help all those Saviors he doesn't know and said he'll fight the world to do so.
This kid is crazy, and the craziest part is that she's falling in love with him even more than she realized.
KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!
Asura has a new goal now to somehow help give the S-Rank Saviors their freedom and he'll have his friends by his side on this path, hopefully things will go well but knowing it's Asura, he'll probably fight want to fight to settle the problem. Let see how he'll handle himself when he meets two of the Head Seven coming to the Academy.
Hope you like seeing Edward and Angela being brother and sister, I think they work better this way than in the anime, I think Angela would be better with Moroha in his harem.
Yasha has made his appearance as a powerful Savior having graduated early and becoming an S-Rank as well and being Shizuno's older twin brother. It's going to be an intense reunion between him and Asura.
