It was dark cloudy at the Holy Land Colosseum, and everyone was shocked (especially Chiaia) to know that Mexiah is the Black Sacred MechaMaster known as Doll, now inside the Sacred MechaLord as she and a few Sacred Mechanoids surrounded the White Sacred Mechanoid, whose Mechamaster is actually Kenshi including two Mechanoids having their guns pointed at the students and the others in the Mechaworkers.
"Big Sis Mexiah don't do this, you're a good person, I don't want to fight you and you don't want to do this…" said Kenshi
"I don't want to either, but fighting is my reason for existing. It's my destiny Kenshi…so I have no other choice…" said Doll
They then heard explosions outside of the arena, and what they saw next…was a Sacred Mechanoid flying and then came crashing down as the Mechanoid's top and bottom are separated…
"W-what th-" the Mechamasters including Doll are surprised by the damage done to the Mechanoid.
"Wait a minute, there's no one else besides Kenshi that's riding a Sacred Mechanoid that's fighting for us…unless-" before the Student Council President could finish, five small red red beams appeared outta nowhere, hitting 3 Mechanoids, giving Kenshi the chance to escape from the surrounding spot.
"So…this is the choice you made?"
Lithia and some of the others had expected him to be at the Colosseum except for Doll and the rest of the students (including the teachers, staff who were watching from the monitor that also includes Lashara, Maria, Yukine and Queen Flora) who see that the person emerged from the top of the arena entrance…was Jin (With the Holy Land Uniform open).
"Jin?! How did-"
What they saw wasn't a happy face on Jin at all, but the Battlemaster was pissed at a new level as he didn't even gritted his teeth, also his eyes hid in shadow. No veins shown on his face, but what appears to be a normal upset face was a face that no one would ever want to see on the Battlemaster as the first words that he said was…
"I just have to say…You just made the biggest mistake of your life…"
Tenchi Muyo: War on Geminar: The Two Saints
12 Days Earlier
Jin (Satoshi) was back in the Holy Land along with everyone as summer vacation is almost over (also the fact that Maria turned 15 a few days ago). As the Battlemaster just finished with his work, he heads to the Student Council President's office as some of the girls were blushing at what they're looking at…
Lithia was finished with another form of her work as she heard knocking on her door.
"Come in…"
The Battlemaster entered the room, but something immediately caught the council president attention…
"Is something wrong Lithia?" Said Jin, as it was followed by a meow sound.
"Jin…Why is there a Koro on top of your head?" said Lithia, looking at the furry creature laying on Jin's Head.
"Oh, this little guy just wanted to relax and thought my head was a perfect place for napping, so I don't mind for a bit" said Jin, gently scratching the creature's chin, making the Koro meow happily.
"I don't know how he can just let such a small creature on his head but…" The council president thinking it's too cute for a Koro to be resting on his head.
"What is it?" said Jin
"Uh…no, it's nothing…" she said while blushing.
"Okay…anything important came up at the council meeting?" he asked
"No…Nothing out of the ordinary, but I'll tell you when I get the chance" said Lithia
"Alright, I'll see you later then" Said Jin, leaving the office.
Lithia was now having suspicions of the attendant of The Havoniwan Princess. Ever since she saw how Jin fought and defeated the Assassin in the Sacred Mechanoid (without a mechanoid of his own), She was having thoughts about him being a machine, but that thought went straight out the window as she remembered losing her V-card to the Battlemaster and flushed like a tomato.
"Why am I thinking about that?! I'm not that lewd! Damn it Jin, why is your drunk state more worse than the Wild Beast?!" She thought
Outside of the Council President's office, heading to his next job, Jin and Kenshi (Who has just finishing class) sneezed.
"We're not coming down with a cold are we?" said Kenshi
"Don't think so...But Kenshi, right now I think we need to focus. My cover is in deep trouble and is gonna get blown soon thanks to that Assassin at the resort…also, it's seems like we have an additional problem…" said Jin
"Additional problem?" said Kenshi, as he looked around and see a few more workers around the Holy Land than it used to be.
"It looks like we have more workers around, you're worried that you might be out of a few jobs?" Kenshi asked
"Kenshi, this is not about money, it's about the lives of every single person that are actually living in the Holy Land that is home to them. It's gonna be a matter of time before another Assassin would show up, so be on your guard" said Jin
"Got it"
"Hey you two!" The two then saw Mexiah in their view.
"And especially keep your guard when you're around her" said Jin
"Huh? Now you're just acting crazy, why would-"
"Kenshi…there's something you don't know about Mexiah and it's something you're going to find out sooner or later…Trust me on this" said Jin
Kenshi then saw the seriousness on the face of his brother and then nodded in agreement.
"Come on, we need to get to our next job"
As Kenshi finished his next job, he decided to sit next and relax with Chiaia and a bored Empress Lashara till something had caught his eye, a girl with dark-red hair had snuck one of the students watch from her pouch, but that didn't go unnoticed by Empress' attendant as he went by her and in a silent swift of speed took back the watch and gave it back to its owner. While the dark crimson-haired girl known as Lan, was surprised at how Kenshi took the watch she stole from the student without her even knowing and returned it to her, she then remembered he was on the Havoniwan ship with the others.
While on the job working, Kenshi then encountered Lan with her seeing Kenshi's skills and not buying him being from the highlands, tried to persuade the boy to work with her and join her crew rather than working as the Empress' servant she says.
He replied "You shouldn't do stuff like that anymore…bye!" as he left to go back to doing his job.
She was now upset at the boy turning down her offer…
"That's what I get for trying to help…The dumb guy has been domesticated" she then turned around to see the disguised Battlemaster for a split second as he quickly clutched her mouth with his right hand and pulled her near his ear.
"I know the pilot in the Purple Mechanoid that attacked the resort is your mother…and I know that your crew is here…" Jin whispered
Lan was about to pull out a knife, but it magnetically pulled into the Battlemaster's left hand as he broke the knife to her surprise.
"Don't try anything stupid right now cause if you do, just like your other friend in that other Mechanoid that helped your mother, you won't make it back to them alive…" said Jin
Lan then felt him being serious as she felt a bit frightened.
"Keep your distance away from the boy…he is trying to live his life here and I can't have you or your friends messing with that. You can try to mess with me, but you'll end up finding your crew mates in bodybags"
"Just who is guy? And how does he know about me and my crew?" Lan thought
"Just so you know, you should think twice about joining Dagmyer and whoever else is joining him, cause it'll only be a matter of time before you understand what's going to come after this…Also if you didn't know, that friend of yours in the Mechanoid was one of the Assassins responsible for the death of Havoniwa's King"
Lan is now shocked and surprised, she knew that one of her former crew mates had a past, but didn't knew about him being one of the King's murderers.
"I advise that you don't know who I am right now and don't look my way, cause if you do, you'll wake up with amnesia and a concussion. If you understand nod twice, otherwise…" he then tightens his grip on her mouth as she then nodded twice.
"Good, we have an understanding then…but you should understand this as well…the value of life is more precious than the value of Jewelry, nether-less silver and gold" he then lets Lan go and walks by her and then said "One more thing…Stay away from Princess Maria, cause neither her or Queen Flora are responsible for the death and execution of your father"
She then turned around to ask him about how did he know about that, but the Battlemaster was nowhere in sight. She was now feeling nervous of what's to come because of the one man that knows about the young thief…
"How? How the hell does he know about what happened to my Dad?!" Lan thought
In the past Lan and her mother were residents living in Havoniwa with her father. One day during the assassination of King Sarix, one of the guards had suspected the man (even though the man saw one of them dropping their weapon) and the three guards had took him in and had him executed in view of the kingdom; and as Queen Flora and Cordyline were a bit close as friends in their past, the Queen had no choice but to exile the two from her kingdom to avoid any problems from the people on both of their sides. The two decided to not forget about what had happened that day as it was burned into their memory and would one day get revenge. But now as time passes 10 years, things have changed and there was just a giant obstacle standing in their way, and it was the Battlemaster himself…
It was Night at Princess Maria's dorm house as the princess was laying down, sleeping with the Battlemaster once again…
"You just like sleeping with me, do you?" said Jin
"Of course I do, you are very comfortable to be around with…and you're the only one that I'll ever give my heart to…" said Maria, kissing him on the cheek.
"Maria…"
"What is it?"
"Not to get into another one of your family matters…but I need to know something…"
"You're gonna ask me about Lashara's mother, are you?"
"Yeah, but how did you-"
"I know you now Sato, you have a knack of understanding one's pain and being the one that tries to end it all. But…If you're actually going to understand her pain the way you did mine, then you need to understand her pain is far more different from my own"
"Yeah, I understand you're saying"
"I guess you should know…in the past, a year before my father's death, sometimes when I visit them in Shtrayu… my Aunt, the late Empress Eireen Calanthe Earth was a very careful woman like my mother…nice to children and sometimes she would plant one of the most beautiful flowers I've ever seen…one day when me and Lashara had played, we were with Aunt Eireen at the time when we played tag…but as I was about to tag Lashara, she felt extremely frightened at what she was seeing and…" Maria was then tearing up at what she was about to say next…
"And when I turned around, I saw Aunt Eireen on the ground lifeless and I didn't know what was going on at the time…the only thing I heard was-" he then stopped her with a finger on her lips before she say anything else and then used the MBA and touched her forehead to look at her memories to see with his own eyes.
He looks at the memories of Maria as he is seeing from his point of view the two young girls playing with the late empress and then heard a swift weird sound that caught his attention and saw something struck the empress from behind as she fell to the ground lifeless. He looks at the late empress' back, no marks, no blood coming from the back or front…nothing…and turned around to see the young Lashara screaming her mother's name as she was bawling her eyes out.
He then moved his hand away from Maria's forehead and asked "How did they ruled her death?"
"They said that her heart was weak and that her body suddenly gave out for some reason and her heart accelerated to the point that it had completely shut down. After some time passed after mourning her mother's death, Lashara blames herself for it and can't forgive herself after what happened" said Maria
Satoshi then remembers the time after his biological family's death, he had blamed himself for their deaths when he was 6 years old and grabbed a sharp kitchen knife and ran out the house to commit suicide in-front of the Masaki family tree on that rainy day, but as he was about to put himself out of his misery without having any second thoughts, the spirit of his family had stopped him as they had wanted him to live his life to the fullest. He dropped the knife and started crying out as the Masaki family had founded him. But as they saw the knife on the ground, they now knew that he was trying to kill himself because Satoshi thought he was responsible for his own family's death which them fear for his life; The only one that hold him as he had let it all out…all the pain, all the suffering, all the agony he had bottled up for 2 years…was Ayeka as the rest try to comfort him. After that, he had decided to starve himself in his room for a day and half (but drink water in his room), but the one that gotten him out of that phase was Ryo-Ohki as she decided to let him know about the truth about his adopted family as Ryo turned into a cabbit (which shocked him at first, but thought that she was too cute to be upset at and cuddle with her as the rest of the family see the two from the monitor in Washu's lab) and he had decided to know more about his new family.
"Sato?" He then heard Maria's voice as he snapped out of his memories as he looked at princess.
"Yeah, I heard you. It seems like I need to investigate the case of Eireen's death" said Jin
"What?! But they ruled aunt's death-"
"I know, but a woman in near her 30s wouldn't just die from playing tag, that would just make jumping from the high roof less dangerous, plus when I took a look at your memory, I heard a weird sound that didn't sound right" said Jin
"Weird sound?"
"You didn't hear that sound back then?" He asked
The princess shook her head no and the Battlemaster finds that weird as he heard that sound and Lashara saw her mother dying in-front of her but just might've heard the sound as well. Something wasn't adding up and he was going to get to the bottom of it.
It was morning in the Holy Land as some of the students were still asleep, a few staff members were working and teachers were readying for their class. Mexiah was standing on the practice field with a wooden sword, practicing her skills till she saw Jin in sight.
"Oh wow, what are you doing here at this time of morning Kisaki?" said Mexiah
"I need to ask you something…"
"If it's a marriage proposal, then you're gonna have to try to do something mo-"
"It's about the late Empress Eireen…" Mexiah then went out of her play mode as she saw the seriousness in the face of the Battlemaster and she got off the practice field and sat with him.
"Maria told you about her didn't she?"
"She did, but I was the one that asked her about the late empress" said Jin
"You need to be careful when you talk about Eireen on campus, cause it might-"
"I know…*sighs* I know"
"Back then when I was a teenager, she was like another mother to me, she was one of the few people I could trust and get advice from besides Flora…Sometimes, I would often see her fuss at her husband about spending the national budget and she had a look that the Emperor couldn't try to go against…"
He thought "Wow, I kinda feel bad for Koyo" and said "So how did you feel about her death?"
"It was painful, but it was even more painful for Lashara as me, Chiaia and Maria were trying to comfort her to get her out of that lonely barrier she has around herself, but she wanted to be alone" said Mexiah, with a sad look
"No child should ever see their mother buried at that age, especially seeing their own mother dying in-front of them. It's not an experience that can be gone from your memory like that. It would take a lot of time for the wounds to heal in your heart and mind to get that thought out of your memory" said Jin
Mexiah then saw something familiar in him, but it felt foggy to her for some reason.
"Is something wrong Ms Mexiah?" Jin asked, snapping the teacher out of her thoughts.
"Uh…no, nothing really but I-"
"If you want me to stay quiet about Lashara's mother, then alright…I won't ask or mention it anymore" said Jin
"But why did you mention her?" Mexiah asked
"Cause now it's not only Princess Maria I'm worrying about, but now I'm worried about Empress Lashara. Ever since I heard from Maria about what happened to her father, I'm starting to get a weird suspicion that Empress Eireen didn't die from a weak heart" said Jin
"If what you said is true, then we got a big problem…especially when Lashara is in the middle of it" said Mexiah
Two days has passed after the conversation he had with Mexiah, and the Battlemaster was doing work in the Holy Land and was seeing her with the students (including Kenshi, Chiaia, Lashara, Maria, Aura, Wahanly and Yukine) watching other students go at it on the practice field. As he is not seeing anything wrong going on, he went on to finish his work and then go on to his next job.
The Empress was feeling a little quiet today for some reason but didn't know why she was feeling some type of way…
"Lashara, are you feeling okay today?" Chiaia asked
"We don't know…Maybe it's just not our day today…" said Lashara
From the far distance of the practice field of the Holy Land, a shadow-hooded cloaked figure was looking at the young Empress and then looked at the photo of her when she was three years old and the late Empress Eireen with her having Lashara on her lap smiling. The hooded-figure chuckled darkly at the photo as he then turned to the empress as he uses what looks like to be a small staff then turned into a arching bow as the bow turns an arrow into dark energy as he aims at the empress.
The young Shtrayu Empress was having a very chilling feeling that made her very afraid for some reason and was hearing a weird sound…
"Lashara, what's wrong?" Chiaia asked
"This sound…We haven't heard this since…"
Kenshi then heard a voice that rung in his head "KENSHI, GET LASHARA AND CHIAIA OUT OF THE WAY!"
The young attendant ran towards the Empress the bodyguard and pushed them both down as he as well got down.
"You idiot, have you lost your mind?!" said Chiaia
Kenshi then pointed his finger at the spot where the two was and saw a small big dent on the ground that then caught the attention of everyone.
"W-what on earth was…"
"Kenshi, how did you know-"
"Someone is trying to kill Empress Lashara from a very far distance" Kenshi interrupting Chiaia.
"A far distance?! Is it another-" The Dark Elf Princess then heard something coming from the forest as did Kenshi.
As the Archer Assassin from afar missed due to Kenshi intercepting the shot meant for Lashara, he decides to take the opportunity as his distractions are giving him another shot that was until…
"Could you explain what are you doing here assassinating Empress Lashara?" The non-disguised Battlemaster (Gray-Hoodied) was standing behind him…
The Archer Assassin then turned the bow into a long staff in a split second and attacked the Battlemaster, but Satoshi noticed how he moves as he dodges and blocks the staff with his feet and hits the assassin with a right hook. The assassin was seething as no one has ever hit him before in the past.
"I'm not gonna say this again…Why are you targeting Empress Lashara?" The Battlemaster asked
"Wouldn't you like to know…" The Archer replied
Four close-combat assassins came out of the forest going after Lashara, but Kenshi along with Mexiah and Princess Aura protecting her by stopping them. From the distance, Lan is about to watch the fight that is going to happen.
"Be careful, these are trained assassins" said Kenshi
"Don't forget who you're talking to Kenshi…" Mexiah replied
"And I can take care of myself" said Aura
Two assassins came at Kenshi and the other two came at the Dark Elf Princess and the Teacher.
From afar the Battlemaster is seeing his brother and the others fighting the other assassins. The Archer Assassin secretly pulled out a smokescreen bomb and activated his flying machine (generated from aho in his backpack). Satoshi turned around for see the assassin hit the smokescreen to escape and go after the Empress. The Battlemaster disappeared as he was a duplicate.
Everyone then see smoke from afar and see the assassin flying in his glide contraption coming near the Empress and had his transformed staff to a bow, creating an arrow of dark energy, aiming directly at the scared Empress (Who then remembered that same weird sound before her mother died).
Princess Maria then got in the way to shield her cousin from the assassin.
"Maria!" The Empress looked shocked at what she's doing...
"Princess Maria!" As was everyone…
"I won't let you hurt Lashara you coward!" said Maria
"A Princess and an Empress…killing two birds with one stone" said the Archer
"DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!" The Archer turned to where he heard the voice to find the Battlemaster (back in disguise) coming straight at him (by hoverboard).
The Archer then turned his aiming at the Battlemaster and fired at him as the blast went fast and was invisible, but Jin had good senses and evaded the blast including a few.
Mexiah and the students were in shock to see Jin in action.
Jin increased the speed of the hoverboard and was coming at the Archer like a speeding bullet, he then jumped off the board (as the board magnetically went to the small size and back on the belt) and tackled him straight into one of the windows of the academy near Lithia's council room (also destroyed the Archer's glide machine).
"JIN!" Both the Princess and the Empress yelled
Meanwhile in the hallway of the academy near Lithia's council room where the Battlemaster tackled the Archer, the two collided at the wall (making a dent and cracking it) and both was on the floor. The Battlemaster got up and had blood slowly dripping from his head. Jin was getting ticked off as was the Archer as he got up as well.
"You are getting on my nerves like that hooded guy!" said The Archer, who turned his bow into staff again.
"I won't let you hurt the Princess nor the Empress!" said Jin, getting in his stance.
The Archer and Jin were going at it as other students and a few staff (Including Jozzy) were looking at the fight.
"Everybody get away!" Jin Yelled as he took a blow to the gut by the staff.
The Archer knocked the Battlemaster on the ground as a few backed away in fear.
All of a sudden, the door to the Council's office was opened and out came the Council President as she was upset by all the noise.
"Just what in the world is going o-" She then saw the Battlemaster as he looked he was down for the count.
"Jin?" She then looked at the person that attacked him and remembered a bad vibe from her past as she stood there shaken up and afraid.
"W-What are you doing here? I-It can't be you…I heard th-that you died in that explosion!" said Lithia
"The Pope's granddaughter, how gracious of me to see you again…and for the last time as well" said The Archer, turned the staff back into a bow.
"Th-That's…" The Archer then took his shot at the Student Council President, but luckily her Assistant Lapis came to her rescue as she tackled her down, saving the two of them.
"Lady Lithia, are you okay?" Lapis asked, The Council was shocked that her assistant did something that reckless that would cost the girl her own life.
The Battlemaster looked up and see both Lithia and Lapis in trouble as the Archer was about to take another shot…
"Good save young lady, but let's see if you or your mistress can dodge this next on-" The Battlemaster's shoes glowed slightly green as he went quickly fast and tackled the Archer into another window, breaking and going out of the window with him.
"JIN!" Lithia Yelled
As the students outside see the window breaks, they ran quickly out of the way to avoid getting hit. Along with the falling glass, comes the tackling Battlemaster putting the Archer into the ground.
"Y...You got to be one of the most craziest guys to ever try that!" Said The Archer
"Cause I won't let you hurt anyone else!" Jin landed two forearm elbows to the assassin's face, and as he was going for the third, another assassin came outta nowhere and grabbed his right arm.
"Jin look out!" Said Maria
As the the assassin was about to stab Jin in the back with a kunai, the Battlemaster quickly flipped behind the assassin and snapped the right arm, making him yell out in pain as he dropped the kunai from his left hand, but Jin quickly snatched the kunai in mid-air and had it near the assassin's throat.
"Call your men off Assassin! And put your weapon down now!" said Jin
The Archer was laughing as he said "You really think it's that easy…?" He then aimed at Jin holding the assassin and said "Well it's not!" He fired the energy arrow at the Battlemaster without hesitation and didn't care if it hit one of his men. Jin luckily got out of the way as the arrow hit the other assassin, killing him as he fell to the ground.
"You shot one of your own men?!" said Jin
"Heh heh, it's that easy for me cause it'll get the job done, but I'm afraid it isn't easy for you" The Archer stomped on Jin's gut then pointed the weapon at him, readying to finish him off with the arrow, until a knife came flying out and cause a small cut to the weapon and to the right cheek of the assassin's face. Jin then looked up with his head back and from upside down he saw the knife came from Chiaia.
"You know what? I think shooting you would just get boring, so how about I make this fun?" The Archer then turned his bow into a double-edged spear.
"Oh no…" Lithia turned around to see the shocked and afraid Headmistress.
"Headmistress what's going on? And why is this man still alive?!" The council president asked
"I don't know how is he alive, but he has one of the most deadliest weapons that The Church had hidden for decades…The Mourning Basilisk" said Headmistress
"CHIAIA GET AWAY!" Jin Yelled, before getting kicked by the Archer, knocked him out for a bit.
Kenshi quickly knocked down the two assassins and hurried to Chiaia before it too late.
"You Little Bitch!" The Archer's spear glowed violet as he jumped near Chiaia as she covering for Maria and Lashara.
"CHIAIA!" Mexiah Yelled
Then a sound was heard…as the Battlemaster got on his knees and looked up and was in complete shock as was everyone who saw. There was blood on the ground as it came from the spear attack, and the one who took the hit…was Kenshi.
"KENSHI!" Chiaia Screamed
The young boy took a hit to the right of his abdomen, but as he took a hit, his pupils looked as they were lifeless.
The Battlemaster seeing as it happened, he looked back at all of his memories from when he first met him after he lost his family to the rest of his childhood, then to his teen years training with Kenshi and his grandfather (Who taught him different styles of fighting including Sato's late grandfather's as he got older), from camping to swimming on the beach with his new family. But as he is seeing his brother getting stabbed by an assassin's transforming spear, he was thinking that it was going to happen again…
"This…is the true form of my weapon" said Archer
The students and the Headmistress from the window are in shock of Kenshi getting stabbed by the assassin.
The Archer pulled the spear from the young boy as Kenshi fell to the ground.
"Kenshi? Kenshi?! Wake up you idiot! Kenshi!" said Chiaia, holding the young boy.
The Empress was completely afraid as she had remembered that same memory as she was 3 years old at that time.
The Archer laughed and said "Oh, did the little empress lose another one close to her? That's too sad, but how about I send you to where they are? You just can enjoy the afterlife with your friends and family after all!" The Archer readying the Mourning Basilisk as he was going to stab and kill Lashara.
"NO!" Chiaia and Mexiah yelled
(I don't own any music whatsoever)
But all of a sudden, the spear that was going to kill the Empress was stopped in its tracks by a hand that was slightly bleeding but it was no one other than the Battlemaster himself. Jin's eyes were hidden in shadow by some of the bangs in his hair including the blood dripping from his face. The Archer was trying to move his weapon out of Jin's hands, but to no avail, he couldn't move his weapon due to the fact that it could break. The Archer looked at the Battlemaster on what looks to be an normal upset face from the outside was actually something that Jin was keeping on the inside.
"Jin?" And since Maria knows the truth about her attendant, she (including Wahanly) realizes that the Archer had just crossed the line.
Did I find the blood inside my bones
Reaching out into the great unknown?
What a life, what a fucked up love we hold
Polarized by what we can't control
"You got a lot of balls to do what you did, but you step on a landmine and you're going to regret it" said Jin
"Heh heh heh, do think I'd be afraid o-" he then stopped talking as he was feeling something that was not of this world coming from him.
"Did you bite your tongue? Or does my presence scare you?" said Jin
The Archer took a knife from his back pocket and try to stab the Battlemaster but he caught the Archer's wrist, tightening his grip to prevent the Archer from making his move.
We have the chance to realize
Are we the stars, or just the sky? We have the chance to find our eyes… So are you coming with me?
Feeling the pain from Jin's grip he asked "What the hell are you?! Are you even human?!"
"Human? You should ask that yourself…You, who shed the blood of your own comrades and the blood of my friends. Now you'll see what I do with scum like you!"
I'll go, whoa, hey hey hey
I'll go, whoa, hey hey hey
Jin connected with a reverse dropkick to the Archer's chin, making the assassin drop the knife as Jin caught it, then kicked the Archer into mid-air to jump, side-spin and kicked him to the Sparring Field, bouncing him to the grass.
Mexiah and the students are in shock of Jin's fighting skills as are the Headmistress and the others that are watching.
When you find the dust behind the sun
You're alive, but so misunderstood
The Battlemaster front-flipped to the Sparring Field and said to Mexiah and Aura "Stay back, the bastard is mine…"
"But Ji-"
"Please…I don't want anyone else to get hurt" The Dark Elf Princess and Martial Arts Teacher listened to him and went to the students to protect them.
We're so afraid to change our minds
Are we the shark or just the prize
No I'm not afraid to open wide
So are you coming with me?
The Archer got up from the ground as Two of the Close-Combat assassins got by his side as the Archer said "Why you litt-"
"You talked enough, it's time for you to meet your fate" said Jin, walking towards the Archer as he walked passed the other two 'Knocked Out' Close-Combat assassins.
The Archer grinned and Yelled "KILL HIM!"
I'll go, whoa, hey hey hey
I'll go, whoa, hey hey hey
The Two Knocked Out assassins got up to surprise the Battlemaster with knives, but Jin knew the whole time as he evaded by moving back and quickly sliced the throat of one of the surprising assassins, then sliced the fingers of the other assassin, grabbing the other knife and jabbed it underneath his chin, killing the two assassins.
Climb the sky or cauterize (or cauterize)
Golden eyes are better blind (are better blind)
The other two assassins came at him, but the Battlemaster was quick as he stabbed the third assassin leaving the knife deep in the nape, cutting off the circulation of air in his esophagus, killing the third. The Fourth assassin was trying to find his weak point and tries to go after the others, but Jin wouldn't have it as he came behind him, clutched his mouth very tight and snapped his neck from the back, killing the fourth one, leaving the Archer as the last one.
I don't know what I'm meant to see, meant to see
So I'll just hold my breath, and wait for gravity
Everyone was completely shocked and afraid at what Jin had just done and without any hesitation from him whatsoever.
We don't know what we're meant to see, meant to see
So we'll just hold our breath
We don't know what we're meant to see, meant to see
So we'll just hold our breath
"W-What the-JUST WHAT KIND OF MONSTER ARE YOU?!" The Archer is feeling a very bad presence coming from him which made him back away in fear.
"Someone you shouldn't have crossed and someone who's behind your death door" Jin walked towards the last assassin with nothing left in his way and no second thought in his mind as the assassin's blood that was shed on his face made him more intimidating to the last assassin.
The Archer growled at his remark turned the Mourning Basilisk into a bow and try to finish him in one shot.
"JIN!"
"Mr Kisaki, get out of the away!" The Headmistress yelled
So we'll just hold our breath
Now are you coming with me?
The Archer was charging energy to fire but there was a problem which was very weird…the weapon felt incredibly heavy and he couldn't move his body.
"I…can't-I CAN'T MOVE!" said The Archer, now feeling true fear.
The Battlemaster's shoes slightly glowed as he was moving in invisible speed…
I'll go, whoa, okay I'll go, whoa
Climb the sky or cauterize (or cauterize)
Golden eyes are better blind (are better blind)
He punched through the bow, breaking it in two, landing a big blow to the gut, knocking the air out of the Archer.
"He destroyed The Bow!" Said Aura
Jin then went ballistic on the Archer, going at him with unreal kicks, knees to the face, back elbows, and 24 punches to the chest and face (including hitting a few arteries).
Lan then realized the person that was talking to her that day was him, also the fact that his words just reached her as she is seeing what the Battlemaster is doing…
I'll go, I'll go, I'll go
Hey hey hey
I'll go, I'll go, I'll go
Now are you coming with me?
Jin grabbed the Archer's face (with his left hand) to lift him up before he hit the ground as he snarled in anger, then kicked him in the air (in position of the Sparring Field) as everyone was looking at beaten Archer, the Battlemaster jumped into the air, corkscrew flipped, then axe-kicked the Archer in the heart, finishing him as the two landed onto the Sparring Field, leaving a few cracks. The Battlemaster was standing victorious over the now lifeless body of the Archer.
With Me!
(Music End)
Jin was breathing heavily but he said "That…that was for Kenshi. And don't you ever…get back up"
He then turned his attention to the weapon as the broken bow turned into the now broken spear. Jin walked towards the destroyed weapon and picked it up as the MBA showed him how many people that were killed by the weapon. The disguised Battlemaster was growing in anger, shaking and seething as Mexiah and Yukine came by his side.
"Jin, are you alright?" Mexiah asked
"Why do weapons like this even EXIST?!" He threw the broken weapon back on the ground as Mexiah backed away a bit. Tears were shedding in his eyes as Yukine had her hand on his shoulder to calm down.
The others heard a yelp and turned to see Chiaia and Kenshi, who took stab for his friend, sitting up a bit but was still bleeding as he was clutching his wound.
"You jerk, you scared us to death!" said Chiaia
"Ugh…sorry" said Kenshi, coughing up blood.
Jin hurried to his little brother's side as was Yukine and Mexiah as he said "Kenshi, are you alright?"
"Yeah, but I'm feeling a lot of pain and feeling dizzy" he replied
"Of course you're feeling dizzy and pain, you're losing blood" said Jin, taking off Kenshi's uniform shirt to see a few colored spots near his wounded spot and mumbled "Shit…"
"What's wrong?" Said Mexiah
"I need to take him back to our dorm and treat him immediately. Kenshi, focus on your breathing" said Jin, tying the uniform around Kenshi's waist and placed him on his shoulder.
"Jin, please hurry…" said Maria
"Got it…Empress Lashara…" The Empress looked at the attendant through the blood on his face as he said "This isn't your fault…that bastard had it coming for doing this" The Battlemaster ran at a quick pace of speed to Maria's dorm.
"Hey…we can use the Mechaworker to catch up with them" said Wahanly
The others followed Wahan quickly to her workshop as did Lithia and Lapis, but the assistant stopped for a moment as she picked up a folded paper that looked like a small photograph that immediately caught her attention but she had no time to look at it or think about it now as she put it in her pocket and went with Lithia.
The Mechaworker with most of the girls arrived at Maria's dorm, as they arrived one of the maids looked worried as she looked at the door to the basement.
"Did Jin took a boy with him down the basement?" Maria asked, the maid nodded as the girls opened the door and went downstairs. They walked down to see a bloodied uniform, bloodied towel, a clean wash rag and a bowl of water mixed with blood and a syringe filled with infected blood. The girls were horrified by all the blood that they're seeing on one of the counters but they turned their attention to the Battlemaster sitting down with bandages wrapped around his forehead and his hands, while Kenshi is asleep, laying down with white bandages wrapped around his waist.
The girls were silent for the moment, but as they were about to speak about Kenshi's condition…
"He'll be alright. I removed the poison from his infected body, cleaned his wounds and gave him herbal medicine to give him back some strength he lost when he got stabbed and closed his wound. He's not gonna be working for about 2-3 days, but he needs a lot of rest" said Jin
"Jin, we are in great debt to you for saving Kenshi's life" said Lashara
"There's no need for that, if I had done what I did sooner then…"
"There's no need to act like that…like you said before you took Kenshi here: 'That bastard had it coming for doing this', isn't that what you said? And besides that, he forced your hand when he nearly killed Kenshi and Chiaia" Said Mexiah
"Thank you for reminding me…" said Jin, pinching his nose while sighed.
"Jin, what you just di-"
"I don't like killing…" he interrupted Aura
"But why did you-" Lithia was going to ask before being interrupted by the Battlemaster.
"Cause I had no choice! People like them can never be reasoned with and I'm not proud of what I did…it can leave a bad taste in your mouth and could leave you a bad memory no matter how hard you want it to go away…it stays there. But when the people I care about like you girls and Kenshi get hurt, I snap…And when I do, the hunter that hurts innocent people or even hurts their own becomes the hunted in the worst way possible" Jin explained
"Even if it's a Sacred Mechanoid?" said Mexiah
"Like I said…The Hunter becomes the hunted in the worst way possible" Jin repeated
The Teacher can really tell that the Battlemaster was serious as she saw something that confuses her but couldn't find a fit on it.
"Lithia…"
"Y-Yes?"
"Tell me…How do you know about the assassin?" Jin asked
"That man…I heard about him from my grandfather as he showed me his picture. He used to be part of The Church in the advanced fighters group…but 14 years ago, he had gone rogue and killed 2 main members of the Church and tried to leave, but the Sacred Mechamasters chased him, fired their weapons and destroyed his ship with him supposedly in there. But it looks like he did survived the explosion, but the question to the fact is…how?" said Lithia
"14 Years…" Jin was about to have it all come together but needed one more thing…
"Hey Jin…" The Battlemaster turned his attention to the Council President's assistant.
"What is it Lapis?"
"Did you dropped this?" Lapis handed Jin a folded paper in what revealed to be a photo that turned his calm expression back to a upset one.
"Where did you find this?" He asked
"It was under my feet before I had went with Lady Lithia to Wahan's Mechaworker"
He looked at the photo again, then at her and said "Lapis, you are going to get credit where credit is due cause now everything is coming together"
"What do you mean by that?" said Lapis
"Lithia…contact your grandfather immediately…"
"Call the Pope/Call my Grandfather?!" The girls in shock for Jin to make that suggestion of calling someone of high profile.
Maria along with Mexiah, Lapis, The Headmistress and Lithia was wondering what is going on in Jin's mind by making a demand of high caliber of calling the Pope.
"Mr Kisaki, I hope you know what you're getting yourself into…cause calling the Pope at a time like this is to tell him of important details" said Headmistress
"I know but this is important…very important" said Jin
The holographic call reached the Church as the Pope's face is shown and they bowed.
"Of what information that you have called me for Lithia?" said The Pope
"Grandfather…there is someone who wants to talk to you of great importance" said Lithia, motioned the Battlemaster to walk towards the screen.
"Great Pope, I'm an attendant of Princess Maria of Havoniwa. There is something that I want to talk to you about" said Jin
"Are you about to ask me to have my granddaughter's hand in marriage?" said The Pope
"G-Grandfather!" The Council President flushed in highlights.
"This is about one of your members in the advanced fighters group that went rogue 14 years ago…" The Pope then saw seriousness on the boy's face and voice.
"What about him?" He asked
"Pope, the rogue assassin had returned…he has targeted Empress Lashara and has wounded her attendant; he has even attempted to kill your Granddaughter my lord" said Headmistress
"He's alive?!"
"Was alive Great Pope. Bring the body in!" said Jin
Aura and Wahanly opened the door to bring in the corpse of the dead Archer to the shock of the Pope and the members of the Church who are watching this.
"My word…to think after all these years he indeed survived…are you the one who brought him down?" said The Pope
"Yes Sir"
"You must have quite the skill…who taught you how to fight?"
"My Late Grandfather left me with his techniques when I was 6, but Princess Maria's mother taught me a few moves" said Jin
"I see, Queen Flora…she was the Holy Land Master of Martial Arts. But this isn't all is it?"
"No, it isn't…" He then showed the Pope the spear that's broken in two.
"The Mourning Basilisk…something told me that he didn't just went rogue on purpose, but to have his hands on one of the forbidden weapons the Church had hidden was something unimaginable" said The Pope
"Why did the Church ever created a weapon like this?" said Jin
"We didn't…"
"But who did?!"
"Mr Kisaki!" The headmistress was about to fuss at him for burst out loud but…
"It's all right Headmistress, he deserves to know…17 years ago, a man from the science department at the Barrier Workshop thought that the weapon like this would be perfect for attacking rogue Sacred Mechamasters, but he then went mad and 'experimented' his weapon on 3 people in the workshop, Emperor Koyo and a few Church members had to put him down" said The Pope
"So…if my hunches are correct, if you put two and two together, then that means the man that created this weapon was the rogue assassin's father" They are surprised and impressed by how he can find the answer by the way he does his calculations.
"Your eye is really on the ball kid, it's surprising that you can put deductions like that on point to even find out the reason why he targeted Empress Lashara" Pope asked
"That's not the only reason…When he tried to kill your granddaughter, her assistant jumped and saved Lithia from death by that energy shot, when the assassin had tried to go for the second shot to kill both Lithia and Lapis, I had tackled him out the window to prevent the second shot from being made. After the battle when he was permanently taken down, I had to go treat my friend's wounds, while Lapis had found something under her foot that came from the assassin's pocket that is key evidence of why he attempted to assassinate the Empress and…and it was this photo…" The Battlemaster showed the photo to everyone and they were now completely shocked at what they're looking.
"My word…"
"That's-"
"No way…"
"It's…"
A photo of Lashara at the age of 3 sitting on the lap of her late mother Empress Eireen Calanthe Earth…
"So, you're saying that-"
"14 Years ago, when you and the Church had confirmed the death of the rogue assassin, 3 years had passed since that time and Empress Eireen was supposedly dead by a 'weak heart'. But in actuality she didn't die from a weak heart…how I know is because I had secretly looked into Shtrayu's Health data and reviewed her health files the day before her death and find that her condition was completely clean, meaning that she was healthy the day it had happened…and due to what we've seen by what this weapon can actually do, all signs now pointed at that direction especially when he set the perfect timing of that fateful day…" said Jin
"Jin…are you telling us that Aunt Eireen…"
Her attendant looked down, nodded and said "Yes…she was killed by this bastard that's now dead"
Everyone in the room was silent about the truth that was told by the Battlemaster. Tears were shed by Maria and Lapis who cupped her mouth. Aura, Wahanly, Lithia and Mexiah (who shed a tear) was upset by just looking at the dead body of what is now Eireen's Killer…
"I'll burn the body and close the case at this point" said Jin, to the girls looking at him surprised at his actions.
"Jin…" Lithia looked worried as was the others but he kept a calm posture.
"I'm the one that killed him and I'm the one that needs to finish it" said Jin
"And the weapon?"
"It will be completely destroyed"
"For a boy that is Princess Maria's attendant, you have quite the intelligence on you, fighting skills and a strong heart at that…Would you possibly consider of joining us in the future?" The girls then were surprised by the proposal that the Pope was giving him.
"I would have to decline sir. My loyalty is to Princess Maria and my friends, cause I don't want anything else happen to them the way it had in the past" said Jin
"I understand…I will write an apology letter to Empress Lashara for the mistakes that 'We' The Church have caused for 16 years for letting that man join us" said The Pope
"Please do…" said Jin
The Pope looked at his Granddaughter's assistant and said "You are a brave young girl Lapis…keep up the good work of helping my granddaughter"
The call ended and everyone had their eyes on the Battlemaster as he said "Don't anybody tell Lashara about this, cause I have to be the one to break the news to her" They understand as the news were too heavy to break to the empress on their shoulders.
"Mr Kisaki, how did you get your hands on late Empress' health files?" Said Headmistress
"I had secretly snuck into the Holy Land database to get the info. For doing that I'm sorry, but the way that Empress Eireen died was getting to me. And there was possibly no way that she could've just died from playing with Princess Maria and Empress Lashara. I had to solve this…"
"Jin you didn't…" Lithia was surprised at the Battlemaster for going to high lengths such as sneaking into the database.
"Be it as it may, sneaking into the Holy Land database to get classified information is highly offensive and this can get you banished from the Holy Land…" said The Headmistress
They are gasping at this cause this was serious.
"But…your selfless actions have saved the lives of the students, your Mistress including Empress Lashara, Lady Lithia, Lapis, Chiaia and especially Kenshi's. In fact, you solved the case of Empress Eireen's death and put down her killer. I guess, if you hadn't started your investigation, then Shtrayu would've lost their last heir to the empire. So in recognition of what you did, I will overturn my decision of banishing you from the Holy Land" said Headmistress
The girls then have a breath of relief.
"Thank you Headmistress" said Jin
"But don't try to do that again, next time just ask…"
The Battlemaster nodded and said "By the way Headmistress, where do you put your incinerators in the Holy Land?"
Everyone at the room was in the Incinerator room as Hannah lead them there.
"I don't understand why you guys wanted to burn the body here, but I understand from what Jozzy told me that he's the one that put Kenshi on the injured list" said Hannah
Before he even think about putting the dead assassin in the incinerator, something told him to stop.
"Is something wrong Mr Kisaki?" Headmistress asked
"I need to make sure he's dead before I put him in there"
"Wait…by that you mean-"
"Everyone look away now and cover your ears…" They then felt a chill up their spine when he said that, but did what he said to them. While they're eyes were in the other direction and ears were covered, bones were broken, legs were bended sideways like an unreal action figure and fingers were snapped in a different directions as was the assassin's neck. As he was finished, he toss the body into the incinerator and closed it.
Jin tapped Hannah's back to her turning towards him as did everyone.
"What is it Kisaki?" Said Hannah
"Do you have a sludgehammer?" Jin asked
They sweatdropped at what insanity Jin was doing…
They were in the different area of the forest of the Holy Land, and they were confused on why he wanted to be in this area.
"I don't get why we have to be here, you could've put the weapon in the incinerator…" said Aura
"You're sure about that? Think about it…a weapon that transforms and contrasts bad energy. Also putting it together with a dead body, would undergo a transformation by fusing the body and the weapon-"
"Okay okay, you made your point. But why here?"
"To test out my latest experiment…the Cryo-Zero Grenade" he put on his gloves and took out a small blue bomb in his pouch that made everyone back away.
"What are you doing with something like that?" Said Headmistress
"Well, it is for dangerous situations like this weapon. Also I needed to find out if I had used the correct amount of concentrated Liquid Nitrogen and Nitroglycerin for this…" said Jin
"Liquid Nitrogen? What's that?" said Wahanly
The Battlemaster sweatdropped and said "For a genius that works on big things like the Mechaworker and other things in the Barrier Workshop, I'm surprised that you don't know stuff like this. Liquid Nitrogen is a cryogenic liquid which can cause rapid freezing especially if you touch it with your bare hands. Might as well show you…" Jin threw the weapon at a distance and then threw the small blue bomb at the weapon, it exploded into a frozen smoke as they felt the cold air and see the weapon as it looked like it done nothing.
"Sludgehammer…" Hannah handed him the hammer to Jin for him to run straight at the weapon and slam the hammer hard as the weapon shattered in pieces like glass as they see it with their own eyes were in awe of the effects of the chemical weapon he used.
"Well, that's one way of breaking the ice" said Wahanly
Jin shattered the Mourning Basilisk piece by piece, every part of the weapon till it's no more.
"Tell me, about how cold and dangerous is this liquid nitrogen?" said Hannah
"About… -321 degrees Fahrenheit" he replied
"That much?! That type of stuff can freeze a person solid like a statue! Neither less, it can kill a person on target if not careful!" said Wahanly, making the everyone looked surprised at the Battlemaster's intelligence and his invention.
"We'll talk about that later…but right now, it's over and done with…Now I have to replace the windows, fix the sparring field-"
"Hold on there Mr Kisaki…I think that you did enough work for today…and since we have enough workers around, you can take a few weeks off, besides that…Kenshi isn't the only one that needs to recover" said Headmistress, looking at some of the bandages the Battlemaster has…
He sighed and said "Alright, but I'm gonna have to be Kenshi's Physiotherapist for the time being till he's at 100%"
"Consider it done" said Headmistress
"Physiotherapist? Can you even make sure that the Wild Beast doesn't cause any trouble in your condition?" said Lithia
"It's better than him being in Ms Mexiah's hands…" he replied
"Got a point…" said the girls (excluding Mexiah and Hannah (who was laughing))
"How rude!" she pouted
"Look, You got students to teach and I'm not taking your job…you have to make sure that their future don't end up just like that bastard…" said Jin
The Mechaguardian knew he was right, it would be bad if the students had ended up like the man that nearly killed her sister and the empress.
"Speaking about that…"
"I know…I'll tell her…"
The Headmistress and Hannah went back to their workplace to inform the students and staff about Kenshi's condition as everyone else went to the Empress' royal dorm. They see herbs and fish hung by the side of the house and immediately know it's Kenshi's doing.
They see the door opened and they see one of the Empress' attendants, Mahya.
"Ms Mexiah, I'm glad that you're here"
"What's wrong Mahya?" The Teacher asked
"It's the Empress…she's all locked up in her room. We tried to get her out of her room, but she won't even listen" said Mahya
Mexiah remembered the last time she done this, it was at the time when she was 8. The Battlemaster had his hand on her shoulder and said "Let me do this…"
"Excuse me young man-"
"It's okay Mahya…Jin is one who saved Lashara's life from the assassins and also treated Kenshi's wounds" Mexiah interrupted
"Oh…Excuse my rudeness Mr Kisaki" said Mahya
"It's no problem ma'am. Where's Empress Lashara's room?" He asked
The other attendants Angela and Vanessa escorted the Battlemaster to her room where he sees the locked door, Jin motioned the attendants to go back downstairs. He knocked on the door as he heard "Leave us alone!"
"It's me Empress…"
"…! Jin?"
"Yes, it's me. Don't worry, there's no one else but me, so could you please open this door?" He asked
"How do we know that this isn't a trick or a plot just so that we can open the door?" Said Lashara
"Whether it's a trick or not, I'm the only one at your door…so you can either open it or I'll kick it down and I will do it…either way it's your call…" he then heard a click sound meaning the door is unlocked.
"Smart choice…" he opened the door to come in her room and the empress was behind him as she closed the door and locked it again.
"What are you doing here?" Said Lashara
"The same reason why you locked yourself up in your room…you still believe that Kenshi being hurt was your fault? Including Chiaia, Lithia and Lapis nearly being killed-"
"But it was our fault! We couldn't do anything to help them and all we did was watch them nearly die! We're-I'm not fit to be called Empress…I can't even protect my mother…" she shed tears as he looked at her as if she looked broken, seeing her using 'I' and 'my' for herself would be normal but it was completely unlike her.
The Battlemaster touched the side of her head as he looked at her memory…He sees her memories in her point of view and saw her mother smiling on the field as she and Maria were playing tag with her, but as she turned around, she saw a dark energy coming at Eireen as it struck her from the back, leaving the late Empress on the ground lifeless.
He was shocked as he then understand what she meant as he saw that as a guilt of her past.
"Y-You knew she was murdered the whole time? Why didn't you tell your father about this?!" He asked
"I was so scared at that time, I didn't want to lose father the same way it had happened to mother…" she cried
"*sighs* I don't blame you…and at the age of 3…that must've been the worst thing that has ever happened to you. It must've been a living hell without your mother in your life" said Jin
"If I had played with Maria and Mother inside the house, she wouldn't have-"
"Lashara…"
She saw the seriousness on his face as he was going to explain the details…
"Before you were even born, 17 years ago a crazed man had created the weapon that has killed your mother…your father and the members of the church had put him down before anyone innocent got killed and secretly hid the weapon away at the Church. The crazed man' son that you saw me put down had sought revenge by first joining the church and lied his way for 2 years till he went rouge and stole the weapon his father created and faked his death to wait 3 more years to exact his revenge and took it on your mother" Jin explained
"W-what do you mean?"
"What I mean is…Your mother's death wasn't your fault and neither was it your father's…it was the fault of the assassin and his father for their arrogance that you have been suffering all these years…But now it's over and done with, so your mother's soul can rest a bit easy now that the weapon has been destroyed and the assassin is in hell…so you can now let all of that pain you held in for years go cause right now it's all over Lashara" said Jin
She then understand…after all these years, the pain, the guilt she had carried ever since she was 3, she can finally let it all go as she cried heavily on Jin's chest as he held her around his arms.
"Thank you…"
"Hm?"
Even as she was crying, she was smiling as she said "Thank you so much Jin! We don't know how much this means to us"
The Battlemaster hasn't realized how much joy he brought on the face of the Empress, but smiled for her as she is back to her normal but more relieved happier self.
They explained to Lashara's attendants and Chiaia about the assassin and how Eireen's death really happened. Chiaia shed a few tears and held the Empress like she was her little sister as did Angela and Vanessa.
"Mr Kisaki, we can't thank you enough for what you done. If the late Emperor Koyo were still here, he would be grateful for what you done for his wife" said Mahya
"I only did it cause it would put Empress Eireen's soul at rest and to get that weight of guilt off of Lashara's back Ms Mahya" said Jin
"Again Mr Kisaki, thank you…"
"Mhmm…We'll see you later" Jin along with Maria and Yukine (who was at the dorm for Kenshi) went back to their dorm. The Battlemaster hasn't really put Eireen's soul to rest just yet but at ease…after seeing the memories of her killer, he knows who hired him to do the dirty deeds.
The next day at Lashara's Royal Dorm…
"While it is a pleasure to have you here, could you explain why are you here in our dorm early in the morning?" said Lashara, sitting with her legs crossed, drinking tea.
"Well, the Headmistress has granted me a few weeks off with pay…Also with the fact that Kenshi's condition is putting him out of school and work for a few days, I have been assigned to be his Physiotherapist till he's at 100% or better…" said Jin
"Physio-what? So what you are saying is…you're his physical therapist?" said Lashara
"Correct…where is Kenshi anyway?"
Chiaia was in Kenshi's room, about to wake up the young boy himself. But something was bothering her…Kenshi, the very person that was used as a extendable pawn to assassinate the Empress, took a deadly stab for her and Lashara. And also learning about the weapon and the rogue assassin's past, she felt disappointed in herself on not protecting the empress the way she could. She was also so confused on why Kenshi nearly sacrificed his life to protect her. She then looked at his neck and see his pendant with the red cord she had made for him and was surprised that he even sleeps with it. As she had leaned closer, she tripped a bit and almost fell on him, but her lips were nearly at his and as Kenshi was mumbling a bit, his lips touched Chiaia's by a peck. She was flushing as she backed away a bit to see a surprised empress and a shocked Battlemaster.
Before she could even form words in her mouth, Jin said "We'll be heading downstairs" and took Lashara downstairs with him. The red-haired girl has never felt so much embarrassment in her life as it was her first kiss and it was seen by the Empress and Kenshi's Brother (that she still doesn't know).
Kenshi woke up, yawned and the first person he sees is Chiaia, saying "Good Morning…"
Chiaia wanted to plow his head in so hard, but seeing the innocent look on his face when he wakes up, she changed her mind as she said "G-Good Morning" while looking away blushing.
After breakfast, Chiaia went outside to see what physical exercise Jin is putting Kenshi into…only to see Kenshi blindfolded, sitting in a meditation form, lifting Koros over his head.
"What type of exercise is this?" Chiaia asked
"Koro Launch…It's to see how many times can Kenshi send Koros over his head till his arms give out" said Jin
"And how many has he done now?"
"About 159 and counting…he's got a calm and cheerful mind, but has a strong enduring body" said Jin
"Yeah, he does. But won't up to 100 and beyond open his wounds?" said Chiaia
"Don't worry, I gave him some of my herbal medicine and it's a fast healer, so his wounds might have a chance of closing near midnight" said Jin
"You really helping Kenshi…but why?" She asked
"When I look at Kenshi, I don't see him as a friend, I see him as a little brother to me"
"Well, you two have been like that for months…but what about his bro-" Jin instantly cupped her mouth.
"Did you not remember what I said back at the resort?" She then reflected on what he said about mentioning him in the Holy Land.
"I remember…but why didn't he came at the time when Kenshi nearly got killed?" said Chiaia
"He informed me yesterday that there were other assassins outside the Holy Land that was led by the rogue assassin. 10 of them….After he wiped them out, I informed him about what happened to Kenshi…he felt extremely disappointed in himself about not protecting him, he went back in the shadows and started training for what's to come in the future" said Jin
"The Future?"
He got near Chiaia and whispered in her ear "There is something here in the Holy Land that's causing a weird disturbance he's been having, both he and I don't know what's going on"
"You sure?"
"Yeah…By the way, have you seen your sister?" Jin asked
"I haven't…she would usually be here for breakfast but it looks like she won't be here and that's a bit strange" Chiaia replied
"I'll go find her and check if she is alright" before he could go, Chiaia grabbed him by the collar and said "If you tell her or anyone-"
"What happened between you and Kenshi is something for the two of you to figure out…Also, what's so embarrassing about doing that? You should be grateful for what he did for you yesterday, cause if he didn't, you wouldn't be standing here talking to me cause the way that spear was angled…it would've killed you if he hadn't stepped in" said Jin
Chiaia remembered how that spear went and the Battlemaster was right, if Kenshi didn't took the hit, Lashara and Mexiah would've been in deep depression to the fact that she could've died yesterday as she looked at Kenshi (who was still sending Koros over his head) and then to Jin who disappeared but left a note in her hand:
Tell Kenshi to stop at 225 and give him some medicine I had left with Empress Lashara.
-Jin
"Hey Kenshi…"
"Yeah?"
"How many Koros did you toss over your head?"
"About 233"
"THEN STOP YOU IDIOT!"
Jin was walking around the Holy Land as a few were looking a bit tense and afraid by what they saw yesterday.
The Battlemaster sighs cause he can't blame them…He killed assassins and the late Empress' killer in-front of lots of people including some of the staff.
"Think they'll be afraid of me now, wait till they really see me as I am"
"Uh…Jin?" He snapped out of his thoughts to see Gryino, Bwoole, Yeliss and Wreda in-front of him.
"What is it?"
"Kenshi…Is he gonna be okay?" said Wreda
"Yeah, I treated him yesterday, also gave him some medicine to help him recover his strength, so he should be in good shape soon…I just have to keep his physical condition intact, I am his Physiotherapist for now…" said Jin
"His Physical Therapist? But about the other job?" said Gryino
"What other job?"
The four girls looked at each other, then Bwoole said "Well…there have been rumors going around about you taking over Ms Mexiah's teaching job, is that true?"
"Taking over h-NO! I'm not taking her job, she's been doing a perfect job as your teacher…Also the way I fight is something you should never learn cause it's dangerous and it'll hurt your body" said Jin
"See! Whoever was spreading the rumor was wrong!" said Yeliss
"But why wasn't Ms Mexiah here today?" said Bwoole
"Wait, hold on…Mexiah wasn't teaching class today?" said Jin
"No and neither us or any of the students have seen her…do you know what's going on with Ms Mexiah?" said Wreda
"I think it might've been the assassin that wounded Kenshi…in case you don't know, that assassin was one of the people that has scarred Empress Lashara's past in the worst way possible…" said Jin
The four girls gasped at his statement as Yeliss asked "In what way?"
"I can't tell you…only the Empress would talk to you about it if she's comfortable but I don't think it's the right time to ask her now, she just got the news about it yesterday, so give her some time and space for now alright?" said Jin
The girls nodded as they see drops of water falling from the sky.
"You girls better get inside, cause the weather might get crazy today" said Jin
They nodded as the girls headed to the nearby building to avoid the rain, meanwhile the Battlemaster went on a search for Mexiah.
Jin searched other buildings even her dorm by stealth and doesn't see her there…The Battlemaster went to the Headmistress, asking information about the places where she could be and the Headmistress gave him some info on one of the places where she could be…
In one of the secret houses of the Holy Land that only two people know besides the Headmistress lies Mexiah, who was in her t-shirt and shorts with her hair down, drinking wine and was looking at the photo of her in her teens with Empress Eireen both in smiles hugging each other.
"Now I know why you ditched your own class…" Mexiah quickly grabbed a knife from under the table and thrown it at the door for the Battlemaster to catch it at the grip.
"It's extremely rude to throw a knife at a guest" said Jin
"What are you doing here?" said Mexiah
"What am I doing here?! Your little sister and your students are worried you and you're asking me that question?! I came looking for you to see if you're okay…also, there have been false rumors going on the Holy Land about me trying to take your job…" he replied, placing the knife on the other table.
"You can might as well take it for all I care…" He then see the tone in her voice and know that she's drunk. As she was about to take another swig of the bottle of wine, he snatched the bottle from her hand.
"What are you doing?!"
"You…need to clear your head, cause the only thing this concoction is doing is going to give you heart problems in the future" he clogged the bottle shut to prevent her from drinking again.
"You are such a bore Jin Kisaki, you do so much work in Holy Land…and even after what happened yesterday including risking getting kicked out, you still-"
"I still move forward, is that what you're gonna say?! Let me tell you this right now, I do this for the sake of everyone including Lashara…she had to bear the burden of her mother's death as she saw her die with her own eyes at the age of 3! Three Mexiah! And I had know it wasn't her fault at all and neither was it the late emperor's…and what happen yesterday happened and there was nothing we could do about it except to fight to protect her and protect them" said Jin
"Here's a question…what the heck were you riding on when you tackled that assassin through the window?" she asked
"*sighs* The Hoverboard…One of Kenshi's brothers created the thing…the reason I had it was because I was borrowing it from Kenshi and was going to return it to him after I was done with work yesterday till I had saw the smoke from afar and saw the rogue assassin coming near the class" he replied
"You have to be one of the most craziest guys I have ever seen to do what you did including sneaking into the Holy Land Database"
"So what…Yeah, I'm a reckless guy, a sneaky one at that…but at least I'm that type of person who will put his life on the line to protect the people I care about, just like what you did for your students before I had arrived"
"Please don't…"
The Battlemaster was seeing the MechaGuardian shedding tears as she looked like she was going to break down.
"*sighs* I'll go…but I want you to know this…Empress Eireen wouldn't want you to be sulking around and be sad all the time…She left her legacy and future to her daughter but is leaving her happiness for you to spread to others like she has in the past…just think about it…" The Battlemaster was about to leave, but the teacher stopped him by asking a question…
"Wait…Why are you soaking wet?" Mexiah asked, seeing his clothing a bit dark and his hair dripping from the rain.
"There was no time for me to get an umbrella back at dorm when I was looking for you…many of your students, The Headmistress, Chiaia, Lashara, Kenshi, even I was worried about you…and even though you can be lecherous as Queen Flora, you still are a good woman at heart" Jin replied
While Mexiah blushed at his statement, she came near him and try to take his Holy Land Uniform off.
"Whoa hey! What are you-"
"You need to take your clothes off now or you'll catch a cold" said Mexiah
"I'll take them off when I get back to the dorm!"
"No you're not, you're taking them off right no-aah!" She then tripped by the wet spots on the floor and fell on top of him. The Battlemaster felt a little pain in the back of his head and then for a second he looked like he saw Doll at first but saw Mexiah as she looked at him worried.
(I don't own any music)
I know we don't belong
Everyone says it's wrong
We come from different ways
So I tried to erase everything that I felt
That I felt
For some reason he felt his heart beating fast as he had before when he first met Doll.
"Jin, are you okay?" said Mexiah
"Uh…Yeah I'm fine, nothing broken, just something on my mind that's all…" said Jin
"Really? Am I the one on your mind?" said Mexiah
"Now you're talking crazy, but it looks like you're back to the Mexiah I know. So can you please get off m-
Then you kiss me and suddenly I don't care any more
Something in me tells me you're the one I'm looking for
Then you kiss me and suddenly I don't care any more
Something in me tells me you're the one I'm looking for
From the kiss
From the kiss
Mexiah stopped him by kissing him, but from the other times she did it to him, she kissed him with real passion and with her feelings in this one. The Battlemaster was feeling surprised and shocked by it, he can even feel their tongues intertwined. The Battlemaster stopped her as he got on top of her and pinned her shoulders down as he remembered when he saw her as Doll but sees Mexiah and he is feeling so confused as his heart is pounding rapidly.
My heart is getting loud
I'm trying to keep it down
I wish the world could hear
But I can't help but fear that they'll take you away
You away
Jin got off her as he felt uneasy for some reason as Mexiah felt guilty as she looked down for making such actions she took. The Battlemaster opened the door as he was about to leave, but he couldn't…It never felt right for him leaving her like that…for months he was looking at Mexiah as Doll but for some reason he see something very different from her than the way he has seen in the past. He then shut the door and locked it to the teacher looking up in surprise.
"Jin, is something wr-"
Then you kiss me and suddenly I don't care any more
Something in me tells me you're the one I'm looking for
Then you kiss me and suddenly I don't care any more
Something in me tells me you're the one I'm looking for
From the kiss
From the kiss
The Battlemaster silenced her as he then kissed her in full passion. Mexiah was shocked as he was actually taking the initiative this time, she felt extremely happy as she was really taking the passionate kiss, wrapping her arms around him. Jin picked her up by grabbing her buttocks as she wrapped her legs around his waist and was making out all the way to her bedroom.
(Lemon Warning!)
Palm to palm
Let lips do what hands do
They pray
Is it a sin
To do what we want to?
Don't care where we've been
Give me my sin again
The two were really getting physical in between the sheets. Jin was drilling deeper into her lustrous flower as Mexiah was moaning loudly, feeling pleasure that she has never felt before in her life that was unimaginable. She dug her fingers on the Battlemaster's strong muscular back as he was feeling the pain from it but kept going on as he was going faster and rougher.
Then you kiss me and suddenly I don't care any more
Something in me tells me you're the one I'm looking for
Then you kiss me and suddenly I don't care any more
Something in me tells me you're the one I'm looking for
From the kiss
From the kiss
Mexiah locked her legs around Jin's waist tightly and pulled him into another passionate kiss. As Jin broke apart he was seeing Mexiah's eyes, but wasn't seeing her green eyes but pink eyes on her pupils, but some reason he didn't care anymore and went back to kissing her and having sex to the point of both of their climax.
(Lemon End)
(Music End in Fade)
It was 4 PM at the Holy Land Academy as the rain stopped and the Student Council President wasn't happy due to the fact that the Battlemaster didn't show up on time and hasn't shown his face today.
"Why haven't you show up today Jin? Where are you?" Lithia mumbled in her books
Back at the secret house of the Holy Land, Mexiah was waking up feeling so satisfied by what the Battlemaster did to her but doesn't see him next to her neither see his clothes at all. The teacher looked at the table to see a rose and a note…
What just happened stays between the two of us…I don't want anyone to know about what we just did cause it will ruin both of our reputations and will spread chaos on campus including costing me my job…and I may not be a Sacred Mechamaster, but I'm still a person capable of putting my life to protect you and everyone else. Keep being a great teacher to your students to be an inspiration to others like Empress Eireen has been for you…
-Jin
P.S. Even though it felt great, you need to be careful with those nails, cause now I have to put medicine on my back.
"Hmm…that boy…" she moaned as she went back to sleep.
(Don't own any music)
The Battlemaster was sitting below the waterfall, cleaning his body and healing his back (With the power from the MBA) from the nail digging Mexiah did. Speaking of the MechaGuardian, the Battlemaster was trying to clear his head to get her off of his mind but the memories of her and Doll are making it complicated.
"Damn it…"
The Battlemaster ran around the Holy Land by using the forest to make sure no one sees him.
In a battle, you only brought your shield
I picked the nearest blade I found
To meet you in the field
I'm sure that I told my fair share of lies
If not, I bent the truth
But good fortune never was shining on me
The way it shone on you
Something is really troubling the Battlemaster and the problem was with Doll and Mexiah, he knows what they both are, but he is starting to doubt that she will bring trouble to the Holy Land.
"I need to clear my head…cause if what happened at the resort was like my dreams, then I need to be prepared for what's going to come" Satoshi thought
Shock me, I needed a surprise
Shock me, I needed a surprise
Jin was then training outside of the range of the Holy Land using the BFP to practice his advanced two sword training to keep his eyes on his mission as from afar Princess Aura's attendants were in awe and impressed by his skills.
In a dream, a great calamity
To stone my heart and firm resolve
And render nerves to steel
The polestar wheeled about my head
Until such time it grew
A deep well of despair I found
The day my dreams came true
The next day at the Holy Land on a sunny day, Mexiah was back to teaching her class, only telling them about Jin giving her advice that got her back on teaching them, while one of her students was pointing at Jin (Wearing Tanktop and Black Pants), who was carrying 6 barrels (2 barrels on his back) and was jogging like it's easy. Some of the girls were blushing at his strength (Mostly his well-tone muscular body) even Mexiah.
"Come on, don't fall behind kid" said Jin
Shock me, I needed a surprise
Shock me, I needed a surprise
Shock me
"Got it" Following him was Kenshi who is carrying two barrels and is jogging with the Battlemaster. The students and staff were in smiles and was cheering for Kenshi's quick recovery.
Mexiah was incredibly impressed by how fast Jin's medicine worked on Kenshi, it almost reminded her of someone she knew in her past.
(Bridge)
It was another night in the form of a Full Moon in the Holy Land, but it was a different one as the attendants of the Shurifon Princess secretly went to the Battle Arena. As they kept themselves hidden in the seated area, they see the Battlemaster standing below the pillars blindfolded (with earphones on).
The Battlemaster concentrating on where to move and where to jump; he focused on his breathing and the flow of the air moving, his shoes glowed lightly as his first step went to a big jump to sides of the pillar…one by one, he jumped from one pillar to another and increase his speed to get even faster that even a Sacred Mechanoid can't see him.
"Incredible, that boy has something in him…" said Shurifon Attendant #2
"Yes, but the question remains that is suspicious. As told by Princess Aura, he isn't a Sacred Mechamaster, but has the capability of defeating one…how is that possible?" Said Shurifon Attendant # 1
"Could you two explain why you are here?" The attendants turned their heads slowly to see their mistress behind them.
"P-Princess Aura!"
The Dark Elf Princess then looked at who was jumping from pillar to pillar and was surprised that she would find Princess Maria's Attendant here but to use the Colosseum as a training ground is a game changer.
Shock me, I needed a surprise
Shock me, I needed a surprise
Shock me
Jin felt like his speed right now wasn't getting anywhere and increased his speed in his shoes as the glow got a little brighter. As of the result, he gotten a lot more faster than he ever has been before, it could infact give a few Sacred Mechamasters a run for their money. He jumped over one of the pillars, did a perfect 1080 corkscrew flip then went back to zip-jumping from pillar to pillar at an incredible rate. The Battlemaster was starting to feel the fatigue and ended his training by jumping to the stands.
(Music Ends)
The Battlemaster was breathing heavily as he grabbed his flask and was drinking cold water but was coughing as he drank it too fast.
He took his earphones off and said "I still got a lot of training to do"
He then took off his blindfold to see the Shurifon Princess standing in-front of him staring at him along with her attendants as he said "Shit…"
At the dorm of the Shurifon Princess, the Battlemaster made a choice to tell her about what is currently going down in the Holy Land.
"Why didn't you tell me this sooner?" said Aura
"Do you want students and staff to freak out?! They already seen what I can do, if you tell anyone what's going on now, they'll be in paranoia and you don't wanna know what will happen" said Jin
"So what am I supposed to do?" said Aura
"Be on the watch out for anything suspicious but don't be too conspicuous or you'll blow it" said Jin
"Who else knows about this?" She asked
"Wahan, Princess Maria and Kenshi"
"Kenshi is involved?!" The Battlemaster raised his hand before she can speak anything.
"His skills in hand to hand combat are equal to mine. And I see something great in him, so I had no other choice…"
"But he is injured!"
"It won't be along till he's back at 100 percent, how I know is that my medicine works incredibly fast" said Jin
"But what about Lithia and the others?" She asked
"I can't get them involved, not even Yukine. After what happened days ago, they might be still shaken up after that assassin attack…I can't risk them getting hurt again" said Jin
"I understand…But I need to know something?"
"What's on your mind?"
"Are you a Sacred Mechamaster?" Aura asked
"No…if anything, I'm like a Battlemaster" he replied
"This isn't a joke…"
"And who said that I was joking?"
"*sighs* Well, do you know something else?"
"About what?"
"The Black Sacred Mechamaster…"
It was another sunny day at the academy till the Battlemaster heard an announcement from the Student Council President…
"A Tournament?"
"Yes, the Student council has made a decision to start a sports athletic competition to test sacred mechamasters from different countries and test their own abilities" said Lithia
"Whose idea was this?" he asked
"The idea came from Sir Dagmyer, he thought that this would help get many people out of their boredom and to shake off what happened days ago" said Lithia
The Battlemaster thought the sports competition was a good idea, but when the idea came from Babalun's son, he had a very bad feeling about it.
"Is something wrong with the idea?" she asked
"No, it's just…after everything that's happened the last few weeks, the attack at the resort, one of King Sarix's killers showed up and then here a few days ago with Empress Eireen's killer-"
"Jin…" The Student Council President hugged him to help him calm his worries.
"Right now, I'm just worried about everyone's well being in the Holy Land including yours. I don't want anyone to get hurt the way Kenshi or Empress Lashara has" said Jin
"I get what you're saying Jin, and I'm glad that you care about every single one of us, but right now this is the sports athletic competition we're talking about. Someone might get hurt sometimes, some may fall from fatigue, but it's a healthy friendly competition between others" said Lithia
"I hope so"
"You worry too much Jin. How about you do something that can ease your mind…"
The Battlemaster was thinking about it and found a perfect idea.
The next day, everyone was preparing everything for the event, while a few others were participating in the tournament as a few were able to make it in the competition.
Meanwhile, as many members of the academy are setting up decorations and also pulled down the pillars to set up the giant monitors, both Jin and Kenshi was cleaning the Sacred Mechalord, one of the most treasured possessions of the Church.
"So this thing right here is the only one in existence right now?" said Jin
"Yup, this is the only full intact Sacred Mechalord that has been excavated from a prehistoric civilization, so The Church is like 'super protective' over it for obvious reasons" said Wahanly
"No shit…" Jin mumbled to himself
"Empress Lashara was only allowed to use it during her coronation cause Shtrayu originally owned the excavation site known as the Holy Land" said Wahanly
The Battlemaster was explained about the excavation site and the Mechalord by Naua, but didn't know that Shtrayu owned the site.
"In Shtrayu, The Sacred Mechalord is known as a symbol of power" said Chiaia
"Only a symbol of power?" said Kenshi
The Battlemaster sees the Mechalord and then reminisce his dream he had of it attacking in the Colosseum.
"Hey Jin, are you okay?" Chiaia asked
"Hmm? Oh yeah, I'm alright…just been thinking a lot, but I was thinking of about how the after-event was gonna work" Jin replied
"Wait, what after-event?" said Yukine
"Can't tell ya, wouldn't be a secret now would it? Kenshi, I need you, Wahan and Princess Aura to come with me…" said Jin
"Hold on, why do you need me and Princess Aura for?" said Wahan
"If you follow me and Kenshi, you will find out…" Jin replied, walking to the outside.
Kenshi followed his disguised brother as did Aura and Wahan, while Yukine and Chiaia looked at each other and then back at the others leaving.
Meanwhile in the Student Council Office, Mexiah was trying to get a coach admission to grant a day ownership for Kenshi, but was denied.
"Huh? Why not?!" said Mexiah
"Because of reasons Ms Mexiah…one of them involves you in the last time the Wild Beast was in your hands…"
The MechaGuardian sighed at her past sin of using Kenshi to massage nearly half of the students on campus.
"The other reason is…"
"Wait What?! You mean-"
"Yes, I need you and Princess Aura's help for our performance in the after-event of the sports competition" said Jin, interrupting Wahanly.
"*sighs* What do you want me to do?" Aura asked
"You do the Bass, while Wahanly…you can do the drums…"
"How can we learn how to play instruments in a short amount of time?!" Said Wahanly
"Cause I'll teach you…Kenshi, you try help Princess Aura on how to play the bass" said Jin
"Alright" Kenshi replied
"W-Wait, Kenshi is going to teach me?!" said Aura, while blushing
"Yeah, you don't find Kenshi's company to be troubling do you?" said Jin
"N-No, it's just t-"
"Calm down, don't be so nervous. When you perform with us, just imagine there are thousands of Koros in the stands that are singing along and you'll deal with it as you get into the rhythm" said Jin
The Dark Elf princess sweatdropped and said "Okay…"
"Just to make sure that everything goes smooth, I'm gonna have Kenshi stay with you and your attendants till the day of the sports competition" said Jin
"Wha-"
"Ssssssshhhhh" he looked around and see no one else in sight and said "Look, I want this to be the best memory this academy has ever had, and I don't want anyone especially Mexiah to mess it up. That's why I want Kenshi to stay with you till the day the event starts, got it?"
She nodded and said "I understand"
"Okay…now Wahan, let's get started on your drum lesson"
The four had split up into two groups, Kenshi was giving the Dark Elf Princess a lesson on the notes and the feeling of the bass. Meanwhile at Wahan's workshop, the Battlemaster was giving MechaMechanic a lesson about Rhythm and beat by showing her how to play and giving her a chance while muting the outside so no one can hear.
Jin decided to inform Chiaia about Kenshi staying with him for a couple of days and to make sure he doesn't end up in her sister's hands. While Chiaia agrees with him, she might think the Empress will have second thoughts if Kenshi ends up in Maria's dorm, but he wants her to tell Lashara that only him and Kenshi are going out camping in the forest, so there are no suspicions of that thought crossing the Empress' mind.
The next day, Jin got Wahanly quickly down on the drumming in the short amount of time as he got her to rehearse her drumming for a song he chose. Meanwhile at Aura's dorm, both Kenshi and the Dark Elf Princess were rehearsing Jin's song as a few Koros were moving their heads in rhythm and Aura's attendants were in awe of how quick Kenshi got their mistress finished on the bass.
The Battlemaster was headed to the Headmistress' office to ask her for the fireworks, but he had an unexpected appearance by an certain someone…
"Mr. Kisaki…" he turned around to see the enemy's son behind him.
"Is there something you needed Mr Dagmyer? I'm kinda busy with something…"
"I heard from Chiaia about you taking down the assassin that murdered the very late empress" said Dagmyer
"She told you?" said Jin
"Yes, I had only seen Empress Eireen only 6 times when I was young, she was a very kind woman when I first met her" said Dagmyer
Even though he was the enemy along with his father, he sensed his honesty and sympathy for Lashara's mother.
"But anyways, I have a proposition for you to join if you like to…"
"Uh…Sorry, I'm gonna have to decline, there are a lot of things I have to do, so I'm completely booked"
"I understand, but if you change your mind, you know where to find me" Dagmyer left to the inside of the academy with Emera.
The Battlemaster already knew that the person that took the documents from Wahan's workshop was Dagmyer's left hand Woman.
Jin tried to head to the office until…
"Jin Kisaki!"
"Why am I not surprised?" He recognized that the voice was Mexiah's as she came near him…
"What is it now? I'm very busy today"
"Where's Kenshi?"
"He's safe, he is getting himself ready for tomorrow"
"And why hasn't anyone seen h-"
"Cause he wanted to focus on something important just like what I'm trying to focus on right now. This is something that'll leave a good memory in the minds of the students" said Jin
"Yes, but Kenshi is my stu-"
"Remember that as a teacher, you should focus on more than just one student. Stop worrying about Kenshi cause he is in perfect hands…focus on your students who needs your attention" he said as he walks away
Mexiah was beginning to get angry and was about to give him a piece of her mind until…
"W-Wha-"
The Battlemaster turned to see her tripped and was falling near the sparring field, seeing her head about to hit the fixed ground.
In the mind of the MechaGuardian, all she could do is close her eyes and wait for the unbearable pain to come, but the only pain she is feeling right now is the little bruise on her right foot. She opened her eyes to see the Battlemaster holding her over the fixed ground of the sparring field.
"You really know how to make a woman safe don't yo-" she stopped as she touched the back of his head to see blood on her hand as her eyes widened in shock.
"JIN!"
In the medical bay, Mexiah was sitting near the Battlemaster (having bandages wrapped around the top of his head) along with Princess Maria, Yukine, Lithia and Kenshi.
"They gave me the result…they said that it's an concussion, plus they have to restitch the cut from the back of his head to prevent and stop the bleeding" said Lithia
"It's all my fault…" they look at the teacher as she continued "That hit to the ground was meant for me, if I hadn't tried to go after hi-"
"What had happen happened and if he didn't took that hit for you, both of your roles would've been in reverse and you could've suffered worse" said Maria
"Besides, a few students saw what happened and they viewed it as an accident. But now that Jin has suffered an injury, we would have no choice but to cancel the after-event" said Lithia
"The after-event? Is that why-"
"Over my dead body…" They turned to the awakened Battlemaster as he opened his eyes.
"There is no way in hell am I gonna let all that hard work go to waste…the after-event is going to happen one way or the other" said Jin
"But look at your condition!" said Lithia
"Yukine, take Kenshi with you back to our dorm. There is some medicine in the basement that can deal with this" said Maria
"Princess Maria!"
"If he says that it's going to happen, then I'm going to believe him and back up his word" said Maria
"*groans* I'm forgetting who I'm talking to…" said Lithia, pinching her forehead.
It was the day of the sports festival and the Battlemaster was still laying in the Medical bay. The Empress came to visit him, but to her surprise, she sees Jin's eye pupils bigger than ever and tried to touch him.
"No Stop!" But the Council President's assistant was there at the right time to stop her.
"What's going on with Jin's eyes?" Said Lashara
"It's his medicine that Kenshi gave him from the basement of his dorm, he says that it has after effects that includes large pupils and sleeping with his eyes open" said Lapis
"Sleeping with his eyes open? We find this side effect oddly disturbing" said Lashara, looking deep in his eyes.
As the Empress got closer, the Battlemaster's eyes quickly turned at her, making her scream and making Lapis yelp.
The Battlemaster awoke as he closed his eyes for a moment and said "What's with the screaming? You two are gonna bust someone's ear drum doing stuff like that"
"You startled us! How were we going to react?!" Said Lashara
"I apologize for scaring you Empress, but you can go back to what you were doing. I'll get out of bed and join you girls later" said Jin, rubbing his forehead
"*sighs* We wish you the fastest recovery possible" said Lashara, kissing his cheek before leaving.
The sports festival has really gotten under way. Chiaia was going toe to toe with other mechamasters in Moving Armor and was winning. Princess Aura was dominating others in hand to hand combat with her beating the other due to a suplex. Wreda, Bwoole, Gryino and Yeliss were going against each other in a swimming competition. Princess Maria was putting people in awe with her graceful dancing in a kimono as Yukine and the recovering Jin was watching on.
As the long awaited long distance race was getting going to get started, the empress was facing major money trouble as everyone was placing their bets on Kenshi due to him being the longest runner on campus besides his disguised brother. She had to do something, so she sends Angela to make sure that Kenshi doesn't win the race.
Kenshi received a letter containing conditions that he must do a handicap for the race.
The Battlemaster was standing by in the Colosseum looking at some of the girls wearing one piece red swimsuits.
"Is there something wrong?" Jin turns around and sees Lithia wearing the red swimsuit.
"Why are you and some of the girls dressed like swimsuit models?"
"Swimsuit models?"
"Meaning you are wearing such a attractive outfit during a sports event" said Jin
She blushes and said "W-Well, I don't know if that was a compliment or a way to say that I'm-"
"Oh no…"
She then sees Jin looking pale as he was holding his stomach and feeling a lot pain.
"Uh…Jin, are you okay?" said Lithia
"Don't…think so. Of all the time I had to forget one more side effect on a medicine, it had to be this one!" said Jin, groaning
"Wait, what side effect are you talking about?"
"Can't hold-DAMN IT!" The Battlemaster took off in a burst of speed, heading to the royal dorm.
Lithia and some of the girls are surprised at how fast Jin was going. A few wanted to know why wasn't he in the event, but Lithia keeping it quiet for the surprise for the after-event.
The Long Distance relay race has begun and everyone has took off in the competition, everyone but Kenshi who was counting for some weird reason.
"Excuse me Wild Beast, but what exactly are you doing? You're in the race" said Lithia
"But the rules stated that I have to count to ten thousand before I can start to run"
The student council president growled and said "The rules said no such thing! Now start running!"
"Okay, I'm going" Kenshi started to move, but has a heavyweight metal chained to his bottom, making him run very slowly.
"Why do have that attached to you?!" Lithia yelled
"Because I should have a handicap-"
"How does that make sense?! Are you an idiot on top of being a Wild Beast?! Take it off immediately-you know what? Can someone sever this chain please?!" said Lithia
A violet Mechanoid with a sword broke the chain making Kenshi move freely.
"Thank you very much" said Kenshi, bowing.
"Save the thanking for later, now get a move on!" said Lithia
Kenshi meowed and ran quick into the race as the rest of the chain fell off his bottom.
Meanwhile back at Maria's Royal dorm, the Battlemaster got out the bathroom and felt lighter because of his medicine that he took.
"Ugh…I feel like I lost 7 pounds…" said Jin
The Battlemaster looked at the door to the basement, he felt like need to do something more downstairs for what's to come in the future.
Back in the long distance race, Kenshi was catching up in the race (despite being tricked by Angela who was being used by Lashara to make Kenshi lose the race), many people decided to call forfeit, but a few were able to stay in the race.
Nearly half an hour has passed and almost all has stopped running (including Dagmyer) except for Kenshi and Princess Aura who has the largest stamina on campus. The dark elf princess decided to get serious in the race as did Kenshi. Over 3 times that the two have run the course, that the Student Council President decides to make the last checkpoint the finish line.
Kenshi then remembered Angela trying to get him off course making him think of what's to come if he wins. Kenshi then decides back off of Aura to make sure his full potential doesn't show until…
"Kenshi!" Chiaia comes to his side (via Flying one-wheel biker)
"Chiaia?"
"If you back off, I'll take away every crystal you're hiding, so pick up the pace!" said Chiaia
Kenshi froze in fear after hearing that.
"Don't stop like an idiot, get out there and run!" said Chiaia
"I am sorry!" Kenshi said while running back into the race.
"And you better win this! He is such an handful…" she heard giggling coming from behind by Yeliss and Bwoole.
"You guys are like brother and sister" said Yukine as Chiaia sighed.
Aura looked to her left and see Kenshi coming back up but then sees him taking off in-front of her, leaving the dark elf princess in the dust. Aura decided to stop at Checkpoint 9 and retire there. With no one else in his way, Kenshi ran to the final checkpoint and crossed the finish line but there was one problem…He didn't stopped running.
The Battlemaster got out of the basement as he was finished with what he was doing. He then heard the phone ringing and answered "Hello?"
"Jin?! Where have you been?!" He hears Maria on the phone.
"That last side effect of the medicine really got me, and I nearly made it to t-"
"Never mind that, can you go and get Kenshi please? He won the race but for some reason he won't stop running" said Maria
"Oh boy…at which checkpoint did he passed now?" Jin asked
"He just passed the sixth checkpoint"
"Got it"
"You should know that Wah-" He hung up before she could explain anything else and quickly left the house.
Meanwhile back at the running field, Wahan, Chiaia, Yukine and Aura were in the Mechaworker trying to stop Kenshi to tell him he already won but to no avail.
"This is the perfect time to test this sucker out!" Wahan has her cannon ready and aimed at Kenshi.
"No! You can't!" said Aura
"Yes, please don't-"
"Too late!" Wahan fired the cannon at Kenshi multiple times, but with advanced evasive training he dodged the cannonballs easily.
They were surprised at how quick Kenshi was (especially Wahanly since she now knows her cannonballs are too slow for him to hit).
Kenshi turned around as they see his face hidden in shadow coming straight at them as they realized he is indeed in berserker mode.
"Oh boy…" said Wahanly
Just as Kenshi was about to strike the Mechaworker, he was pulled by the collar and thrown back by his disguised brother.
"Jin!"
"Thank goodness that you're h-" Before Wahan could finish her sentence, she and everyone on the machine could feel the dark aura coming from the Battlemaster.
"What…did I say about using the machine on the kid?" said Jin
"Um…don't use it to kill him?" said Wahanly
"Wow…you are finally learning are y-" he was interrupted by a kick that was coming to his face but caught Kenshi's foot to prevent it from happening.
He turned around to see Kenshi in Berserker mode again, then looked at Chiaia and said "Did you threaten him by taking his crystals?"
"Uh…"
"By that reply, that means yes" Jin then looked at the Berserked Kenshi as he avoid his attacks and said "Kenshi, you've won the race. And because of that, Chiaia won't have to take your crystals anymore"
Kenshi then snapped back to his normal self to see his brother and the girls on the Mechaworker behind him and said "What happened?"
"I'll explain later but right now…we got a gig to do"said Jin, taking the bandages off.
Back in the colosseum, Lithia was giving out awards (Giving Kenshi his trophy first) and then thanked the entire academy for participating and for volunteering at the sports festival.
(I don't own any music whatsoever)
Everyone then heard a sound and it was a sound of a guitar as Kenshi appeared behind the curtain where the Mechalord is. The academy was screaming and cheering for the performance the young boy was about to put on.
Kenshi: Well fortune favor's not the young
Spoken word's and song's unsung, right?
I never learned from my mistakes
I guess I don't have what it takes, right?
"So…this is what the 'After-Event' is huh?" said Mexiah
"Jin wanted to do this…to leave a good memory for the Holy Land" said Lithia
"But we don't see him on there" said Lashara
Kenshi & ?: I wish that I was strong, that I could walk away
All this time I've lost, I feel the cost repaid
"Wait, I remember that other voice…could that actually be…" before Yeliss can say anything…
Jin: So save today, the secret's that you prayed for
And wait, cause we deserve it so much more
So save, the secret's that your prayed for, awake
I'll see you on the other side
The girls were screaming as the rest of the crowd was cheering when Jin came along on stage (With the Electric Guitar).
"It's Jin!" said Gryino
As Kenshi was seeing Jin singing, they set their plan in motion.
"You still up for this?" said Kenshi
"You know it" Jin replied
"Wait a minute, what are they-"
"We have one more surprise for ya" said Jin
He pressed the button where his feet was at, lifting and easing the curtain back, revealing Princess Aura on Bass and Wahanly on Drums to the crowd's surprise.
Jin: A tortured soul have I become
It keep's me safe and leaves me numb, right?
'Cause in this dream I'm wide awake
The one I love I did forsake, right?
Chiaia then remembered the time when Jin asked Wahan and Aura to come with him and Kenshi.
"So that's what Jin was up to; he needed a band to get this after-event underway"
"For him to use Aura and Wahan was quite a bold move that he took, but in the end accomplished his goal in the after-event" said Maria, seeing Aura and Wahanly performing perfectly for Jin and Kenshi.
Jin & Kenshi: I wish that I was wrong, that you'll come home again
All this time I've lost, I'll never find again
Lan was still wondering how did Jin know about her father and why.
Meanwhile Jin was getting a bit dizzy because of the medicine, but he looked below to see a opened cold bottled water near his right side and had a big idea.
Jin & Kenshi: So save today, the secret's that you prayed for
And wait, cause we deserve it so much more
So save, the secret's that you prayed for, awake
I'll see you on the other side
The Battlemaster kicked the bottled water in the air, for the liquid to land on his head making his hair wet.
"What is Jin doing?!" Said Lithia
"It seems like he is about to pull a big one on us" said Lashara
"No…what he's doing is completely…unexpected" said Maria
(Bridge)
The Battlemaster was headbanging to the rhythm of the song as the girls in the crowd were screaming and the crowd was getting loud.
"Whoa!" They are seeing Jin getting crazy whipping his hair while it's wet, making a few girls in the crowd catch a nosebleed.
Jin (High Tone) & Kenshi (in Normal Tone): Say you can help me now! (4X)
The MechaGuardian was getting strongly aroused by another side she's never seen in Jin.
The three (Lithia, Lashara and Maria) aside Chiaia was looking at the teacher and knew that there was another problem that was going to be in the way between them and the Battlemaster.
Kenshi: So save today, the secret's that you prayed for
And wait…
Jin & Kenshi: Cause we deserve it so much more
So save, the secret's that you prayed for, awake
I'll see you on the other side
Aura, Kenshi and Jin jumped to trigger the fireworks that caught the attention of everyone as they looked in awe.
Jin & Kenshi: So save today, the secret's that you prayed for
And wait, cause we deserve it so much more
So save, the secret's that you prayed for, awake
I'll see you on the other side
(Music End)
The crowd was going nuts and was applauding at the performance that the four of them did. They bowed and waved as they left the stage.
"Wow, that was kinda stressful" said Aura
"You're telling me…I was trying hard not to get a nosebleed on stage due to Jin whipping his hair like a bonafide rockstar" said Wahanly
"But it was kinda fun performing in-front of everyone cause they enjoyed it, what about you Big Br-" Kenshi turned to see his brother on his knees as the three checked on him.
"I'll be alright…Just need some rest and I'll be good" said Jin
"For you to just perform in-front of everyone after suffering a concussion yesterday-" The Battlemaster raised his hand in silence.
"I know it was reckless, but I held up my word and that's where it counts. Ya think you can take me back to the dorm Kenshi?" said Jin
"Yeah I got it" said Kenshi, picking him up.
"Tell Princess Maria that I'm back at the dorm resting would ya?" Jin asking the two girls, they nodded as Kenshi took Jin to Maria's Royal Dorm.
"He's a stubborn one" said Aura
"But that's what I like about him in his own way" said Wahanly
While on the way to the Dorm, Kenshi then pops the question…
"Brother…"
"Hm?"
"Why didn't you heal yourself before the after-event?" Kenshi asked
"It's because I didn't want anyone to see what I could do. Let me explain…If I had done so, they would've gotten very suspicious about it and would have thought that I was a MechaGuardian like Mexiah, thus pushing to the point of me being a Sacred Mechamaster, which I'm not and it'll just be more than a pile of questions that I can't handle. So my option was to take the pain and medicine, suck it up all the way to the end where I can actually heal myself back at the dorms and rest" said Jin
"That's kinda of a smart move, but the question still remains…when are you going to show everyone the real you? Cause this undercover life is now getting too complicated for you" said Kenshi
"I know…I will show myself to everyone soon, but I'm waiting for the right time to tell them. When they see me the way I actually am, everything changes for the both of us" said Jin
"I know…" Kenshi said, looking down
"Just…give me some time when I make that choice alright?" said Jin
"I got ya" said Kenshi
Later that night, Kenshi left the Shtrayu Dorm to try to dig up some crystals from the Swan but comes across the girl in disguise (Emera) that stole from Wahan's Workshop. She attacked him with a knife but Kenshi defended himself with a hammer and a big iron nail, he was able to see through her moves as he sees her combat skills can equal to Chiaia. While the knife broke due to Kenshi's defense with the hammer, she tackled him and apologized as the ground revealed a deathly pit of sharp blades. Kenshi quickly sees a rope coming down as he caught it, escaping with the girl unharmed. He wanted to check if she was okay, but she walked away without a thank you; The young boy turned around as he saw the woman in the weird costume again…
A call was made late night at Maria's Dorm, and the one who answered it was the Battlemaster…
"Hello?"
"Brother, it's me"
"Kenshi, what are you doing calling the dorm at a time like this? It's late night" Jin said, quietly
"I know, but do you remember the Decoy that got away?" he asked
"What about her?"
"I saw her again…and she said that a storm is coming but I don't know what she meant by that" said Kenshi
"A Storm?"
"Yeah"
The Battlemaster was thinking what it meant but the way Kenshi said it, it could mean two things: The Weather or Danger is coming in their way…
Meanwhile, somewhere in the Holy Land, Dagmyer and the bandits began to make their move by taking out a few members of the Holy Land including guards from the inside and taking the places where the cocoons are, avoiding a few guard posts where a few Shurifon guards are.
It was the day after the sports competition and students were up and about outside. The Battlemaster was taking a walk as a few students waved and greeted him, he waved back at them but something was really bothering him. After what he heard on the phone, he got a feeling something bad was gonna happen.
Then something caught his eye as did many students: a large heavily armed ship that is hovering over the Holy Land. As it was coming close, the MBA from the Battlemaster's left wrist reacted as he covered it quickly before anyone notices.
"Why the Hell would the MBA-" He then felt a presence…a presence that he felt familiar as a bad vibe, then knew one thing…the enemy was here.
The Battlemaster then yelled out loud "EVERYBODY RUN!"
An explosion erupted as for that direction came from one of the guard posts that was destroyed.
The Battlemaster gritted his teeth in anger as he sees the Male Sacred Mechamasters destroying the guard posts one by one.
The Battlemaster's MBA reacted again as he senses Princess Maria in danger and took off in a burst of speed.
Back at in Maria's Royal Dorm, the princess sees trouble brewing from the window and try to call her mother but all the phone wires in the dorm were cut.
"Yukine, someone has cut all the phone lines from the house!" said Maria
There was no reply coming in the house.
"Yukine? Anyone?!"
"Hello Princess Maria…" A maid came in with a short sword that frightened the princess as she moved back.
"Who are you? I don't even remember seeing you here…"
"Oh…But I remember seeing you Princess Maria, you were just so cute back then…now you're growing just like your mother…" said The Maid
"What did you do to Yukine?!" said Maria
The maid motioned the other with a short sword to come in with Yukine who has a cut on her right shoulder that's bleeding and a hit mark on her left cheek.
"Yukine!" The princess try to come near her bodyguard but the 'maid' slapped her to the floor as she chuckled evilly.
"What do you want with me and Yukine?!" said Maria
"We came here for you Princess…we're here to finish what we've started"
"Finish what you-but we haven-" she then remembered something that she didn't want to remember as another one of her nightmares has appeared in-front of her.
"You…you two are-"
"Yes…Now that you know who we are, We're gonna send you on a first-class trip where your daddy is…" The princess was tearing up but was angry that two of her father's killers were there and she didn't notice the whole time when she came back home from the sports competition.
"But before that…" The 'maid' then motioned her partner to kill Yukine in-front the princess.
"No…Leave Yukine out of this! I'm the one you want!" Said Maria
"Princess…" Yukine was feeling weak from losing blood in her right shoulder and couldn't try to escape what seemed like the inevitable.
"No…No Yukine…" The Princess remembered what the pain felt liked when she lost her father and didn't want to lose her closest friend.
She then screamed from the top of her lungs "SATOSHI!"
The windows shattered and in what it seemed like an unimaginable speed of pace, the 'maid' that held Yukine hostage was thrown across the room, saving Yukine from a terrible fate. There stood in-front of the bodyguard of the princess was the Battlemaster (whose eyes were hidden in shadow).
"You're a fast one I give you that, but you made a mis-" before she could finish, she was stabbed in the heart by the Battlemaster whose right arm was in a form of a blade which shocked both Maria and Yukine.
"The only mistake I made was leaving the house without Maria and Yukine by my side. Your mistake…was 10 years ago and now…" He touched the assassin's head with his left arm, which triggered his MBA, showing him the memories of the 'maid' which then made the Battlemaster really mad.
Maria yelled "Watch out!" as the other 'maid was coming at him with the short sword. Jin disappeared and was instantly behind her and snapped her neck, instantly killing the assassin.
While the 'maid' was on the floor dying, she was shocked at how quick the Battlemaster handled both her and her dead partner.
"Who *coughs*…what are you?" the 'maid' said
He looked at the dying assassin with his real eyes and said to her as she dies "I'm a Sacred Battlemaster…"
"A Battlemaster?" Jin turned to Yukine who was still in shock of seeing what the disguised Battlemaster was all along.
He came near Yukine but she try to move away as the pain on her right shoulder was still irritating.
"Don't move…" said Jin, as he used his MBA to heal her shoulder and her left cheek.
Yukine is surprised by his healing as if the pain never happened happened at all but a little tear on her shirt.
The Battlemaster came near the princess, hugged her and said "I'm so sorry for leaving you and Yukine here. I knew I shouldn't have left the hou-"
Maria pressed her finger on his lips and said "I'm just glad you got back here in time"
"Wait…" Yukine then realized something as the princess screamed the Battlemaster real name…
"Princess, you said…Satoshi before Jin came here…and if you're here then that means-"
"This is not time Yukine, we're in the middle of an invasion. I'll explain everything later, but right now I need you to focus…Queen Flora is on her way and I need you to take Maria to her; there's a Mechaworker that I got from Wahan's Workshop, take it and go" The Battlemaster interrupted
"What about you?" said Maria
He then went outside (via the front door) as the two followed and see the direction of the big floating ship.
"I got some scores to settle, but right now I need to evacuate the students from campus before anyone gets hurt or killed" said Jin, taking off the collar on his neck.
"That ship…"
"Hm?"
"That's Shtrayu's Flagship Fortress! But what is it doing here attacking the Holy Land?!" Said Maria
"It's not Shtrayu that's attacking us Maria…It's Babalun…"
At the Royal Dorm of Shtrayu, The Empress was upset at the fact that Babalun had the guts to invade the Holy Land with her country's flagship: BABEL
One of the Empress' attendants Mahya said "Empress Lashara, the Principal would like a word with you"
The Empress picked up the phone and said "Hello?"
"Could you please explain to us just what is going on out there?" Said Headmistress
"We suppose this means you have heard about our current predicament in Shtrayu…Please, you have to believe us! We had nothing to do with this!" said Lashara, pointing at the Flagship.
"No, of course you didn't…However, given the current situation, I believe we have no choice but to evacuate the campus…But we won't be able to do it without you!" said Headmistress
"Whatever you need!" She replied as she hung up.
"Mahya Go…! Get the Swan ready for takeoff immediately…!" said Lashara
"Yes Empress!" said Mahya
"Kenshi! You have to fight them off and keep us safe…You are the only one who can do it!" said Lashara
"Do you think I could maybe get a little help?" said Kenshi
"The Holy Land Instructors have started to evacuate the students…But every second that ship passes, those bad guys get closer and closer…And if we don't do something to stop them soon, we will be in a awful situation!" said Lashara
"We or you? My family motto is 'one must clean up their own messes', and I think those are wise words!" said Kenshi
They then see the door burst open to see the Battlemaster as he said "This isn't the time for back talk or wise words Kenshi!"
"Jin?! What are you-wait you're ble-"
"I'm fine. Long story short, two more of your Uncle's killers were here and tried to pull the okey-doke, disguised as our maids and almost killed Maria and Yukine; but they ended up sharing the same fate as the one at the resort" said Jin
"Are they okay?" said Chiaia
"They're both fine, Yukine is taking Maria to her mother by Mechaworker as Queen Flora is on her way. Empress, are you gonna help with the evacuation of the students?"
"Yes we are! We've already told the Headmistress about assistance anyway possible. Is there any chance that-"
"You have no worries, I'm here to lend an extra hand. Kenshi, go to Wahan's workshop now and try to get the student's lives to safety, cause right now every single innocent life in the Holy Land is in grave danger" said Jin
"Got it! On my way!" said Kenshi, leaving the room
"Where's the Hoverboard?" Jin asked
"It's in the drawer in my room along with the belt" Kenshi said, leaving the dorm.
Before the Battlemaster could go upstairs, he looked at Chiaia, who was looking outside and sees a dark blue/yellow Mechanoid attacking the Holy Land and the Shurifon Guards in their Mechanoids.
"The person in that blue mechnoid is Dagmyer, is it?" said Jin
"I was there when he had attacked the Swan…twice" said Chiaia
"Twice?! Why that bast-" The Battlemaster was trying keeping composure calm and did breathing in and out.
"Chiaia…" The young female mechamaster looked at him as he said these words…
"Everyone has their secrets and some has skeletons in their closets. Many people keep their secrets for the sake of protecting others and some do the polar opposite, sometimes you just have wait till they show the truth to you…The point is we all have secrets but we have to accept the truth no matter how painful or shocking it can be" said Jin
"What about your secrets?" Chiaia asked
"If you knew my secrets right now, it would be way too much for you to handle" he replied
"Are you two gonna stand there or are you gonna help?" said Lashara, standing at the door.
"On it Empress" said Jin, heading upstairs to Kenshi's room.
"What he said to you now depends on what your heart wants or what you choose to do for the sake of others…" said Lashara
Meanwhile as the Holy Land was getting invaded, Kenshi went to Wahan's Workshop and took one of the Unarmed Mechaworkers as he went to the forest; Princess Aura's Dorm was getting taken over by Lan and her bandits. While the Aura's attendants were outside trying to get in but couldn't due to a bandit firing a rifle gun, the Dark Elf Princess was on her bed feeling weak, helpless and innocent as it was one of those days when she was at her weakest. Before the bandits try anything on the Shurifon Princess, Kenshi came bursting through the windows and quickly threw Lan and her bandits out the dorm for the second leader of the bandits to hang from the tree branch with one of her fellow thieves were hanging from her pants but couldn't hold on as her pants were slipping and as he fell, he took Lan's Panties with him as she screamed in embarrassment; As Kenshi escapes the dorm with Aura on the Mechaworker, she went back to her normal self with the serious attitude but felt a little embarrassed when she held Kenshi and then have her attendants search for students and bring them to safety.
In a academy building, a man was defending a pregnant woman who was in her final month against a group of bandits who wanted to loot both of until…
"Stealing from a man and a pregnant woman? Can thieves actually be ashamed of themselves?" Behind them was the Battlemaster, who didn't look happy.
The bandits came straight at him as it was their big mistake, in a quick pace, Jin took out the bandits to the shock of the man and the woman whose water just broke.
"Aw shit…you might wanna follow me quickly, the way to the Swan is not far" said Jin, picking up the pregnant woman and ran quickly as the man followed him.
Back at the field of the Holy Land, the Shurifon guards in the mechanoids were getting outnumbered and was taken down, nearly getting killed but luck was on their side for the defense turret system to activate as it kept Dagmyer and the others at bay for the guards to escape from the mechanoids and get to safety.
Aura was relieved that her people wasn't killed, while Kenshi was remembering something that Satoshi told him a month and a few weeks ago that night before the two became handyman for the Student Council.
(Flashback)
"What is it?" said Kenshi
"Are you the pilot of the White Sacred Mechanoid?" Satoshi asked
"Uh…umm…" Kenshi looked down cause he knew he was going to be in trouble.
"It's alright, don't worry about that, I'm not mad at you…I just want you to be careful…"
"Why?"
"Because when there is a time for the secret to come out, it'll be time for me to show my true colors as well"
"What do you mean Sato? I don't get it…"
"The empress made the right choice by making you her attendant to avoid suspicions of the Holy Land about you being a Mechamaster and she had a right to do it; and I've been in disguise the whole entire time to avoid anyone who sees my real face and knows who I actually am"
"But why don't you show your real face around here in the Holy Land?" Kenshi asked
"Cause the enemy is here…but I know that they won't attack until the time is right and they're far from ready, so for now the Holy Land should be peaceful as long as you and me are around" Satoshi replied
"Wait…are you saying that you are a Sacred Mechamaster?"
"No Kenshi…I'm beyond it" He then showed his little brother the MBA bracelet that was sparkling green light as Kenshi looked in awe.
(Flashback End)
"Beyond a Sacred Mechamaster? Is that even possible?" Kenshi thought
"Kenshi focus! We need to find a way to secure the students to safety" said Aura
"Right" he replied
As the defense turret system was active, it fired at the mechanoids, also at the flagship BABEL, but it was taking minimal hits. The Prime Minister decided to launch all Sacred Mechanoids to try to destroy the defense system to prevent it from getting in the ship's way.
"Prime Minister…"
"What is it?" said Babalun
"We have received a transmission from Queen Flora of Havoniwa"
The screen came on with view the face of the Queen of Havoniwa.
"Lord Babalun…What is going on? What is the meaning of this attack on the Holy Land?" Flora asked
"A silly question…You know as well as I do what's happening Queen Flora, so don't play the fool with me. Just be warned…we won't stop until we've achieved our goal" he replied
"Well, I have to admit…I figured as much. After all, when someone wages war in the Holy Land, it must be for some greater purpose, right?" said Flora
"Lord Babalun…! A massive object is coming straight towards us!"
"What's that?!"
Very far from the BABEL was a Armored Train on the tracks following the flagship. Inside the front cars of the train revealed to be cannons.
"Your majesty, all cannons are ready…waiting on your command!" said Havoniwan Soldier
"Commence attack please" said Flora
By her command, the cannons were fired at the flagship; in retaliation, they fired their cannons back at the train.
"Principal…I haven't spoken to you in ages" said Flora, talking to the Headmistress (Via transmission)
"Yet another grand entrance" said Headmistress
"You know me…I'm happy to take as many of the students and faculty as I can hold…Open the tracks when you're ready" said Flora
"Thanks so much…It means a lot" Headmistress replied
Meanwhile the Battlemaster made it to the Swan, where Angela and Vanessa was standing there along with the Empress.
"Do anyone knows how to deliver a baby?" said Jin
"Over here" said Vanessa
He then gave the pregnant woman to the soon-to-be father for him to take her to the nursery room for the attendant to start the operation.
"You have quite the good heart Jin. Now we have to do now is wait for the others" said Lashara
"There's no time. The more we wait, it'll be the time when Babalun and his son spring their trap anywhere especially the Colosseum which could endanger the lives of the students"
"The Colosseum?! But why there? A Sacred Mechanoid can't go above ena's draft, that'll be impossible!" said Lashara
"And me defeating a Sacred Mechanoid without one was impossible? Think about it…What would be the biggest thing in the Colosseum?"
"Well, it would b-"
"No one move!" They see two Sacred Mechanoids armed and aimed at them.
"Surrender now Empress Lashara and Lord Babalun just might show you and your friends mercy" said Man in the Mechanoid
The Empress was upset by getting caught this easily and without Chiaia, Wahan or Kenshi around, she's a sitting duck.
"W-What's going on?! I can't move!" Two of the Mechanoids couldn't move for some reason. The Empress was confused till she remembered when her mother's killer said the same thing before he met his end by…
The Battlemaster eyes were hidden while he was feeling nothing but anger as his aura was igniting.
"Jin?" The Empress was surprised that he had such a power within him.
In a blur of energy, the Battlemaster quickly sliced parts of the Mechanoids apart, leaving both the cores to fall all the way to the bottom.
The Battlemaster looked at the Empress with his real eyes as she looked really shocked.
"Wait…are yo-" He put his finger on her lip before she say anything else.
"Lashara…Everyone is in danger…and besides Kenshi, I'm the one that can bring them here safely. I'm going back to the field and give them a taste of their own medicine" Before he got off the Swan, the Empress grabbed him by his uniform, stopping him.
"Why?"
"…" All he could do was just take a slap to the face by the Empress.
"Why didn't you tell us you were here all this time?! We were looking for you! Trying to find you and now you reveal yourself to us?! Of all times, why now that you decide to tell us?!" said Lashara, shedding tears while slapping him in the face many times.
The Battlemaster grabbed her hands to stop the Empress and then explained…
"There were many reasons why I couldn't tell you, why I had to do this…your life including the others come first before my own and I would've put your life in danger if anyone knew who I was…for that I'm sorry. Things had happened after I had helped you in Shtrayu and I been through a lot of hell to try to protect you while keeping my real identity in the shadows, but it seems like I had failed at that since cover is gonna be blown now. But…I'm really thankful to you and Chiaia for taking care of Kenshi. He told me what happened before you made him your attendant…and I apologize for his hard-headedness"
The Empress saw a lot of honesty and guilt for some of his actions, then said "Then there's only one thing we will do to forgive you…"
"And what is that?"
"You must take our hand in marriage!" said Lashara
"W-Wait, Marriage?!"
"You saved our lives many times, trying to wipe out Uncle Sarix's killers, you even avenged mother's death" said Lashara
"I don't deserve it…there are many things that I have kept secret from you including everyone else and to now tell you during the invasion is completely selfish of m-" Before the Battlemaster could say anything else, the Empress of Shtrayu pressed her lips against his to The Battlemaster's surprise.
"Whether it was selfish or not, your actions have proved that you would give up your life to protect others and right now you have to do it again…Now go…we are not gonna stop you, but you will come back to us alive with the students and your brother" said Lashara
"Yes Emp-" She stopped him again by putting her finger against his lips.
She blushes and said "Just call us by our real name…"
He lightly smiled and replied "I'll be back Lashara"
He jumped off the Swan and run into the field of the Holy Land and into battle.
"Empress, We have successfully birthed the woman's child and-Wait, where's Mr Kisaki?" Said Mahya
"He's heading back to get the students" said Lashara
Back to the field, some of the students and staff were able to escape to the secret exit to the Havoniwan Armored Train, while the other students are heading into the Colosseum. One of the winds from the blast put one of the students to the ground as Lapis and Lithia helped the student. As the Mechamaster laughed and went away, the Council President wasn't having it anymore and decided to take actions in her hands. She went to one of the platforms as she placed a Symbol Token and turned the switch, opening the platform revealing a cocoon that was coming up as she took off her Holy Land Student uniform and was in her Mechamaster uniform.
Her assistant didn't want her to go into the mechanoid cause she knew that Lithia will be outnumbered and killed, but the council president decides to take the risk and give Lapis and the others some time. From afar one of the Mechanoids fired at them as the wind from the blast knocked the two off their feet as they landed on their bottoms.
"You big coward! You should be ashamed of yourself!" said Lithia
The pilot of the Mechanoid wasn't happy about the Council President's statement as he prepared to fire straight at her and Lapis.
The Student President's assistant is shielding her as the Mechanoid is ready to fire at them.
"Lapis, what are you doing?! Get out of the way before you end getting killed!" said Lithia
"No way! You were protecting me this whole time, it's my turn to protect you!" said Lapis
The Mechanoid fired at the two, but in a swift pace Kenshi and Aura saved the two of them (by Mechaworker) before the blast hit them. Kenshi then set the Mechaworker behind the tree to give the four of them.
"You're not hurt, are you Lithia?" said Aura
"I'm fine, just a little shaken up…" said Lithia
The council president then seeing her assistant crying on Kenshi chest.
"Lapis, why are you crying? What's wrong?" Lithia asked
"Oh…I'm fine, I'm just glad you're okay, Lady Lithia" Lapis sobbed
Kenshi looked around and see the destruction that Dagmyer and the others are causing in the Holy Land as other students are running. He seeing homes destroyed, defense systems being obliterated and forests getting burned. The young man couldn't take anything else getting destroyed or anyone getting hurt and killed, he has to do something…
"Kenshi…"
"…! Brother, is that you?"
"Kenshi listen…if you're gonna do what I think you're about to do, then you better wait a moment, I'll distract them and give you the signal when to go…"
They then see what looks like a big pile of smoke.
From the top of the Colosseum, Chiaia is seeing the carnage that Dagmyer is causing and didn't want to believe that he is one of the people that's calling the shots.
Mexiah was behind her after informing the students of the secret passages to the Swan, The Church's Battleship and Queen Flora's Armored Train. She is reminding her that she is a bodyguard and her loyalty is to Lashara.
Wrenda, Yeliss, Bwoole and Gryino informed Mexiah that some of the students took the secret escape routes to the different ships.
Yeliss said "Hey, look over there…" as she pointed at the direction everyone looked at…
Emerging from the smoke was Wahanly in her Mechaworker (Fully armed with rockets and machine-guns) firing at the Mechanoids, giving them a fight and the distraction Kenshi needed.
"Wahan is something else…" said Wreda
"But she's gotta be crazy if she's going against all those Mechanoids!" said Bwoole
"Now Kenshi! Hurry!"
"Princess Aura, please watch Lady Lithia and Lapis for me" said Kenshi, getting off the Mechaworker and ran fast.
"And what exactly do you think you're doing?!" said Lithia
"Kenshi wait!" said Aura
One of the Mechamasters laughed cause he knows that Kenshi is Lashara's attendant, but what he doesn't know is what Kenshi is capable of…
"Wait, is that Kenshi?" said Gryino
They then looked at the direction of Kenshi as he is heading straight towards the cocoon with two Mechanoid coming behind him.
"Kenshi no!" said Mexiah
"What is that idiot doing?" said Chiaia
Maria and Yukine from afar on one of the rooftops (Finished helping evacuate some of the students and staff) seeing Kenshi in trouble as he was heading towards the cocoon.
"Kenshi…" Yukine feels very worried for Kenshi's safety.
"Sato, where are you? Your brother is in grave danger…" Maria Thought
Dagmyer from the distance sees Kenshi almost near the cocoon with two of his men following him.
"What do you idiots think you doing?! Stop him!" Said Dagmyer
The Mechanoids were too close and blocked Dagmyer's way to take a shot at the boy.
Dagmyer got in-front of the two, aimed his finger beam at Kenshi and said "DIE!"
Before Dagmyer could even fire the beam at Kenshi, a red beam appeared outta nowhere and hit Dagmyer's Mechanoid on the shoulder, knocking him to the ground.
"Whoa! Where did that blast come from?!" said Gryino
"It couldn't be…" Chiaia thinking for a second that the blast might've came from Jin, but doesn't see him anywhere in sight.
The other two Mechamasters thought the blast came from Kenshi and was about to blast him but there was another problem. They see their weapons looked very solid and fragile and as they pulled the trigger, the weapon fell apart.
"What the-How are our weapons just…"
The Two Male Mechamasters including Dagmyer, Lithia, Aura, Lapis, Maria, Yukine, Wahanly, Chiaia, Mexiah and the Four girls saw Kenshi touched the cocoon as the reaction emitted a white light of aura touching ena's draft.
"That Little Brat!" said Dagmyer
Kenshi then had a serious face as the time to play was over.
"It's Kenshi!" said The Four Girls
"That Jerk…" said Chiaia
From behind Ulyte looked at the Cocoon that Kenshi has touched and then looked at Mexiah (who looked amazed at what Kenshi is doing) as he was setting the rest of the plan in motion.
Meanwhile on the Swan, Vanessa and Angela informed Lashara that 1,149 students and faculty have taken refuge on her ship. The Empress is surprised at how her Aunt is taking the fight to Babalun until…
"What's going on?!" As Maria appeared on her screen as did the Headmistress.
"Would you care to explain?!" said Headmistress
"Wait…Explain what?" said Lashara
"Him…! Him!" Maria pointed at the direction where Kenshi is entering the Cocoon of the Mechanoid.
"Oh my…!" said Vanessa
"That's Kenshi…! But it can't be!" said Angela
They see Dagmyer blast 3 times at the White Mechanoid trying to take shape, but the Mechanoid of Kenshi caught the blast and shaped it into a ball for him to crush it. The White Mechanoid then released its own limiter in its arms as it shined bright light for some of Dagmyer's men to have aho sickness and for the White Mechanoid to finish taking shape.
"Can it be…? Is he really a light-type?" said Headmistress
"What's a light-type?" Maria & Lashara asked
"The sacred texts of the Church tell us, 'He who is garbed in light shall be the savior of the world…While he who dons the robes of darkness shall be bent on its destruction'" Headmistress explained
"Darkness…and Light?" said Lashara as she reminisce her seeing the Black Mechanoid and Dagmyer's as they retreated from the first failed attempt to assassinate her.
"Both of these forces are interconnected. Light can take the shape of Darkness and Darkness can take the shape of Light" said Headmistress
"Does any of the sacred text say anything about a Sacred Battlemaster?" Maria asked
"A Sacred Battlemaster? I've never heard of anything like that before? Where have you heard it from?" said Headmistress
"Someone told me about one…" said Maria
Yukine looked at her mistress/best friend cause she knew who she was talking about, but doesn't want to blow the Battlemaster's cover as she looked on to his brother's Mechanoid almost done taking shape.
Lithia & Lapis were surprised about Kenshi's secret being the White Sacred Mechamaster especially Aura (Who was incredibly surprised).
Wahanly wasn't surprised as cause she knew he was able to pilot a Mechanoid like that since her and Chiaia faced Kenshi for the very first time.
Meanwhile at the top of the Colosseum, Chiaia seeing the White Mechanoid nearly done, then looked at the four girls who are really surprised and was blushing that Kenshi was a Sacred Mechamaster this whole time.
The Battlemaster looked from afar, seeing the White Mechanoid ready to take action.
"Go for it, Lil Bro…" as he went into the forest, tailing the location of the Flagship Fortress.
In an invisible force of speed, Kenshi quickly took out one of the Mechanoids. Seeing the eyes of the White Mechanoid put fear on one of the other male Mechamasters as he saw one of his comrades not responding after being taken out in instant.
"Don't kill me…! Please don't kill me!" as one of Mechanoids tried to leave the battlefield, but the White Mechanoid wouldn't have it as he knocked away both Dagmyer and the other Mechanoid to grab the Yellowish-Green Mechanoid and crushed it as the Mechamaster inside of it screams.
The Mechamaster in the Mechanoid that was near Dagmyer had a face that was so scared, he defecated from the inside of his Mechanoid. Dagmyer blasted the White Mechanoid twice, but Kenshi deflected the blasts with his strong tail. Kenshi then came after Dagmyer till Cordyline and her backup came to his rescue and blast the White Mechanoid, but was unable to land a hit on him as he dodged all of them and quickly headed into the Colosseum as they followed him.
"Kenshi, no…! It was a trap!"
Chiaia and the four girls were worried about Kenshi as he is being outnumbered in the Colosseum, but as she was paying attention to Kenshi, she then realized something…
"Hey…Where'd Mexiah go?" said Chiaia
Back in the forest, The Battlemaster was tailing the Babel, knowing full well that Babalun was on that ship.
"I'm gonna make you pay…for everything that you have done!" Satoshi thought, jumping from tree to tree in stealth.
As he was tailing the ship, he sees a few Mechanoids guarding the flagship and scouting the area for unexpected threats.
"Goddamn it…"
Back at the Colosseum, even though they outnumbered Kenshi, he had the advantage…as the arena is surrounded by pillars, he greatly used it for speed, stealth and execution on the Mechanoids. One by one, in a fast pace, Kenshi has wiped out the Mechanoids in different types of ways, leaving the Mechamasters defeated but alive.
Chiaia was incredibly impressed by the way Kenshi fought them all as was the rest of the Students (Mainly Female). Wrenda, Yeliss, Bwoole and Gryino told their classmates and their underclassman that Kenshi is the one fighting off Dagmyer's crew of Mechamasters. Every student watching him was so overjoyed that Kenshi is fighting for them while Chiaia was still thinking how did he take them all out even when he was outnumbered; till she then remembered when Lashara was talking to him about the arena, he felt like it was so easy that even a cabbit can do it.
Chiaia slightly smiled and said "What an idiot"
She then looked up at the far end where the Sacred Mechalord is and sees her sister.
"Mexiah?"
Meanwhile on the Armored Train, Queen Flora was still giving the Babel a fight. Maria along with Yukine safely arrived into the train to see the queen upstairs.
"Mother!"
"Yukine, I owe you big time…Thank you for bringing my baby back to me in one piece" said Flora
"Yes, ma'am" said Yukine, while blushing.
They are looking at the screen where Kenshi is fighting off what looks like one of the last Mechanoids.
"This day certainly has been full of surprises. Can you believe he's a Sacred Mechamaster? Amazing! It's hard to imagine someone wielding that amount of power…One of these days, I'll make that niece of mine give me the inside scoop!" Said Flora, gripping her chair while gripping her face feeling so impressed.
Maria touched her mother's hand on the chair to calm her down.
"Thanks to Kenshi, the majority of the enemy Sacred Mechanoids are inoperable…If we keep pushing forward, we should be able to make them retreat" said Maria
"I wouldn't be so certain" The princess looked at her mother as she said "Babalun's still got something up his sleeve. Don't count him out yet"
"You should know not to count out Sato as well mother" said Maria
"Speaking of him, where is-wait…Yukine, what happened to your uniform?" The Queen asked, looking at the tear on her uniform.
"Two more of Father's killers came disguised as maids and nearly killed Yukine until he came and put them out of their misery" said Maria
"If he keeps doing what he does, I really might consider him being the greatest son in-law ever!" said Flora
Maria flushing as she yelled "Mother!"
In the forest, the Battlemaster ran till he then stop at where the Flagship Fortress stopped at…it was at a place where the small land of trees surrounded by water.
"What the hell is he up to?"
The Babel then created a spell circle of what looks like an anti-barrier circle.
"What is he trying to-" before he can even finish the words coming out of his mouth, the MBA reacted as it was telling him something. As he closed his eyes, he sees the Colosseum where Kenshi is finishing taking down the Mechamaster Cliff, Cordyline and Dagmyer, but what really caught his attention was Mexiah (with no pupils in her eyes) standing on the arms of the Sacred Mechalord, including hidden Sacred Mechanoids coming at the stadium.
"Aw shit!" He had to make a choice: To come at Babalun on that ship or to go save his brother and the students before the trap is sprung and to stop Mexiah before she makes a mistake she's gonna regret…he cursed under his breath as he ran quickly to Colosseum.
On the Church's battleship, Hannah looked at the weird conspiracy that Babalun is doing, but the Headmistress then knew what Babalun was going after…
Wahanly along with Lithia, Lapis and Aura arrived at the Colosseum stands (by Mechaworker) where the students are as they are seeing the end of the battle.
Kenshi took out Cliff, leaving him on the ground with one arm and the Mechanoid inoperable. Then he got Dagmyer, with his arm through the gut under the core, leaving Cordyline for last as she blasts at Kenshi to get him away from Dagmyer as he jumped out the core and land on the speeder-bike driven by Lan to get away. Kenshi then finished off Cordyline's Mechanoid leaving her alive but defeated. Kenshi felt like he could take a breather until…
"Mexiah…! What is wrong with you?!" He heard Chiaia's voice as he turned to the direction where she was and saw her including Mexiah who was standing on the arms of the Sacred Mechalord on the pedestal.
"Say something…! Can't you hear my voice?! Please…! Will you just answer me?! Mexiah!" Chiaia trying her hardest to snap her sister out of her trance until…
"It has been quite a while Chiaia" A Holographic projection of Babalun was standing aside Mexiah.
"What is going on…? Tell me, what have you done to my sister?" Chiaia asked
"You'll find out soon enough. Stand back" The pedestal then moved right into it's dropping point.
"That's the Sacred Mechalord Pedestal!" said Yeliss, as her and the students are watching it happen.
"Something isn't right" said Kenshi
"Kenshi!"
"Brother? Something's going on wit-"
"Yes I know, I sensed it"
The clouds were getting dark as the Battlemaster was riding out in the forest using the hoverboard, headed for the Colosseum without wasting any of his power. He then saw the anti-barrier synced and as it had flashed, the small land turned into dark matter as it opened a whirlpool and pulled what looks like a big black shield. The Battlemaster including the others felt the ground rumbling like an earthquake around the Holy Land.
The Battlemaster fell off the Hoverboard and was on the ground, on his knees as he is feeling the ground shaking. He then saw his MBA reacted very brightly.
"Shit…"
While at the Colosseum, the students, Chiaia and Kenshi are even felt the ground rumbled.
"What's going on?" said Kenshi
"It can't be!" said Chiaia
Babalun laughed mechanically and then said "That's right, come to life…"
Mexiah's pupils came back but she had felt incredible pain in her head, it felt as if she was about to split in two.
"Let her go!" Chiaia Yelled
"Chiaia, it's about time you know the truth that Mexiah isn't actually your real sister…"
Those words really shocked Chiaia straight to the being of her soul.
"Your father had founded her at the excavation sites where he found the Sacred Mechalord. Your 'sister' is part of the ancient civilization" said Babalun
"That's impossible…" said Chiaia, still feeling shocked.
"See for yourself" The holographic projection of Babalun disappeared while Mexiah screamed as her entire body was coated in black, undergoing a transformation.
"Ms Mexiah!" said Kenshi
Everyone at the stands was gasping in shock at what Mexiah was turning into…
Her body took form of a teenager (decreasing her breast size a bit) with green hair(with bangs covering her right eye), pink eyes, black dress (with red color on the inside) and black heels.
The green-haired girl that was known as Mexiah swayed her hair from left to right then laughed mechanically.
"Is that…Doll?" Kenshi knew who Doll was in the past, cause she was there after Dagmyer retreated and when she took him out the cage and away from the Swan. When Kenshi found out that Dagmyer was playing him as a extended tool about going home, he wiped out his men and left his ship with Aura coming at his rescue. It was the last time he had saw Doll till now, the young Sacred Mechamaster of light is shocked that the person he knew as his instructor and close friend is now one of the big problems that could help the Mests win the invasion. But that's not the only thing that's going through his mind, it was something that he remembered 12 days ago that clicked his mind…
"He knew…"
Chiaia was on her knees in complete disbelief, saying "It can't be real, it just can't…"
On separate ships Lashara felt surprised, Maria & Yukine were shocked as the Queen knew what Babalun was about to pull. While the Church's battleship as some of the staff were in shock, Headmistress stood on her feet and said "Put me on the direct line with The Pope!"
From the stands in the Mechaworkers were Lithia, Lapis, Aura and Wahanly who were still shocked about Mexiah being the Black Sacred Mechamaster.
"No, this cannot be happening" said Aura
"I don't how things can possibly get any worse!" said Wahanly
They heard Babalun's voice as he said "The ways of old are resurrected!"
They then see the Sacred Mechalord move its arm, grabbed one of the inoperable Mechanoids (that one of the Mechamasters left) and devoured the core to create one for Doll to enter.
"Sister!" Doll looked up at the stands to see her teared-up but angry foster little sister.
"I'd hurry and get those kids out of here…Unless of course, you want them to die" said Doll
"No, wait…! You don't have to do this! Mexiah, don't go…! Please stop!" Not hearing her little sister's plea, she entered the Sacred Mechalord and turned it on as the shroud of darkness took color on the Mechalord.
She then went charging at Kenshi as she was knocking down pillars, but the young Mechamaster of light quickly dodged the giant machine of power.
"I hate pillars" Doll then used the rings of the Mechalord to destroy some of the pillars in the Colosseum.
A piece of the pillar was coming straight at the students. Before it could even impact, it disappeared into thin air.
"Lithia, did you just-"
"I saw it too"
Before Doll could take another shot at destroying the rest of the pillars, Kenshi quickly grabbed the Mechalord's arm to prevent it from happening.
"Lord Babalun, we are detecting an anonymous source of energy coming from somewhere in the Holy Land"
"Really? Send reinforcements to block the escape routes in the Colosseum, make sure no one gets in or out" said Babalun
"Yes sir"
"Also…increase and raise the draft…"
The Babel activated a mysterious symbolic circle and as it flashed, ena's draft was being raised above the Colosseum, making the current situation a lot worse.
"W-Why is ena's draft-"
"Lady Lithia!" Lapis pointed at more than 10 Sacred Mechanoids coming straight at them. The eight of them surrounded Kenshi and aimed their weapons at him.
"Kenshi!" Before Wahan could even try to assist them, the other two Mechanoids had their weapons aimed at the students and them as she cursed under her breath.
"The Draft! It's been-"
"We need to retreat…" The princess looked at her mother as her face was a serious one…
"Wait mother, you can't really mean-"
"We have no other choice, if we don't then we'll end up getting captured as well" said Flora
"But mother-" The princess felt her mother's hand as it was shaking in fear.
"Please…I've already lost your father, I don't want to lose you too…"
"But what about Lashara?!"
"Don't worry, I got it covered…" The two including Yukine then recognized the voice and it was none other than the Battlemaster himself.
"Sato?! Where are you?!" said Maria
"I'm headed to the Colosseum…"
"You what?!" said Flora and Maria
"There is no way that I'm gonna let things like this slide, especially when Babalun pulls a stunt like that. I'm getting them out of there"
"How can you even do that?! There are 10 Mechanoids in the Colosseum, one of them is guarding the outside, while the others are holding Kenshi and the students hostage, plus the big problem is Mexiah in the Sacred Mechalord. What you're planning to do is complete suicide!" said Flora
"I know…but it isn't the first time and it won't be my last, so I'll risk it. I knew there would be a time when Babalun would invade the Holy Land since day one when I went undercover as your daughter's attendant. But as of now, my undercover life as Jin Kisaki is over…and it's about time to show the world who I truly am"
The princess of Havoniwa was tearing up and said "You better come out of there with them alive!"
"You can count on it. And Yukine…"
"Uh…Yes?"
"When I get everyone outta there…you have my permission to marry my little brother"
Yukine then flushed like a red tomato as steam was coming out of her ears.
"Now Queen Flora, here's something that I want you to do…"
Back at the Colosseum, while everyone was being held hostage by Doll and the other Mechanoids, the Holographic projection of Babalun appeared once again.
"Well, it seems like I have found additional members to my army" said Babalun
"We are not gonna be used as tools for your amusement to try to take over Geminar Babalun, so you can forget it!" said Lithia
"Then maybe I should set an example for you…" He then motioned all the Mechanoids to prepare to fire straight at Kenshi.
"Big Sis Mexiah don't do this, you're a good person, I don't want to fight you and you don't want to do this …" said Kenshi
"I don't want this either, but fighting is my reason for existing. It's my destiny Kenshi…so I have no other choice…" said Doll
From the outside of the Colosseum, one of the Mechanoids was standing guard when he saw a bush shaking. He had his gun ready, but the bush popped out was 2 Koros and didn't see it as a threat and just as he turned to the right, someone with glowing green eyes came at him in invisible speed.
"What the f-"
From the inside, they then heard explosions outside of the arena, and what they saw next…was a Sacred Mechanoid flying and then came crashing down as the Mechanoid's top and bottom are separated…
"W-what th-" the Mechamasters including Doll are surprised by the damage done to the Mechanoid.
"Wait a minute, there's no one else besides Kenshi that's riding a Sacred Mechanoid that's fighting for us…unless-" before the Student Council President could finish, five small red red beams appeared outta nowhere, hitting 3 Mechanoids, giving Kenshi the chance to escape by jumping away from the surrounding spot.
"So…this is the choice you made?"
Lithia and some of the others had expected him to be at the Colosseum except for Doll and the rest of the students (including the teachers, staff who were watching from the monitor that also includes Lashara, Maria, Yukine and Queen Flora) who see that the person emerged from the top of the arena entrance…was Jin (With the Holy Land Uniform open).
"Jin?! How did-"
What they saw wasn't a happy face on Jin at all, but the Battlemaster was pissed at a new level as he didn't even gritted his teeth, also his eyes hid in shadow. No veins shown on his face, but what appears to be a normal upset face was a face that no one would ever want to see on the Battlemaster as the first words that he said was…
"I just have to say…You just made the biggest mistake of your life…"
"Mr Kisaki?!" The Headmistress is shocked to see the Battlemaster there at the Colosseum, the other one is the fact he took out a Sacred Mechanoid without one with his own two hands.
"What is that boy doing there? He's gonna get himself killed!" said Hannah
"I'm afraid that isn't the point Hannah…I think Mr Kisaki knew who Mexiah was the whole time"
Doll felt shocked and surprised that Jin would show up here but then remembered what he said after he treated Kenshi.
"The hunter becomes the hunted in the worst way possible"
She then looked at the Mechanoid that was taken out, then looked at the Battlemaster.
"You were serious…" said Doll
"Tell me…What made you think that this was your only choice? To put your students in harms way? Endangering their lives including your little sister and then use the Sacred Mechalord to help Babalun take over the Holy Land and then the rest of this world?! Ha! The late Empress of Shtrayu would turn in her own grave to see what type of person you're becoming right now. Look around you!" said Jin
She saw the faces of her students: Afraid, Terrified and traumatized.
"How is this spreading happiness?! The only thing you're doing is taking it away from them including their own home!" said Jin
"So…you must be the one t-"
"I advise you keep your mouth shut asshole! Besides some of King Sarix and Empress Eireen's killers I've taken out, you're at the very top of my list!" Jin Interrupted Babalun.
Everyone looked at Jin in shock of what he just said…
"Something tells me that Babalun must've done something to really tick him off" said Wahanly
(Don't own any music)
La la la, la la la la [x4]
"I think you are over your head boy. It's about time you know your place in this world" said Babalun
"I already know my place…and it's to protect everyone from the arrogance of your greed. And to start this off, is to show you what I'm capable of…"
If you had the courage to stop me from turning
Into what would be the worst in everybody's eyes
Hey, I'm no angel, or the devil of your conscience
To tell you who to be. Good, bad, ugly or otherwise
The Battlemaster took off the Holy Land uniform and threw it out the Colosseum. With the BFP on the holster on his back of his black tank-top, the MBA on his left and Disguiser on his right arm, the Battlemaster was completely ready for battle.
"Jin wait! Think this through!" said Lithia
"She's right, this isn't worth getting yourself killed!" said Aura
If you had good common sense, your choices would be gleaming flawless
I want no part in this self-deprecating, worthless, chemistry
"I advise you take their opinion otherwise…" Two of the Mechanoids have their weapons ready and aimed at the students and the others in the Mechaworkers.
"You should know something…I'm not playing your games anymore" He pressed a button on his Disguiser that activated something…
We made our beds to lie in them proud, proud of our great mistakes
This warring knife, the flash of it's blade, turn about-face
From the sides of the stands, eight beacons of light flashed as the energies connected, forming what seems to be a energy force field, protecting the students and the others from harm.
"What the hell?" The Mechanoids blast at the force field but it rendered their weapons useless against it.
"Ladies…" All the female students looked at him as he said "Enjoy the show…"
I implore you, brother
Don't walk away, don't walk away from me
'Cause this is our war
The Battlemaster in a force of speed went after the two Mechanoids, he kicked the first one out of the Colosseum in force of power, leaving the Mechanoid on the ground. Then he pulled the BFP out of his holsters and quickly turned them into laser swords; and in just seconds, he cut the second Mechanoid apart, then pale kicked the core straight at the Mechanoid outside the Colosseum and turned BFP back into guns, firing the Electric-Fire at the spot, killing the two male Mechamasters.
Everyone (besides a few that knew what the Battlemaster was capable of) was shocked at what he just did.
"Holy Freaking Crap!" said Wahanly
Oh, you think they have it all while you were left with nothing
Oh, oh, you've taken the fall for them to walk all over
You made your bed, so soft and comforting
These dreams await the grey good morning
"Princess Maria and Queen Flora, what kind of attendant have you been teaching the boy?!" said Headmistress (via Communication)
"To tell you the truth, he wasn't an attendant to begin with nor one I have hired for my daughter…" said Flora
"Excuse me?!"
The Havoniwa Princess decides to tell the Headmistress everything about the Battlemaster and the reason why he was in the Holy Land in the first place…
Back at the Swan, the Empress of Shtrayu was amazed at how the Battlemaster is dealing with the situation as was her attendants.
"Incredible! If he isn't a Sacred Mechamaster, then he must be on a completely different level" Lashara Thought
Back at the Colosseum, The Battlemaster was avoiding and deflecting the blasts from the Mechanoids when he then see Doll about to throw the rings of the Mechalord at him.
"Mexiah no!" Yelled Chiaia
Even from the inside of her being was telling Doll not to kill Jin.
We made our beds to lie in them proud, proud of our great mistakes
This warring knife, the flash of it's blade, turn about-face
The Battlemaster disappeared suddenly, then out of thin air appeared in-front of her, kicked the Mechalord back, giving Doll distance from the fight. The Battlemaster changed the BFP into gauntlets, but the color was yellow instead of green for some reason. As he thrust with his gauntlets, a sudden wave of energy what seemed to be electricity came and flowed through the Mechalord.
As she tried to move the Mechalord, the ancient machine didn't move.
"What did you do?!" Doll Yelled
"Just making sure you stay out of my way" said Jin, turned his BFP back into Laser Swords.
I implore you, brother
Don't walk away, don't walk away from me
'Cause this is our war
Kenshi then joins his brother into the fight by ripping one of the Mechanoids apart. The Mechanoids sees this and blasts at the White Mechanoid, but he hides and avoids them by using some of the pillars that are still intact. The Battlemaster then tears apart two of Mechanoids' weapons and knocked them away from the pillar spot where Kenshi is including deflecting the blasts; one of the blasts that was deflected destroyed another of the Mechanoids' weapons.
Oh, we've got you by the throat
Oh!
All you wanna be...
The Students were amazed at what the Battlemaster was doing along with some assistance from Kenshi.
"Whoa, Jin is really putting his life on the line for us, him and Kenshi" said Lapis
"I don't know how is he still able to fight like this, but he's gonna reach his limit soon" said Lithia
Welcome all to the everlasting all time low
Please put your hands together
For the ever-failing one man show:
Domino!
Chiaia was looking at Jin, thinking about the times he and her sister were together, then something just clicked her like the cord she made for Kenshi…
"He knew who she was the whole time"
Ladies
And broken gentlemen,
The undisputed champ
Of misery
Oh and in this corner
We find his challenger
The pride of utopia
The greatest thing ever
Six of Mechanoids, standing near the Mechalord, protecting it and Doll while the Battlemaster and Kenshi were standing side by side, getting in position, ready for their next strike.
"Kenshi…"
"Yeah?"
"I sense that they are gonna split and attack at different directions…go at the Force Field, protect the students at all costs"
"But what about you?"
"Don't worry about me, I can handle the three on my side. In 3…2…1…NOW!"
Oh, oh oh oh oh Ohh oh oh oh
Ha ha haha hahahaha
[x2]
Kenshi and Jin went to two directions as Kenshi defended the force field while taking on one armed and two unarmed Mechanoids. The Battlemaster however was having trouble as he was deflecting the blasts coming from the other two armed Mechanoid but could get anytime to dodge the unarmed Mechanoid's fist.
"Oh Goddamn it-" he raised his arms in a X sign as his MBA glowed but he was plowed into the concrete of the stands (on the opposite side).
If you could recall one moment of your past that defined you to be
That made you the man we've come to love, all of the above
"JIN!" Lithia screamed
Everyone (Including Doll) who saw it was shocked and scared cause of the hit from the Mechanoid might've actually killed him.
This disaster binds us absolute
A thousand lies
You tell yourself
That no one ever loved you right
Ooh, but I would do anything for you
The question fits the question mark
Your signals crossed, your message lost!
Haha!
"NOW YOU DONE DID IT YOU BASTARDS!" Wahan fired the missiles, going through the force field and hit the unarmed Mechanoid, knocking it away but leaving her self open for the Mechanoids to blast her to bit.
The two Mechanoids blasted at the opened spot, trying to kill the Mechamechic but it stopped as it disappeared and the force field recovered, keeping Wahanly safe.
"How did those blasts-" Before Wahan could say anything else, she saw the rubble where the Battlemaster was plowed into…
Everyone then see a glowing green light was coming from the rubble in the stands as it bursted. They thought that they would see Jin Kisaki coming out of the rubble but…
(Announcer Part muted)
"Whoa, look at Jin's arms!" said Gryino
They saw his arms which were made from Advanced Sacred Mechanoid Technology, they then saw see the Battlemaster in a grey hooded clothing.
"I don't understand…Is Jin actually a Machine?!" said Aura
"No…he isn't…" said Wahanly
"But why is he-"
"Lithia, to tell you the truth, he wasn't Jin to begin with when you met him"
"Say what?!" The Council President was shocked at what the MechaMechanic just said, but now looks across from the stands and wonders who he actually is.
Chiaia then remembered from everything that she knew that gave her many hints, but the big hint was "If you my secrets right now, they would be way too much for you to handle"
"Then that means that he's…"
La la la, la la la la! [x4]
The Battlemaster ripped off the hood to everyone's complete shock. They see his face mostly covered by his black hair blowing in the wind.
"It can't be…" Doll didn't want to think who she thought it would be…
This wall won't hold forever
Your time has come, it's now or never
We made our beds to lie in them proud, proud of our great mistakes
This warring knife, the flash of it's blade, turn about-face
The Battlemaster wiped the blood that was dripping from his face with the hood he ripped off and threw it away. He sees his humanoid hand as he clutches it and then sees the three Mechanoids trying to surround him. The Battlemaster then said "Time to get serious"
I implore you, brother
Don't walk away, don't walk away from me
'Cause' this is our war
He instantly appeared behind one of the armed Mechanoids, sliced off the waist with his arms that transformed into a blade. Came at the unarmed Mechanoid that plowed him, the Battlemaster's shoes glowed green, kicked the Mechanoid to the pillars, burying the Mechamaster in them. Using one of the BFP to blast and destroy the another armed Mechanoid's gun, he then turned his other arm into a cannon blaster and blasted the top of the mechanoid off, leaving it inoperable.
One by one, we are together, we fall together!
One by one, we are together, we fall together!
Now my brother
Don't be afraid
We are together, we are together!
The last armed Mechanoid from the other side was blasting at the Battlemaster as he switched one of the BFP into a laser sword, deflecting the blast, coming straight at him as Kenshi kicked the armed Mechanoid at him to slice it apart and kicked the core out of the Colosseum. The last two unarmed Mechanoids tried to double-team Kenshi, but he kicked one of them back, landed seven hits then sweep kick as the Battlemaster roundhouse kick from the top of the Mechanoid's head, flipping the machine in the air for the Battlemaster to teleport and kick it at its partner, piling them on top of each other, blasting them 6 times, putting them out for good.
Brother!
We are together! We fall together!
What was now left in the way was Doll in her Mechalord as it was moving again, the Masaki brothers stood side by side.
Kenshi in his White Mechanoid took fighting position, The Battlemaster took a different fighting form and then had one of the BFP aimed at the MechaGuardian.
Doll then saw his face through the hair and immediately recognized that it was him, the same person she fell in love with, the same person she betrayed in Shtrayu and thought she never see again…she now knows that Jin Kisaki this whole time was in fact Satoshi.
The other girls (besides Maria, Wahanly, Lashara, Yukine and Flora) also now knows who he actually is.
Satoshi then said "You let this happen"

Coheed and Cambria: Domino the Destitute
BlackMotor: Some of you readers might not know this but…right now I'm currently trying to make a video game for Funimation Entertainment and the AIC (Anime International Company). The game I'm making is…THIS STORY ITSELF! This story will be the complete remake of Anime Ova known as Tenchi Muyo: War on Geminar. Already send my proposal to Mr Masaki Kajishima (Owner of The Tenchi Muyo Franchise) and Mr Hiroyuki, also been talking to the voice actors of Funimation who played the part of the series, some of them said they would consider it but right now I'm waiting for the big okay from Kajishima and Hiroyuki. It's gonna be a lot of work, the paperwork, negotiations and most importantly the money. But I'm gonna do it and set the bars high to see what risk it will take on the world. All the chapters you've read up until now is Part 1, And I still got a long way to go. I'll try to get back on the other Fanfiction (even though some of you might hate it) and see if I can find other ideas of Fanfiction maybe like: Tales of Vesperia, Pokémon, or something else… But right now, the hype machine known as…Project Two Saints is currently in the mix… If it doesn't work out, I'll keep on continuing this story irregardless… Hope you enjoy this chapter, send a review, share this story with your friends. Till next time folks, keep on Chillin'!
Next Time: The Sacred Battlemaster: Satoshi Lee Masaki
