Return of the Evil Choujin
Seventh Arc part 3: Illegally Legal Tournament
Neil and the others had returned to the mansion with the doctor following them. Neil froze and quickly asked, "Do you honestly have a life outside of us?"
The doctor positioned his glasses in a serious manner, gave them a very serious look and then hung his head low and said, "No, not really."
Then he came into the room and examined her saying, "Oh, that fall did no extra damage to her. She'll be walking tomorrow!"
"That's good news," Neil said as he sat by Jasmine in her bed and said, "I won, Jasmine. I defeated the bastard who did this to you."
Jasmine slowly opened her eyes upon hearing this and said, "Thank you, Neil, but I don't care about revenge. Say, who's hungry?"
The doctor freaked out and said, "Whoa, don't move from your spot just yet. That you walking tomorrow is only if you don't have any of your accidents again. If you walk on your own, I may have to add another day to that. With that, I am off to watch lesbians make out on the wrestling channel!"
"That guy has issues," Neil said as he said, "Let's all have some Karubi Don. You guys might actually love it."
Then Neil gave everyone a bowl of Karubi Don.
As soon as everyone, including Dorykid and Alice, took down the beef and rice combo, they all gasped as their eyes filled with hearts.
Then they sang the full version of the Karubi Don song, which I'm not writing out since the full version is more than 3 minutes long.
While everyone enjoyed the nice meal, Jasmine smiled and asked, "Can I have a hug?"
Nathan, Neil and Rosaline all gave her a big hug. They were acting rather happy considering that Neil had to take on Sparkman tomorrow. Tomorrow was sure to be hell. Sparkman just seemed invincible.
Well, it was still only noon, so the friends sat around and did stuff together. They played board games, in which Neil beat up Dorykid for supposed cheating, and then they played cards where Alice won every round. Rosaline also grew plants, which people considered boring.
Well, it was sleep time now. The hooded man stood on the roof as Nathan sat up there ready to go to sleep as usual. He turned to the hooded man and asked, "Why don't you just let Jasmine know who you are already? I kept my end of the bargain and didn't say a thing, but now I'm starting to worry about you."
The hooded man looked at Nathan and said, "In time, Nathan. I don't feel now is the right time to let the world know who I am."
A few hours passed and it was finally morning in Osaka. Neil got up and noticed that the others were still asleep.
He went into the kitchen to find Nathan. He then smiled as Nathan asked, "Do you know a way to beat him?"
Neil nodded and said, "I slept on it, and finally came up with a winning strategy. He'll never beat me with my secret weapon on my side!"
Nathan watched Neil leave the house towards the arena and thought, 'Wow, he sure is dedicated to this.'
Then he gasped and shouted, "I should wake up the others so they can see his match! He only gets an hour before it starts!"
Then he ran into Jasmines room and shouted, "JASMINE, ROSALINE, WAKE UP!"
Meanwhile, at the arena, Yoshigai sat at his desk and said, "Well, today is a big day. Neil goes up against Sparkman. Well, these two are busy preparing for an hour before the match begins."
The others awoke and now Jasmine could walk again. This was a very big day and there was no way anyone was going to miss this match.
Everyone soon arrived at the ring just as Sparkman entered. He did a few poses for the booing crowd and even blew kisses to them.
"Oi, I do hope he loses," Kazuo said, "He's getting sparks in my glasses."
"What's taking Neil so long anyway?" Dorykid asked as Nathan pointed to an opening door and said, "There he is!"
A bright light flashes as Neil emerged, looking as if he was wearing some kind of armor to protect himself from the electricity. Then, the light faded as the cheering turned into awkward stares.
"What are you doing?" Rosaline asked as Neil said, "I dressed myself up in this awesome rubber armor! It will give me immunity to all electric attacks."
"You look ridiculous," Dorykid said as the audience agreed, but Nathan turned to them, scowled and said, "Shut up! Don't you see the brilliance to this plan? By wearing rubber, Neil is more than likely to be immune to all of Sparkman's attacks, and wrestling has no dress code, if I'm not mistaken!"
"He's right," Yoshigai said, "Rubber is perfectly acceptable."
Neil leapt into the ring as Sparkman grinned and said, "Good to finally see a smart opponent in this tournament. Still, I can hurt you without using electricity, don't forget. This ridiculous feminine look may make you strong against electricity, but I'm going to find a way around it, that's a promise."
The fight began as Neil grabbed onto Sparkman's arms. Unlike those before him, he really felt nothing as he held Sparkman over his head and slammed him into the mat. So far it was going well.
The crowd was roaring with cheers. Neil may have looked silly, but he was the first one to actually land the first blow on that monstrosity. He then took advantage of Sparkman's position on the ground and started to bend his knee.
Sparkman grinned and said, "You were smart to pick this outfit to battle me with, but it won't allow you easy victory. Rubber may protect you from my electricity, but not only can I still hurt you with wrestling techniques, but the rubber also weakens your attack strength with the special cushioning it provides."
With that, Sparkman got out of the hold and grabbed onto Neil, delivering a fierce power bomb. Neil was ready to react just when his face started to turn blue.
"Oh no!" Nathan spat, "I should have figured as much! There are no air holes in the part of the suit that protects his head!"
Neil had to admit that he could have planned this through. The thing he wore over his head let in no air whatsoever, so he was suffocating under the pressure of it and had no choice but to toss it out the ring as he breathed heavily.
Sparkman seized this opportunity and clutched onto Neil's face, sending massive volts of electricity down his spine.
"You should have let yourself suffocate to death," Sparkman said as Yoshigai watched in agony and shouted, "WHAT CAN NEIL DO?"
Kazuo whacked him over the head and said, "The rest of Neil's body is still protected, so he can still use attacks."
Neil quickly clutched onto Sparkman's hand and twisted it as Sparkman let go and then he rammed himself into Sparkman, knocking him onto the ground. Then he threw him into the air, leapt up after him, flipped him upside down and shouted, "FULL MOON DROP!" slamming him hard into the mat.
Back on Kinniku Planet, a new Choujin had arrived and a bear walked out. He was ready to introduce himself as one of the second generation Choujin delivered a kick sending him flying and said, "He doesn't work for us."
As Sparkman recovered from that last attack, he was ready to strike just as a bear fell on top of him. Sparkman fell to the ground and was damage by the weight, but the bear soon died from the electric shock and turned into... a fried chicken?
"That was just weird..." Neil said as Sparkman emerged from the ground and said, "You are truly a pain in the ass, but I can still beat you!"
Then he pointed it finger at Neil, ran right into him and forced his finger into Neil's chest shouting, "SHORT CIRCUIT!"
Surprisingly, Neil actually felt pain. Everyone stared and wondered why when they noticed a hole had been created in the rubber suit and now the whole thing fell off as Neil fell to the ground and supported himself with his knees.
Jasmine stared at this, a tear rolling down her eyes as she sniffed and cried, "NEIL, GET UP AND DEFEAT HIM! YOU CAN DO IT!"
Neil heard the word, but that last attack dealt a lot. He had fallen to the ground and thought, 'Shut up, I just want to sleep.'
Then he started to have nightmares of being struck by lightning all day. He cowered in a corner and said, "Stop hitting me!" but the lightning wouldn't stop. Then his father took in the next bolt and said, "Come on, son, it's just lightning!"
Then Neil found himself standing on his two feet somehow ignoring all the pain in his body. He glared at Sparkman and shouted, "YOU'RE GOING TO LOSE!" Then he charged at Sparkman at blinding speed with his claws out and shouted, "WOLF FANG MIRACLE FINISHER!"
Unlike his usual Wolf Fang attack, this one was different. His claws started to glow a flashing light as he rammed them into Sparkman. Sparkman ducked so Neil would take in damage instead, but for some reason, the electricity had no effect as Neil's claw passed through him and he fell to the ground in defeat.
Neil then stared at his unconscious body as Yoshigai announced him the winner and Neil passed out. Nathan caught him and brought him out of the ring. Osaka was once again safe.
"Good job, Neil!" Jasmine shouted as she hugged him lightly, then she held Neil over her shoulders and said, "Let's go home."
Suddenly, Sparkman rose from his position and shouted, "YOU MAY HAVE SAVED OSAKA, BUT I'M STILL GOING TO KILL YOU!"
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a man with a hood jumped out of the shadows and knocked him out for good.
Neil and Dorykid both stared and asked, "Who the hell are you and where do you keep coming from?"
Nathan just stayed quiet and looked back and forth. Then he sighed and said, "Tell them already."
The hooded figure removed his hood to reveal a young man with long wavy hair similar to Jasmines, only straighter to give it more of a masculine look. He also has blue eyes and a very handsome face. Along with that were also his T-shirt and his pants which could be seen with the hood on, so that's insignificant.
"I am Jonus," the man, who was actually a young 16-year old, "Jasmine, I hope you were okay. It's nice to see you safe and alive again, older sister!"
Then he hugged her with a smile on his face and shouted, "I'm sorry I had to hide in the shadows! I didn't want you to know that I followed you to Earth!"
Dorykid stared and asked, "Jasmine isn't the last of her kind?" as Neil spat, "She has a BROTHER?" and Rosaline said, "I think I like men now..."
"I had an older brother?" Jasmine asked, then she hugged him and shouted, "I'M SO HAPPY!"
"You're older than me by one year," the boy said, then he turned to Neil and said, "Thanks for caring about her, but seriously, start protecting her from Rosaline. I'm tired of doing that."
Neil just blinked and thought, 'What's wrong with Rosaline,' then he asked the most important question that came to mind, "Why did you attack me when you first met me?"
The boy shook his head and said, "I've been watching over my sister so I could protect her! I saw what you were doing to her! I just decided to give you a bit of a punishment but I'm fine with it now that I've already beaten you up once. I'm Jonus."
"Say, Jonus," Jasmine asked, "do you remember what mom looked like?"
Jonus nodded and said, "She looked a lot like you, actually. Only she had a ponytail that she was born with for some reason. She also had glowing green eyes and wore the most revealing clothes, like the ones you wear in battle. It's a tradition in our family to always fight in extremely revealing clothing if you're female, that's why I sent you that revealing battle outfit. If you don't wear those in battle, mother would shake her head wondering if you really were her daughter."
Neil nodded and said, "I can agree with that logic," as Nathan glared and asked, "Why did your voice sound different when your hood was on?"
Jonus blinked and said, "Ah, I know what you're talking about! You must mean my spirit. My spirit makes me sound like a 22-year old. Truthfully, I can't really fight that well without my spirit, Morrison by my side. My normal skill is weak, but you Jasmine, you can sometimes fight without Dolce's help! I'm so impressed!"
Dolce was the only one who could see Morrison right now as she smiled and asked, "What have you been up to, Morrison?"
Morrison just thought for a moment and said, "Well, recently, I kicked the crap out of that Sparkman Guy. What more do you need? But seriously, it's nice to see you again, sister."
Then he smiled and hugged Dolce. Jonus felt this and shouted, "YOU COME BACK TO INHABITTING MY BODY RIGHT NOW, YOUNG MAN!"
Morrison returned with a sad expression thinking, 'I'm older than you.'
Neil then grinned and said, "Everything is perfect again! Let's go home and enjoy some lunch!"
"Wow, it's only noon?" Nathan asked as Dorykid looked at his watch and said, "What do you know, it is."
With that, the group went back to the mansion as Neil pulled out the Karubi Don. Jonus was a bit hesitant, but everyone eventually manipulated him into eating it and he ended up enjoying it a lot.
Jasmine walked up to her brother and asked, "Jonus, what were you doing when you weren't watching me? Where were you at those times?"
"Well, I went to a nearby town to protect some people who were letting me live with them," he said, "Now all the evil in that area has been vanquished, so they're okay on their own. Also, sis, there's something you should know that I probably shouldn't tell you, but since I'm your brother it means nothing. I kinda watched you change at night."
A blush came over the girl's face, but she gave it no mind. Jonus was her brother. This wasn't such a bad thing.
Well, it was only a few minutes into the afternoon and now nobody had anything to do. Jonus then remembered something and said, "There's a Bon Festival (Buddhist festival) going on tonight! It's been a long time since I had fun. Wanna join me?"
Neil was ecstatic. He LOVED the Bon Festival, as did Dorykid, Nathan and Rosaline. Truthfully, Jonus had never been to a Bon Festival since he and his sister pretty much had the same heritage. He just wanted to see what it was like.
Well, they waited until the sky turned dark. (6 hours) Then they decided now was when the Bon Festival started, so they went down to the town square where all the women were dressed up in Kimonos and Chinese lanterns were put up. Also, there was a drum beat that everyone was dancing to. This was a custom during these festivals.
Soon enough, everyone danced around as Neil sang, "It's perfect, wonderful! Can you imagine better? This night of nights is so perfect and nothing's wrong! This show is also called Kinnikuman!"
Then Nathan sang, "You have to stop breaking the 4th wall right now. If you do, the company may have to cancel our show!"
Then they all banded together and sang, "Karubi Don has nothing on this great festival of all the greatest of festive events. You might as well come enjoy yourself because this music really helps you get into the beat."
Then Neil laughed and finished with, "I can't think of any better, than to spend this night with my friends! This is a great night that only comes occasionally! This is the wonderful Japanese Ondo!"
Jasmine was having so much fun when she remembered something important and asked, "Nathan, can I talk to you privately?"
Nathan came over to where Jasmine was and asked, "What do you want?" as Neil and Dorykid started to have an eating war in the background and Alice and Jonus just stood there completely silent.
Jasmine blushed and said, "Don't tell anyone this, but…" and stopped midway to kiss Nathan on the cheek. Then she looked down in embarrassment.
Nathan blushed, but didn't pay it much mind since he didn't feel it, you know, since he wore a mask all the time. He decided to lift up the mask and gave her a small peck with his lips then put the mask back down over his face.
He sighed and said, "Sorry, Jasmine, I'm not really interested. It's not that I don't like you. Heck, I was originally gonna do that the second I saw you. It's just that... you and Neil would make a much better couple! Yeah..."
Then he went back to watch the eating contest. Neil had easily triumphed over Dorykid who threw up from eating too much.
Jasmine took in these very words and walked up to Neil, hugging him and giving him a peck on the cheek saying, "It's time to go home now."
Neil agreed that now was the time for sleep. He also blushed after receiving the kiss.
Well, everyone was now off to sleep. Nathan and Jonus sat on the roof once again.
"Make sure to tell the others this," Jonus said, "I'm going off to protect other cities in Japan. I hope you all can manage without me."
"Man, you just have no time for your sister," Nathan said, "I'll tell her tomorrow morning. Well, good luck with that, anyway."
Eighth Arc: A Nice Trip to the Museum
Jasmine awoke the next morning and stretched. Then she walked downstairs for some breakfast.
Nathan was already up and saw Jasmine. He rubbed the back of his neck and said, "Sorry, Jasmine, your brother took off. He's gone out to protect other cities. I hope you can manage without him."
"Okay," Jasmine said, taking it rather well, "Let's eat breakfast now!"
Nathan agreed and said, "I'll make breakfast if that's okay."
Then he whipped everyone up some scrambled eggs as Neil and Rosaline finally awoke. Rosaline was surprised when she woke up touching Neil's crotch, so she freaked and fell out of bed.
Neil just blinked and said, "You're not my type," as Rosaline shouted, "Wait, I didn't mean to do that! I would never touch a man's crotch on purpose!"
Neil glared and said, "Prove it," as Rosaline gulped and quickly whispered in his ear, "I'm a lesbian. I don't do guys."
Then she left as Neil stared with wide eyes and said, "That's why I'm supposed to protect Jasmine from her."
Then he made his way into the kitchen.
Jasmine noticed the two entering and said, "Good morning, Neil and Rosaline."
Neil and Rosaline both said good morning and ate the eggs in front of them. Neil beamed and asked, "Who made this magical little meal?"
Nathan beamed and said, "Guilty as charged."
Then Neil pulled Jasmine out of the kitchen and said, "Listen, Jasmine, I gotta warn you about Rosaline. I just found out that she's a lesbian and she's been crushing on you since she met you."
Jasmine just stared, wide-eyed and passed out due to the shock of what she had just heard. Never had she expected that Rosaline had been crushing on her even with all the hints she'd received.
Rosaline and Nathan ran over to her and shouted, "WHAT HAPPENED?" as Neil said, "I told her you were a lesbian."
Nathan stared at Rosaline who glanced back and said, "Don't look so surprised."
"It's not that," Nathan said, "It's just that you knew Jasmine was straight, right?"
Rosaline sighed and said, "I know but SHE'S SO CUTE!"
"You know," Neil said, "I heard that most lesbians in the world are cuter than her... okay, so she's a bad example because she really is the cutest in the universe. Anyway, please stop crushing on her, okay?"
Rosaline sighed and said, "Alright."
Then Neil shook Jasmine and said, "It's okay, she's not interested in you anymore."
Jasmine simply awoke after hearing that and said, "I must have been dreaming. Let's have pancakes."
Yep, denial was the solution to all of life's problems.
Neil ran into the kitchen excitedly. He always thought Jasmine Cakes were the best! Meanwhile Rosaline sighed and said, "It's best she doesn't know. I at least want us to still be friends."
Nathan laughed and said, "Yep, denial solves everything. Well, that's what I told myself when I said I didn't need help. Now I'm getting help from you people."
After breakfast, Nathan turned to everyone and said, "I wanna check out the museum. Wanna come?"
Neil couldn't believe he had been dragged into this. If there was anything he hated more than plays, it was museums. But he had to accept this.
Dorykid and Alice decided to stay home today, so they were out of the picture.
Anyway, the museum was boring to Neil, but everyone else seemed to like every single painting and sculpture. One sculpture in particular was of a titan. This one was quite impressive because it was painted to actually look just like a real person.
As the group passed it, the sculpture started to move. Then he started to destroy some of the artwork as Nathan gasped and shouted, "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?"
Then the statue pinned Nathan to the ground as a ring showed up and two bystanders admiring a painting turned their eyes away from it and jumped into the announcer's booth and said, "Welcome to yet another exciting match!"
Nathan groaned and tried to get up, but he was trapped on the ground.
"Come on, Nathan!" Neil shouted, "Get that thing off of you!"
Nathan's arms came out from underneath the statue as he grasped onto its arms and held it above his head. Then he threw it against the mat and elbowed it while it was still on the ground, bending its legs.
While everyone watched this, Jasmine thought she saw something move and decided to follow it.
Neil and Rosaline were busy watching the match when Jasmine left. Rosaline was the first to notice and said, "Neil, Jasmine left."
Neil freaked out and ran to find her, but ended up getting lost and shouting, "I HATE MUSEUMS!"
Meanwhile, Nathan was still bending the titan's leg when the statue flipped over, knocking him off its back and clutched onto him, delivering a suplex.
"This is bad," Yoshigai said, "It seems as if that statue has no feeling regardless of being alive. This may pose as a problem."
Jasmine continued to follow the strange figure as she ran into a statue, which she had to admit was handsome.
Nathan recovered only to be picked up as the statue tossed him into the air, grabbed onto his legs and piledrived him into the ground.
Meanwhile, Neil was looking for a way out of this maze as he heard something move. He turned around and saw a very realistic statue of a minotaur, but decided it was nothing. But, when he turned around, the statue came to life and pinned him to the ground.
Something tapped Jasmine's shoulder. Jasmine was soon screaming when the person responsible had pinned her to the ground. Then she felt something touch her butt.
"GET OFF ME YOU PERV!" she shouted, blushing mad.
Neil was soon tangling with this statue and soon was thrown into a model of a Roman coliseum. He just looked around and thought, 'This is too ironic.'
Then the minotaur pounced at him and elbowed him in the neck, putting him on the ground in a choke hold. Neil grabbed onto its hands and held it above his head throwing him onto the ground. Then he wrapped his arms around its arms and delivered an advanced technique that involved him slamming it behind his back.
As the minotaur recovered from the attack, Neil gasped as a bunch of lion statues emerged out of the model doors and started to attack Neil. Neil was not to be beaten by lions, so he picked one up by its paw, swung it at the other lion, completely breaking its face off thus killing it then threw the other lion statue into the minotaur statue, breaking the lion into pieces and putting a crack on the minotaur's chest.
Meanwhile, Nathan was having more problems as he was the one having his knees bent. He soon slipped out of it and delivered 2 fierce kicks to the titan's chest then threw him up into the air. Then, positioning his body so he was almost wresting underneath the titan, he fell towards the ground and shouted, "BIG BEN BASH!" thus slamming his body and the titan against the ground and creating small cracks.
Jasmine delivered a fierce kick to the pervert's face knocking him off of her as the man laughed and said, "I thought I was handsome. My name's Maverick. Nice to meet you, hottie."
Then he started to seduce her, but that ended when Jasmine delivered a fierce punch to his face shouting, "METEOR FIST!"
Nathan was breathing pretty heavily after that, but was shocked to see the statue still moving even with its cracks. The statue wrapped its arms around Nathan and started to squeeze tightly.
Back in the coliseum, Neil had finally gotten the disadvantage back as the minotaur threw him into the air and bunted his horns against Neil's back. Then he started to juggle Neil through the air with his horns, sending Neil in one direction and running into that spot just to send Neil flying the other way. Neil was trapped and had no idea how to land. A few more hits and he would lose.
"That hurt," Maverick groaned feeling his broken face, "I guess that's alright."
Then he grabbed onto Jasmine, touching her stomach lightly and asking, "How about a kiss before I kill you?"
"NO WAY!" Jasmine retorted shouting, "HEAD SHATTER!" and hit him hard in the forehead.
