Chapter ten is here and as promise it will be longer. Enjoy my children.
Wind vs. Wolf
Jump City Mall
"I hate shopping in the mall" said a tired Isamu sitting down on the bench in the middle of the mall putting the shopping bags next to him. Isamu had spent the last three hours at the mall with his sister Hikari, his friend's starfire and raven. The girls except for raven decided to let Isamu carry their bags since they were in the mall. Raven volunteer to assist Isamu by carrying four of the twelve bags Isamu was force to carry.
"Hey Isamu me and starfire are going to check out a few more stores, so if we buy some more stuff you wouldn't mind carrying them for you friend and your little sister right" said Hikari.
"If you bring back anything I will kill you" said Isamu.
"Ooooh just for saying something bad horrible to your only sister I'm not going to give you this soda I bought for you" said Hikari holding the soda.
"Just go I want to rest a little before you get back" said Isamu leaning his head back.
"Friend raven do you want to come with Hikari and I to do more of the shopping?" asked starfire.
"Uh no thanks star I think I'll just stay here till you get back" said raven.
Hikari knew what raven wanted to do. "Hey star lets go and leave these two alone while we go and buy some more clothes" said Hikari giving starfire the idea of what raven wanted to do.
"Oh of course let us go and do more of the shopping Hikari" said starfire.
The two girls left leaving Isamu and raven together. Raven knew Isamu was tired from this morning training with robin again and coming to the mall and carrying all of those bags. She went over to a nearby vending machine and got Isamu a soda. "Isamu here I thought you might be thirsty" said raven giving Isamu the soda.
"Thanks Rae" said Isamu opening the soda and drinking all of it.
"Wow you were really thirsty" said raven.
"Yeah I was, after what I went through today I guess I deserved this thanks again Raven" said Isamu.
"No problem…so tomorrow is your birthday how old will you be tomorrow?" asked raven.
"I think I'll be nineteen years old…wow I can believe I'll be that much old tomorrow, so what about you my dear how old are you?" asked Isamu.
"I'm eighteen years old" said raven.
"Wow your eighteen years old, I thought you were younger considering how short you are" said Isamu.
"I'm not that short Isamu"
"Yeah you are, but don't fret my dear for short people have been known to be very cute" said Isamu.
Raven didn't say a word she got off the bench and then used her powers to break the legs of the bench next to Isamu causing him to fall with the bags landing on him. Isamu looked up and saw raven laughing a bit. "And I may have forgotten how vicious short people can be" said Isamu rubbing his head.
Raven helped Isamu up and fixed the bench. "So you promise your not going to call me short again" asked raven.
"I can't promise you that, but I'll try I take it you want me to promise not to call you cute as well" said Isamu.
Raven blush a little when Isamu called her cute, she was glad she had her hood up when he did. He thinks I'm cute, those that mean he likes me or is he just playing around.
"Uh raven hello you there?" asked Isamu wondering what was on raven's mind.
Raven snapped out of her thoughts. "Oh sorry what were you saying" said raven.
"Well I was going to ask if you wanted me to stop saying the cute part, but now I was going to say do you want to head back to the tower and leave star and Hikari before they get back" said Isamu.
"Are you sure you want to do that, I mean after all Hikari is your sister" said raven.
"True but if they come back and force me to carry one more bag I will lose it…plus I'm hungry I haven't eaten breakfast" said Isamu.
"Well I guess so, but you do realize you'll get in trouble with your sister if you leave" said raven.
"Eh what's the worst she can do, now come on before they get back" said Isamu. Raven and Isamu grabbed the bags and headed out the mall.
A few minutes later Hikari and starfire returned with about ten more bags and headed back with the others. When they got to the bench where they last saw Isamu and raven they found no one there.
"Their gone…finally I thought he would never leave star think we can carry all of these decorations back to the tower without Isamu noticing?" asked Hikari.
"I think so, I can hide them in my room before tomorrow" said starfire.
"Good tonight once Isamu's asleep we will get the decorations ready, then once he wakes up its party time" said Hikari.
Titans tower
After finishing breakfast and installing the new windows and TV in the living room, cyborg and beastboy challenged robin and Isamu to some video games which the duo accepted. Raven was waiting for Hikari and starfire to return to talk about tomorrow; as soon as the girls came back they put everything in starfire's room and began to talk about tomorrow.
"Okay so beastboy and cyborg are in charge of the food, robin and starfire are in charge of the decorations, and raven is in charge of keeping Isamu away from the living room until the party is ready for tomorrow"
"Wait what are you going to do then?" said raven.
"Well I'm going to keep any bad guys from ruining the part. So tonight I am going to make sure there are no troubles in the city so that we can have a normal birthday tomorrow" said Hikari.
"Okay well how am I supposed to keep him busy all day?" asked raven.
"Well I was thinking maybe you should tell him well how you feel about him" said Hikari.
"I agree raven, tell him tonight and that will give us time to put up everything" said starfire.
"Telling him won't be easy for me…but I'll try" said raven.
"Good now lets get back to the others and…" Hikari stopped when she sensed felt something.
"Hikari what's wrong are you okay?" asked starfire.
"I sense a powerful spiritual pressure approaching. I never felt anything like this before" said Hikari. Just then the girls heard an explosion coming from the living room. The girls headed towards the room and saw in pieces. "Isamu, guys where are you?" shouted Hikari.
"Friends where have you gone?" shouted starfire.
Then the girls heard some noise coming from the kitchen. It was beastboy and cyborg. "Friends you are unharmed" said starfire.
"Where's robin and Isamu?" asked raven.
"Their fighting that weird blond guy I think on the roof" said beastboy pointing outside.
"Hikari stay here with the others, star lets go" said raven. Starfire nodded and followed her teammate outside to assist their friends.
Outside the tower Isamu and robin were on the roof of the tower staring down the man who attacked them a minute ago. He had blond hair and gray eyes; and he appeared to be six foot tall. He wore a white sleeveless shirt with a brown vest; he had blue jeans, and white shoes.
"So robin I take it you've never seen this guy before?" asked Isamu with his sword in his right hand.
"I'm sure, you sure you've never seen this guy before either Isamu?" asked robin with his staff in his other hand.
"He has powerful spiritual energy, but sorry to say no I don't. So blondie mind telling us your name" said Isamu.
"Certainly the name is Yemon I am on of the big four of the Black wolf clan. I have come under orders to destroy just one person…you Isamu Ishida" said Yemon taking out his sword.
"You know my name huh, I guess my time with the titans has made me a bit famous" said Isamu.
"Actually I've known your name from my master who has had his eye on you for some time Isamu" said Yemon.
"Who do you work for Yemon talk?" shouted robin.
"Patients boy I will tell you who I work with Dick Grayson" said Yemon.
Robin was shocked that this guy knew who he was. "How-how do you know who I am?" said robin.
"You think my master has his eyes on just one person. He has been very interested in the young talent you have put together Dick, in fact I know your entire friends true name. From your girlfriend Kory, cyborg Victor Stone, beastboy Garfield Logan, and the little witch raven's true name is Rachel Roth" said Yemon.
Isamu stood there amazed that this guy knew everyone's true name, except him. "Wait a minute robin how come this guy knew all of your true names and you guys never told me?" said Isamu almost sounding left out that his friends never told him his true name.
"First of all Isamu that's the whole concept of having a secret identity, and second were in the middle of a fight here" said robin.
"I just wished you guys told me that's all damn I thought we were…"Isamu stopped when Yemon appeared behind Isamu and turned clockwise with his sword. Isamu recognized this attacked and block the sword from hitting him.
Isamu and Yemon backed off from each other and hold their position. Robin barley saw Yemon coming up from behind Isamu. This guy must be as fast as Isamu, amazing I didn't even see him come from behind Isamu.
"Interesting I see you recognized that move before. Tell me where did you see it before Isamu?" asked Yemon.
"I learned it after I paid a visit to the soul society with my master. An old friend of his named Byakuya Kuchiki showed me this move. You combine flash step with a spin to quickly move behind the enemy, followed by a combination of two quick thrusts to destroy the opponents soul chain and soul sleep in one move, thus destroying their powers" said Isamu.
"I see you recognized the move, tell me ever wonder how he came up with that technique" said Yemon.
"Don't know, don't care so why don't you just leave right now or else" said Isamu.
"Sorry not going to happened huh" said Yemon as he turned around and saw flying disc hitting him causing him to be frozen.
"Isamu" shouted raven who came from the tower with starfire.
"Raven, starfire is everyone okay down there?" asked robin.
"Beastboy and cyborg are fine, their with Hikari. Mind telling us who that guy is" said raven pointing at the frozen Yemon.
"Long story short guys name is Yemon and apparently he came here to kill me" said Isamu.
"Why would he want to kill you Isamu?" said starfire.
"I don't know, why anyone would need a reason to kill someone in this time of century" said Isamu.
Just then the ice began to crack and Yemon broke free of the ice. "You know bird boy its very rude interrupting someone when their talking" said Yemon wiping the ice of his shoulder.
"Really so attacking us while we were relaxing is not rude" said robin.
"Well I'm not exactly a nice guy so being polite isn't my thing. But lets face it the ladies like a guy who is a bad boy isn't that right my dears" said Yemon looking at both raven and starfire.
Isamu and robin stood before the girls knowing what Yemon meant. "Leave them out of this fight Yemon if its me you want I'll fight you" said Isamu.
" Hmmm sorry Isamu your right I did come here to fight you so let us begin but I doubt you would want to fight where you could get your friends hurt so lets go fight over there near that oil rig" said Yemon.
"Fine let's go" said Isamu. Yemon took off and headed towards the oil rig.
"Isamu let us go with you, your going to need back up" said robin.
"No robin this guy is strong and I don't want my friends to get hurt, just leave it to me okay" said Isamu.
"Are you sure you do not require assistance?" asked starfire.
"I'm sure this guy has nothing on me" said Isamu.
"Fine but be carful we'll be nearby if you need us" said robin as he and star headed down to the living room.
"Isamu be careful okay" said raven.
"Don't worry raven I got this" said Isamu.
"I'm serious promise me you'll come back to me alive" said raven. It was there raven realized what she said and blushed a little.
Isamu heard the last part and knew what raven meant.
"I mean you know come back alive to us in one piece because your sister loves you, I love you…well as a friend I mean" said raven. Isamu stopped her when he put his hand on her shoulder and did something that surprise raven he kissed her. Raven's eye widen is shock, but later closed them and kissed him right back.
They stopped kissing and raven was still blushing after kissing Isamu. "I love you too raven and I promise to come back to you" said Isamu as he took off after Yemon.
Raven stood on the roof watching Isamu take off. The feelings in her continued to grow, she felt this way before but never thought she would again. She only hoped Isamu would come back soon.
Oil rig
Yemon arrived first on the oil rig and looked around to make sure no one would get involve in his fight against Isamu. It seems the rig has been abandon for some time which was fine with Yemon. Isamu arrived a minute later and looked ready to fight.
"Well Isamu what took ya, saying goodbye to your ugly witch" said Yemon.
"Raven's no witch and the only one saying goodbye is you" said Isamu taking out his sword.
"Ooooh sorry didn't mean to insult your girlfriend Isamu so lets get down to business" said Yemon taking out his sword as well. It was a katana, its shape and size was the same as Isamu's.
"Let me guess your flash step move, able to sense spiritual energy, and your sword is a katana let me guess you a soul reaper too aren't you?" asked Isamu.
"Please I'm more than a weak soul reaper, see boy I'm something much worse watch blow thy enemy away Kami kūki no (god of air). Yemon's sword disappeared into Yemon, and then a small gust of air formed in Yemon's hand making it look like a sword.
"Whoa that's a new trick" said Isamu who was surprise by what he was seeing.
"You haven't seen anything yet" said Yemon. Then Yemon raised his sword and in one slash a gust of wind headed towards Isamu.
Living room
"Yemon never heard that name before, you sure that's the name he told you guys?" said Hikari helping cyborg move the couch back where it was.
"We're sure, is he familiar to either one of your masters?" asked robin.
"Look robin I told you before no, if I knew something I would tell you, right raven" said Hikari who looked over at raven who was looking out the window.
"Huh sorry I was just trying to sense who was winning that's all" said raven.
Just then the titans heard an explosion. Hikari got up and sensed something was wrong. "Hikari what's wrong?" asked cyborg.
"Its Isamu I think he's hurt" said Hikari.
Oil rig
Part of the oil rig was destroyed by the attacked from Yemon. Parts that weren't destroyed had huge caches on the walls and floors. Isamu escape the attack barley but suffered some scratches to his right arm and part of his right leg. Isamu was glad he used flash step otherwise the attack would have cause him serious damage.
Yemon looked up smiling at what he did. "What's the matter soul reaper I thought you were going to make me go away? I guess you were wrong weren't you" said Yemon.
"Hey it's not over yet, I have to admit your air attack is impressive. But believe me it's nothing compare to mine Howl Shiroi ōkami (white wolf)" said Isamu as his sword changed into a big knife shape fang without a hilt.
"Ooooh I'm so scared what is you going to do with such a pathetic excuse of a sword?" said Yemon.
"Watch Shiroi kibatte (White fang)!" shouted Isamu as a bright white blast headed towards Yemon. Yemon used his flash step to move out of the way. The blast took out the entire platform of the oil rig.
Yemon was glad he ducked out of the way. If he didn't it would not have ended well for him. Yemon then sense someone behind him. Isamu used his flash step to sneak up behind Yemon. He swung his sword at Yemon's head, but Yemon ducked and kicked Isamu in the gut sending the boy halfway from Yemon.
Both fighters were fighting in the sky; they both looked at each other with a serious look on each others eyes. "Well I have to admit that was an interesting attack, Hakurou means white wolf huh, funny it seems to be the same as the masters zanpakuto" said Yemon.
"Huh the same what?" asked Isamu.
"Nothing forget about it, anyways I'm impress your power is stronger than I anticipated, tell me have you consider using them for hurting people instead of helping them?" asked Yemon.
"Sheesh what is it with you guys I show how strong I am to you guys and you try to make me join you because you know you can't beat me. It's like a cycle with all of you" said Isamu.
"Cant beat you, silly boy I haven't even begun to fight with my full power" said Yemon.
"What, what the hell are you talking about?" said Isamu.
"See I told you I'm not a soul reaper; see I was created to be the first ever elemental reaper. The plan was to transform a spiritual person into the element he or she is meant to be. I was born in a lab by combing my human self with the power element of air. Which means Isamu I can control the power of air, like this" said Yemon as he raised his sword once again and struck down hard. "Kūki o sakugen kōgeki (slicing air attack)!" shouted Yemon as more gust of air headed towards Isamu.
Isamu used his flash step to move out of the way of the attack. But as he did the gust of air followed him and the attack connected. Isamu covered his face with his arms. He could feel multiple sharp objects cutting him in the gust. Isamu then gathered some power and unleashed it causing the gust of air to dissipate.
"Oh dear it seems my attack didn't kill you, no matter I'm sure now you see I'm not someone to mess around with Isamu. Now then are you ready for the next round" said Yemon.
"Don't get to confident Yemon, you still haven't seen my full power just yet" said Isamu with blood coming down his arms, legs, back, chest, and a bit came down his face.
"Someone seems overly confident, but whatever its you funeral, and after I will you I will take care of your little demon witch were going to have such a fun…" Yemon was interrupted when Isamu showed up in front of him and brought down his sword. "Shiroi kibatte" said Isamu.
The blast from Isamu's attacked cut off Yemon's right arm causing him to scream in pain. Yemon backed away from Isamu and held his position. "Damn you, DAMN YOU BOY!" shouted Yemon.
Isamu kept his position; he couldn't afford to let Yemon catch him off guard again. I need to end this quick if I get hit with that attack again, there probably won't be anyway for me to get out of it.
"Boy get ready because you going to suffer dearly for what you have done" said Yemon as she lifted his air sword and began to rotate it.
Isamu didn't know what Yemon was planning but whatever it was he needed to be ready for it. Unbeknownst to Isamu something was beginning to form above him. It was vague and blurry making it hard to see or detect.
"Here it comes Kūki dōmu keimusho (air dome prison)!" shouted Yemon as the air from his sword shot out at Isamu. As Isamu was about to dodge it something appeared around him from above it seemed like a dome when the air attacked hit the dome it became solid capturing Isamu in it.
"Hey what the hell is this?" shouted Isamu.
"Like it call it your own little prison cell. It's made out of the air surrounding us. I combined my spiritual energy to make it solid. Think of it as a balloon, except this balloon cannot be popped from the inside or the outside" said Yemon as he approached Isamu.
Isamu tried to use his sword to cut through the dome but it didn't work. Then Isamu felt hot, and noticed there was no air in here.
"Oh and like every balloon it has its own air supply, as small air supply. Which means in a few minutes you will run out of air and you will die. But to quicken the pace I will make your death quick" said Yemon as he put his hand on the dome and soon just like Isamu was being attacked by miniature slicing air attacks.
Isamu began blocked the attacks from his face. But he could still feel the attacks hit him from the rest of his body. He couldn't risk either scream in pain or think about the pain he needed to find a way out. He knew what he had to do, it was risky someone could see him but he didn't care. He made promise to raven and he intended to keep it.
Before he did he felt something coming. Yemon then heard something, "Kitsune kiba (fox fang)!" Yemon moved out of the way of the attack. But as he did the attack destroyed the dome and freed Isamu.
Isamu was caught by someone who he was glad to see. It was raven and she came with his sister Hikari who was the one who attacked Yemon. "Hey ugly leave my big brother alone" said Hikari.
"Wait another one, I thought the master said there was only one soul reaper from the Ishida's" said Yemon.
"Well I guess your master was wrong, the name is Hikari Ishida and I am the little sister of Isamu Ishida, and I am the girl who's going to kill you" said Hikari.
"No Hikari…I am I'm not with him just yet" said Isamu.
"Isamu your hurt you shouldn't fight him" said raven.
"I'm fine, he may have hurt me but he didn't drain me of my power. Besides I now know all of his tricks I can beat him now" said Isamu.
Raven didn't want to let him fight. But she looked into his eyes and saw the confidence in him. She believed him, but also wanted to remind cautious. "Fine but me and Hikari are here to help, if there is sign of trouble we will get involved no matter what…understand" said raven.
"Got it…hey Hikari leave this guy to me I want to finish what I started got it" said Isamu.
"Fine just don't get too cut up, I don't think raven would like her boyfriend to have so many scares on your pretty face" said Hikari.
"Yeah don't worry I got this" said Isamu as he approached Yemon.
"Heh you should have let your sister fight me, now your sister and your girlfriend will see their love one fall before me" said Yemon.
"I see through your tricks you need time to gather the air for your attack. Air can be manipulated but it takes time to do it. That's why you couldn't attack me when I took out your arm. I was right there and you could have strike back, but you back away so that you could gather the air and attack me. Time is your flaw Yemon just like everything else time is the flaw of everyone and everything" said Isamu.
"Heh so what that doesn't mean you will beat me, your attack is nothing unless you can hit me directly. So go ahead hit me with your best attack I will just dodge it again" said Yemon.
"Okay but don't say I didn't warn you" said Isamu as he lifted his sword and closed his eyes.
Yemon saw his chance he gather the air around him and was about to attack. "Die Isamu!" shouted Yemon. The attacked headed towards Isamu. Raven wanted to help but Hikari stopped her and gave her a don't worry look, which calmed her a bit.
As the attacked almost hit Isamu he said something, "Ookami ga tenmetsu (wolf flash)! He disappeared and reappeared behind Yemon. Yemon realized what Isamu was going to do, he tried to stop him but it was too late Isamu hit Yemon with two quick thrusts to Yemon.
Yemon began to fall towards the ocean, "I can't believe it I lost...damn" whispered Yemon. But before he hit the water raven used her powers to grab him and help him to the oil rig.
Isamu, raven and Hikari are at the oil rig with Yemon sitting on the ground and laying back on the wall. "You bastard why didn't you let me fall to my death, after all I did why did you save me?" asked Yemon.
"Well even though you did try to kill me, it was also a lot of fun. I haven't fought someone like that in a long time, so thanks for the fight" said Isamu smiling after he nearly died.
"Isamu he tried to hurt us and kill you. The only reason you didn't kill him was because it was fun" said raven who couldn't believe what she was hearing.
"Oh come on raven it was fun, the only other person I ever fought hard was well against master Suzuki" said Isamu.
"Hey what about me you're saying I wasn't any fun" said Hikari.
"Nah I had to hold back on you half the time because mom always said never hit or harm a girl" said Isamu.
"You jerk I saved your life and that's all I get from you, well next time I will let you die then" said Hikari.
"HEY ISHIDA!" shouted Yemon. "I know that wasn't the only reason. Now tell me why did you save me" said Yemon.
"[Sigh] well the truth is Yemon, I don't think you're a bad guy. You didn't want to come here did you, you were force to come right" asked Isamu.
Yemon kept silence, what Isamu said was true but he knew if he said a word he would be killed.
"Don't need to hide it Yemon raven and Hikari can sense what you're feeling" said Isamu.
"Yeah it's true, I was send here, but like you said I didn't have a choice. I was created to destroy and harm people. Not really what I wanted to do, but like I said it's what I was born to do" said Yemon.
"Let me guess if you tried to leave you would die right" said raven.
"Yeah…listen Isamu I could be killed for saying this but there is something you need to know, when word gets back that I fail to defeat you my master will send another elemental reaper after you. And the next one will be stronger than me and will show no mercy" said Yemon.
"Stronger, you mean there are others like you Yemon" said Hikari,
"Yes, three more each one controls different types of elements as well. From earth, water, and fire, Isamu I know you've been holding back on me. I know you didn't show me your true power and I can't blame you if you didn't. But you cannot hold back on the other three especially the one name Tetsip" said Yemon.
"Tetsip who's that?" asked Isamu.
"He's the masters third in command; he's the master's favorite pet. But also the most powerful of the three of us, I must warn you if you fight him you cannot hold back. If you do then you will die am I clear boy" said Yemon.
"I understand thanks Yemon. I'll contact my master and have him send someone to take you somewhere safe. They'll also fix you up and you'll be as good as new…well without you powers of course but you'll be able to live a normal life" said Isamu.
"Thanks kid I guess" said Yemon as he closed his eyes to rest.
"Maybe I should stay till they come for him" said Isamu.
"Don't sweat it bro I'll keep an eye on him. Besides I think you should go take care of those wounds first before you do anything else" said Hikari.
"She's right, we also need to tell the others what happened" said raven.
"I guess so, well the good thing is this didn't happen on my birthday" said Isamu.
"I think after today you would have loved it" said raven.
"Whatever lets go, Hikari watch yourself" said Isamu.
"I know, I know just go with your girlfriend and leave" said Hikari.
"You told her or did she find out" said Isamu.
"She figured it out and told everyone" said raven.
"Wow I bet cyborg and beastboy are just waiting to tease us both about this huh" said Isamu.
"They were till your sister told them what would happened if they did, you have a defensive sister" said raven.
"Yeah I wonder where she got that from" said Isamu as he and raven headed back to the tower.
Singapore
Meanwhile in Singapore standing on an old building were two shadow figures looking over some children playing. "Their so cute aren't they Chiasa I just to take them all with me and make them my children" said a female voice.
"The last time you did that, they drowned Yuu. Now I told you not everyone can breathe underwater" said Chiasa.
"Aw but I know I can do better this time I promise" said Yuu.
"Yuu we can't keep…" Chiasa stopped when his phone began to ring. "Hello Tetsip what's up?" asked Chiasa.
"Great I take it he wants us to do a job for him again. [Sigh] when will we have our alone time?" asked Yuu.
"I understand okay bye…Yemon has failed" said Chiasa.
"What a surprise the only one who controls air has failed against a boy big shocker" said Yuu.
"Master Yamamoto wants us to go to Jump city and kill Yemon" said Chiasa.
"He's not dead, well that sounds good I have been wanting to kill that runt" said Yuu.
"Well we'll need to hurry up before the soul reapers master relocates him somewhere" said Chiasa.
"Fine let's go" said Yuu. As Yuu and Chiasa disappeared and headed to Jump City.
