It was another day in Tengoku City. The city almost looks peaceful to those who don't know the truth. One person was putting up flyers. Leona was hiding in the streets and took one of the flyers. The flyer was for a tournament and the grand prize was five-thousand dollars and a chance to meet The Five Arches. Leona took the flyer back to the base and shared it with the others.

"What do you guys think?" Leona asked.

"A tournament? What's the big deal?" Marine asked.

"We get to see guys beat each other around." Leona said. "Plus, if one of us enters and wins, we'll get five-thousand dollars."

"Not interested." Marine said.

"Me either." Shauna said.

"This does sound like it could be fun." Davis said.

"There you go." Leona said as she was glad one of them was in agreement.

"Actually, this could be beneficial." Ryoto said. "This is just the moment we've been waiting for. Davis, you have to enter and win this tournament."

"Me?" Davis said.

"Ryoto is right." Ayame said. "The winner is also able to meet The Five Arches in person. This is what Ryoto had planned. They don't know your face yet, Davis."

"I see. You need me to win and infiltrate these guys." Davis said. "Go undercover and find out their secrets. Though, I don't think they're really that big of a deal. After seeing that Loretta chick, these guys don't sound so scary."

"You shouldn't underestimate your enemies. That's the number one rule of battle." Ryoto said.

"Of course, you'll need to have your mask and Getsuga hidden away somewhere. We can't have them knowing who you really are." Ayame said. "While you're doing that, there's something I need to get."

"Hang on. Can our dope here even fight? The tournament won't allow weapons of any kind." Marine said.

"I'll be fine. Leona has given me some tips." Davis said. "You don't need to worry about me. Wait till those guys get a taste of what I can do."

"That's what I'm afraid of." Marine said. She was worried he wasn't going to have that much to give.

….

The Five Arches

"Why is this tournament being held again?" Loretta asked. The Five Arches heard about the tournament and at least one of them must be the guest of honor.

"As you know, our forces have dropped by some because of The Raiders." Kageyama said. "This should help us find suitable people to be soldiers to help us in this little war."

"I still don't see why one of us needs to go and watch?" Bolin said.

"The winner has the chance to meet all five of us and we show the best judgement. We can tell who will be a better warrior." Larok said. "Hey, Tsukuyomi, how about you go? You haven't done much of anything." Tsukuyomi just sat on a set of stairs and starring out the window. "I'm guessing that's a no."

"I'm not interested." Tsukuyomi said. They heard a knock on the door and allowed Ezelda in the door.

"It's time to go. One of you must attend and I'm here to see who it is." Ezelda said.

"Very well. I'll do it." Kageyama said. "I don't have much else I can do." He agreed to go and the two of them left.

"Tsukuyomi, is there's something that's troubling you? All you ever do is look out that window." Loretta said, but he refused to answer.

'I know it's out there. The time draws near.' Tsukuyomi said. He's waiting for someone, but who is he waiting for.

…

The Tournament

The fighting tournament has been going on. Leona and Shauna were there, but they stayed hidden with cloaks so they wouldn't be seen. Davis was doing pretty well for he is one of the finalists. He had to change his clothes around so it's not to draw suspicion.

"We've got quite the show." The announcer said. "A newcomer, Davis, has been doing well for such a young age."

"That's right. I'm winning this whole thing." Davis said as he waved to the crowd.

"I think he's enjoying himself out there." Shauna said.

"You're right and he's doing great." Leona said. Davis was having a great time, but that came to an end when he saw his next opponent was like twice his size.

"Uh oh. Looks like his opponent, Grizzle, is ready to go." The announcer said.

"You been lucky. Me smash you." Grizzle said with poor grammar.

"I take it you're dumber than you look." Davis mocked. Kageyama and Ezelda were up in the stands and had a great view. They were both impressed with how Davis was doing.

"This boy has got some lip." Kageyama said.

"Perhaps, but I'm afraid it might cost him. I don't see how he can beat someone as big as him." Ezelda said.

"You of all people should know that it's not the size of a person that matters." Kageyama said. The bell rang and the fighting was starting. It was actually a surprise to most since Davis was running. Grizzle tried to pound him, but Davis moved out of the way and kept giving hard hits to the head. Davis gave Grizzle a kick to the head like he kicked a soccer ball and it actually took out a few teeth and blood running down his nose.

"We're done here." Davis said. He gave Grizzle a powerful kick to the gut and was able to take him down.

"He's down! Davis has won!" The whole crowd cheered for him and Davis was acting like he's a superstar.

"That's right. I'm number one. Who is? I am." Davis said.

"He's letting it go to his head." Shauna said.

"Let him have his fun." Leona said.

"Impressive." Davis stopped his waving and turned around as he was met with Kageyama. "The odds seemed against you, but you were able beat all your opponents. Now, here is your reward." He reached inside his coat.

'Sweet. Five-thousand bucks is five-thousand bucks no matter how you look at it.' Davis thought as Kageyama handed him the check.

"You also get the honor of meeting all five members of The Five Arches, including myself." Kageyama said. "Come with me and I'll introduce you to the others." This is where Davis' mission starts. He looked back up to the stands to see Leona and Shauna and he could tell they were hoping for the best.

"Be careful, Davis." Shauna whispered.

"There's nothing more we can do, but wait until he comes back." Leona said.

…

Ragur's Tower

This has been the closest Davis has ever gotten behind enemy lines. Kageyama lead him through the halls and brought him to the room of The Five Arches.

"Welcome. Meet The Five Arches." Kageyama said as he opened the door and Davis met all of them. "Everyone, meet the winner. This is Davis. Davis, this is Larok, Bolin, Loretta, and at the top is Tsukuyomi."

"This guy?" Larok said as he took a good look at Davis.

"Yeah. I did. It went a little something like….this." Davis said as he grabbed Larok's arm and flipped Larock over himself and tossed him to the wall. He made it seem like he was showing off his strength, but wanted to do that since he was an enemy.

"Bold move. I respect that." Kageyama said.

"Lucky shot." Larok complained.

"Don't be a sore loser, Larok." Loretta said as she was trying to get a good look at Davis. "I'm convinced. He seems to have some skill."

"Thanks. I try my hardest." Davis said as he scratched the back of his head. Loretta changed looks on him and had a serious look on his face. "What?"

"There's just something about your voice that seems familiar." Loretta said.

"Don't bother with the pick-up lines. Your boyfriends don't stay for very long." Bolin mocked.

"Well at least I don't scare off women with my ugly mug." Loretta come backed.

"So you're admitting you have an ugly face?" Bolin said.

"Shut up." Loretta said.

"Tsukuyomi, why don't you come down and meet Davis." Kageyama said. Davis looked up to Tsukuyomi as he came down the stairs. The others never go a good look at Tsukuyomi before and there wasn't much known about him.

'So this guy is suppose to be the strongest out of all of them? He doesn't look that powerful.' Davis thought.

"Welcome. You're victory in the tournament is a splendid one, but how would you like to face a real challenge." Tsukuyomi said.

"A real challenge?" Davis questioned.

"We're about to go out to find the base of some enemies of ours." Tsukuyomi said and Davis knew he was talking about Raiders' base.

"Tsukuyomi, you can't be serious." Loretta said.

"He might have won the tournament, but he's not ready to face them." Kageyama said.

"He is going to have to start at some point if he wishes to aid us." Larok said.

"It will be fine. We have to find them somehow and he will have us with him the entire time." Tsukuyomi said.

"Exactly what are we talking about?" Davis said as he tried to keep up the act.

"I'm sure you must have heard of a group of assassins called The Raiders." Tsukuyomi said. "There is actually a whole rebel army. We're going to try to locate their base and try to take them all out." Davis managed to get behind enemy lines, but he's hoping he hasn't gone too deep in.

….

The Woods

Davis was led by the five of his enemies into the woods. They were on the look out to try to find his base and he can't have them know he knows where it is.

"So what makes you guys think what we're looking for is here?" Davis said. "You guys must have been looking for years, but had no luck."

"It has to be here. How else would they be able to get to the city?" Bolin said.

"I don't know. Maybe they can teleport." Davis suggested. Kageyama used the power of his Sakusei. The cylinders on his gauntlets came out and were connected to these thin green cords. They projected a map that displayed the area. "Whoa! That is so cool."

"We've tried numerous areas before." Kageyama said. "I say that if we split up in these five directions, we'll cover up most of the area in the forest."

"What do we do if we actually find an enemy?" Loretta asked.

"Eliminate, capture, or follow them back to their base. It's as simple as that." Tsukuyomi said.

"What about Davis? I don't think he's ready to take on something like those rebels." Larok said.

"I'll watch over him." Tsukuyomi offered.

'Perfect. I might get to see what this guy is all about.' Davis thought. All of them split up to try to find the base. Davis and Tsukuyomi went one way and started climbing up a mountain. Davis tried to see what Tsukuyomi's shi no buki is. He figured it was some kind of sword, but it was covered by the carrier on Tsukuyomi's back. "So is the weapon you're carrying on your back special like what Kageyama used?"

"Something like that." Tsukuyomi said.

"Do you think you can show me?" Davis said as he tried to learn more about him.

"Only if we run into trouble. I don't reveal my weapon just for show." Tsukuyomi said. Davis needed to get info on Tsukuyomi since he's the most mysterious, but he stopped as he heard some sort of growling sound.

"Did you hear that?" Davis said. He turned around and panic when he saw a bear was right behind them. "Where did Smokey the Bear come from?"

"You're scared of a bear?" Tsukuyomi said.

"People are one thing. Bears are another." Davis said as he backed up and the bear advanced.

"I've got this." Tsukuyomi said as he reached for the grip of his sword and pulled it out and Davis saw something he couldn't believe. His shi no buki looks exactly like Getsuga

'No way. His shi no buki looks like Getsuga, but it's black.' Davis thought.

"Meet my blade. This is Mugetsu." Tsukuyomi said as he wasn't backing down from the bear. The bear went to attack, but Tsukuyomi beat the bear with no effort as it was sliced in two. "That takes care of that." Tsukuyomi turned around, but saw Davis was gone. "Figures. They all talk tough, but they're all yellow belly cowards. Better go find him so he doesn't end up dead."

…

Davis

Davis used the bear attack as an excuse for him to make a run for it. He hid his mask and Getsuga in the woods. He changed back into his normal clothes and placed his mask on.

"I better get back to base. I've got to tell the others what's going on." Davis said. He didn't get the chance to make a run for it as he heard a rustling in the bushes.

"Looks like I found one." Davis turned around and was amazed that Tsukuyomi was able to catch up to him so easily.

"Tsukuyomi!" Davis said. Tsukuyomi looked down and spotted Getsuga.

"Just my luck. I found the one who is holding Getsuga." Tsukuyomi said with a smile and held out Mugetsu. "This is perfect."

"Perfect? What do you mean?" Davis said.

"You hold Getsuga, the moon fang. I hold Mugest, the moonless fang." Tsukuyomi said. "I've been waiting a long time to find the one who holds Getsuga. We're bound to face each other in battle."

"You've been waiting for me? Sorry to keep you waiting." Davis said as he took a stance against him. 'I know I can take this guy. He can't be that tough.' He thought. "Here goes." He went for the attack and swung his sword at full force, but Tsukuyomi blocked it very easily.

"Don't tell me that's all you got." Tsukuyomi said as Davis jumped back.

'He blocked it so easily. He didn't even flinch.' Davis thought.

"Is that it? Pathetic. I bet you can't even hear Getsuga's voice." Tsukuyomi said.

"Getsuga's voice? What does that mean?" Davis asked.

"I thought so." Tsukuyomi said. "Mugetsu has been crying to face Getsuga. Don't disappoint us."

"You're weird and I'm taking you down." Davis said as he tried to attack. He kept swinging the sword around, but Tsukuyomi was able to block each of his attacks without any problems. Davis tried to swing Getsuga at full force, but Davis's attack was blocked by Tsukuyomi catching it with his bare hand. "What?!"

"You're done for." Tsukuyomi said. Davis felt real danger as Tsukuyomi swung his sword down and created a dust cloud from impact. Luckily, Davis was able to jump out. However, he had a large gash running across his chest and blood running down and he was breathing hard. "You dodged that well."

'I can't believe I thought I could take him.' Davis thought. 'This guy is on a completely different level.'

"Allow me to show you Mugetsu's power." Tsukuyomi said as he held his sword back. He swung it and unleash a black blast of energy. Davis held up his sword to try and block it, but the force was too much as he was being pushed back through the forest.

"Can't stop it." Davis grunted. The force kept pushing Davis until he hit a river and caused a small explosion. Tsukuyomi followed the trail that left behind and waited for him to reemerge.

"Don't tell me I already finished him off. He must be heading down river." Tsukuyomi said as ran to follow the river. "He won't getaway." Davis waited until Tsukuyomi was gone for him to climb out of the river. He rested against the edge with him having hardly any strength and pulled of his mask with him coughing up blood and water.

"That was unreal." Davis said. He heard someone walk up to him and saw their shadow form over him. 'Great. One of them found me. I'm dead.'

"Davis?!" Davis knew that voice as he looked up.

"Ryoto!" Davis said.

"You look like you're in bad shape. Let's get you back to base." Ryoto said as she helped Davis up and he leaned against him as his blood dripped on the ground.

….

Ragur's Tower

The moon rose and Tsukuyomi just returned with the others already waiting for him.

"There you are." Larok said.

"Where's Davis?" Loretta said.

"I don't know. We got separated and I found one a raider. Perhaps, Davis went on home." Tsukuyomi said as he climbed the stairs. He looked back and saw one was missing. "Where's Kageyama?"

"We thought he was with you." Bolin said. Tsukuyomi looked out to the moon and thought about all that has happened and couldn't help, but think there was a connection.

"I have a bad feeling." Tsukuyomi said.

…

Kageyama

Kageyama remained in the woods and continued the search.

"I must be close with all the commotion I heard." Kageyama said. He kept looking until he spotted something on the ground. "What's this?" He used Sakusei around his glasses to be used like an analyzer. "Blood! It looks like it's been drying for a few hours and there's a trail." Kageyama followed the trail until he saw it. He saw the base of The Raiders right in front of him and laughed in glory. "I found you, Raiders!"

…..

Davis: Hey, Shauna, if there is a black shi no buki and a white shi no buki, do you think there's a shi no buki of the devil? You do hold one of an angel.

Shauna: There is one. The devil's trident, remember. The trident represents the devil and my wings represent an angel

Davis: Man, I wonder what the person who holds that is like.

Next time: The Blue and Red Devil
