Red Wolf

Chapter 14
Previously…
After seeing them leave Fenrir looked up and howled briefly, getting other wolf howls in return before he moved with a purpose.
'Odin. You done fucked up now!' Fenrir thought darkly as he vanished into the darkness.
…
School
Tanimoto watches as students clear out of the warpath of a certain individual whose rage while hidden could easily be sensed. Said person is Red or Fenrir as he's known by Ragnarok. He'd been tailing the American for a while and had seen him beat down the large muscle-bound weakling Daimunji and some other thugs to bloody pulps while rescuing his fellow Gardening club member Izumi. Though he still stayed behind to clean up the mess he made and apologized to her too.
He soon spots the redhead enter the room where the stupid Shinpaku Alliance gathers. Rumors are circulating all over school that Ragnarok and the Shinpaku Alliance are fighting. He hasn't seen anyone from the Shinpaku Alliance at school. Takeda, Ukita, Kisara, Shirahama, and that alien freak are all missing. Shirahama is in the mountains training so he doesn't count, but all the others are gone. Tanimoto initially thought it was the work of Berserker but dropped that idea when he found out that Fenrir had killed the Second Fist.
Just what kind of monster is this Fenrir that he's able to take out the powerful brawler?!
Tanimoto then sees Red grabbing Matsui, a member of Shinpaku Alliance by the shirt and bash him into the wall.
"Where is Nijiima?" Red demands easily scaring Matsui.
"H-H-He and the others are at the secret location of where we are mounting our counterattack against Ragnarok." Matsui said quickly before giving Fenrir a piece of paper. "The location is written here."
Fenrir took the paper and tossed Matsui away into a wall who got knocked out when he made impact. Reading the contents of it Fenrir wolfishly grinned before leaving the area but not before turning to where Tanimoto is.
"Consider yourself lucky that you lost to Shirahama or I'd kill you already Tanimoto or should I say Hermit?"
With that Red left the area not bothering to see the wide eyed Tanimoto who'd not expected to be detected not to mention his identity discovered.
Hospital
Red sat beside the unconscious Kisara who was in bandages and bed. He'd arrived at the hospital where the Valkyries mentioned Kisara and Freya were admitted. When he mentioned that he was Kisara's boyfriend he was sent to the doctor who'd treated her and Freya. The doctor told him that both are recovering and will be fine though they'll need to be in bed for a while. Red was relieved by that and thanked the doctor before he could see his girlfriend.
"Hey Kisara. Doctor said you'll be fine. Thank goodness." Red began, "When I saw you unconscious with those injuries I'd thought I was living my nightmare again. However…" A red and black aura began surrounding Red as he held Kisara's hand, "…Odin just fucked up big time and I will make him pay with his life."
The unconscious Kisara flinched due to the aura Red was releasing and held his hand tight which managed to get his attention and calm him down, making the aura disappear.
This made Red smile. Even in her current state she could feel his presence and was still fighting on. He stayed with her for a while longer before he left.
…
"Am I glad you two are here." Vanessa said as she sat on the couch in her apartment with two people sitting across from her. Both were blonde, had blue eyes and were clearly American with one being a female and the other a male. The female had her hair in a ponytail and wore a white top and a skirt with stockings. The male's hair was shorter, and he wore a black muscle shirt and cargo pants.
"We didn't know you were in the area Vanessa." The male blonde said.
"Yeah. We knew you're in Japan but not in this place." The female blonde added.
"Sorry about not telling you both." Vanessa said, "Still what brings you both here."
"I got invited as a guest for the Moto GP race taking place in Saitama." The male blonde answered, "Sis came along because she's worried about our nephew Red, even though I got people keeping tabs on him."
The blonde sibling pouted at her brother. "What? He's family and we need to look out for each other. Is that a problem?"
The brother put up his hands in a placating gesture. "I never said it is Sarah. No need to blow a gasket."
"When your nephew is getting involved in something dangerous you will blow a gasket, Jacky." Sarah deadpanned at her brother.
"Speaking of dangerous I fear that Code Fenrir's surfacing in Red and it'll only be a matter of time before something triggers it." Vanessa said.
"That being this Ragnarok gang, or more like its leader Odin." Sarah said.
"Why Jacky?" Vanessa asked.
"Fenrir's already gone after Odin." Jacky said grimly, "He just left a hospital where his girlfriend had been admitted due to nearly being beaten to death. Most likely this Odin's handiwork."
"And Red is on the warpath out for Odin's blood." Sarah added.
"Not blood, Odin's life." Vanessa corrected as she got to her feet, "The fool attacked the alpha's mate and now the alpha is going to collect his life as penance."
"That brat's got no idea what he's unleashed." Sarah said, "We better find Red before he loses control."
"I've already sent a message to Brad to meet us where my contact's tailing Red." Jacky said, "We'll need to take action so that it doesn't get that far."
'Red can kill Odin for all I care. It's anyone else nearby that I'm more worried about after he's done with him.' Vanessa said thought.
…
Things had gotten chaotic very quickly for the Shinpaku Alliance as they got ambushed by Ragnarok thugs who wasted no time attacking them. Fortunately, Takeda, Ukita and Siegfried had been able to take down a good number of them. However, the thugs just kept coming at them and the Shinpaku Alliance would have been overwhelmed if not for...
CRASH!
"GWAAAAAAAAH!" A delinquent screamed as he felt his back get crushed by a lot of weight landing on him.
Everyone looked at who'd made that entrance and many of them became pale and terrified of who crashed in.
It was Fenrir and the look on his face as if it was his birthday told the Shinpaku Alliance that this brawl was about to turn into a bloodbath, even if it was in their favor.
"A fight's on and I wasn't invited. I'm devastated." Fenrir stated in faked disappointment, "Well it's time to rectify that. So for the sake of whatever little sanity I have left…scream for me motherfuckers!"
And like that all hell indeed broke loose.
…
"What a bloodbath." Kensei said as he watched Fenrir decimate the Ragnarok delinquents through his telescope he normally uses for his perverse desires. Miu looks at the Kempo master with worry.
"Is it that bad?"
"Yes, it is that bad."
Sakaki pops open another beer can. It is his fourth one and it is not even past noon. "What do you expect from someone who's a literal human weapon? Those bastards at that J6 did quite the number on the kid."
The masters are sitting next to each other watching the battle. All of them are on the other side of the river bank able to witness the fight from one mile away. Even at this distance they are all able to see with perfect clarity.
"A pity that he goes down such a dark path all to get his vengeance." Akisame said.
…
Nijiima looks on in awe and terror, typing away at his PDA as Fenrir tore through the delinquents like no man's business. The fight had indeed become a bloodbath the moment Fenrir crashed the party. There were bodies all over the place and that body count was growing by the second as the vicious Vale Tudo fighter tore through his victims like a hurricane.
"I hate to say it but I'm glad I'm not his enemy." Takeda stated then cringed as another delinquent had his face smashed in by Fenrir.
"Agreed." Ukita said, "I'm lucky to still be alive thanks to Shirahama." He remembered nearly being killed twice by the man in front of them.
Siegfried flinched as he watched Fenrir. At his current state he knew he had no chance in avenging Thor. Fenrir would easily tear him apart if he fought him as he was. He'll need to get stronger to stand a shot in hell against him.
Another delinquent is sent flying through the air with his chest caved in. Two remaining delinquents look at Fenrir in terror as their comrades were around them either dead or close to Death's door.
"He is too strong!"
"We can't even touch him."
Fenrir growled, "Begone…You're not the one I want." He knew his target was around, just bidding his time before he showed up, so Fenrir took out his annoyance on his minions.
The two remaining delinquents immediately turned around and ran for their lives but didn't get very far as both are struck by high speed blows that knocked them the hell out.
Fenrir's grin becomes downright psychotic as a handsome boy with purple hair, a white suit, and glasses comes walking forward.
"So, you finally decided to grace me with your presence Odin." Fenrir said, "I've waited more than three years for this."
Odin pushes up his glasses. "Fenrir." He said with barely restrained rage. Fenrir stands calmly.
Nijiima takes a few steps back. 'This is Odin huh?' He begins gathering information on the First Fist. 'The rematch is about to begin.'
A smile appears on Odin's face. "Honestly I'd hoped you were dead but now I'm glad you're alive Fenrir. This time I can put you down like the rabid dog you are and always been."
"Here's some free advice since your master never taught you it: 'Next time you want to kill someone, make sure they're fucking dead.'." Fenrir said.
"I'll be sure to take it to heart as I make sure you don't come back again." Odin replied.
"Ha! I like to see you try!" Fenrir said while cracking his knuckles and taking his stance with a few differences. He was leading with his left foot instead of his usual right and both hands were lower than normal with his rear hand in a closed fist and the other open and by his waist.
…
"That's a pretty poor stance. Wide open and hold up…he's in Orthodox? I thought he was a Southpaw?!" Miu comments as she watches through Kensei's telescope while the masters of Ryozanpaku sat beside her. "Fenrir's underestimating Odin."
"I highly doubt that." Akisame said, "That is Fenrir fighting differently."
"What do you mean?" Miu asks in confusion.
Sakaki pops open a beer can, "The kid's aura's different Miu. He's not the same person you fought, he's a completely different animal now."
"He's definitely ambidextrous if he's able to fight from both stances." Akisame added.
"Is it…the three-year gap?" Shigure brought up.
"Yes. It must have to do with what happened to him during the three-year period he was missing." Kensei added, "Question is how he will do against Odin?"
…
Seeing Fenrir in his stance Odin grabbed his glasses, took them off and threw them away.
Nijiima's eyes narrow. 'He is near-sighted, why is he removing his glasses?'
Fenrir raised an eyebrow at that saying, "You sure you want to do that? Won't you be needing them?"
"I'm not insane enough to use Seikuken against you a third time." Odin said, "And considering you've been trained by a master it'll be best I don't mess around."
"Good to know." Fenrir said before taking a step forward, shooting forward at his opponent. He comes in with a liver punch followed by a hook to the head but hits air much to his surprise as Odin already took a couple steps back to avoid the punches. Ignoring the miss Fenrir this time fakes a body straight and comes up with a lead smash but once more hits nothing. Fenrir's danger senses go off and barely slips a blow to his head before lunging back.
Odin has a momentary look of surprise before shaking it off, "So you managed to avoid my attack at the last second. Your reflexes are something else."
Fenrir scoffs back, "So, you learnt a new trick huh? It won't make much of a difference." The Vale Tudo fighter unleashes a flurry of feints, punches and kicks but Odin still has a smile on his face as he continues to see through the feints and avoid the attacks. Fenrir throws a lead leg kick but Odin steps in to nullify the effectiveness of it while weaving through the follow up straight, hook, straight combo. He barely misses his counter as once again Fenrir swayed away from it at the last second and came back with a pull counter forcing Odin back.
…
Akisame is surprised. "He possesses the Inner Eye."
Miu gains a confused look. "What is the Inner Eye?"
"The Inner Eye is a high-level technique that is few martial artists are able to master. It holds the power of observation. By observing an opponent's attack and even defense patterns, it becomes easy to predict their every movement." Kensei explained, "It doesn't apply only to the outside, but to the inside. Such as balance shifts and breathing to predict your opponent's next move." Miu nods, she turns around and her butt is immediately grabbed. "See, I knew you would turn around with my Inner Eye."
"Pervert!"
Sakaki crushes his beer can, "Even with that Fenrir's able to avoid the counters with his insane reflexes at the last second, but even that is a temporary solution."
…
"Gungnir." A blow slams into Fenrir's face much to the Vale Tudo fighter's surprise. Two more blows connect forcing him backwards.
'What the fuck?! I know I dodged those attacks!' Fenrir thought in confusion.
"What's the matter? You seem so slow." Odin taunted.
"Tsk! Don't get cocky, that was a lucky hit!" Fenrir replied and moved in weaving his head from left to right before feinting a body blow and coming up with a lunging lead hook. Once again, he missed and got dropped by a nasty counter. "Bloody hell!" Fenrir cursed spitting out blood. 'Son of a bitch! It's like fighting Dural again!' Dural may not have had whatever trick Odin was using, but the android could predict her opponent's moves and respond accordingly by their body language and adapting to them. That had been the case through those grueling training sessions back at J6's labs until he finally adapted and beat down that android.
Fenrir recovered his posture and rushed right at the smiling Odin again only to once again get countered even more by the First Fist with another attack forcing Fenrir to his knees.
"It is all over. My Gungnir never misses its target. With my Inner Eye I can see all your movements." Odin said standing across Fenrir. "This time I win. Time to put you out of your misery." He goes for a finishing blow and hits air; his eyes widen in shock as an overhand punch lands clean on his jaw and then an outside trip puts him down too.
Fenrir walks towards the dumbfounded Odin that's rising to his feet while the Vale Tudo fighter himself spits out blood and saliva in annoyance. "I don't know about Inner Eye or whatever bullshit you call it, but I've fought someone who utilized something similar, so it's not going to work on me anymore."
Odin barely avoids a wild hook and Fenrir uses the momentum to turn on his heel and kicks Odin in the gut. Pain fills Odin as he slides backwards not believing that he was hit. This is made worse when Fenrir connects with a superman punch, lead hook combo. The Vale Tudo fighter then attacks while moving forward switching his stances giving Odin no chance to counter. Odin barely dodges an uppercut and tries to move in for a strike, with Fenrir ducking under the attack and grabbing Odin's legs, picking him up and running forward while roaring before slamming down hard. Fenrir postures up and begin pounding away with punches and elbows and soon he cuts Odin on the forehead and both become covered in Odin's blood. Odin then bucks Fenrir off his back as rises to his feet much to Fenrir's surprise.
"I…WON'T…LOSE…TO…A RABID DOG LIKE YOU!" Odin roared as an intense aura begins to surround Odin.
Fenrir watches as Odin's shirt explodes from his body. Odin's muscles begin to expand. The First Fist's entire body starts to grow bulkier.
"So, you gained some muscle huh? Big fucking deal." Fenrir deadpanned.
Laughter comes from Odin. "Seidou Gou!" Odin vanishes putting Fenrir on edge. A fist buries into his gut making him stumble back. Odin moves so fast that it is like there are clones. Blows strike Fenrir all over his body. An uppercut that launches the him high into the air. Odin leaps up and kicks him back down to the ground hard.
"By combining the powers of Sei and Dou, I am able to attain limitless power!" Odin says, basking in his power. An eyebrow rises slightly when he sees Fenrir somehow stand up. "Tsk. You're too tough for your own good. DIE!"
Odin closed in for the finishing blow only for it to get caught by Fenrir's left hand, much to his shock. Next Odin was sent sliding back by a one-inch punch to the chest that inflicted a lot of damage. "W-What?! I-Impossible!"
"That's quite the power boost you got." Fenrir said with the bangs of his feral hair covering his eyes, "How about I do the same?"
Fenrir reared his head back as a red and black aura engulfed him and he roared causing the ground to shake causing those around him to have to maintain their balance or fall outright. When the aura dissipated all that they saw was a medium sized humanoid with dark red skin, athletic build, feral hair and a tail.
The figure brought his head down and stared at Odin with malice in his black and red eyes, his KI focused on him ready to continue the fight. The Shinpaku Alliance members were frozen in terror at this monster in front of them, though they all felt sorry for the one that was facing this being.
…
"What the hell is that?!" Miu asked in terror.
"Fenrir's true form." Vanessa answered as she, the Bryants and Brad Burns arrived where Miu and the masters were.
"That's Fenrir's true form?! What do you mean?!"
"You mean…the final product from…Project Fenrir?" Shigure asked.
"Yes." Brad answered, "This was meant to be J6's greatest weapon for their world domination plans…until we put a stop to it."
"But it was a brutal, grueling battle too." Sarah said.
"And who are those two with you?" Sakaki asked.
"Name's Jacky Bryant. Jeet Kune Do master." Jacky introduced himself.
"I'm Sarah Bryant, his sister and also a Jeet Kune Do master along with Savate and Taekwondo." Sarah said, "And we're Red's aunt and uncle."
Miu widened her eyes in surprise. These are Red's uncle and aunt whom she can tell are just as powerful as the masters.
"So you're his relatives? I take it that you're here for your nephew." Kensei said.
"Obviously." Sarah said as she watched the incoming execution, "So that's the one known as Odin? Should I feel sorry for him?"
"Considering who he's up against. Yeah, he's royally fucked." Brad said.
"I'm not. Odin dug his grave and he's about to get buried in it." Vanessa said.
…
Odin stared at the transformed Fenrir. He knew that his opponent had drastically become more powerful, but he still felt that he could take him on. Scoffing he entered his fighting stance once more.
"You think that you can defeat me with that transformation?!"
Fenrir said nothing and just vanished out of sight. Odin then doubled over in pain spitting out blood and saliva, seeing a fist in his gut before stumbling back. Fenrir once more got in Odin's face with the First Fist attacking in panic, but Fenrir vanishes again and then Odin feels excruciating pain in his chest making him stagger back again as he sees Fenrir with his elbow pointed forward.
Odin growls and ignores the pain. "Gungnir!" He strikes at Fenrir but hits an afterimage and a lightning fast kick connects on Odin's left arm shattering the bone and causing him to scream in agony, this is followed by punches and kicks all over with a kick to the Odin's right leg that shatters it. Odin's about to fall but feels his head being pulled up and a knee connects to the jaw forcing him to stay standing. Even in his pained state Odin attempts a last-ditch attack to put Fenrir down but unfortunately it fails as he once more hits an afterimage and gets a hook to the face, then another, then another. A flurry of punches from both left and right connect on the helpless Odin.
…
Miu averts her eyes away as she can't bear to watch the brutal display while the masters watch knowing the result and Vanessa, Brad, Jacky and Sarah leave towards where Fenrir and Odin are and because of someone they spotted also going there.
…
The onslaught continues for a good amount of time. It seemed like the punches just won't stop coming as Odin's face is now barely recognizable. He then gets a short reprieve when he stumbles against a wall.
'So this is where it ends? This is where I die?'
Fenrir rears its right hand back and with a loud roar throws one last punch and connects which echoes throughout the area. Odin's head snaps up with a sickening crack at the impact before he slowly falls face first to the ground and no longer moves.
Fenrir looks at the unmoving body of Odin emotionlessly and then howls loudly as the same red and black aura surrounds it before dissipating and Red remained in its place, his top and jacket gone showing his exposed skin with scars all over, but his jeans and sneakers remained unscathed.
"Burn in hell Odin." Red muttered.
He then heard clapping behind him and spun around to see a man wearing a white cloak with a hood. Red prepares for another fight but feels tiredness starting to come over him. 'Shit! That damned form took up more of my stamina than expected. This is bad!' He thought.
"That was a very exciting fight you had with my former disciple Fenrir. Got my blood boiling." The man in white said surprising Red that he knew who he was, "My name is Ogata and I trained the one you call Odin. Ryuto couldn't stop talking about you when he'd returned for more training after his first two fights against you."
"Well it looks like that training didn't help much since your disciple's a corpse now." Red stated.
"True, but that's because you're stronger than Ryuuto was." Ogata said.
"So what's next? You kill me because of what I did to your disciple?" Red asked.
"No. How about you become my disciple instead?" Ogata replied.
"No thank you." Red outright refused.
"I never said you had a choice in the matter." Ogata said moving quickly at Red, whom got his hands up barely.
A blur comes down in between Red and Ogata with Ogata avoiding an attack from said blur and jumping over to where Odin lied. A look of annoyance is on Ogata's face at the new arrival. "Vanessa Lewis."
Red looks on in surprise at his sister in front of him, "Sis?!"
"Don't even think of laying a hand on my brother. Unless you have a death wish." Vanessa warns.
Ogata chuckles a dark gleam in his eyes. "Is that so? I think he would become better under my tutelage."
"Unfortunately for you, he already has someone teaching him."
"So you can back off instead."
Ogata turns his head to see Jacky and Sarah Bryant standing on both sides of him.
Red's eyes widen at the sight of Jacky and Sarah. "Uncle, Aunty! You're here?!"
"But if you fancy your chances against us then you're free to try." Brad adds from behind Ogata.
"They have a point Ogata." Akisame adds from on top of an old beam along with the other Ryozanpaku masters. "The boy already has masters of his own, so he will be staying with them. Unless you think you can take us all, Ogata." Akisame smiled.
A growl comes from Ogata. He crouches down picking up the dead Odin and tossing his corpse over his shoulder. "So, you're all banding together." He glances at Vanessa.
"We might have a similar foe in you and your group." Vanessa says, "But it also doesn't mean we're allies."
"I see." Ogata shrugs, "Well my offer still stands for you and your brother Vanessa. It'll be in your best interest to take it."
"And it'll be in your best interest if you fuck off before I send you to hell." Vanessa counters.
Laughter comes from Ogata. "Then so be it. The darkness is coming." Ogata leaps upward vanishing into thin air. None of the masters from Ryozanpaku nor Vanessa, the Bryants and Brad bother to give chase.
"Tch! What an asshole." Red says as he tries to move but he begins to collapse in exhaustion only to be caught by Vanessa.
Meanwhile a good distance away…
Standing on a pole is Kage-Maru who's less than pleased by the turn of events.
He growled in anger, "I warned Vanessa, but she refused to listen. Now the monster has been unleashed."
Some distance away a man with silver hair wearing red looks on from the top of a building before pushing on his earpiece.
"Good news Durix. I've found Project Fenrir."
Chapter 14 End.
After a grueling battle Red finally ends Odin and gets his long sought-after revenge while also transforming into the monster J6 wanted him to be which sealed the fight for him.
Of course this has resulted in another can of worms for him.
What's the aftermath going to be like?
Project Fenrir Transformation: Originally meant to be his true form but thanks to Vanessa and other fighters beating him he avoided that fate. In this form he's basically a male version of Dural but even more OP and savage. As for appearance just imagine Sol Badguy's Dragon Install form in Guilty Gear Xrd but much more feral looking.
