BLACK 13

Previously from the last BLACK...

From a visit from a person of his past, Sora Minakaze was placed on the hot seat. Given the chance to finally get some answers to the current doings of the BLACK lotus, he followed the man through the rainy streets of Torifune. Unfortunately, the person who met Sora was only assigned to kill him, he was ready to do so without hesistation. Now on the run, the man is trying to leave the scene but Sora is trying to make sure he doesn't...

The question is whether or not Sora is running after more than just this man...or something beyond.

And now, the continuation of BLACK Rebellion

The rain came down hard on the streets of Torifune, the crowds of people held tightly to their umbrellas as it poured down on them relentlessly. Everyone desperately tried to avoid getting wet in the process as Sora continued to fight through the crowds that slowly split away from his intended target. The rain made it difficult for him to see him properly due to the sheer volume of raindrops that got into his view, but that didn't stop him from speeding up in the process in order to get closer to him. 'Come on...Get over here you bastard...' Sora thought as he truly wanted to know what the Black Lotus was going to do now.

The scout moved swiftly, the rain soaking his clothes and making them heavier in the process. The water streamed down his face as he tried to keep a calm demeanor with his hasty retreat. He knew that he had to escape right now due to the fact that he was simply outnumbered in general. 'Dammit...Dammit Dammit Dammit! This time I will kill you!' He thought as he was forming a plan in his mind in general. He knew that Sora was following him at the moment but he didn't know if the others were also following suit.

His plan was simple, either escape or kill Sora Minakaze, it's such a simple plan that not even a toddler could screw this up. Two options were presented to him, all he had to pick. 'I guess...All I have to do first is let that bastard follow me first and then I shall see what's my option.' the man thought as Sora in the meantime had other ideas in his mind. 'I just have to keep following him...he will eventually head to a place where the crowd is not as dense. I just have to be patient and hope this bastard doesn't try anything drastic.' Sora thought as thunder soon roared at the sky.

'Maybe this will tell me what he does.' The scout thought as the massive crowds from before now became a small group of people at least. They were small and spread out as he waited patiently for the thunder to come down once again. Sora himself was also looking out for any suspicious movements that the scout might make as he noticed the scout holding his right hand closely. 'The finger I sliced was from the right side... I could use that to my advantage.' Sora thought as the scout soon suddenly sped up and revealled a small charge of lightning from his finger. 'Oh no...he's going to attack!'

Sora knew he had to react, the attack was going to come straight to him and it was too dangerous to dodge this attack. The crowd may be small but he still doesn't want any causalities on this day. Seeing a couple holding an umbrella, Sora had an idea as he picked up his pace to make sure he was behind that couple. He then stared into the sky, waiting for a sign from the sky, the same signal that he knew the scout was going to wait for in order to attack. The sign that came forth from the sky itself as the familiar white light came crashing forth from it.

In an instant, The scout turned for a quick second and make a quick shot of blinding light that went straight for the couple, blinding everyone who was right in front of it at that exact moment. Lightning soon shot out from his fingers, charging forth like a blast of lightning, ready to strike Sora down at that moment. At the same time, Sora quickly shoved the couple off their umbrella, kicking it directly towards the lightning. The electricity coursed through the umbrella due to the metal construction and helped to dissipate it safely away from the group of people. At the same time, Sora ran forward, running straight for the scout as he soon took off, leaving the group of people dazed and confused.

"Woah! What the hell happened!?" A citizen wondered as everyone was trying to get their bearings at that moment. Soon, they saw the charred umbrella and the couple that stumbled to the ground. "Oh my goodness! Are you two alright!?" Another Citizen said as soon a crowd of people with their umbrellas gathered along the couple to see how they were doing. Marcus, Chikacho and Makoto saw this happening as they huddled closely to the umbrella that Marcus held. "Nii-san was here..." Marcus muttered as Makoto herself couldn't help but worry even more for Sora at this point.

"What should we do guys...do we still go after him?" Makoto asked as Marcus and Chikacho looked at her with some reluctance. They had been thinking of something for some time but didn't know how to sugarcoat it as Chikacho took a deep breath. "I believe it's best that you leave it to us Makoto...You should head back to the dorms." She said as Makoto looked at the two of them for a second and blinked. It took her a moment to register what they had just told her before she retaliated in a manner that they expected.

Makoto: Wait...What do you mean by that?!

Marcus: Oh man...Well...

Makoto: Well what?! Give me an answer already man!

Chikacho: This is something you should not be involving yourself.

Makoto: What?! The Black Lotus?! Well news flash, one, I know about them because Sora told me about them, Two, I can handle myself in a fight and three, isn't it bad enough I am keeping a secret like this from all of my friends!

Marcus: Well...Let me get something out of the way first, just because you know...doesn't mean the danger isn't there Makoto

Chikacho: Two, Fighting in an arena against one person with pain limiters doesn't constitute you being ready to fight. And as much as you want to help in that aspect, I am afraid you will get in the way. For one thing, you are not armed, what are you going to do with your two fists? Punch and kick?

Makoto: Are you trying to underestimate my strength?

Marcus: Woah woah woah...we aren't underestimating anything Makoto...It's just...

Makoto: It's just what!?

Marcus: We don't want Nii-san to lose another person close to him again...

The moment Marcus said those words, Makoto's anger was immediately quelled as silence soon greeted her. "Makoto...You may not realize it...but you have become something important to him. Haven't you noticed that he wishes to spend more time with you?" Marcus explained as Makoto scratched her head and nodded. "Of course I did...We both haven't been able to see each other for a while because of all of the new friends he is making right now... It was much easier when it was just me as his only friend here. I am still getting used to the fact that you guys are here now and he's spending time with you in order to make up for all the times that you all lost." Makoto said with honesty as she looked away from them, finally able to let out the words she had been holding back for a while.

"And he does too...All he mentions in conversations with us ever since we came into the academy is about you..." Chikacho said as Makoto looked at Chikacho, mildly surprised with a smile on her face as Chikacho was about to get to her point. "Which is why you need to live Makoto...and not get involved in this right now." Chikacho said as Makoto could only look at her with some worry in her eyes as she nodded. "I guess Sora really needs me to be alive huh...as if he depends on me to keep his sanity in check." Makoto figured for herself as Marcus shook his head. "It's not that Makoto...We just don't want him to suffer another loss again...two years is enough time to heal from old wounds. We want to let him heal and hopefully...he could live a normal life despite his past." Marcus said, placing his hand on his chest with a hopeful smile present on his face.

"But the Black Lotus will not stop chasing us down... we are former members and we are betrayed them in the end. Even if we desire a normal life, the Black Lotus will not stop until our heads...and our lives are theirs" Chikacho said as Makoto looked at both Marcus and Chikacho as she felt the weight of the burden they held as she closed her own eyes. She thought she knew of burdens, having suffered all her life against racism and social injustice. She thought that was enough for her to know what it was like to hold a burden, to hold something only you can understand, but not only did she experience a small part of that burden, it was clear she still had time to grow.

"Alright...I will head back to the dorms. Just...promise me that Sora will be alright." Makoto asked as both Marcus and Chikacho nodded and took off, leaving the umbrella to be held by Makoto and Makoto alone. As she began to walk back to the dorm, she could help but secretly clench her fist deep inside her pockets. "Dammit...why... I have all of the strength in the world... Isn't that enough to help you guys? Am I really just burdening you three?..." Makoto thought as she couldn't help but feel angry at herself for not expressing herself more. Sora was her friend too yet she was alright leaving it to fate to keep him alive.

She wanted to hate herself...yet couldn't for some reason...

The chase continued in the alleys of Torifune, Sora not relenting on his chase as the scout continued to run. 'Fuck me! He just won't leave me alone!' He thought as Sora stuck closely to his back, not wanting to let him escape. 'He won't escape...I won't let him escape!' Sora thought as he extended his hands, wanting to grab his clothes to pull him to the ground, succeeding to do so. The Scout reacted to this accordingly by moving his body to remove said article of clothing in an instant, leaving Sora to stumble a little bit on his footing as he placed some distance between the two of them.

Sora soon recovered from his stumble, making sure that he didn't make a mistake and slip into the ground which would have made him waste even more time. Smacking his feet on the ground, Sora continued to chase the scout further into the deeper sections of the hierarchical city. Both Sora and the scout knew that the place that they were heading to was going to be soon deserted, the former signs of life that inhabited the buildings before them. 'This is perfect...I will end him here' the scout thought as the rain poured heavily onto the ground and their bodies.

Creating a couple of ars magus seals on his fingers, the scout got ready to fire another barrage of lightning shots towards Sora. But the moment he turned around and stuck his fingers out, Sora immediately used this time to try and slice them off. 'Shit!' He thought as he quickly retracted back his vulnerable right arm as it had already lost a finger and he was not willing to lose any more from that hand. He attempted to pull back his left hand but before he could do so, he felt something sharp slice through, almost as if it was paper as he didn't realize what had happened until he noticed that his left hand was slowly flying away from him.

'Huh...That's not right...my hand is supposed to be coming towards me.' the man thought as he tried to pull his arm back. The realization struck his head as he soon instinctively grabbed the stump that formerly held his left hand tightly and kicked Sora away, revealing the cold steel of his arm blade, covered in blade as his eyes resembled that of steel instead. 'Those eyes... Does he intend to kill me!?' the scout thought as he soon spotted a hole and leapt into it, slipping through the hole with ease as Sora stopped by the hole, staring into it as he stared back at the blade, finally realizing the traces of blood on it.

"Huh...did I...sliced that man's hand?" Sora muttered to himself, not realizing that he had done so. It was all a blur to him, everything that occurred happened in a millisecond, he merely reacted out of instinct and this was the result. He couldn't help but feel sick to his stomach about how easily he did so as he quickly wiped the blood off the blade with his shirt out of instinct, glad that his shirt was black otherwise it would have stained with the colour of red. Despite this, the smell of blood crept it's way into his nose, the distinct smell of human flesh being exposed to air that he had to get used to in his older days.

Holding his head slightly, Sora couldn't help but take a couple of deep breaths at first in order to steady his breathing in general. He had spent at least 2 years away from the sights of battle, the sights of people dying, losing their limbs, buildings burning and collapsing to their doom, all of the tragedies...all he used to see, he was now reseeing with his two eyes, trying to take in everything before realizing, he was wasting so much time standing still at that current moment. "I need to focus...just focus on getting him and asking questions..." Sora told himself, muttering in a way as if he was praying deep down.

Making his way down the hole slowly, Sora felt water touch his feet, gently caressing his legs as the stench of something foul soon entered his nose. While most would be feeling a bit foul from this stench, Sora just ignored it and pressed on, unshaken and focused on his objective. Thinking about what he was going to do when he met the Black Lotus scout, Sora took a deep breath as he knew very well how dangerous an injured person really is when they are cornered and desperate. What he does must not only be quick and decisive, one wrong move and he will be killed in an instant. There is no second chance, there is no redo, there is one shot and that is your only shot. This is the true meaning of war in general.

It was because of this fickleness of battle that he almost never plans for true battle at all. All of the planning in the battles that he had in the Academy in general was now going to be thrown out of the window and replaced with the former way of thinking that most people consider not only terrible, it's near suicidal in nature. Sora didn't care about that though, all he did care was how efficient he could finish the mission with as many of his squad's lives kept intact. "You can do this Sora...you can do this..." Sora muttered to himself, trying to control the urge within him that he felt from slicing that man's hand off in general.

The urge to kill...the urge that he had once tasted in his life. A bitter taste that slowly becomes intoxicating to the point of an addiction similar to a drug addict. Sora hated the feeling so much...yet he couldn't stop himself for a time. He only stopped with the help of the people in his life currently and if he went back to killing, he would destroy all of the work they had done in order to help give him a taste of normal life. This was his reason that he could be the person he is today, and also the reason why he has a heavy restraint on his actions in the end. It's as if...he can't trust himself enough to not kill anymore.

His eyes then caught on to a blinding flash of light that blasted right past him. Keeping still at that moment, Sora finally knew the man's location as he began to run faster. The man panicked a little bit as he fired more lightning shots from his injured right hand, no longer the impressive volley that he could fire before due to him lacking his left hand and missing a right finger, his lightning was now more focused and powerful, making great echoes throughout the tunnel. 'What am I doing!? I have to get myself out of this hole first!' the man thought as he had to rethink his entire plan of killing Sora in general.

Aiming his fingers for the ceiling, he concentrated all four of them into one concentrated bolt of lightning, blasting a hole with ease as he climbed his way out despite having only his right hand and it lacking one finger. Sora gave chase as well as the man checked on the tourniquet he made for his left arm in order to stop it from bleeding. He was willing to sacrifice the rest of his left arm to kill this man who sliced his hand off, trying to keep the calm that he wanted to project in battle to not betray what he was thinking.

He soon climbed out of the whole he made as it was right in the middle of a path that lead to an abandoned building, 'Perfect...this will do.' He thought as he calmly went to the building with haste as soon after he left the hole, Sora managed to spot him running away from the distance, making him instinctively chase after as the man entered the building. 'Damn...I don't want to fight in there...' Sora thought as he felt his common sense tell him to stop and not enter the lion's den but he ignored it, throwing caution and common sense out of the window and reasoned with himself in the process with the thought, 'But if I have to fight him in there then I got no choice in the end huh!'

The inside of the building was rather dusty, expected when a place has been abandoned for a while. The scene around him resembled that of the scene from a fire, charred furniture and burned walls marking all around the area, giving him a sense of pain as this was a sight that was too familiar to him. Deciding to move fast in order to not think about it, Sora began to refocus himself on his search for the scout. He took a single footstep which creaked on the floor as he stopped himself at that point, pausing at that moment as he breathed out heavily.

Walking slowly, he looked around the building carefully, pressing on the burnt walls gently to make sure he didn't made a noise, which would have allowed people to know where he is. He was always cautious, no matter how injured a man was injured, how many limbs he severed, an enemy is still dangerous until they either cannot fight or... dead of course. Looking at the roof, he began to examine it closely as a voice soon echoed throughout the house. "Tell me! Why do you hesistate to kill me!" The voice belonging to the scout echoed as Sora breathed slowly.

"Why should I tell you? You're going to die anyways! Whether it's from me or from your injuries!" Sora said as he knew that the scout was still going to die in the end due to the severity of his injuries in the end. You don't just lose a few fingers and a hand and not lose blood in the process. He was at his wits end and will get desperate to finish him off as fast as possible. "HAH! You say that but I know! You not only have gotten soft, I can feel the fear that you are emitting right now! You are no longer the same Miraclebringer two years ago! You're just a scared little man!" he yelled, trying to obviously berate and anger him further which he simply ignored, keeping his feelings to himself.

"Or that's what you would like to think... Don't think I don't know what the Black Lotus likes to do." Sora replied back as the scout merely scoffed and began to laugh slightly. "Do you think I am bluffing?" The man questioned as Sora couldn't help but become even more alert at that taunt. Without warning, a sudden stab of yellow light pierced it's way through the wall, shaped like a lightning bolt as it moved out swiftly as fast as it entered. Sending all of his senses into high alert, Sora immediately stabbed back at the hole, missing entirely as another lightning bolt stabbed it's way through.

'What on earth!? what is he doing!' Sora thought as he pulled out his blade swiftly and began running quickly for the entrance to the room that he was in. This move surprised Sora as he had thought that all he could do was fire lightning bolts. It was then that he slapped his head at how he could forget such a crucial thing in battle. 'That's right...he can form lightning weapons, dammit this is becoming more and more troubling.' Sora thought as he soon saw the man as he was waiting for him.

The man had managed to form a lightning like shank around his stump of a left hand which allowed him to use it like a knife. At the same time, his sunglasses were off, revealing the glowing purple eyes that symbolized the Black Lotus and their Grimoire. He then charged for Sora and tried to stab him in the end but Sora managed to dodge the attempted stabbing and wanted to retaliate with an attack from his arm blade. Before he could do so, Sora felt a huge discharge of lightning blast him away, smashing him through the dry wall with ease.

'Dammit! A burst!?' Sora thought as the scout looked at him with a slight pant to his face. Bursts were something he had just recently learnt from the Academy, a sudden discharge of ars magus seals that create a pushing force against the people that surround the caster. It is an intermediate skill that takes time and practice to use and even then the most people can do is explode the barriers that they use also known as barrier burst. The scout had somehow managed to merge his lightning with his burst, forming an even more powerful burst than normal as he struggled to stand up in the process.

"I know of your inability to use ars magus in general...you are one of the only people who are able to fight people who can and the Lotus recognized you for that...SO WHY DID YOU BETRAY US!" The scout yelled as he ran for him and began to deliver a series of wild slashes that were large in arc and devastating if they connect. "YOU COULD HAVE STAYED WITH US! YOU COULD HAVE HAD IT ALL! SO WHY THROW IT AWAY!" The scout yelled some more as Sora punched him in the face and out of instinct, slashed back in a fatal manner, attempting to bisect the scout in half which he managed to notice and stopped the attack with ease.

"SEE! YOUR BODY KNOWS ABOUT YOUR PAST WELL! WHY ARE YOU LYING TO YOURSELF WITH THIS LIFE!" The scout yelled as Sora struggled to not allow these thoughts that he was thinking of at that moment from clouding his judgement overall. Struggling to control what his instincts want to do, Sora quickly instead of slicing went for a punching thrust to the man's throat. This was swiftly dodged as he tried to slice at the man's leg to stop him but this too was dodged easily as well.

Sora wanted to retort so badly at that moment, but he couldn't otherwise his opponent might exploit him and his words. Instead of saying a word, Sora continued to deliver a series of fluries with his single arm blade all while trying to focus on his thoughts. Delivering a series of quick punches from his free hand, Sora managed to pressure his opponent to a corner as he continued to dodge his attacks with ease. Then, without warning, the scout swung his blade right for him, slicing off the tip of the arm blade clean off with ease, making Sora retreat with a simple backstep in response. Soon, the reverse was happening as the scout pressured Sora with a flurry of his own, slowly slicing away the arm blade that Sora used with precision from his lightning hand.

"TELL ME! WHY DID YOU BETRAY US!? THE TRUE REASON WHY YOU BETRAYED US!" the scout yelled as Sora could feel the anger that he was releasing now slowly seep into his attacks. 'Dammit! Dammit dammit dammit!' Sora thought as he continued to take the attacks without trying to retaliate back even though he could. It was at that moment, for a split second, a sentence that the scout said not only cause Sora to erupt into a rage, it all happened way to quickly for the eye to catch.

"IS IT BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT YOU NEED SOMEONE TO BLAME FOR KILLING YOUR OWN COMRADES!"

In that heat of the moment, Sora's mind blanked out for a split second. All reason and logic went off as Sora's eyes flared up and began to retaliate heavily against the scout. Immediately, Sora took the next attack that the scout delivered which happened to be a thrust at the chest. Instead of writhing in pain, Sora merely sliced off the opposing arm that stabbed him clean off, leaving the man to slowly writhe in pain as now he completely lost his left arm and could only produce lightning from his right hand which he tried to do so. However as he raised his arm, Sora immediately sliced that off with cold precision, unhesistant and not thinking about what he was going to do to this man.

The scout tried to push back the assault that Sora was delivering but it was just too overwhelming as his body soon slowly began to get sliced up greatly. Before he knew it, Sora sliced his right thigh, Forcing him to kneel as he looked at Sora and the cold eyes he was emitting as his logic and reason slowly came back from that moment of rage. Taking multiple deep breathes, Sora didn't know what he should say to what he had considered a pathetic piece of human trash at that moment. "What happened to my comrades...Is not only your business to not butt in...I will fucking kill you if you try to suggest that it is." Sora said as he felt his bloodlust growing greatly, the urge of wanting to kill nearly intoxicating him once again.

It was then Sora closed his eyes tightly, breathing heavily as he couldn't help but feel a bit sick to his stomach in the process. How could he be doing this so easily before? Never before has he felt sick about himself until now as he stabbed the arm blade right into the man's left thigh and broke it off. "But you're not worth it...You're just not worth it." Sora muttered as he could only look away, confused and unsure of what he should do now. He finally has the man who could give him all of the answers that he needs about the Black Lotus yet, he cannot even ask the man right now due to the sad pitiful state he reduced him to.

It was at that moment, the scout began to laugh eerily, near hysterically, as if he had just lost his mind in the process as he looked at Sora with a mocking grin. "HAHAHA! YOU ARE NOT THE MIRACLEBRINGER! YOU ARE JUST A SPINELESS COWARD!" The man yelled but Sora didn't have the strength to retaliate right now. His thought process was in multiple directions and scattered, he didn't even know what he should be doing right now and just wanted to have some time alone. He heard a breath of air as he was about to walk out of the scene as the scout or trash in his mind right now was bout to spew more of his trash.

"That's enough from you...you have done your job perfectly." A voice echoed as Sora immediately looked around after hearing that voice, a voice that was all to familiar to him. "So let me reward you...with the viewing of the Lotus you so desire." The voice continued as the scout soon began to scream out in pain, excited for some strange reason. "AAAAHHH! YES! YES! I SEE..." before he could finish his sentence, a bright burning light began to sizzle within him, making Sora turn around quickly in order to see what was happening to him.

What was happening to the scout would have made people not only puke a little bit, the sight of such an action would disgust everyone. The sight of flesh glowing a bright red as it melts away was one of them. The scout's eyes also slowly began to melt away as his mouth glowed greatly as he couldn't even speak once at all. In the end, the skin began to disintegrate away, briefly revealing the muscle of the human body before that disintergrated away into just bones in general. Soon, the man that he had fought, the man that accused him of being a traitor, just became nothing but a pair of clothes and bones that collapsed to the ground.

Sora couldn't believe the sight of what he had just witnessed as footsteps were heard echoing through the hallways. "And you...You have changed for the worse I fear...Sora." The person said as Sora went into the hallways and looked around more. "Well...Look who decided to show up...Why don't you come out here and show me your face...BOSS!" Sora shouted as the man merely chuckled a little bit. "And yet you still call me your boss...I am touched." The Boss said as Sora began to run around the hallways to find where the man was.

"Oh Shut up...Just tell me where you are so I can come and..." Before Sora could finish his sentence, The footsteps stopped. "And what? Kill me? With the way you are? Your threats are now just pathetic..." Suddenly, without warning, Sora felt his feet wrap around as he slammed to the ground without realizing it. Soon, he began to be dragged around slowly around the building like a fisherman finally catching their fish. "I saw your actions closely...and with the way you hesitated to kill that man...You can't hope to defeat me let alone me accepting you back into the Lotus." The Boss said as Sora began to search for items to try and pry off the thing dragging him on the ground.

"You are so desperate...trying to protect everything close to you yet the person who clearly needs the most protection around here is actually you...Mr Minakaze." The Boss said, his voice echoing throughout the hallway as Sora finally managed to grab a stick and stabbed on the thing that was dragging him through the ground. Much to his surprise, Sora continued to be dragged around the floor as he got slammed into a wall in the process. "You may not know it yourself...But all human beings fear dying in general... they fear the day they die and no longer exist..."

As he spoke, Sora continued to be dragged around the ground like a rag doll in general, unable to figure out what was dragging him around the location. "Even you fear death deep inside Sora Minakaze... you are just human. But in order for people to know that fear...all you need to do is take away what they hold precious...what they hold dear." The boss continued as Sora's anger continued to grow more and more, wanting to retaliate at that moment but couldn't. "Just...JUST WHAT DO YOU WANT HUH!" Sora yelled as soon, he ended up in a room, completely covered in darkness as he was forced to stand up on his feet, forced closer as he soon came face to face two pairs of glowing eyes.

"All I want is more than you will ever understand..." The boss said, smashing Sora through the wall as Sora landed on the wet ground, soaking him in the rain once more as The Boss disappeared from view once more. "And someday...I will show it to you...My true goal for this sad world of ours..." The Boss said as his voice echoed at that. The Boss was no longer in the area, but Sora felt that he was so close to finding out everything, instead, all he got was even more frustration and confusion as another pair of footsteps were heard.

"Nii-san! Are you here!?" Marcus yelled as Sora didn't want to get up at that moment, closing his eyes and lying on the wet soil as Chikacho noticed Sora. "There he is!" Chikacho said as both Marcus and Chikacho ran to Sora out of concern as he continued to lay himself on the ground. "Are you alright Sora...Where is the scout that you were chasing after..." Chikacho asked as Sora didn't respond for a second, frustration boiling within him as he began to slam his fists on the soil. He continued to slam his fist on the ground as he began to cry out tears out of frustration.

Frustration about the current predicament that he was in...

Frustration about the fact that he and a couple of people only know about this predicament...

Frustration about himself in general...
