I have recently created a Facebook page for my petition. Just look up Rosario Vampire Anime Series Reboot (all one word) on Facebook and you should find it. Be sure to like it and use it to help spread the word.
Individual battles rage all over the Aono estate as the Aono family fights just to survive against forces from the Fairy Tale Remnant lead by the merciless Carl Reinfeldt whom all of the parents wanted dead more then any other. At the house, Omote is battling against the Golems that Carl sent down to destroy her barrier, her family's home and everything and everyone that got in their way. Naoya and Orihime rush off to find and get everyone else back to the house after Omote had asked them to do so since the battle's outcome was looking very bleak. On the other side of Carl's forces, Amaya and Nariko join the battle and fight against the Kamaitachi that were guarding their rear. At the beach, Fubuki, Setsura and Yukiko struggle against the Nagas that attacked them right after fighting off the Kappas that almost succeeded in drowning all of them. In the woods, Takeshi managed to take care of most of his attackers, but burned himself out in the process. Just as he was about to slip away to catch his breath, he sees the Trolls capture his little sister Orihime and Takeshi reflexively shouts out without thinking.
Chapter 25: Fighting Blind
In the Woods
March 7, 2017
"Orihime!" yelled Takeshi.
Takeshi immediately realizes that he had just revealed his own position and that all of the Trolls were now looking right at him. Now they were all in big trouble.
"There were two brats?"
"Just get both of them you idiots!"
Two Trolls immediately rush towards Takeshi.
"Oh crap, what do we do now Takeshi-sama?" So-chan asked.
Takeshi grabs Sora and…
"What are you doiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing?"
…Throws him up into a tree and…
SMACK!
…Sora hit his head on a small branch, but is able to grab onto and cling to it.
"You stay up there So-chan! You can't do anymore down here!"
"Takeshi-samaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
Takeshi ignored So-chan's cries and charged straight at the two Trolls that were rushing towards him. Just before they all collided, Takeshi fell onto his back and let his momentum carry him forward on the smooth grass before…
GROOOOOOOOOOR!
…Kicking both of his feet into the first Troll's crouch as hard as he could. With his momentum now gone, and the Troll doubling over in pain on top of him, Takeshi hurriedly crawled out from under him, only to be pinned and crushed underneath a Troll's foot again.
"I am really going to enjoy killing someone as strong as you!" the second Troll gloated over him.
Being face-down in the dirt again, there was little Takeshi could do as he was being ground into the dirt again. If something was not done and soon, then he would be right back where he was before with absolutely no chance of surviving it this time.
"You little pest!" the Troll angrily shouts.
The Troll swatted around his head after Sora scratched at his eyes with the claws on his feet. As a result from his moving around to try to get him, his weight shifted back-and-forth and gave Takeshi an idea. He waited until the Troll's body weight shifted away from his pinned body and with every ounce of strength he could muster he pulled himself out from underneath the Troll's foot as quickly as he could and started running.
I need a weapon! Takeshi thought.
Looking around, he sees something that would do the trick, grabs it, and then turns around. The Troll that just had him pinned was now running towards him. When he gets close to him, Takeshi jumps up, swings his weapon of opportunity and with both hands…
BASH!
…Hits him on the left side of his head with the severed Troll arm he was now using as a club and knocks him to the ground. Takeshi then runs forward and past the downed Troll, not bothering to stop and finish him off. He is running straight for Orihime.
Looking ahead, he sees that the other Troll that he had nut-checked earlier who was now back on his feet and running towards him with an extremely angry expression on his face. Just before they collide, Takeshi moves to slide underneath him again and the Troll punches the ground in front of him in anticipation of him doing that again. It was a fake-out. Instead of going under him, Takeshi jumps up, runs up his arm…
SMACK!
…Hit him in the face with the severed arm he was still holding, leapt off of his back and hit the ground running.
"Onii-san!" called Orihime.
"Shut up you little brat!" the Troll yelled in her face after bringing her close to his.
SWISH!
OWWW!
The Troll dropped her and his eyes teared up after she kicked him square in his nose.
"Thanks for getting close to me you big meanie! Now know your place!"
Orihime jumped up and…
DOMPH!
…Kicked his chin up and knocked his head back.
"…Ouch… that hurt you little brat!" the Troll yells at her as his head comes back up. "Did you honestly believe that a little squirt like you could really take me on? Hah! Don't make me laugh!"
Infuriated, Orihime tries to give him a jump kick, but…
SMACK!
…He slaps her aside…
WAAAAAH!
THUNK!
…She hits a tree trunk back first, hard.
BLAUGH!
She coughs up blood and falls to the ground, still coughing. She feels a wave of pain in her chest with each breath she takes.
Oh no… she thought. He hit me in the same places as those mean Ogres did. But now I don't have Onii-chan here like I did before. Maybe he was right. Maybe I was pushing myself too hard and taking too many risks. I wish you were here right now, Onii-chan.
Tears runs down both of her dirty and bloody cheeks.
"You're so dead you brat!"
The Troll stood over her with both of his hands raised over his head, ready to pound her into a small, bloody mess. She tried to get up and get out of the way, but her body ached with pain every time she tried to move her muscles and wouldn't work right.
"Die!"
"Onii-chan!" she screams.
CRASH!
A cloud of dust rose up after the Troll's fists came down.

The Beach
Fubuki, Setsura, and Yukiko breathe hard as they continue fighting. They had been fighting to the fullest of their abilities and had managed to take several of the Nagas down. Unfortunately, the Kappas had freed their frozen brethren from their icy prisons and then jumped out of the water for a rematch with the girls, making it even harder for the already heavily outnumbered girls.
There were now three Nagas and nine Kappas left, but the three of them were all almost completely exhausted and were dangerously over-heating. Yuki'Onna need to always watch their temperatures when they are in warmer climates so that they never get too hot. A hot Yuki'Onna is a weak Yuki'Onna and will not last long under normal circumstances when it is hot, much less an all-out battle. The fact that this was an unusually warm day to begin with did not help matters either. All three of them had already passed that point and were now fighting a losing battle and they knew it.
Even so, they had no choice. They were completely surrounded and could not escape. It might've been possible for one of them to get away on their own, but it would have been impossible for all three of them to make it out of there and none of them were willing to abandon either one of their sisters no matter what. Right now, they are all trying to catch their breaths during a short lull in the fighting with all three of them having their backs to each other.
"…Haa… …haa… …are you two… …haa… …okay?" Fubuki asked her sisters.
"…Been… …haa… …better," Setsura answered.
"…I'm… …haa… …too… …haa… …hot," Yukiko stated.
"…Same here..." Fubuki replied "…We need to figure something out and soon…"
"Get the girlies!"
The remaining Kappas come at the girls from all sides all at once. They were going to finish them off for good this time.
GYAAAH!
Hearing a scream from behind some of them, all of them and the girls turn around to see what had happened. They all see a red-eyed and angry Naoya still clutching the Naga fang that he had ripped out of an already dead Naga's mouth, reached around from behind to plunge into another Naga's chest and let him fall to the ground.
"Next!" Naoya shouted in a mocking tone.
"You sssneaky brat!" one of the Nagas shouts.
"We'll kill you for that!"
The two remaining Nagas attack him from both sides at once. Naoya then disappears, reappears right in front of one of them, and clotheslines him, knocking him back and down. As the Naga gets back up, Naoya brings his elbow down on top of his head, temporarily stunning him. Naoya then reached into the Naga's mouth, grabbed his fangs…
AAAHHHHH!
…Ripped them out of his mouth and…
GYAAAAACK!
…Stabbed him on both sides of his neck with his own fangs.
Just like what mom taught us, Naoya thought. When you're in a life or death struggle, the only kind of enemy that can't hurt anyone is a dead enemy. Either you kill them, or they'll kill you.
Naoya turned around and saw that the other Naga was right in front of him with his mouth wide open, fangs out and dripping with venom. Naoya then ducks down, gives him an uppercut square on his chin and both of the Naga's fangs snaps from the impact.
Rushing over to him to finish him off, the Naga surprises Naoya in his hastiness. As he gets close to him, the Naga spits his venom at Naoya and it gets into his eyes. It painfully burns them and seconds later, he realizes what had really just happened. Seeing nothing but black, Naoya realizes that he was now blind. [*1]
As Naoya tries to wipe as much of the venom out of his eyes, the Naga wraps his tail around the now blind Naoya and…
AHHH!
…Starts squeezing the life out of him.
"Onii-san!" shouts Fubuki.
"Hang on!"
"We'll help you!"
The triplets start moving towards Naoya, but the Kappas quickly block their path.
"Girlies going nowhere!" one of the Kappas told them. "Get them!"
The Kappas attack them yet again, but the girls keep charging forward regardless.
"It's now or never everyone!"
"Hikami no Ha!"
Fubuki uses the last of her youki to recreate her blade on her arm.
"Hikami Naginata!"
Setsura creates one last Naginata since this is going to be their final round for them.
"Hikami Sakura!"
Yukiko lays down covering fire for them as best as she can with what little energy she has left and forms Ice Kunai in both of her hands since she was almost out of youki and would need them very shortly. They all leap into the fray one last time.
"Fangs or not, I bet you will still tassssste good going down you feisssssty boy," the Naga quietly said to Naoya.
"Why don't you come over here and say that to me face-to-face?" Naoya strained to say.
"Haas, haas, haas," he laughed. "You are a funny one."
The Naga continues to laugh as he swings his large head in front of Naoya's face and sways it side-to-side to help throw him off.
"Too bad you can't hit what you can't see, you little-"
GAH!
Naoya hits the side of his head and knocks it to the side. Dazed, the Naga loosens his grip and Naoya springs from his coils and as the Naga tries to get up, Naoya catches him hard in his chin with a running knee kick and knocks his body back down.
Turning around, Naoya rushes back to him as he tries to get back up again. He then collides into him from behind, wraps his legs around the Naga's body with his arms tightly around his neck and…
SNAP!
…Pulls his head all the way back until his neck breaks with a loud snap.
It's too bad for you "scaly butt, Naoya thought. But I actually specialize in fighting blind!
Aside from his extensive hand-to-hand training in multiple human martial arts, Naoya also trained himself to fight blind by detecting his enemy's youki in battle. Given the fact that an ayashi's youki fluctuates wildly in the heat of battle, this is no easy task (especially if there is more then one enemy). Unfortunately, he has to be very careful when blind fighting with others since he cannot tell them apart cannot from just their youki alone.
After throwing the Naga's body aside, Naoya started running towards the mass of youki and yelled aloud.
"Get out of the way girls!"
All three of the girls look up and see their big brother coming. They realize what he was saying and all of them jump back. Naoya then leaps into the mass of youki that was the now seven remaining Kappas.
He punches the first one's head straight into the sand, crushing it like a melon. He punches two more on either side of him in their stomachs, feels another grab him from behind, thrusts his head back, hitting him hard in the face. Reeling from the hit, the Kappa steps back and Naoya grabs his ankles and swings him on top of another Kappa's head.
"Get out of the way, Onii-san!"
Heading his sister's warning, Naoya jumps back.
"Hikami Sakura!"
Yukiko hits the Kappas with her technique to support her brother.
"Hikami Kiri!"
Fubuki squeezes out just enough energy to do her own technique to give Naoya an advantage. Since he was good at fighting blind, the zero visibility would work in his favor along with the chance of freezing some of them solid in the process.
"Thanks, little sisters!"
He leapt into the partial mist (since Fubuki did not have enough energy to do it fully) and immediately hit a Kappa on the shoulder with his left elbow and sends him reeling backwards with a right hook. Seeing that the rest of the Kappas were all ganging up on him, Naoya thrusts his arm straight down and...
"Bakuryuujin!"[*2]
...He uses the youjutsu that his father had taught him to blow back the Kappas and blind them with all the sand that he just blasted into their eyes at the same time.
He then grabs two of them by their ankles and tosses them up into the air.
"Here you go girls!" he yelled.
He then senses that a number of Ice Kunai hit both of them and they lifelessly fall to the ground.
Naoya is knocked forward as a Kappa tackled and immediately put him into a choke-hold with a vice-like grip then squeezes as hard as he can.
I… can't… breathe…!
Naoya detects the other Kappas coming towards him.

Carl's Forces
"Nekoshou, are you sure?" William shouted in surprise.
"Definitely," Hajna replied.
"Nekoshou, huh…? Sounds interesting," Carl said. "They're an almost extinct species with many talents and abilities. I would very much like to take both of them home with me if possible. I can always use more pets to play with."
William looks back and notices something.
"Oh, something else is going on over this way boss."
William watches as the house's barrier finally breaks and shatters.
"That's it boss, their barrier's down."
"Then now we press the advantage William. Send in the 6th Squad."
"Roger dodger boss, but what about the 8th boys behind us?"
"Leave them be. Surely they can handle a couple of little cat girls."
"Alright, boss."
After he gives them their orders, the 6th Squad sheds their human forms and takes off towards the house. Watching them fly away, Carl quietly talks to himself.
"This will be the end for these Aono's and if Melvin actually comes through for us in Siberia then that will be it for all of them. The battle is once again, mine."
Behind Carl's Forces
Both Nariko and Amaya fall to the ground, covered in cuts and blood. A short distance away, the three brothers all return to their true forms to properly view their handiwork.
Looking themselves over, both of the girls realize that even though they were covered in cuts and blood their torsos are not harmed. Only their arms and legs had been cut up, and those wounds where not at all deep. As they both stand back up however, all of their clothes fall to the ground in pieces.
KYYYYYAAAAAAA!
Amaya screams, crouches down and tries to cover herself with her hands while Nariko just stands there.
"Oh yeah baby, that's what daddy likes!" Shou shouted.
"Shake it baby!" Saburou called.
"Both powerful and a real feast for the eyes, it's a good day to be alive my brothers, hahaha," Shun laughed.
"Y-y-y-you lousy perverted wind weasels! You're all hentai's!"
"…Hentai's must die."
Nariko grabbed all three of the brother's weapons and flung them at the brothers.
"Child's play," Shun confidently said.
They all caught their weapons and…
ZAAAAAAAAAAAP! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
…All of them were zapped by the residual electric current that Nariko had charged their metallic weapons with before throwing them.
SIZZLE! SIZZLE! SIZZLE!
THUD! THUD! THUD!
All three brothers sizzle as they fall to the ground.
"Nice one, Nariko."
"…There are three more of them coming this way, Nee-sama."
Looking behind her, Amaya sees the last three Kamaitachi (that are still standing) cautiously walking towards them.
"I hate having to fight naked like this, but…"
"…It doesn't bother me."
"Well it should!"
"…Why?"
"Agh, just forget about it. Let's just finish these guys off with our combo attack."
"…If you say so, Nee-sama."
Nariko walks forward and focuses her ki into her right fist.
"Daichi Supuritta!" she yelled out. [*3]
KABOOM!
Hitting the ground, it violently shook and split apart in the direction of their enemies. Seeing what she was doing, all three of them created wind gusts and rode them up and away from the ground.
"Kaze Suraisā!"
As soon as they stop, they see one massive wave of wind coming right at them and try to dodge it, but it was too late. The wave was too close and fast for them to dodge it and all three of them got hit. Six half's of them fell to the ground.
"That's it for them then."
"…Not quite, Nee-sama."
"What do you mean?"
"…Look."
Amaya looked in the direction that Nariko was pointing in and saw the perverted trio get back up.
"…I was only able to knock them out with that trick, Nee-sama."
"Then why didn't you say anything about it!"
"…I just did."
Amaya angrily growled to herself and turned toward the perverted trio to deal with them again.
"You two girls really know how to light up a guy's life, huh, tit-a-licious?" Shun asked Amaya in a flirtatious tone.
"I am going to kill the three of you the old fashioned way!"
Now seriously pissed, Amaya put her sword back in the bamboo container she had slung across her back and…
"…Don't do it, Nee-sama!"
"What the hell…?" Shun asked himself.
…She transformed into her true form, a large black cat. She then silently charges forward towards them with her intense killing intent showing in her eyes. [*4]
"Scatter!" Shun yelled.
The three of them dodge her first attack, but then she leaps after Shou. Seeing her about to catch up to him, Shou tries to escape.
"Hitotsu-fū!" he yelled.
He melted into his gust again and tried to get away, but…
SLASH!
GWAUH!
…She slashed at him. A short distance away, Shou hits the ground rolling after getting hit by Amaya's claws that had her own Ki running through them.
"Little brother!" yelled Shun.
"Big brother!" called Saburou.
The other two rush to their brother's defense. Amaya crouched low to get ready to pounce on them.
"Kill! Kill!"
"…Nee-sama, change back! Please come back to me!"
"Kiiiiill!"

The Front Yard
SHATTER!
"Oh no!" an even more distressed Omote quietly said to herself as a feeling of impending doom washed over her.
Omote and Gin both watch in disbelief as the Home Defense Barrier shatters all around them. Immediately after that happens, the Golems start to walk forward toward the house and everyone else.
"Gin, we have to hold them off until the rest of the kids get back!"
"Alright Omote, we'll just have to do what we can until they get here."
Gin runs forward, transforms, jumps onto a Golem...
"Ouch!"
…And tries punching its head.
"Okay, bad idea," he tells himself.
Gin then jumps past them and runs forward.
I can't do anything to those things directly, Gin thought. But if I can take out the summoner then all of his summons should disappear too. I just need to find and take him out just as quickly as I can. Every second counts now!
He is half-way to his goal when he sees a number of creatures flying towards him and the house.
Who the hell are these guys?
When they get close, Gin feels an ear-splitting screech go right through his sensitive ears and grabs them in an effort to keep the sound out. Some of them then swoop down towards him and he recognizes what they are.
"Harpies?" he yells. [*5]
To be continued…
Note #1: Some cobras, along with many other species of snakes, have the ability to spit their venom at other animals. While only deadly if it is directly injected into the bloodstream, if it is spat into someone's eyes, it will cause a quick but intense burning sensation and then temporary blindness. Normally, it will only last for a few hours depending on how much venom got into their eyes.
Note #2: Bakuryuujin - It is the anti-air youjutsu that Tsukune used in Season 2, Chapter 43.
Note #3: Daichi Supuritta or Earth Splitter – An Earth-style Senjutsu where Nariko gathers her Ki into her fist, punches the ground, sends her Ki through it in the direction of her target, violently shaking the ground, and quickly splits it apart in a straight line running to her target. If her target should fall into the fissure, then she would be able to jump down after them and then they would be at her mercy of her small but extremely deadly fists or collapse the sides in on top of them and bury them alive.
Note #4: A Nekoshou's True Form – Even though it is a much more powerful form, the girls try their best to not fight in it at all since it has a very big drawback. While they are fighting in their true forms, it is not difficult for them to lose themselves in the battle and bloodshed and then run amok. The more they fight, the more they lose themselves in it and eventually they will go berserk. If that should happen, then they will no longer be able to tell friend or foe apart and just kill everything in sight. In which case, the only option left would be to put them down.
Note #5: Monsters Dictionary: Harpies - In Greek mythology, a harpy (Greek: ἅρπυια, harpyia; Latin: harpeia) was one of the winged spirits best known for constantly stealing all food from Phineus (a king of Thrace in Greek mythology). The literal meaning of the word seems to be "that which snatches" as it comes from the ancient Greek word harpazein (ἁρπάζειν), which means "to snatch." They are essentially a race of bird-women and like Lamias they are an all-female race. While their looks (in regards to beauty) may vary, one thing that does not is that since they have to be light enough to fly (and occasionally abduct a male for mating), they have thin, petite body frames. They also have razor-sharp talons on their feet and are faster then a Werewolf (except when the moon is full). Werewolves are the fastest land ayashi (like the cheetah), but Harpies are among the fastest air ayashi (like the falcon). They also have some basic sound-based attacks.
