Chapter 24 Normal P.O.V
It has been a few weeks since the incident with Wild Hunt and the three Night Raid members who fought them have been recovering. The elimination of Wild Hunt doesn't seem to have any impact on the Empire which made everyone depress slightly but the Revolution army do have more Teigus in their possession. Currently Tatsumi along side Akame are training together in the training grounds being watch by Tatsulot (who is in her mini form). It was when Tatsulot heard footsteps that she turned her head to see Sheele walking towards Tatsulot. "Hello Tatsulot, how are you?" Sheele asked the little Teigu.
Tatsulot gave a small roar in reply causing Sheele to smile. "That's good to hear." Sheele said before she sat next to Tatsulot and watch Tatsumi and Akame duel. "Those two are a perfect pair, both skilled assassins and great cooks." Sheele said being amazed by the speed that Tatsumi's and Akame's wooden swords are going. "You think so too." A voice suddenly said causing Sheele and to jump slightly and her glasses fall off. "My glasses." Sheele said as she put her hands on the ground in attempt to find them. Tatsulot grab the glasses in her jaws and hold them out for Sheele to pick them up.
"Thank you Tatsulot." Sheele said as she put her glasses back on and look who spoke. "Oh hello Mien." Sheele said smiling at the master sniper of Night Raid. "Hello Sheele. So what bring you here?" Mien asked causing Sheele to think. "I don't know really. I just think that it would be a good to see those two." Sheele said referring to the two training assassins. "Is that so." Mien said as she also looked at the two. "I wonder what sort of life those two will lead after the revolution?...with Tatsulot as well." Sheele said smiling sheepishly at Tatsulot who was glaring at her slightly. "That...is a good question to ask Sheele. I wonder what everyone else will do as well." Mien said with a frown.
"What are you going to do Mien?" Sheele asked causing Mien to look surprised. "I don't know really. I could help with keeping relations between the Revolution army and the western tribe strong." Mien replied causing Sheele to hum. "That makes sense, since your half tribal." Sheele said causing Mien to nod her head slightly before looking at Sheele. "So what are you going to do yourself?" Mien asked causing Sheele to think. "Hmmm. I don't have anything to go back to so...I could come and help you Mien." Sheele replied causing Mien's eyes to widen and a smile appeared on her lips. "Thanks Sheele, that would be great." Mien said causing Sheele to smile as well.
Tatsulot looked at the two girls with a smile herself before turning her head to see Tatsumi and Akame finishing their duel. "Oh! Sheele, Mien. Were you watching us?" Tatsumi asked as he and Akame approach Tatsulot, Mien and Sheele. "Sort of." Mien said in her usual tone of voice. "You two must have training hard." Sheele said as she saw that Tatsumi was sweating slightly. "Oh yeah, Sheele can you pass a towel please?" Tatsumi asked referring to the pile of towels that are a few feet away from Sheele. "Oh, sure." Sheele replied as she picked up a towl and stood up to give it Tatsumi.
However Sheele tripped, causing her to fall into Tatsumi and both of them fall onto the ground. "Owch, I'm such a klutz. Tatsumi are you al..." Sheele began to ask but began to panic when she saw that Tatsumi's face is trap right in her breasts. "Ahhhh! I'm so sorry Tatsumi!" Sheele shouted as she quickly got off him causing Tatsumi to sit bolt up and starting to breath heavily. "I'm sorry Akame." Sheele said bowing to the red eye girl after she handed Tatsumi the towel. "It's okay Sheele. It was an accident." Akame said causing Sheele to sigh in relief that she won't feel the wraith of a possessive Akame.
"So how is your training?" Mien asked whilst examining the two. "It went okay. I can see huge improvements from when Tatsumi first join Night Raid and now." Akame replied and it was then that Akame's stomach decided to let it presence known. "Can you keep that Stomach of yours in check please?" Mien asked to a blushing Akame whilst the other three laugh. "Sorry. I think Susanoo is making lunch at the moment, I go and help him." Akame said as she began to walk towards the kitchen. "Does anyone know where all the food that Akame eats goes?" Tatsumi whispered to the the two girls.
I think it better if you don't find out that answer Tatsumi." Mien replied with a small smirk. "I always presume that Akame's stomach is just one giant hole." Sheele said causing the other three Night Raid members to sweat-drop.

Meanwhile in the Capital, Chelsea and Lubbock are in the "Book of the Night", observing the on going events in the Capital. Nothing of interest is worth reporting back to base except that the two Night Raid members could tell that there is a thick tension in the atmosphere due to the approaching revolution. Leone wasn't with them because the Jeagers saw her face so it will not be safe for her to wonder the streets.
"So, slow progress as usual." Chelsea asked as she looked at a book. "Yep, the behavior from the citizens in the Capital is the same as usual." Lubbock replied and after a few minutes, Chelsea gained a smirk. "I guess that when the revolution comes to, the citizens will revolt as well. That could help with Revolution army's victory." Chelsea said causing Lubbock to smirk as well.
"I guess your right about that. Chelsea...what are you going to do after the revolution?" Lubbock asked causing Chelsea to look up from the book that she is reading with a thinking. "Hmmmmmm. I don't know really. I could help with the Revolution army or I could return back to the town that I came from before I joined the Revolution army's assassination unit and lead a quiet life." Chelsea replied before looking at Lubbock. "For me...I will help Najenda with improving the new nation." Lubbock said and saw that Chelsea smirking. "What?" Lubbock asked looking at Chelsea confusedly.
"Well, I thought that you might get a girlfriend at the same time." Chelsea replied causing Lubbock to blush slightly "Well I might, if I find the right girl that I like." Lubbock said shyly before hearing the door to the shop opening. When Lubbock and Chelsea looked towards the door, they became surprised when they saw that nobody is there. "Did someone enter the shop?" Lubbock asked confusedly and it was then that Chelsea notice something. "Hey. Someone left a letter." Chelsea said as she got up from the chair that she is sitting on and went over to wear she saw the letter and looked at who it is for.
"That's strange." Chelsea said causing Lubbock to come over and looked over Chelsea's shoulder. "The letter is for Akame and Kurome? How did sender know that this shop connected to Night Raid?" Lubbock asked and the question made both of the tense. "Anyway, we better deliver this to them." Chelsea replied causing Lubbock to nod his head before the two of them prepared to leave.

It is early afternoon, we can see Kurome in the hot springs, enjoying the heat that is coming off the water. "This feels so great. I don't want to leave and stay here forever." Kurome thought with a peaceful expression on her face and closed eyes. However that disappeared when she heard the door that lead to the hot springs open. "Who's there?" Kurome said as her expression change into that of seriousness. "If that you Lubbock then I will personally put Masamune in a place that will be very painful for you." Kurome said as a hand slowly drifts towards her Teigu that is sitting on the edge of the hot springs.
"Wow Kurome I didn't know that you were such a sadist." A voice suddenly said causing Kurome to jump in surprise. When she turned around she saw Leone in the water and laughing. "L-Leone?! What are you doing here?" Kurome said still in a state of shock. "Oh, I just thought that you need some company." Leone replied as her laughter died away. "O-okay." Kurome said before becoming completely calm. "So how is your relationship with Wave been doing?" Leone suddenly asked causing Kurome to become surprised. "W-where did that question came from?" Kurome asked as tint of red appeared on her cheeks.
"Not sure really, just something to ask." Leone replied causing Kurome to relax slightly. "Well it not been going far with us being on different sides..." Kurome began to explained causing Leone's curiosity to rise. "...But I hope that something can happen when the revolution is over." Kurome finished causing Leone to nod her head slightly. "Leone...what are you going to do after the revolution?" Kurome asked as she looked at the sky. "Not sure really. I guess go back to the slums and help out." Leone replied causing Kurome to look at her.
"So your not planning on falling in love and have a family?" Kurome asked causing Leone to look surprise. "What give you that idea! I'm not sure that I'm the romantic type of person." Leone replied in a unsure tone of voice. "May be you are or may be your not. You won't know if you don't try." Kurome said causing Leone to shrug her shoulders. "So what are you planning to do after the revolution Kurome? Confess your love to Wave?" Leone said whilst smirking causing Kurome to blush slightly. "Well, me and Wave...already confess to each already." Kurome replied shyly causing Leone to stare at Kurome in surprised.
"W-when was this?!" Leone shouted in surprised causing Kurome to blush more. "It was two days after the battle between Bro and Esdeath." Kurome replied and it was then that Leone gained a huge smirk. "Oh I can't wait for when Akame and the others will find out about this." Leone said still grinning causing Kurome's blush to turn darker. "Please don't." Kurome said weakly and it was then that the door opened again. "Kurome, are you here?" A voice asked causing the two girls to look who spoke.
"What's wrong Sis?" Kurome asked looking at her older sister who has a conserned look on her face. "There's something that I need to talk about with you." Akame replied and it was then that Akame notice the smirk on Leone's mouth. "Is there something wrong Leone?" Akame asked looking confused. "Well Kurome here..." Leone was about to reply but Kurome slap a hand over the older girl's mouth. Kurome send a glare at Leone who still has that mischievous look in her eyes. "I'm I missing something here?" Akame asked looking at the two girls confusedly.
"It's nothing Sis. I will be with you in a minute." Kurome said to her sister who nodded before walking out of the door. Kurome got out of the hot springs and got changed. When she walked into the base, Kurome saw her Akame waiting for her. "What do you want to talk about?" Kurome asked and it was then that she has a slightly serious look on her face. "It's better if we speak in private." Akame replied causing her younger sister to nod her head before walking down the hallway. After a few minutes of walking, the two sisters arrived outside Akame's bedroom and the two enter the room.
"When Lubbock and Chelsea were in the Capital, they were given a letter which is adress to the both of us." Akame explained causing Kurome to become curious as she watch Akame take out a letter from a pocket and handed it to Kurome. "Dear Akame and Kurome. Let finish this where it all began." Kurome read aloud looking confused before realizing something. "This is Julia's handwriting, isn't it?" Kurome asked causing Akame to nod her head. "That's correct. I guess that Julia want a final duel with the two of us." Akame replied causing Kurome to become tense before looking at the letter again.
"But where do we find her?" Kurome asked, trying to think where Julia want to them. "Where the two us first meet her. At that assassin's base near the Capital." Akame replied causing Kurome's eyes to widen before closing them slightly. "I guess that makes sense. So are we going to tell anyone?" Kurome asked causing Akame to shake her head. "No, I think it's better if the others think that the we are out hunting." Akame replied causing Kurome to become sad slightly. "What about Bro?" Kurome asked causing Akame to have a conflicted look on her face.
"I...think it better if Tatsumi doesn't know either." Akame replied after a few minutes of thinking. "So let get ready then Sis. To meet Julia for the last time." Kurome said causing her older sister to nod her head.

Tatsumi can't find Akame or Kurome. He want to speak Akame about something but he can't find her and when he tried to find Kurome to see if she knows where Akame went but he can't find her either. "Where did those two went?" Tatsumi thought whilst scratching his head before looking at Tatsulot who was equally confused. It was when the two Night Raid members enter the kitchen that they saw Lubbock. "Hey Lubbock, do you know where Akame and Kurome are because I can't find them?" Tatsumi asked causing Lubbock to look at him. "Hello Tatsumi. To answer your question, they went off hunting." Lubbock replied causing Tatsumi to look confused.
"I wonder why Akame didn't asked me to come with her and Kurome?" Tatsumi asked causing Lubbock to gain a smirk. "Oh, did you want some quality time with Akame?" Lubbock asked causing Tatsumi to blush slightly and Tatsulot laughed slightly. "Shut up Lubbock." Tatsumi replied causing Lubbock to rise his hands in surrender. "Sorry, sorry but I just hand to say it." Lubbock said with a smile before he started to frown making Tatsumi confuse. "But there something else though that seem to trouble the two of them." Lubbock said making Tatsumi and Tatsulot to look at him.
"When me and Chelsea were in the Capital, we were given a letter that was address to the Akame and Kurome." Lubbock began to explain making Tatsumi and Tatsulot to become curious. "When we show Akame the letter, she look grim once she read it and went off to find Kurome." Lubbock finish explaining causing Tatsumi to frown slightly. "Do you know what made Akame grim?" Tatsumi asked causing Lubbock to think. "Not sure exactly, but Akame did mutter something about Julia." Lubbock replied causing Tatsumi's and Tatsulot's eyes to widen slightly.
"Lubbock, how long ago did Akame and Kurome left?" Tatsumi asked and Lubbock could hear the urgent tone in Tatsumi's voice. "About ten fifteen minutes ago, why?" Lubbock asked as he watch Tatsumi and Tatsulot nod at each other before walking towards the door. "Me and Tatsulot are going to follow them." Tatsumi replied before disappearing leaving Lubbock confused.

It was early evening and the sun can be seen slowly descending in the sky. The two black hair sisters can be seen walking towards a church that is in ruins. "Ready Kurome?" Akame asked her little sister as they approach the door. "I'm...ready." Kurome said as she shake the fear out her body before nodding at her older sister. Akame gave a nod her own before pushing the door opened. The two girls crept into the building whilst putting a hand on their Teigus just in case Julia decided to attack them right there. The two girls felt tense due the quietness and after a few minutes, Kurome started to feel a bit cold for some reason.
"You always have good tastes Kurome" A voice said causing Kurome to yelp in surprise and Akame quickly turned towards her younger sister whilst drawing Murasame and swinging it towards the person who was lifting up Kurome's skirt. However the figure quickly dodge Mursame and seemly disappeared causing Akame to become confuse. The confuse turned into surprise when Akame felt a hand grasp one of her breasts. "They seem to have develop since the last time I see." The voice said again and it was Kurome who attacked the figure and like last time, the figure jump out of the sword's path. "I always like the reaction that you two make when I do that to the both of you." The figure said now in front of the two black girls.
"Julia." Akame and Kurome said at the same time when they saw a familiar brown hair, blue eye girl. Both girls got into a battle stance but Julia giggled slightly. "Come on now, why don't we have a chat first before doing the fighting?" Julia asked whilst smiling causing both black hair girls to look at each other. After a few seconds the two of them nod their heads before walking towards one of the benches that sat in rows. "Want one?" Julia asked the two girls whilst holding out a packet of chocolates. Despite the tense feeling, two girls took a few each and started to eat them.
"So...how's your boyfriend doing Akame, last I heard Tatsumi had fallen unconscious due to that fuse Teigu?" Julia asked causing Akame to stop eating. "Tatsumi has made a full recovery." Akame replied making Julia smile slightly. "That good to hear. So Kurome, how did you survive that fall hmmm?" Julia asked whilst looking at Kurome who also stop eating her chocolates. "I used my Teigu's ability to slow down my fall and grab onto one of the rocks that was jutting out of the cliff before hitting the water." Kurome replied causing Julia to nod her head.
It was then that Julia realize something. "Wait...your Chloe right?" Julia asked causing Kurome to become tense slightly before nodding her head. "I guess Wave will be upset when he hear that I kill you." Julia said which made Kurome widen her eyes whilst gripping the helm of her skirt. "I think we should move onto a different subject Julia." Akame said as she looked at younger sister worriedly and she saw that Kurome is shaking slightly.
"Okay." Julia said before looking at the ceiling. "It seem like yesterday that the three of met for the first time. Do you you remember Akame, Kurome?" Julia asked causing both the two black hair sisters to nod their heads whilst thinking back.
Flashback (start)
"So where is the person that we suppose to meet?" Kurome asked her older sister who shook her head in reply. "I don't know Kurome, but they are taking their time to get here." Akame said whilst looking at the path that leads towards the Capital. The two black hair sisters are much younger then they are now and the major difference is that Akame is wearing white clothes instead her usual black clothes and Kurome is wearing dark blue uniform-like clothes. "If they are like this then they are un-effective assassin then." Kurome said whilst eating a sweet and Akame nodded her head in agreement. It was then that Kurome felt cold for some reason.
"I see that you have good tastes." A voice said which cause Kurome and Akame to turn their heads to see who spoke. Kurome began to blush deeply when she saw a younger Julia lifting up her skirt. "Let go of me this instant pervert!" Kurome shouted in anger before swinging her sword towards Julia, however Julia suddenly disappeared making both girls confused. It was then that Akame felt a hand on one of her breasts. "Hmmm, they are a okay size but need a few years growing in my opinion." Julia said and after a few seconds Akame began to blush as well. "Die!" Akame shouted before attacking Julia with her Shingu.
However Julia jumped out of the sword's path and appeared in front of the two girls and began to laugh whilst rolling on the ground. "If only you can see the expressions on your faces, they're hilarious." Julia said still laughing but stop when she saw two swords pointing directly at her face. "You have five seconds to say who you are before we kill you." Akame said glaring at Julia and Kurome nodded in agreement also glaring at Julia.
"O-okay, my name is Julia and I'm your partner." Julia said, introducing herself to the two sisters making them drop their weapons slightly. "Y-your our partner?" Kurome asked whilst having wide eyes. "Yep." Julia said whilst having a smile on her face. "My name is Akame and this is Kurome, my younger sister." Akame said, introducing herself and Kurome to Julia who was getting off the ground. "Hello then and sorry for my actions." Julia said whilst smiling sheepishly but Akame and Kurome are still eyeing her making Julia nervous slightly.
"Oh yeah, I brought these along. I hope you like them." Julia said whilst taking out a packet of chocolates and both black hair girls stared at the packet for a few seconds. "...Welcome." Both Akame and Kurome said at the same time whilst smiling causing Julia to smile as well.
Flashback (end)
"That was the good times. The three of us going on missions together and creating memories..." Julia said making Akame and Kurome think more about their pasts with Julia. "...But then you decided to leave and join the Revolution army." Julia said making both black hair girls tense. "...We did ask you to join us." Akame said quietly but Julia didn't seem to hear her. "I guess that at some point in our lives we have to walk separate paths." Julia said and suddenly Akame and Kurome felt the atmosphere in the room change dramatically.
"Now then...shall we get started?" Julia asked as she got off her seat causing both sisters to do the same and stood facing each other. Acting as one person, the three girls draw their Teigus at the same time and stood in complete silence, waiting for one of them to make the first move. The one to make the first move is Julia who charge at them and Akame blocked the first attack, creating a opening for Kurome who took the opportunity to strike. However Julia jump back to avoid the blade of Masamune. Deciding that they need more room, both Akame and Kurome run towards the entrance of the church.
Kurome jumped out of the circular window that was located above the door whilst Akame dashed out of the doors. Julia decided to follow Kurome and she was about to attack her whilst still in the air but Julia realized that Akame is below her causing Julia to block Murasame instead. Once Julia landed on the ground and created some space between her, Akame and Kurome, she charge at them again and before long the three assassins seem to dance as they battle against each other. "Just what I expected from the former members of the Elite Seven and the Group of terror..." Julia said as Teigus clash together. "...But I'm also a skilled assassin." Julia said as she kick Kurome in the stomach and jab her elbow also into Akame's stomach.
"Kurome are you okay?" Akame asked as she breath deeply due to the pain that she receive. "I'm fine Sis. That hurt a lot." Kurome replied as got off the ground. "Ready?" Akame asked again, seeing that her younger sister is standing okay. "I'm ready." Kurome replied and both girls were about to charge at Julia again but a blond hair male suddenly appeared next to Julia. "Natala." Kurome said quietly looking at her "deceased" spear-wielding friend. "Let make this a fair fight shall we?" Julia asked with a smirk on her lips.
Akame looked at Kurome and saw her shaking slightly. "Do you want me to fight Natala?" The red-eye girl asked, guessing why Kurome is shaking. "No, I'll be fine." The black-eye girl replied but Akame can tell that she was hesitant. "So shall we continue?" Julia asked causing all four of them to charge at each other.
Line Break
Tatsumi and Tatsulot are wondering around the woods, having followed Akame and Kurome but then lost them. "Still can't find them?" Tatsumi asked as Tatsulot landed back onto the ground. Tatsulot shook her head causing Tatsumi to sigh worriedly. "Where did those two go to. I know it has something to do with Julia but where would they be?" Tatsumi thought and it was then that Tatsulot became tense and growled in a direction. "Tatsulot, what wrong?" Tatsumi asked as he place a hand on Incursio's key. After a few minutes, a black hair male walked out of the trees. "Gezz, where is that building that Julia mentioned?" The male asked whilst having closed eyes and when he opened them, he became surprise when he saw Tatsumi and Tatsulot.
"Wave!" Tatsumi said surprised to see the wielder of Grand Chariot but after a few seconds he got into a battle stance whilst drawing Incursio's key and Tatsulot growled louder. "W-wait! I'm not here for fight!" Wave said slightly panicly causing both members of Night Raid to look at each other for a few seconds before relaxing their stances. "Why are you here Wave?" Tatsumi asked whilst putting Incursio's key back into it's sheathed. "Well, I'm looking for Julia." Wave replied making the hete eye male and Biological Teigu to become confuse making Wave scratch the back of his head. "You see, I over heard that Julia wants to fight Akame and Kurome so I want find them a try to stop the fight." Wave explained making Tatsumi stare at him.
Is this because you don't want Julia killed?" Tatsumi asked but he and Tatsulot know the answer already. "Well...no." Wave said awkwardly and Tatsumi gained a smirk. "Oh, do you have a liking to the younger sister of Akame. Chloe will be upset then." Tatsumi said causing Wave to blush. "That...I know that Chloe is actually Kurome." Wave said making Tatsumi and Tatsulot surprise. "So don't want Kurome to die then?" Tatsumi asked causing Wave to nod slightly. "Yes, I don't want Kurome to die...not after we confess to each other." Wave replied and he became surprise himself when he saw Tatsumi and Tatsulot with open mouths.
"W-when did this happen?!" Tatsumi asked in a complete state of shock. "Two days after you killed Esdeath." Wave replied making Tatsumi to nod his head before the three of them fell into silence. "So why are you here you two?" Wave asked causing Tatsulot looked at Tatsumi who is scratching his head. "Well Akame and Kurome suddenly disappeared back at base so me and Tatsulot decided to follow them to see where they went." Tatsumi replied making Wave widen his eyes slightly. "So you wanted to stop the fighting as well?" Wave asked and Tatsumi was abou to reply but stop. "Well...I would but this not my business so I'll just going to stay out of it." Tatsumi replied making Wave clench his hand slightly before relaxing.
"That's slightly harsh to say, but I guess that you have a point about that." Wave said making Tatsumi smiling slightly. "So do you know where they are?" Tatsumi asked but Wave shook his head. "No, but I know it is at a church on the out-skirts of the Capital." Wave replied and it was then that the three of them felt killing instinct in the air. "I think we found them." Tatsumi said to Wave who nodded in reply. "Come on, let go before anythings happens." Wave said before three of them headed towards where the killing instinct is coming from.
Line Break
The battle between the three Teigu wielders is at a stalemate, neither of them winning or loosing. Akame and Kurome decided to swap opponents so Akame would be fighting Julia and Kurome would be fighting Natala at first but then swap after a few minutes of fighting. This tactic made Julia surprise but she got use to it after a while. "I didn't expect that you two would be able to keep it up for this long." Julia said as she dodge razor sharp winds from Kurome's Teigu. "What did you expect from assassins." Kurome retorted back as she duck a horizontal swing from Yatsufusa. "I guess that you have a point." Julia said as she swing Yatsufusa at Kurome but instead of hitting the black-eye assassin, her Teigu is blocked by Murasame.
"This again." Julia thought as her Teigu got into a deadlock with Akame's Teigu. "Julia, why did you want to serve the Empire?" Akame asked, the question suddenly enter her head and Akame saw that Julia's eyes are covered by her hair. "Why? Because I belive that I'm doing the right thing, defending the Empire and bringing happiness. You and Kurome decided to turn your backs on the Empire and spread saddness." Julia replied and Akame saw fury in her eyes. "Me and Kurome thought we where doing the right thing as well." Akame thought, thinking what Julia just said. It was then that Julia broke the deadlock and started to swing Yatsufusa at a fast pace, forcing the red-eye assassin to focus on defense.
Kurome dodge a jab from Natala's spear before sending a wave of air towards him, however Natala easily slice the wave in two. "Why can't I go serious on him?" Kurome thought as she blocked a attack from Natala. "Well I did grow up with him in my time in the Group of Terror." Kurome thought again whilst gripping the handle of her Teigu tightly. "I'm sorry Natala. But I need to kill Julia...even it means killing you." Kurome thought as her eyes became shaper. The black-eye assassin waited for Natala to attack first before doing anything. The blue eye male attacked by letting his spear extend, heading straight towards Kurome who jump out of the way just at the last second before sending a cyclone towards her former friend.
Natala jumped out of the cyclone's path and it was when he was in the air that he felt a presence behind him. He just had time to put his spear in front of him to block a kick from Kurome, however the force behind the kick cause him to be sent flying across the ground, causing dust to fill the air. "Sorry Natala." Kurome thought landing on the ground and getting into a battle stance. After a few seconds, Natala came charging at Kurome with spear ready. Kurome had to go on the defense to avoid being hit by the barrage of attacks that is heading her way. "I need to end this quickly." Kurome thought as she jump backwards to create some space before charging her Teigu for a powerful attack.
The two of them stood still for a few seconds until Natala charge at Kurome again and the black-eye girl waited until Natala is close to her. When Natala is a few feet away, Kurome swing Marasuma, releasing a huge razor sharp wind at Natala, completely cutting him into pieces. "It's done." Kurome thought as she looked sadly at the un-moving corpse of her former friend. "I better help with Sis now." Kurome thought as she turned around and began to head towards where Akame and Julia are fighting but she only took a few steps before Kurome started to wobble slightly. "Damn! I used to much energy in that attack." Kurome thought as she leaned on Marasuma for support. "Its up to you now Sis." Kurome thought with a hopeful look on her face.
"It looks like that Kurome has defeated Natala." Julia said as she duck a swing from Murasame. "I hope Kurome is okay." Akame thought as she glance at her younger sister to see her younger sister in a state of tiredness. "You should focus on your battle Akame." Julia pointed out causing Akame to whip her head back around just in time to block a attack from Yatsufusa. "Good reactions." Julia commented as her and Akame's Teigu started to become blurs as they clash together a create sparks. "I need to find a opening." Akame thought as she blocked attacks and attack Julia. After a few minutes of fast pace fighting, Akame saw the opportunity. "Now!" Akame shouted as she duck under a swing from Yatsufusa and kicked the Teigu out of Julia's hands.
"I didn't expect that." Julia thought surprised as she looked over her shoulder to see her Teigu landing on the ground, the blade hitting the ground first. "Eliminate." Akame said causing Julia to quickly avoid the blade of Murasame and jump backwards so that she is standing next to Yatsufusa. ""Let make this the final attack Akame." Julia said as she retrive Yatsufusa causing Akame to nod her head, knowing that the battle is coming towards it's conclusion. Both girls stood completely still, swords at the ready and waiting. They were so focus that they didn't register that it started to rain. "Now!" Julia shouted causing both girls to charge at each other.
When the two Teigu wielders clash, Kurome became worried that they both impailed each other. However she relaxed slightly when she saw that her older Sister is completely un-harmed. "Hehehe. I guess that this is good bye then." Julia said weakly as she felt the cursed poison spreading throughout her body. "It looks like it." Akame said as she remove Murasame from Julia's heart. "I see you later then." Julia before closing her eyes and collapsing on the ground. Akame looked at Julia for a few seconds before turning her attention towards her younger sister. "Kurome, are you okay?" Akame asked as she approach Kurome. "I'm fine Sis, just tired." Kurome replied with a weak smile.
"How...how are you feeling?" Akame asked referring to he un-moving corpse of Natala. "I'm...fine Sis. But I could be saying the same thing." Kurome replied and it was then that both of them heard footsteps approaching causing the two of them to turn in the direction that they are coming from. They became surprise when they saw Tatsumi, Tatsulot and Wave approaching them. "Tatsumi...Tatsulot? What are you two doing here?" Akame asked making the two named to become sheepish and Wave to become depress that he wasn't included. "Well you and Kurome just disappeared so I came looking for you." Tatsumi replied and Tatsulot nod her head in a agreement. "You...shouldn't have come. This had nothing to do with you." Akame said in a slightly serious tone of voice but Tatsumi chuckled slightly.
"I know that. If I didn't, then I would have interfered." Tatsumi said causing Akame to nod her head. "I had similar ideas." Wave said and Kurome looked at him with a small smile. "So how are you feeling Akame?" Tatsumi said gingerly, looking at the dead body of Julia. "I'm fine Tatsumi, you don't have to worry about me." Akame said but Tatsumi approach her and pull Akame into a hug. "No your not. You can't be fine if you just killed someone close to you." Tatsumi said softly and Akame bit the bottom half of her lips and started to shake slightly. After a few seconds Akame started to cry heavily and Tatsumi hold her tightly.
Tatsulot looked at the two with a worried look before turning her attention towards Wave who had a unsure look on his face. Tatsulot indicated with her head and Wave got the message and approach Kurome. "Hi Kurome." Wave said awkwardly to to the black-eye assassin who started to shake slightly which Wave notice. After a few seconds, Kurome suddenly hug Wave tightly and cried into Wave's jacket. Wave became shock but then calm down and hug Kurome back. The five of them stood there in the rain, completely silent except for the sound of crying.
And there we have it and i hope that you all enjoy this chapter and I'll apologize if the last part is too upsetting for anyone.
Guest: I'm sorry if that bothers you but i want Tatsumi to use his armors evenly (He had Tatsulot for two years before joining Night Raid).
Guest: I didn't know that there was a similar Teigu to Phantomos so thank you for flagging this up.
