Back in life.
The battle was raging on. Both Roy and the demon had sustained damage, but neither seemed tobe gaining. Roy was panting and trying to ignore the blood trickling down his forehead. If he didn't do something about it soon it would run into his eyes. But to take his eyes off the creature in front of him was the same falling on his weapons. Chakra tonfa and scaled scythe clashed together over and over. Roy glanced back at his cousin's bodies, if they didn't return soon he wasn't sure he would be able to stop this thing.
"You keep looking at those corpses as if you expect something to happen. Maybe I should dispose of them so you aren't distracted." The demon shot forward aiming for the barrier, but Roy didn't step out of the way. He took the brunt of the scythe on his tonfa and the demon smiled in triumph. The blade instead of slamming down on the chakra tonfa snake around it and sliced through the soft flesh on his inner arm. His chakra tonfa faded from that arm as it flopped uselessly to his side. Roy jumped away from the blade before it could gut him. Balancing on the shield that protected his cousins he let his last tonfa blade fade away. He remembered how the demon was seal, but he would need to make contact with the demon's body first. He just prayed he would be strong enough to seal him.
One handed, Roy wove signs with his right hand. Chakra seeped out of his pores and spread along his skin to create a thin layer that covered him from head to toe. Then he focused chakra to his feet and launched himself at the demon. The scythe swung up to meet him and render him in half, but like the tonfa the scythe rebounded off the shield, this time with enough force to send the weapon spinning from the demon's hand. The shield shattered under the force of the rebound. The demon stared shocked at Roy as he reached out a laid a hand squarely over where the demon's heart was. Snapping out of his shock the demon snarled and slashed at Roy with jagged claws that dripped with poison. Pain ripped through his body as the claws raked ragged furrows from his shoulder to his hip. Roy rolled away and wove the signs for his last move. His chakra flowed like a river from his body and wrapped the demon in a cocoon of energy. Panting, Roy focused the chakra so it was tighter and denser becoming crystal.
The shield behind him wavered and bowed, until it shattered like glass from the lack of chakra to sustain it. Laughing and panting he fell to his knees, he did it! Another loud bang like a mountain of ice cracking sounded across the graveyard. Suddenly he felt the warmth of his cousins and their cousin in his mind. He laughed breathlessly turning his face to the heavens in a silent prayer of thanks.
"We are here, Roy." He looked to either side to see his cousins standing beside him. His family. Relief slithered through him when he realized they were all here.
"We need to seal him permanently." His three cousins nodded picking out what they needed to know from his mind. Each one chose a cardinal point. Akira chose East, Hana the west, Shisui to the North, while Roy stood at the South. Akira, Hana, and Shisui drew their fingernails across their palms drawing blood. Then picking the symbols out of Roy's mind they drew them up their arms, shoulders and necks. Akira spoke first.
"I bind you with illusions of Genjutsu so you may never act your will on another." Then she wove the strongest Genjutsu over the cocoon. Next Shisui spoke,
"I bind you with the fire of Ninjutsu so neither you or your chakra can ever affect another again." Shisui wove the signs for a fireball and blew so the fire engulfed the cocoon. Then Hana spoke,
"I bind you with the power of Taijutsu so your body feels the pain you caused to those here and can never do so again." She charged her fist with chakra and punched the fire wrapped cocoon. Instead of just taking one hit the cocoon seemed to take a piece of Hana and it rippled all over like it was repeatedly being Roy spoke,
"I bind all these together with my kekkei genkai so you can never escape on your own." A barrier wrapped around and interwove itself with the Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, and Taijutsu. Together all four of them spoke,
"We bind you with our own blood, so you may never again walk this earth unless we allow it." The symbols drawn in their own blood slid to the ground,and wrapped around the crystal binding it and condensing it into a dense crystal that was harder than diamond with all the colors of the rainbow. A cry of denial echoed from the crystal as it took root in the center of the graveyard. All four kids fell to their knees panting and sighing in relief. They had done it!
