Tenbu floated I the air and waited to enter inside the office and meet Hinako. His arms were crossed as he grew nervous, will she accept my favor? I really need her to accept it. The old dragon thought back of his excuse to go meet her. He wanted to just swiftly leave, but Drum spotted him. As he was the target, it took some long and difficult convincing to go somewhere alone. He shivered at the excuse he used. He wanted to forget it, but he needed to keep it in mind for when he returned.

The door opened and a woman gazed at him. The prime minister was a woman with long brown hair, peach skin, sky blue eyes and her easily noticeable generous breast. She wore a black jacket with a long skirt of the same color.

"You didn't change that much Hinako," the old dragon replied with pink eyes on his face.

"I'm glad you think so but I'm much busier than before with everything going on. I don't have too long, so we should go straight to business," she invited him inside.

The two went in the office and faced each other's, "I hope you will still keep your promise."

"Of course. Let's me tell you everything first, then I will ask my favor," the old dragon started explaining everything.

The Prime Minister listened carefully. Eventually, she put her right hand on her mouth as he reached the important part.


Episode 6: Zanya And The Amnesiac Monster

A monster was sitting on the bench of the park, bending it under its weight. It was a monster with silver skin and white mane around his head and on his shoulders. It had a silver horn on his forehead, looking a little like a drill. It wore a black breastplate and plates protecting his crutch and the side of his legs. The monster looked around the strange things called humans with his amber eyes. They were all avoiding him for some reason. The lion like monster gazed at the green orb in his hands. It didn't know what it was, but felt like it was something precious It should keep at all cost. It was a male monster from another world he forgot and lost in Tokyo, a city in this strange world.

He eventually stood up and began to walk away. He felt bad for frightening the smaller beings. He preferred to isolate himself in the woods. He thought back and wondered why he went to this location called Tokyo in the first place.

What is going on in my mind? Who am I? Why am I here? He asked many questions, but no answer ever came to him. He gazed down, "I just know it's something important I have to do here. How did I lose my memory?"

The only thing he knew was that he suffered from amnesia. He remembered to have a bump on the back of his head a while ago and it might had been the cause of it. One of those humans, as they called themselves told him so. He lightly smiled, thinking back at that human who helped him.

He heard a voice and wondered who it was, "Careful Akatsuki."

"Okay big bro!"

"Nin," another voice replied.

He thought of letting it go, but the voice of the other was strange. It wasn't a word and it got his curiosity. He decided to check it out. He hid behind the tree and saw two humans and a monster with them.

The older boy had pale peach skin, brown eyes and long dark blue hair as a pony tail. He wore a white outfit with purple stripes and glasses.

The younger one, who tried to climb the tree with some ninja tool. He had peach skin, magenta hair and amber eyes. He wore a blue shirt with a hood, darker blue pants, fingerless glove and a silver bandana with a shuriken on his forehead.

Near the boy was the monster in his SD form. He wore a black armor over his body, boots and gauntlet of the same color while he wore a grey pant and a red scarf around his throat. His gray helmet with golden horn had a star on it just like his belt. He crossed his arms as he gazed at the young boy with his amber eyes.

"I still can't believe you want to become a ninja," the oldest boy whispered.

The observed curiosity was satisfied and decided to leave. He turned around and slowly walked away.

The young boy was about to fall when the older brother yelled, "Akatsuki!"

"Nin!"

The amnesiac monster turned around and saw the ninja taking his real form, twice as tall as the oldest brother or a little more. He grabbed Akatsuki with ease and turned around, grabbing a shuriken. He threw it towards the hidden monster. It landed on the tree near him and the monster gasped.

The older boy heard it, "Who's there?" he turned his deck case into a Core gadget and grabbed the katana, "Reveal yourself!" he ordered. He wondered if it was one of the demons with a Death Shido. He couldn't drop his guard with everything going on.

"You can drop me Tsukikage," Akatsuki said.

The ninja put the boy on the ground and drew his weapon.

The amnesia monster gulped and came out of his hiding spot, "Don't attack me please! I was just curious! I mean no harm!" he came out, and slowly advancing towards them.

"Nin!" Tsukikage showed his scroll, Stop. Turn into your SD form if you mean no harm.

The monster twitched his head and asked, "What's an SD form?"

That got the three by surprise, Zanya? The nanomachine ninja asked.

"It's turning into a smaller and less threatening form. When you are on Earth, you should be in your SD form," the boy grew suspicious. It was something every monster should know, "How did you come to Earth?"

"Well… Earth? Is this small forest?" he gazed around.

The older boy wasn't sure how to reply.

"Big bro… Do you think he forgot?" Akatsuki asked.

"He could play a trick with us. With the demons going on, we might have to arrest him," the boy approached him.

"Arrest me? For what? What did I do wrong? Tell me? Do you know how I ended up here? Do you know who am I? Maybe you do… Am I evil?" he played with his fingers and looked down, "Surely I am."

Tsukikage gazed in the eyes of the other monster and raised his hand, "Nin."

His buddy listened and asked, "What is it?"

Let me try something first.

"Do it," Zanya replied.

"H-hey!" the amnesiac monster nervously asked, "He's not going to attack me right? I don't want to fight!"

"He won't. Tsukikage will check if you are honest or not. He is good with that," Akatsuki replied.

Thought I wonder how he do it, Zanya wondered.

Unknown to the monster, the nanomachine ninja created miniature version of himself and went towards the monster. He used his mind to check around without moving. His main body noticed the monster growing nervous with nothing going on. Eventually, one of his mini self noticed something on the back of the head. He saw a bump on it and it wasn't a fake wound. He called them back and showed his scroll, He has a wound on the back of his head. High chance he really lost his memories.

Zanya gazed softened as his core gadget returned into its deckcase form, "I'm sorry for doubting you. With everything going on, we can't be too careful."

"So… There is no trouble for me?" the monster asked with a small smile of relief.

"There is more we need to know. Someone attacked you and there is more to figure it out," the boy resumed, did you come here before you lost your memory or after? If it's before, it is surely an accident. If after, maybe someone stole it from you. Or, last possibility, you are an illegal monster.

"S-sure," the amnesiac monster believed it was the best to listen. The older human has a big sense of authority coming from him and he had to respect him.


Yamigedo revealed the new demon in his hand. He showed the card to his friend and the trio who served them. The Great Fiend said, "This one is talented in battle and in surprise attacks. Wolf Masked Ninja, Benizumi is one of my warriors not to be underestimated."

The boy looked at the card, "Red mark again. This one refused to obey you."

"Yes. She is one who caused me some trouble when she escaped me. She aimed for my neck, but I got her first. It was my second monster to capture and I was inexperienced in it. It almost cost me Ikazuchi," he admitted.

Ikazuchi nodded.

"What did he say?" Shido asked.

"Reply that this monster from Katana World can be used to attack Tenbu or that pink one from a safe distance. Perfect for assassination. I also ordered her to target any Omni Lords that I haven't mentioned. Maybe more are here too right now. Not what I told personally you."

"Wolf Masked Ninja, Benizumi is a powerful monster from Katana World. She is talented in surprised attack and in direct fight. She will target any Omni Lords, those we know or not. I hope you will succeed this time," the boy warned them.

Shido grabbed it and gulped, he knew what would come if he failed. He knew the chances were high.

"We will kill at least one of them Sha," the Darkness Dragon chuckled.

The trio left, but they could still be heard.

"If it's assassination, we need to search for the best location to attack and drag one of them there," Sofia commented. She thought about it and said, "I'll try to bring Tetsuya and Asmodai somewhere perfect to the ambush."

"Where?" Gallows asked as he crossed his arms.

"The park," the girl replied.

"There again? But you fought them there last week," Shido replied.

"And that's why they might not expect it again. We never fought them at the same place," the girl answered.

The buddy chuckled, "Yes. They might feel safer. We are acting like a serial killer sha sha. Having something about us standing out. We never deal with them at the same place," he giggled, "And we are going to break this now sha!"

"Bad comparison," the two humans countered before they drew the card to teleport away.

"Hum?" the monster replied uncertain. And the trio left the location.

Ikazuchi and his friend gazed at the empty space, "Do you think they knew we were listening to them?"

"Yes."

"They better succeed," he commented.

"Of course… Ikazuchi. How are you holding up right now? Any pain? Are you getting tired quicker than yesterday?"

The boy grumbled and admitted, "Yes."

"… To what?" Yamigedo asked uncertain.

"Tired. It doesn't hurt… just feeling… I don't know. Like I didn't feel my arm for a second this morning."

The Great Fiend hugged the boy and said, "Just hold on. It won't be for much longer."

Ikazuchi understood what was implied. His lips were lightly moving while he also shivered. There was a hint of fear in his mind, "How long do I have? How long before I die?"

Barely a few months. "It won't happen. You and I will live together," Yamigedo replied.

The boy didn't answer.


The interrogation of the monster was over and Zanya had to admit, it was clear that the monster really lost his memory. He got clue about what the possible scenario was. It was possible that he was attacked, or hit his head somewhere. The first scenario was more probable than the others. Monsters were more resilient than humans.

Akatsuki was talking with the monster now, trying to help him, that's either impossible or really hard.

"Do you remember your name?" Akatsuki asked.

The monster nodded negatively, "No. I can't remember it. I want to know my name. I don't like being called you," he crossed his arms and sighed.

"Does your name start by an A?" the younger brother curiously asked.

"No."

"Maybe a B?"

"No."

Tsukikage sighed and showed the scroll, This is going to take a while. What should we do Zanya?

"We need to contact Headquarter. We might find out how he came to Tokyo," he took a picture of the monster and contacted Commander I.

"Z?" Akatsuki asked in desperation, this was a bad idea.

"N- Yes! My name starts by a Z! I'm sure of it!" the monster joyfully clasped. Just remembering one letter put him in a good mood.

Even so, it's hard to believe he might be evil, Zanya thought. His buddy carefully watched them as he responded, "This is Zanya. We found a monster in the park."

"-Is it one of the demons again?-" Commander I quickly replied, clearly ready to call reinforcements.

"No. We don't have trouble about them right now. That monster clearly has lost his memory and I don't know how he came to Tokyo. He had nothing on him, no passport or any kind of authorisation. I don't even know which world he came from."

"An u?" Akatsuki continued, thinking it was helping.

"Yes. Z and I. Those letters are in my name… But I don't think my name is Zi. I feel like I'm an idiot," he nervously scratched the back of his head.

The young boy quickly replied, "It's not your full name. So, you don't have to feel that way. Let's try to find the next letter."

The monster nodded and they continued.

"And here's the image. Maybe you can find how he came here," the boy replied.

"-We'll search about it. Keep in contact with him. Your younger brother is getting closer to have a name. We might find some records about him once he remembered at least that. Still, I do wonder what caused his amnesia. That wound makes me believe he might have been attacked before. If it's the case, we have someone we need to arrest.-"

"I'll keep searching clues once my brother cannot find anything else. Meanwhile, I'll make sure he won't cause trouble. Once it's getting late, I'll bring him to Headquarter."

"-Good. See you later,-" Commander I ended contact.

The boy sighed as his brother said, "And N?"

"Yes! Z-I-U-N. Ziun! I'm sure this is my name! Ziun. It rings just well for me. Thank you little one," he grabbed the hand of the child and barely felt it. He chuckled, "My hand is too big for you."

Akatsuki grabbed his finger and they shook it. The two chuckled.

"Mine is Akatsuki. Zanya is my big brother and Tsukikage is his buddy."

"Happy to meet you," the gray monster told them.

Zanya thought about his side as he nodded at the monster. He suggested, "Maybe you can try and turn into an SD form Ziun.".

"How?" the monster curiously asked.

Tsukikage said, "Nin," Watch me.

The monster nodded.

The nanomachine monster turned into his real form. He then did it again and turned into his smaller form. He repeated a few times and gave a few indications on how to do it.

"I'll try… But am I like you? We are very different," he commented.

"Many monsters can do it and all looks unique," the older brother encouraged him.

Ziun nodded and tried. After a few times, he turned into his SD form. He looked similar than his real form, but he was much smaller and looked a little cuter, "I did it! I can't believe it! I turn so small!" he chuckled and bowed to them, "Thank you so much! I won't creep everyone out now! You three helped me find my name and changing form! I just need to remember everything now!" he was enthusiastic enough to believe he quickly could.

"What do we do now big bro?" Akatsuki asked.

Zanya could already see his brother getting some attachment to the monster, but made no loud opinion about it. His younger brother was besides the monster and they were smiling at each other's. The older boy knew that since he had a buddy, Akatsuki might be interested too. They spent so much time together, especially since Tsukikage came back form his time in jail. His buddy became a friend/older brother/mentor for his younger brother.

They knew nothing about the monster and seemed nice but that's without his memories, I can't let him become his buddy… Especially until his memories are recovered.

"We might need to bring him to the headquarters, Commander I might not a few things about him. Recovering his memories are important."

"And if he can't?" his younger brother asked.

"We'll find out," Zanya replied.

The four weren't aware, but someone did notice them.


Shido and Gallows were observing the humans and the two monsters. Gallows scratched his jaw, "That's weird. I never saw that monster before. Sha sha. Such a big nose."

The boy checked at the card and wondered if he should call the demon right now. If it was the case, he had to be specific about what he wanted. He still shivered at what happened last week with that demon, I'm glad Sofia went over it but I'm not. He gazed at his buddy. He didn't really want to hear his opinion, but he was the only one right now, "Hey. Do-"

"Don't 'hey' me Shido Sha," the Darkness Dragon grumbled as he crossed his arms.

The boy ignored that, "Do you think we should summon the demon right now or not? I know we should do it very soon, but they are too close."

Gallows replied, "Whatever. As long as they don't see her, we can summon her anywhere. Just be careful and don't fail sha. Ikazuchi is going to zap us if we do not reach his satisfaction."

"Speaking of him," he was quiet for a few seconds. He had trouble believing he was having an actual conversation with the monster. Since he came back, it was always only a few words, "You noticed he's getting weaker right?"

"For sure sha. From what Azi Dahaka said, his time is coming up if we do nothing," he crossed his arms.

Shido decided to summon the demon now. It was best that she was ready when Sofia called them, "Let's do it now, but behind the large tree."

Gallows fused with his buddy and once they became Death Shido, the took out the card. The boy summoned the demon.

Wolf Masked Ninja, Benizumi appeared beside Death Shido. She was a humanoid monster looking considerably human-like. Very little of her skin can be seen and her long black hair. She wore a white ninja suit with a few hints of red on it, a purple scarf, silver gauntlets, a white and red mask that hide her face, except for her mouth and jaw. She had two larges kunai on her waist, held there by her brown belt.

"We got a female shinobi from Katana World," Gallows commented.

Death Shido quickly explained how they should act during the mission, as the monster commented about already being aware of the mission, "So we need to wait until we find any sight of one of the Omni Lords."

"Understood," Benizumi replied. She heard something and hid in the tree.

The boy and his buddy felt like the demon vanished from existence. They also heard the sound.

"Quickly. Hide! Those four are coming!" the Darkness Dragon warned his buddy.

The boy gasped and quickly hid behind the closest tree he could find and waited. He didn't try to check where those four were, in case he was spotted.

Ziun asked, "So you think this Buddy Police Force can help me?"

"Yes. We will help find out why you lost your memory and how you lost your memory," Zanya explained.

"That's your duty?" he asked uncertainly to the boy.

"It is. Do not worry, no one will think of hurting you," that bastard is in jail and will remained for a long time. He got another thought about it, but that bastard who managed to do something horrible to my buddy is still at large. I will find him one day. I'm certain of it.

Benizumi gazed at Ziun and recognised him. She observed him and took many details into account, on his appearance, posture and how his eyes were moving. She grabbed her kunai and was ready to kill the monster in one hit, this is one of them and completely dropped his guard. An easy target, she thought. She prepared to throw her weapon and waited for the perfect time to kill him. She did wonder why the monster wouldn't be on his guard. He must be aware that her master was present and ready to fully manifested in the flesh soon.

She threw her kunai and aimed at the eye ball of Ziun. Tsukikage felt something coming and stood in front of the other monster, blocking the kunai with his own. He looked at the larger weapon flying in the air and landing on the ground, "Nin!"

"Careful!" Zanya yelled as he turned his deckcase into his katana core gadget once again. He looked around while his brother remained close to him.

"Who is that?" Akatsuki asked.

"Show yourself!" his older brother ordered.

"Looks like it won't be a quick death for this Omni Lord," a voice said.

Tsukikage quickly threw a shuriken at the direction of the voice and the demon came out of hiding. It landed near the nanomachine and aimed with her gauntlet at him. Tsukikage avoided the attacks and jumped away.

Death Shido knew it was time to show himself. The boy walked out of cover and approached them.

"Big bro! It's that weirdo who's after Tenbu!"

"Who are you calling a weirdo?" he yelled at them. His cellphone suddenly started to ring.

"Hum? Again? Sha? Am I part cellphone holder now?" Gallows grumbled furiously before pouting loudly.

Death Shido answered while he gazed at them. He said nothing.

"-Shido. I found Asmodai and am ready to bring him to the woods,-" Sofia said.

"Must be his ally who called him," the boy heard Zanya said.

"Shido! Don't tell her name!" Gallows quickly warned his buddy.

"Death Shido. You should wait. We found another Omni Lord," Death Shido replied to her.

"-Another one. I'll drop the plan then. Who is it?-"

"A monster with Zanya who's acting weird. That Omni Lord isn't like the others," he replied as he grabbed the skull.

"Omni Lord? What is that? Am I that thing?" Ziun asked, getting confused about his current predicament.

"He doesn't know he is an Omni Lord, but Benizumi knows," before he added, "That's all."

"-I'll come closer to observe the situation after warning Ikazuchi. You know what to do.-"

"Of course," he raised the skull, "Darkness Barrier Activate!"

The group was now inside the barrier. Akatsuki gasped when he looked around, "Where are we big bro?"

"Inside the barrier. We are trapped until we defeat them, just like with Gao and Tasuku," he grabbed a spellcard, ready to fight.

Tsukikage was also ready he gazed at them and said, "Be careful Akatsuki."

The young boy knew it was important if the buddy spoke instead of showing the scroll. The nanomachine ninja couldn't use the scroll to communicate or he will be in trouble. He ignored the vow of silence when they were in danger, as he made a vow to always watch over them too.

"Can you beat her?" Zium asked the nanomachine monster.

Zanya gasped as he looked at the demon, "G-girl! I was trying to pushed that away from my mind!" he grew nervous.

Tsukikage quietly sighed at his buddy fear of women. He had to make sure she was away from him or he might panic and not use his spellcards.

"Ignore her big bro!" Akatsuki said.

Benizumi yelled, "You thought I was a guy you jerk!"

The older sibling started to sweat and nervously chuckled, "N-no," I tried to convince myself so I would be easier to fight.


"And now, we have a reverse Tenbu," Yamigedo commented as he crossed his arms.

"He is clearly afraid of girls. Benizumi will surely use it to her advantage," Ikazuchi grinned, certain of their victory.

"Still. I don't know how Ziun lost his memory. Never mind, this is convenient for us. He looks like he is defenceless. Look at him, he is standing behind, not wanting to join in the fight," the Great Fiend let out a large grin, Soon, my buddy will be free of the weight I bring on him. I won't hurt him anymore. "Soon."

"Yeah. As long as no one entered in the barrier, he has his chance," the boy commented.

"He better be," the Great Fiend added.


It was then that something began to warp in the air. Paruko and Takosuke appeared in the air. They were filming the upcoming battle.

"Another girl," Zanya gulped, but she was far away and didn't worsen his currently weak focus.

"Who is that?" Benizumi grumbled as she grabbed one kunai to aim at them. She didn't throw it as she blocked the shuriken threw by Tsukikage.

"Careful!" Akatsuki yelled, knowing his brother couldn't concentrate well.

"We will," she replied as she gave a thumb up, "I'm sending the recording to the Buddy Police Force and told them you were here."

Zanya heard this and managed to begin focusing, as the female weren't in his sight right now, That means we can finally arrest Death Shido once this fight is over. We will find our where Yamigedo is hiding. I didn't forget how that demon trapped my hands in the ice. I have to let my pride overtake me and… not caring for the girl anymore.

He drew a spellcard that contained a gear and was about to join the fight with his buddy, when the shinobi said one quick word, "Nin!"

No other words were needed as he put the card in his core gadget and picked another one, "Okay."

Tsukikage nodded and lightly smiled. He faced the demon and pointed at her and him.

Benizumi commented, "Just you and me then?" she gazed at Ziun. It was her target, but just by judging at the nanomachine monster, it was better to get rid of him first.

Ziun gulped when he saw her murderous gaze and asked the little boy, "Did I do something wrong before I lost my memory?"

Akatsuki smiled, "Nope. I think you did something right and evil guys didn't like it."

That was reassuring and Ziun lightly smiled. He focused on the battle as it began.

The shinobis were at close range and their katana's stroke. The blade bounced on each other's and the two jumped out of the way as they threw kunais. They quickly returned to a close range and both tried to pass the defense of the others. Their slashes were precise and aimed for a vital as they tried to defeat the other in one hit.

Tsukikage managed to keep his speed and never let Benizumi passed his defense, as he had many battle experiences and took her seriously. He shouldn't see her as weaker. She wasn't a demon serving Yamigedo for nothing. He watched the video Paruko recorded about Tasuku's battle and he wouldn't let his buddy worried for him.

He threw a flash bomb and the light blinded Benizumi. He came behind her and slashed, but her gauntlet blocked it. She countered with a kick in his gut and followed by a punch. That one missed his face as he countered with a kick. He lightly twisted his boot and a small blade came out as he slashed her chest, leaving a small wound where a sip of blood came out. He put his blade where it was hidden and threw shurikens at her, before taking a safe distance.

The demon charged at him and painfully grumbled when she stepped on something she didn't see on the ground. They were Makibishi on the grounds and it wounded her feet. She realised he put this after throwing his flash bomb. Benizumi frowned under her mask. She underestimated that ninja. She pointed her left hand and the ninja and twisted her fingers. Something opened on the wrist section and a small flash of black came out and went to the ninja.

The thing was a dart coming at high speed at the nanomachine ninja. It pierced the shoulder and Tsukikage painfully winced, blocked the gauntlet when she came near him. He couldn't block the other one that aimed for his next.

"Art Of Body Replacement!" Zanya quickly yelled as it saved his buddy from getting his neck broken.

Tsukikage countered with his smaller weapons, trying to create a distraction.

Death Shido lightly grinned as he yelled, "Watchful Eyes!"

The nanomachine shinobi was ready to strike with his katana from behind, but she knew where he was. She blocked his blade and countered with a kick on his chest, sending him away. She drew shurikens with some kind of liquid on it.

Akatsuki learned enough about it and yelled, "Poison!"

That put his older brother on alert and used his Art Of Body Replacement spell when it came near his buddy.

This is the kind of battle ninjas are doing in Katana World I guess. You sure didn't show everything you could do when we first met, Zanya thought. The battle made him forget about Benizumi being a girl. The boy managed to focus on assuring that his buddy was victorious. Even now, he forced himself to ask no questions about Ziun. He will confirm this later.

The tow shinobis returned to close range and both tried to pass the defense of their adversaries. None of them manage to land a strike and used dirty tactics to reach victory. Tsukikage drew another bomb and threw it on the ground, before jumping away.

Benizumi anticipated it and blocked her eyes, but the sound of an explosion put her on alert.

It wasn't a flash bomb this time. It contained many smalls needles that went to inflict as much damaged as possible, but Death Shido used the same spell Zanya used and protected his buddy.

The older brother grunted at his buddy failure, knowing that the longer the fight continued, the more they were in danger.

Ziun observed this fight and knew that everyone was in danger because of him. They were protecting him, a stranger without memories.

"It's okay. Big bro and Tsukikage are doing their job. They won't lose to that Death Shido," the young boy declared.

"It is my fault they put themselves in dangers," the possible Omni Lord replied as his lips pointed down.

The young boy hugged him and replied, "No way! It's their fault for attacking us. You did nothing wrong."

An innocent reply from the child ease the guilt that formed within Ziun and nodded, "Thank you. I wish I remember everything, so I could help Tsukikage," he clenched his hands, but didn't take action, I am more of a hindrance right now.

"Nin!"

That brought back his attention.

Tsukikage had a large kunai stuck in his gut as he took a few steps back. He coughed a few times before he lost his balance.

"Tsukikage!" the three yelled.

"Finish him!" Death Shido ordered.

Benizumi charged at the black shinobi with the intention of killing him. Her gauntlet was ready to crush the skull of her enemy, "First you! Then the Omni Lord!"

Tsukikage grinned and suddenly disappeared. His body broke apart and the shinobi couldn't be seen. It was as if he was gone from the field.

The two humans were panting, they used their spells many times while Ziun and Akatsuki wasn't watching the fight.

Everyone panicked even the two exhausted fighters.

Paruko yelled, "Did he just blow up? Tsukikage just blow up like a bomb!"

"Tsukikage!" Zanya yelled as he began to sweat a lot.

"Nin," a quiet voice whispered.

The boy saw his buddy, only an inch tall in front of him. He saw his buddy showing a thumb up. Zanya was reassured, but his expression remained, there are many things you didn't tell us Tsukikage I'll ask that later.

Benizumi searched for the shinobi. She didn't even believe for a second that he was dead. She felt a blade piercing her back and the katana came out of her abdomen.

"Nin!" Tsukikage said as he reformed his body behind him.

Benizumi grinned, "Not bad," before grabbing the blade and crushing the black ninja against the wall behind her. She turned around and violently punched the face of the shinobi before throwing him away.

The nanomachine ninja rolled on the ground and returned on his feet. The kunai that was piercing his gut was still there. He stood up and was ready to follow up when a smoke grenade was thrown and blinded him. He was waiting for her to come, but she never did. To his horror, he heard Akatsuki yelling, "Tsukikage!"

She's going after Ziun! He came out of the smoke and dashed towards him.

Akatsuki stood in front of the monster who was said to be an Omni Lord.

"Akatsuki!" Ziun yelled above Zanya.

The supposed Omni Lord turned into his real form and grabbed Benizumi by her wrist, "You will not hurt my friend!" before giving a quick kick on her face and sending her away. The monster acted on instinct. He didn't think, his body did the job.

He charged and ducked when shuriken came to him. He tried to kick her, but she blocked his assault. He remained relentless in his attacks.

Tsukikage watched the battle, ready to act at any time. Now that no one gave him attention, he disappeared from everyone sight.

Ziun, despite losing his memory had an advantage. Benizumi was wounded and her low blood in her made her a little slower than before. As the two humans were exhausted, they couldn't use any spells to help them anymore. The possible Omni Lord was a powerful hand-to-hand fighter, never leaving himself opened. As the battle continued, he felt more comfortable in battle, as if it was something he always did before. He grabbed her hands and held her close to him. He had the demon restrained and defenseless, "You will regret, trying to hurt my friend."

Tsukikage saw his chance and charged, "Nin!" He raised his hand and hit at the base of her neck, knocking her out.

Her body was livid and didn't move. They put her on the ground as Zanya took his spellcard and tried to use it. He remembered how exhausted he was, d-damn.

"Let me do it big bro!" Akatsuki said as he grabbed the card. He used it and sealed Benizumi. The demon wasn't a danger for anyone anymore.

Ziun watched the demon turning into a card and let it dropped on the ground, as the seal disappeared, with Death Shido.

They were back in the park with Paruko near them and saying, "You beat them. Congratulation!"

"T-thanks," Zanya said exhausted. His buddy came and supported him. He then realised that it was a girl close to him, "Gyah! Girl!" he tried to took some distance and felt on the ground.

"S-sorry," she replied as she scratched her pink hair.

The Buddy Police Force was present and the boy knew a report will come next. It was a big one with Ziun near them.

The monster was in the defensive with many strangers. He still had his fighting posture, but his younger brother calmed him down. With the possible Omni Lord in SD form, it was time to go to Headquarter.


Ikazuchi was angry at another defeat. He couldn't even put the blame on Shido. His ally did what he had to do. Bringing the Omni Lord in the field had to be done and with how close they were to the Omni Lord themselves; he couldn't take only him alone. He couldn't blame him when Ziun knew how to fight, despite his lost memory.

Shido, Sofia and Gallows were already gone when the boy finished eating his diner. He ate to try and calm his frustration.

Yamigedo on the other hand was infuriated, "Dammit! Even when he forgot everything! He still knows how to fight! I should have known! Fighting for millennials won't just go away with memory loss! We should have won this! But that Omni Lord just had to defeat them!" his rant calmed down. He gazed at his friend. They were in a race against time and it was one he refused to lose.


Zanya finished giving his report and the group gazed at the possible Omni Lord. Tenbu wasn't present, so they couldn't confirm if Zium was a one or not.

The boy gave the card to Commander I and talked about what would happen next.

"What do we do now? Until we find a way to bring back all of his memory, he needs to be under protection," Zanya resumed.

His younger brother was present, but his older brother asked to not saw a word until they were done.

"I have some possible information about Ziun actually," Commander I said.

"W-what?" the three said while Tsukikage showed his scroll with the same word.

"Can you show them what you found Stella?"

"Yes commander," and the woman showed it.

"-And as for the reason the statue disappeared is unknown. The government found nothing at all for now, but witness said that some rocks were on the ground, but only a small fraction. One claim that it suddenly took life and disappeared as it flew in the sky and-"

The message was clear.

"He was a statue in China!" Akatsuki yelled.

"Akatsuki," his big brother warned.

The younger one apologised.

"So, I was a statue… Then Why am I not one now?" the monster asked.

"That's the big question. Tenbu might help us with this, but he is suddenly too busy to come and help," Commander I grumbled, what is going on with him? With everything going on, he should watch himself more and help us more. I don't like this at all.

"The demons and Yamigedo will target you again Ziun. We need to make sure you are under watch and protected. If you are indeed an Omni Lord, Yamigedo wants you dead and he will be extremely dangerous for our world and many others," Stella resumed the situation.

That made the monster gulped, "How can I be link to something that big? I wish I could remember and help you," he scratched his graw fur. He grew nervous to where he will stay for now. The only one he knew were the two humans and Tsukikage.

"He can stay with us," Akatsuki suggested.

Zanya wanted to warn his younger brother, but Stella agreed, "I think it's a good idea. He knows you and it will be better than with strangers."

Commander I follow too, "I agree. Gao and his buddy are watching over Tenbu, so we should add another Omni Lord under their gaze."

Zanya thought about it and looked at his brother. He had stars in his eyes, "I'm sure there is no problem. That depends on dad."

"Let's ask him now!" his younger brother was eager.

Zanya called his father and after a short talk, he agreed, given the circumstance, "He said yes."

"That's great!" the young boy joyfully said as he grabbed the hands of the possible Omni Lord and spun around together.

They said a few more things before it was time for the humans to return home with a new monster.


When Ziun entered in the house, his eyes looked around. He couldn't believe the inside of a human house was so… strange and unique. It was only wonders, where his eyes rested upon.

They showed the interior and explained a little what the television was and a few other things. They were tired of the eventful day and the monster understood and calmed down his excitement. While Zanya finished showing everything, he said, "I'm going to study. The exams aren't over yet."

Akatsuki sighed, but did the same.

Tsukikage and Ziun were the only one remaining in the living room, I'll show you what's on television.

"Thanks," he replied.

The two sad on the sofa of the living room and watched it. Once again, the wonders of what this technology could do put it at lost. He asked nothing, knowing they were tired and simply experienced it. It was simply watching the news, but it amazed him.

You weren't that surprise when we were at Headquarter, he commented.

The gray monster nodded, "I was still thinking about those guys who attacked us and who I might be," he shook his head, "I was a statue. How could this be?"

I don't know, but we will help you regain your memory. I promise.

The possible Omni Lord nodded and smiled, "I'm glad to have meet you. You three are so kind to help me when you don't even know me."

No problem. You are our guest here. I'm… technically one but at the same time, not anymore. I am not just Zanya buddy, I'm part of their family. And I, Tsukikage let out an embarrassed nin, Just realised I forgot to give news to my brother. He might be pissed of since I haven't written him since I came to Earth.

"He will be angry," he thought back.

Anyway. We will make sure the demons and Yamigedo won't hurt you. Akatsuki will be sadden if something happens to you.

"I'll be sad if he got hurt because of me too," Ziun admitted.

Later, the four had diners together and simply talked a little about school. The one who the demons claimed to be an Omni Lord was curious about it and they answered some of his questions. He didn't ask much, as he quickly understood the basic of school. Questions died when the food was overbearingly delicious and let out a childish and innocent smile, as if he reached heaven.

The night came and everyone was ready to call it a day.

"Before we sleep, we have to find where Ziun can sleep," the older brother started.

"He can sleep with me!" The younger one exclaimed with excitement.

Zanya sighed and scratched the back of his head. He gazed at his buddy who gave him a thumb up. There was still a short argument, but it was more for the sake of one, "Okay. He can sleep in your chamber. Meanwhile, there is a few things you have to tell me Tsukikage. About your special power."

The two went to his chambers while Akatsuki escorted the other monster to his own. They entered in there. It was dark and they couldn't see well, until the light came.

"This is my room," he smiled at the probable Omni Lord.

The monster looked around. The chamber was small. It had a few drawers, posters of ninjas of various shows and anime. The human had great interest in them. The images made him remembered when he was watching them, "You try to be a real ninja?"

"Yes. They are so cool. They can be sneaky, super spies and assassins," he explained with excitement.

"Hope you don't want to be an assassin," Ziun replied.

The human nervously chuckled, "N-not that. That's evil to kill anyone. I just want to be like them."

"Maybe one day," he encouraged the boy.

Akatsuki climbed on the bed and asked, "Want to come? I can share it."

"You sure?"

"Zanya did the same with his buddy. I saw it, even if he said I'm just imagining things," he lightly smirked.

"Well… if you don't mind," he said with hesitation.

The monster took out his breastplate and his chest were covered by his pale gray fur. He climbed on the bed, "Thank you for sharing."

"No problem. You are our friend."

The monster smiled at that reply and they slowly went to sleep. Ziun had trouble falling asleep, while the boy was already in the dream world. His mind was puzzled. The quiet made him think about who he was and if he was supposed to do something, I just know my name and someone wants me dead. I might come out of that statue in China. How did I lose everything? Did that demon go after me and I escaped with a wound? Probably. No answer came and he was restless.

The monster gasped when the child cuddled on his fluffy chest.

Ziun stopped thinking and gazed at the human. He smiled as he put his hand on the boy's back. The cuddling pushed away his uneasiness and felt asleep. He wasn't alone and this child was his friend. He was happy that this boy trusted his so quickly.


AC: This is the end of this chapter. It seems like Ziun is getting pretty close to Akatsuki. I didn't think it would go that way, but the flow of this chapter slowly went that way, the moment I decided that he tried to help Ziun remembering his name.
