Symphogear of the Wind
Chapter 8: Like the Wind
In the last chapter Uneru battled the scotsman known as Soap Mactavish. But the two are soon ambushed by the radical organization known as Tartarus. The two symphogear users fall into a lagoon where they move towards Tartarus organization's base.
We are Uneru
Uneru:(looking around) There isn't an entrance...Well not in sight at least.
Soap: Then we'll make one.
Stabbing his sword into the wall, he cuts out a circle in the wall and kicks it down. Okay… That's one way of doing it. I could have easily have launched us over the wall. "They have a small town here. In the center of it is a base like church. If that's destroyed then their power is lost." So break their faith then capture them. Nice. "Ok. Let's go." We enter the town and and suffice to say it's a ghost town. That's when we hear the sound of engines coming towards town. "Hide!" We jump into a nearby outhouse. Oh god it's cramped in here! "Shh! Shut it!" Soap tells me. After a bit of talk from the goons, the sound of them driving off. A silence grows around us. "I think they're gone." Soap says.
Uneru:(raises an eyebrow) Are you sure?
Soap:(nods) Aye. It's quite.
That's when I hear the sound of a missile launch towards us. "Crap! Hold on!" I create a wind barrier that defends us from the shrapnel and the blast. Now the soldiers have us surrounded. "Kill them!" Shouts one of the Tartarus goons. "Jump now!" I shout. The two of us jump into the air, and I keep the barrier that deflects the bullets. We land back on the ground our blades at the ready. But before we can slice anyone, we are pulled back by the chain. "This might not work." We can't do battle like this. We're gonna get decimated. "Of course it will work, we're a lethal pair." That may be true but… "Behind you!" I shout pointing to a goon. Soap swings me around, smacking a guy, stabbing my blade into the ground I spin Soap around smacking two more guys.
Uneru:(turns to Soap) The bow relies on the arrow, the arrow relies on the arrow, but they are never tied together!
Soap:(looking around) That would be pointless now wouldn't it.
Uneru:(nods) Exactly! Together we are formidable but shackled our power is pointless! We must be free!
Soap:(Smiles) Aye free! Then we'll take them together!
That's when I notice a giant...cannon… "Wait what? Are you sure That's an anti-Noise weapon?" Soap responds with. "Aye. It's a Rail gun!" What?! A railgun?! "Why? How would that even be considered a Anti-Noise weapon?" Soap just shrugs. "Argh! I know that's not important whatever.(readies blade) Fragarach chun anrud singh~" The Fragarach armor appears on me.
Soap:(smiles) Oh! So that's what you can do! Well then. So will I!(lifts blade) Amhrán chun an Lann~
The Singing sword dawns armor on Soap. Similar to how the Fragarach is, that the armor is a modern form of the knights of old. But while mine is more made for speed, his is made for more brute force, and damage. The eyes of his helmet is a lime green. A cloak glows down the back of his armor. "Let's go!" I exclaim. The two of us turn to the rail gun being fired. We move our bodies out of the way, but the metal hits the chain breaking the metal. We land back on the ground. "Let's rock!" I shout as we charge towards the men of Tartarus.
(Starts playing: Blow out)
Charging forwards I take out a second blade and attach it to the base of the first blade. "Raaagh!" I twirl the blade around, I slash through a crowd of goons as a blast launches them all about the town.
"Concentrated Airwave!"
Detaching both blades from each other and attaching them to my arms. I hear footsteps behind me, I quickly turn around and I start to cut them down. I focus air around the tips of the blade and I launch them as projectiles. Making contact the air blasts into walls and buildings. I turn around to see Soap cutting through waves of goons. "Not bad! But can you take all of them?" Soap asks. "Heh." I turn to my right as tanks begin to approach me. "I can do more than that." I shout as I detach both blades from my arms. Connecting the two together into a broad sword, the blade extends into what I like to call a Tank Buster blade! "Eat this!" I use the air to propel myself towards the tanks, and also using air I use it to assist me in slicing through the Tanks.
"Tank Buster Crash!"
"Ooh. Now I can't fall behind!" Soap raises his blade as energy flows into it. "Raaagh~!" Energy forms into a broadsword. "Try this!" Slamming the blade into the ground it sends a wave of energy.
"Singing Wave!"
The wave blast through several building hitting the massive church, and it starts to fall apart. "Nice." I say, Soap nods in agreement. "It's time to end this Laddy!" We charge towards the remaining forces. "IyaaaahhhH~!" I shout. "YAAAAAH~!" Soap shouts. We charge towards the remaining Tatarus forces. The two of us start bashing, slashing and blasting all of the remaining goons.

"You guys really weren't prepared for us." I say smirking at the Tataros leaders being loaded up into a transport vehicle. "Nice job Laddy." Soap says putting out his hand. "It was nice working with you." I say shaking his hand. "You Japs are to polite." Different cultures, different traditions. "It's called honor." I say with my armor disappearing into thin air. "Guess this is you leaving now then." I say crossing my arms.
Uneru:(sighs) Well I need to go back eventually.(gets grabbed) Wha-
Soap:(Hugs Uneru) Then let's go out drinking to commemorate our victory!
Uneru:(Sweatdrop) I-I'm old enough to drink.
Soap:(laughs) I ment as in having food and drinking!
"Oh...Ok." Soap says dragging me over to one of the cars. I just hope he means what he says.
Location Change: Bar
I sit at the bar table, in awe of everyone. All of the adults are getting drunk, and Soap is having what I like to think is soda. But I'm sure he's getting drunk with the adults as well. Soap is having all the same attributes of being drunk. I keep forgetting that all cultures have their weird moments. "Hey. *Hic!* Check out my sword!" Wait. That guys doesn't hav- Oh god that a Dick! I look away as I tell the man in front of me. "Jesus! Pull up your pants!" I shout covering my eyes. "You pull up you're *Hic!* Pahnts!" Ok. At that point that wasn't even english.
Everyone: Drink up Uneru!
Uneru:(sweatdrop) I-I'm good thanks.(whispering) Someone help me. Please?
Location change: Tokyo Japan Genjuros mansion
"Sigh~" I set down my luggage and a large wood crate in the entrance of the house. "Welcome home, Uneru." Genjuro says waking up in his workout clothes. "Kanade-san's training?" I ask with Genjuro nodding. "Oh, I see. Well, I'm gonna relax in my room. Tell me when it's dinner kay? Thanks." I drag my stuff back to my room. Setting it all down, before I fall down on my back as I have many times before… Dear god that was in incredibly tiring.
?:(Enters room) Hey! How you doing?
Uneru:(looks at Kanade) Hi. I'm relaxing after dealing with crazy people and being dragged to a bar you?
Kanade:(chuckles) Whoa. Good to see you back too. What's with the create?
Uneru:(gets up) Huh? Oh. That, I'm not sure Soap… O-Our informant. Gave me this when I was getting on the plane. I don't know what these are actually. I don't know what it is.
I create a blade in my hand, and I pry the top off. "Stone blocks?" I look inside. There's a note. 'Dear Uneru, I hear that these are Japanese stones. Thought you should have them.' I take a look at the stones. I look at them carefully. What the hell does he mean by japa- Oh my! "Man, they really should have given you something worthwhile than a stone." Kanade notes. "Oh my god." The realization of what these stones are.
Kanade:(raises an eyebrow) What?
Uneru:(looks up) These are water stones. Like for sharpening Blades.
Kanade:(raises eyebrows) What's so important about that?
Uneru:(turns to Kanade) Kanade-san, these stones are for sharpening Katana blades! Some of these goes for hundreds of dollars!
Both of our faces brighten. Later we sold these to a well known Katana sharpening master in Downtown Tokyo…..We had a nice meal after.
Time skip: 2 days later
"Keep up!" I shout swinging my Bokken, hitting Kanade's bow staff. "Hey! Go easy!" Kanade shouts at me. "No way! The Noise won't go easy on you! Neither will your enemies." I exclaim swinging at Kanade again, putting her on the defensive. Through the training is slow, we are making progress. Kanade pushes me back, then she thrusts the tip of the staff forwards. I drop under and knock her legs, then I bring up my Bokken to her throat.
Uneru:(smiles) Watch your step, Senpai.
Kanade:(sighs) Very funny.(lies down and ruffles hair) ...Agh! Why can't I keep up with you?!
Uneru:(extends out hand) Don't be in a rush. You'll get there. Eventually you just need to work your speed and reaction time.
"Like you need to work on your love life." Kanade says as I help her up. "Ah ha ha ha. Very funny." I look at the clock to see that it's nearing the end of the day. "Let's call it a day. You can go to the showers first." I note stretching. "Then I'll go ahead then." Kanade says as she heads over to the showers, as I take a seat on the wooden porch I slowly lie down and I let out an exhausted sigh…. "Like you need to work on your love life." …..AAAAAHHH! SHE'S TOTALLY RIGHT~! I haven't had any sort of want to get a girlfriend! I guess because of all this training with purpose to battle the Noise has blinded me to the point of not wanting a significant other. Sigh~ I look up at the roof thinking about my love relationships.
Tsubasa:(walking up) Now what's with you being all sulky?
Uneru: Ah.(sits up) Tsubasa. Just remembering to do some homework is all…
Crap… Man what was it that Soap said about girls? I'm sure he said something to me about this! I think back to my time in Scotland.
"When you're *Hic!* talking about a girlhs, you *Hic* first see if they like anyone else. *Hic* if...Not...Skjklhgksj…(passes out)"
Right...I get the general idea about what he was saying. "Hey Tsubasa? Is there anyone you have your eyes on?" I ask. I'm taking a big risk with this. If she answers with something else, I might have to go for Kanade….Why does the thought of another man/woman with Tsubasa, piss me off? Sigh~ Calm down Uneru. She should be in a situation like me. Tsubasa looks at me with a confused look.
Tsubasa:(looks to Uneru) What do you mean?
Uneru:(rolls eyes) Oh… Like for Boyfriend or maybe Girlfriend material.
Tsubasa:(blushes) Wha?! No! I don't have anyone in mind.
"I see. Sorry for asking." I say backing up. "I-It's no problem. S-See ya." Tsubasa says walking off. "Bye." I wave. Tsubasa gets up and speed walks off. I bring up one knee and rest my arm on it. "Sigh~ What does the future hold for us now?" I mumble as I ponder what's next for me and the others. All things must come around… And getting a girl should be first… Maybe when I'm older. Oh god I sound like a introvert virgin. I let out another sigh of exhaustion.
