Garo Blood of the Chiropteran
(time for another LONG chapter and a Surprise, Enjoy)
Demonic Horrors that lurk in the darkness, Demons that hate, that feed upon mankind, there was a time when humans lived in fear of these fiends from the shadows but mankind received a ray of hope, the light of hope that was the makai knights. The demon hunters, the protectors of mankind, Thus they were Exalted by humanity

Chapter 5: A Knight's Determination and Jungle paradise
Jack is seen in front of Omoro Standing there looking at it as he felt like he's leaving a Home where he felt like he belongs there but he does know it's only for awhile until he and the others get George back. Then Amber and Memori as Well as Saya and Hagi stand behind him waiting for him.
"Let's Get him back" Said Jack As he walks to one of the Cars with the others as they Got in and Drove off to the airport.
While inside one of the car Amber Looks at Saya Whom she is sitting next to and puts her hand on her shoulder as Saya Looks to Amber. "We'll Get him back Home Saya, We promise." Amber said while she smiles to Saya as She does the same.
Meanwhile Memori was looking outside the Window As the car was moving, Memori Began thinking about his Past on how he became a makai knight. "Memori?" Amber Asked "Is Something Bothering you?" Amber Asked again?
Memori Shook his head and smiled while he Continued to look out the window.
While looking out Memori began having Flashbacks as he began to remember his Past, Remembering how he became Zen.
(Some Years ago)
We See a young Memori Training with a Veteran Makai Knight as He sends a kick to the Veteran but The old man Dodges the kick and counters Memori with a right hook sending him flying into a tree as Memori falls to the ground and Started coughing.
"You shouldn't push yourself too far, Because your body could give out at any given moment especially fighting Horrors. But that doesn't mean you should give up on becoming strong either, That is Why a Knight mustn't give up because We makai knights have a duty to protect Humans from these fiends from the shadows" Said the old man as he threw a wooden sword to Memori as it landed near him.
"Now take your Sword and we will continue your training" Said The old man as he Readies himself to attack. As Memori got up with the sword in his hand and charges At The old man with everything he's got. A few hours go by and the old man was Kneeling on the Ground as He Looks up at Memori.
"You're ready" Said the old man as he got up, pulling the Zen sword from behind his back and handing it to Memori as he takes the Sword from the veteran makai knight.
"I pass my armor of Zen to you, You are now a Makai Knight Memori" Said the old man as A flash of light Shines As we now see the Young Memori Stands near his now Former mentor's Grave and leaving flowers and bowing his head to show his gratitude to his fallen Mentor as His Mentor's spirit is seen smiling upon Memori.
(Airport)
"So What Happened while I was Out?" Jack asked while he was getting out of the car. "We've heard that George was taken to a U.S. Base here somewhere near Okinawa but it was a Trap and we got out of there before it got bombed but We got intel from there before the trap was sprung" Said Memori while he got out of the car as well. "While we were there Those things appeared." Amber said as she got of the car out as well. "The Chiropterans?" Jack asked as a response.
"Yes, But those Things nearly got me and Memori a couple of times but David, Hagi and Saya were there to help look for George" Said Amber as she remembers Seeing Saya killing 3 chiropteran then Seeing their dead bodies crystalize after falling to the ground.
"How did you guys get out of there?" Jack asked again.
"Kai." Saya Said as she and Hagi walked over to them. "Kai got to us in time and told us about the aerial bombing info he got from Julia, that's when We all got out in time and got to a safe distance before the bombing happened" Said Saya while She looked at Jack and The other two.
"I'm glad You're all Safe, Now let's get aboard our Flight" Said Jack as he walked inside the airport with the others, When they got inside they were shocked but only to find out that their Flight was cancelled because of a hostage situation at the gate of their flight.
"Well that's just great, Guess we have no choice but to use a ship to get Vietnam Now" Said David Now that he's pissed. But Then a group of at least 5 Men in masks came running towards everyone as two of them pointed Guns at the Makai knights and priestess as another Grabbed Saya.
"This One looks Cute, Maybe we'll have fun with her, But if any of you try something, this Place will become a bloodbath. Got it? " Said the man holding Saya Hostage But then two screams were heard as two of the men were somehow disarmed as they grasping their hands while their guns were glowing red as they were radiating heat from them.
"Huh?" the man Exclaimed as he was looking at them and Sees Amber pointing her Madou brush at them as the brush was glowing green.
"WHAT!? ARGH!" The Man screamed as he Lets go of Saya after She bites his hand and gets out of the way only for Hagi to punch him in the face, knocking him out.
As Police sirens were heard telling them that the Cops have arrived.
"Freeze! On the Floor NOW!" The cops Demanded as they pointed their guns at everyone and then One of the Airport employees Went up to one of the officers, telling them what Happened. Then The others decided to go after giving the officer their side of what happened and left.
"Never do That Again Amber" Said Memori as he got in the Car.
"It was either let Them have their way with us or stop them before things got out of hand, YOU Try Making that decision while Being in my shoes during that situation." Amber replied as everyone else got in the other cars and drove off to the seaport as Amber Got in the same one as Jack and Memori, driving off following the others.
(3 years ago somewhere in texas)
We see a Young Amber Walking home from School but mostly Walking home from the game store since she spends a lot of time there, as it was nearly night time, Minding her own business but Then a Man walks up to her and Grabs her arm and starts pulling her along, taking her to an Empty House and bring her inside as It's fully night time and Suddenly Punching sounds and Glass breaking was heard and then came a death roar and a giant blast is heard along with a flash of Light and then Silence. As we See Amber Walk out of the Empty house unscathed and Walking Like Nothing Happened and suddenly her cell Phone started ringing as she pulls it out and answers it.
"Hi Dad!" Amber said. As she talks to her Father on the phone, "Are you okay?" Her father Asked "Yes I'm Fine, Just another one of those nights,No biggie." Amber Replied. "You know I'm thinking about picking you up from school from now on." Her Father Said.
"Dad, I can Handle myself, Besides I'm a makai Priestess after all." Said Amber as the next scene shows Amber Fighting a Horror and winning but then Another Horror appears and attacks, Knocking Amber Against a wall as the other was about to finish her but then Out of Nowhere a Makai Knight Wearing silver Hagane armor appeared and Slashes the Horror in Two but then The other horror Stabs him in the back as Amber saw this she Uses her madou brush to blast the horror but the Horror retreated as Amber Watches the knight Bleed,She ran to him then his armor disengaged revealing to be her father.
"Dad!" Amber Yelled as she Was shocked seeing her father bleeding but he's still Kneeling
"I'll Live But I think my days as a Makai knight are over" Her Father Said with a smile and chuckle. As Days passed Amber is sitting in her living room. Vowing to find the Horror That ended Her Father's Days as a makai knight.
As Her Father walked into the living room with a cane. "I think it's time that We moved to a quieter Place." Her father Said as the Scene changes to him being A watchdog of the makai order while residing somewhere in america. As Amber Remains in Texas watching over things and looking for the Horror that forced her father to retire as a knight
"I'll find that Horror and stop him for You Dad, I swear it." said Amber as She looks to the sun rise.
(Present day)
As our heroes Arrived at the seaport as they stop the car, opening the doors as they got out and see a Giant Grey Ship. "Hey Guys, Took you long enough!" Said a voice that Sounded like Riku as Jack looks up and sees that the others have already boarded.
"Well we would've gotten here sooner if Traffic wasn't a Bitch" Memori Said as he got his part of the luggage out of the trunk and started walking towards the ship, as Jack Grabs his suitcase and some of Amber's Madou cases since her other cases were full of clothes and Games. As Amber Grabbed the rest of her stuff she too started walking towards the ship and boarded it.
(inside the ship)
"So how long will it Be until we reach Vietnam?" Jack Asked as David Walked Towards Him. "At Least 2 weeks" David Said As Jack's Eyes widen to the fact that it's going to take that long but he knows that they have very little time and George may not last that long for them to save him.
"Jack there is a Way that will make it feel like a day's trip and will get you there faster" Said Zaruba as Jack sighs because he knows what Zaruba was Talking about and looks to Amber.
"Amber, you got those Madou tools that cause flight no matter how heavy the object is?" Jack Asks As Amber nods her head and pulls a case full of Flight pelts, Making Jack Raise an Eyebrow. "I don't think that'll be enough" Jack Implied to Amber.
"Ahem, I was Talking about the hidden path to the District in Vietnam Because I'm pretty sure a portal will take us there and certain there's a watchdog tower and a group of Makai knights patrolling in Vietnam" Said Zaruba.
"So Where's the hidden path and this Hidden portal?" Asked Memori as He pulls out a map and places it on a table But Amber pulls out her madou brush.
"Just Leave everything to Me, Knight boy" Said Amber As she casts a makai spell to find the hidden path and portal. While They let Amber handle the location as they go get settled in.
But then Memori Pushes Jack into a wall and throws a Punch only for it to get caught by Jack. "How Many Horrors have you Beaten, Golden Boy?" Memori Asked.
"Before Koran Killed The People I cared about, It was only 33 but I've lost count ever since Hunting down Koran" Jack Said As he lets go of Memori's Fist.
"Maybe Zaruba knows." Memori Guessed as Jack looked to Zaruba. "You've lost count of The Horrors you've slain?, You're Lucky you have me to count, including the Horrors you've slain two days ago you've cut down 78 horrors in total, that's 45 more since the past 7 months, Jack" Said Zaruba As Kai Walks up and Taps Jack on his Shoulder.
"Jack, Amber Told me tell you that she found Something about a hidden path." Jack nodded to Memory, Walking back to the main deck to check up on Amber.
(scene change,Amber's quarters)
"It'll take us 4 hours South west of here to get there?" Jack asked, "Yes But There's a little problem." Said Amber holding her madou Brush and using it to pinpoint the location of the hidden path and portal. And to their surprise it's being Guarded by a Famous makai knight but they don't know who.
Then Hagi Walks in With Saya. "This Path, Is it safe?" Hagi Asked. "And Are you Sure this path will be fast enough to Take us to Vietnam?" Saya Asked Looking worried. Jack Nods assuring them that the path is safe enough but there's one obstacle that is in their Way is another Makai knight. But the question in Jack's mind is Whom.
Jack Decided to Start Thinking about the Makai Knight guarding the hidden path and portal as He went to his quarters to think.
"Who is he? Think Jack, Think Who is the makai Knight guarding the portal?" Jack thought, But Then Lewis comes into his room.
"Jack, Dinner is ready you should come and eat" Said Lewis telling him before he went back to the dining hall. "You should eat Jack Because you can't Fight horrors on an Empty Stomach" Zaruba said Looking at Jack. But Jack Ignores Zaruba as his mind was Still on the Makai knight guarding the path.
(the hidden path)
As 4 hours passed our heroes arrived at some sort of gate guarding the portal, as the makai group and Hagi looked to see if anyone is around. But Then Memori is suddenly attacked from Behind by Someone hitting him in the back of the head, knocking Memori out. Making Jack, Amber and Hagi turn around, to Their Surprise as they see Memori is Down, Then a Young Man with Silver hair and blue eyes holding a makai Blade looks at them and starts walking forward to them. As Hagi was about to pull out one of his daggers but Jack stops him before things get worse.
"I Am Garo the Golden knight." said Jack as he pulls out the Garoken in its red scabbard to prove that he is Garo. Then The Young Man Stands down and points to Jack with his index finger.
"You dare to Show up Here?" the Young man Asked. "Without Contacting me First? I would've made snacks and tea if I knew you were coming" Said the man as he sounded happy that he had visitors.
"I'm Jin, The White Lotus Knight, Zanga!" Said Jin As he reaches his hand out for a handshake.
"I wish we have Time to get to know each other but we need the portal to Reach Vietnam, and we're very short on time because we need to save someone before it's too late." Jack Said While Memori was getting back on his feet and rubbing the back of his head.
"Oh The Portal? Why didn't you say so?" Jin Exclaimed as he opens the Gates of the hidden path revealing the portal by casting a spell. "The Deed is Done, You can get to Vietnam from here, Oh And I'm coming along with you, Because I'm Getting a little bored guarding this Place and My Brother Shin can take it from here." Jin Said walking to The ship as Our heroes follow him back.
(Vietnam Seaport)
A flash of light is shown as the ship has appeared near the docks of the Vietnamese seaport as the ship is still sailing towards the docks. "We're almost to the Docks… How is Everyone?" Jack asked Everyone seeing that they're okay but Lewis was feeling a little sick from going through the portal.
Then Jack decides to go to the ship's bridge and wait for Everyone there until they Reach the docks. Then Hagi began sat down while pulling out his Cello out of his case and starts playing it for the time being until they reach the docks, Then Saya walks into The Bridge and Saw Jack Looking to the horizon, As She Wonder What Jack is thinking about.
"Jack?" Saya Asked As Jack Looks at her while turning to her. "Is Something on your mind?" Saya Asks again while she put her hand on his Shoulder. "Just Gazing at the Ocean, Why?" Jack Asked while he was thinking of a way to stop Koran and Save George. Then Saya moves her hand away from Jack's Shoulder. As Jack goes Back to Looking at the Ocean and back to his thinking.
"Jack, I'm Your Friend, these past few days may have been troubling but You Have to Know Is That We're Here for you, And We'll be there for you if Needed, You must realize that you're not Alone, and Realize that We're also your Family ever since you came into our lives and helped us out at Omoro and-." Said Saya only to be stopped mid sentence by Hagi as he Appeared behind her, while putting his hand on her Shoulder, letting her Know that Jack Must do This battle with Koran Alone when the time comes as Saya Looks to Hagi.
"Jack has to do this alone When The Time comes Saya, Because the Battle between them is a battle only the Knights can settle,For this isn't our battle, Our Battle is with the Chiropteran" Said Hagi Taking his hand off of Saya's Shoulder and bringing her back to her quarters.
Little while later After the Ship reaches the Docks
We See Jack get off the ship and started walking around the docks looking for some clues about George's and Koran's whereabouts as the Sun rises "Looks like we won't have to worry about any horrors until Sun down Jack." Said Zaruba as Jack nodded and kept walking.
Then A Man with long hair started Tailing Jack but Jack Doesn't even noticed that he was being followed.
"Zaruba do you know where the Watchdog tower is?" Jack asked, "I believe it's somewhere North in the town ahead from here." Zaruba Replied as Jack kept Walking North to find the country's watchdog.
(In front of a Cafe)
As We see the Expression on Jack's face for he has found where the watchdog is.
"A Cafe? The Watchdog tower is a Cafe?" Jack Exclaimed just by the tone of his voice as he was in disbelief and not what he expected. "Well we should go inside and meet our watchdog." Said Zaruba as Jack walked inside only to find it empty.
"Hello?" Jack called but no one answered as He continues to walk inside but then a voice is heard.
"So a knight has arrived in my domain, Shame I would've had the place up and running, if I knew I had visitors coming, but I doubt someone like you would enjoy cookies unlike a certain scythe wielding knight with a red hood I know of who would enjoy an entire plate of chocolate chip cookies. So what brings you here?" the Voice asked as Jack stood there trying to find where the voice was coming from.
"Down here Stupid" the voice said as Jack looks down to find a kid with Blonde hair and blue eyes, wearing some kind of millitary uniform looking up at him.
"You're the watchdog?" Jack asked while the child nodded and started walking around looking at the knight and then stopping in front of Him
"You don't seem like much, But how do I know that you're really worthy of the Title of the Golden knight?" The Watchdog Asked before pointing her finger at Jack demanding to prove himself to her as Jack pulled out the Garoken out to show to her before drawing the sword but is Stopped by her.
"That is Enough, the Red scabbard is proof enough for me. Golden knight." the watchdog said.
"The reason I'm here is because I'm looking for Koran and I believe he is here, somewhere in Vietnam, Do you know of his presence?" Jack asked as The Watchdog's eyes widen up when she heard the name Koran.
"He was here. And he slaughtered my best guards like they were nothing. And then he said something about releasing a new type of horror at A boarding School." The watchdog said In a stern tone as she grasps her fist and points to a statue of a wolf.
"Now Cleanse your blade and Stop this New horror that he's going to unleash and also that other ring you have, How is it that it came into your possession?" The Watchdog asked as Jack Pulled out the madou RIng he found. Showing an eye in the middle as there were two spaces in its face and what appears to be the lower face of a female.
"Strange, Why don't you leave that ring with me so I can Study it, besides it would help get my mind off of things and him" The Watchdog said taking the ring from Jack as he gave the ring to her. As he went to the wolf statue and inserted the blade of the garoken into its mouth, Clearing the blade of evil Ki from slaying horrors. Then Several Daggers appear as they gently fall near the watchdog's feet.
"Please Make sure those never get into the wrong hands." Jack said sheathing the garoken and takes his leave, but Stops and turns around looking at the watchdog. "By the way, What is your name?" Jack asked.
"I'll give you a hint Let's just say Someone who has been reincarnated and lead a unit into battle and leave it at that, Now Go Golden Knight Garo, Stop Koran and meet me at the next watchdog tower location since I must leave this location due to an attack from Koran" The watchdog said and pointed to Jack to go forth and Stop Koran.
"That still doesn't tell me why that you're the watchdog here in Vietnam" Said Jack as the Watchdog tilted her hat as a sign telling that she doesn't want to tell him why.
(At A hotel 5 days later)
"Are you Sure?" David Asked as Jack nods while we Hear Kai and Riku yelling and the sound of wooden swords clashing, telling us that they're Training with JIn and we see Amber Thinking about what the watchdog meant by new type of horror, while Memori is sharpening his Makai Blade to prepare it to fight some horrors if need to be while he's patrolling for the night.
"And She also mentioned about a boarding School where Koran will be releasing the new horror type, but The Question is why?" Jack Asked himself then a phone rings as David answers it and on the other line is Saya Talking to him.
"You're sure That it was A chiropteran that Attacked you at the school, Saya?" David Asked As Jack got up and wanted to know where Saya is because The Horror might be where Saya is right now as He walked out of the hotel room Only to be stopped by Julia as she shakes her head. Jack reluctantly went back inside the hotel room.
"Wait, Did You Say the Phantom had some sort of Dagger on him?" David asked as Jack takes the Phone from David and Starts Talking to Saya. "Saya it's Jack where are you right now?" Jack asked.
"Lycee De Cinq Fleches" Saya Answered.
"I'm on my way, Stay with Hagi and don't do anything rash until I get there because he might turn you or someone else into a horror as long as he has that dagger." Jack replied as he gave the phone back to David and ran out the door as quickly as possible to get to Saya's Location in time so he can stop the horror.
(Saya and Hagi)
"Jack's on his way, He thinks the Phantom will turn someone here into a horror" Said Saya as she hangs up and began to remember the last few days when Jack Fought Koran and was wounded by him as a worried look is shown on her face,
"Hagi, The stab Wound on Jack's back, Do you think it looked kinda close to his heart and that's what's been bothering me about him, Those other scars. They looked like they weren't made by a sword, they look like they were made by some sort of beast when we treated him, I don't know why but I got this feeling in my chest that something bad is going to Happen to him, Riku and Kai." Saya said as she put her hand on her chest and looks to Hagi
"Promise me that You'll make sure None of Them will get hurt." Saya said as Hagi Nods as his way of telling her that he will keep his promise to Saya, Then Saya's Roommate Min runs up to Saya and Started talking.
"Saya is it true That you saw the Phantom last night?" Min Asked until she but Then A man Named Karl Walks Up to them and smiles. "You must be Saya, Ms Lee told me so much about you" Karl Said as his words sent an ominous feel towards Saya.
"I hope we can speak again real soon" Karl said as he takes his leave, Leaving Saya to wonder about him. Then Ms Lee walks towards Saya and Hagi as they look at her.
"I've heard that you were out after curfew last night when you should've been sleeping Ms. Saya, do you know the punishment for breaking the rules here?" Ms Lee asked as Saya began to look worried that her cover might be blown until Someone is heard.
"Ms. Lee there's a young man Praying in the chapel" Said a Student which Caught Ms. Lee's attention as she goes to see who is it, Giving Saya a sigh of relief but then the words "young man" came to her mind making her wonder if Jack was there already.
(Chapel)
At the chapel Ms Lee arrives to see Jack wearing some sort of church uniform sitting in one of the benches praying as She approaches him. "May I Help you"? Ms Lee asked as Jack Got up and bowed to her.
"I'm so sorry to intrude unannounced but When I saw that this school had a chapel I thought I start praying and receive our good Lord's blessings while I'm here." Jack said as Saya Was Looking from outside the chapel while Hagi was Wondering how he get here so quickly.
"I must say that this is a lovely Chapel and I heard that it has a lovely Garden too." Jack Said as Ms. Lee nods while Jack notices Karl staring at him from afar until he hid himself from Jack's sight as Karl was holding 2 sealed daggers as he began to get angry that it was someone he was following earlier at the docks was here at the school.
"Shit. that's the same guy I was following yesterday how did he find me. Wait he doesn't know about me yet maybe there's a chance that I can kill him here and now but it has to be at night" Karl Thought to himself as Jack Continued to talk to Ms. Lee.
"I also heard a Rumor about a Phantom attacking girls at Night." Jack said while Ms. Lee tilted her head a little as she knows very little about the phantom but heard a lot of girls went missing as Karl's Eyes widen knowing that he has very little time and must kill Jack before it's too late but must wait as Karl hatches a scheme.
"I know I will use one of these daggers on one of the females here at the school but the question is, Which?" Karl thought to himself. As night falls as Every student went to the mess hall to eat Dinner. While We see Karl and Ms. Lee talking to each other in another location as Ms. Lee finishes talking to Karl and turns her back but then Karl pulls one of the daggers out and stabs Ms. Lee as she Screams in pain as she is forcefully turned into a horror. and Karl is seen smiling.
"You know what to do find the One Named "Jack" and kill him while the Girl named "Saya" is mine, Now Go" Karl said as A shadow resembling a venus flytrap rises and reverts back to the form of Ms. Lee and leaves the room as if nothing happened.
(the Mess hall)
Saya is Seen eating with her Roommate Min As Saya takes a bite of a Sandwich.
"So Saya did you see that Jack guy in the chapel, What do you think of Him? Do you think he's kinda cute?" MIn Asked as Saya Gains a blush when she heard the question.
"I-I-I Don't know what you're talking about, there's no way I Like Him in that kind of way, He Just Helps out around the Restaurant is all!" Saya said as she was blushing deep red as Min Got a confused look on her face.
"Wait? You already know him Saya?" Min Asked as Saya blushed even deeper knowing that her cover is blown and decided to Tell Min Everything as she got to her ear whispered everything that she knew to Min.
"So you're telling me that he helped your family's restaurant with his friends while living with you and your family and also He saved you from a monster?" Min Asked As Saya nods.
"He sounds so Romantic, Hey since he's just Your Friend, Would you introduce me to him sometime and You wouldn't Mind if I'd get his number from You?" Min asked as a sweat drop appears on Saya's Head as she laughs nervously then a scream is heard as Ms. Lee is seen lifting a student up by the collar of her uniform and started devouring her as Students screamed and began running to the nearest exit but then a green flame appeared and burned Ms. Lee before she could grab another student as marks appeared in her eyes showing that she is a horror as Jack appears in his makai knight attire pointing Zaruba at the now horror possessed Ms. Lee.
"I was hoping to get to the phantom but it looks like I have to put you out of your misery first Ms. Lee." Jack Said as he draws the Garoken and summons his Armor becoming Garo as Ms. Lee turns into the venus flytrap horror Succubus and charges at Garo knocking him through a wall and bringing him outside. But then a man appears, Revealed to be the Phantom that attacked Saya and started smiling and walking towards Saya only to be attacked by Hagi as he throws Saya Her sword as Min looked scared and confused to what's going on about the current situation.
(Outside)
We see Garo fighting Succubus as he Is struggling to land a hit on the horror as vines grabbed his right arm holding him in place. But Then Jin appears and attacks the horror as he draws a helix in the air summoning his armor and donning himself in White armor becoming Zanga. As he turns and slices the vine holding Garo's arm.
"Good thing I came along when you needed me to help you find your way around town" Zanga Said looking at Garo and turns his sight on the horror and starts attacking it with Garo not too far Behind as Succubus throws a punch only for its arm to be cut by Zanga.
"DAMN YOU MAKAI KNIGHT!" The Horror screamed as it was holding its wounded arm as Garo was about to finish the horror off but it dodges and escapes inside the school heading towards Saya. then Garo Runs after the Horror because he realizes that this was a distraction made by the Phantom to keep him away from Saya and Hagi.
(Chapel)
Back at the chapel Saya And Hagi are Fighting the Phantom with Min Hiding and watching them. As Saya Swung her Sword at the Phantom only for the Phantom to dodge every move. Then Hagi Struck the Phantom into a wall but got back up and tackles Hagi only for Saya to swing her Sword at him and cutting his back but the Phantom hits her knocking her against a wall and making her drop her sword.
"Koran told me to bring you in and have the golden knight killed but now I have changed my mind I'll kill you first and then kill the golden knight and burn this entire building down," The Phantom said while approaching Saya but then Hagi throws one of his daggers at the Phantom hitting the back of his shoulder as the Phantom went back to Hagi and decides to finish him off but then Jack appears and Punches the phantom off of Hagi and Knocking his mask off revealing to be Karl as he is knocked unconscious.
"Are you Two Okay?" Jack asked as Hagi got up and nods and goes to check on Saya. and Then Min walks out into the opening wanting to know what is going on and then a death scream is heard telling Jack and the others that the Horror is slain and sealed by Jin as Saya And Hagi look at Jack.
"Jin helped me get here because he knows a lot about hidden makai paths and this country" Jack said before Saya and Hagi could ask how he got there to Lycee de cinq Fleches so fast as Karl regained consciousness and pulls out the last horror sealed dagger he has on him and stabs himself with it screaming in pain alerting the four as they turn their heads looking at him shocked to see what he's becoming as he changes into His Chiropteran form and roars.
"No! What has he done!?" Jack asked himself as JIn has only arrived too late as The Chiropteran Gains new features to his form as his eyes became white as they were soulless and gained spikes on his back and an exoskeleton ribcage forms on his chest and with his transformation complete he roars and charges through Jack, Hagi and Saya knocking them out of the way and grabbing MIn as Min Screams only for the Chiropteran Horror hybrid to bite the left half of her Body off as Blood is spilled on the floor and Min thrown to the ground as the Hybrid is dissatisfied with his meal and decides to go after Our Three Heroes only to be attacked By Jin
"Min!" Saya Screamed as Jack gets back up and Sees Min's Body near Saya. Enraged, Jack Draws the Garoken and summons his armor and charges at the Hybrid stabbing it's back while it has its sights set on Jin as Garo started running up its back hoping it would be enough to finish it off as Garo pulled the garoken out of the hybrid's back and jumps in front of it and stabs its heart. The Hybrid screams in pain and knocks Garo off leaving the garoken in its chest. Then Jin summons his armor becoming Zanga once more and starts attacking the the hybrid.
"Min, Min Speak to me!" Saya Said Holding Min's near dead body but Min cannot be saved as her body is half eaten by the chiropteran horror hybrid as Saya Began to cry as she was losing a new friend.
"S..Saya don't eat.. So much or you'll get…" Min said as the last bits of life from her eyes has faded away for Min has died. Then Something in Saya has snapped as her eyes glow red and gets back on her feet and screamed at the top of her lungs while she sets her sights on the chiropteran Horror.
"Hagi. My Sword" Saya said as she opened her hand demanding her sword as Hagi nods and hands her her sword as Saya cuts her hand and her blood goes into the blade of the sword and Charges toward the Hybrid.
"Jack, I don't think we can last longer if this keeps up" Zanga said as he slashes at the Hybrid only to have Little effect on it, but then Saya slices one of its arms off as it screams in pain as it looks to Saya and glares at her as its arm began to crystallize but then it started to disintegrate leaving behind a red metal ore piece shiny like the Blood red crystals on Hagi's Daggers. As the Hybrid screamed it began to speak.
"D...DAMN...Y...YOU" The Hybrid spoke as it held its wounded area where its arm used to be. Only for Garo to grab the Garoken out of the chest of the chiropteran horror hybrid and slashing its eye. As Garo reverts back to Jack as he looks at Hybrid's wounds as they were crystallizing.
"I'll let You all Live, So I can kill you another day" The Hybrid jumps through a wall making a hole causing Dust to cover his escape leaving nothing but pain, Destruction and Sorrow behind as Saya is seen Standing near Min's Dead body as Jack looked on as he felt the same pain from his past of losing someone close to him repeating itself.
"Jack, I smell Soul Metal. Just A few feet ahead of you" Zaruba said as Jack got up and walked toward the red metal ore and kneels down and looks at it before touching it only to get a little burn after picking it up and putting it in his pocket before going towards Min's Body.
"How? How did this Happen? Min didn't deserve to die like this." Saya said to herself as Tears ran down her face as Hagi put his hand on her back trying to comfort her.
"I Should've cut his head off when I had the chance, And NONE of this would've happened."Jack said blaming himself as an innocent life was taken away right in front of their eyes and Saya's friend and Roommate for that matter.
"No, You're not to Blame, It was that Thing and Koran that killed her, Not you Jack." Said Saya as she started to walk out of the chapel with Hagi. but Then Jack took out his Madou Lighter and grabbed some broken pieces of wood and made a small circle around Min's Body and lit them creating a funeral flame to make her soul will be at elsewhere as Min's soul is seen looking back at everyone especially at Saya as Min has found peace somewhere in the afterlife as her soul ascends to the moon as Saya sheds another tear but smiles as she knows that Min is in a better place now.
"Let's get back to the Hotel. The others are waiting for us." Said Jack as he looked at the flames for a moment before walking towards the exit.
(A Military base)
"I see my plan was a success, Making a new type of Horror out of Karl was the best and most unexpected thing to ever come up with." Koran said as He Grasp his fist in victory But Van isn't so Impressed as he wanted Saya captured and brought to him.
"How is this a success when we didn't get the Girl?" Van asked as he crushes a piece of candy in his hand. "And Last time I checked, You've only brought the old Man to us instead of her" Van said Throwing the crushed piece of candy to the ground.
"Calm down, I have big plans for George and In 3 days the next phase of my plan be ready, afterall It'll be enough to make Golden Boy to give into despair and make him like me." Koran Said picking up the crushed piece of Candy and putting it into his mouth and eating it before walking off out of earshot.
"Damn him, Follow him and make sure he doesn't do anything in our plan to finding HER" Said Van ordering Soldiers to Follow Koran and make sure he doesn't do anything stupid.
(Hotel, Jack's room)
Back at the hotel we see Jack lying in his bed and looking at the ceiling thinking about what he should've done to prevent MIn's Death as he drifts off to sleep until he hears a knock on his door, He sighs and gets up from his bed and checks the peephole only to find Hagi standing in the hallway.
"Yes?" Jack answers but leaves the door closed as he sank to the floor for he was exhausted from the fight with the hybrid as well as the death of MIn was on his mind for he may not have known her but he felt great pain that made him feel that he should've done something to prevent it.
"Saya Told me to Check on you to See if you were All Right" Said Hagi as he leaned against the wall in the hallway.
"That Hybrid, it's arm was cut off by Saya. and it disintegrated but It left something behind, a piece of a Red metal ore, but it's Made of soul metal, it's unusual, as Horrors are usually sealed inside the blade of a makai blade." Jack said as the red soul metal ore sits on the nightstand next to the bed alongside Zaruba on his perch.
"What do you think it'll do if it's turned into a makai Blade?" Hagi asked as Jack wonders and Replies "I don't know". but also wonders that he may have to get a Barankas Fruit for Saya as he thinks she might've gotten horror blood on her.
"Listen, like Saya said If there's anything you want to talk about, you can always come to us, we're not only your friends but we're also your family" Hagi said as he got off the wall and starts walking back to his room to play his cello.
As Jack is seen getting up and walking towards the Garoken and draws it from its scabbard and examines it to look for clues to why it didn't kill Karl when he stabbed him in the Heart but then another knock is heard when he went to the door and checks the peephole he sees Amber, Memori and Saya. as he opens the door and invites them in and sit down for 5 minutes had Passed as Amber Examines the red soul metal ore.
"It's Soul metal all right, just not enough to make a Makai blade out of it But Enough to Repair one" Amber Said while examining it some more As Jack continue to look at the Garoken wondering if he is truly worthy of the Title Garo. "L-I mean Jack don't doubt yourself" Memori Said as he caught himself almost using Jack's real name as Jack Looks at him.
"It's not Just That, I thought The Garoken was damaged from fighting the hybrid but it's not, So I think it's Because of my wound from my battle with Koran That I couldn't defeat it." Jack said sheathing the garoken and setting it down While Saya looks out the window Thinking about Min and Ms. Lee.
"Karl and Koran, They will pay for what they did to Min and Ms. Lee" Said Saya as she clenched her fist.
(Hotel hallway, Morning)
Jack is seen Talking to David and Julia as they got intel from Lewis while he was observing the church.
"So Delta 67 is going to be holding a ball there even after what has happened there?, And you're Sure that they're going to have George there with them too?" Jack Asked as David Nods as he's sure about the intel given to him by Lewis.
"Keep me posted" Said Jack walking off
"What are they planning to do with George?" Jack wondered to himself as he walks back to his hotel room only to find a child holding a red envelope as he grabs the red letter and lights his madou lighter revealing a message and has zaruba translate it, Telling him that a Cave is near full of Inga and a large number of horrors totalling in 21 and has to slay them, Alone.
"So I must slay 22 more horrors." Said Jack as Zaruba grows Concern for the golden knight Knowing the Death of Min may have hit him pretty hard even though he didn't know her.
"Yes but you'll be missing 1 from a total of 100, So it'll be putting you at 99, Are you sure you want to do this Jack?" Zaruba Asked and Jack nods knowing that he wants to get stronger and put a stop to Koran once and for all as he walks to find the nearby cave after exiting the hotel.
Nearby Riku and Kai are seen spying on Jack as they follow him only to be stopped by Jin as They got a little scared thinking that they were busted only to receive a hush as Jin sneaks off and signaling Riku and Kai to Follow him and follow Jack but staying out of Sight so Jack can't See them coming as an Hour went by from walking to the cave's Location.
"Looks like this is it." Jack Said while walking into the cave but Stops as he knows that he's being followed.
"I know you three are following me but I have to do this alone. These are my orders from the watchdog" Jack said continuing to walk inside as Riku, Kai try to follow but only to be stopped by JIn Shaking his head as he knows not to go against the watchdog's orders.
(At the Mall and a dress shop)
We See Amber and Saya looking at ballroom Dresses for the ball as well as their mission as Amber Is seen in a changing room trying on a Red Dress, Then A Blue one and Then a Purple one as the expression on her face goes from angry to Happy as she found the perfect dress for herself as it was a certain color scheme (An Eevee's color scheme from Pokemon) as She grabs and tries it on.
"Perfect!" Amber said as she walks out of the changing room wearing the formal dress and decides to purchase it as she and changes back and brings it to the cashier while Saya picked out a Dress (the one MIn supplied Saya in the canon anime) as she brings it to the cashier as well.
"You sure want to go with that dress?" Amber asked as Saya nods and Smiles as she handed the cashier a card using it to pay for the dresses as the card was accepted meaning that payment went through and The Girls grabbed them and headed out.
(Hotel, Saya and Amber's Room)
Back at the hotel Amber and Saya are seen having lunch in their room as Saya bites into a sandwich she notices Amber working on a new type of madou tool to use against the hybrids like Karl but she felt that it's missing something though as She puts the unfinished madou tool back into one of her suitcases.
"Amber, What were you doing before going to okinawa to aid Jack?" Saya asked as Amber looked away from Saya for a moment.
"I was Hunting a Horror that nearly killed someone I cared about, he's safe but the horror got away." Said Amber as She took a bite of her own sandwich and suddenly a phone is heard ringing As Saya Answers it and on the other line was David letting her know that Hagi is going to be on standby incase of any chiropteran happen to be there at the ball.
"Got it David, Thank you." Saya Said Hanging up after talking to David and Continues eating.
(Outside the Cave)
We See Kai and Riku training with Jin while they wait for Jack as they had wooden swords, Then Sounds of Horrors screaming were heard as Jack was Slaying them one by one and then suddenly the screaming stopped as They prepared to let Jin handle it if needed as the Sound of Footsteps is heard as A figure is seen walking towards the entrance of the cave then Kai and Riku started charging toward the figure only for them to see Jack as they stopped and Jack is seen with a confused look on his face.
"What are you guys doing?" Jack Asked feeling Confused seeing Kai and Riku standing there with wooden swords
"We thought you were one of the horrors" Said Kai as he put His wooden sword away as Riku does the same.
"I've slain them all though it was tough But I've managed to pull through." Jack Said as Kai and Riku sigh with relief but Jack is a little sore from battling all those Horrors as he began walking to town to get a tuxedo for the Ball tonight but Then Jin steps in front of Jack stopping him.
"You're going to tell me what's going on Jack, I'll fight you if I have to, To get those answers." Jin Said As he draws his Makai blade.
"I'll Tell you another time, But for Now You And Lewis must keep Kai and Riku out of trouble while we're gone...and make sure they're trained well because I want to spar with them sometime." Jack Said walking past Jin and going to town.
(The Ball)
As Night has fallen, We see Amber with Memori for Memori is wearing a very dark red tuxedo and Saya with Hagi, while Hagi wearing his usual suit and then we See Julia with David as all 6 of them meet up at the Entrance but staying out of earshot of everyone else.
"Remember, our mission is looking for George and bringing him home and Finding this Karl, Amber and Memori if you see any openings to the back, I want you to take it and look for George, Saya and Hagi will stay in the Ballroom so we don't look suspicious to Anyone, Are we clear?" David asked giving out the plan to them as they all nod in Agreement. But Hagi began to Wonder where Jack is, Because Jack should've been with them by Now.
"You know you ought to Call first before you do this kind of thing without me." said Jack showing up in a tux complete with black pants, a white jacket and black bow tie while Carrying his white Duster coat as Amber and Saya were surprised by his choice of Fashion sense as Jack Started walking inside.
Inside we See Every student from Lycee de Cinq Fleches there and dancing with other students from another School who were Male and also Someone that was there among everyone else is Karl and with him a Blonde man in a white suit which caught Jack's eye and has a Suspicion about him as he kept a safe distance from them away from their sights but then he saw Saya walking around and only interested in the Food instead of being interested in dancing at the ball as she gazes at the food.
"You're Still Seeing "her" Everytime you look at Saya, Jack?" Zaruba Asked as Jack Flicks him as a response to his question before Turning around Around and Seeing A bunch of Female Students lined up, Smiling and are eager to Dance with the Golden knight but he starts to sweat as one girl grabs his arm, pulling him away from the other girls.
"Thanks, I owe you one." Jack said turning around and seeing that it's one of Saya's classmates Anna-Marie as She pulls him to the dance floor and begins dancing with him.
(Somewhere in the back of the building)
We See George with his arms shackled to the ground and with an I.V. injecting him with Blood that labeled "D-67" and staring at a wall with 5 military soldiers guarding him as one of them has a horror dagger on them as they were waiting for something to happen like an order.
"When do we get to eat?" One of the soldiers asked as the other Soldier shrugged but then a Noise is heard in the distance as George turned around and looked to Find Amber and Memori taking care of the guards Knocking them out as they were Human, Assuming they were human, Because they didn't have much time and they needed to get George out of there.
"You two shouldn't have come here." George said staring at the wall feeling that he needs to tell them something important but can't tell them for some reason as Amber helped lift him up from the floor while freeing him from his shackles and putting his arm on her shoulder and helping him walk towards the cell door
"You can thank red shield and your daughter for this rescue mission but right now we need to get you out of here" Said Memori pulling out his makai blade as he heard the Soldiers began to rise up from the ground and began transforming into Chiropterans but then George got ready to fight as he got into a fighting stance.
"George you should stay back and let Memori handle this." Amber said Trying to get George to a safe distance, only to be pushed aside.
"Amber If I'm going to die, I'm going to die fighting and die seeing my Kids one last time." Said George sounding like he was certain that he's going to die, but he rather die fighting, Looking Worried Amber pulled out a Madou brush and a dagger and readied herself for the fight and that She and Memori must protect Him at all cost as All three of Them charged at the chiropterans.
(Back in the ballroom)
We see Jack and Anna-Marie Dancing to some ballroom music (the Classical kind) While They Danced, A blonde well dressed man with a blue rose Approached Saya and Asks her for a dance as he pins the Blue rose in Saya's hair and Brings her to the Dance floor but then Van Argiano appeared and watches the blond man and Saya about to dance but decides to interrupt
them After he's been informed About Amber and Memori freeing George as Van gets close and grabs the blonde man's arm and gets close to his ear.
"Solomon, we've been compromised, Koran Failed to tell us about the knights being here, We have to go before Koran gives Karl the order to kill" Van Whispered into the Blonde man's ear. As Solomon is being escorted away from Saya by Van who wants to get out in time before Koran does something crazy again but Then Karl walks past them going into the Ballroom as he is wearing a metal arm under his sleeve replacing the arm that's been cut off by Saya.
"That Bitch will Pay for cutting my arm off but first a little Snack" Karl Said to himself setting his sights on a couple of girls as he follows them to the restrooms. But Then a Crash is heard as A Chiropteran flies through a couple of doors and hits a wall next to Karl, Causing people to panic and interrupting his snack as we see Amber, George with his right arm the same color as a chiropteran and Memori and a dead chiropteran slain by Memori, then a clap is Heard and we see Koran clapping and smiling at the Fact that they may have fell to one of his plans.
"Bravo, Bravo! But you all should've realized that this Ball is a trap and You were too late to Save George for he's already a chiropteran and the transformation is going very slowly but it can be accelerated with a horror dagger, Now Karl!" Koran Said with a smile as Karl appears behind the trio knocking the Makai Knight and Makai Priest away from George as Karl stabs Him with the dagger, turning him into a Chiropteran Horror hybrid like he is.
"ARGH!" George Screamed as the Transformation was causing him great pain and slowly changing his already mutated arm into a more demon like form as his other arm is changed to the exact same thing as his eyes became red and has become a Hybrid like Karl.
"Amber, NOW!" Jack yells as Amber uses her madou brush to activate a spell teleporting everyone including David and Julia to a Safe place far away from the ball for she placed madou tags around the building without being seen earlier before entering the building so everyone but them can be teleported to safety as George seems to be fighting the Chiropteran and horror sides of his mind trying to keep his Humanity as his Dominant mental state as other Chiropterans Appear and started attacking Saya and the others While Koran Watches in glee as He Sees George struggling to resist the full transformation.
"I see that You still have some fight left in you Old man" said Koran walking towards George with the kokuenken drawn but Saya Came out of nowhere and Swung her Sword at Koran as Hagi wasn't Far behind as he Knocks Koran back with his Cello Case.
"So The Princess and Her bodyguard have Shown up to Save Daddy, Shame I would bring you back to Delta 67 with me but I'm not Because I Want to see more of your power!" Said Koran Clashing swords with Saya.
"Koran!, You will pay with your Life!" Jack Said attacking Koran from Behind with the Garoken cutting the back of Koran's Robe as Blood drips to the floor telling us that Koran has Been cut by Jack as He finally has had enough.
"You...You Son of a.. I'LL KILL YOU AND THAT LITTLE BITCH!" Koran Said donning the Kiba armor but is Attacked by George as Kiba is tackled through a wall and is being occupied by Fighting George while Jack hesitates to summon his Armor knowing That he must Slay George But Something inside him is holding him back as He struggles to lift the Garoken but then Saya and Hagi show up standing next to him and Watching George Fight Kiba.
"Dad..what have they done to you" Saya said crying as Hagi sees George is losing the Upper hand against Kiba Then Jack starts walking towards their fight knowing what he must do as Saya tries to go with Jack but only to be Stopped by Hagi As Jack decide on what to do.
Meanwhile Amber and Zen are Fighting off the remaining Chiropterans as Karl watches on Looking at Amber. "What a tasty looking Girl, time To eat" Karl said Licking his lips as his horror side is starting to take over and begins walking towards Amber.
"We wouldn't take another step towards them if we were you" A voice is heard as Karl Turns around and Sees Zanga and Two Hagane knights, a Tall Bronze Hagane Knight and A short Silver Hagane knight.
"Go help Jack, I'll Handle this guy, he owes me a rematch Anyway." Zanga Said as the two Hagane knights ran to where Jack is Running past Saya and Hagi as Saya Felt a familiar Presence from the new titleless knights Running to where Jack and George are. So Saya Does the same too leaving Hagi behind, as Hagi took it as an order from her to help the others fight the chiropteran
"So Old man, you just want to die that quickly, Shame!" Said Kiba Kicking George Away as he was about to deliver the finishing blow Jack arrives and blocks the kokuenken with the Garoken as Kiba Sees Jack,
"You've caused so much pain and suffering, And for What? A horror that we couldn't find for you to Fight." Jack said Kicking him away as he raises the Garoken cutting a Portal summoning His Armor becoming Garo and attacking Kiba causing Him to stumble back as he was being slashed by Garo.
Then Garo looks at George but kept on attacking Kiba instead Causing George to Recover and join in on the Attack. As Garo's and Kiba's swords deadlock with each other for they are now evenly matched after Jack had become stronger by slaining every horror in a cave before the ball. But Then Kiba Pulls out a Halberd, The AnkokuZan and Strikes Garo Away with it but only to get a Punch to the Chest by George after he jumped off of Garo's Shoulder while he, Making Kiba drop his Halberd and Causing him to get Angry.
"I'LL SLAUGHTER YOU ALL!" Kiba Yelled lighting the Kokuenken but then he is attacked by the Two Hagane knights causing the flame on the kokuenken to go out as he clashes with the two titleless knights and suddenly Saya Joins in the Fight with her cutting the cape off of Kiba enraging him some more.
"THAT'S ENOUGH!" Kiba Said pushing the two knights back and Grabbing Saya by the throat lifting her up.
"I'm going to kill you right here and Now." said Kiba as he readies himself to stab Saya but then George wraps his arms around trying to restraint him but overpowers him as he throws Saya Towards Garo.
"Saya!" Garo said as he disengages his armor reverting back to Jack and catching her so the armor won't burn her making them crash on the ground as he caught her but then they see Kiba Stab George causing their eyes to widen after witnessing what has Happened.
"You are of no use to me Anymore, Enjoy your Last moments of life with your family." said in an angry tone Kiba throws George Towards Jack and Saya.
"Next Time you die "Little Brother" and Next time you won't be so lucky girl." Kiba said as he summons a Madoba and rides off into the distance vanishing out of sight as The two Hagane knights go to where George, Jack and Saya are as the Bronze Hagane knight kneels over to George as he lays there Weak from Fighting Kiba and due to his stab wound he got from Kiba
"Dad!" The Bronze Knight Said Disengaging his armor revealing himself to be Kai as Tears fall from his eyes while he grasps his father's hand.
"Kai just in time to say goodbye, Before long I'll turn into a monster like Forest as my wounds start to close up I can feel it, I'm starting to lose my mind." George Says as he struggles to keep his Human mind intact. As the other Hagane Knight disengages his armor revealing to be Riku as he begins to cry as well.
"Jack, Saya Only the two of You are going to have to do it, Only your Blood and Jack's sword can kill these monsters." George said struggling to maintain his humanity.
"You must Mix your Blood with mine by using Jack's Sword." George said as blood pours to the ground, "So I can die now while I'm still your Father, Saya" Said George As Hagi Appears with Amber, Memori and Jin all bruised up as their battle with Karl was tough and they saw what happened and telling us that Karl got away.
"Saya, it's up to you now" Hagi Said as Kai Looks up at him "Wait, Can't Someone do something?" Kai asked as Everyone Looks down knowing there's nothing they can do.
"Kai, Once Someone becomes A Horror or a Madou horror, there's no chance of them going back to being human, the best we can do for them is to end their suffering but it's also rare that they can remain in control of their bodies but what we don't know is for how long. That is why We makai knights must end their suffering before the horror can cause Harm to others" Jack said while trying to hold back tears, cutting a small energy circle transforming only the garoken as Saya cries while grabbing Jack's arm and grasps the blade of the Garoken cutting her hand and sending blood down the blade as a drop of her blood drips onto the puddle of George's blood causing it to crystalize.
"I can't do it, I can't." Saya Said crying as George reaches for her hand as She grabs her father's hand as they look at each other.
"Saya, I'm still your father isn't that right Sweetheart?" George asked "Yes" Saya replies and nods as George looks at Kai and Riku. "Kai don't cry, you're the man of the family, take good care of your brother and sister" George said, "I will" Kai Replied as he turns around trying to wipe his tears away.
"Riku I see You and Kai became Makai knights like Jack and Memori, I wish I could've been there to see you become one,But remember Riku, you're a knight like Jack now. So make Your family proud" George said as he looks at Memori and Amber.
"And You two love birds better stay out of trouble" George said As Amber and Memori try to laugh while holding their tears back but Amber softly cries and George looks at Jack.
"And Jack Once you find Koran, Make sure he gets What's coming to him." George Said as Jack nods before George's back at Saya. "Saya wherever your life takes you, always follow your heart, you must learn to accept your past. And When you feel like giving up remember Nan-Kuru-NaI-Sah, Live for Today but look Forward to tomorrow and Don't forget to smile" George Said and Nods at Jack telling him he's ready.
As Jack puts the garoken in the reverse grip position as Kai, Riku and Saya put their hands on Jack's hand while he is holding the garoken letting him know to end George's pain together as they all push the garoken into George's Chest causing him to die and be free of the pain of being half Horror and half chiropteran as he dies with a smile on his face, letting them that he died with his humanity intact before his body crystallized and shatters, Leaving behind Red Soul Metal this time in an ingot instead of 1 ore. as Black smoke is seen being absorbed into the blade of the Garoken as a sign that the Horror half has been sealed.
"Let's Get Back to the Ship and Plan our Next attack." Jack Said as He, Kai and Riku pick up the ingots of red soul metal while Hagi takes what remains of George's Body as they go back to the Ship.
(Back at the Ship)
When they Arrived back at the Ship they See David and Julia waiting for them wondering where George is as The look on their Faces tell David and Julia that they didn't get to George in time and save him like they planned as they See what Remains of George's body.
"All of That Planning, Wasted and We couldn't save him" David Said Hitting a wall While Julia and Riku are Seen tending to everyone's injuries.
"Not All is lost though" Amber Said pulling her Madou brush and a Map pinpointing the Location of Koran And Karl as the map shows green flames that are leading to some Ruins telling that Koran, Karl and the rest of their Chiropteran army are there.
"So We now know their next location, But First I must go the Watchdog and see about these ingots of soul metal to see if they can be cleansed before being turned into a makai blade" Jack Said leaving while taking the red soul metal ingots with him.
(Watchdog tower)
As Jack looks for the watchdog but she is is Nowhere to be found until suddenly a different watchdog shows up, "Why are you shouting, I'm right here." The Watchdog said laying down on a bunch of cushions as she appears to be a pale young woman with a bored and lazy personality.
"You, Who are you?" Jack Asked wondering who the pale watchdog is as she points to the wolf statue. "You've come here for that and purify the red soul metal you have, right?" The Watchdog asked as Jack nods.
"Then get it over with and get to your trial of inner shadows." The Watchdog said taking a bite of a strawberry.
"The Trial? But I didn't slay 100 horrors, Who are you and how did I slay 100 horrors?" Jack asked. "The name is Garm and the 100th you've slain goes by the Name of "George Miyagusuku" he's was the 100th Horror and yes That hybrid counted as a horror " Garm said as a Distraught Jack Remembers last night as A tear runs down his cheek reminding him of his past but collects himself and puts the ingots on the Ground near Garm as she casts a madou spell turning the Soul metal Ingots into Training makai blades as Jack picks one of them and inserts it into the wolf statue as It was cleansed of evil Ki but then a red crystal dropped out the wolf statue's mouth and near Jack's foot as He Points Zaruba as it to see what it is.
"I Sense no evil ki coming from it, but the red soul metal that was purified feels so powerful now." Zaruba said as Jack picked the crystal up and looks at the red soul metal as he thought of something.
"You're thinking about Teaching Saya on how to wield Soul metal aren't you?" Zaruba asked as Jack nods putting the Garoken in the wolf statue's mouth as a A sealed horror dagger lands near Jack's foot this time dodging it as it's blade nearly hit his foot.
"Should I take this as a sign, That I'm going to die?" Jack thought in his mind as he looks down at the Dagger and walks out of the tower and getting back to the others.
(The Ship)
Back at the Ship we see Riku sitting down and looking at the water thinking about the words George said to him before he died Until the sound of footsteps were heard as He turns his head and sees Amber Carrying a weapon case as She looks at Riku and kept on going as she puts her index finger on her lips telling him to stay quiet about it for now.
"Wonder What she's Doing with that?" Riku asked himself turning his head back to continue looking at the ocean but hears Jack talking To Saya as he sees Him giving her a trainee makai blade as she takes it only to fall to the ground with it as Soul metal is known for being heavy and responds to the wielder based on their strength and thoughts in other words a trained body and a strong will.
"Saya!" Said Riku running to Saya's Side and helping her up as Saya lifts the trainee Makai blade as her eyes glow red and wielding it with ease now, Surprising Jack and Riku for it only took Kai and Riku a few days and several hours of training for them to master soul metal but then as her eyes return to normal it became heavy again.
"We've got a long day ahead of us." Jack said Helping Her back up on her feet, As he decides to train her by teaching her how to wield soul metal without using her chiropteran mode first.
"I see you can lift it with no problem while your powers are active but you must be able to wield it without your chiropteran powers first Saya" Said Jack while passing a Bokken to Saya as she takes the wooden sword from Jack while Hagi arrives and watches along with Riku as Saya grips her weapon while Jack gets into a fighting stance with another Bokken.
"Give everything you've got Saya and don't hold back." Said Jack putting the edge tip of the bokken against his forearm making a battle stance like another golden knight from a long time ago as Saya charges at him with everything she's got but Jack counters and deadlocks with her.
"Saya, You must give it all you got, which means every strike must count, and everytime there's opening chance you must take it," Jack said as Saya punches him knocking him back a bit making his lip bleed a little.
"You're learning, Good but you still got a long way to go." Jack said wiping the blood off his lip and charging at Saya and was about to strike her until, WHACK!, Jack is blocked by Hagi as his Bokken is broken after it made contact against Hagi's Cello case
."Hagi he was just training me so I can Be able to wield Soul metal and fight the hybrids." Saya Said Telling Hagi that it's only Training as Jack Looks at the broken Bokken in his hands and looks for the broken part of it as it lands right next to Riku Then Amber walks up while she's wielding a Blue Makai Blade with ease as Everyone looks at her and wondering how she's able to hold a makai blade.
"Amber? Is there something you're not telling us?" Jack Asked As Amber kept on walking ignoring everyone as they kept looking at her.
"Believe it or not Jack, She's Now the first Female to inherit the Armor of Thunder Knight Baron, So now she's Both a Makai Priest and A Makai knight." Zaruba said As Everyone except for Hagi went wide-eyed. (You weren't Expecting that uh EZ RIder? if you're reading this)
"Wh-What, How, When? I have so many questions and how long was this going on for? " Jack asked as Zaruba Chuckled, "about 2 weeks before she arrived in okinawa, I thought you knew by the Smell of Soul metal on her?" Zaruba Said while chuckling,
"I Can't smell soul metal like you because I'm not a talking piece of jewelry." Jack said in an annoyed tone as Riku and Saya laughed.
(2 weeks before the events in Okinawa)
We see Amber training with a Makai blade under her father's supervision and is enduring harsh training from a former user of the Baron armor who is teaching Amber as they Train and train and train from Dusk until Dawn and Then the Former Baron kept going forth with quick and heavy strikes switching back and forth and then Amber pulls out her Madou brush as She blocks an attack with a makai blade in one hand and attacks with her madou brush in the other striking the former baron and sending him back.
"Amber enough" Amber's Father said as the former Baron stands and bows down to her, and Presents her with his Makai blade the Raimeiken as Amber grabs it and wields it.
"The Armor has deemed you worthy but you must continue to train before you can use it but when to use the armor is up to you to decide." Amber's father said as the former Baron rises and walks away with a smile on his face as Amber smiles knowing that she'll one day find the Horror that Ended her father's role as a Makai knight a Role that she must take over for her father as a knight and a priest.
(the ship, Present day)
As we see Saya, Jack, And Memori getting ready to head out to the Vietnam War Ruins only to be interrupted by a noise in Jack's quarters as he is seen cleaning the Garoken then the Blonde Woman's voice From Jack's dream is heard.
"I see you haven't Change Your Ways, That's Good but You should focus more Le-" The Voice said as Jack turns before the Voice of the blonde woman could finish her sentence as it had stopped. Making Jack have Doubts about him being Worthy of Being Garo after what Koran did to his Master as the Voice in his Head gets louder and louder every time someone he cares about Dies as it starts to become doubt but Collects himself and Heads out.
(24 Hours later, Night time)
We see Saya, Hagi, Jack, Amber, and Memori along with David, Julia and Lewis Traveling to the Vietnam war ruins as Saya stands in the boat at the front looking at the water as she turns around. "Diva?" Saya asked David as he lit a cigarette
"Yes, We must follow our Ultimate Objective, Diva." David said as Jack, Amber and Memori Listen in. Then Amber Asks "Then The Phantom?" Asked Amber.
"The Phantom is simply one who protects Diva, A Chevalier, Diva is Never Far from its Chevalier" said David as he smokes. "Or "her Chevalier." Which could be the Correct term David." Said Memori correcting David as David Continues.
"It's the Reason We tracked Delta 67 From Okinawa to Vietnam, It's Why we Pursued the Phantom, It was to Find Diva, You can Think of it as the Reason that Red shield Exists." Said David.
"Then if We Find Diva?" Saya Asked as Jack and the others wonder at that question as well. "It'll all be over" David replied.
"I see, This is going to be the end of it. This" Saya said as the sound of a small boat approaches them with four people on board.
(on board the boat)
As we See a Woman holding a compass with a red crystal on it as she introduces herself.
"I'm Clara" the woman introduces herself. "That's McCoy" Clara said as the man in the red bandana shows a bullet with a red crystal in it.
"Spencer" Clara said as Spencer shows a bullet with a red crystal also.
"Rodgers" Said Clara as Rodgers shows a bullet with a red crystal as well.
"Four?" Davd asked
"I heard we were coming to wipe out the Chiropterans, I only brought that would be useful, it is true that this Container isn't a decoy?" Clara asked as David hands her some photos.
"Its Shape, Color, and Number, All Match that of the Container Confirmed as Diva's 30 years ago." David said talking to Clara.
"30 years ago?" Memori asked. "Long story...they'll tell you Another time," Jack replied as David continued to talk.
"It's likely that since then, the air-conditioner and Support-frame were added to keep Diva Healthy. There's no way to Tell if it's the real thing until we break it open and Look." Said David as Clara gives the photos gave to him.
"And when do we attack?" Jack asked as Clara looked at him wondering who he is and why he's involved in this. "Who are these people" Clara asked.
"This is Jack, those Two over there are Amber and Memori they'll be helping us." David replied
"Then what's the plan for when we get there?" Clara asked as she agrees with Jack as David pulls out a map and Clara pulls out a flashlight and shined it on the map.
"At 0400 we make Landfall two kilometers Downstream from the plantation and head for the target point." David said pointing to the location on the map.
"So You're planning on going through the jungle?" Jack Asked "That's right, The target Building is on a Rubber plantation we'll reach after going through the Jungle, The Only way to get to the Place where the Container is Located is to head through this building." David Replied
"And if the Chiropterans Appear?" Clara asked
"Saya" David Called, "Yes?" Saya replied. "You can do it right?" David asked again "I will." Saya Replied as She determined to end this once and for all after what they did to George.
"Was it wise To Leave Kai and Riku with Jin for this mission?" Zaruba asks As Jack Nods to his Question.
"We need all the Help that we can get, After reading the newspaper yesterday morning about Kids going missing, I suspect Delta 67 is behind it and could be bringing them here to these Ruins, Which is Why we need three Teams, Saya and Hagi will be going with them to go after Diva, You, Amber and Memori will take care of the Horrors and Jin, Kai and Riku will find the missing children." David Said as Everyone nods in agreement.
(Some sort of mansion)
As Karl is seen by a couple of containers as it seems that there something or someone inside there. We see Van looking down at the containers as A Blonde man walks towards him along with Koran.
"Do you realize what you've done Koran?" Van Asked while Koran Smiled and pointed the Kokuenken at Van's throat as it felt like he was going to kill Van but Couldn't because he has other plans as he withdrew his sword from Van's neck as he looks to Solomon.
"You're going to be useful and you're going to help me Kill The Golden Knight." Koran said as Solomon is unphased by Koran's intimidation as he begins to walk off.
"If you want to know about that Samurai-man I suggest you stay and do as I say Solomon." Koran said only for Solomon to make some kind of a Blade out of one of his hands as He Charges at Koran only to be quickly defeated by him While Van watches Solomon lose as he is flown through a wall.
"I-Impossible, Solomon Lost to a human? And to Koran no less, I guess we have no choice but to move on with the next phase of the plan." Van thought to himself and watches Koran leave the premises while Solomon is left in the debris as Van Fears for his life.
"Oh and Van Make sure the Children are turned by Morning and have them listen to "The Song."
Because I need my part of the plan to work." Said Koran walking away while Van quivers in fear as he signals his men to accelerate the process of his part of the plan.
(underground cells)
Riku is seen strapped down to a bed in a cell as he struggles to get free but it's no use, while in another cell across from his, A Girl named Mui who only has one leg as she and Riku met Hours before being captured by Delta 67. "I think they are going to sell us." Mui said with a scared voice.
"Don't worry, Once my friends get here, we'll Protect you, after all I'm A knight." Riku said confidently as he remembers his father's word to him before his death.
Then the sounds of footsteps approaching Mui lays on the bed in her cell as The cell door opens on Riku's Side as it Reveals to be Kai.
"Yo." Kai greets his little brother as he Cuts Riku Free. while Jin Opens the other doors and frees the other children before Opening Mui's cell.
"She'll have to be carried out of here" Riku said pointing to Mui's Missing leg as Kai walks into her cell and started lifting and Carrying her.
"I'll carry her but you two have to fight if we Run into any Chiropteran or Horrors." said Kai as Jin and Riku nod as they go to find a way out while leading the Missing children to safety.
(With the Others, Jungle)
While The others go through to get to their target they stopped moving as the sound of the birds have stopped, Making them Prepared to defend themselves. "The Bird noises?" Saya asked herself As Red mist appears around Saya as she looks at everyone else as she starts to see visions but looks straight ahead.
"Hey, You okay Saya?" Memori asked as he draws his makai blade while Jack and Amber drew theirs.
"A song, I hear a song." Saya said as she's the only one who hears it, "What Song?" Jack Asked as he looks at Hagi gripping his hand as if it's like he's trying to control himself.
"Amber Use Uruba and contact Jin because Splitting up into Different team might have been a bad idea" Memori said as he Suggests it while Amber Agrees by Nodding.
(Container)
Van is Seen putting a Card in a card scanner to open the Container but it denied him entry. "Even my Card won't open it?" Van Asks as he Tries to enter a code but only to be stopped by Karl as he enters his card and it granted him access as he opens the container doors as Van is Surprised from he's seeing inside. "What The Hell is this?" Van asked.
"The Source of Delta 67." Solomon Relied as Van looks at him. "Diva seems to be having a Wonderful Dream." Solomon Continued as Karl Smiles
Then the sound of a Children's Choir is heard as Children in red cloaks start running out singing as Two men try recapturing them.
"What are you doing? Who said that You could release the mice?" Van Asked as Koran shows up and orders them to find Saya and the Other Makai knights and attack them by using hand gestures as he knows that they're coming for him as the Children began running to the jungle to find them.
(Jungle)
Soon as The Others get close to the target the children surround them as they stand there and Look at the Knights before approaching them, as One child appears behind McCoy and A voice is heard
"Welcome." As Karl's voice is heard as Everyone looks at him "I'm so Happy to see you again. Saya." Said Karl.
"Phantom, No, Karl!" Saya Said as Hagi and Jack stood in front of her, shielding her incase of an attack from karl.
"To cross swords with your friends like this… It's just like that Day Isn't it?" Karl Asked as the children stand there waiting for a signal to attack. "No" Saya replied as she is remembering her past. "It's not quite what I had in mind but it will do." Said Karl
"That's Enough Karl, Tell us Where Koran is and I promise that we'll make your death very quick." Jack Said as he had enough of his talk as he remembers Min's Death at the school when Karl turned himself into a Chiropteran Horror hybrid.
"Getting impatient are we? Well then Let's Put on another Performance… Of our Own Personal Vietnam War!" Karl Said as Saya screamed "Stop it!" wanting him to stop as she grabs her head but then a Child began to rush towards Saya very fast But Not As fast as Hagi threw one of his daggers at them as it stabs them in the chest.
"Hey, It's Just a Kid-" Clara said before she could finish her sentence as the dagger pops out of the child's chest as the child's wound heals revealing to be a chiropteran as the small chiropteran sheds its skin like a snake as well as the rest children reveal to be chiropterans.
"Such heartless monsters." Zaruba said as Jack Draws the garoken and the other makai knights drew their blades as well. As the Chiropterans start attacking Red shield start heading to the building as they shoot at the small chiropterans while the Knights take of them down as they know that there's no hope for the children that were turned anymore..
"We'll Catch up with you, Go!" Jack said summoning his armor becoming Garo while Amber cuts a Halo around herself as the Halo rises opening a portal as she is donned in Blue armor for She has become a slender and more feminine version of Baron the Thunder Knight as she attacks the Small chiropterans cutting a few of them down While Memori becomes Zen and cuts some down himself. As the three Makai Knights handle the rear, as Red shield reached the Building, David Struggles to get the Door open Clara, Spencer, McCoy and Rodgers provide Cover fire to keep the Chiropterans off their backs as they were being blasted away but kept getting back on their feet.
"Saya!" David Said As Saya is still holding her head as she's struggling with some sort of pain.
"We've come all this way.." Said David. "Get out of the Way" Spencer Said as he blasts the door hinges and kicks the door open, Signalling everyone to get in the building as Hagi carries Saya inside "The Container is Out Back, I'm going on Ahead!" David said.
"Okay!" Rodgers said while he and McCoy give them covering fire.
"Let's go." McCoy said about to turn around but then he gets attacked by one of the small Chiropterans attacking his face as Rodgers Hesitates to fire but instead grabs his pistol and shoots the chiropteran in its face getting him off of McCoy only to see him dead and his body was now devoid of Blood then The Small chiropteran regenerates and kills Rodgers as the scene goes black.
(Hallway)
The Rest of Red shield are running through the hall of the building only to be ambushed by more Chiropterans as they crash through the windows while Clara Shoots at Them sending them away. As The Coast is clear giving them a moment to breathe Saya is Seen Leaning against the Wall breathing heavy while holding her Sword Only For Clara to Grab Her.
"Why won't You fight?" Clara asked as Saya Has her eyes closed "You're All We've Got!" Clara Said as Saya Opens her eyes. "I can't… The Song." Saya Said,
"Song?" Clara asked. "Clara, Above You!" Spencer Said as More Chiropterans show up as She Fires her gun at them while Spencer fires his Shotgun at the other as Saya is on the ground A Red Cloaked Child is Standing in front of her "Saya!" David Called to her As Saya turns to look at David.
"What are you doing?" David Asked as a Chiropteran Attacks him as Saya adverts her eyes looking at the child as the Child lifts their head revealing to have blood red eyes and smiles.
"No." Saya Said while getting back a little as the child turns into a chiropteran and approaches Saya. "Kill it, KILL IT!, Saya Fight!" David Said while Struggling to get the chiropteran off of him as Saya looks at the Small Chiropteran
"I can't." Saya Said as she can't bring herself to kill it but Then Hagi came and Struck the chiropteran as the deadly blow knocked its head off..literally. As Blood gushes out from its neck where its head was As Saya Remembers more of her past as Visions kept showing up in her head.
But Then A green flame is seen burning the Chiropterans into piles of ashes as Garo Baron and Zen Emerge from the Flame as Clara And Spencer aimed their guns at them
"Easy there, It's us!" Zen said as he disengages his armor reverting back to Memori as Baron and Garo do the same reverting back to Amber and Jack.
"What the hell are you three?" Clara asked as she and Spencer lower their weapons. "We're Makai Knights and we're on your side remember?" Jack exclaimed,
"You're Lucky you didn't run into any horrors or the five of you would've gotten devoured by them or These Tiny Chiropterans." Amber Said sheathing the Raimeiken and brings out a Madou Brush and uses a spell to Help locate the container as a small Green sphere of makai energy is seen guiding them them to the container but leads them to a wide corridor as Hagi sets Saya Down so she can rest a bit but then More Chiropterans show up and attack everyone as Saya stares at a painting at the wall while lying on the floor and everyone fights the Chiropterans while she continues to hear a woman singing.
(Somewhere in Saya's Mind)
As Saya Is Somewhere else surrounded by water as She wonders where she is as she walks to find the source of the person who is singing the song only to find a Tower as she stares at the tower a blue rose falls in the water but then she see Reflections of George, Kai and RIku in the water.
"Dad?, Kai?, Riku?" Saya asked herself seeing her reflection in the water like a mirror as her reflection in the water began to crack as the sky turned red and Visions from her past began to surface while seeing the memories of her past as she sees What happens in the old Vietnam war as they became so intense for her, she snaps as her chiropteran mode is activated by her memories of the past.
(Reality/ Corridor)
As Saya snaps back into reality only to Attack everyone as she sees everyone as an enemy as her mind is now clouded by her troubled memories. Spencer points his gun at Saya only to be Cutdown by her As Karl Laughs while hanging from A chandelier, delighted at What Saya just did.
"Splendid! This Is the Perfect Stage!" Said Karl donning his mask while David points his gun at Karl and shoots only for him to Dodge the bullet by swiftly moving from the Chandelier, Surprising David as Saya Was about cut him down but then Hagi pushes David out of the way and Punches her in the stomach making her stop her attack.
"Saya, Wake up" Said Haji as Saya pushes him to the ground as she bites somewhere near his neck. As Hagi winches a little while She's biting him. As David looks on but Then Kai Shows up after seeing what has occurred as he looks at the carnage that Saya has caused.
"Kai What are You doing here?" Memori asked As Jack Helps Amber Up. "You're supposed to be With Jin and Riku" Amber Said as she gets back on her feet After Jack helped her up. "Saya" Kai said as Jack Looks and sees What she's doing.
"Yes! Saya" Karl said as Saya sets her sights on Karl. "At last I can, once again, Meet The Saya from That Time." Karl said with glee. "Now Come here… Dance… This Time with me!" Karl said giving a hand gesture as Saya gets off of Hagi and heads towards Karl.
"Saya." Hagi said looking at Saya. "Oh No!" Hagi said as She seems to go berserk because of her body movement.
"Yes.. Let's Dance." Karl Said to Saya as she Charges at Him screaming. "SAYA!" Kai Yelled then all of a sudden Saya Stopped. "What has Happened to you? What are you doing, Saya? Saya!" Kai Asked as Saya looks at the Titleless makai Knight as her eyes change for his voice has reached her breaking her out of the trance.
"Kai?" Saya Asked as She walk towards her brother, Shocking Kai as he trips over something after taking a step backwards. "What!?" Karl exclaimed as Saya Looks at her hand and sword seeing blood on her clothes and sword before dropping her weapon and dropping to the ground herself.
"I'll Check on Clara." Said Amber going to Clara's Side as Jack helps Hagi up before going to Saya. as Kai is still on the ground looking at his sister. "Why? What the Hell have you done!?" Karl asked as Kai looks at him "What Have you done to Saya?" Karl Asked while he lunges toward Kai and was about to strike but then a voice was heard.
"Karl… Control yourself." revealing to be solomon's voice as Karl stopped only for Kai to be pushed out of the Way by Clara as She shoots Karl, Making him retreat and crash through one of the windows. As The Coast is clear for the moment Clara clenches her chest for she was in pain.
"Clara!" Saya Said as she moves toward to Clara and holds her in her arms. "Ms Clara, Hang in there! Ms. Clara!" Saya Said as Clara Realized that Saya isn't berserking she gasps softly before speaking. "Saya You're… You're back to your old self." Clara said bleeding from her wound. "Did… I do This?" Saya Asked as she felt for what she's done.
"If you had that Kind of power, I'd have Rather you'd used it earlier." Clara said as she winces in pain. "Ms. Clara" Saya said. "Quickly, the Container." Clara looking at David. "Understood." David Responded.
"They're the kind of People Who'd Do this to Children, KIll them all for me, Only You… Can Protect.. Can Protect our tomorrow." Clara Said as she grows weak.
Thinking back to what George Said Saya saw a vision of her father giving her and the others some words of wisdom before dying.
"Only you can do it." Clara said as The others move on from Clara as Amber, Jack and Memori had sad looks on their faces as they know her intentions are without having her say much and know that they must leave a new friend behind especially that she's sacrificing herself just so the others can reach their goal.
"Hey." Clara said as the makai knights look at her. "Don't be so sad I know what I've signed up for now go and KIck their asses for me." Clara said with a smile as They all Nod and head towards the area where the container is.
(5 minutes later)
As the Others head towards outside to get to the container. As More Chiropterans gather in the Corridor, then Clara is seen pulling out a grenade "It's Time… For this Old Lady… To Go to Heaven" Clara said pulling the pin with her teeth and dropping the grenade as it rolls on the floor while Clara smiles as a chiropteran lunges towards her as the grenade explodes killing her and taking as many chiropterans with her. As the Explosion blasts through the windows Alerting everyone outside Including Koran as he smirks while grasping the Kokuenken.
As Red shield and the makai knights minus Kai reached their destination only to be greeted by Koran while they see Van, Solomon and Karl behind him as Well as the containers connected to cables some helicopters as Saya and Jack remember seeing Solomon at the Ball before it all went to hell with the chiropterans attacking there.
"I see My Little Brother has come to see me" Koran said pointing his blade at Jack as he walked towards him.
"I'm going to make you pay for what you did to George and for what you did to those kids back there!" Jack said Drawing the garoken As The others head towards the other three as Van looks at Saya while heading to one of the choppers. "Don't tell me that she's the Samurai man." Van said as he boards the helicopter as Solomon was about to board he stops for a brief moment.
"Karl, Assist Koran and Make sure he lives because I want to see what his Grand plan is and do whatever you want to the others but keep Saya and The Golden knight alive even if you must interfere in his fight." Solomon said as he boards while Karl looks at him.
"Understood." Said Karl heading towards Saya as her Eyes Glow red while she walked towards him as well ready to kill.
As Karl Transforms into his Chiropteran Horror form as Amber and Memori were about to summon their armors only to be stopped by Saya as she walks past them to fight Karl herself.
"What is she doing?" Memori asked as Amber walks along with her because Karl is not only a chiropteran but also a horror so she decided to help her as Memori watches on. "I'll never understand her" Said Memori walking along with her to help Saya.
(Jack and Koran)
Jack and Koran are seen clashing swords with each other
"I'll tell you that this will be different than last time little brother!" Koran Said running towards Jack as Jack does the same and Deadlocks with Koran as both makai knights looked at each other in the eye.
"What you did to George, and to those kids, Is Unforgivable You're not A Makai Knight, You're nothing but a power hungry monster who is Worse than a Horror!" Jack said While deadlocking with Koran before Koran headbutts Jack knocking him away as he laughs while grabbing his mado necklace
"Yes but he was just the appetizer and so were those kids but they weren't the ones that I need for the ritual to bring "HIM" Back!" Koran said Blowing into the necklace and swinging it in the air Summoning his armor becoming KIba the Dark knight.
"I don't plan on dying here but if I am, I'm taking you with me, Koran!" Jack said Summoning his Armor becoming Garo as the sound of a wolf snarling in the distance is heard. "There is no Escape for you this Time Koran." Garo said Running towards Kiba and started clashing with him.
Garo Swung the garoken only to be countered by KIba as he Kicks him, making Garo stagger a bit before Kiba tackles him into the wall of the building and started beating Garo Mercilessly with his fist as Garo endures one blow after another But then he grabs Kiba's fist and kicks him away so he can recover and continue to fight as he gets out of the wall.
"When did you get so strong little brother?" Kiba asked getting back on his feet and attacks Garo again only this time Garo counters him Parrying and Cuts his Cape off Angering KIba making him swing the kokuenken very wildly in hopes to hit Garo but Dodges every one of his sword swings and other attacks but then small Chiropterans jump in and start attacking Garo.
"What the?" Garo asked himself while fighting off the small chiropterans but then KIba comes in for a hit, striking him off balance as the small chiropterans scream in pain from touching the soul metal of Garo's armor but when Kiba is about to deliver the final blow he's suddenly Attacked by Kai in his hagane armor. "That was for my Father" Said Kai as he focuses on the chiropterans attacking Garo.
"Kai!" Garo Said as Kai slashes the small chiropterans off of him and sets his Sights on Kiba.
"I see Someone wants revenge for what happened to Daddy." Said Kiba Taunting Kai as Kai ran towards him and Clashing swords with him as Garo Watches on. "Damn It Kai!" Garo said getting up and ran towards Kai to help him fight Kiba because Kai is still a rookie makai knight.
"You Put my Dad in the Hospital, Took him away and then you turned him into some kind of Monster, I'LL KILL YOU KORAN!" Kai said fighting Kiba as the Bronze hagane knight kept swinging his Sword at him but gets Knocked down by the Dark knight as Kiba walks towards Kai.
"Your Father Chose To Save the Golden Knight by giving himself up inorder to spare his life and You never wondered why?" Kiba asked as he raises the Kokuenken getting ready to kill The Bronze knight but is knocked back By Garo as He looks at the golden knight.
"It's because George treated me like Family for helping him, Something That YOU Failed to understand Koran!" Garo said Helping Kai up from the ground as the Makai knights look at Kiba while Kiba looks back at them.
"Family? FAMILY!?" Kiba asked as he lights kokuenken activating his blazing armament. "You're the one who doesn't know and will never understand about Family since You're the one that Inherited a Bloodline that isn't from your own Family!" Kiba Said Enraged and Running towards Garo and Kai.
(Saya, Hagi and other makai Knights)
We now see Saya, Hagi, Baron, and Zen Fighting Karl as He turns his left arm into a Blade like weapon and attacks Saya only for her to block his attack as she deadlocks with him then Baron and Zen attack him from the right but he blocks their attack with his prosthetic arm then Hagi throws Daggers into his body but have no effect on him due to his Horror side as He knocks the Two Makai Knights Back while Saya Charges in on him as she swings with an overhead strike but Karl blocks it deadlocking with her once again.
"Splendid!" Karl said as he Kicks Saya away from knocking her to the ground.
"Hey AssButt!" Said Zen as he appears and Attacks Karl from behind only to be knockback by him as Baron uses her Blazing armament on Karl as the blue flames burn him before he can grab her as the burning and pain distracts him while giving Saya a chance to strike him while she charges at him as she cuts one of his legs, Karl roars in pain as Saya's blood can still harm him causing his leg to crystalize as he jumps onto the building and flees inside forcing Saya to follow him inside as she gives chase.
(inside mansion)
While inside she loses track of him but hears a roar as Karl grabs an axe amputates his crystallizing leg off and escapes through a window leaving a trail of horror blood behind but his wounds will heal due to his Chiropteran half. As Saya arrives she's sees his dismembered leg as it was crystalized but Karl has already escaped as Saya follows the trail of horror blood and finds the broken window realizing she's too late.
"KARL!" Saya yelled at the top of her lungs as Jin, Riku along with Mui and what's left of the other kids appear as Saya looked at them.
(back outside)
Garo and Kai are still fighting Kiba as the three clash swords as Kai kept striking his makai blade against Kiba's Kokuenken over and over and over and over again bringing him to one knee as Kiba laughs.
"Keep going Kid give me all you got!" Kiba said Laughing as he counters by punching him, as the blow knocks him away but then Garo jumps over and raising his sword and brings it down on Kiba, Slashing his face.
Then Kiba Screams in pain as the kiba armor disengages as Koran's hood falls down revealing Koran's Face for he has Black hair with a braided ponytail and Green eyes as he looks at him with a slash going from Northwest to southeast on his face as he bleeds and his face is now scarred, Angered he points his finger at Garo and Kai as they disengage their armors and Look at him.
"You will Pay, Both You and Your Little "Family", Especially that Whore, You may have won This battle but You Cannot Stop for what's coming, For I have what I need, I'll let you live for now But when the ritual is done "He" will return and "He" Will Aid me in your Demise "Jack", So Long!" Koran said Running into the jungle and Disappearing out of sight as An explosion is heard sending a helicopter blade towards Jack and Kai as the blade gets near them until Jack deflects it with the garoken making it land at the back porch of the building barely missing Jin, Saya, Riku and the others by several feet.
"HEY WATCH IT GOLDEN KNIGHT, WE GOT KIDS OVER HERE!" Jin yelled as Jack and Kai look at the other and find all of them okay as Memori and Amber arrive helping David walk as he was hurt while trying to get the container but the Helicopter he was trying to hijack was blown up while airborne. Jack Walked to where Koran was as he noticed Koran dropped something while he ran into the jungle. to find that it was a Keycard he dropped and on it it Says "Cinq Fleches" as Jack picked it up while looking at it he goes back to everyone to regroup with them then Jin approaches Jack Giving him an empty blood bag that says "Delta 67" on it.
"So Delta 67 isn't an Organization, it's a substance, So that Cinq Fleches is our True Enemy and Target." Jin said to Jack while David overhears them and limps over to Jack as He Hands David the keycard as Saya and Hagi look at Jack and the other Makai knights as Kai walks to Riku and Mui.
"Did they Inject you with anything like from a blood bag, Riku?" Kai asked as Riku shook his head while carrying Mui but she had a sad look on her face.
"Mui What's wrong?" Riku Asked as Mui looked at him as tears began to stream down her face.
"They injected us with that stuff earlier before they brought Riku." said Mui as she started to cry while Jack and David approached. "I'll call it in." David said contacting Julia and Lewis as he felt like that something needs to be done.
(Several minutes later)
We See Mui and the other being put in cages as Soldiers are seen with David while The Makai Knights Look on as Riku is seen talking with Mui as He say his goodbyes to her,
"This is too Excessive, They're just kids, they shouldn't be treated like animals!" Jin Said While David walk towards the Knights and looks at Jack. "You Four Should get Going, me and David are going to talk for a bit" Jack Said as the rest but Jin leave.
"Riku's Clean, we haven't found puncture wounds on him so he wasn't injected with delta 67." David said as Jin was about to grab him by the collar because of him putting the kids in cages but is stopped by Jack. "Why put the kids in cages?" Jack asked
"You saw what happened back in the jungle, Because of that we can't risk it until we find a way of changing them back for good." David said as Jack backs off while Jin get close to David.
"If you hurt those kids or do Anything to Mui That Will Make Riku Sad, You will feel my Wrath." Jin said walking towards Kai and Riku.
Jack is seen Looking at the Jungle to where Koran ran off to, he began thinking about what Koran said and what he meant by "HIM" but then Saya and Hagi walk by to check on him. "Jack it's time to go back home, Back to Okinawa." Saya said as Hagi notices a red envelope in his left hand.
"Aren't you going to light it and see what your orders are?" Hagi Asked as Jack tears it to shreds and throws it against the wind as it blows the pieces away.
"He's waiting there for me, I know it." Jack said as Saya wondered who he's talking about as Jack walks back to the boat.
(the boat)
As everyone on the boat is heading back to Okinawa Jack is seen with a discouraged Look on his face thinking about the person who is waiting for him back in Okinawa as Everyone looked at him while he thinks, as Riku Looked towards Saya. "Saya?" Riku asked as Saya looked at him.
"How could something so horrible have happened, Why must You fight, Saya?" Riku Asked
"So No one Like Mui would have to go through like your Father did, and like us Makai knights, she fights as One Who protects. when we get back to Okinawa and Omoro, I gotta deal with something first and then Deal with Ouga, my Father." Jack Said as Amber, Jin and Memori went Wide eyed when they heard the makai knight named "Ouga" and added to their shock is that Ouga is Jack's father.
"I thought Zaruba told you three that Ouga was coming?" Jack asked as the three makai knights grabbed him and start pulling his face as a response as Saya, Kai, and Riku looked confused as they looked at each other before looking back at the makai knights. "I Didn't Know that you still had Family, What's your Father Like?" Saya asked as Jack pushes the other off to the side with his left.
"You'll know when you see him." Jack replied as He sound that he is not looking forward to seeing his Father after all these years.
(Scene Change, Somewhere with Cinq Fleches)
"We nearly had them, and You've Failed. Koran not only Karl lost not one but two of his limbs and you've lost against the golden knight, how do you explain yourself?" Van asked as Koran ignores him as he looks at his now scarred face in a mirror as he begins laughing while Karl is getting his leg replaced as Van began to sweat for he felt scared hearing the laugh coming from Koran as he starts slowly back away.
"Watch your Tongue Van, In a month's time, the Moon will be full and the fog will lift and then I can bring The one that was defeated by Garo a long time ago from a different world to our world Here, oh and Van if you try to cross me again. I'll Make sure that you get fed to Karl." Koran said Walking off as he toss some dog tags on the floor near Van as Van felt a shiver go down his spine while he looks at Karl.
"I see so that's his plan all along but what does it have to do with Diva?" Solomon said as he walked out of the shadows while Van is Beginning to get more and more scared of Koran each day as Solomon is seen standing next to Karl.
"You know Amshel has been contacted and he'll be on his way in the next few days and he wants to know about Saya and this Golden knight. But importantly He wants to know more about your new power." Solomon said walking away while Karl began to think about what he's going to do when Amshel arrives.
(Somewhere in Okinawa)
We see a middle aged man with a grey hair in a ponytail with a grey goatee and brown eyes and was carrying a white sword and wearing a Grey duster walking through town trying to look for Omoro as he searched for hours and hours until he found it, As the Man lifts his left arm and reveals wearing on his hand a Madou ring that looked exactly like Zaruba except it's colored completely Gold.
"Saruba, is this the Place where My Son is?" The man asked as his madou began to speak.
"Yes, Reed, he was here but he should be returning soon." Saruba said as his voice was more gruff than Zaruba's.
"Good, then I've found you Son, and once you return, it will be time to come home.." Reed Said in a tone that he means business and not to be trifled with.
To be Continued…
(Sorry this chapter took so long but it's Because of Real Life Stuff getting in the way and I have been raising a kitten for 8 weeks now and I wanted this Chapter to have no spacing issues and I wanted it to be perfect. If you like this Chapter leave a review and I'm going to try to get the next chapter done by january or march at the latest because those are my goals. I hope this REALLY LONG chapter entertains you and have a wonderful day and night)
