A string of red light flew from the magic circle flew away from the magic circle and without thinking, Kazuma ran after it, either it would lead him to another magic circle or the person that had set the thing up.

As he entered the school grounds Kazuma noticed that something was off, he could feel the pull of something tugging at his very being, it was stronger than before like if the energy itself sensed that he was after it and it was trying to drain as much power from him as possible.

The sound of metal hitting metal could be heard, how hadn't he heard it before Kazuma didn't know, immediately after the sound of a shockwave as powerful enemies fought one another.

Kazuma stopped walking and for a moment he could swear that he stood in the Crimson Eye Demon village and that everyone there was fighting something.

The illusion vanished and Kazum could only look at his hands, that was a memory, the time when he, his friends and all of the village fought and killed one of the generals of the Demon King.

Whoever was fighting had stopped either they were staring each other down, someone had run away or one of them was dead either way, all of the sound around him had died away completely.

Kazuma began to walk towards the school doors when all of a sudden a red-headed teen wearing a brown shirt and pants ran out, the moment they both made eye contact the teen graved his arm and pulled Kazuma with him.

"Run!" the boy said to Kazuma fear written all over his face.

From what he was running away from Kazuma didn't know, he looked behind him as he ran with the teen, the guy still had Kazumas handheld with his own.

Suddenly Kazuma felt his Enemy Detection flare and he managed to just barely avoid a spear aimed straight at his chest.

In the realm of the Gods, Aqua smiled, every Heroic Spirit needed a Special skill something only they could use and she had given Kazuma something special.

Kazuma followed the red spear and found a man wearing a blue jumpsuit, that was more like tights, but it was padded like if it was some sort of armor.

The man had long blue hair, that was kept in a ponytail and red eyes that seemed to look right into Kazuma's soul.

Kazuma knew what this feeling was, it was the same one he had felt so many times before, the feeling of knowing that if he doesn't do something fast he was going to die.

"If only his friends were here, if only they could fight together one more time." Kazuma thought to himself as the man pulled back his spear and began to walk towards him and the teenager that had fallen on the floor when he had dodged the spear.

"Get away from him" A voice Kazuma thought he would never hear again.

"Hey, Kazuma. we're all waiting for you" A blond teenager said to him as he walked up to Kazuma and his attacker.

"Dust what are, how did you get here? Kazuma said to his acquaintance.

"Beets me" Dust answered Kazuma as he brought a gold spear into a combat position, Kazuma watched the guy he knew, loose all of his humor and what was left was a trained soldier.

Suddenly Dust's red jacket and brown pants began to glow, and they were replaced by a silver armor.

"You just tried to kill my best friend, don't expect any mercy from me." Dust said as he vanished, the man in blue hardened his eyes and vanished.

It only took a second, but in that one second, the two men clashed, red spear vs gold spear.

Dust aimed at his opponents head, only for the ma to dodge and aimed for his chest, however, Dust avoided the attack by giving on to the man's Spear and using it along with his own as a lever to be able to put some distance between them.

The man threw himself into the air and dust readied his strongest attack, the next move would end the fight, the man's spear glow red and Dusta own seemed to be bathed in gold light.

Dust thru his spear into the sky, while his opponent threw his own at him, the two attacks met in mid-air, both struggling to overcome the other and then nothing both spears returned to their owners.

Dust fell to his knees, his chest began to be painted red, whatever his opponent had done, had somehow pierced his chest, he was going to die here and soon his best friend would die again.

"Garrrr!" mA dragon screamed as it bath the street in its flames, Dust graved Kazuma and whoever the other guy was and jumped on the dragons back before flying away.

Kazuma watched as the blond teen vanished and slowly so did the dragon, its last act was landing onto of a building so that both Kazuma and the teen didn't fall to their deaths.
