At Yotsuga Forest, Peter, Rook, & Luzer were all on patrol, as they are days away from the final battle against the DNC and Anna Nishikinomiya. But as the battle was under preparations, they were in a roadblock; namely MIO's doing. Three vampire women, named Tohka, Shiina, and Sena, seduced and lured Peter & Rook, about to kill them. But then, Oboro Tsukimigusa appeared from the blue and rescued them. However, Oboro wasn't meant to be. He was, in fact, Luzer, Peter's pet crow ally, whose learnt a brand-new transformation spell. He can transform into any person he sees and know, before he can change back. But he has only three hours. And that's enough time to spare, as he plans to fight t hem, alone.

Episode VI – Chapter 2: The Curse of Kendra!
Darkveil's Mighty Secrets!

Luzer/Oboro continued to fight off Tohka and Shiina, as Sena approached Peter & Rook. Sena said, "Aw, too bad… Your buddy here is busy, but fighting them three-on-one is unfair."

Rook said, "What do you call this?"

Sena smiled, "We're what you call peacekeepers for our Mistress."

Peter said, "Your mistress… Her name is MIO?"

Sena laughed, "Really? Why yes. She has yet to awaken from her slumber, but it'll be nice to see all of you, as a whole. We were planning to kill you and take your blood, but it seems the traitor knew so much more."

Peter thought, looking at Luzer/Oboro, "That's no traitor. That's my crow dude!"

He landed a few punches to Tohka, but is swept down by Shiina, using her kunai. She threw it down towards him, but he rolled out of the way. Peter said to Sena, "Luckily, I know darkness, when I see one! You forget… I have the Darkness Shadow, and is the strongest of the Precious Stones!"

Sena smirked, "Please… You actually become Beelzebub, himself, with one of the Vile Trio along with it."

Peter growled, as he whispered, "I made a promise to Mizuki… Even if I had to be consumed by evil, I want to protect her."

He barked, "I'm not going down, without a fight!"

Rook said, "Bad girl. Perhaps you need a spanking. Evil succubus, it's your master I'll be thanking!"

They prepared to fight, as Luzer/Oboro slammed Tohka down to the ground. He yelled, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING, MASTER? This is my fight!"

Peter said, "Uh… Tell that to her!"

He sees Sena, as Luzer thought, "Shit! It's three of them! I can fight these two, but the other…"

Shiina slams Luzer down with a lethal kick to the head. Shiina then held up a black blade katana, and then said, "Oboro Tsukimigusa… You betrayed our Mistress…"

Luzer/Oboro said, "Are they stupid?"

Shiina slashed down at him, but dodged out of the way. His body emitted black shadows and glowed in a hellish aura. Luzer/Oboro said, "Really? You think that can best me? Don't be so pry. No matter what you throw at me, I can outlast the likes of you! I will protect the world and the future, for my master's sake!"

Tohka and Shiina stood beside each other, as Tohka said, "Is that so? You dare act for justice, for our mistress?"

Luzer/Oboro said, "Uh, no. He's my master."

Shiina growled, "He's right. This Oboro is an imposter…"

Luzer thought, with a smile, "Right as rain. But they can't guess."

Tohka said, "Sena, the guy in purple… Kill him! He's Oboro's master!"

Luzer cried, "WHAT?!"

Rook gasped, "Me?"

Peter growled, rushing towards Sena, "No, you don't! GANG! LET'S GO!"

Rook added, "Uh, it's just me."

Peter said, "SHUT UP AND FIGHT THESE DEMONS!"

They began to fight Sena. Peter delivered a huge barrage of shadowy punches, while Rook uses his cane sword to slash at her. But she dodged every single attack. Sena laughed, "Can't get me…"

Sena rushed towards them, and landed a deadly kick to Peter's stomach. He dropped to the ground, as Sena said, "Now, it's your turn."

She called to the others, "The big one is of no concern! Kill him and this traitor! Save the huge one for last…"

Peter groaned, trying to get up, "No… They're… too strong…"

Rook prepared, as he said, "You are not even human… But I digress of what your nature is. Besides that, I want to see what you have left, before it's over. You can allure me, all you want, but it makes no difference. Even I know vampirism activity, when I see it."

Luzer/Oboro asked, "Wait, what?"

Sena's mouth opened, grinning vampire fangs, as she hissed, "You're rather cunning and clever… We shall feast upon you, and make you one of us, Reginald Hadigan III."

Rook stepped back and said, "Just as I figured. You're a vampire."

Peter asked, "A what now?"

Rook slashed towards Sena, nearly nicking her. She launched a swift fist strike to him, but he deflected it with his cane. Rook tipped his hat, and swung his blade down, aiming towards her arms. Sena caught it with her hands, and Rook pulled the blade away, cutting her hands deeply. Sena roared in pain, in a demonic yell. Tohka lands a knee to Luzer/Oboro's gut, as Shiina slams the back of his head with an elbow. Tohka said, "Avenge Sena!"

Shiina rushed to Sena, and assist her to battle Rook. Sena's hands were lightly bleeding, as Rook said, "Vampire girls, so quaint and sexy. You can never tempt me, with your hex-ey. (Meh. They can't all be that good.)"

Tohka grabs Luzer by the neck and said, "Now, you little scumbag, let's see who you really are, once drain you dry."

Luzer was struggling, as he said, "Just try… But you cannot drain a Transylvanian crow from its evil boiling red essence…"

Tohka smirked, "OHhhh… Oboro Tsukimigusa's a vampire, too? Where are the teeth marks?"

She unleashed her fangs from her mouth, and hissed, "Let me double check for you!"

She prepared to bite Luzer/Oboro, but Peter stepped in, one of his Phantoms, and landed a huge right to her face. Peter got up and growled, "No one poses as my wife and tries to suck Luzer dry, while I am around…"

Luzer dropped to his knees and said, "Master…"

Peter said, as he approached him, "Dude, you're a freak!"

Luzer said, "Sorry, but Milady gave me the abilities to chime in. There's no full moon, tonight. But it's the only way. Plus, I get stronger at night. I'm sorry, Master…"

Peter smiled, "Thanks, buddy."

He said, as Luzer got up, "Now, I know this sounds weird, but let's finish this loser off!"

Luzer said, "I'm with you!"

Tohka laughed, "Really? So, you're his Master? How fragile. I can see that you resort to your Darkness Shadow to save your friend? Useless! It's acting as you wanted to perish! But make no mistake, your friend will pay dividends, for lying to us!"

Tohka boomed, "SHIINA! SENA! My sisters, drain this bastard dry! Leave these Transylvanian troglodytes to me!"

Tohka stared down at Peter and Luzer, as Peter said, "Tell me, before you perish, it's about your master, MIO! How many innocent lives does she consume?"

Tohka smirked, "I don't know. How many loaves of bread have you eaten in your lifetime?"

Peter growled in anger, as Luzer/Oboro said, "You vampire! How dare you!"

Tohka smiled, "My mistress was asked that question, long ago, before she met her apparent end. And yet you stand tall, wanting to end her. The DNC, or Decency Nation Capital, wants a perfect world, erased of perversion. Well, that's because it's all a front. Just don't tell Miss Nishikinomiya about it, at all…"

Luzer asked, "And she is aware of this? Her parents? Her friends?"

Tohka said, "What difference does it make? Anna Nishikinomiya's heart was broken, when her ex-lover dumped her. Now, she obeys one person and one person alone – the devil, herself. And no, NOT Tohru Honda, that pretender! She had good in her, all this time. But my mistress… She's 100% pure evil… and by far, this world, and in general, every single alternate universe, shall fall to this amazing woman, powerful, sexy, vicious, and very glorious!"

Peter said, "Hell, she's no Bobby Roode, and I'm not singing her praises! She dares to consume our friends, and make them into slaves! Even so, this DNC was a front, right?"

Luzer said, "She's right. But only because there's more to it. I can't say, but it's not the right time."

He asked, "Who told you this?"

Tohka smiled, "What difference does it make? You are going to die, anyway. You two, along with the rest of your interfering little apes."

She unsheathed her sword and said, "Now, you die tonight: by either my blade, my feminine wiles, or by your reckless behavior!"

Peter said to Luzer/Oboro, "You thinking what I'm thinking?"

Luzer/Oboro said, "Your powers… Yes. But do not make me into Dark Hawk. I want to fight like you."

"That's fine. You know my Chaos Fist?"

"Always. The Countess did train me, among others."

"Ah, good. OH! I almost forgot. How's Cheslea and Lubbock, by the way?"

"Delicious. Sorry I didn't save a slab for you."

"Ew, no. I don't like raw flesh, anyway. Give me fish and fowl."

Tohka barked, "COME! Why are you talking to each other, like you're gay lovers? Yes, I'm aware that Tsukimigusa is a dude, but that's how he's programmed."

Luzer barked, "He's not a robot!"

Peter said, "And he's Matsukage's property! But I'll be lashing to him, next, once we're done with you."

Tohka smirked, "Don't act so coy. I rather be seeing your heads on a pike! NOW, DIE!"

She slashed down towards the two, but they dodged out of the way. Peter produced his gauntlet and said, "Okay, Nosferatu, you asked for it!"

His right arm shone, as Tohka halted, "What the devil?"

He bellowed, raising it high, "By the power of Darkveil!"

Thunder struck him, as he was wearing his black blazer and jeans, with a gold and crimson cape, and dark red shoulder pads. He held his hands out, and continued, "I HAVE THE POWER!"

Rook gasped, as Shiina and Sena turned to the huge light, "WHAT THE HELL? WHAT IS HE?"

Peter transformed into Master, his Darkveil alter-ego and superpowered form. Tohka seethed, "You… You're that strong! Bloodied his nose, and he comes out twice as fierce!"

Master said, "Luzer, my feathered fiend! Remain in your human form!"

He fired a blast of dark energy to Luzer/Oboro, as it consumes him. He dropped to his knees, as he cried, "MASTER! I SAID DO NOT!"

Master said, "I'm not. My Phantoms… are your Phantoms…"

Luzer/Oboro was astonished, but confused, "Huh?"

Tohka cried, "Master, huh? More like Masturbator! DIE YOU PUNK!"

Master lands a swift knee to her gut, as he boomed, "As much as I disapprove of your vulgar jokes, Ayame Kajou, I'm not letting these vampires of smut steal your thunder."

Tohka croaked, dropping to her knees. Shiina and Sena dashed towards her, as he roared, "LET'S BURN IT UP!"

Sena continued to strike with her D-sword, while Shiina uses her black katana, about to slash and swipe at Master. But he avoided each strike. He then said, as he called, "Ladies, I do not know who you are, nor do I care, but I refuse to let your Mistress have her way! Have at you!"

He lands a huge right hook to Shiina's face, and a massive left cross to Sena's chest. He then grasped Shiina's neck and said, "Okay, Buffy! Time to slay you!"

He tossed Shiina upward and called out, revving his right arm, "Master Technique - DARKNESS RAILWAY UPPER!"

KAPOW!
"REPENT, MOTHERFUCKER!" He yelled, as he lands a massive right uppercut to Shiina's jaw. She flew upwards, after two seconds, and crashed right into two huge trees. He dusted himself off, as Sena was shocked, "Sister…"

Shiina dropped to the ground, bloodied and badly scarred. Master said, "Who's next?"

Luzer/Oboro said, "Impressive! But it's not enough. If it were five seconds, she'd be finished."

Tohka growled, "You bastard! Darkness Shadow or not, you're going to die!"

She landed a massive barrage of punches and sword strikes towards Peter.
"USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS, USELESS!"

He blocked the punches, but having difficulty holding back, "Man, you make this too easy!"

He countered with his barrage of punches of his own.
"ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA, ORA!"

They exchanged rapid-fire punches, with Tohka and Peter shouting at the same time. Luzer/Oboro watch on, as Sena said to him, "You! Imposter!"

"What, me?" Luzer/Oboro asked.

Sena said, "Shiina is out. It's up to me."

Luzer giggled, "Hehehehehehehehehe… Well, don't say I didn't warn you. You think I am human, but you're wrong. I happened to be trained by my mistress… My own mistress!"

He posed, "And if you think that I'm going to give sympathy for you, since you're already dead, forget it! You won't even last five minutes against me!"

He said to her, "Sena Aoi… I know exactly who you are. I'm not to forward this information to The Gang or anybody else. But when you use people for her evil intentions, that makes me, my countess, and my master very angry! Even a young avian like me knows true evil, like you, even from a former life! And that's why… IN THE NAME OF DARKVEIL, I WILL DESTROY YOU!"

Shiina started to get up, as Sena said, "Why suffer? Our plans have already started. You see, in this fight, there are winners and losers… And the losers are always evil…"

Shiina lands kunais onto Luzer's back, impaling him, as Sena swipes her D-Sword onto his chest area. Shiina & Sena's wounds slowly regenerated, as Sena said, "You see, even we know the secrets behind the mistress, our mistress: MIO. Long before we died, we learned of her great power, and have no choice but to assist her."

Luzer/Oboro slowly got up, as Sena added, "Why fight it?"

Shiina huffed, "And yet he still gets up. Your master can't avenge you, you demonic deity. Whether you play as Miss Tsukimigusa, Miss Anna, or any other person, you can't be victorious, all the time. Let me ask you this, friend…"

She held her katana up and said, "Can you survive your life, without a head?"

Shiina held her blade up and dashed towards Luzer/Oboro. Luzer groaned, as the blade was aimed for his neck, "Is that so? Would it be safe to assume that I'm faster in hindsight?"

SLASH!
Shiina decapitated Luzer, as Rook cried, "NOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Shiina said, as Luzer's head drops to the ground, "Target destroyed. The imposter was really Miss Tsukimigusa, after all."

She walked off, towards Rook, as she said, "Now, it's your turn…"

He stammered, as Peter was too focused on Tohka. Shiina was about to stab at him, but…

SLASH!
Shiina was sliced on the back, but Luzer/Oboro, who remained whole. He said, "Well played, ninja! But I've had worse!"

His arms were stiff and flat, like blade arms. Luzer/Oboro said, "You're pathetic, if you think you would've got me. Besides, if you took too long, you may get an imposter of me."

Luzer's decapitated head was actually one of his Phantoms that Master gave him. The head vanished, as Sena cried, "An afterimage attack? WHAT?"

Luzer/Oboro cried, landing a huge left kick to Sena's face, "Now, witness the darkness of my homeland, only through the power of Darkveil! DIE!"

He landed a barrage of punches to Shiina, and roared, "La revedere pentru totdeauna! ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA! ORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

He lands the last punch, into Shiina's solar plexus. He stepped back, as Shiina croaked, "His power… is incredible… Sena… Avenge… m-."

THUD!
She collapsed onto the ground and died out. Shiina started to shake and spaz, as Rook said, "Whoa! Amazing little crow, give that vampire a huge blow! She's out like a light, and such a devilish fright!"

Sena gasped, as she sobbed, "Shiina…"

Her body was badly hurt, as most of her skin was cut open, revealing dark red blood and chrome parts. Wait… CHROME PARTS?!

Rook cried, "WHAT THE WHAAAAA?"

Tohka gasped, "NO! Shiina, my sister!"

Master growled, "A robot! No… A vampire robot?! Hold on! What is going on?"

Shiina, as she laid dead, was an android. She was, in fact, powered by a small blue gem, inside her chest area. It dimmed down and faded to black, as Sena cringed, "Shiina…"

Rook asked, "Any idea what's going on?"

Luzer/Oboro said, "Queen Mio… MIO… whatever you call her… She's not human, at all! My countess said it best… She's part-fembot, part-vampire!"

Peter said to Tohka, "So, you're a hybrid of human, gynoid, and bloodsucker, eh? And I suppose you're the perfect woman…"

Tohka said, "My mistress is the perfect woman. You dare soil my darling sister's body with your deep cuts? No matter how many times you assault us, we come out stronger than ever. Even if we break down and die, or even malfunction into a mess, we repair ourselves. The gems we are powered by are…"

She exposed her purple gem, as she finished, "…rather alluring…"

It was implanted on her chest, above her breasts, as she cackled, "AH, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!"

Peter said, "Not human, but freaky women! You're very freaky! And yet you obey this MIO! What is she? Vampire, robot, or both? I have a right to know!"

Luzer/Oboro said, "I can't give you everything, Master. But we have to destroy them. They should not live to see this moment."

Peter barked, "I wasn't talking to you, Luzer! I was talking to Purple Girl, over here!"

Tohka said, as she brimmed a violet aura around her, "The boy in drag says all… but he is correct. You must never know MIO's true form. Even as you get up, you can never best the Jewel Women."

"So, there's a name for you freaks?" Peter asked.

Tohka said, "Yes. We are Jewel Women – hybrid superhumans that obey the guardians of Fuji. We are more powerful than average human beings. And we're very perfect."

Sena added, "We're perfect. Our bodies are perfect, since we cannot age, cannot grow weak, cannot get sick, and cannot suffer emotions, like you. Jewel Women are birthed, by choice, and by era."

Tohka said, "And now, you know too much about our evil bloodline. We are to protect the Fuji area, only to assure safety to a perfect world. All have tried, but few have succeeded, only for them to fail at finishing us off. Perfection is our rule."

"Perfection is key."

"Perfection is bliss."

They said in unison, "Perfection is perfect."

Luzer/Oboro growled, "Like a bunch of Stepford Wives."

Master said, "Well put, my boon companion, whose posing as my sworn enemy. Ladies, you know what they say – Nobody's perfect."

Rook joined in, as he said, "I don't know what, but I have a feeling that you two are freaks."

Master replied, "You do realize that this is my highest form. Luzer and I have learned from the Art of Darkness. And now, since you know of our power, join us, Rook. Fight these demons back to the bowels of Hell, from whence they belong!"

Rook replied, "Indeed. I knew they were vampires, from the first I look at it. These hybrids of the great demon of old, Nosferatu, are perverted into a sadomasochistic spawn of science and black magic! They are nothing more than inhuman monsters, created by an evil source, deep within Japan's famous landmark!"

He unsheathed his sword and barked, "If MIO wants to make a perfect world, she'll have to go through ALL OF US! Where they come from, and how they are created, I don't even want to know! They are sickening spawns of Satan, himself! And I do say so, since these ravishing cuties in dark clothing are wreaked with sulfur and brimstone!"

Luzer/Oboro said, "Wow… You said much, and you didn't even rhyme."

Master said, "Well said, Humming Rook~! Now, LET'S END THESE BITCHES FROM HELL!"

They prepared to fight, as Tohka and Sena charged at them. They began the attack, as the battle progressed on.

So, MIO is a vampire-gynoid. Or is she? There's so much more about MIO, and Luzer and Countess Kendra knows of her past. But who else knows of this MIO?
Stay tuned to the next chapter, and find out…
