Somewhere in another section of the factory complex, a stealthy shadow of a teenager crept in the dark, cramped paths of the airducts. This silent form was obviously Kenji, whose quiet attitude and caring face was hidden behind a thick scarf and his soft eyes reverting into ones that showed that they were cold, ruthless in their task. Right before the entire group entered the facility, Kenji convinced the rest of them that he could find Uriko alone while the rest of them fought MARS, that it would be faster that way. Of course that was the better solution, so they agreed. As the ninja carefully checked each room through the open vents, the gut feeling, that every zoanthrope had that allowed them to sense others like them, continually got stronger and stronger until he finally reached the final vent in that section of the ducts and looked through the grid-wire mesh. In normal cases he would have gasped, but his discipline as an Ex-assassin kept him from doing so. Down in the small office room that doubled now as a bedroom there, laid his objective: Uriko. Chained against the wall, she pulled as hard as she could against her metal bonds, hoping that with enough force they would snap loose.
URIKO! Kenji almost yelled aloud, instead he pried open the mesh grid and slipped through, feet first. Uriko immediately turned to meet the Kenji as he landed on the bed. The moment Kenji hit the ground he brought a finger to where his mouth would be behind the scarf, promptly giving the message "don't talk", Uriko just quietly nodded. Pulling down his scarf, Kenji walked over to his counterpart in which they met in an intimate embrace.
"I missed you" Uriko whispered into his ear
"I did too" Kenji answered, softening a bit, "You okay?"
"I'm fine, where are the others?"
"They went to fight MARS" Kenji finished before taking out a ninja star and started picking the locks on the shackles, "It would be best if we met up with them" The chains came off with a deft "click". Uriko rubbed her wrists gingerly for a couple of seconds before they both the voice of the man that they all so dearly hated.
"aww, isn't that sweet, prince Bakuryu came to free princess Neptune" then a sound of a pistol hammer being drawed back was heard, "Too bad all the happy endings belong only with me" As the duo turned around to face the evil scientist, Busuzima was smiling evilly as they always saw him do. Kenji stanced himself to attack Busuzima, he just wagged his finger at Kenji.
"Uh-uh, this is a .356 Magnum, enough power to remove a head off its shoulders, maybe make it disappear completely, and if there's one thing I know, it's that bullets will always fly faster than any of your fancy ninja tricks, Bakuryu"
"It's Kenji", the ninja replied, glaring down the length of the gun
"Yeah whatever, I think it would go better as dead, now that mars is working again, you're pretty much useless. So good-bye" Busuzima, now paying his last respects, began to pull the trigger, in that same split second, Kenji threw a small object at his at the scientist. As the gun fired, the barrel section immediately exploded in a shower of metal, Busuzima yelling in surprise and dropping the remains of the weapon as it sparked on the ground. Uriko used the situation quickly as she charged towards Busuzima, tackling him and knocking him of balance even more. As Busuzima stumbled back he looked back at where Kenji was, only to see a few leaves replacing where he was. Busuzima then felt arm wrap around his waist before he felt his world turn upside down as he was thrown backwards into the ground. As the scientist drunkenly staggered back up, Kenji's hand gripped his neck, pinning Busuzima against the wall. As Kenji glared a hole in the scientist's head, the trapped villain just smirked.
"Are you going to kill me, Bakuryu? maybe you are useful after all"
"Kenji let's go, we have to go help the others" Uriko called out to Kenji, knocking him out of his little "hate-trance"
"Alright" Kenji answered, Busuzima just snickered
"You're still weak Bakuryu"
"Stronger than you'll ever be" Kenji then squeezed his fingers on a pressure on the evil scientist's neck, knocking him out cold. He then looked back at Uriko before announcing the obvious.
"I think we should get going now" and so the two dashed out of the warehouse.
Finally turning the corner from where combat was heard, Uriko and Kenji gasped silently in horror at what they saw of the final two opponents of the hunter, MARS: Alice lay to one side unconscious, a large gaping blade wound running across her back. Yugo was suspended in the air, running out of strength, as a psychic appendage was wrapped around his neck, pulling him into the air like a noose. The hunter himself looked the most hideous: several psychic appendages lay limply on the ground as they emanated out of his back, awaiting his mental commands. His eyes now glowed with purple psychic energy some of it even smoking out, as if he was some spectral spirit. MARS no longer talked in words as his telepathic capabilities came more and more natural. Finally I get to kill you, stupid wolf MARS grinned as his fingers on one of his hands began to elongate into purple claws.
Yugo pulled at the "noose" around neck desperately as MARS began to draw them back, preparing to impale him.
"NOOOOOOOOO!" a voice from behind cried out in some war cry. MARS was then tackled in the back by a charging Kenji, thus knocking both Yugo and the hunter onto the ground. As Yugo got back up he saw MARS and Kenji facing each other, while Uriko ran the ninja's side.
"Yugo, go help Alice, we'll take care of Mars" Kenji said, not taking his eyes of MARS. Yugo, just gave a worried look before nodding and running over to the unconscious Alice. MARS followed the wolf's half running, half limping form before turning his eyes back to the duo before him.
I beat you even when my abilities were untapped, how could you even think you can beat me now?
"You can still be beaten" Uriko called back, as she began to stance herself. MARS just grinned at the two
I guess the round two is beginning then
A/N: Round two indeed! The story reaches its true climax as the Keniko now faces off against the creature I call "Insane Colt" now will you kindly REIVIEW ALREADY SO I CAN SEE THAT PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY READING THIS FIC!!!!
