CHAPTER FOUR- ULTIMATE EVIL UNLEASHED
"What? What are you talking about?!" Senji shouted. "You are not my sister!"
"Now now brother. Don't pull that act on me! I came to take you away. And we will marry and find ever lasting happiness!" A dark figure appeared and approached with loops of rope in her hand.
"What are you talking about? I have a 'younger' sister!"
"Wow are you saying that I look older than I used to? Oh brother! You pick just the right words at the right time!" The girl quickly ran towards Senji and embraced him lovingly. "What are you doing!" He could feel the girl's heart pounding but before he knew it, he was pinned down and had his hands tied. "Now brother. Let us go make sweet love together."
At that very moment Senji was truly scared as he found out that the girl was waring nothing but her underclothing. However he could not make out her face in the intense light. But without warning, he was kissed on the mouth by his kidnapper. "Wai. hmmm. hmmm!" He struggled for a bit but soon lost his will to fight any longer and his body relaxed.
The door to the bathroom was kicked opened and very soon, a sword was thrown to shatter the search light on the helicopter. Kanako quickly broke the kiss and both of them looked to the broken searchlight then to the door. All vision was soon restored to everyone as all of the residents gathered to see what all the commotion was all about. What they saw terrified them, especially Shinobu. Her arms began to shake and cold sweat sung her body like a thousand needles. A tear found its way down the side of her face as she looked into Senji's confused eyes.
It did not take long until Keitaro found his voice to speak again. "Kanako?" Kanako stared at Keitaro with a puzzled look. "Brother?" She quickly looked back at the person she was holding. "Who are you?!"
"What is going to here?!!!" All the on lookers shouted in unison. Senji blushed, still puzzled and defiantly frightened. "Well. She tried to kidnap me. See. she even tied me up look! I didn't do anything to make it all happen! Honest!"
Kanako was not happy. "Why you! And as if you did not want to play along with it!" She summoned her battle aurora and her fists flared up as energy which looked like fire gathered around her clenched hands. "Now go to hell!"
Senji quickly summoned his battle aurora and quickly jumped out of the bath (while keeping the towel around his waist on tight!), avoiding Kanako's first attack. He landed swiftly and broke through the rope which had bounded his hands. "Please. Can we just talk about this? It is obviously a misunderstanding. Maybe you mistook me for someone else." Kanako Hissed "Well. isn't that a bit obvious?!"
She attacked again with a high kick aimed at Senji's face. Senji ducked for her to miss him by a hair length. Using the motion of his dodge, he quickly swung his leg while his body kept lowering down towards the ground, delivering a tripping kick. His shin came in contact with Kanako's thy making her fall backwards down onto the ground. He too fell backwards as he was trying his best to cover himself from everyone's curious stares.
Kanako got up quickly and rubbed her behind in frustration. "Not bad." She said with pure venom. Both of them were silent as they exchanged stares while still maintaining their stance. They paced around the room in a circle. Kanako stared into Senji's eyes, however Senji was trying his best to keep his eyes off Kanako's cute underclothing "Kanako. there is much that we have to discuss. But can the both of you put some clothes on?" Keitaro said with embarrassment.
"Senji can stay the way he is. But Kanako definitely has to get into something more proper!" Mitsune said giving her usual foxy smile as she and the other girls admired his muscle build up.
Senji lowered his arms. "Yes. I am sure that we can negotiate without violence. I am a guest here so this is none of my business. Let us call it a truce right now and put something on." Kanako too lowered her hands "I was saving this till later but. Catch Motoko!" She threw a round object at Motoko who caught it just as it was mere millimetres away from her face. "What is this?."
"myu!"
"AAAAHHHHHHGGGGUE!"
Senji looked on surprised. "A turtle?" While Motoko was immobilised from the shock and everyone else busy trying to calm her down. Kanako pulled on her gas mask, and from her bag which she had with her, she revealed a grenade. Without hesitation, she pulled the pin and smoke quickly spewed out of the round object. The noxious gas filled the room destroying everyone's sense of smell, sight and balance. Their lungs ached from the coughing which was a quick side effect that took place.
"Kanako! What is the meaning of this?! Cough cough." Keitaro shouted as he tired hard to gasp for clean air. Kanako did not answer, instead she ran towards him and quickly bounded the stationary Keitaro with her remaining rope. "I am sorry brother. but I have found a source which will ensure our love! Come with me and we'll find the fountain of love together." Keitaro struggled as she pushed a cloth to his face but he soon passed out from the drugs which was present on the surface. "And as for all of you. farewell! Sorry Naru. but I will not miss this opportunity."
"Cough cough. fountain of love?"
"Yes! Where the power of love is at its peak! One dip in it will make him love me more than his very own life!"
Kanako jumped onto the helicopter with Keitaro in her arms. "Bye bye!" The helicopter took off, leaving the inhabitants trying to shield themselves from the massive gusts of wind. The gusts blew away the toxic smoke and vision and comfort once again returned to all of the ones present.
"NO! KEITARO! GIVE HIM BACK! Give him back!" Naru shouted desperately as she ran towards the balcony of the male's bath, but the helicopter flew further and further away. Tears filled her eyes as she desperately tried to find a way to reach him. She soon gave up collapsing onto the ground. "No."
"I am sorry Naru. but don't give up! We'll find him somehow. some way. After Suu comes home, we can surly find him without a problem." Mitsune said in a calm voice.
"But by then it will be too late!"
Reluctantly Mitsune replied. "True."
Everyone sighed. Shinobu went to Senji who has now put on a pair of boxers. "Are you okay Senji?" "I am okay. thankyou Shinobu. But I am sorry that I wasn't much help." Shinobu held on to Senji's right hand and examined it briefly. It was obvious that she was trying to hide her sadness by avoiding eye contact with everyone. "You did your best. and I am grateful."
"You told me that he was special to you. I understand that. So we have to find him! If that will make you happy that is what I'll do!"
"But we don't know where they are going to go!"
"That is a problem. There is no way I can track it down now. Hmm." Senji held onto his chin and thought deeply. 'What can we use to track down a helicopter. The aircraft is privately owned so there is no way of knowing where they went off to.' He pondered deeply for a while until frustration of not being able to come up with an answer made him open his eyes once more. Just as his eyes focused, he saw a folded piece of paper on the ground. He picked it up and examined its contents and smiled to himself.
Everyone looked at him with surprise and confusion, so he flipped the map around for everyone to analyse. "This. this."
"Yes! It is the map to the fountain of love! It is an original so Keitaro's kidnapper maybe forced to come back to retrieve it. Now let us set up our fortifications and work out our ambush strategies in preparation of our kidnapper's return!"
* * *
Hinata sou had two guards. Motoko and Senji had guarded the grounds on two separate treetops on two opposite sides of the inn's grounds. The map was with Naru who was set as bait in the kitchen as she eagerly waited with Shinobu, Mitsune and Mutsume for Kanako's return. All was explained to Senji about Kanako and he seemed as determined as ever to get Keitaro back. He had borrowed a sword from Motoko.
It wasn't long until the sound of a helicopter's approach could be heard once more. Both guards drew their swords as the sound of the propellers got closer and closer. The black aircraft opened its doors as it hovered at a low altitude on the outskirts of the inn while three figures in black jumped out onto the solid ground. They dashed across the dark forests which surrounded Hinata sou but was met by two warriors which had blocked their paths. "This is as far as you go! Hand over Keitaro and we may consider on being easy on you!"
"Such big talk by two amateurs! By the time this is over you will be begging us to be more kinder!" The three ninja like figures ran towards them unsheathing swords of their own.
"Kanako is not with them. Aoyama San! I will handle these three. Please protect the others. I will join you shortly." Senji shouted as he too ran towards his enemies. The figures in black had all swung their sword forward towards Senji but with a side swing, their attacks were deflected away from his body and all three of them fell backwards onto the hard ground. "There is no time left Aoyama San! This is just a diversion! Naru and Shinobu may be under attack! Now GO! Please."
Motoko nodded and sprinted back to Hinata sou. "Now gentlemen. Show we begin?" Senji got into his battle stance as waves of his battle aurora turned the blade of his sword blue. Energy cracked around him as his entire body seemed to be consumed in yellow flames which lit up the dim forest. The energy faded after a while but its presents had only turned translucent in the darkness of the night. The three warriors tensed but attacked with fury. "Arrrrgue!"
Meanwhile Motoko had arrived at the inn. The sprint was not difficult for her yet her breathing was slightly heavier than she had expected. "Looks like I came at the right time. Kanako is just about to make her move." Motoko said to herself as she looked at the chopper hovering close to the main buildings.
She made it to the kitchen quickly and saw that everyone was as she had left them. "Motoko sempai!" Shinobu shouted in surprise. "Yes it is I. But we have to prepare ourselves. It seems Kanako is here! Someone. give me the map. I have a better chance of keeping it safe."
Mutsume responded. "Ara. I guess you are right. Here it is with me." She took the folded map out from under the sofa cushion that she was sitting on. As she was about to hand it to Motoko the sliding door to the room was kicked opened. "STOP! Don't give it to her!"
Mutsume looked on in surprise as she was seeing two Motokos in the room. "Ara?"
"Looks like the game is over." Said the Motoko in front of Mutsume as she removed her mask and wig to reveal Kanako.
"Where the hell is Keitaro?!" Demanded the real Motoko angry from Kanako's lousy act of impersonating her. Kanako sighed and looked at Motoko easily in the eye. "He is outside. See." The helicopter landed close to the kitchen window where its doors opened to reveal an unconscious but tied up Keitaro.
"Why are you doing this? Didn't you let me take care of him? Kanako you have given him up! Why do you want him again?!" Naru shouted as she saw her lover. Kanako giggled. "I have always loved him. He did not love me only because I was his sister. I had no chance right from the beginning and now that I found this map to the fountain of love. He will be mine for the taking! But this is a chance I am definitely going to take."
Kanako drew her sword and snatched the map from Mutsume. "That was easy!" Motoko rushed forward and attacked with her drawn sword "Then let me make it a little more challenging!". Kanako blocked the attack with a reversed side swing as sparks of energy cracked around the blades. Motoko's black sword shone brightly in the lightened room while Kanako struggled as Motoko slashed furiously at her. 'Damn! She is powerful! I thought my decoys where more than a match for her. Or. Damn that boy. I bet he was responsible in taking care of the them while Motoko came back here!'
Kanako somersaulted back where she put up her battle stance looking threatened for the first time since she had arrived. "I see that you are as good as you ever was Aoyama Motoko. But you will not defeat my new technique!" Her battle aurora soared as she kept her stance making her hands glow like flames of a fire. Her sword began to glow and vibrate as she channelled her energy through the blade.
Motoko froze as she remembered a painful memory. 'This is Senji's technique he used to defeat me a few years ago!' She forced herself to forget and concentrated on defeating her opponent. 'I am not going to let you unleash the attack!' She thought as she leapt forward to deliver an attack of her own. 'No! Too late!'
Kanako swung her sword forward and hit Motoko's blade with full force. The energy channelled through Kanako's sword repelled Hinata (Motoko's sword) greatly as they had came in contact with one another. A shockwave created from Kanako's attack crashed forward and Motoko was flung metres back into a solid wall. Kanako collapsed onto her knees and panted 'I have not yet perfected the technique. I am feeling so weak already.' She gulped and picked herself up and walked over to Motoko triumphantly.
Her adversary was out cold on the ground. "You attacked quickly. That means that you did the right thing. But your only mistake was that you are not quick enough to stop me." Kanako looked around to see everyone looking on with both surprise and fear. "Looks like I have won! So I bid you farewell."
"Not yet!"
Kanako spun around to see Senji at the door. "You!"
"Yes me! Your decoys have failed. You are mine! I challenge you Urashima Kanako." Senji drew his sword and took his battle stance. Kanako breathed out slowly and reluctantly raised her sword once more. "Since I did not prepare anything special for you. it seems that I do not have a choice except to take your challenge!"
Senji smiled and began to channel his energy into his blade and soon the sword glowed to reveal a pale blue light which had engulfed the room. The intensity of the light lowered and bolts of energy escaped through the tip of the blade. Senji closed his eyes and pointed his sword forward towards his opponent as the sword vibrated violently making a high pitched screech which was unbearable to hear. "No." He reopened his eyes as he sensed that something was wrong. Suddenly his sword cracked and snapped in two. ".Damn I over did it! I need a better sword for this technique!"
However Kanako was summoning her energy to her sword as her blade glowed dark blue. It was a perfect opportunity for Kanako to attack. "Arrrrgh!" With a loud battle cry Kanako attacked swinging her now fully energised sword at Senji.
Senji quickly blocked her attack with his half sword and was flung back much like Motoko. He crashed into a wall which shattered on impact. "Damn it!" Cursed Senji while Kanako smiled weakly but triumphantly as she tried to support herself with her sword.
"Senji!" Shinobu shouted as she ran towards his shaking body. "No! Stay back Shinobu! It is not over yet!" Senji picked himself up and wiped a trace of blood off his lips. "That was something. I haven't had that attack used against me for a few years now! I'll need a better sword in order to do that again!" Senji looked around and saw Motoko's black sword lying still near his foot. "This will do nicely! I hope that Motoko does not mind if I."
Suddenly fear surged trough Naru as her heart sank. "No! Senji don't touch it! It is." Naru's cries reached him too late as he set his fingers on the sword's handle, there was suddenly a shock wave of pure evil energy which sent everyone flying backwards while all the lights and appliances shorted out. A pitch-black sphere widened and engulfed Senji while gusts of wind and dust spiralled around the ball of energy. Bolts of electricity cracked all over it sending rays of intense light into the eyes of the frightened onlookers. The winds sent chills down their spines as an evil soul was released from the sword and entered Senji's body.
The pitch-black sphere lost the bolts of energy momentarily before it too dispersed into a smocking haze. Once the smoke cleared, the backside of Senji's was once again visible to everyone's eyes. Dark flames had engulfed him yet he looked calm. No one could see his face but his body was perfectly still as he held on to the dark sword with one hand. "Senji?" Shinobu said in a trembling voice as she stood up, still holding onto her shoulder which was sore from her fall. "Are you okay?"
"Hehehe. Ah hahahaha!" Senji slowly raised his arms as the black flames sank into him. Everyone tensed as his feet slowly left the floor. He hovered in the air for a little while as he slowly spun around and landed softly back onto the ground. From the limited light within the room, his face was covered by the shadow which was cast by his hair. But as he opened his eyes it revealed a pair of pupils which glowed of a blood red. "[Giggle] Never better![Giggle] Never better!"
END OF CHAPTER
Okay maybe it did not turn out to be as outrageous as I hoped. There are just too many action scenes. But I think I am going to end the story in the next chapter. So bare with me! It will be more romantic with a lower amount of fight scenes.

CHAPTER FOUR- ULTIMATE EVIL UNLEASHED
"What? What are you talking about?!" Senji shouted. "You are not my sister!"
"Now now brother. Don't pull that act on me! I came to take you away. And we will marry and find ever lasting happiness!" A dark figure appeared and approached with loops of rope in her hand.

At that very moment Senji was truly scared as he found out that the girl was waring nothing but her underclothing. However he could not make out her face in the intense light.

The door to the bathroom was kicked opened and very soon, a sword was thrown to shatter the search light on the helicopter. Kanako quickly broke the kiss and both of them looked to the broken searchlight then to the door. All vision was soon restored to everyone as all of the residents gathered to see what all the commotion was all about. What they saw terrified them, especially Shinobu. Her arms began to shake and cold sweat sung her body like a thousand needles. A tear found its way down the side of her face as she looked into Senji's confused eyes.
It did not take long until Keitaro found his voice to speak again. "Kanako?" Kanako stared at Keitaro with a puzzled look. "Brother?" She quickly looked back at the person she was holding. "Who are you?!"
"What is going to here?!!!" All the on lookers shouted in unison. Senji blushed, still puzzled and defiantly frightened. "Well. She tried to kidnap me. See. she even tied me up look! I didn't do anything to make it all happen! Honest!"
Kanako was not happy. "Why you! And as if you did not want to play along with it!" She summoned her battle aurora and her fists flared up as energy which looked like fire gathered around her clenched hands. "Now go to hell!"
Senji quickly summoned his battle aurora and quickly jumped out of the bath (while keeping the towel around his waist on tight!), avoiding Kanako's first attack. He landed swiftly and broke through the rope which had bounded his hands. "Please. Can we just talk about this? It is obviously a misunderstanding. Maybe you mistook me for someone else." Kanako Hissed "Well. isn't that a bit obvious?!"
She attacked again with a high kick aimed at Senji's face. Senji ducked for her to miss him by a hair length.

His shin came in contact with Kanako's thy making her fall backwards down onto the ground. He too fell backwards as he was trying his best to cover himself from everyone's curious stares.

But can the both of you put some clothes on?" Keitaro said with embarrassment.
"Senji can stay the way he is. But Kanako definitely has to get into something more proper!" Mitsune said giving her usual foxy smile as she and the other girls admired his muscle build up.
Senji lowered his arms. "Yes. I am sure that we can negotiate without violence. I am a guest here so this is none of my business. Let us call it a truce right now and put something on." Kanako too lowered her hands "I was saving this till later but. Catch Motoko!" She threw a round object at Motoko who caught it just as it was mere millimetres away from her face. "What is this?."
"myu!"
"AAAAHHHHHHGGGGUE!"
Senji looked on surprised. "A turtle?" While Motoko was immobilised from the shock and everyone else busy trying to calm her down. Kanako pulled on her gas mask, and from her bag which she had with her, she revealed a grenade. Without hesitation, she pulled the pin and smoke quickly spewed out of the round object. The noxious gas filled the room destroying everyone's sense of smell, sight and balance. Their lungs ached from the coughing which was a quick side effect that took place.
"Kanako! What is the meaning of this?! Cough cough." Keitaro shouted as he tired hard to gasp for clean air. Kanako did not answer, instead she ran towards him and quickly bounded the stationary Keitaro with her remaining rope. "I am sorry brother. but I have found a source which will ensure our love! Come with me and we'll find the fountain of love together." Keitaro struggled as she pushed a cloth to his face but he soon passed out from the drugs which was present on the surface. "And as for all of you. farewell! Sorry Naru. but I will not miss this opportunity."
"Cough cough. fountain of love?"
"Yes! Where the power of love is at its peak! One dip in it will make him love me more than his very own life!"
Kanako jumped onto the helicopter with Keitaro in her arms. "Bye bye!" The helicopter took off, leaving the inhabitants trying to shield themselves from the massive gusts of wind. The gusts blew away the toxic smoke and vision and comfort once again returned to all of the ones present.
"NO! KEITARO! GIVE HIM BACK! Give him back!" Naru shouted desperately as she ran towards the balcony of the male's bath, but the helicopter flew further and further away. Tears filled her eyes as she desperately tried to find a way to reach him. She soon gave up collapsing onto the ground. "No."
"I am sorry Naru. but don't give up! We'll find him somehow. some way. After Suu comes home, we can surly find him without a problem." Mitsune said in a calm voice.

Senji quickly blocked her attack with his half sword and was flung back much like Motoko. He crashed into a wall which shattered on impact. "Damn it!" Cursed Senji while Kanako smiled weakly but triumphantly as she tried to support herself with her sword.
"Senji!" Shinobu shouted as she ran towards his shaking body. "No! Stay back Shinobu! It is not over yet!" Senji picked himself up and wiped a trace of blood off his lips. "That was something. I haven't had that attack used against me for a few years now! I'll need a better sword in order to do that again!" Senji looked around and saw Motoko's black sword lying still near his foot. "This will do nicely! I hope that Motoko does not mind if I."
Suddenly fear surged trough Naru as her heart sank. "No! Senji don't touch it! It is." Naru's cries reached him too late as he set his fingers on the sword's handle, there was suddenly a shock wave of pure evil energy which sent everyone flying backwards while all the lights and appliances shorted out. A pitch-black sphere widened and engulfed Senji while gusts of wind and dust spiralled around the ball of energy. Bolts of electricity cracked all over it sending rays of intense light into the eyes of the frightened onlookers. The winds sent chills down their spines as an evil soul was released from the sword and entered Senji's body.
The pitch-black sphere lost the bolts of energy momentarily before it too dispersed into a smocking haze. Once the smoke cleared, the backside of Senji's was once again visible to everyone's eyes. Dark flames had engulfed him yet he looked calm. No one could see his face but his body was perfectly still as he held on to the dark sword with one hand. "Senji?" Shinobu said in a trembling voice as she stood up, still holding onto her shoulder which was sore from her fall. "Are you okay?"
"Hehehe. Ah hahahaha!" Senji slowly raised his arms as the black flames sank into him. Everyone tensed as his feet slowly left the floor. He hovered in the air for a little while as he slowly spun around and landed softly back onto the ground. From the limited light within the room, his face was covered by the shadow which was cast by his hair. But as he opened his eyes it revealed a pair of pupils which glowed of a blood red. "[Giggle] Never better![Giggle] Never better!"
END OF CHAPTER
Okay maybe it did not turn out to be as outrageous as I hoped. There are just too many action scenes. But I think I am going to end the story in the next chapter. So bare with me! It will be more romantic with a lower amount of fight scenes.
