34. Enter Ultimate Rugal
"I really don't need this." Darrell complained as he stood at the new dark advisary. "Another superpower to deal with."
Rugal's skin color, which was normal before the absorption, was now the same color of Akuma's. He even came with his own Satsu aura. but this was different. It felt fueled by something.
"I take it that you are going to try to stop me." Rugal said as a grin rose on his face. "You were very fortunate to defeat Akuma once and for all. but I shall be much harder."
"Okay, guys," Sakura K. started while detting into her fighting stance, "Keep your guard up. He's no ordinary fighter."
"I sorta noticed that already, sis," Sakura S. answered.
Rugal smiled again before bringing his right arm up.
"Reppuken!"
He swung it down, creating a ground projectile that rocketed to the three.
"Scatter!" Darrell yelled out and the three dodged in different directions, Sakura S. jumping straight up and charging up.
"Hadouken!' she yelled as she threw her own blast at Rugal. Rugal just laughed, putting up a green barrier in front of him. The Hadouken bounced off it. right at Darrell.
"What the.?!" he gasped, quickly putting up his guard and successfully blocking it in time. He heard another laugh from Rugal. and felt pain in his backside. Rugal teleported behind him and jumped into the air with a kick with a white streak behind it. It felt as if someone took a sword, a real one, and sliced him along his back. Darrell hit the ground, eating grass, and his shirt had a ripped slash along the back.
{Shit! Darrell's down!} Sakura S. thought. She used her Ashura Senka to warp to the side of Rugal, preparing herself.
"Shouoken!"
Rugal barely saw the Satsu girl rush him and put both arms out at his sides.
"Kaiser."
Sakura sensed him building energy and tried to stop but it was too late.
"Wave!!"
The tall man in the blood red suit launched a huge blast of purple energy and nailed Sakura, sending her back. He then quickly warped and followed with a strong backhand, then grabbed her with the same arm.
"Shi ne!!" he yelled as he rushed and slammed her against a huge tree, causing it to erupt with his energy into the air, a skull flashing within it. Sakura S. as done with, laid out in the debris and gasping for air.
{Who. is this freak!?} Sakura K. asked inside her head. She was about to pick him off from a distance if it wasn't for Darrell coming from behind, making another flame sword.
"Eat this!" her boyfriend as he jumped into the air, ready to slash Rugal in the back. and Sakura took that as her cue. She charged up, a blue sphere appearing in her hands.
"Shinku."
She waited until Rugal began to face Darrell and fired.
"HADOUKEN!!"
Meanwhile, Rugal met Darrell's sword as he planted it right on his shoulder. but for some odd reason it didn't slash through.
"What??"
"You're weakening aren't you?" Rugal smirked as he grabbed the 'blade' of Darrell's sword and threw it to his side. Since Darrell still had a handle on it, he was sent off balance towards that way. Very bad place to be in as Darrell sensed a large boost of energy to his left, looked. and screamed as Sakura's blast, intended for Rugal, nailed him instead.
{Oh, no.} Sakura K. thought in shock. {What did I do.?}
Once again Darrell fell to the ground, only this time he stayed down, trying to recover from the attack. Rugal just looked at him over his shoulder.
"This shall be an easy victory," he smirked. "Now. there is just one more pest to get rid of"
The light Sakura stared at Rugal, who began to slowly walk towards her. She began to walk backwards, planning on what to do.
{This is bad. Both my sis and boyfriend are down for the count and I don't have anything strong enough to damage him much. I must have used up too much energy on Akuma's dumbass to pull off another Nekketsu Hadouken, too. Now what.?}
She couldn't give it another thought. Rugal disappeared from her sight and put a hand on her shoulder. from behind. Sakura's mind locked up, frozen in fear.
"Need not worry, child," Rugal said calmly. "I'll make your death as quick as possible."
Sakura was spun around and grabbed by the neck. She caught a glimpse of Rugal's eyes, completely red, and the grip on her throat tightened, making her squeal from the pain. As Rugal held her over his head, she tried to kick out, struggle, do SOMETHING to break the hold.
"This. shall be. your dying place."
Rugal then pumped a blat of his Evil Energy into Sakura's body, a skull appearing in the air with the energy like the on her twin sis. Sakura immediately stopped moving but Rugal wasn't done. Re repeated the burst 12 more times before throwing her to the ground, barely breathing.
"As I thought." he mouthed. "This is the ultimate combination of power. Evil Energy and Dark Power. I'm now invincible!"
"That's. what you. think."
Rugal heard the gasps of the male kid, slowly getting up off the grass. His shirt was almost ripped off completely, hanging on by both threads on his shoulder. His arms were hanging by his sides and his breathing was very labored. Rugal gave a quick laugh.
"You should've played dead," he said. "There is absolutely no way you can defeat me now."
"I. still have something. on reserve." Darrell mouthed, his aura doing down a bit from gold to red-orange. However, this state made his power go up.
{What is he doing?}
"Shakunetsu. Burst. X2."
Darrell's hand went aflame. then both arms. Once again Rugal smirked.
"Interesting how you have so many ways to get energy," he said. "Your bond with the girl. your own aura. and now this. Maybe after I kill you I'll take your energy as well."
Darrell didn't reply. He began to close in the gap slightly. then started to run. Rugal braced himself.
"Rekka. Nakkura!!!"
Darrell used what little he had left into his combo super. but Rugal blocked everything except the last Shakunetsuken; he countered that.
"You're finished!" he yelled as he delivered an overhead slash kick, ending Darrell's super prematurely. He then landed a kick to the stomach and then another rising kcik, with one leg first, then the other. Darrell dropped like a rock, bouncing off the grass before landing face-first into the grass, covered with his own blood. His flame had extinguished as well but once again he tried to get up.
"Futile." was the only word Rugal said to the young fight as he raised him upper body up. but.
{I. I. have nothing left.}
Darrell finally gave up and collapsed, triggering a smile on Rugal's face.
"Yes. That's perfect. Now I shall claim his power for my own."
Rugal calmly put a hand over Darrell's head, his faint red-orange aura appearing. He started to absorb it.
SHING!!!
"Gyah!!"
Rugal's process was interrupted by a blast of energy from out of nowhere, gazing his shoulder but nailing him in the back. He growled as he looked towards the direction where it came from and spotted the culprit. A boy. wearing a green uniform. and silked hair...
"Go on and try that again. Just letting you know that if you do. I won't miss."
Just then Darrell sputtered something and although it wasn't noticeable at first glance, in close expection he was smiling.
"Y. Y. Yu. Yusuke."
