Chapter 12 "The Hokage"
Shadows engulfed me, surrounding me in darkness. I lashed out with the kougon anki, attempting to part the shadows, but to no avail. The dark void around me stayed put, showing only black everywhere I looked.
"Recca! Yanagi!" I bellowed, looking around for the faintest spark, the smallest dot of light in the distance. "Fuuko! Mikagami! Domon!!"
'Shouting for the gorilla for help . . .' I mumbled to myself. 'I have to be desperate, ne?' I paused and exhaled loudly, trying to calm myself down. 'This must be the power of his madougu, since he can control shadows of course he can use them in this way . . .' Shouldering my madougu, I started walking around slowly, feeling the ground with my feet.
"I wonder if everyone else is stuck in this . . ." I said out loud, wincing at how my voice interrupted the silence that surrounded me. "Fuck . . . I can't depend on them getting me out've this place." I blinked. "This reminds me of Magensha. Maybe this isn't shadows covering me . . ." I turned and looked about again. "It could be another dimension, one that has no light?"
I started walking faster as images of the rest of the Hokage lost in this world of darkness alone filled my head. The farther I walked, the angrier I became. I started growling threats directed at Kage under my breath. "Fucking bastard . . . trying to bloody hurt Yanagi . . . everyone . . . If I catch that asshole . . ."
Without knowing it, my pace quickened and soon I was sprinting through the darkness. "How the hell am I supposed to know where the fuck I am??" I shouted to myself in between pants. I stopped as I realized the first option wasn't possible. "If I was just covered in shadows . . . I would still be in Kagero-san's house, I would've run into a wall by now . . ."
"Great . . . so now I'm not covered in shadows," I muttered to myself. "I'm just in a new fucking dimension where Kage rules . . . _ Damndamndamndamn!!" I started running again, slashing with Kougon anki. "There has to be an end to this damn place somewhere!!!"
(Change of POV to Recca's POV)
'Damn Koganei! What the hell's his problem??' I shouted to myself as the teen knelt in front of the fallen Kage. 'When we finally get the bastard where we want him, he fucking becomes sympathetic??'
"Promise you won't hurt Yanagi. Promise, and we'll let you go."
A vein stood out on my forehead as I clenched my teeth tightly. "Who the hell says we'll let him fucking go??" I bellowed, starting to approach the two. 'That bastard will hurt Hime the first chance he gets!' "You actually think he'll keep his bloody promise? People like him lie all the fucking time!!"
Another voice entered our argument. "I won't . . . disagree with the brat . . ." Kage rasped, getting back on his feet. I quickly changed my stance, ready to dodge his shadows. "Swearing I won't kill the girl . . . won't help you . . . I will destroy all the madougu . . . as well as Sakoshita . . ."
'This bastard won't learn~'
Kage suddenly took out his madougu, which began to glow. "Koganei!!" I shouted. "Get the hell away from him!!" I formed a flame on my arm and rushed towards the two. Koganei, who was staring at the orb, was surrounded by shadows and when they dissipated, he was gone. "Koganei . . ." I stopped, staring at where my companion had knelt seconds earlier.
"Kaoru-kun . . ." Hime whispered, her eyes starting to fill with tears.
"What'd you do to Koganei, you bastard???" Domon bellowed, literally shaking the walls of Kaa-chan's house. "What the fuck did you do to him??" Shadow coughed again then I could swear he smirked.
"He's gone."
"GONE??" Once again, I knew the bastard smirked at Domon's reaction. The gorilla sensed it also, amazingly for him, and he bellowed while he threw the kuchibashio at Kage. The madougu was blasted away by a wave of darkness emitted from Kage's hand, sending it flying across the room and smashing a hole in the wooden walls.
Splinters and chunks of wood flew through the air and I quickly moved to block them from hitting Hime. "Daijobu deska, Hime?" She looked up and nodded, brushing the tears out of her eyes quickly.
"I'm fine Recca-kun . . ." I grinned at her and started to get up when Fuuko and Mikagami dashed by me, their madougu's at the ready.
"Recca! Stay back and we'll handle this guy!" Fuuko shouted, looking back quickly with a big grin on her face.
"Protect Yanagi-san." Mikagami said, not turning around.
"Urusai Mikagami!" I shouted back at him, making a fist. "I'd protect Hime even if you didn't ask! Ahou!" I gritted my teeth and stood up, ready to protect her from any of that bastard's attacks.
(Koganei's POV)
My legs felt weak and I sat down panting, sweat running down my face. 'Damndamn . . . dammit!! This place doesn't go anywhere!!' I thought, quickly wiping off the sweat with my shirt. "I've been running for bloody hours! Where the hell is everyone??" I dropped kougon anki and flopped onto my back, still breathing hard.
"Its like a night sky . . ." I murmured to the darkness surrounding me. I sweatdropped. "Well . . . one without any stars . . . or a moon . . ." I turned my head to look to the side. "Damn . . . why the hell is it so freakin' quiet??"
(Recca POV)
"Madoka!" I quickly wrote the character in the air and a shield formed, blocking the sudden flurry of shadow blades that had shot towards Hime. "Damn! Can't you guys get that bastard yet??" I shouted at my three friends who kept on being knocked back.
"Aren't you interested where your friend went?" Kage asked, creating a shield of shadows to block a blast from the fuujin. Mikagami glared coldly at the man then stabbed the ensui into the ground, sending icicles bursting through the ground towards Kage.
A growl began to form in the back of my throat as the man dodged the attack and sent back one of his own.
"To a world full of darkness. A place void of light. Where time goes faster than in our world." Kage said calmly, brushing his shirt off. "I hope he's enjoying himself there." The deadpan way the bastard said those words . . . pissed me off, pushed me off the brink.
"To let a bastard like you . . . fucking have your way . . . would be a fucking insult to the Hokage!!" I shouted, jumping to my feet and planting my feet. I wrote a character in the air. "Get the hell out've the way if you don't wanna get hit!" Fuuko, Domon, and even Mikagami scrambled out of the way as a one eyed dragon appeared behind me.
"Kokuu!!"
Multiple shadow blades flew at me but were obliterated against Madoka's shield. I looked up at the dragon hovering above me with his small orb clutched in one claw. 'Jiji . . . I bet you hate this bastard as much as me ne?'
(A/N: I know when recca tells da dragons to do a move . . . it has a name . . . I think its Nadare = dan en . . . saiha = ben en . . . have no clue wat kokuu's is . . .)
"Kokuu!!" I pointed towards Kage, who stood there, most likely smirking. I turned chibi and gave him a fanged grin. "You think I can't control him? Ne, Jiji, let's show him!"
(Koganei's POV)
It was hard . . . to think of anything with all this darkness pressing down on me, its weight heavy on every part of my body. 'I hope . . . everyone else is fine . . .' I thought, staring blankly at the sky. 'Is it the sky? Or am I laying with my face against the floor . . .'
I tried to sit up but my body didn't seem to be listening to me. 'Damn it . . . move . . . what's the point in sitting up . . . only going to be the same everywhere . . . Gomen Yanagi . . . I couldn't ~'
Bright light glared in my eyes as I dropped onto the wooden floor of Kagero's house. I blinked and heard the metallic clang of the kougon anki landing after me. I heard swearing and . . . familiar voices.
"Get back here bastard!!"
"Let him go, gorilla."
"Who're you calling a gorilla??"
"Kaoru-kun! Daijobu deska?"
I tried to cover my eyes from the glaring light but I couldn't move my arms; a numb sort of feeling had settled in me. I blinked as multiple people kneeled down next to me.
"Koganei! You okay?" Recca asked, whacking me on the shoulder lightly. I flinched then saw everyone's faces as my eyes adjusted to the light. There was even some worry on Mikagami's face.
"I'm fine . . ." I mumbled, attempting to sit up but failing miserably.
"You sure??" Domon shouted, going chibi. I sweatdropped and nodded slightly.
"Arigatou minna . . . Tadaima ne?"
