LEGACY OF KMAS CHAPTER 28
WRONGFULLY ACCUSSED
I had now come to floor ten and was anxious to see what Opal meant by Hell in this room. But the door was locked for some reason. The door itself was rather peculiar, it resonated with a crimson hue and I felt tremendous heat outpouring from it. I see that he wasn't kidding when he said Hell. I thought it best to forget about it and head upstairs. I went past the eleventh floor as well, since he said 10 and 11 we're the same. I now stood at the threshold to a level which Opal said were where the "truths that must be divulged" were. I entered with extreme caution.
EVENT: A SHOCKING DISCOVERY
TRACK: THE GREAT NORTHERN CAVE (FFVII)
The room was unguarded and all there were, were two experimental tables on each side of me. This was the Main Laboratory of the facility. Each one contained formulas and different substances aligned in a certain order. But at the end of the table I saw a giant tube which connected to the upper floor. These tubes were inside of a large beaker at the end of each table. It seemed that these two beakers contained the results of all the substances on each respective table, mixed together. I was anxious to see the results of these experiments and hurried to the next floor.
Unguarded as well this room was, as I entered the room carefully. What greeted me was a large ebony machine, and out of the machine jutted the same tubes I saw on the lower floors. No doubt this machine was used to properly mix the ingredients. I saw two nozzles on the machine, each which activated a certain tube. I cautiously followed the tubes which led to a table at the far end of the room and there laid a beaker and a test tube filled with a strange substance to their right were two books. I approached the table and tried to figure out what these substances were. The one in the beaker was an oozing green substance which bubbled like a boiling pot of water. I recognized this substance instantly, I knew what it was. This was the blood of the demi-god Ogre, who Jin Kazama, son of Kazuya had destroyed in the final round of the Iron Fist Tournament Three. But the other substance was very strange indeed. It was a crimson substance that bubbled in black foam. I was rather curious as to what this substance was. I thought perhaps one of the books could tell me more. I picked up the first book, which was entitled, "My Quest for Lucifer's Blood" green in color and began to read.
"What a glorious day! My researchers were able to gather enough material for the experiments needed. Thank god my good for nothing grandson didn't destroy Ogre completely, otherwise I'd be no where. At least he's out of my hair. One less mouth to feed! Soon I will be able to breed an army undefeatable by any man or weapon! Indeed it is a glorious day"
-Heihachi Mishima
"So this tells how Heihachi obtained Ogre's blood and DNA, perhaps there's more to discover what that other substance is" I thought as I flipped through the pages and stumbled upon another statement.
"Of all the rotten luck! I should've known my idiot son would not have been taken out that easily! My Tekken Force couldn't even do the simple job of subduing him! There has to be a way to obtain the Devil Gene. There has to be a way to lure both Jin and Kazuya to me…That's it…the King of the Iron Fist is the key! Those fools can not resist the urge to beat me or each other. One of them have to show up…an then victory will be mine!"
-Heihachi Mishima
"Well that explains why the King of Iron Fist 4 was held, but I know all this stuff already" I said as I flipped to the end of the book. The last page was three words in big bold letters
"I'VE DONE IT!"
-Heihachi Mishima
"Oh for the love of God!" I said as I picked up the second book. "Now this may help!" I said as I picked up a violet book entitled "The Creation of the Super Soldiers" I began to read and skim. Most of it was all scientific mumbo jumbo. But I saw a passage that caught my eye…and shattered whatever was left of my assumptions.
"Upon a fatal wound the super soldier is activated. Subjects show no sign of pain or remorse. Rejuvenation factor is astounding! Strength, stamina and dexterity increase by 100 to 300%! Remarkable! It was better then I could hope for! I've done it! I've finally created the ultimate soldier. I've finally achieved the results of what happened when Jin and Kazuya met there end! I've obtained Lucifer's Blood! The world is mine for the taking…all I need now is numbers, enough soldiers to bring the world under my hand. But where to get such numbers, and how? I'll have to think long on that one"
-Heihachi Mishima
"………………………………....................................................................................................................................................................................Of course…………………………Now I understood! How could I have been so blind! Jin was shot directly in the skull, and body, no regular human could survive that! My God Kazuya was thrown into a volcano and survived a regular human would have incinerated before it ever hit the lava. But Kazuya and Jin were not regular humans. They had one thing that made them that way…the Devil Gene. Heihachi has had the Devil Gene all along. That's why the super soldiers rose from the dead. Heihachi spliced them with the gene! But how did he get it in the first place. JIN! Heihachi had Jin in his possession before the fight with Kazuya at the Iron Fist Tournament 4! He could have easily taken Jin's blood while he was out. Bu if Heihachi already had the Devil Gene, why did he need me? What was so important about what I possessed? What did I have that Kazuya, Mo and Jin did not? No it couldn't be…"
I had my doubts that Heihachi had the Devil Gene. I had to make sure. I took a drop of the red substance and placed it on my glove. Then I took my dagger and lightly cut my finger and let some blood ooze out of the small wound. I took a long look at my blood and gave it a sniff. It didn't smell like human blood obviously but if the substance on my glove smelled the same then it was definitely a match. I leaned over carefully to get the scent of the substance when a voice screamed out behind me…
(End Event)
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" a female voice screamed out.
I spun around and saw Saiyan Rage staring in shock at my bleeding hand which was, unintentionally held over the vial.
"You TRAITOR!"
"No! It's not like that I swear!" I pleaded
"You are giving Heihachi the Devil Gene! I knew you were nothing but scum!" she accused
"I'm telling you that is not what happened!"
"I don't want to hear it! You've sold out your own friends, the world and Kazuya! Now I'm gonna take you out myself!"
EVENT: DEVILKAZ VS. SAIYAN RAGE
TRACK: ENCHANTED BANQUET (Castlevania: Symphony of the Night)
Saiyan Rage came at me and kicked me into the table and then grabbed me by the throat and flung me into a wall. I tried reasoning again. But she wouldn't listen as she put her foot to my face and thrusted a knife edge palm into my chest. She took the opportunity to slap me in the face and using the side of her leg to knock me down on the floor. All the while I pleaded for her to listenIt was quite clear that I was not fighting back. I had absolutely no reason to! Until…
"Come on DevilKaz! Stop being a pansy and fight back!"
"Very well! If this will make you see reason!" I flung my trench coat to the side and assumed a fighting stance.
She came at me again with a kick but I grabbed it this time and through it to the side. She then tried a few punches but I deflected them. I was only fighting defensively, I'm all for a good fight but not one for the wrong reasons! She came with another knife edge, but I quickly stepped to the side and swept legs from under her. As she lay on the floor, I unsheathed the Reaver, for the sole purpose of making her listen.
"Now listen to me! I found two books explaining how Heihachi obtained the Devil Gene! I was merely comparing my blood to that substance to see if it was indeed true!"
"You expect me to believe that? That's the biggest lump of bullshit I ever heard".
"Please you must trust me! I had no intention of betraying you or anyone!"
"I don't believe you!"
"WHY?! What is so difficult to understand?"
"Nothing, except you are lying and now you'll pay for all your deceit!"
"What are you gonna do? I have the Reaver at your throat and your defenseless!"
"Am I?" I saw her violet eyes glance past me and I spun around to see a bolt of lightning go right into me. I must have been jolted with at least 300 volts of energy. I saw Jo who had made the attack walk forward.
"Give him another one Jo, he seems to like it!" Saiyan said.
And Jo did just that only a at more powerful! After writhing in agony I felt myself being lifted off the floor and a familiar power entered the room! It was a power of soul stealing a power which I possessed. A power which was now being turned against me. I was engulfed in a violet haze and Saiyan's eyes flashed a similar hue.
"You see DevilKaz! I have the power of soul stealing as well! But you see I thought need a little toy to do it!"
"I'M TELLING YOU YOUR MAKING A MISTAKE!" I pleaded one last time!
"The only mistake I made was allowing you to even breathe when I met you! Farewell DevilKaz!"
There was but one way out of this, but it was of gargantuan rsk and probably doomed to failure but I tried it anyway. I felt myself being completely torn from existence. I saw Saiyan Rage yank her arm back and I saw a shade being pulled from my own body. And with one final pull, the soul was torn from my body and shattered before my very eyes. My lifeless body hit the ground and joined the shards of the soul as well…
(End Event)

"Killer as always Saiyan" Jo remarked.
"Jo go and make sure the rest of KMAS are alright. I'll go face Heihachi myself" Saiyan instructed.
"You got it!" As she descended the staircase Saiyan Rage went over to DevilKaz's corpse.
"Nothing personal, it's just I can't have anything happen to Kazuya. See you in Hell Traitor!"
And with that she ascended the stairs.
