Reader's Note
This story is set after Bloody Roar 3, but before Bloody Roar 4. Some parts of the story may (in order to understand) require you to have played Bloody Roar 3. The story is written as if Yugo defeated Xion, and Kenji gave the Tabula to Gado.
Reader's Note
Side Note: The Goku reference was as in television show(Yugo watches cartoons). I thought it would be funny.
Chapter Three-Enter Vertigo
Eddy and Stoic flew across the battlefield. The angel aimed his cannon at Eddy, and just as it charged Eddy kicked it away. The panther launched a volley of punches and kicks, dominating Stoic with his speed. An explosion suddenly came from Yugo's house. "Alice!", Yugo yelled as he ran as fast as he could. Kenji looked at Long, "Uriko's in trouble".
Long looked back at Stoic and Eddy, "What about them?".
"Don't worry about me", Eddy shouted from a hurricane of attacks, "I got this under control".
Kenji and Long followed Yugo. Within minuets they were at the house. Outside, Gado was lying against a tree. Long ran beside him, "Gado? Are you OK?". His eyes were closed, but he was breathing. Kenji and Yugo went inside to help Uriko and Alice. Alice ran to Yugo, "Did you see him?". Yugo looked puzzled, "Who!".
Uriko interrupted, "The angel, he took the Tabula. Gado tried to fight him, but his injuries...".
"What do you mean? The angel was here?", Kenji asked just as confused as Yugo.
"Impossible", Yugo argued, "We were fighting him when we heard the explosion".
Long walked in, "We've been fighting the wrong angel".
Both Yugo and Kenji looked at him, "What?"
"We have to go, he's got the Tabula", Long went back outside.
Kenji followed as Uriko tried to stop him, "No! Please Kenji, don't go".
He turned to face her, "Uriko, I have to. If we don't stop him we'll all die. I can't lose you". Kenji embraced her, "I've lost too much already".
Uriko began to cry, "Kenji...".
He looked her in the eyes, his arms still around her, "How do you think your mother would feel if you were gone? Me, I don't have a family. No one will miss me when I'm gone".
Uriko held him close as possible, "What are you saying! Your family is right here. We'll miss you, all of us.".
Long broke in, "If we don't go now, it will be too late".
"OK, I'm ready". Kenji hesitantly let go of Uriko, "I'll be back. I promise".
Professor's Log: 157
Tylon is done for. Dr. Busuzima's radical vison has warped the minds of my former allys. They will turn on me, and destroy everything I've worked for. Busuzima is doing expiriments on his own co-workers. He says he can turn a Human into a Zoanthrope. I heard that he was going to try it on Dr. Steven Goldberg, his new assistant. I will not let my legacy become trash. I intend to escape this insane asylum that was formerly one of the greatest laboratories in the world. (Censored by Tylon) says he will help me escape, but he must stay. I think he has become attatched to the children, after all he's their father. Even if their clones, they still need a father. I can only hope that Busuzima will let them alone...
Yugo, Kenji, and Long arrived at the battlefield. There was nothing there. The only person in sight was Eddy, lying on the ground. Kenji ran to him. "Eddy? Eddy?", he shook him franticly, "Eddy! Come on don't do this!". Kenji hung his head and broke down.
Long put his hand on Kenji's shoulder, "I'm sorry. All I can say is that your friends will always be with you".
"This is my fault. I should have stayed. I got my best friend killed. I got my brother killed. Anyone who gets close to me gets hurt or killed", Kenji said with his head still down, and crying.
"Nonsense!", Long shot back, "You can't blame yourself for everything thats happened. If you can't see that, then your out of hope".
Yugo looked around, "Where's Xion? He was here, he could have helped Eddy".
A pile of rubble suddenly exploded into the air. Out from the debri came Xion. He dusted his coat off. Yugo got tense, "Why did'nt you help Eddy!".
Xion raised an eyebrow in disgust, "I did all I could. I killed Stoic, but...Vertigo. He's a different story."
Long walked over to Xion, "Vertigo? Is that the name of the-".
"Legendary Fallen Angel?", Xion interrupted, "Yes it is."
Kenji looked up from his friends body, "How do you know all of this?".
"Heaven and Hell are exact opposites. For every angel there's a demon. They are complete mirrors of each other, and twisted mirrors at that. Some of the angels and demons live here on Earth. Most of them are'nt a threat. When Vertigo The Infinite, also an Arc Angel, turned on paradise, he was thrown onto Earth. This caused the soul of his opposite to rise to Earth as well. That's the soul that lives inside me. The one I share this body with. The Unborn. With the Tabula, Vertigo has reclaimed all of his original power. Vertigo is the opposite of me. Now he wants to destroy the planet. I don't know why, it won't really help".
"So your a demon?", Kenji asked
Xion cracked his neck, "Yeah. I'm a demon, and I'm the only one with any chance of even fighting Vertigo".
Kenji stood up, "Xion, If your thinking about fighting Vertigo I'm with you".
"Kid, your going to get yourself killed", Xion replied.
"He's right", Long added.
Yugo crossed his arms, "I bet I can take on Vertigo".
"I bet you can't", Xion remarked sitting on the rubble.
"Well, I beat you!", Yugo shot back.
Xion stood up. "I'm not going to sit right here and let the planet be destroyed", he said sarcasticly. He walked down what used to be a street.
"I'm going too", Kenji followed Xion.
"Kenji stop right now!", Yugo commanded.
Kenji turned back and snapped, "He killed my brother! He killed my friend! I'm not going to watch him kill one of you!", Kenji halfway turned back, "If anyone else dies it's going to be me. Long, please take care of the others. I beg you".
