Canon 27

Previously on Canon Distortion

Sora Minakaze is searching for the truth, the truth as to why he is currently being erased from the world. In order to find the answers, he turns to the girl who saved his girlfriend from a fate that would have been worse than death, Rachel Alucard. As soon as she finds her and he asks her questions however, she decides to pose a simple test for him. A test that involves Ragna the Bloodedge for some reason. Having no choice and needing answers, Sora accepts the challenge and proceeds to steel himself for the challenge ahead.

And now, the continuation of Canon Distortion

'This is what I had not had in mind...' Sora thought as he stood in the middle of the street, stretching his wrist with a few flicks as he looked at Ragna and Rachel preparing themselves for the test ahead. Sora had thought that Rachel was going to be the more graceful and diplomatic type. The last thing he expected out of a little girl was to test him using a more physical method. 'Just why is she even testing me in the first place? Is she doubting my intentions or trying to figure me out?' Sora wondered as Ragna himself stretched a few times while waiting for Rachel to give the rules.

"So... are you going to give us the rules already rabbit questioned?" Ragna questioned as Rachel herself was enjoying her seat. Where she got that seat was still a question for Sora as he did not see her bring it with her in the first place. "Well now, getting a bit antsy I see. Well that is understandable." Rachel said as she stood up, surprising Sora as he soon saw the chair become a gigantic cat as his eyes blinked a few times when she did that.

'How...How did I focus so much to miss a giant cat transforming into a chair.' Sora said as he shook his head, deciding that was not important right now as he needed to focus on what was in front of him instead as he decided to listen carefully to the rules Rachel was going to give him. "The rules of this test are going to be very simple. You are to try and touch me where I currently stand. The mongrel will do everything in his power to stop you."

As soon as Sora heard the rules, he couldn't help but blink. That's it? All he has to do to get his answers is to just run past Ragna and then touch the little girl. "Woah wait a minute rabbit, when you mean everything, you don't mean I can use force now." Ragna said as Sora's eyes blinked at that. Ragna was right about that, he could just use a shit ton of force to stop him. And that was when it clicked in Sora's mind just how fucked up the test in front of him really is.

"Am I allowed to harm Ragna if I have no choice?" Sora questioned, surprising Ragna that he would ask such a question as he would have thought that Sora would have incapacitated him just to make reaching Rachel easier. After all, that would have been what he would do if he was in this situation as Rachel giggled in amusement. "If you can avoid incapacitating the man, I will throw in a bonus to your question." Rachel said as that was what Sora needed to hear to at least justify the lack of a need to harm Ragna right now.

"Then let's get this started already. I've got to head back to meet up with her soon and I don't have time to waste right now." Sora said as he tensed his legs, getting ready to spring into action as Ragna himself scratched his head. "Just how on Earth do I keep getting myself dragged into these situations." Ragna wondered out loud as Sora began to quickly formulate a plan of attack to pass this test as he knew he had to at least map things out in his mind.

'If I use my drive I will be able to pass the test easily... but that may drain more energy out of me and I may need that for later.' Sora thought, rationalizing that usage of his drive will make it easier to pass the test laid out in front of him but it would leave him drained of energy he might need later for more fights. 'If I can minimize the amount of movement and energy I waste then I should be ready for whatever is going to be thrown my way.' Sora thought as he looked around to see what he could use to his advantage.

'A dumpster, a couple of broken furniture and a few lamp poles... looks like I can scale my way out of Ragna's way and try to place myself in between him and the girl. If I can do that at least it's got to be easier.' Sora thought as he took a couple of deep breathes to focus his mind on the task ahead of him. Right in front of him is the number 1 most wanted criminal in the world and while he is definitely a dangerous foe, he knows absolutely nothing about him other than he uses a unique sword that has the ability to shift into a scythe.

"If you two are ready… the test shall commence." Rachel said but silence greeted the three. Rachel had expected the two to immediately begin fighting. Or at the very least, Ragna to make the first move by charging forward immediately as he normally would. But for once, nothing was happening and this was a surprise to her as she could feel the stillness of the air hitting her right now. Sora and Ragna seemed content to simply just stare at each other to deadlock as they placed their hands on their respective weapons, ready to draw them at a moment's notice.

'Right…. Make your move...' Ragna thought as his eyes glared right at Sora's direction. 'Come at me right now… and let's make this quick.' Ragna thought some more as he tensed up his legs, ready to spring into action should the time come but Sora was remaining vigilant and still. He was not going to move a single muscle. In fact, Sora's eyes were doing more moving than his whole body as Ragna practiced patience for once and didn't move as well as a result.

Sora meanwhile was simply content with staring right at Ragna… at least until he saw his chance to act as a can slowly rolled up to his feet. As soon as it came to a stop, Ragna saw Sora raise his leg, about to kick the can as his attention was drawn to the can at that moment. As soon as his eyes left his gaze of Sora's top body however, Sora immediately released his grip on the Rev Blade and tossed right at Ragna's way the broken hilt, forcing Ragna to react by blocking and causing it to drop to the ground.

As he lowered his guard to take a look, the can that he was looking at before came flying right for his face, smacking him dead on as he heard footsteps right to his side. "OH NO YOU DON'T!" Ragna shouted as he raised his blade to try and trip Sora, managing to clip him by his feet and forcing Sora to recover as Ragna immediately placed himself between Sora and Rachel once more as Sora shook his head before getting back to his stance.

'At least he has good reactions… but I know he's not that fast.' Sora thought as he grabbed the Rev Blade and swung it to the ground, revving it as Ragna still couldn't help but scratch the itch that he was feeling. Why was a one armed person like Sora even using a weapon like the Rev Blade in the first place? Without a second hand, he wouldn't be able to swing that heavy piece of iron at it's full potential. So there had to be a trick with it to warrant the man carrying it.

Meanwhile Sora was more focused in trying to figure out what Ragna was capable of so he would be able to exploit a weakness he might be able to see. Running towards Ragna again, this time Sora incorporated zig zagging to his movements, trying to put Ragna out of balance as he swayed his body into the motion, allowing him to move in an even more erratic pattern. As soon as he came close, he immediately twirled around Ragna, trying to slip past him but the man was not going to have any of it and grabbed Sora by his collar.

"Not this time kid!" Ragna yelled, tossing Sora to the ground before picking him up quickly from the ground and kicking Sora in the stomach, getting flung back in the process as Sora quickly recovered from that, shaking his head as he felt the kick from that one. Sora had no time to recover from that as he saw Ragna sweep down the ground with his blade, creating what seemed to be a black wave of seithr ripping through the ground as a massive head came out of the ground.

"DEAD SPIKE!" Ragna shouted as the massive head swam through the ground right towards Sora's direction, forcing him to dodge out of the way as the massive head slammed itself onto a wall, splattering all over it and returning back to the black like mass it was before as Sora's eyes widened a little by that. "What the hell was that?" Sora said out loud, registering that he had just witnessed something that most people would not have had the pleasure of seeing as he looked right back at Ragna with a seriousness in his eyes.

"Looks like you really are bringing out the big guns Ragna The Bloodedge." Sora said as Ragna simply kept his focus and ignored the comment tossed his way. "Oh don't worry about me. I don't plan on holding back even though we just met. It would be rude to do so." Ragna said as Sora chuckled a little bit, cracking his neck in the process as he knew he had to pick up the pace otherwise Ragna would simply stall him out for way too long.

"Then it looks like I need to pick up the pace a little bit more." Sora said as he tensed up his legs and gripped the Rev Blade tightly, making sure it was secure on his hand before he sprinted right for Ragna. Ragna, not content with letting Sora dictate the offense, decided to meet him head on, both readying themselves to clash with each other. Ragna raised his blade up to brace for impact while Sora did the same with his but angled it so that when their blades clashed, Ragna's slid upwards, exposing just a bit of his chin.

It was at that moment that Sora released a kick, knocking him by the head and sending him to the side as Sora quickly ran past Ragna once more. He knew the objective well. It was not Ragna he should be focusing on but instead Rachel as if he can just touch her even once, this whole charade of a test will be over as he was also trying to get the bonus of not knocking Ragna out to hopefully squeeze out as much information as possible from the Gothic girl.

But Ragna was not going to let that happen as he gritted his teeth. "NOT SO FAST!" Ragna shouted as he tossed another dead spike to Sora's way, forcing him to dodge once more. But it was in the middle of his dodge that Sora felt it, the feeling of a distortion finish triggering as Ragna arched his back forwards, cocking the blade up before charging up a massive wave of seithr into the blade. All Sora knew at that moment was that he better had his guard up otherwise this was not going to be good.

"CARNAGE!" Ragna yelled as he moved quickly with the Aramasa, slamming the tip of the blade right into the Rev Blade's guard. Sora recoiled from impact, struggling to keep his guard up as Ragna slowly pulled up, a massive wave of seithr swimming right behind him as his eyes glowed red at that moment. "SCISSORS!" As the wave of seithr formed a massive head, threatening to bite Sora whole as Sora lost his footing on the ground before crashing right onto the wall of the restaurant, coughing out blood in the process.

As soon as Sora managed to stabilize himself, he quickly refocused his gaze onto Ragna the Bloodedge once more as he felt the pain coursing through his body from that one attack. Even though he was guarding it the amount of force packed into it was enough to send him flying. Just what would have happened if he had eaten the real thing without guarding? "No one you are considered the number 1 most wanted criminal..." Sora said as he wiped the blood flowing out of his mouth as Ragna sighed.

"Give it up kid. Even I don't need to fight for long enough to see that you are outmatched the way you are." Ragna said as Sora shook his head at that. "Come on Ragna… That's being harsh now. Especially since I am trying to not knock you out." Sora said as this made Ragna raise his eyebrow up in surprise. Rachel herself couldn't help but raise her eyebrow at that, intrigued by the boy's words as Ragna decided that more clarification was needed.

Ragna: Not knock me out? Are you kidding me? You know that's just a trick that the rabbit is saying to limit how hard you can hit right?

Sora: So?

Ragna: If you can go all out then why not just go all out right now and get it over with. We don't have to waste time if you do so.

Sora: Well sorry I am wasting your time Sir. But I can't really afford to burn myself out and rest up when there can be more fights later in the day. I need to make sure I am all topped up for what's to come.

Ragna: And waste our time holding back? Come on, I can tell that trying to hold back like you are right now is seriously preventing you from fighting all out.

"It is my own business if I choose to hold back… besides, don't you want to end this sooner so you can do your own thing? Why are you even wasting your time talking to me like this and not trying to finish me?" Sora taunted, angering Ragna a bit at the bull headed taunt thrown his way as Ragna scoffed. "Oh really now. Looks like you just signed your own death warrant. Sorry rabbit, but this guy ain't talking to you anytime soon." Ragna said as he charged towards Sora, the first time he ever did so as Rachel noticed the glint in Sora's eyes.

'The fool fell for the bait.' Rachel simply thought as Ragna swung his blade, leaving Sora to block it as Ragna tried to throw a punch right into Sora's gut while his guard was exposed. It was logical since he had one arm and couldn't exactly grab it at that moment but as soon as he thought that he felt his blade go through, throwing the momentum of his punch off as he swung with his arms crossed before being met with a swift counter to his face.

Ragna then saw what Sora had done. He had released his grip on the weapon and swung back with his fist. He willingly dropped his own weapon for the chance to land a hit despite the disadvantage it would put him at as he kicked Ragna in the stomach to create some distance, allowing him to pick up the Rev Blade. "But you are right about one thing. Maybe I should loosen up just a bit." Sora said as he changed the Rev Blade into the Rev Arm in front of Ragna's eyes, bewildering him greatly as he did not expect the sword to do something like that.

"OH NO YOU DON'T!" Ragna yelled, realizing that Sora was going to attach the Rev Arm to the stump of his arm and was determined to stop him from doing so. Sora however, familiar with the trick of opponents stopping him from attaching the arm and trying to stop him had a simply trick of stopping his foes from doing so as he tossed the Rev Arm right at Ragna's face, bonking him in surprise as the Rev Arm flew into the air.

This disorientated the white haired man as his red and green eyes strained to keep focus on Sora who he had allowed to disappear from his sight. 'Dammit! Where did he…!' As if by instinct, Ragna looked up to see Sora soaring in the sky, probably using the fact that the arm disorientated him to jump into the air and attach the Rev Arm to his stump of an arm as Sora coiled his back and revved the handle once.

"ENHANCED GEAR!" The Rev Arm yelled as Ragna knew he had to dodge as Sora slammed his fist where Ragna stood, cratering the ground in the process. "Saikuron'inpakuto!" Sora yelled as Ragna was left on his ass as Sora pulled the Rev Arm out of the small crater it had made. "So maybe it's time for me to ramp things up a small notch to end this." Sora said as he flicked the wrist of the Rev Arm a few times to warm himself up for the challenge ahead.

"You son of a bitch." Ragna sweared as Rachel couldn't help but chuckle in delight. "Well things are starting to become interesting now. Mind if I join in on the fun for now?" Rachel said, surprising both Ragna and Sora as the two men looked at her with some confusion as to what her plan was. "It is just seeing you two fight the way you are right now is intriguing. And also I wish to see Mr Minakaze combat potential for myself." Rachel explained as Sora couldn't help but sigh at that.

He was already about to pick up the pace with Ragna the Bloodedge, now that he had to fight against this little girl and he doesn't know what she is capable of? Just another day in the Minakaze life where life seems to be after him for some reason. "I don't mind… I just did not expect this happening right now." Sora said as Rachel got off her seat and the cat re-manifested itself as to it's normal self.

"Be glad I am providing support for you Ragna the Bloodedge. You should be weeping by now." Rachel said as Ragna scratched his head at the comment. "Look I don't really care what you do… but just don't get in my way alright rabbit." Ragna said as Rachel simply giggled hearing that, eager to start testing Sora as soon as possible as Sora simply cracked his neck before returning to stance. 'Don't focus on fighting Sora, just focus on getting past Ragna and touching the girl.' Sora thought as Ragna made the first move once more.

With a quick punch, Ragna forced Sora to push it to the side as he used the hilt of the Aramasa and aimed for Sora's forehead. Sora himself managed to avoid getting hit by grabbing Ragna's wrist with the Rev Arm and tossing the attack to the side. As he did so, he gave Ragna a push to the side to offset his balance and charge for Rachel, the gap now open as Rachel herself was prepared to make getting to her much harder.

"Very good. Let us see if you can handle this. Gil, Nago." Rachel said as her two familiars appeared. "As you command princess!" Her familiars said as the cat turned itself into a cannon and the red bat loaded itself into said cannon. "Now fire." Rachel said as Nago fired Gill as it went flying towards Sora. Sora out of instinct, grabbed the projectile using the Rev Arm. As soon as he did, he looked at the projectile he had caught and became puzzled.

The projectile he had caught was not a circular object like a cannon ball but what appeared to be a red bat shaped crest that had gold trim on them. The projectile the cat cannon fired was weird enough but the weird projectile was soon pushed to the back of his mind when he noticed that the projectile started to gather electricity as he quickly tossed it away from him as he noticed Rachel float from the ground before opening her eyes and summoning out what appeared to be lightning from the sky right at the projectile he had just tossed.

"Oh do be careful Mr Minakaze. The projectiles Nago fires out can be electrically charged. I have seen some people who have had the misfortune of experiencing it's fury." Rachel explained as Sora shivered hearing that, not wanting to experience lightning coursing through his body as he simply put his foot to the pedal and sprinted right towards Rachel, hoping that was it. As he did so, Rachel snapped her fingers, alerting Nago to continuously fire a series of projectiles and scattered them all over the floor.

"With that warning, let us begin." Rachel said, snapping her fingers once more as various bolts of lightning came crashing to the ground, scattering itself all over the ground thanks to the projectiles placed that forced Sora to simply change the route that he had to take, forced to use the path that Rachel had created for him as it felt like he was going through several forks through a road or navigating a pile up at some freeway.

'Got to get closer… got to get closer!' Sora thought as he narrowed his focus towards finding the straightest path possible. It was when he noticed that Nago had stopped firing for a bit, he made a break for it, sprinting quickly forwards as Nago managed to fire a shot at the last minute aimed right for Sora. Raising the Rev Arm once again, he grabbed the projectile that Nago had fired as this time, now knowing what he knew, he decided to take advantage of the lightning and turn it to his favor.

"Nago, Gil. Let's do it." Rachel said as she slowly floated herself off the air. As soon as she did, Sora immediately tossed the projectile right back at Rachel. But the projectile did not hit her as that was where he did not aim the projectile to hit but instead it struck Nago himself as the lightning came coursing down and striking the familiars, zapping them well before making them collapse in shock as Rachel was amused by this.

"I GOT YOU!" Sora yelled as he jumped into the air, raising his arm, ready to touch her. As soon as he did so however, he felt something strange hit him. A stillness that he could not explain as his body felt like it had suddenly become a rock. He raised his arm out trying to touch Rachel but it was like the wind suddenly picked up and stopped him from doing so. 'What...What the fuck!?' Sora thought as he felt a presence suddenly approach him from behind as Ragna had transformed the Aramasa into it's scythe form.

"Don't forget about me!" Ragna shouted, swinging the Aramasa in a circular manner as Sora had to take an emergency roll to the side to avoid being sliced in half. Just what had happened? It felt like the wind had come to a complete stop when he tried to move. Sora had no time to let his mind linger on stuff like that because Ragna was now attacking him, forcing him to dodge as he really had no intentions of trying to attack back and was only fighting back to stop Ragna from fighting.

Even if he wanted to take some higher moral ground and just let Ragna hit him what was going to be the point? He would suffer unnecessary damage and get hurt for something that might not even be possible. While it is important to try and end things as peacefully as you can, Sora has learned over the years it shouldn't come at the cost of your own well being except for when you know you have to go all out. And right now it is not the right time for Sora to go all out.

"Oh don't worry. I haven't forgotten about you Ragna." Sora said as he raised the Rev Arm to block Ragna's next series of attacks, even pushing a few to the side and striking Ragna at the chest and face to try and condition Ragna into adopting a less risky play style. All Sora could do at this moment was just use as much of his ability as he can while trying to hold back for an emergency as he managed to find the space needed to palm strike Ragna away from him.

But again, Sora could feel the winds acting strangely as Ragna did not get blown as far as Sora would have liked. In fact, Ragna barely moved at all as he was already in range to swing a counter punch right at Sora's face, forcing Sora to dodge a possible knockout blow from out on nowhere. "And I do hope you have not forgotten about me too Mr Minakaze." Rachel said as Sora couldn't help but start to suspect that she was somehow responsible for the wind and the way it was currently behaving.

"Thanks for the assist rabbit. Now can you just keep doing that for now?" Ragna said as that confirmed Sora's suspicion that Rachel was somehow manipulating the wind around her. The how was still something that eluded Sora but he did not care right now, he needed to focus on the fight ahead of him as he pushed Ragna's attack to the side once more before trying to make a break for Rachel. But Rachel was one step ahead of him and had fired a projectile right at Sora's face, causing it to hit him and allowing Ragna to grab the back of his shirt and toss him back to face him.

As he did so, Ragna tried to go for a ground stab. Sora managed to roll his head away from the attack and kicked Ragna away from him as Sora couldn't help but start to feel the odds were starting to get away from him. He could choose to switch things and start using his drive but he knew he still had time to try and not resort to that. He didn't need to do something as excessive at that as he got up his feet and decided instead to mix up his attacks.

As soon as Ragna swung his sword, Sora immediately raised the Rev Arm to block the attack. As soon as he did so, he quickly changed it back to the Rev Blade and swung wide, creating distance between him and Ragna as he quickly sheathed the blade and ran fast to past Ragna while his balance was still off. As soon as Ragna saw this, he changed the Aramasa to it's scythe form to try and use the blunt edge of the blade to trip Sora up.

As soon as Sora felt the blade touch his feet, he immediately raised it up, tipping himself forward and was about to make him fall on his ass. As soon as that was going to happen, Sora immediately swapped the Rev Blade back to the Rev Arm to do a perfect roll and recovery. As soon as he recovered, he immediately kicked the scythe back at Ragna, causing the blade to strike him and distracting him long enough for Sora to make his way right at Rachel's face once again.

But Rachel had not been idle, having laid a series of traps ready for Sora to spring them the moment he took a step on them. Sora however ignored the traps placed in front of him, jumping past them to dodge the lightning that was slowly surrounding him. Rachel then decided to make it even harder for Sora by using her wind to blow some of the already placed traps right at Sora's face, trying to surprise him as simultaneously unleashed lightning that would have struck anybody if he did not dodge correctly.

"I GOT YOU! AGAIN!" Sora yelled as he immediately dived forwards, having noticed that Rachel was too busy trying to summon lightning and wind at the same time that she had exposed her flank. He raised his hand, ready to touch her but Rachel herself was not done as she floated herself off the ground, alarming him when he heard the sounds of a distortion drive activate as Rachel simply smiled.

"Baden-Baden Lily." Rachel simply said with a calm grace on her voice as lightning exploded right on her, forcing Sora to touch it as the lightning coursed through his veins like no other, causing him to fly all the way back to the wall where he had started. Sora wanted to swear badly at that moment as the lightning left his body, his clothes slightly charred as Ragna looked at Rachel at that moment. "Don't you think that was a little too extreme rabbit?" Ragna asked as Rachel simply smiled.

"If I were not as forceful, then that shows that Mr Minakaze is not worthy of learning the truth." Rachel said, annoying Sora as he couldn't help but feel like he was blind sided by her at that moment. 'God if you weren't the key to me learning about the mess I was in...' Before Sora could finish his thought, his phone began to ring. This prompted him to pick it up and see who it was calling him at that very moment.

For him to see that it was Makoto that was calling him in that moment alarmed him as that meant she wanted to know something. "Give me a second." He said to Ragna and Rachel as he answered the call without hesitation. "Hello Makoto? What's going on?" Sora questioned as Makoto breathed a sigh of relief on her end. "Oh it's nothing. I'm just letting you know that we are at the spot I said that we should meet up. Just wondering how is your search for Rachel going?" Makoto questioned as Sora sighed and smiled.

Sora: It's going well. I found her actually

Makoto: Really!? What...What did you ask her?

Sora: Well I asked her how Hunter is doing and she said she's taking care of him… other than that, she's currently testing me to see if I am worthy to know about what's going on

Makoto: A test? Why is she even doing a test all of the sudden

Sora: I don't know and I honestly don't care. All I want to do is just complete this already so I can go and see you. I can't help but get worried for you right now.

As Sora conversed with Makoto, Ragna and Rachel simply observed him, noticing that his formerly raised guard was now lowered a bit, as if hinting how close he was to the person he was conversing with. "Aww, thanks for the concern Sora. But I can assure you that..." Makoto paused and that pause gave Sora something to worry about as he himself didn't say anything, fearing something was going on. "I got to go now Sora… something came up. Just meet up with me at the spot like we promised." Makoto said before abruptly ending the call.

"Makoto?!" Sora said, raising his voice at the sudden turn of events as he noticed that Makoto had ended the call for some reason. This was enough to make him want to end this charade of a test as soon as possible as he stared right at Ragna and Rachel with a focus on his eyes. "Come on you two, give me everything you got. I got to go now and I am not going to waste anymore time." Sora said, his voice now serious as his gut was telling him to end this test quickly.

"Look man. You can tell us what's..." but before Ragna could finish his sentence, Sora had already appeared in front of him, alarming both him and Rachel as he was just standing by the wall before hand. How did he suddenly appear right in front of Ragna with no warning as he gave Ragna a backhand slap with his normal fist to create some distance as Rachel wasted no time and continued to fire projectiles right at his way.

Without even blinking this time around and with something on the line, Sora simply changed the Rev Arm back to the Rev Blade and swatted a few of the projectiles to the side. As he did so he swung the Rev Blade back to his back as Ragna tried to attack him from behind using his fist, clanging with metal instead as he used the momentum to hurl the Rev Blade right at Rachel's feet, much to her chagrin at the barbarism in display in front of her.

But she had no time to speak of such barbarism as Sora was quickly making his way towards her, his focus fully in display as Ragna managed to place himself between him and Rachel in the process. "STOP RIGHT THERE!" Ragna shouted as he quickly gathered Seithr right into his arm, ready to grab Sora with it but Sora was not fazed. In fact his eyes were that of a calm storm as in front of both him and Rachel, he began to flicker for a bit.

Then in a blink of an eye, Ragna swung his massive Seithr hand into the air, grabbing nothing while Rachel felt a hand tap her shoulder as she quickly turned to see Sora standing right next to her, one foot on the Rev Blade and the other on the ground as she couldn't believe what she had just witnessed. "Did...I pass your test Rachel?" Sora questioned seriously as Rachel was quick to regain her composure after witnessing something like that.

"Indeed… you have.. Mr Minakaze." Rachel said, her mind struggling to process what she had experienced with what she had seen. As an observer, she has always known that phenomena intervention was something that happens in the world on a regular basis. But to experience that an eerily similar phenomena in the span of seconds while still being aware of what was supposed to happen… it confirmed a suspicion she had about Sora as she wondered what question Sora was going to ask her at that moment.

"Good… I would like to ask you my question but not right now. Something came up and I need to get back right now." Sora said with a seriousness in his voice as he needed to get back to Makoto urgently as he held up one of the lightning rods that Rachel used against him. "So I am going to take this instead and use this as my I.O.U instead. The next time we meet, I better get the whole answer from you. No bullshit with me alright." Sora said with a serious voice as Rachel calmly nodded her head before Sora grabbed the Rev Blade.

"Sorry things had to end abruptly Ragna. I have something that just came up and I need to go now." Sora said as Ragna himself was struggling to process how fast everything ended. "Woah wait a minute. What did you just do!? and why didn't you do that earlier!?" Ragna questioned as Sora simply stood still, calmly taking a deep breath as he looked at Ragna. "It's complicated. I can't just use it willy nilly. And I wasn't trying to exert myself too much. I was trying to avoid using it." Sora said as this reminded him of something.

"Oh yeah, I kept Ragna conscious. I better you to answer all of the question I have for you the next we meet Rachel." Sora said as like the first two times he did so, he vanished completely again, sending chills down Ragna's spine as the way he appeared and disappeared simply reminded him of a ghost as Rachel herself simply stared right at where Sora stood, her interest in the man piquing like never before as she couldn't help but be troubled by what she had seen.

"To think… that the error had an ability like so… just how aware is he of his true nature?.." Rachel wondered as while Rachel and Ragna spent the time trying to recompose themselves, Sora was already running back to where Makoto was, using his drive to accelerate his path while running normally. His mind was not on finding out what was going on with his life at that moment but on what was happening with Makoto and what prompted her to abruptly end the phone call like she did. All he cared about at that moment was simple.

"Just what the hell is going on Makoto?..." Sora simply said in a voice that expressed worry like no other.

GREETINGS LOST SHEEP OF FANFICTION!? HOW IS EVERYONE DOING RIGHT NOW!? Well… a few months we have spent in quarantine. How are you guys doing cooped up in your homes? Not going insane in the process? Something I have just realized about quarantine, doesn't quarantine feel like solitary confinement? I mean you aren't completely isolated from the things you can do and you can leave if there are things you need to do but doesn't quarantine have the same premise as solitary confinement in every other aspect? I dunno something to think about I guess.

WELL IN ANY OTHER CASE, WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT TO SORA MINAKAZE!? WILL HE BE ABLE TO MAKE IT IN TIME TO MEET UP WITH MAKOTO!? AND JUST WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MAKOTO NANAYA TO WARRANT HER ENDING A CALL QUICKLY!? JUST WHAT IS GOING TO BE THE FATE OF THESE TWO!? Well.. in any other case, let us see what has fate in store for these two shall we?

Saikuron'inpakuto = Cyclone Impact
