The huge ice spears kept raining down on the four of them, stabbing Hajime in the leg, blowing back Shin, almost destroying Hayate's arm, and barely missing Sasame's heart. Mannen was there, high in the air, laughing like a maniac.

"Is that all you've got! Is it! Hah! Don't be so lame, you b-tch-s!" Mannen raised both hands and slammed them down to the eart, crating a huge shock as ice and snow molded into hail the size of soccer balls and pelleting the four knights. "You won't hear the truth any more! Not from precious little Mannen any longer!" He started laughing again as Shin tried to put up the barrier and one of the hail pieces got him squarely on the nose, splattering blood everywhere. "You're going to have to be quicker than that, you little rat!" He thrust his hands high in the air and the black speras rained down on the down knights.

Mannen turned and walked away. Behind him was a sene of utter devestation. Hayate and Sasame had enough spears in them to look like porcupines and Shin and Hajime were frozen in solid blocks of black ice and they had a look of horror on their faces. Blood was everywhere, concrete lay broken, there were dents in the sidewalk, chuncks of the street had been ripped up, and red snow fell all around.

Go & Kei, a moment later

Go came to a full halt. His red eyes followed the flow of disaster and Kei's form moving amongst the huge spears the size of light poles and then to the two boys in the ice and he felt horrible. This might have been his fault for not listening to the boy. He was melting the ice when he felt a blast of cold Leafe freeze the boys again. He whirrled around and saw Mannen. The boys black hair was now several inches past his shoulders and he was now eighteen, the same age as his previous self, the one Go still loved, even after death had taken him.

"Mannen!"
"Go, don't!" Kei nearly screamed. His blond hair and golden cloths sepearated him from the spears as he shot into the air. His pale skin became even paler at the sight of Mannen. "Oh my gods! Mannen?"

"Yeah, that'd be me. Lying, evil, harmful Mannen." He smirked. "This is fun, isn't it, Kei?" He thrust his hand forward and a vine of black ice sprouted from the spears and grabbed Kei's leg and dragged him down and held him there. "I have a bone to pick with you! All four of you!" He made a huge fist of ice and knocked Go aside with it. "And I'll get what I want this time..."

Go saw the world grow dark and he felt the concrete beneath him.
