In a completely different universe… It seemed to be on the brink of destruction with no hope for it getting any better. It was a post-apocalyptic area with the source of its destruction being something that had a degree of raw power like nothing else. If left untouched, the destruction could spread to other universes in past, present, and future time periods.

Yokai Watch Universe (Future Time Period)

The group was starring off into the rising sun as the terror of Soranaki came to an end as well as the conflict between Shuka and Kuten was resolved as the two spirits reunited at last.

"Man was all of that something," Akinori said.

"It's still kind of unbelievable to comprehend everything that happened," Natsume said.

"Right, who would have ever thought that we three were reincarnations of yokai," Touma said.

"It feels nice to just relax now," Keisuke said as the group was now back at the detective agency office. "Although if Natsume was the reincarnation of princess Shuka, then what would that make me then?" he asked.

"Now that I think about it, I remember seeing Keisuke with us back when we were in Shuka's castle. I believe it was…" Natsume said quickly drawing something on a spare piece of paper before presenting it to everyone. To which this drawing was if Keisuke was a puppy.

"Aww, adorable," Ayame said.

"What is that supposed to be?" Keisuke asked with a deadpanned face.

"Shuka's pet," Natsume replied.

"But isn't that just Manjimutt though?" Keisuke asked.

"Now, that's something worth sharing," Whisper said with a sneer.

"Whisper! What on earth are you doing?!" Keisuke screamed before trying to snatch Whisper's yokai iPad.

"Well at least things are back to normal for now," Akinori said trying to lighten up the situation.

"Right, I wonder how long it'll last," Touma said.

"It already makes me think what our next adventure will be," Ayame said.

"Everyone, come and look at this," Akinori's grandma, Mitsue, said.

"What's the matter?" Akinori said before Mitsue, signaling them to look into her crystal ball.

"What is that?" Ayame asked.

"This is a mystical item called the Scepter of Darkness. As the name implies, it's bound by a dark presence whose power can be frightening. I've currently been picking up readings that it's being followed by an evil force and as such, we can't have it fall in the hands of an evil yokai. Would you be willing to find it and bring it back? I've already deduced where it is currently," Mitsue said.

"Leave it to us, right everyone?" Akinori asked as everyone unanimously nodded in agreement before the group left after being told where to go.

"Well, we're here, but there's barely anything here," Keisuke said when the group arrived at their destination.

"If anything, it seems to be getting darker here. That could be a hint for us," Ayame said.

"Ok, in that case, possession! Lend me your power," Touma said he transformed into Yoshitsune. "I sense a dark presence," he said as he concentrated his mind before pinpointing its location. "Alright, show yourself," he said as he swung his sword at what seemingly looked like an amorphous blob before a silhouette began to become visible

"Go away," a voice said, where it showed a humanoid cloaked figure holding something.

"We won't. Not with the Scepter of Darkness in the wrong hands," Natsume said while thinking that she had seen this figure somewhere before.

"I see, guess you won't back down without a fight," the figure said before releasing a powerful blast.

"Akinori!" Ayame screamed.

"Right with you," Akinori replied as the two magic users made a defensive shield.

"Summoning! Shadow. Come on out my friend, calling Jibanyan," Keisuke said as he summoned forth his yokai friend. "Jibanyan, I'm counting on you," he said.

"Leave it to me," Jibanyan responded before using its paws of fury move while Yoshitsune readied a follow-up attack while their opposition was dealing with Jibanyan before striking.

Their opponent had sustained much damage by now but still stood up. "Wait a minute, Shuka, is that you?" it asked when it was looking at Natsume.

"Not anymore. If you see me like her, then as a guard, listen to me and hand over the Scepter of Darkness," Natsume ordered.

"Wait do you mean by that?" Ayame asked confused.

"That yokai was actually one of the castle guards of Shuka. It seems like you're still holding onto that grudge that Kuten was set free even after my spirit of Shuka left." Natsume said.

"I won't for what you did. He shouldn't be set free," the guard said angrily as he launched another attack towards Natsume.

"Look out!" Keisuke screamed as he pulled her aside, avoiding the attack before Yoshitsune stepped in for another attack which pushed back the guard, and the force of that also affected the scepter in some way, but no one had noticed it currently.

"It's over. Give it up," Touma said after he reverted to himself. Then several more similar figures appeared taking the guard away.

"Let go of me," the guard said as the group instantly vanished away.

"Well, at least, we got what we came for," Akinori said picking up the scepter.

"Wait a minute, there seems to be something up with it," Touma said as the group inspected the scepter. There were a few cracks forming on the Specter before it started to glow. "Everyone! Look out!" he screamed as everyone jumped back only for the scepter to finally shatter into pieces.

"It must've been back then," Akinori said before something started to form from the broken scepter. It took the form of a dark anthropomorphic bipedal hedgehog fused with the attributes of a yokai.

"So, you're the one who destroyed the Specter of Darkness. I must thank you for releasing me from my imprisonment, that horrid thing was such a pain," the yokai said before releasing a dark energy sphere, which immediately destroyed the group's surroundings including most of the scepter before a fragment of it was collected by Natsume before putting it in her coat pocket.

"Who are you and what did you do that for!?" Keisuke screamed.

"Mephiles is the name. There's no way I can let the people who defeated Nazo interfere with my plans." the yokai replied. "Especially him," he thought when indirectly looking at Keisuke.

"Take this," Akinori and Ayame said as the two unleashed an offensive magic blast at the same time to which Mephiles avoided by blending and sinking into the ground before firing off another dark sphere of energy resulting in an explosion.

"Now a parting gift," Mephiles said as he charged up a different sphere of energy while at the same time, creating clones of himself to attack the group. He soon threw the sphere to Keisuke while everyone was trying to deal with the clones, which unbeknownst to them, caused him to disappear.

"Possession!" Touma said as he transformed into Fudou Myou before quickly slicing through the shadows with its thunder-infused sword.

"Man, that was a shock, but luckily, I got a fragment of the scepter before it was destroyed," Natsume said.

"I guess, this task is solved then," Touma said.

"Who would've thought there be more enemies like him," Ayame said.

"Wait a moment, Keisuke's not here!" Natsume screamed.

"What?! Also, Jibanyan and Whisper," Akinori said.

"Do you think he could've fled when that explosion occurred?" Touma asked.

"Well, let's head back to the detective agency and report what happened," Akinori said as the group left to go back.

"Now you stay put. Those other two are now what I need in order to have my plans not be foiled by," Memphis said before time traveling to his next stop, the present.
