Spending and Fighting Time Together at a Mall
Asura is seen snoring loudly in his sleep on the bed as he hopes to sleep in longer because today is the weekend, which means no school to worry about and maybe thinking about doing some solo training when he gets the chance. Thankfully, he didn't have any nightmares of his past-life last night as he just had some peaceful ones like being with a woman who was apparently his wife and a young girl who seems to be his daughter enjoying the peace they have together.
RRIIIINNNNNGGG
RRIIIINNNNNGGG
Asura's phone rang loud waking him up from the dream as his eyes shot wide open from the sudden ringing, which was weird because he was sure that he set his alarm on the phone for later time since it's the weekend. Must mean that someone is calling him in the morning.
He groans annoyance as he reaches out for the IPhone, not bothering getting his face off the pillow and tries to find on the counter next to the bed until he felt it, holding it near his face to see an unknown caller with the number ID he doesn't recognizes. Normally, he would just hang up whenever he gets an unknown caller, but something was telling him to answer it.
"Hello?" Asura groaned answering the call.
"Hey, Asura, you awake? I hope I didn't get the wrong number." The unknown caller said, the voice is female and Asura quickly recognizes it.
"You're that Sophia girl from yesterday?" Asura asked.
"Yep, that's me!" Sophia answered exciting.
"How did you get this number?" Asura asked, the only ones who has his number are Moroha, Satsuki, and Shizuno.
"I asked Moroha, I told him that I wanted to hang out with you and thought it'll be a good way to become friends." Sophia explained simply.
"(Moroha, I'm starting to think you're just "too" nice.)" Asura thought.
"Something tells me you're not gonna take no for an answer." Asura sighed, feeling that this girl is persistent.
"See, we're already getting to know each other, and I'm going to make sure we have a great day!" Sophia determined.
To this point, Asura has no choice but to go along with whatever the busty upperclassmen girl wants.
"Fine, we'll… hang out together." Asura said slowly getting up from his bed.
"Hooray! Meet me at the mall in an hour!" Sophia said before hanging up.
Asura wonder what this girl has in store for him and hopes she doesn't drag on through shopping to any clothing stores that girls like to go at, he gets up from the bed and starts to get himself ready.

"And… you are sure about this?" A calm young man wearing a gold mask asked on the phone.
"You better believe it, I did not think I would ever see another friend from my past life besides and others." Wyzen's voice said through the other phone.
"Well, the world is full of surprises these days." The young man said looking at the horizon.
"I'm sure you be most happy to see him, I think you are friends once back then." Wyzen guessed trying to remember a bit.
"Maybe, but we'll have to see how this plays out when we do cross paths." The young man said.
"Does that mean you're coming home soon?" Wyzen asked.
"Yes, I'm almost done with my business here. I hope Shizuno is doing well." The young man wondered.
"Oh, that remains me; Shizuno has been recruited to join the Slayers." Wyzen reported.
"I see, then I'll have to end it quickly to congratulate her." The young man said before hanging up the phone.
(With Asura)
Asura is standing in front of the mall entrance wearing some normal clothing of a red tank-top and white-yellow shorts as looks around trying to see of Sophia is coming and looking at his phone seeing the time is almost an hour up.
Sometimes he wonders to himself why did he bother getting out of bed today.
"Hey! Asura, over here!"
Asura turn his head to the right and his eyes widen of embarrassment as his cheeks blushes into red seeing Sophia wearing a blue overall with not even a shirt to cover her massive breasts except for the stripes and sandals on her feet.
"Hi! I'm so glad you're here!" Sophia smiled looking all cute as Asura looks away.
"Damn, woman, what the hell are you wearing?" Asura asked trying not to look at her cleavage.
"Huh, what's wrong with the way I dress?" Sophia confused. This is one of her every day clothing she always like to wear.
"Aren't you worry about people seeing you like this? At least put a shirt on." Asura demanded as he tries to calm himself down.
"Why would I be worried? I always wear something like this all the time after school and time off from my Slayers duty." Sophia said stretching out the stripes a bit.
"(My god how is this girl not arrested for public nudity?)" Asura thought asked himself.
"Anyway, enough about me, let's go have some fun!" Sophia grabbed Asrua's hand and drag him into the mall.
For the next few hours, Asura and Sophia have been going to some stores like a few clothing stores, but they also went some other stores like checking out some movies, comic books, visiting some children toys shop, and playing some video games at the arcade. Even though Asura hasn't played any games in a while, he finds himself enjoying the time with Sophia along making this trap to the mall interesting and having some fun time together.
Now, they are sitting together in a table eating some food like pizza and soda drinks at the food court decided to take a lunch break from all that walking around in the mall.
"Man, we sure around a lot!" Sophia exclaimed stretching her arms.
"Yeah, it was actually pretty fun." Asura admitted taking a sip of his soda.
"I'm glad you're having a good time. At first, I thought you be all like grumpy-mean with your temper from what I heard from Wyzen-sensei." Sophia mentioned stirring the straw of her drink. Asura snorted of hearing that name.
"As if just seeing the fatso wasn't annoying enough." Asura said.
"Hey, Wyzen-sensei is the best couch in the couch and I so happen to be his number one favorite student!" Sophia bragged proudly, pounded her fist to her breast.
"Somehow I'm not surprise." Asura grunted.
"Look, I heard about what happened yesterday. Knowing Wyzen-sensei, he probably just wanted to teach Satsuki about self-confidence and not letting the power go over her head." Sophia said tapping her head with her finger.
"I think it was a little over extreme for my taste, I don't regret giving him a good lesson with my fists." Asura smirked, only imagione the look on the gym teacher's face when he punched Wyzen to through the roof.
"I'm sure he was very impressed of your display of strength." Sophia said.
"So, Asura, why did you turn down the offer to join the Stiker?" Sophia asked, wanting to know his reason.
"I guess you could say… I've been a loner through most of my life, and that my past-life once worked with a team he thought he could trust, but they all turned traitor and tried to kill him." Asura explained, remembering his time being alone in his childhood.
"Oh, so you're worry that the Stikers might betray you." Sophia guessed.
"Something like that." Asura said, then gasps when Sophia suddenly sat on his laps and hugging his head to her breasts making him blush.
"There's no need to worry, I promise the Slayers are like a new family and will always have each other's backs. Being strong alone is great, but that can only get you so far, don't you think it's better to work others to help get stronger?" Sophia asked softly.
While Asura was blushing of embarrassment with his face smooth on Sophia's breasts, he has claim down a bit to think about what she just said: about wanting to become stronger and working with others for the better. Even though Asura was always alone most of his life he did had his parents and a friend who once stood by his side until the day he and his family moved away to live in another town, maybe being with others won't be so bad unlike his past-life.
Then suddenly, they heard a loud boom sound and people screaming in fear as they run for their lives.
"What's going on?" Asura asked.
"It must be a Metaphysical attack, we have to check outside!" Sophia suggested as she runs in the opposite direction and Asura quickly follow her.
Soon as they got outside, they see a giant snake with emerald-green eyes and red-bloodish veins all over its body, hissing in rage and to their surprise they also see Satsuki and Shizuno there.
"We have to help them!" Asura stated, Sophia nodded.
"I'll go help Shizuno evacuate some people, you help Satsuki with the snake." Sophia planned before running off.
Asura soon ran towards the snake ready for some action.
"Let's go, Kuchika-kan!" Asura shouted turning into his Slayer uniform and form six golden arms, then jump straight at the side of the snake's head giving it a powerful punch.
"Asura!" Satsuki shouted in joy, not sure why he's here but glad that he is.
"You alright?" Asura asked.
"I'm fine, I was just having a nice day with Shizuno, but then this stupid snake just ruined it." Satsuki said mad, pointing her sword at the snake monster.
"Then let's send this thing packing… to the afterlife!" Asura declared preparing to fight.
Later Satsuki and Asura are leading the snake Metaphysical into the now empty mall as they are joined by Shizuno and Sophia each attacking the monster with every power they can throw at it; Asura punching on the sides of the body with devastating, Satsuki slashing her sword, Shizuno casting a barrage of ice-draggers, and Sophia pounding it with her double-ended Kanabō. Together, they might defeat this thing once and for all.
At least that it what seems, until Satsuki got a surprise attack by another snake Metaphysical.
"What… there's another one?" Asura confused, then on instinct brought his arms on guard to defend against the head of another as he gets push back.
"More are coming at once, no… it can't be!" Sophia worried in fear.
The ground cracks open to showing more giant snakes coming out together and revealing that they are one together in the same body, then at the end where the tail should be a giant that's bigger than the others, more red and black indicating that this must be the leader.
"It's a multi-headed type?" Shizuno shocked.
"There's… no way… we don't stand a chance." Satsuki said shaking in fear.
One of the snakes blast a fog-like attack at Satsuki.
"Look out!" Shizuno warned pushing Satsuki away, but they couldn't dodge it completely as from the legs they began to turn into stone.
"My legs!" Satsuki gasped.
"You need to boost your prana and resist the stone magic!" Shizuno said as she does her best.
"Damn it, this is insane! We need backup!" Asura said wondering where they are.
"It's no use, they're not coming!" Sophia shouted, confusing the six-armed boy.
"This Metaphysical is nothing like we've ever seen, if this was a normal type they would come but this thing is too dangerous that it would take 100 men to fight it!" Sophia explained, knowing what her friends are doing now.
Asura shock and turn his head as his eyes as cover in shadows as one of the snake heads hisses charging at Asura.
"ASURA?!" Sophia shouted as tears are about to drop from her eyes.
(Music- Asura Wrath Soundtrack - Asura Unleashed)
"AAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHH?!" Asura punched the snake head away crashing into another one.
"You're a real idiot, you know that." Asura said angry to Sophia who is shock from the punch.
"If you call yourself the "swords of salvation" to save lives, then wouldn't mean to have the will to fight on with your life on the line?!" Asura lectured shock Sophia making her realizes what an idiot she is now.
"Moroha!" Satsuki called out as she's wrapped in one snake's tongue.
"Satsuki!" Asura shouted wanting to go help her, but some of the snake heads coming at him are preventing the rescue.
Just when it seems all hope is lost for Satsuki as she thinks of her final thought of Moroha.
"Salatiga, now! Come to me!" Moroha's voice shouted from above and he appears freeing Satsuki.
"Heh, what took you so long." Asura smirked to his best friend.
"Sorry I'm late." Moroha said glad to see his friend are okay, sort of for Satsuki and Shizuno.
"Whoa, that thing is massive!" Moroha commented on the bigger head.
"Well, no time to lose; I'll handle the big one while you handle the small fries." Asura suggested hoping behind Moroha.
"You sure that's a good idea?" Moroha questioned Asura's plan.
"Better than nothing, let's go!" Asura shouted as he ran to the leader head and Moroha went on attacking the ten snake heads.
Asura start throwing strong punches to the leader snake thought the assault has only little effect on the creature as it attacks Asura doing his best to dodge it. Moroha isn't doing so well either as they are too many of them to deal with no matter how much he attacks.
As Asura grins his teeth that none of his attacks are working but not wanting to give up the fight, he suddenly gets another flashback of his past-life.
(Flashback)
Seeing him floating in outer space fighting against a giant unholy monster spurting from the earth itself. Charging and slamming all three of his fists on the right side into the monster's head creating giant cracks as it screeches in pain.
(Flashback End)
"Alright, let's do this!" Asura said ready to unleash one powerful attack and jumps higher than the leader head.
"I don't forgive, and I never forget. I always remember those who take from me!" Moroha shouted powering up more prana and starts casting an enchantment after seeing his second past-life.
Both heroes have charged up their power and ready to unleash their powerful attack upon the multi-headed Metaphysical. It is as if they have read each other's mind strike at the same time to destroy the monster once and for all.
"Yin Yang Kurikara" Moroha unleashed a huge slashing black-white explosion at the smaller heads.
"Triple-Killer Impact" Asura dives at the leader head like a meteor and strike three fists on the head creating large cracks of energy as the multi-headed creature has been killed for good as the clouds covering the sky spread out clearing the crimson sky.
(Music End)
The two boys landed safely smiling at each other for a job well done as the girls are happy of overjoyed that they beat it together as the stone effect on Satsuki and Shizuno have worn off.
Mari and Jin soon arrived seeing the Metaphysical into small pieces falling from the sky.
"I was right, about BOTH of them." Mari smiled.
(Next Day)
"Wow, can you believe we're officially Strikers now!" Satsuki cheered as she and Asura has just been acceptance into the Strikers team.
"Yeah, just don't expect me to follow stupid orders." Asura warned as Moroka chuckles and Shizuno felt annoyed now that she has to deal with Satsuki more in the same team.
"Looks like is going a be an interesting school year for all of us!" Moroha declared with a bright smile. Asura put a small smile, knowing that he's not wrong.
