This was kinda getting off the track of the dark theme I intended it to be while fluffs are nice. So this one will be dark and bloody. Enjoy.
"Who the hell is there?" Minato shouted to the shadows as he held the shaking Hamuko.
There was no answer but Minato could feel it. Ssomeone was there, mocking him by not answering.
"L-Let's just go," Hamuko whimpered but Minato shook his head.
"This bastard is going to hell for stalking you," He let go of Hamuko and yelled out again, "Come out you bastard."
A giggle answered him and it made Minato pissed. Very pissed. He wanted to curse horribly at it but then, something blazing from the shadows caught his attention.
A fiery ball of flames was shot right at Hamuko who backed away, hoping to avoid it. Minato quickly switched to Pyro back and embraced Hamuko, turning his back onto the fire ball. The fireball burned his jacket but Minato didn't feel any pain thanks to the fire immunity.
Hamuko gasped and Minato released her, discarding his jacket. "I'm alright, Minato whispered beforehand.
"Come out!" Minato shouted again as he harnessed an Agi and threw it towards the shadows, where the voice was coming from. The fire collided with what seemed to be a trashcan and then exploded. Minato shoved Hamuko away so that she wouldn't get scorched by the embers.
"Ow," Minato muttered before smirking. This voice just confirmed that someone was indeed there, hiding in the dense shadows that dominated the station.
"Stay beside me," Minato ordered Hamuko who shakily nodded.
The voice laughed again. "Protecting the bitch are we?" The voice mocked and Minato's brain went haywire from anger. The voice was rather feminine. Minato could for sure say that whoever was doing this was a girl.
"How dare you! You bitch," Minato shouted again, cursing at the unidentified girl. Nobody could call Hamuko that and whoever it did would die horribly.
Minato screamed again, "You asshole! Where the hell are you! I'll rip your innards out!"
"Over here," she spoke, Minato hearing the voice coming from behind him. He quickly turned around, ready to strike, but found no-one. Only shadows, nothing else.
"Hahaha," The voice laughed again.
"That's it!" Minato had enough. Without thinking he charged right into the darkness that dominated the scene, right into the enemy's territory.
The voice laughed again since Minato finally fell into the trap. Minato could barely make out Hamuko in the Dark Hour. Before he could event think of launching an assault, a wicked punch slammed against his face. Minato dropped to his knees and struck back but unfortunately his fist didn't hit anything.
"You can't beat me," The voice laughed again. "You can't beat the shadows," she giggled.
"Damn you," Minato swung his fists aimlessly but they hit nothing but air.
"Are you blind?" The voice mocked. Minato dropped to the ground as he felt something smash against his head. Minato screamed as he felt blood dripping down from the back of his head.
"That was a brick," Minato muttered, before he quickly stood back up.
"Minato! Just leave it," Hamuko pleaded but Minato shook his head. He didn't have an Evoker with him so he was at a disadvantage.
"This will be tiring," Minato mumbled as he spammed fireballs across the place, hoping to light it up and get the idea that who exactly was hitting him.
"Just die already," Minato shouted as fire dominated the place. Hamuko shrieked and backed away. The place was burning now and Minato could finally make out someone wearing a large black overcoat and had long black hair that was styled into a ponytail. Her face wasn't illuminated so Minato couldn't make it out properly.
"So you're a human after all?" Minato panted, the spamming taking a lot out of him. The black haired teenager held something to her head. Minato's eyes widened as heard a familiar click sound, he couldn't mistake it. That girl had an Evoker.
"The hell?" Minato cursed, "Someone from our side is giving them Evokers…"
"Aquadyne!" The girl shouted as the familiar glass shards exploded from the other side of her temple. Hamuko began shaking.
Minato could definitely feel a Persona… But he couldn't see it at all.
"Die!" With a war cry, a torrent of water was shot right at Minato. The pressure was too much and Minato was lifted off his feet, slamming back right into a huge trash can.
Minato's head met the metal trash can, he slowly dropped to the ground and took a deep breath. Most of the water was sent right into his throat. He coughed it out, struggling to catch his breath. All the hard work of lighting the place was cancelled in just a mere second.
"Minato!" Hamuko made a dash towards him but Minato's voice stopped her.
"Don't you dare," he shouted and Hamuko stopped in her tracks.
"I won't ever talk to you if you step in," Minato warned as he struggled to get up. "What the hell is she?"
The girl giggled as she walked towards him. Minato couldn't see properly at all now since the lights in the Dark Hour were off and the moon wasn't properly illuminating the place because of the damn buildings towering over the back alley.
Suddenly, an idea came to his mind. Minato screamed out in pain as he choked out, "I can't fight anymore," he muttered, shocking the hell out of Hamuko. The auburn haired girl made a run towards the place but was thrown off the ground by one hard punch meeting her pretty face.
A shriek of pain did tell Minato that Hamuko was hurt, he wanted to go crazy again but this time, he controlled it.
"I'm done for," Minato cried.
"Aww," The girl mocked. She pressed her foot right onto Minato's skull, almost preparing to crush it. The blue haired devil smirked. She was right in his trap.
She pressed her foot harder and was about to crush it until…
"Got you," Minato yelled out, taking her by surprise. He grabbed her foot and slammed her onto the ground. The girl shrieked as she fell flat on the black.
Still holding onto her leg, Minato got up and although aimlessly and without a clue, slammed his foot right onto her face. Such a thing was no problem for Minato Arisato.
A satisfied smirk slid into Minato's lip as he heard a shout of pain from the girl. "You bitch." he snarled and grabbed her by the hair, lifting her up. He was about to harness an Agi spell and shove it right down her gullet but the next second, he cried out in pain and released her from his grip.
Minato clutched his arm, it was still injured thank to that 'huge sonnova' as Minato had dubbed him. The pain nearly made him pass out but the girl was nowhere near done. She dug two knives right onto Minato's arm before sliding it through his flesh. Minato could do nothing but scream. Blood splattered on the ground in huge amounts.
Hamuko watched in horror as Minato's pained cries echoed in the dead night. The girl had grabbed a hold of his injured shoulder and repeatedly dug her knife right into his flesh, mercilessly. A cruel laugh followed Minato's cries.
"You bastard," She plunged the knife from his arm and then slammed it right onto his thigh. Minato dropped to the ground, on his knees, only to be welcomed by a sick kick right to his face. Minato fell onto the ground but screamed in pain as he felt someone's foot crushing his ribs.
Hamuko was starting to sob, she was helpless again. She couldn't see at all but could very well hear the droplets of blood splattering on the ground and most likely, the blood was of Minato.
"I wish I knew how to manipulate elements," She cried to herself.
The girl removed her foot from his ribs and backed away, "I'll let you live, Minato." The bluenette's eyes opened wide. How did she know his name?
"Save your pity for the weak," Minato spat and got up. He heard a small sigh and the next second, his school shirt was stained with blood. A harsh yell came from his mouth as he felt his back being cut open.
Minato jumped back, hoping to get some distance. He winced from the constant cuts, "I can't beat her. She's dual wielding knives," He mused.
"Hamuko! Stay where you are!" Minato commanded, only getting a sob in response. Minato gritted his teeth. Summoning Death was an option but he couldn't risk it. What if the job wasn't done and he collapsed after?
He needed a weapon. A sword. He closed his eyes and concentrated as hard as he could. "I need a sword…" he mumbled. Switching to Orpheus in his mind he whispered, "I need it, otherwise, Hamuko will die…" He relaxed his breathing and concentrated on his persona.
"Weapon fusion," Minato muttered to himself as Orpheus slowly got shorter inside his soul, it twisted and turned until it resembled a dented sword… but a sword nonetheless.
Electricity cackled and buzzed around his hands which were surrounded by a bright and golden light. Minato smirked at the light that illuminated the surroundings. He could make out the girl now. She had hazel eyes and black hair, she was rather cute in looks but Minato didn't care. He wanted to rip her guts out right now.
"You'll go to hell." Minato snarled as the light gave a final shine and materialized into exactly what Minato wanted, a sword.
Minato cursed as the light subsided. The darkness took control again. The girl laughed coldly, "There goes your chance. Can you defeat someone who you can't se—" Her words were cut off.
A scorching fire ball was shot right towards her courtesy of Hamuko. The auburn haired girls eyes were puffy red from the crying but her fist was glazing. Desperation finally allowed her to control the elements like Minato did.
"Don't you dare hurt my Minato," Hamuko snarled as she shot another Agi spell towards her. The attack had her reeling and it allowed enough time for Minato to dash towards her.
Minato furiously stabbed his sword right into her thigh. A scream echoed invoking a sadistic smile from Minato.
"You think you can beat me?" He grabbed her by the hair and slammed her face onto the ground. He had no problem hitting a girl and he proved that point by stomping on her skull.
The girl managed to push him off and then yelled, "Fuck you SEES! I'll kill you next time."
The sound of someone running reached Minato's ear. He sighed and dropped to the ground… Just as he dropped down, the shadows completely vanished, "The hell? These weren't regular?" According to his mind, the shadows left just as the girl did and the moonlight illuminated the place once again.
"She created them?" Minato mused but then winced. His whole body was dripping blood. Hamuko was just as confused as Minato. She hurried over to him and hugged him tightly.
"You idiot! It was my turn to go through hell," She yelled.
"Like I'll let you." Minato whimpered as his body was totally spent, "Weapon fusion? That will come in handy."
He cried out as Hamuko's hand touched his almost non-existent shoulder. The auburn hair girl gasped as he looked at the arm which was already injured by the reaper.
"Don't cry dammit!" Minato nearly pleaded as he rested his head against her shoulder, "I was already feeling kinda sick."
"What?" Hamuko shrieked as he felt his forehead… He was sick, just like he said.
"Why did you come here?" Hamuko asked.
"I was worried about you," Minato replied and then buried his face into her neck, almost passing out.
"Let me catch my breath," he panted and slowly closed his eyes.
"Sure," Hamuko replied, stroking his hair.
SEES ran towards the two thanks to Mitsuru's Persona which told them of the location. Yukari as usual erupted into a fit of jealousy as he stared at Minato resting his head against Hamuko who was stroking his hair.
Minato was still left to his thoughts as he was falling unconscious. There was someone in SEES that was against them. He made a mental note to find that bastard and rip his throat out.
Hoshi : Woohoo, finished~ That was nice, short and sweet. =)
Eh, well I'm out. Appreciate the reviews, so sayoonara for now. XD
