Hello again and welcome to the second chapter of A Samurai's Resolve. I'm glad people liked my first one as it was my first time ever doing so but anyways here's the second chapter. Things will be heating up this chapter as Michiko tries her best amidst the sudden invasion. I don't have much else to say other than that I don't own For Honor or Monster Girl Encyclopedia. Fair warning this chapter may have more sexual times and such but that's to be expected isn't it?

Dontmindme: Glad you liked it so much. Hope you like this just as much.

DARKANGEL2610: I'm happy you enjoyed it so much and as for your question it's all up in the air isn't it?

Without any further ado, let's get started.

Lescatie, 9.00 P.M

Michiko shook her head in anger at herself for letting her guard down right now, of course they'd attack at night! But how did they get in so fast? While the defenses were shoddy it still should've taken an hour to break through even with Sasha's intel. "Unless she's been selling them out for a long time." Michiko thought before rolling as a kunai landed where she'd previously been.

She glanced around before several kunoichi jumped down and held out their kunai and katanas without pause while Akio jumped in front. "You have been placed under arrest by the Demon Lord's Fourth. Surrender peacefully and maybe we can have some fun first." Michiko glanced at all of them. "Eight in total. Possibly more in hiding." Michiko thought quickly as her nodachi rested on her shoulder.

"And lose my will as a result? I'll pass." She said with a glare as the kunoichi prepared to strike before a bright light filled the area and a Valkyrie appeared between the groups. "A Valkyrie?!" One of the mamano said in surprise as the angelic woman turned to look at Michiko. "You are a heretic. But you hold a great power and may be key to defeating the demon lord. Go." She said with a tilt of her head, sword and shield raised against the mamano.

"I cannot abandon you." "You're not. I'm giving you a chance to save others." Michiko slowly nodded before taking off as the Valkyrie prepared to fight the kunoichi before a staggering presence brought her to her knees.

"And here I was hoping to meet the woman who had piqued my interest." Called out a powerful voice as Lady Druella herself floated forward and stood before the Valkyrie. "Akio, search the city. She couldn't have gotten far." She said before getting closer to the divine agent of the Chief God. "You let her escape but it is of little consequence, soon you both will love the happiness I offer." She said and held a hand against the Valkyrie's face as demonic energy coursed through her.

Michiko had continued a sprint through the city before coming across several mamano who happened to be enjoying some of the guards. "Oooh! Look, we have a new woman!" An orc got up, in nothing but her birthday suit as she hefted a club and chuckled. "Join us." She said promptly as her hand reached for the silent woman, and then it was numb before pain shot through her arm, which was no longer there.

"I will never submit." Michiko said as she slowly brought her sword back as the monster's arm spurted blood as she collapsed and screamed in pain, the other mamano gasping in horror and one even throwing up. "Leave me be and you may live." She said coldly but they couldn't just do that after what she did, she had to answer for hurting the orc.

Two werewolves attacked at the same time, swiping for her arms as she backpedaled away and retaliated, her sword coming out quickly and disemboweling one of them as she fell to the ground without a sound. The other looked heartbroken before attacking with more ferocity as the kensei blocked and dodged before rolling as a sword struck where she'd been, curtesy of Akio.

Michiko sighed and glanced at each of the mamano ahead of her and raised her sword once more. She dodged a kunai headed for her head and a bite for her leg by spinning as her nodachi followed and sliced cleanly through the legs of the werewolf, leaving her a whimpering mess. She reached into her coat and pulled out one of her own kunai before throwing it with deadly accuracy, the small knife cutting into Akio's arm.

Akio screamed in pain and started to try and pull the kunai out as two more orcs rushed the samurai. One found her club deflected and pushed to the ground as the other had her own sidestepped and next thing her chest was cut. The other orc finally recovered just as the nodachi thrust through her chest, silencing her as she dropped dead.

Akio pulled the kunai out and found her ponytail being forcefully grabbed as she was forced to kneel in front of the samurai as her nodach was held reversed. "Tsumaranu mono wo kiru ki wa nai." And just like that her life was ended as the word cut her throat, leaving her to bleed in a puddle of her own blood.

Michiko glanced to the men who laid there on the ground, too far gone in their lust so she did the honorable thing in her eyes.

She left that street littered with bodies of mamano and humans and made her way to Sasha's orphanage before a human blocked her way. "Stop right there heretic. Under order of the Chief God, you are to be put to death." "Really? Then why did a Valkyrie just save me from several kunoichi?" He scoffed at her words and held his sword. "As if a Valkyrie would even deign to be in your presence."

His piece said he charged forward with a perfect overhead strike before the kensei's sword deflected it to the side and instantly dropped down into his neck, killing the man as he started to bleed out. "You are skilled but have never fought one who live by their sword. Yours is a tool, mine is a part of me."

"That's a beautiful speech! I should try that." A sultry yet serious voice called out as a woman in actual armor, clad with skull like ornaments and barely showing her cleavage and thighs. She held a sword and had long blue hair and pointed ears. This was a Dullahan, one of the best fighters mamano had to offer.

"Do so and I will kill you. Do not mock a kensei's way of life." Michiko said seriously and sld her hand across her blade, cleaning it of blood. "You don't intimidate me." The dullahan said as she pulled her own sword up and shot off, her sword and the kensei's clashing in a shower of sparks before her shin was kicked and she rolled underneath a slash, retaliating with her own.

Michiko hissed as she felt her body begin to heat up once more before she focused again and sidestepped another attack as her sword slashed the dullahan's side, making her gasp as blood slid down her body. They both stood and circled each other again, sizing the other up before Michiko rushed forward and went for a large overhead strike and as the dullahan made to dodge she suddenly found the nodachi and changed directions and slashed her arm bad, blood freely dribbling down.

"Your skills are impressive." The dullahan complimented and the kensei let out a breath as some swear fell from her brow. "I am a sword-saint. My life is my sword and my sword is for my people." She said with dedication and the dullahan had an odd look before Michiko was kicked in the back.

"Urg!" She grunted out and tumbled before righting herself as her body became hotter now. She turned and saw it was the Valkyrie who had kicked her, but she was no angel. She had become a corrupted shell, a Dark Valkyrie. "So you lost then…" Michiko said with regret which turned to confusion when the Valkyrie chuckled. "No. Lady Druella showed me the truth and happiness I've been missing. And she'll do the same for you."

The kensei raised a brow before a stronger presence entered the street, making her grunt in exertion as she struggled to stand. "Hmm…most cannot withstand my Demonic Presence but you can. No matter. Kneel." The Lilim ordered and the samurai struggled harder, her mind and body aflame before she felt a stronger heat and grabbed hold of it.

"HAAAAAAAAAH!" Michiko yelled and stood, her body alight with bright orange flames as the corruption and presence ceased. Druella raised an eyebrow as she looked at the strange energy before the kensei rolled away just as tentacles sprouted to grab at her but missed.

"I was hoping that would work." A childish voice called as a baphomet floated closely and Michiko panted heavily as she stared down the two powerful monsters ahead of her. "You will leave me be or I will slay you." "Slay me? But we can't have that. Wouldn't that fierce aggression be better served with passion instead."

"No." The kensei started immediately as she glared at them. "And why would that be hon?" Druella asked with a smirk. "I have only ever given myself to one man….he is gone and I'd wish for no one else…" Druella honestly hadn't expected that though. In fact…why couldn't she read anything about this woman? Naturally she could read a person's desires easily but it was like trying to read paper on fire.

"I'm sorry to hear that but what about your family? Don't you want children?" The woman flinched before pointing her nodachi at the Fourth Born. "Do not try to bargain when we both know how this will end." Druella pouted, she hated fighting and just wished pleasure for everyone but humans never knew what was good for them.

Druella looked good her followers and nodded before they heard a sound like a candle flickering on and looked to the samurai as she tossed three round balls that exploded into thick grey smoke, making them all cough as she quickly ran through the alleyways and streets.

Michiko continued running, ignoring the screams and cries of pleasure echoing all around as she tried to remember the way to the castle, maybe it hadn't fallen yet? She continued onward until she heard a voice call out to her. "M..Miss Sasaki?"

She turned her head and found Elt surprisingly, he looked the same but his shirt was a bit ripped and his hair a mess as he shook like a leaf and had some dry tears on his cheeks. "Elt…you're still around?" She asked curiously as he approached and nodded quickly, his sword absent. "It was a mess. I…I was with Merse and about to head to sleep and we were attacked! S…she told me to run and I did…I'm such a coward…"

She shook her head and looked toward the castle. "No. Running when unable to win isn't cowardly…it's smart. I'm going towards the castle to see if it hasn't fallen." He nodded and walked closer. "I hope everyone is alright. I haven't seen anyone at all until I found you." "Then stay close if you don't wish to be a monster's plaything."

And with that, the two continued on until they found themselves passing by an old church where two Kunoichi jumped down to ambush them. "We finally found you!" One said as she looked at the samurai while the other had her eyes on Elt. "Look at that cutie behind her!"

"Touch him or me and I'll cut out your tongues." Michiko said, a little of her overprotective nature coming out as she held her nodachi to her side. "So feisty." One of the mamano said and giggled before dropping into a stance as the other did. "Their stance suggests opposite attack patterns…they probably work together." Michiko thought as her and the monsters had a stare down.

Elt wasn't sure what to do. He wanted to help so badly and help the strange woman against the monsters but he couldn't fight, especially without his sword. He shook more before the two Kunoichi rushed forward, both of their blades meeting the nodachi as the samurai bent under the swords and let out a sweep before standing again. One of the mamano had fallen over but quickly rolled back before her head was sliced off by the blade. She stood again and threw a kunai which the woman dodged.

"You are formidable opponents." The samurai said before saw both of them come in from different directions. She quickly knelt and twisted, her sword flying out around her and cutting one of them across her stomach and thigh while the other and jumped back and only had a cut on her arm.

The one Kunoichi held her arm and panted as the other fell down and she called out to her. "Mochi!" The samurai looked between them before standing aside. "Let us go. And you two may live." The Kunoichi groaned and shook as she tried to decide as she looked at her sister who shook her head no.

She sighed and threw a kunai again before crying out "Bushin no Jutsu!" as multiple clones of herself appeared and allowed her to help her sister to safety before returning to the fight. Elt cowered behind a stand as Michiko felt a stab on her back, making her body heat up as she started to thin the numbers, eventually leaving the original alone.

They stood apart and stared each other down before surging forward, the nodachi raised high before the pommel came forward and smashed into the monster's nose, making her cry out as she grabbed it. Her hands had blood covering them before she felt pain shoot through her leg and she fell on one knee and her hands, then pain shot through her arm and she fell again before her head slid away from her body.

The monster's blood pooled all over and Michiko sighed before feeling a kunai hit her leg again, she pulled it out and saw it was one of her own. She wiped the blood and grimaced at the pain but worked through it as she approached the other woman who was kneeling and crying openly. "I am sorry…I gave you a chance…" Michiko closed her eyes before sliding her sword back and decapitating the woman.

"Watashi o yurushite." The woman said regretfully as she bowed to the dead woman. Elt had stopped crying and looked at the woman and the dead bodies with a green face before turning away. "Why are you so brutal?" He asked in disgust and she scoffed. "If you want brutality go find a shaman." She said off-handedly and kept walking to the castle as he followed but still didn't like it.

Soon they reached the entrance to the castle and noticed the door was destroyed and there were sounds of fighting up ahead. "Let's move up high. Gain the advantage." She said and he nodded as they silently made their way down the hall to the sounds of fighting, ignoring the sounds coming from some rooms, except Elt was blushing madly.

They soon came upon the throne room and knelt on one of the balconies, looking over the stone railing. They spotted Wilmarina and several other heroes battling and failing against a multitude of monsters. Michiko saw Druella in the back next to the baphomet from before and another woman who had green slime flowing down from her breasts with a blackened chitin like mass around her waist like a dress and red tentacles with eyes surrounding her body and swaying around as several other tentacles flowed around. "Who is that..?" Michiko asked and Elt narrowed his eyes before gasping. "Franny?" He said in disbelief.

"I take it you know her?" She asked and he nodded and held his tears back. "She was a childhood friend and…the rejected princess." Michiko nodded as she had heard some say such things and read about the royal family. "It would appear she's lost to us then…" She sighed remorsefully before focusing back on the fight as a large wall of earth protected the heroes.

Michiko saw the small child mage behind the heroes protecting them and nodded in admiration at the girl known as Mimil before the wall was destroyed, sending debris that knocked down many of the heroes and left them unfit to fight. Only Wilmarina still stood before Druella approached and Wilmarina gasped, struggling to stand.

"Your face would be much better suited for pleasure would it not? You want someone badly don't you? I've heard he's been spotted nearby~" Druella smirked as Wilmarina's and many of the other heroes started to gasp and moan lewdly as pleasure and erotic thoughts clouded them.

Soon enough the heroes were being changed and Elt cried while Michiko looked on in remorse, despair assaulting her heart. "Never can save or protect anyone can I?"She thought bitterly before looking back down as the heroes had finally transformed.

Wilmarina had become a lower succubus already and had a face of complete ecstasy as she shuddered while several others were various mamano and the mage had now become a very lewd looking baphomet with various tentacles all around and very little armor anywhere. Her staff had changed as well to match her new appearance.

She glanced over to Elt only to find he was gone, she looked everywhere before finally feeling her tanto missing and seeing him sneak over Druella. He jumped and prepared to stab her before he was stopped in mid air and held there.

Michiko looked to see a now monsterized Sasha standing with an odd looking elf-werewolf hybrid known as Primera along with a woman with a lower half of a snake and holding a familiar halberd. "Merse?" Michiko asked herself as she watched the monsters surge forward with lustful faces and eyes. "Elt~" A sultry voice belonging to Wilmarina called out as he was lowered and she looked to see a witch doing so.

Michiko growled and forced her body to move, ignoring the intense heat from the pressure in the room as she moved forward before and jumped, someone gasping in surprise as she landed, her sword digging deep inside another witch's body before she pulled it free and glared to the other's as Elt was released and coughed violently as Michiko got closer to him. "Elt? Stay with me. Keep your mind clear and don't give in."

Druella surged forward while the little harem of monster girls glared at Michiko standing so closely to Elt. "Please don't sully your face with such indifference and coldness. I can see it clearly now. You yearn for the man you once had don't you…you also wish to protect someone…a daughter." As soon as she said that Michiko's blood boiled. "You lay a hand on my child and I will tear your wings off your back!" She yelled in rage and breathed out hatefully.

"There's no need for such aggression. I just want to bring you happiness and your daughter happiness too. I could take you home, let you see her again." She felt a small hope but squashed it, she couldn't see her daughter again. "No you can't. My little Butterfly will grow without me. And if she one day learns I'm alive and have fallen to you, I am happy to say I know she will cut me down."

Druella looked at the woman strangely before smirking as she looked behind her. Sparing a glance, Michiko saw Elt writhing around from demonic energy and Michiko grit her teeth and tears pooled in her eyes before all that sadness was replaced by fire. She screamed out loud and burning fire surrounded her body, cleansing her of the heat as she suddenly struck forward toward Druella, who summoned a scimitar with a purple glyph and blocked the attack with a struggle.

"Why do you carry such rage? Don't throw away a chance to see your daughter again, maybe even your lover. You have such passion to protect others but why not put that passion to better use?" Michiko growled and pushed harder before kicking the Lilim in the stomach. "Silence! I can never see him again! He is gone! I am a failure and deserve nothing!" She screamed as her emotions finally poured forth and she attacked more and more.

Gone was the graceful and confident samurai and now here was an emotion fueled woman who had failure after failure hanging over her head. She yelled and kicked Druella once more before striking and cutting the Fourth Born across the cheek as she gasped and touched the cut, pulling blood on her fingers.

The kensei panted heavily and the fire around her started to flicker and die out and she gasped before falling to a knee, her sword clattering down in front of her. Her face and body were caked with sweat and she noticed the harem were crowded around Elt now as her eyes fluttered.

Druella smirked and got closer as she stared down at the strange woman. "It's far easier to just give in is it not? To let pleasure replace your pain?" The Lilim asked as her hand got closer and Michiko's breath got faster. "I…if it..was always easy…it wouldn't…be worth it.." She grit out and felt the familiar grip of her tanto before slicing up, cutting off two of Druella's fingers as she screamed in agony.

Michiko coughed and slowly stood again before she was pinned against the wall by a strong magical force and then tossed across the room, crashing into the doors quickly and going through them. She landed in a heap and coughed out in pain, some blood dripping down her head and coming out of her mouth.

She grunted and struggled to stand, gripping the wall as she stood before moaning in pain. She let out some tears from the pain and looked down to see her leg was bent wrong, most likely broken but she grunted and stood, limping and holding her side as she pushed onward and finally stumbled out of the door.

Her weapons were lost. Her supplies were gone and she had a broken leg and severe bruising and probably internal bleeding, there was almost no way she could escape but she'd try hard. She continued to limp as fast as she could, slipping and falling as her legs started to lose feeling.

Michiko had made it to the market before she collapsed and was forced to crawl. She could tend to injuries when she wasn't at risk of being raped or monsterized. She kept crawling as far as she could before she finally gave out, only having enough strength to lean against a wall. The last thing she saw was the beautiful moon in the sky before vision darkened.

Lescatie, Royal Throne Room

Many were in an uproar while the harem had actually stopped fawning over poor broken Elt as they tended to Druella. She was cursing herself. She had let her guard down and now had lost two of her fingers. She looked down at her hand wrapped in bandages as Mari worked healing magic as best as she could.

"Why do you obsess over this woman so my Lady?"Mari asked as while Druella had been in pain from the injury, she still wanted to help the strange woman. "When I looked into her, I saw so much pain and helplessness. She feels like she doesn't deserve anything, I can't turn her away. She does deserve pleasure and happiness. Especially after this."

"What do you mean my Lady?" Druella smiles at her advisor. "She managed to hurt me. The only one who's ever hurt a Lilim in combat is my father, and that was just training. If she can do that she deserves to have her pleasure." Mari just shook her head and continued her magic while the harem were busy fawning over Elt.

"Did she hurt you?" "What did she say?" "Are you ok?" They asked rapidly and Elt tried to calm them down best he could. "G…girls. I'm fine. Just a little shaken up. B..but I-I am glad we're all together now."

While they had that…touching scene. Multiple Kunoichi were sent to find the mysterious woman while some witches and other mamano were sent to check on various places in the city and recover slain mamano.

?

Everything was black…everything was black and hurt so much. It felt like her lungs were on fire and being drowned at the same time while her whole body was bruised and beaten. Where was she? What was she doing?

She slowly saw light and gasped upon seeing him again, his armor a resplendent gold and red as he pulled her close and kissed her lovingly. The feel of him so closely before she suddenly felt cold again. She looked down and let out tears and collapsed as she started down into his dead eyes and stained armor.

Suddenly everything was spinning before she found herself holding a baby, the poor thing crying loudly and looking up at her. Who was the baby…? Was it someone she knew? I…it was her…d-daughter right?

She gasped and everything became dizzy before it all disappeared and a loud voice declared, "Awake!"

Lescatie

Her breath returned and her eyes burst open as she coughed in pain and felt more blood trickled down her face. She looked around erratically before finally calming down. Her eyes were drawn to the reddened sky and she finally noticed how hot her body felt as she slowly stood and limped again, leaving a large blood spot in her previous resting place.

Michiko limped down the street that was silent aside from moans and cries of pleasure in nearby homes or panted heavily and continued to limp until she fell to a knee again, tearing off her mask and coughing out blackened blood before continuing, the mask hanging from her belt now.

Her whole body was in pain from her previous escapades as she tried to leave the city as fast as possible. Her thigh cried in pain and she collapsed again, seeing the bloody trail she was leaving and sighed as she leaned against the wall of a familiar but different building, it was the orphanage was it not?

She shook her head and her eyesight got blurry again before she closed them and heard someone walk up to her. She opened her eyes to see the Dark Valkyrie once more looking down at her in pity. "Oh look…come to gloat or something?" Michiko asked bitterly and held back tears as her leg pain flared up again.

"No. I've come to save you. Druella wants you alive." The samurai sighed and leaned back again before falling over and coughing up more blood, the Valkyrie shaking her head before picking up the woman and taking to the sky. "If you're gonna take me back I'd much rather prefer you just drop me instead." She said and was silenced when her broken leg moved.

"I won't let you die needlessly, and neither will Lady Druella." "Yeah sure…and I definitely won't be monsterized against my will as well." She replied and they flew in silence before reaching the castle, walking into the throne room soon as Michiko coughed violently and more blackened blood stained the carpet.

"Oh my Lord!" Druella called out and looked at the state of the woman while Mari looked down guilty and some of the harem looked at her in pity, Elt was crying again. "He needs to control that..." She thought and shook her head before she felt her body be put on a makeshift stretcher.

She heard the sound of a sword and looked to see Druella holding her blade. "It is a beautiful weapon." "It's more than a weapon…a Kensei train nearly their entire life and even then some are never good enough. It is not just a weapon but a part of ourselves." She explained before leaning over and coughing up a bit more blood as the baphomet, Mari and even Mimil were working on healing her.

"Why do you corrupt children as well?" Michiko asked as Druella inclined her head to Mari, who spoke. "The Sabbath embrace ourselves and the childlike wonders we have." "So in other words a cult of lolicons…great…as if having those back home weren't bad enough…"

It wasn't long before they had finished healing her so physically she was fine but now she was drained, unable or willing to fight anymore. "Come now Michiko. You're a protector aren't you?" "And look where I am. Failed to protect my husband, my daughter, my comrades, this city, and now myself. Should've let me die." She said bitterly and Druella huffed.

"I'll have no more of that. You will have pleasure now and be happy." Druella said and got closer to the samurai who just glared weakly before a hand was placed on her cheek and demonic energy practically flooded her body, making her hotter than she'd ever been and making her clothes feel uncomfortable.

Her helmet fell to the side of her cot as she writhed in the bed and Druella and the others watched, curious. However, it wasn't pleasure that was only present, there was pain. Pain as that undying fire confronted the endless flood, the two clashing in her body as she screamed.

Druella looked at the woman concerned, this had never happened before. The two forces fought to a stalemate which eventually ended in a mixture of undying human emotion and unyielding monster lust.

Her body shifted and changed, gold fur replacing her arms and legs up to her biceps and thighs, her feet were replaced by hooves and her hands clawed paws. Scales started where the fur ended and went up along her sides and to her neck while her ears pointy and furred. Her eyes changed to slits and held an alluring red glow and her head became slightly more rounded as fur and scales mixed along with a golden mane/hair while long antlers stuck up from her head, and she had an ox's tail behind her as some small orange flames danced along her fur occasionally. Her armor had twisted in that the chestplate now was more filled out in the breast area and allowed hers to be seen while her hakama had transformed to allow her inner thighs to be seen. Her sado had transformed to resemble more monstrous dragon heads with bright glowing red eyes.. She had a very compassionate and protective aura around with a face of lustful serenity while also having a beauty comparable to the Lilim.

She panted heavily and slowly opened her eyes, feeling extremely different as she looked down at herself. Her mind was clouded by lust but she still held much of her humanity. She grunted and moved her new body for the first time, standing up on her hooves before looking at Druella.

Druella looked back with an arched brow. "That's odd. Most go mad with lust immediately after transformation and mellow out afterwards." "I feel the lust there but I also have control, serenity…I feel complete…" She said in happiness and Druella smiled as well.

Mari however was studying the new form intently. "You've definitely filled out like most but what are you? A chimera obviously but what kind?" Michiko clenched her paws and swished her tail before she hesitantly answered. "I appear to be a Kirin. They are protective spirits and gentle creatures who never even trample a blade of grass. They herald golden ages for the wise and enlightened. They are also fiercely protective and fierce if threatened and could breath fire."

Mari wrote all this down eagerly while sketching down the newest Mamano while Druella hummed. "So you are still much the same as before?" "Yes. Though I feel lust I don't feel intense need to act on it. I feel much more at peace about myself." Druella nodded as the harem looked at the woman, happy they were like her now.

"Now what?" Michiko asked curiously to the Fourth Born. "Now we contact my mother and the rest of the Sabbath and find a way to your homeland." "If that is the case I should train your army." Druella hummed. "Why? Are all from your home as prone to spilling blood as you?" She asked and the Kirin nodded. "Some more than others. Others enjoy it or have left and seek peaceful lives. But all are trained killers."

"I see…in that case meet with Dresta and help her train my army so we may not lose many." The newly made Momano nodded and slowly approached before pulling up her sword once again, opening her mouth and spraying fire on it as it changed to reflect herself. Golden lighting streaming across the blade and the colors much more pronounced.

"It will be done my Lady." And with that, the fierce protector set out with a new purpose.

Now. I'm sure plenty may have seen this coming but I would like to point out some things in case they weren't clear. While she has been monsterized, it is similar to other mamano who can suppress their lust and retain their more human nature. Secondly a Kirin is a Japanese yokai which I took inspiration from for the mamano. It's not the most original but I still think it fits nicely. Next up will be a fairly calm chapter. If I made any mistakes, please let me know so I can correct them and as always leave a review if you have a question or wish to say something but keep it civil is all I ask.

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this chapter since it was pretty fun to make and such. I don't think I have anything else to speak about so I'll see you all next time!
