I do not own Rosario Vampire or any of the characters.

Damon leapt at Akua just as she avoided both of the stones he sent at her. Once he was close enough, she stabbed at him with her right hand and he leaned out of the way, his claws swiping through her entirely, only to leave no damage behind. He flipped, landing on his feet on the tail she had just left in time to see her freeze, staring at Moka, who was sobbing into Tsukune's shoulder. Akua fell to her knees, beginning to cry as well.

"I love you," Akua cried. "I really do love you, Moka. My beloved little sister. Yet...why? Why is it not me...but that man!? Why?"

"Sister," Moka said sympathetically.

"I won't accept this!" Akua said, pushing herself up. "I will never approve of that man being your partner in marriage!"

"Partner in marriage!?" Moka shrieked in Chinese, as Akua had been speaking, blushing brightly. "You're mistaken, sister! Tsukune and I aren't in that kind of relationship!"

"Moka, what are you saying?" Tsukune asked.

"It seems like my sister is quite mistaken about you," Moka said.

"Mistake?" Tsukune asked. "How so?"

"I don't know," Moka said. "I wonder."

"She thought the two of you were already dating," Damon said, walking toward Akua from behind. "Really now, Moka, you can't keep dancing around your feelings while also accusing Tsukune of being too wishy-washy with his."

"You..." Tsukune trailed off, glancing at Moka.

"She was denying it," Damon said. "But you two can work out your relationship issues later. We've got a little lesbian vampire slut to kill."

Akua turned to look back at him with an even darker expression than she had before. She stood slowly, snarling angrily as her magic energy focused around her hands. Then, she began to swing her arms rapidly, sending out arcs of magic energy, ripping the world around her to pieces. Tsukune shrieked in fear as he and Moka fled. Damon sprinted forward instead, flipping over and around the attacks before flipping over Akua as she slashed at him, focusing as he kicked downward at her. Then, his foot collided with her, sending her bouncing away from him. She flipped, landing on her feet, eyes wide with surprise. Damon smirked, taking the same martial arts stance he had used in their last fight, Akua likewise adopting her martial arts stance.

"How'd you connect?" Akua asked.

"Simple," Damon smirked. "I figured out how you beat me before. You weren't actually both intangible and attacking at the same time. You just extended your blade to your whole body, allowing you to pass out of the ground while slashing me. You were planning for our next fight by making me think you were able to attack and defend at the same time. That strike before that I dodged in mid-air while attacking you wasn't a real attack. It was a bluff. You just wanted to get closer to Moka."

"Not bad," Akua smirked. "Not that it makes a difference. This fight will end the same way our last fight did. You'll just die this time."

"We'll see," Damon smirked. "I didn't train with Touhou for no reason."

Akua narrowed her eyes and charged, slashing and stabbing at him rapidly, Damon ducking and dodging around her strikes, knocking them away at the elbow or forearm when he could. Then, finally he ducked under a horizontal swipe and slashed upward, only for Akua to pass through him. He smirked at the familiarity of the move. His tail lashed outward, slamming into her jaw and sending her staggering away. She spun back toward him, only for his fist to explode into her jaw. She flipped, landing on her hands and feet and launched herself at him, only for him to focus on his right foot, then punted her as she moved to pass through him, sending her exploding backward, bouncing along the ground before crashing into one of Alucard's tentacles. She dropped to the ground, couching up blood before glaring at him.

"How?" Akua asked.

"I learned just enough about the Jigen-Tou from Touhou to be able to counteract your intangibility," Damon said. "The attack itself is still as lethal as ever, but you can't just pass through my attacks anymore."

Akua grit her teeth, pushing herself up before preparing herself again. However, before she could charge, Tsukune reached her, kicking at her, only for Akua to duck under it and spin, slashing at him. Tsukune spun, a pair of jagged shield-like outlines made of light appearing along his forearms, a ball of light hovering in front of his palms. Akua's hand hit the shield hard, failing to cut it, and finished the swing without harming Tsukune. Then, Damon's foot exploded into her back, hurling her away.

"Give up, Akua," Damon said. "You've lost."

"I'll never give up!" Akua shrieked, standing. "Never! I'm the only one who can understand and accept Moka! I won't give her up to anyone! Never! She's the only one I have!"

"It doesn't have to be that way," Tsukune said. "The person choosing for you to be alone is you. You could have friends."

"The dead don't need friends," Damon said. "Unless they're Ling-Ling, I guess."

Tsukune glanced at Damon just as he exploded forward, shattering the ground under him, before reaching Akua and beginning to flip and spin, slashing at her with his claws, exhaling jets of flames, and striking at her with his feet, elbows, knees, and tail, all while avoiding her Jigen-Tou, Akua avoiding his strikes as well. Finally, he slammed a knee into her gut, lifting her, only for her to flip, axe kicking at him. He spun out of the way, drilling a fist into her side and throwing her, only for her to flip, landing on her feet and beginning to trade blows with Tsukune.

"These tonfa don't possess much attacking power, but they lock the dimension of whatever they touch, completely nullifying the Jigen-Tou," Tsukune explained as Akua was trying to push against one of his light constructs.

Then, Tsukune slammed a side kick into her gut, sending her hurtling at Damon, who smirked and slashed her with his claws as she passed. Her shriek of pain sliced through the air even before she hit the ground, blood splattering in a trail from Damon to where she landed.

"Got you," Damon grinned widely, turning toward her again.

She pushed herself up slowly, four gashes running up her back from her waist to her shoulders. She grit her teeth, snarling angrily and charged, only for Tsukune to once again intercept her, the two beginning to trade blows rapidly, Tsukune striking with both kicks and his tonfa this time. However, even wounded, Akua was still the far superior fighter, despite Damon's best efforts to beat martial arts into Tsukune.

"Your movements are inexperienced," Akua said. "You're like a beast that only knows how to charge." She slipped out of the way of a lunging strike, allowing Tsukune to go off balance. "You're not good enough for Moka!"

She twisted, driving a hand at him, moving to take his head off entirely.

"That's none of your business Sister!" Moka snapped just before her foot collided with Akua's head, launching her away and saving Tsukune. "Who I choose to go out with, you have no right to decide for me, Sister." She moved to stand back-to-back with Tsukune. "I leave my back to you. You'll protect me, right?"

"Of course," Tsukune smiled. "I'll see that I do even if I die."

"That's real sweet and all," Damon said, holding Akua, who Moka had launched at him, by the throat. "But I'm going to go ahead and take this little cunt's head off now."

Akua was now sporting dozens more gashes on her torso, legs, arms, and even four across her face, leaving her on the brink of death already. Damon pulled his arm back, claws extending slightly, then released Akua's neck as he slashed, moving his hand out of the way. However, before he could finish her, Tsukune's tonfa blocked slash, shattering but deflecting his claws away from Akua, who Moka pulled away from Damon. Damon narrowed his eyes.

"What the hell?" Damon asked. "I was about to end this."

"There's no need to kill her," Moka said. "You've defeated her already."

"We're not going to kill if we don't have to," Tsukune said.

"That little cunt almost split Mizore in half!" Damon spat.

"I know," Mizore said. "But she doesn't have to die."

"Have to, no," Damon agreed. "I'm only going to kill her because I want to."

"You're not killing Akua!" Moka snapped.

Damon's hands curled into fists just as Akua opened her eyes slightly, staring up at Moka.

"Jas...min?" Akua asked.

"Sister, it's me, Moka," Moka said.

"Mo...ka?" Akua looked over to Damon and frowned. "Fire...Devil."

"I'm not going to say it again," Damon growled. "Give me the bitch."

"No," Moka said.

"We won't let you kill Akua," Tsukune said.

"You're as naive as I'd heard, Tsukune," Gyokuro said as she and Kahlua landed off to the right, Damon, Moka, and Tsukune all turning toward them. "I must admit, I'm impressed you survived, Fire Devil."

"Don't be," Damon said. "I'm not dying from some Vampire Trash. Even one who catches me off guard with a technique I didn't know they had."

Gyokuro smirked. "We'll see. I think I'll finish you off first. And I'll punish you for harming my daughter."

"Be careful what you wish for," Damon growled. "You won't survive a second fight against me. And once I finish you off, I'll kill Akua."

"I won't let you hurt my sister!" Kahlua said firmly, her right arm already a dozen wing-shaped blades.

"I'd love to see you try and stop me," Damon smirked.

Gyokuro smirked, then shot forward, spinning around Damon's punch, then sped at Moka and Tsukune as Damon was avoiding Kahlua's blades. Finally, he kicked her away and spun just as Gyokuro ripped Moka's rosary from her neck. Instantly, Moka shrieked in agony as electricity raced over her body and she collapsed. Tsukune moved to stop Gyokuro, only for her to backhand him, sending him crashing along the ground away from her.

"I bet you never even learned what this rosary was actually for, did you?" Gyokuro asked, walking over to Kahlua, who opened a brief case, revealing a round device with a cross-shaped indent in it. "I actually discovered its secret by accident. I was just studying it on a whim, you see, and happened across the secret. You see, this cross's true power wasn't simply to seal both Alucard and yourself away. It's true power was much more than that. In the chance that Alucard was released, this rosary was created as a method of controlling his power. I worked for a long time to finally create a device with which I could control this rosary's true power. Like so."

She raised the device she had placed the rosary in over her head and multiple of Alucard's tentacles suddenly exploded out of the ground behind her, each of them with a mouth on their tips. Then, as soon as they had emerged, she ordered them to eat Tsukune and Damon, Tsukune only barely beginning to regain his feet, begging Gyokuro to give back the rosary. The tentacles shot forward, all of them roaring, and Damon sighed inhaling slowly. Then, all Hell broke loose.
