Chapter 5:- Ravenous Hatred

Opening:- Touch Off - UVERworld

Ending:- from the edge - FictionJunction

-[This is a continuation from Wrath of the Titans.]-

-The sight of an ancient world filled with dragons and dark clouds was seen, the entirety of the environment was covered in mountains and bones, lightning could be seen flashing within the skies above and the roars of thunders could be heard from afar. The sight of an armoured tiger in red and white was seen running through the rocky plains as an armoured horse with the same colour design would gallop besides the tiger as the two were heading straight for the giant mountain up ahead. The two were none other than Execeed and Revol-Tiger and they were accompanied by a large army behind them, dragons, knights and many more were running behind the two Zodiac Gods. As the army was running towards the large mountain, a small opening would appear from the clouds and reveal a bright light that shined down onto Revol-Tiger as two gun-like cannons would get launched from the sky as it would then hit onto the back of Revol-Tiger and combined and formed the armoured cat's revolver cannons-

"You cannot stop me... This is my destiny.." -The sound of a girl's voice was heard as it echoed into the persona's head and her voice. As Revol-Tiger and Execeed looked up ahead, they saw the sight of multiple Greymons and Dinosaur-like monsters around the area as the Ravenous Dragon, Gigarex was leading them and the giant mountain behind Gigarex would explode powerfully and brightly as the army stopped charging to see what it was and as they did, a large shadowy figure appeared as it was a monster that nobody had ever seen before in their lives, the giant figure was completely black but it had bright red eyes and horns that gave it the resemblance of a powerful Overlord-like Demon. Revol-Tiger along with Execeed and everyone else would take a step back as they were in complete fear and shock at the sight of the giant monster in front of them, it had a menacing aura that caused the entire Earth to shake, a powerful presence that made the grass and trees around the mountains wither to dust-

"In the first age, in the first battle, when the shadows first lengthened, one stood. Burned by the embers of the Big Bang. His soul blistered by the fires of Hell and tainted beyond ascension, he chose the path of perpetual torment. In his ravenous hatred he found no peace; and with boiling blood he scoured the Earth seeking vengeance against the living who had their peace. He wore the Crown of Abaddon, and those who had tasted the bite of his power named him...Genesis.." -The sound of a dark and deep monstrous voice spoke to the persona and every one within as the giant shadowy figure would roar loudly as it caused gravity around the smaller monsters and animals to get down and bow to the beast. The giant monster's mouth was seen as it charged right at the persona's face directly but the image quickly changed and shifted as the sight of Hoshizora Rin was seen as she woke up from the dream-

Rin: W-What was that, nya...? -She was sitting up on her bed as she was rubbing her eyes and would yawn, she would pick up her phone to see the time and saw that it was 3 in the morning- So odd, nya... -She looked down to the side and saw her kitten sleeping besides her as she would rub its back softly and return back to sleep and as she did, the cartridge that held Rin's deck of cards within her school bag would glow yellow for a brief moment and would revert back to normal-

-Hours later as morning came by, Rin along with Maki were in school but were in different sections of the school as Rin was with Hanayo and her other friends as they were chatting happily in the school courtyard. Maki on the other hand was speaking to Arata at the club building behind the main school block and was holding onto her bag and a registration form that Arata had given to her-

Maki: Do you really think that I am ready to participate in official matches?

Arata: You are ready in my eyes, perhaps your brother might say otherwise.

Maki: -She chuckled softly- Cute.

Arata: W-What?

Maki: What you said just rhymed well. -She smiled at Arata as the man smiled and chuckled as well- By the way...Is it even a good idea for you to be here?

Arata: Nope.

Maki: I like how straightforward you are but at least try to hide it..

Arata: I'm only here because of you after all. -He said with a feint blush on his cheeks as he smiled at the young redhead. The girl skipped a heartbeat and would blush as she looked away from him-

Maki: Y-You dummy, don't say stuff like that..

Arata: Oh? And here i thought you like it.

Maki: Hmph!

Arata: Well, I gotta head out now. I'll see you after school, alright?

Maki: Ah right, same place as always?

Arata: Don't worry, I'll pick you up this time.

Maki: Okay. -She waved goodbye to him as the man would head out of the building and use the back door and exit the school grounds from there and as Maki watched him leave, she smiled slightly and would head up to the music room that nobody had used, upon entering the room, she sat in front of the piano and looked at the form that she had been holding on. She would then take out the three cards from the cartridge in her bag as it was Revol-Tiger, Burning-Souldragon and Guilmon- Red, but for what reason? Something is going on and I do not like the feeling..

-Back within the city, the sight of Skullgreymon was seen walking down the streets as Shinji was on its shoulder as he was riding the bipedal skeletal dinosaur and people were making way for him until the sound of a roar was heard from above. Shinji would look up to see a large green bird in silver armour. The giant beast landed in front of Skullgreymon as it towers the skeletal dinosaur by a few meters in height. Shinji scoffed as he looked at the bird and saw the person riding the bird as it revealed to be a matured looking girl in her 20s, she had greenish coloured hair with a pair of eyes that different sets of colour as it revealed to be Takagaki Kaede-

Shinji: Oh? Kaede-chan, what brings you here and what's up with you showing off your birdie? Is it new?

Kaede: Shinji-kun, Shirata-kun wants to speak to you.

Shinji: Hmm? Shirogane Shirata? What's the occasion?

Kaede: I am not too sure but he had just asked me to seek for your presence.

Shinji: I see.. Well then, lead on. -Kaede would then smile at the male as the giant bird would raise its wings and fly back into the sky as Skullgreymon followed it from the ground. Moments later, Shinji and Kaede would reach a tall office building that wasn't far from Shinjuku. Shinji got off of his dinosaur and turned it back into a card as he would then enter the building with Kaede. As the two entered the building, there were dozens of large cats and dogs that were armed with weapons, glaring at Shinji. The two would head into an elevator together and head up to the top floor to find Shirata. Once they reached the top floor, the door opened up and revealed an office. Two girls were inside the office as they were standing in between a man who was sitting on a large office chair, the man revealed to have dark black and blue coloured hair with white eyes as he stared at Shinji- So what's with the dark atmosphere..?

Shirata: Shinji, explain why does your sister have a God-King?

Shinji: Oh? You mean Revol-Tiger? It just showed up I guess.. I mean Kaede-chan also has God-King now too, not to mention it's The SkyGodKing Gale-Phoenix-Horus of all things.

Girl 1: Don't talk back to Shirogane-kun, you imbecile. -The girl spoke out to Shinji as she has fair skin and smooth dark-brown hair reaching her top back with no fringe, but bangs that cover her ears and lightning blue eyes. Her outfit consists of white shirt with a wide neckline and long sleeves to her wrists, slightly torn jeans, and a black sleeveless jacket open until mid-torso. She carries a studded belt with chains made of silver on her right hip, a leather bracelet on her right wrist, and a black bracelet on her left wrist. necklace wise she has two. one inner with a lightning and one outer with what seems to be a fish tail. her shoes are high ankle boots with tidied shoelaces coloured black. The girl was none other than Wakana Rei-

Shinji: Now now, calm down Rei-chan, I know that you have a God-King too, but don't come crying to me if you lose your Sheep to my Horse.

Rei: How dare you...

Shirata: Calm down, Rei. Shinji, I need you to find out why and how did the Tiger appear. God-Kings do not simply appear without a reason, especially when it comes to siblings.

Shinji: Is it really that important to you?

Shirata: Very.

Shinji: Alright then, I'll scope out whatever I can then. -He said as he would head to the elevator-

Shirata: Oh and one more thing.

Shinji: Hmm?

Shirata: Make sure that Nada Arata doesn't find out.

Shinji: I'll do what I can, Boss. -He said as he smiled at the man and entered the elevator as he would then head down-

Rei: Do you think it's a good choice to trust him?

Shirata: He has been with us ever since he got the Horse God-King and besides, he cannot run from us.

Kaede: Shirata-kun, you're being mean again..

Shirata: Sorry but this is reality, Kaede-san. The God-Kings are more important than anything else on the world. Even more important than my own life. -He turned his chair around and looked out the large glass window that was behind his desk and looked out at the city, he then turned and look at the floor to see a girl with sharp, gold eyes and long silver hair worn loose with some type of hair decoration. Her long forelocks rest over her shoulders and her bangs just reach her eyes. Her casual attire is fairly fancy with muted or dark tones. The girl was none other than Minato Yukina. As she was sitting on the floor, she was playing with the cats around her as Shirata reached his hand out to her and patted her head lightly- Very important in my life..

-After Shinji left the building, he sighed in relief as he would head to Akihabara. As Shinji arrived to Akihabara, he was greeted by a large number of girls who were giving out "free samples" along with brochures, after minutes of them surrounding the man, they would all leave him alone as he held a large number of brochures and tissue packs. He would stuff them all in his bag and would continue down the road as he was heading towards the school of Otonokizaka High School but as he was about to reach the school, he was greeted by a girl in brown hair who had a side ponytail and blue eyes. The girl was none other than Kousaka Honoka-

Honoka: Oh? A visitor? Hi there!

Shinji: Hi there~ I would assume that you're a student here?

Honoka: Indeed I am~!

Shinji: Well, it's still a bit too early for you to leave school, why are you outside the school grounds?

Honoka: I was playing "Hide & Seek"!

Shinji: Y-You kids still play that at your age, huh?

Honoka: So what brings you to my school, mister?

Shinji: Ah well, I was just walking around and I didn't realise that there was a school here until I saw you.

Honoka: Oh! So you're lost then! -She said bluntly with an innocent smile on her face-

Shinji: N-Not exactly but sure, we'll use that then.

-As the school bell rang, Honoka quickly averted her attention to the school-

Honoka: Oh crap! I gotta go now! Maybe we'll talk again some other time, mister! -She said as she ran back into her school, leaving Shinji behind as she waved goodbye to him with a big smile on her face-

Shinji: Kousaka Honoka, huh? I haven't seen her in a very long time.. -He said to himself as he recalled back in his original that he had met Honoka before. He would sigh softly and return back to the city streets to waste time. Within the passing hours after Shinji wasted his time in an internet cafe, he got out of the cafe and headed back to the school to see his sister but as he was about to reach the school, the man gasped as his eyes widened at the sight of a tall red dragon floating down from the sky as many girls squealed at the sight of the beast, as the dragon stood, it roared into the air as the dragon was none other than Shining-Dragon- S-Shining-Dragon? Then that means that Arata is there?

-Shinji saw Maki leaving the school grounds as she approached Arata with a smile on her face as Shinji could see from down below-

Arata: Any place you want to go?

Maki: Not that I have in mind. What about you?

Arata: How about dinner?

Maki: Dinner? Y-You mean just the two of us? -She asked as she blushed slightly-

Arata: Yeah...Or do you want me to call your brother?

Maki: N-No! Nii-san doesn't need to be part of this, just the two of us is fine.. -She said as she blushed slightly while standing beside him as she looked down to her feet and smiled. She then felt a somewhat menacing glare from behind her back and would quickly turn back to see what it was but saw nothing but only the other students walking by her. Maki sweated slightly in panic and confusion and she was feeling uncomfortable of the situation as she would get closer to Arata and would pull the sleeve of his jacket tightly-

Arata: What's wrong?

Maki: After dinner, can you drop me off at home...?

Arata: Sure but what's up?

Maki: I get the feeling that someone is up to something and that I am the victim..

Arata: Eh? Already on your second week of school? I guess bullies can't stop growing, now can't they? -He said with sarcasm as he then felt Maki holding onto his jacket even tightly as he saw the concerned look in her eyes as he would pat the girl's head lightly and pull her close to him as he held onto her small fragile little body as Maki's face was on the man's stomach. The girl gasped but did nothing as she blushed madly and her heart was beating rapidly, many of the girls around the two awed at the sight as some even squealed from the sight of Maki and Arata- Let's go. -He said as he held onto Maki's hand and had her ride on Shining-Dragon's back as the red dragon flew up into the sky and flew towards Tokyo. Shinji watched them fly away as he felt suspicious of both his sister and his rival, Shinji would then turn his back and look back up at the school as he saw the sight of Hoshizora Rin with her Agumon, staring into the sky. Shinji's eyes widened as he gasped softly as he saw the gold-like aura around her along with her eyes glowing slightly, as he blinked, the aura had disappeared and Rin was no longer to be seen as she was out of Shinji's sights-

Shinji: What the hell was that...?

-Moments later as Arata and Maki were in a family restaurant together, Arata was looking at the menu and was feeling uncomfortable as he was unable to concentrate nor even able to order a single drink or dish for himself as Maki was sitting next to him closely with a big blush on her face as she was lookking away from him while holding onto his arm lightly. The waitress was concerned for Arata as it seemed obvious that he was not pleased of the situation-

Waitress: U-Um...If you would like, shall I ask for the chef's recommendation for you, sir? -The slim figured girl with long cream-coloured yellow hair asked Arata-

Arata: Please do. -He said as he would return the menu back to the waitress as she would bow at the two and head to the kitchen. Arata then looked at the waitress and sweated a bit as he saw that she had a katana on her waist- ...Defensive purposes...?

-Maki would then pout and stare at Arata in a adorable way as she looked at him frustratedly-

Arata: W-What?

Maki: Why were you staring at her?

Arata: W-Why do you care?

Maki: Because I do!

-From hearing Maki's response in jealousy, Arata blushed as he would immediately look away from the redhead-

Arata: M-My apologies..

Woman: My~ I used to be like that with my husband back in the day~ -The older woman spoke to her friend after watching Maki scold Arata-

Woman 2: Oh my, well isn't that cute then? Haha! -The two older women would laugh as Maki would blush madly and face away from Arata as the waitress then returned with a tray of drinks for the two-

-From afar, Shinji was watching over the two from above the buildings as his Rayquaza was flying around the area. Back in the home of the Hoshizora family, in the bathroom, the sight of blood could be seen on the floor as Rin was seen sitting down on the floor with the shower on as water was being poured onto her body as she was holding onto her knees and was scratching her skin off with her nails while her eyes were glowing brightly-

Rin: You said...You would help me, nya.. You said you'd be my friend, nya.. You said...You said... You said! -She shouted as she got up from the floor and punched the wall besides her and caused her entire right fist to bleed and bruise up- You...You did this Maki-chan...You...nya... -She had a menacing glare as her eyes glowed from yellow to red within seconds-
