Haruo has gathered everyone he could in the cafeteria the next morning. "I'm glad everyone is here," he said, "I asked you all here because we're all going to overthrow X by any means necessary."

"Haruo, that guy can lift ten men with one arm." Kazuya said, "Not to mention, I don't know if you remember, he tossed you across the room like you were a rag doll. He's stronger than us."

"He May be stronger than each of us but he's not stronger than all of us." Hanabi said, Haruo nodded.

"Kazuya, Kairi, Glenn, if the three of you along with Hanabi and I join forces with our abilities, we might have a chance to defeat him."

"Yeah, but that Jet Jaguar suit is busted." Kazuya said,

"Have my mother fix it, if she needs too she can upgrade it."

"When are we going to do this?"

"Tonight," Hanabi said, "Haruo and I found him in an abandoned warehouse, he hasn't moved yet but he could move soon."

"Hanabi and I don't know what he's doing there, but it could be bad." Haruo said, "Umika and my mom will be back up on coms. Understand?" Everyone nodded, "Let's get to work."

Hours passed, it soon became night. The gang all headed out and arrived at the warehouse. Haruo, Hanabi, Glenn, Kairi, And Kazuya walked inside. Glenn looked down at the ground, "This is strange,"

"What?" Kairi asked,

"the floor, this is sand or saw dust, and it looks fresh."

Soon the door behind them closed and it became pitch dark except for the light of the moon flooding in. It wasn't too long before X came into the view, he slowly clapped his hands, "I applaud you," he said, "It only took you a few hours to find me, but good job."

"Haruo? Now?" Hanabi asked, Haruo nodded.

"Now!" Haruo and Hanabi transformed. Glenn quickly transformed and Kairi raised her sword. The five of them then charged X. X smirked.

"If it's a fight you want, then it's a fight you shall get." X said with a smirk as he charged them, Haruo threw the first punch. X grabbed his fist and then knees him in the stomach, X then spun and jabbed Hanabi in the face twice before he reached his right arm into the air and caught Glenn by the throat before Glenn could sink his claws into Xs body. X spun and threw Glenn into Kairi before he shot a blast out of his hand hitting Kazuya directly in the face. Haruo got up and charged X, then spun and kicked Haruo across the face. Kairi came from behind X and swung her head straight down at his head, X quickly reached his hand up and caught the sword between two fingers, he performed a roundhouse kick to Kairi's body sending her flying. X smirked as he still had a hold of Kairi's sword, he stabbed her sword into the ground and then turned his attention back to Glenn. Glenn growled and swung his claws down at X, X raised his arms and blocked. "Oooh, strong little dog aren't you?" He quickly grabbed Glenn's wrists and pulled Glenn towards him at a quick speed, X then forced his palm into Glenn's face and Glenn stumbled backwards.

While the fighting was going on, Umika quietly slid open the door and looked inside. Hanabi charged X, she grabbed Hanabi by the throat, he jabbed her twice in the stomach before he spun and threw her through a metal beam that kept the roof up. Hanabi grunted in pain and she dropped to her human state. "Hanabi!" Haruo said, he then stood up and attacked X. X quickly blocked all of his attack, he then sent several lethal blows to Haruo's body. He then hmgrabbed Haruo by the head and bashed his face into his kneecap, Haruo then flipped through the air before landing on his face and instantly dropping to his human state.

Kairi then stood up slowly and charged X, she threw a punch, X grabbed her arm and twisted it behind her back. She screamed in pain, X smirked, he then struck her back, a snap sounded as he broke her arm. He then kicked her to the ground, Glenn roared and jumped at X. X turned and sent a powerful blow across Glenn's face. Glenn whimpered and went flying through the air, he landed with a loud thud and he reverted to his human state. Kazuya stood up and charged X, X then shot a concussive blast from his hand that hit Kazuya in the chest. Kazuya grunted but stood his ground. X shot a few more, Kazuya gradually fell to his knees. X then started to punch Kazuya back and forth across the face. Eventually part of Kazuya's helmet broke revealing his right eye and part of his bloodied face. X then charged another concussive blast in his hand.

"No!" Umika then quickly ran in between Kazuya and X. X then shot the blast hitting Umika's body. A crack filled the air followed by the echo of the boat. Umika then fell onto her side.

"Umika!" Kazuya screamed, he then bent over and rolled Umika to her back. X smirked, he then walked past them out the door. "Umika! Umika come on!" He shook her, he removed his helmet and then he cradled Umika's limp body in his arms, "Umika come on! Stay with me! Stay with me Umika!" Blood then dripped from her nose and mouth showing signs of internal damage. "Umika!" Kazuya'a face turned red, he bit his bottom lip as he started to cry. He then rested his forehead on Umika's. When Haruo came to he looked over at Kazuya.

"Kazuya..." Haruo groaned and he slowly stood up. He walked over to him, "Kazuya..." he looked at Umika in his arms, she had already gone pale, "Kazuya she's dead..."

"Yeah..." Kazuya said, "Yeah no shit..." he then laid Umika down and then stood up. He turned and punched Haruo across the face, Haruo then fell to the ground, "WE SHOULD HAVE NEVER TRUSTED THE LIKES OF YOU!!!" Haruo stood up as blood dropped from his mouth. Haruo then spun around and struck Kazuya across the face.

"Don't you dare put her death on me!" Kazuya rubbed his jaw, Kazuya then hit Haruo across the face again, and again, and again. Haruo then quickly thrusted his fiat into Kazuya's chest causing Kazuya to fly onto his back. Haruo rubbed the blood off his mouth and nose. "It's just as much your fault as it is mine!" Kazuya rolled onto his side and looked up at Haruo with a glare. Kazuya then stood up. "I'm sorry..."

The next couple of days were nothing but silence. Kazuya sat on his bed in his room. He had an old shirt of Umika's in his hand, he occasionally brought it to his nose and smelled it. As he did he closed his eyes and imagined her next to him. Waking up to her every morning. And every night falling asleep with her next to him. She was the only one who saw things in him that no one else did. A soft knock came from the door, Kazuya quickly put the shirt under his pillow. He walked over to the door and opened it. Haruo. "Hey man," Haruo said, "I know I'm the last person you want to see right now but hear me out..." Kazuya sighed and folded his arms, "We're having a memorial service for Umika in the cafeteria, there's lots of good food and drinks, and everyone's there. Just thought I'd come by and invite you."

"Thanks, but parties aren't my thing."

"Alright," he said, "But you know where we are."

"Thanks." Kazuya then closed the door, he walked back to his bed and he laid down. He reached under his pillow and grabbed something of Umika's. It was an old music player. He rremembered how much Umika loved music. He put the earbuds in his ears and then turned on the music. It was Umika's favorite song A Thousand Years from that Twilight movie. Kazuya just breathed in and out slowly and closed his eyes. His favorite memory of Umika played in his mind over and over again. It was when Kazuya had first tried the Jet Jaguar armor on.

Kazuya came back onto the ship and went to his room, he clenched his side and fell to the floor. Umika then came up to him, she removed his helmet and looked at his face, "Don't scare me like that Kazuya!" She then kissed him, "I can't lose you okay? You mean the world to me." She sighed, "Why'd you put this on and fight?"

"Someone's gotta protect the world." He said, "I have to keep on fighting."

"But you'll die."

"If I die, then I would rather die fighting."

"No! You can't die okay?!" She looked into his eyes lovingly, "You have to keep coming back okay? Fight for me. Come back to me." She smiled, "I love you Kazuberry. Please keep coming back alive."

It wasn't long before Kazuya woke up. He looked down at the music player, it had died while he was sleeping. He rubbed his eyes and then walked over to the desk. He plugged in the music player to charge, he then looked at the clock. 3 A.M. Kazuya then left his room and walked down the hall. He came to the cafeteria, he saw Haruo asleep at the table. Kazuya walked in the room, "Fall asleep while eating?" Haruo groaned, he then woke up and looked up at Kazuya.

"Kazuya...?" He rubbed his forehead, "What time is it?"

"About three in the morning."

"I see."

"Baby business weighing you down?" Kazuya asked sitting down.

"Yeah.." Haruo said with a smile, "Haruka's a cutie, but she's a handful."

"Yeah...How is she by the way?"

"Haruka is fine, she's perfectly healthy. Yuko is fine too."

"Yeah...Yuko..." He sighed, "Speaking of Yuko...how did you deal with it...?"

"Deal with what?"

"...losing her...when Yuko was consumed...and after she was stabbed...how did you deal with it?"

"It was hard...honestly I didn't think I'd ever be the same." Haruo said, "Losing people is hard...I mean, how do you think I felt when I lead humanity nearly to extinction? Outside I looked the same, but inside depression and anxiety hit."

"...did you ever feel lonely?"

"All the time. But I didn't let it stop me, I kept fighting because I know it's what Yuko would have wanted." He sighed, "I honestly feel lonely now, even though I have a sister now, my wife, my daughter, my mom...I still feel empty."

"How'd you deal with the emptiness?"

"I'm still dealing with it now, I have no clue on how to deal with it. I'm sure that's something you need to figure out on your own." Haruo then rubbed his eyes, "Anyways, I'm heading to bed. You should too." Haruo stood up and walked to Kazuya's side, he pat Kazuya on the shoulder, "I'm sorry for your loss." He then left the room. Kazuya sighed, he stood up and walked to his room. He then walked down the hall to Miana and Maina's room. He knocked a few times until Maina came to the door.

"Hm...?" She said with a very tired groan.

"Can we talk?"

"Mm..." she walked out into the hall, he took her hand and the two then walked to Kazuya's room. They sat down on his bed. "Kazuya...Maina tired..."

"I know...just...I need you."

"Mhmm..." She then leaned forward and fell asleep on Kazuya. Kazuya sighed, he wrapped his arms around her and laid down with her, he pulled the blanket over them and he then looked over at Maina, she glared in her sleep which he found cute. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close to him. She then noticed this and she rested her head beneath his chin and she cuddled into him. Kazuya closed his eyes and then slowly fell asleep. His old love was gone, but now Kazuya Mafune had found a new one.
