Flashback
In the midst of the water park and fundamentals of the resort, everyone was unaware of the darkness behind it. A hidden resort room was occupied by two figures.
One of them wore a yellow sweater and red skirt. A snail phone was in her hand as she sat on the bed. "Okay, you wait for my signal, then give them hell."
She then stood up and walked over to the unresponsive boy huddling in the corner, then kicked him roughly in the stomach.
"Good, you're alive; now you can accept the blame," she said harshly.
Only coughing and heavy breathing were the boy's responses. Grabbing a clump of emerald hair, she pulled it up so that his face met hers.
"I don't know how you could do this after Maki chose you to train up," She spat angrily. "You are nothing but filth! Maki deserves better than a worthless asshole like you."
Her yellow eyes met the boy's, and he gave her a death gaze like a cornered animal. As a response, Naru had her fists slammed into his guts.
"You've got a lot of nerve giving me that glare you fucker! You're just a pathetic boy~! A worthless, dumb, perverted, monster boy~! No one will ever save someone like you~! "
Naru continued to pummel the boy who could not do anything about it. He slammed into the wall as she stared at him, seemingly satisfied. "You'll die together with your fellow resort guests, and I'll make sure you don't escape."
Naru took out two knives and stabbed one of them in his right hand, pinning him to the wall, and did the same to the other hand. No matter how much torture the boy has endured, he has never yelled out in pain. Biting his lip, he only winced.
"You wouldn't have enough time even to escape this resort," Naru mocked. "And even if you did, do you think they'll praise you? Don't make me laugh, you're a worthless monster and will always be treated as such."
"I...I'll kill..."
Naru raised her eyebrow. "What? To kill me? Ha you can't even beat me, how can you ki-."
"...Maki..."
Naru shot him a menacing glare. "I dare you to say that again scum..."
"Maki...she ordered me...if we cross paths..." He returned it with a sinister craze look and a grin on his face. "I will kill Maki Harukawa!"
"FUCKEN SCUMBAG MALE MONSTER~!" Naru roared and swung her fist into his guts one last time before she turned around. She spat out to him, "You'll never get the chance, you'll die here in this hellhole."
He didn't respond when Naru left the room. The expression on Naru's face changed from one of scowl to one of normality after she closed the door. Around the corner, she bumped into a girl with black twintails hair.
"Oh, sorry," The girl said softly.
"No worries, just be careful," The woman replied kindly as she left. As soon as she left her sight, a magic circle appeared on her arm. "Now let's begin the bloodshed."
Chapter 2: Hinora Terrorist
When the main hotel suddenly exploded in the distance, Usopp, Chopper, Kirika, Chris, Sango, Megumi and Hime were startled.
"AH~!" Usopp screamed, falling on his butt. "A bomb?!"
"The hotel just exploded~!" Hime exclaimed.
"Shirabe…" Kirika mumbled before sprinting across the beach.
"Hey, where are you going?!" Chris called out, taking her eyes off of the tragic scene.
"I have to find Shirabe!" Kirika answered while not slowing down. Her route was suddenly cut off when a large object popped out of the sand, forcing her to duck behind its legs. It was a massive red robotic crab with its left pincer larger than the other.
"GIANT CRAB~!" Chopper and Hime cried out comically.
"Yay~! Here's some people I can play with~!" A girl's voice called out.
"D-Did that crab just talk?" Sango asked, astonished. An opening at the top of the crab revealed a small girl with tanned skin and blond hair inside the glass container.
"Meet my Experiment #55; The Nitro Crab~!" She introduced herself. Two more large crabs emerged behind them. "Created by none other than Suu the Ultimate Robotic Engineer~!"
"GHAY~! THERE ARE TWO MORE OF THEM~!" Usopp comically cried out.
"Now let's play~!" Suu announced. The red crab swung its large pincer toward Kirika.
"Crap~!" Chris cursed as she ran after Kirika, who was too slow to react when the pincer was inches away from her.
"Walking Point~!"
She was startled when the reindeer outran her in a new form. After biting Kirika's shirt, he managed to pull her away just in time as the pincer crashed into the ground.
"Boo, I missed," Suu pouted.
"Are you okay?" Chopper asked worriedly.
"Y-Yeah I'm fine," replied Kirika, managing to regain her composure. She blinked when she saw Chopper. "Wait, aren't you the same reindeer that was smaller?"
"Oi~!" Chris yelled out. "Less gawking and transform~!"
"We should transform as well~!" Hime nodded at Megumi and Sango in agreement.
"Transform…?" Usopp said bewildered. 'Do these girls have Devil Fruit like Chopper?'
Marie and Tsubasa knew that Shirabe was in the hotel at the time of the explosion. In fact, they would have rushed to her direction if it weren't for the tourist suddenly encroaching upon them.
"What's wrong with these people?" Marie asked sternly. "They haven't reacted to the hotel explosion."
"They seem so dead," Wannai said, terrified. Three tourists in the front row extended their arms out, and their arms morphing into blasters.
"EVERYONE GET OUT OF THE WAY!" Tsubasa ordered loudly. She, Marie, Wannai and Awatsuki quickly dashed out of the way. Yuko was helped out of her stand by Sanji and they went to the opposite end.
A large cluster of white light beams erupted from the tourists' blasters. In a straight line it destroyed Yuko's shop and a few other buildings in its path.
"D-Did they just shoot plasma out of their arms?" Awatsuki asked, startled.
"Are you okay?" Sanji asked Yuko.
"Y-yes thank you for saving me," She answered.
"Granzizel bilfen Gungnir zizzl~!"
"Imyuteus Ame no Habakiri tron~!"
For a few seconds, everyone was blinded by a burst of light. Sanji, Yuko, Wannai, and Awatsuki were shocked to find Tsubasa and Marie only different. A katana was held by Tsubasa as she wore a blue armor with blades on her ankles. While Marie was dressed in a silver armored suit.
Wannai, Yuko and Awatsuki blushed at the women's flashy suites, while Sanji stared in shock, his nose bleeding. "Am I witnessing heavenly angels?"
Despite not seeing the hotel's destruction, Gajeel, Levy, the three cats, Minori, and Iona heard the sound of the explosion.
"What was that?!" Iona asked alertly.
"An explosion!?" Charla questioned, startled.
"Fish~!" Happy was still drooling, staring at the fish.
"Is fish the only thing on your mind!?" Charla comically snapped.
"Something doesn't feel right," Minori said, looking around. She noticed that bystanders and coworkers in the aquarium froze in place. They then cranked their heads unnaturally at five intruders.
"What's wrong with everyone?" Levy asked, looking frightened.
An employee charged towards Minori without warning, extending his fingernail beyond his skin. Despite closing the space between them, Minori failed to react in time; before he could scratch her, an iron pillar pierced the co-worker, sending him flying.
"What was…" Minori blinked as she turned to find Gajeel's left arm morphing into a pillar.
"Don't just stand there like an idiot," Gajeel said, pulling his arm back. Despite the hole in the co-worker's stomach, there was no blood spilled. His body possessed a robotic quality. "Unless you want to die to these robots."
"Aren't you a robot?" Minori asked not to be phased by just being assaulted.
"You should be saying that to them," Gajeel declared while glaring at the other bystanders. Behind one of the androids is a blonde girl with a red baseball cap. A cocky grin was on her face as her hands were in her pockets. Under her blue overalls, she wore a yellow and red striped shirt, and blue jeans pants.
"Congratulations, you destroy one of those drones. You deserve a fucken medal," she clapped slowly.
"So you're the squirt behind these tin-cans?" Gajeel grinned slyly as she spoke.
Pissed off, the girl swung her fist at an android ripping its head off. "I dare you call me a squirt again!"
Gajeel just cackled, pounding his fist together, "Looks like I'm going to bust some skulls after all."
"Do you need any help Gajeel?" Lily stared at him as he took out a red sword.
"Nah, I give this squirt a spanking, you get the runts out of here," Gajeel answered.
"Right," Lily nodded in understanding. Iona and Minori (which it's hard to tell with her poker face.) were startled when the black cat grew larger along with his sword. Suddenly, two androids charged towards Lily. He sliced the androids in half with a single swing of his sword.
"Come on Happy!" Charla said while dragging the memorizing drooling blue cat by the scarf.
"But tasty fish~!" Happy admired ignoring the dangerous androids chasing after the two.
"Be careful, Gajeel," Levy said as he dashed past him and toward the girls. "We have to get out of here fast!""
"What about him?" Iona asked, turning to Gajeel.
"He'll catch up after he finishes her off," Levy replied with a proud smile. Both girls nodded and turned toward the exit, following Levy and the cats.
"Don't just stand there dumbasses, go after them~!" The girl ordered.
"Iron Dragon Lance~!" Gajeel's feet converted into a lance and swung it in a circular-motion like a whip destroying every single android in the room before they even reached the door. The girl manages to avoid the attack by leaping over the lance.
"So you're a dragon slayer?" The girl called out. "That's perfect, I always wanted to kill a dragon Slayer."
She closed the distance between her and Gajeel and jabbed her fist into his face, forcing him back a few feet. The moment she was about to strike him again, Gajeel transformed his leg into a club. "Iron Dragon Club~!"
In a moment, the blonde swerved her body to avoid the club and chased ahead, closing the gap again, ready to strike again. Gajeel blocked her fist with his clubbed hand and swung his own fist at her cheeks, sending her flying, but she managed to catch herself with a backflip.
"I guess you aren't all talk runt," Gajeel taunted.
"Well you're dealing with Hinora's Ultimate Jeet Kune Do master; Saraha Arnada!" She introduced smirking as well. "I'm going to enjoy messing up your face. Dragon Slayer."
Right after hearing the explosion, the two female raced outside to check it out. Only to also confronted with another Hinora terrorist who was blocking their exit from the indoor pool.
"It's nice to meet you," the woman said with a wistful smile. Her body was trembling a bit. "The names, Mistune Konne; Ultimate Con-Artist it's a pleasure to meet you."
"Aren't con-artist not supposed to mention that?" Lucy asked with a sweatdropped.
Mistune giggled, "Yeah, you're right~!"
"Is there a reason why you're not letting us out," Erza demanded, as she took out her sword.
"Oh, I have a good reason..." Mistune said drunkenly. Her body nearly fell forward before disappearing. Erza acted in time to block Mistune's brown sword from reaching Lucy. "I'll be the one to kill you here," the woman said with a maniacal grin on her face.
The sword she was using suddenly turned into liquid, phasing through Erza's sword and landing a direct cut in her stomach. Erza grunted in the mix of confusion and pain.
"Erza~!" Lucy gasped once she saw her staggering back.
"Lucy! Go locate any civilians who need help," Erza ordered without turning towards her. "I'll keep her occupied."
"G-Got it~! Be careful Erza~!" Lucy replied as she ran ahead.
"My, My you're that confident?" Mistune laughed amusedly. She extended her sword in a whip-like motion towards Erza.
"Requip~!" Erza's entire body glowed, revealing her Sea Empress armor. With her sword, she parried Mistune's whip, catching a whiff of the liquid scent. "Wait, is this beer?"
"Correct," Mistune declared. Her liquid whip has returned to a normal sword. "I usually drink a few of it when I watch you guys having fun. It was a hassle."
The sword of Mistune extended like a serpent towards Erza once again. Her armor allowed the scarlet mage to absorb the beer whip upon contact. She then flew forward closing the gap between her and Mistune and swung her Sea Empress sword aimed at her chest. A small rip appears on Mistune's clothes as she barely avoids Erza's sword.
"Here's a beverage for you, Beer: Razor Whip~!As she slashes her blade, she unleashes multiple scythe-like blades towards Erza, who has switched to her Crystal blade. She flung her sword deflecting all the beer blades, across the resort.
"O-Oi are you kidding me?" Mistune was stunned at how she switched weapons so quickly.
Erza rushed toward the stunned woman. "I will end this here and now!"
Mistune's expression started out as fear, but slowly changed into a sly grin. "I see…"
A sudden white blur flew in front of Mistune and clashed with Erza's crystal sword. In a matter of seconds, Erza was hit in the chest by another white blur causing her to skid back.
"W-What was that?" Erza asked, a bit startled.
"I may have underestimated you, scarlet knight~!" Erza's eyes widened as eight more tails appeared behind Mistune. Her sly grin widened. "Now you'll see how crafty a fox can be~!"
"HELLO~!" Lucy shouted, looking for civilians who might be hurt or scared. "It looks like everyone escaped. I hope Last Order and that guy escaped."
Upon entering the main lobby, Lucy was shocked to see a bunch of android bodies scattered around two people. Accelerator was in the center of the carnage, with Last Order close by him.
"Tsk, is this some kind of prank from the higher ups?" Accelerator muttered, clicking his teeth in annoyance.
"Hey, look it's Lucy~! Misaka remarked, noticing the kind lady previously!" Last Order chanted pointing at Lucy.
"Oh it's the blondy," Accelerator said, glancing without a care.
"I'm glad to meet you, too," Lucy grumbled in annoyance at his attitude. She glanced at the androids, some of whom were wearing clothes or had fake skin covering their bodies. "All these are…rob-."
Her thoughts were interrupted when Erza smashed through the wall between Lucy and Accelerator. Her lifeless body tumbled across the ground before landing on her stomach. Sea Empress armor faded away and her eyes became pure white KO'd.
"E-Erza~!" Lucy hurried towards her. She gasped in horror when she saw the injuries she had sustained.
"My my, she was so easy to deal with that girl," Mistune stepped into the lobby from the hole Erza came through. Lucy, Accelerator and Last Order were surprised to see nine tails wave threateningly behind her. "Is anyone interested in joining her?"
"Water Slicer~!" Juvia fires a volley of water blades at a crowd of android tourists, instantly eliminating them all except for a muscular looking android. It was able to withstand the water blades leaving only a dent. "Are all of the tourists here androids?"
"It seems like it," Gray answered. He got into his Ice-make stance. "Ice-Make: Hammer!" He summoned a large hammer made of ice and used it to pound the muscular android, crushing it instantly.
In the distance, they noticed more androids charging at them. "Damn how many of them are there?" Gray cursed.
In that moment, a red-headed girl sped past the two mages and headed toward the army of androids. Gray called out to her. "Hey, wait, that's danger-!"
He and Juvia watched in disbelief as the girl pummeled every android she encountered, and she showed no signs of slowing down. Performing a handstand, she kicked multiple robots around her. As she backflipped back onto her feet, she slammed her fist into the ground, causing a huge shockwave that knocked out all the remaining androids and shattered the ground beneath them.
"S-She's strong..." Juvia looked awestruck.
"Yeah,' Gray said in awed as well.
The girl glanced at the two of them, "If you keep letting your jaws drop you'll attract flies."
"Oh," Gray looked flustered. "T-Thank you for the help. We thought every person on this island were androids."
"It seems like it," She replied, walking up to them. She then glanced at Gray a little startled. "So, is there a reason why your butt naked?"
"CRAP~! I lost my swim trunks~!" Gray comically realized.
"I appreciate it if you don't stare at Gray's wonderful body," Juvia leered at the girl.
"It's not difficult to notice," The girl sweatdropped. "Anyway, I have no idea who you two are, but I'm heading to the hotel to see if anyone needs help."
"That's where we're heading too," Gray said, finding his boxers. It was his turn to glance at her outfit. "So are you a mage or something."
"Do I look like someone with a magic wand?" The girl questioned.
"Well, your outfit is a bit awkward," Gray replied. He turned away causing Juvia to give a deadly aura of envy.
"Just call me Cure Flamingo okay? Now hurry up," She quickly ran ahead with Juvia and Gray catching up.
Several large chunks of rubble were all that was left of the now-destroyed hotel. One of the piles moved after several minutes of stillness, revealing a light green sphere of wind. Suddenly, it disperses showing a boy with his arm extended, while Shirabe stood in front of him in a kneeling position.
"P-Please…" The boy slowly looks up to meet Shirabe's eyes face to face. "Y-You need to get everyone out of here now! This Island Resort is a trap!"
"A…trap?" Shirabe studied the boy with wide eyes.
"I-In just a few minutes, this hotel will blow up," He gasped. "A-All the workers, and t-tourist here are highly advanced androids c-created by Suu f-from the Hinora Clan. T-they're ordered to kill any travelers who left their guard down. Y-your friends are in…dang-"
He was interrupted by a fit of hard coughing. His mouth was dripping with blood. Shirabe quickly helped him up by putting his arm around her shoulder. "Are you able to stand?"
He slowly rose to his feet as he nodded. Though his legs trembled, he held firm not wanting to upset the girl too much. They limp towards the elevator.
'I don't believe he's lying. If what he said is true, then the others are in trouble!' Shirabe thought before addressing the boy. "How much time do we have left before the bomb detonates?"
"I-I...honestly have no clue where it is..." he confessed. "S-She probably used one of the androids here as a detonator."
Shirabe eyes widen in realization of someone she bumped into earlier. 'No way, was that woman…?"
As the elevator opened, a female co-worker stepped out. Shirabe stepped back, looking frightened by her cold stoned eyes.
"Commencing Graviton Bombing countdown," The woman answered automatically, sounding like a robot. When the desk lady's stomach began to collapse.
"That's the bomb?" Shirabe muttered, visibly terrified. She turned to discover her and the boy surrounded by robots disguised as travelers who had come out of their rooms.
"W-Why," The girl noticed that the boy was desperately trying to remove the collar. "Why does everyone I come close to have to die…? I-It's all my f-fault."
"Various Shul Shagana tron~!" Shirabe abruptly chanted. The boy was blinded by the glow emanating from her body, which triggered the android's instincts to charge towards the two.
BRRRR~!
With lightning speed, a pair of razors-blade yo-yo sliced through two androids' chests and torsos with ease. The boy was weak but he was able to slowly turn to find the girl, who wore a mysterious armor known as Shul Shagana. She had long rabbit ear-like compartments on her head where her hair was. Her yo-yo returned to her hand.
"Don't consider us dead yet," Shirabe scolded slightly at the boy. "There's still a chance to get out of this alive."
Slowly, the android's body contrasted as an invisible force formed it into a sphere. Shirabe quickly picked up the boy on her back and skated away from the gravitational android.
After the two came around the corner, a few more androids emerged from their rooms. When she was singing her song, the hair compartment opened up, releasing hundreds of small saw blades.
Alpha Style: 100 Saṃsāra
The boy was surprised how all the androids were immediately out of commission as the sawblades cut their limbs like paper. After defeating them, Shirabe skates through the corpse of the androids and heads towards the door that says Stairway B. The boy clung onto her back, gawking at the aftermath of her attack.
Once the two got to the stairway door though, a fist of a mechanical arm broke through the door, almost catching Shirabe's neck if she didn't skate back in reaction. The two were trapped as an army of androids barged out of the stairway, and the bomb droid from behind close to the elevator. 'This is bad, If I keep fighting then the android bomb behind us will explode...What should I do?'
"E-Excuse me, miss..." He weakly replied. Then he shows her the black cuffs around his neck. "P-Please you have t-t-to cut this off."
"What do you mean?" Shirabe asked, bewildered. In a flash, the boy leapt off of Shirabe's back and kicked at an incoming android, knocking it back along with a few others. Afterward, he collapsed on his knees coughing up a storm. 'H-he was able to do that despite being injured?'
"Please…I might be able to save us from the bomb, i-if you cut this collar off…"He pleaded.
At first, Shirabe hesitated, but he knew they were trapped by an army of androids and a bomb. She decided to trust him on this. Then she threw one of the yo-yos down on his neck. As soon as her yo-yo hit the collar, the graviton already went off, obliterating the hotel.
"He saved me…despite his condition, he saved both of us from the explosion…" Shirabe stared in awe at the boy. The sphere vanished as his arms fell limply at his sides. He would have fallen if Shirabe hadn't caught her. "Hey, please hang on!"
"Of course you're damn alive,"
Sharabe glanced in the distance at Naru. The woman glared at the two children. "You're like an annoying cockroach, ya know."
'Just as a thought, it's the woman from before,' Shirabe thought while glaring at her. "Were you the one responsible for this?"
"So what if I was," Naru scoffed. "What a brat like you are going to do about it?"
Shirabe was about to respond, but the boy pushed himself up and stood in front of her. "What are you doing?"
"Ha~!" Naru mocked. "I guess you haven't learned anything from me kicking your ass. What, you think that if you rescue this girl, she'll be grateful for a pitiful monster like you?"
"I…don't…care, as long as they escape…I'm satisfied," The boy declared quietly.
"Even if you somehow magically beat me and save her, Suu's androids and my sisters will kill everyone else on this island!" Naru mocked as she folded her arms. "It will be all your fault that these innocent people are going to die just because you are here. A pathetic, useless, wimp who's all alo-."
"Shut up~!" Shirabe snapped as she stood up and glared at her.
"Eh?" Naru lazily glanced at Shirabe.
"...!" The boy stared at her in shock.
"Don't just conclude that we're so petty and weak! My friends are capable of dealing with your sisters!" Shirabe declared while skating in front of the boy. "Despite what you may think, he is not useless! I would've died if he hadn't saved me! I won't stay silent and let you berate him like that!"
"You could have just as easily died in the explosion," Naru growled as her fist was engulfed in light green nuclear energy. "However, now I will kill her to add another kill to your body count.
Naru dashed towards Shirabe and swung her fist towards her. In her compartment, the shul shagana user summoned two giant buzzsaws and placed them in front of her as a shield. The collision between Naru's fist and Shirabe's buzzsaws began, causing sparks to fly.
"Your puny buzzsaws will not last against my Nuclear magic." Naru declared. Her fist was slowly pushing Shirabe back, but she managed to hold on.
The boy placed his trembling hand on her back. "A…Aero Armor,"
A light-green glow covered Shirabe's body, startling her a little. 'Magic? Is he an alchemist?!' Due to his assistance, she was able to slowly move her sawblades forward against Nauru's fist.
As she noticed Shirabe glowing, Naru clicked her teeth. "That worthless skill you have isn't going to save her!"
The nuclear energy begins to intensify around her arm, slowly overpowering the two. It didn't make it better as the boy was roughly coughing, causing the glow to flicker.
'He's trying so hard despite his condition…I can't let his effort be wasted!' Even when Shirabe put a determined expression on her face, she heard her blades losing momentum at the energy.
"HA~!" Naru mocked as she continued pressing on. She was determined to kill Shirabe in front of the boy. To demonstrate to the boy that his efforts and existence are a plague on those around him.
Just as Naru was about to finish Shirabe and the boy off, a sneaker slammed into Naru's left cheek, causing her to stagger back and release her fist from Shirabe's buzzsaw. "The fuck?!"
"Finally, we found the one who's responsible for the androids," Cynthia announced right after she landed from her surprise attack.
"Seems like it," Wendy said not far behind her. As soon as she saw the boy's condition, she ran towards him. Shirabe noticed and quickly placed one of her buzzsaws in between the boy and Wendy, looking suspicious.
"Who are you?" Shirabe asked, looking threatening.
"Don't worry, I'm a healer, I can heal him." Wendy answered, understanding why she was a bit tense.
Shirabe slowly lifted her buzzsaw and returned it to her compartment ear. The boy collapsed onto his knees and began to breathe heavily. Wendy placed her hands over his body, emitting a soft green glow.
"Oi Oi, I don't think it's a good idea," Naru warned, shaking off the kick. "If you heal him, he'll jump onto you and do perverted things to your body. Why do you think he's all injured like that? That perverted scum took a peep at my body while chang-."
"You're lying!" Shirabe cut her off, angrily.
"Oh, and how do you know I'm ly-."
POW~!
Naru was yet again cut off. But not by words, but a fist coated with dark red flames. She was launched back but caught herself by flipping back on her feet. "You know it's not polite to attack someone who's talking?!"
"You talk too much," Cynthia said glaring at her.
