Tsukune's eyes twitched open seeing Mizore facing him on the bed, her arms wrapped around him. Mizore's eyes began to flutter open, a smile was placed on her face seeing Tsukune who was smiling back at her. Mizore moved closer giving Tsukune a quick kiss, causing both of them to snicker. Tsukune turned off his alarm because of no school today only school clubs to attend to.
Mizore sat up on the bed stretching her arms, before she got up from the bed.
"mmm Tsukune want to take a shower with me?" Mizore asked Tsukune who nearly fell off his bed from hearing that from her.
However before Tsukune even got the chance to reply, Mizore's Cell phone was vibrating on his desk.
"Hold that thought... " Mizore told Tsukune who sat up on the bed. "Hello?... Kurumu? …... …..."
"Mizore what's going on?" Tsukune asked but Mizore's only reply was when she lifted up her index finger to signal him to hold on.
"Kurumu slow down and tell me what's going on... alright... I'll find Tsukune and we'll meet up at the newspaper stand..." Mizore ended the call on her cell, placing it back on the desk.
"Mizore?"
"Something's going on with the newspapers we're selling... Kurumu wouldn't go in to detail but it sounded serious... Shower will have to wait for another time Tsukune."
Mizore put on her long sleeved shirt, followed by her shoes, leaving Tsukune to get up putting on his school uniform. Mizore hopped out of the window from tree to branch landing on the ground, she was going to wait for Tsukune to use the stairs to get down, but to her surprise Tsukune jumped out of his window landing on the ground perfectly.
"Nice..." Mizore complimented as she placed a fresh lollipop in her mouth.
Tsukune and Mizore made their way to the others location, where they'd usually sell their newspapers. With their friends in view, Kurumu's worried/ angry expression turned to a relieved one seeing Tsukune approaching.
"Tsukune!" Kurumu shouted while rushing over to Tsukune embracing him, catching Tsukune off guard.
"Kurumu what's going on?" Mizore interrupted Tsukune's and Kurumu's moment.
"While we were away on Earth, some other newspaper club came in and decided to ruin our business by stealing our customers with a version of their shitty, ripoff of ours!"
Moka and Ruby were trying to hand out newspapers to bystanders but they seem interested in their competitors, while Yukari was counting the money they earned so far with Nick guarding the stand, besides what was going on the only people who were absent was Alexis and the president of Newspaper club Gin.
"Do you know where Alexis is?" Tsukune asked, Kurumu who was slightly distracted by the amount of customers they were losing.
"Y-yeah, she left in a hurry, something about an emergency going on... Tsukune we can't let these hacks take our business away."
"Calm down we'll discuss this at the-"
"Hahaha.. .oh what do we have here? hmm having a small pep talks with the lower spawn?" Keito asked causing Kurumu and Mizore to glare at her.
"What the Hell do you want?" Kurumu spat, causing Keito to chuckle.
"Oh just seeing a perfect example of what a newspaper club shouldn't be nor aspire to, but I wouldn't worry about it, you'll be out of business soon enough." Keito said placing her left hand on her hip.
Kurumu was about to charge at Keito, but Tsukune grabbed her by the arm keeping her from doing any damage on Keito, as she laughed and walked back to her stand.
"You Bitch we'll sell more than you, just you see!" Kurumu yelled with a aura growing around her.
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
Second Earth...
Alexis was a 1/2 of a mile up above the ground's surface, soaring through the ash filled sky, seeing the carnage on the ground, where ever flames did not touch, bodies occupied the area.
This isn't good, I don't see any effort of the Dark Guardian's Council on this side breaking, if anything they're more dedicated to continue the fight.
I got to pull out and head back... there's nothing I can tell Michael that has changed... - SHIT !
A energy attack struck her from the back causing her to plummet to the ground. On the ground she was surrounded by Ash's forces, both Dark Guardians and Non Dark Guardians alike. Alexis drew her Rapier while summoning an electrical element in her left hand.
A crackling of gunfire could be heard while arrows flew through the air and swords clashed.
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
Tsukune was helping Kurumu to making this news article something to catch the attention of the students at Yokai Academy.
"We can't let them beat us Tsukune... we just can't..." Kurumu said while combining two articles that seemed to spark her interest.
"We won't I promise you that as soon as we get this article we'll show the school once and for all who has the better paper."
Kurumu grabbed Tsukune's face pulling him down for a passionate kiss. She broke off the kiss hugging him tightly resting her head on his shoulder.
"That's why I love you Tsukune... Tsukune I-"
Alexis appeared from a smokey stream appearing out of nowhere, she was wounded, but walked like nothing happened while Gin walked in.
"Tsukune I need to talk to you!" Both Alexis and Gin shouted in unison.
"uh do you want to go first...?" Gin asked seeing Alexis was covered in fresh wounds.
"oh no, no it's not like I was reporting some sort of an emergency..." Alexis said sarcastically.
"Great! I'll go first!" Gin announced with a twinkle in his eyes, causing everyone nearly to fall over.
"Tsukune... we need to talk about the newspaper club..." Gin announced to Tsukune, while catching a look from Kurumu.
"There is nothing to talk about me and Tsukune are going to hand out today's article, to really knock the socks off our readers!" Kurumu announced.
Gin was about to continue, though was silenced as Alexis stepped near Tsukune.
"My turn!" Alexis yelled,pushing Gin on a chair.
"Alexis what's going on, your wounded covered in cuts and …. bullet holes?!"
"I'm fine, it's alright... Tsukune have you heard Michael at all today?" Alexis asked putting both her hands on Tsukune's shoulder, ignoring her strong grip.
"No... Michael has been usually quiet today..." Tsukune said as if he didn't know what was going on.
"….. We have a problem..." Alexis said slumping her shoulder releasing Tsukune.
"What's going on? Are we under attack?" Tsukune asked preparing himself for battle.
"No... this has something to do with the Guardian War... Earth may be involved soon since there are no Sentinels guarding the Veil..."
The door busted open revealing Nick carrying a huge stack of newspapers, followed by Moka and Ruby carrying their own stacks and lastly Yukari who was carrying a cart full of papers on wheels.
"We brought more papers for today's stand." Moka announced putting the stack of papers on the desk.
"Guys no wait!" Gin stopped everyone from doing what they're doing.
"What is it Gin?" Tsukune asked, with everyone looking towards his direction.

Above the Earth's Curtain
Republic Venator "Justice" 49th Patrol Flotilla
"Sir several more friendly ships on approach, scanning vessels... Republic Signatures Tartan Patrol Class Vessels are reporting for duty." The Ensign in charge of the communications alerted Captain Marlosivos.
"Is that all? Just Tartan Patrol Class? No Acclamators, not even Destroyer Classes?" The Captain asked
"We should count ourselves lucky that Command gives a damn about this posting... if it weren't for the war on all fronts I'd have my Fucking Commision for and Admiral Star. " Commandant Tesvick stated.
"aye sir..." The Captain replied, feeling the weight of command being shifted to him again.
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
Kurumu and Tsukune were standing by the furnace outside, with their newspapers waiting to be destroyed.
"That... Asshole... who does he think he is telling us to burn our work... then shutting down the club..." Kurumu said struggling with her emotions.
"Well he is the Club President Kurumu..." Tsukune replied while trying to get over with the task.
"Hey Tsukune... forget Gin, let's go hand these out."
"Kurumu?" Tsukune turned to face her seeing tears dripping from her eyes.
"I don't want to destroy our paper... these mean so much to mean!" Kurumu yelled causing Tsukune to flinch a bit.
"But... why?"
"Because I made these with you! That's why, and... and if I destroy this, It's like I'm destroying a piece of you... I won't do this, I can't!" Kurumu cried out into Tsukune's chest, which he slowly wrapped his arms around her back.
"Aw this is so sweet it's making me sick... you're supposed to be destroying these pathetic excuses for stories in the furnace." Keito commented, while her surrounding possy began to laugh with her.
"There's no chance in Hell I'm burning these!" Kurumu shouted while breaking Tsukune's hold, clenching her fists.
"Fine, then I'll do it for you!" Keito shouted causing concern for Kurumu.
A string of web appeared from Keito, grabbing the papers tossing it in the furnace, causing complete shock to be formed on both Kurumu's and Tsukune's faces. Kurumu went rushing towards the furnace but was stopped when Keito's followers grabbed her stopping her from continuing.
"NO! Those are our papers! " Kurumu screamed, while trying to break free.
Tsukune moved past Keito's followers with ease, taking them out with sudden strikes to their necks freeing Kurumu. Tsukune moved near the burnt papers, reaching his hand into the fire causing shock to appear on Kurumu's face as his sleeve was on fire. Pulling out the burnt papers, a black aura formed around the ruined papers repairing it to it's original state, before it was set on fire.
"What?!" Keito shouted her eyes widened and twitching from anger.
Tsukune handed Kurumu's the newspapers, causing a teary eye and a relieved smile, the moment between the two was interrupted when a web shot at Kurumu pulling her into a spider web trap. Keito transformed into a grotesque spider like creature.
"I will not be made mockery of like that, how dare you, you pathetic lesser being!" Keito shouted as bug like followers of the girls he knocked out began to surround him, Kurumu tried to free herself but was unable to move.
Tsukune drew Michael's blade on his back, moving at an insane speed he cut the web causing both Kurumu and Keito to fall off the Spider Web. Michael sheathed his blade quickly grabbing Kurumu who fell into his arms.
"Tsukune..." Kurumu said with a heavy blush, as she wrapped her arms around his shoulders.
"Kurumu we got a battle to finish, then papers we need to hand out." Tsukune said with a smile.
"Oh Tsukune... thank you..."
Keito got up lunging at the two, which led Tsukune to quickly evade by jumping back. Kurumu Wings sprouted out, along with her tail, and long nails. Tsukune redrew his sword, preparing for the attack as Keito and her followers surrounded the two.
Keito sprayed an acid web shot at the their feet seeing the ground dissolve, caused concern on their faces.
"Shit! Kurumu don't get that on you!" Tsukune warned Kurumu, who was ready to take flight.
Kurumu was about to jump to gain height, however Keito's followers tackled her keeping in place. Keito hacked up another acid shot, flying quickly at Kurumu at her face, Tsukune quickly took action slicing the wings off Kurumu's attackers, releasing Kurumu from their grip, Tsukune tackled Kurumu on the intent to get her out of range. As soon as Tsukune came into contact with Kurumu, the acid came into contact with his left eye, causing intense pain as he and Kurumu went rolling across the ground, each of them tumbling over each other several times before hitting a tree. Tsukune quickly got to his feet, screaming in agony has his left eye was melting away. Tsukune's left hand moved to his left eye yanking it out of it's socket throwing it on the ground, leaving a red glow in his socket to be revealed along with his right eye going bright red. Kurumu sat against the tree in utter shock seeing Tsukune saved her from the attack.
"You Fucking Bitch!" Tsukune shouted at Keito as he conjured an electrical whip in his right hand, while holding his sword in his left. Tsukune leaned back swinging his right hand back, then like a bolt of lightning the whip struck Keito striking her back against a tree. Tsukune's cracked a smile seeing the tree falling down, Kurumu moved her left hand to caress his cheek trying to turn his face towards him. Tsukune moved his head towards Kurumu's direction, Kurumu face of despair slowly turned in to a relieved one when Tsukune's eye was back and healing.
Keito struggled to get up, her face full of hate as she was just beaten by this supposed Human... but that was no longer the case.
"I will not be made a fool of by you filth!" Keito screamed out, while shooting a web from her mouth at Tsukune and Kurumu, with quick reflexes Tsukune raised his left fist up catching the web. Keito's face turned to a victorious expression seeing Tsukune was hit by her web, so all she needed to do was reel him in. Keito felt a vibration on the web but that was all Tsukune wasn't moving now Keito was worried. Tsukune grabbed the rope of the Web and gave a strong tug, pulling her closer to him while the excess web was burnt, Tsukune kept repeating the process pulling her closer, causing Keito to freak out.
"No, wait stop! Listen I'll make you a deal, you let me go and I won't report this to the Public Safety Commission... how about it?!"
Tsukune's face was one of a psychopath, as he looked down at his victim with a twisted smile and eyes that lit up like fire. Tsukune disintegrated the web he held, while quickly moving his hand to constrict Keito's air way bringing her off her feet by lifting her up by her neck.
Tsukune brought his head in contact to Keito's nose, breaking it followed by him tossing her in to the several trees making said trees collapse. With the battle over Kurumu immediately jumped on to Tsukune kissing him.
"Oh Tsukune mmph... You mmph... were mmph... Amazing!" Kurumu said between kisses, congratulating his victory.
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
Later that night, Kurumu informed the entire group about what transpired, Gin looked like he seen a ghost and decided to lay low, while the others seemed happy about it. Tsukune was in his room sitting on his bed just gazing at the window, waiting for someone to hop in unannounced. Michael's spirit form appeared sitting on his desk catching Tsukune off guard.
"I'm Impressed Tsukune, you handled yourself extremely well today..." Michael announced to Tsukune.
"Michael?! Where have you been, Alexis was looking for you and I could of used your help today!"
"Relax I was fully aware and predicted that Guardian War would have just worsened with the edge the Guardian Council had... but what matters today is you did well today in your battle... though I'm deducting your score, you should have finished that Arachnid Bitch off." Tsukune shook a bit when he heard Michael raise his tone on not killing Keito off.
"Michael... I didn't see the reason to finish her... she was b-"
"What? Beaten? Wrong! Beaten is Dead, now that she's still kicking, she'll go inform her friends in those Campus enforcers group, like we need that to distract us... no matter you'll learn that soon enough." Michael scolded Tsukune telling him the harsh reality of a Warrior.
Tsukune just looked down at the ground, having an inner conflict with himself and Michael's teachings.
"Listen Tsukune, I know it may be hard to understand... but make no mistake, our enemies will not give a seconds thought to kill you, you in return must show no quarter in a realm we all live in it is kill or be killed. Your enemy will use anything to hurt you, Friends and Families are their first targets to get to you, that is why you must end them before they take everything from you... Get some rest Tsukune..."
Quickly flying through his window was Kurumu in her usual attire, causing Tsukune to hop off the bed moving in to greet her, she was holding a basket of what looked like baked treats.
"Hey there my Handsome Hero!" Kurumu greeted holding a basket with the same colored ribbon in front of Tsukune.
Before him were a basket full of baked goodies, his mouth was practically watering seeing the delicacies baked to perfection. Tsukune grabbed the basket placing it on his desk before facing Kurumu who was already on the move, grabbing his face bringing it in to a passionate kiss. Wrapping his arms around Kurumu, the two struggled to breath as they were kissing deeply. Kurumu began to lead Tsukune to his bed pushing Tsukune flat on his back. Kurumu was on Tsukune's body grabbing his face caressing it, while Tsukune's hands wondered to Kurumu's rear, causing Kurumu to giggle. Kurumu placed her hands on Tsukune's chest pushing herself up to sit on Tsukune, she pulled her yellow vest off, followed by her long sleeved shirt leaving her bra on.
Kurumu: This is it...
Kurumu began to unhook her bra leaving her chest to beat heavily as she will finally be joined with her destined one. Tsukune quickly took of his top clothing and began to unbutton his pants while tripping over himself causing Kurumu to laugh.
Tsukune quickly got back on the bed, where Kurumu was already under the covers moving her index finger enticing Tsukune to come on under the blankets, as she discarded her underwear on to the floor, causing the blood to rush to Tsukune's head, while leaving a flushed look on Kurumu's as she held an embarrassed smile. Tsukune moved under the covers hovering over Kurumu, immediately locking lips while the two laid in the covers naked.

Several Golden Empire soldiers held their positions in a ruined building accompanied by three Guardians. Below them stood Lord Ash as well as several Dark Guardians, it was a perfect opportunity to attack, effectively cutting the head of the snake. More Golden Empire Guardians began to form up behind the others followed by a large contingent of soldiers preparing for the ambush that has been planned for nearly two days.
"Alright... On my go... one... two... F-fuck it THREE GO!" The Guardian Captain shouted, letting troops to pour down the hill crying out a war cry to cause the Dark Council forces below to look up.
"For The Guardian Council, For the Wielders, For the Empire!" The Captain shouted, followed by a rallying cry behind him.
Dark Legionnaires began to form up preventing access to their King. The two lines collided blood being sprayed in the air, the captain managed to cut his way through the line, making his way towards Ash.
Vengeance!
"ARRRRGGGHHHH!" The Captain yelled bringing his Pike at a charging position, Ash brought his blade to easily push the Pike's blade to the ground. Dropping the Pike, the Captain drew his short sword to deflect Ash's blade, which was a finer steel than his. Vaulting over, Ash the Captain turned around to lunge his blade in his back though Ash brought his blade in his Chest. Pulling the blade out, Ash quickly turned around swinging his sword cutting the Captain's head off.
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
Tsukune and Kurumu were sound asleep, though all they did was kissing they were content of just sleeping it off waiting for another night. Kurumu's back was against Tsukune's chest as the slept in peace. Alexis teleported in the room seeing the two in the moonlight under the covers with clothing discarded on the floor. Alexis was about to wake Tsukune, however Michael's spirit form appeared stopping Alexis.
"Alexis let them have the night, they're young and in love... they have a lot to live for... let them have a moments peace where they think this is how life in the future will be." Michael said with an emotionless tone.
Alexis just nodded, making her way towards the window.
"Alexis... you've developed feelings for Tsukune haven't you?" Michael asked stopping Alexis in her tracks.
"I-I..." Alexis didn't know how to comment on that, her first real romance almost happened with Michael, a long time ago, though he shot the idea down before her uncle died.
"It's alright... though if you are thinking of courting him, you should tell him, it's best to get it out of the way... you have other things to concentrate on."
"... I can't not right now... our enemies would use me and Tsukune against each other... and I can't put that on him... "
Alexis moved through the window disappearing in a flash.
