Michael continued his meditation waiting for the others return. In his meditation state he began to assess his strengths and weaknesses over the course of his lifetime. A thundering crash broke his meditation, forcing the ground to tremble beneath him.

His eyes shot open, feeling the pull of power in the air around him, Michael quickly stood up turning around seeing the current leader of the Crimson Dominion and the Dark Guardian Council... Ash... Ash wore a Dark Guardian Cloak and Robe, with it's hood raised concealing the top of his head.

"Aren't you supposed to be dead?" Ash asked him crossing his arms against his chest, giving him a wicked smile. Michael's form tensed up, the man who caused the war of the Guardian Council. "Traitor...Deceiver...Murderer... You disgusting piece of filth... you took everything that I built up and warped it into your own army of Minions, used me as a Martyr for my Dark Guardian Council to start a war for complete control. You will pay for that... " Michael's Iris shifted to a blood red, drawing his Elder sword.

Ash's unsheathed his Black Steel Elder sword which had a black aura around the blade entirely."Empty threats Michael, I've won the war already. You should really thank me, because of me you got what you wanted a now vigilant and militarized Guardian Council." Ash's comments caused a scowl to form across Michael's face. Ash laughed at the torment that he was causing Michael.

Like a bolt of lightning Michael charged at Ash's position, Ash moved his blade to block Michael's, the two Elder blades met causing the two rare swords to emit off some sort of energy discharge. The two engaged in combat, Michael and Ash exchanging expert like attacks. Quickly appearing right behind him two Dark Guardian Vanguards zoomed to his flanks. Michael's eyes scanned the area surrounding him more Dark Guardians began to appear brandishing their weapons.

"This man dishonors the memory of our founder! Kill Him!"Ash announced to the appearing Dark Guardians.

"For Michael!" A Dark Guardian from the crowd shouted.

Quickly sticking his sword in the ground, Michael used the palm of his right hand taking off the blood on his forehead clapping his palms together he conjured a blood Elder blade, with his right hand he gripped the handle of his Elder Black steel blade. Now brandishing two swords he looked among the crowd, They all readied their weapons, several broke off from the crowd to engage Michael. The first one to reach him was a cloaked Dark Guardian with a spear, moving his pole arm to strike Michael, Michael quickly deflected the quick attacks. While engaged with the proficient spear wielding Dark Guardian, another one vaulted the spear wielding Dark Guardian armed with two Daggers, holding them in a reverse motion.

Michael brought his blade down shattering the Dark Guardian's blades after his quick barrage of attacks, the blade went down in to his neck, coughing up blood the Dark Guardian collapsed. The one with a spear drew a short sword attacking Michael with now a Spear and a sword. Shifting the spear down across the attacker's short sword, Michael plunged his Blood Elder blade in to the chest of his foe igniting the blade, his Elder black steel blade went through the throat of the attacker. Several Waves charged at Michael, quickly reacting to his surroundings Michael's defensive instincts kicked in to high gear, his pupil dilated in to a reptilian shape.

Dispatching the first wave of attackers trying to surround him, the second and third wave got a few hits on him, their training pulled off as they were brutal and efficient. The fourth and fifth wave moved in to support the others, A wave of arcane attacks were thrown at Michael in a perfect order ranging from different variations Michael raising up his defenses taking a beating, while in a defensive form several stalker type Dark Guardians who excelled at quick attacks and fast movements, charged in plunging their short swords into Michael, throwing him off guard. Acting quick Michael locked in his form while the waves of Guardians charged in. Several dozen cracks could be heard all over Michael's body, his eyes turned to a glowing red with no white to be found his pupil grew slightly wider in it's reptilian form.

Several hundred bone fragments ejected form Michael's body striking dozens of Dark Guardians exploding in the following second after. Michael in his Rage form, began charging at his apprentices striking several down. Bodies began to cover the ground while blood pooled around him. Screaming and cries of anguish echoed around Michael. Oblivious to his rage that consumed him he ignored the fact that he was killing his own apprentices. Michael tossed his blood Elder blade at Ash who stepped out of the way as the sword plunged into the ground by his foot. Ash scoffed seeing as Michael missed, but Michael's eyes looked at the sword, with in a second the Elder blade detonated with Ash and a few Dark Guardians being caught in the process.

Striking the ground he threw everyone surrounding him up in the sky, locking on to his foes he unleashed a barrage of lightning with his free left hand shocking them with his torrents of blue and purple colored lightning. Michael like the attacks of his lightning moved at inhumane speeds, seemingly disappearing and cutting down more and more of his apprentices. Michael engulfed the area around him in fiery inferno scorching both body and ground, drying up pools of blood.

The battle was a slaughter Michael in his rage form continued to pile up the body count, driving and countering his sword into his foes. A Dark Guardian who got too close swung her axe at Michael only to be stopped when Michael manipulated the gravity around her neck breaking it with a swift notion. Conjuring a storm, he used the storm's lightning as power attacks to drive them in to the defenses of his attackers. For his foes every attack they got in Michael would retailiate with brutal responses destroying their defenses and going for the kill. This was no longer of battle it was a slaughter, the attackers were now the defenders, each of them expelling their energy to go into their own rage form charged at Michael.

Throwing his sword up in the air the Elder Blade floated in mid air pointing down, the encircling Dark Guardians charged in to break Michael's defenses and strike him down. Michael threw a combination of several Elemental and energy attacks at his floating blade, each of the orbs orbited around the sword's form. With one final attack Michael used the storms lightning and directing at his sword. At his command he used the sword to deflect both the lightning and the orbiting attacks to strike the ground around him, destroying any chance of the Dark Guardians attacks and their defenses. With none in sight the blade fell down into the ground in front of Michael. Grabbing the blade by it's handled he pried the blade from the ground.

Sensing the attack directly behind him, Michael raised his arm allowing a short blade to go under his arm, while Michael with his right hand plunged his blade behind him striking the Dark Guardians abdomen then pulling up in to his chest. A gagging cough came from his attacker, Michael while still in his rage form turned his head around to look at his attacker, his red glowing eyes looked at his opponent. Within seconds his mind began to process who it was... his eyes widened with regret seeing it was none other than... Kasano... pulling the blade from Kasano, Michael moved his left hand behind his head and his right against his wound across his chest.

Laying him down on the scorched ground, Kasano's eyes looked at Michael full of pain. Michael's eyes reverting back to his original, Kasano's eyes closed and his body became limp in Michael's arms.

"No... not you..." Reality snapped back in his mind seeing the dead bodies of all of his students, apprentices, and friends.

Kasano scanned the area of the room seeing where the voice was coming from drawing his short sword, he prepared for imminent combat, Luise could be seen frantically picking up her clothes off the floor and then holding it against her chest. A white serpent like creature zoomed across the corners shutting the hatches to the window and taking out the fire pits with the speed it was moving at, the room began to become darkened.

Luise's eyes began to scan the area her night vision kicking up to high gear, Kasano shifted his eyes to his second form able to see past the darkness.

"Kasano... what's going on?" Luise whispered with Kasano quickly saying shhhhh!

A gurgling growl could be heard around them, Kasano unable to lock on the creature, Luise's tail began to straighten up and become messed up as she felt a hot breath of air on her form. Luise flipped out throwing her clothes in mid air ducking behind a desk, Kasano turned around to see a white Japanese dragon igniting his flames towards Kasano, who jumped back with half his body across was on fire, Kasano extinguished the fire by using his own aura to snuff the flames out.

The dragon charged Kasano overturning tables and furniture alike, while Kasano zigzagged to his opponent, hoping to throw the dragon off. The Dragon got close opening it's mouth to let loose another torrent of fire, though Kasano smashed his mouth shut with the punch he threw, effectively slamming the dragon down causing an explosive belch coming from the dragon, groaning.

The dragon's tail slapped Kasano towards Luise, throwing him face full on her boobs, even though they were dealing with a fire breathing dragon, Luise on the ground kept Kasano's head in place, wrapping her legs around his body.

"Oh Kasano ! You beast! ;3" Luise shrieked feeling his skin on hers, Kasano pulled himself up with a bloody nose and a face with great embarrassment.

The Dragon cut their moment together short smashing the desk out of the way, Kasano grabbed Luise by the shoulders rolling out of the way, of the rampaging Dragon. The final role let Luise who was still completely naked, on top of Kasano straddling his hips.

"mmm me being on top... Okay I'll try out this way!" Luise gigled before slowly leaning down to come into contact with Kasano's lips.

(Is she serious right now?!)

Kasano eyes widened seeing the Serpent Dragon behind Luise preparing for yet another fire attack, Luise's cat ear's began to show twitching, a scowl formed on Luise's face. Seconds late the Dragon was hit with an electrical punch from Luise at an inhumane speed.

"Do you mind?! You're ruining my moment here!" Luise screamed at the Dragon who was toppled over a book shelf from Luise's strike.

"Dii Mindah! Ruth hi miil!" The Dragon shouted at Luise, which prompted her to glare at the dragon sticking her tongue out in mockery.

(Translation: My Knowledge! Damn you woman!)

The Dragon gave a very vicious and vocal growl at the two, Kasano got up readying to get Luise to the floor in case another stream of fire came at them. The Dragon inhaled a large intake of air, while the two prepared for what was coming at them.

"FUS...RO..." The Dragon said holding his breath in while preparing the next word phrase, though that word caused Kasano to realize what he was about to do.

(Oh no...)

"DAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" An immense shockwave was released from the Dragon's throat towards Kasano and Luise throwing everything in it's wake, the wave hit Luise and Kasano. Luise rocketed towards Kasano, while Kasano smashed against the concrete wall, smashing the wall around him.

Luise hit the floor unconscious, while Kasano shakingly fell to his feet, still feeling the power surging through him through that attack. Kasano remembered the knowledge he read igniting both his palms he dashed across the turnover shelves, moving his hand in to a striking position, Kasano collided with the dragon with a flash of fire hitting his foe.

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

Michael resumed his meditation as the Illusions disappeared from the ground, the very illusions he killed with familiar faces. Michael ducked his head when an a stream of lightning nearly struck him. Turning around Michael drew his sword to meet his foe. Though has soon as he turned around the blades were already locked.

"You think it's so simple..." A familiar voice called out to Michael, so familiar it was almost frightening.

"You-" Immediate realization hit Michael, this man was dressed like him and had his sword... then realized it was him. "What is this another test?!" Michael shouted at his copy.

"Your inner Demon, everything you despise about you is a wake up call! Your fears, failures, defeats, regrets, and rage!" The phantom yelled at Michael, who was readying to face his 'inner Demon'.

"….. Is that so?"

"You're incomplete, a shadow of what you could be, a HUSK!"The phantom yelled at Michael meeting blades with him again, the swords reacting causing sparks to be thrown around.

Each attack made was a pointless strategy, for Michael was fighting a mirror version of himself, whatever Michael threw at him, the other knew how to counter and send it right back.

"The 'Master' has been running away from this battle for a long time, face your fears!" The dark copy of himself taunted him.

Michael felt a dark pull speeding right behind him, breaking the sound barrier, quickly moving out of the way. The Great Darkness Fallen form joined the struggle."HAHAHA! YOUR GREATEST FEARS!"

Y.o.u.R. S!ns and Regrets fuel my power!

Turning his attention to the Great Darkness he locked blades with his Gladius and Spatha, moving his blade as fast as he can to find a chink in the Great Darkness's defenses, while Michael defended against his other.

"YOU CAN'T FIGHT ME AND YOURSELF MICHAEL!" The taunts that the Great Darkness brought to Michael, continued to only anger him.

Concentrating on the Great Darkness, he gripped the blade while kicking his other self back while executing a flurry attack on the Great Darkness, the flurry attack used both physical and spiritual attacks as soon as he laid the first strike his spiritual form laid another strike, with the Physical continuing on from that in a pattern of fourteen strikes.

With his phantom on his feet again, Michael was fighting the combined effort of both the Great Darkness and his phantom. The ground cracked around Michael as he was building up his spiritual energy, his eyes flickering a bright glowing whitish blue, Michael was now tapping in to the Elder Dragon's power.

Michael zoomed in on the two, fighting them with fierce effectiveness, lightning strikes began forming from the sky striking Michael's body which added a elemental upgrade to his attacks.

(Sexual content ahead)

Tsukune and Alexis both in the bed, we're kissing passionately and with great intensity, it was a battle between the two one moment Alexis would be on top of Tsukune holding him down, though the next chance Tsukune got, he'd put Alexis under him.

When Alexis found her way on top and straddling Tsukune's hips, Tsukune with a devious expression grabbed Alexis bindings on both around her chest and pelvic region and ripped the bindings off causing Alexis to yelp in shock, Tsukune once again put her under him kissing her neck slowly moving down. Alexis moved her right palm of her hand to Tsukune's mouth shifting his head up for a second, while her left arm pressed up aggainst her chest to conceal her nipples while her legs crossed each other to prevent access. Alexis took a deep inhale, breathing out slowly she removed her hand from Tsukune.

'Tsukune... I'm ready." Alexis said smiling at Tsukune with a tears slowly traveling down her cheeks, dropping to the mattress.

Alexis ignited her aura black and purple aura while a Red flame like aura engulfed Tsukune's body Tsukune entered Alexis while Alexis was forming a spiritual bond with Tsukune again, though at the same time Alexis winced from the new experience she was feeling.

Whatever doubts she had were gone, as she found a new experience within herself, something that was just unlocked. Now for Alexis this unlocked something in her, something primal... for a moment she felt concerned that this was not the right direction to take... what would the others say to her, however she shoved those questions down as she just concentrated on Tsukune.

"AH!...Tsukune...mmm..." Alexis was trying to situate herself on the mattress with Tsukune continuing to plow into her.

Holy shit... she's really tight...guh..

Alexis's walls began to tighten around Tsukune, tightening his grip on her hips, he began to move her body trying to progress the rhythm of their love making. Alexis was biting her lip with noises escaping her mouth, Tsukune tried to put on a brave face telling her he was doing good.

"uh...huh...ah... troubleeszz?" Alexis tried to word out, to Tsukune seeing him straining himself as he kept trying to keep a steady position.

"ha..ha. No, just you're body is kind of tightening up on me... if that keeps up I won't last long..." Tsukune wasn't joking a part of him just wanted to reach his climax because the tightness of her body felt amazing.

"Is that so..ooh, well Tsukuun...AYYYY!" Alexis hit her Orgasm her pupils shifting in to a reptilian shape dilating and her body convulsing involuntarily thrusting her hip to meet his, and for Tsukune her body tightened up even more with the sensation of the heat.

Oh FUCK...

Both Tsukune and Alexis's eyes nearly rolled in the back in their heads, their shared bond increased the feeling of the two causing the orgasmic bliss to increase if that was even possible. Tsukune dick twitching, after it was finished shooting in to her.

Tsukune lowered himself on to her body, which was like laying on a heat pad, Alexis's hand stroking his head. Tsukune took a deep breath grabbing her by the waist and rolled on his back putting her on top.

Alexis sighed running her fingers along Tsukune's hair while leaning down to kiss him. "aahhh, ready to go again?" Alexis asked Tsukune with a rejuvenated tone in her voice, Tsukune just gave a quick nod as he was tapping in to his energy to give him a boost.

"Uh—Alexis?" Tsukune called Alexis name while she continued to ride him, his body continuing to tense up as Alexis's body was still adjusting to him.

"Y-yeah?" She answered with a gasp trying to maintain at least some composure in her voice.

"Do you think we should be doing this when we're in this area?" Tsukune asked seeing as they were technically screwing around while danger could be lurking around in this world.

"It'sss fine... I would've detected anyone who entered the building." Alexis put Tsukune mind at ease stating she wouldn't be doing this if she knew it wasn't safe. Trusting Alexis he moved his hands to Alexis's rear end grabbing a hold both ass cheeks, her eyes concentrated on his with hunger and picked up the pace grindng him as she rode him.

Empty shell casings began to roll down destroyed stairs as bodies began tumble down the hill with the young fighters trapped in a desolate building, fighting off waves of Hell Spawn and supporters alike. Moka was still trying to get used to having a blade while using her lethal hand to hand techniques. Kyoko leaned her left shoulder against a windowsill, firing round after round into the center mass of any hell spawn that she saw fit. Omote fired arrow after arrow through the front door, killing summoned soul after summoned soul. The building they were in appeared to be a two story office building Kurumu moved in to keep any Hell Spawn away from the windows, as they got in anyway they could.

Liz strangely enough was sent back, Ruby and Yukari were frequently checking up on everyone to see if they needed healing and on occasion if anyone broke through they'd shore up as support with their elemental attacks.

Mizore was taking a break trying to cool down from the heat that she was suffering from. Mizore kept Tsukune in her heart and mind to bring her relief, like Moka, Omote, Kyoko, Ruby, Kurumu, and the perverted Yukari, they all missed Tsukune as he was separated from them.

(Mizore: Oh Tsukune... Please be okay...)

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

Kasano was dashing from wall to wall of the archives delivering swift flaming kicks to the Serpent Dragon, while evading every strike the Dragon tried to deliver. The Dragon knew it wasn't going to keep taking the continuous attacks that Kasano was expertly executing, the Dragon curled up it's very body vibrating and tensing up. Seeing the Dragon starting to curl up and not knowing what the Dragon had planned, Kasano kicked off from the wall aiming for the Dragon. The entire area around the Dragon exploded with white feathers and dust.

From the dust was a white cloaked Warlord, his face concealed with a metal mask. The enemy had drawn his Katana blade, Kasano immediately reacted drawing his short blade. The Elite Warlord held his blade in a Te Ura Gasumi stance, readying to strike the incoming Kasano. A swift cut sliced Kasano's chest, Kasano felt the stinging cold sensation of the blade cut against his scar he received in a fight against Jon. Clenching his old wound he flipped over the Elite Warlord, his Red eyes scanning the Katana wielding Warlord.

Kasano looked at the Katana seeing it was a white tempered steel, painted with fresh blood traveling down the blade. The Elite Warlord moved his stance of his sword in to a Migi Gedan, Kasano flipped his blade around in to a reverse direction. Charging at each other the clash of the blades created very bright sparks lighting up the room, the two engaged with impressive skill and speed. Kasano had to rely on his quick reflexes and speed to counteract with the expert strikes from the Elite Warlords blade attacks.

It was clear to Kasano that the Elite Warlord, had knowledge of the Sword Mastery. It took several struggles to lock blades and try to get in a hit, but the Elite Warlord was not giving ground for that strike that Kasano so desperately needed.

The Elite reeled his blade back striking at top speed, while Kasano blocked with his blade, however the durability of Kasano's steel gave out breaking in two. Kasano reached with in his uniform throwing a wave of knives directly at the Warlord causing him to react by blocking them, taking the opportunity Kasano zoomed in and gut checked the Elite sending him tumbling towards the ground. The Elite quickly recovered getting back to his feet, Kasano was now without a sword...

There was no way on God's green earth that he was going to breach his defenses, while the Elite had his blade ready. Kasano knew getting near the Elite was not going to be easy not without a weapon... he realized it was a do or die. Taking his right palm he collected the blood on his chest, concentrating his energy to his hands he brought them together trying to think of a weapon that would be useful.

(Come on... Don't choke Kasano, concentrate... Concentrate... FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GIVE ME A WEAPON I CAN USE!)

Kasano clenched his teeth in anger his pupils dilating in to a reptilian shape the blood began to travel up his arm creating sparks and discharging his energy. A Snake like chained traveled around his left forearm each link on the chain covered in serrated barbed edges. Gauntlets were taking form, on both hands as Kasano began pulling his hands apart a blade handle took form then the red blade started to show, it was no two handed sword, but the sword was slightly longer than Kasano's previous weapon. Between the tip of the blade and the length was a curved inward slope to pull flesh. As Kasano finished the Conjuring of the sword electric discharges began to react to the sword as it was solidifying.

Kasano stood in awe as he finally conjured not just one but three weapons two gauntlets and a sword. The Chains around his forearm slithered down into his left hand while he held his sword in his right hand. He glared at the Elite Warlord getting in to a combat ready stance. "Let's dance."

The two once again engaged in combat using speed and strength to fight in the duel, while the Elite was changing his sword stance Kasano used that time to react by throwing his chain around the Katana and bringing his own sword down on his foe cutting his chest... then... his eyes widened his own blood sword... ignited in fire..

(Wh-What? Fire?! No that doesn't make any sense Blood Weapons from a non-Elder don't ignite... WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE?!)

In mid distraction the Katana wielding Elite Warlord zigzagged to him thrusting his blade downward against Kasano's blade. Kasano immediately got back in to the action striking his target with hand to hand with his new Gauntlets though each blow the Gauntlets landed on the Elite Warlord the fire would form on the surface of the knuckles from the Elite's blood.

Luise quickly got up feeling dazed, the air was unstable and the entire base of the room was shaking... She could here Kasano screaming followed by a white blurred object being hurled across the archive smashing into a Dragon statue. Something inside Kasano snapped as he was shouting in to the air, his eyes morphing from a pure bright red to a bright and glowing white-blue. Kasano found out he was no ordinary Dragon, his frustration building up with anxiety and fear, then Anger boiling over. A white spark by Kasano began to form by him, Luise tried to snap Kasano out of it, but the energy around him was so unstable the moment she tried to touch him she'd get shocked, that white spark pulled the two and took them out of the Archive.

"Hey... you... kid wake up..." A distant familiar voice called out to Kasano... It was so familiar that he had almost long forgot it.

Kasano cracked his eyes open to see what was bothering him, he laid in a grassy plain, with a female standing over him. He leaned his head up to view the woman, his eyes widened a tear almost escaping his left eye.

"Mom?" Kasano said his voice filled with terror and regret.

Reunion a funny thing it is... for a mother he barely knows... Kasano is once again afraid for not knowing the truth of his life and origins. The training has only begun...
