A/N: Hello everyone! I am very very very late today... I'm sorry... So I won't write too much about what I have to say!

Enjoy!


Kaoru Nagumo was doing this for two purposes. One, he still hadn't given up on taking Chizuru. Two, he wanted revenge on the copper haired girl. Aye was in no mood to fight right now. All she wanted to do was lie down on her futon and make up for all the tiring days she spent around Kazama. But she couldn't afford to be lazy right now.

Aye's now unsheathed sword was pointed at the boy, as he huffed.

"Just who I was looking for," he said, as he also unsheathed his katana. Not even a second later, the two swords clashed. Nagumo snarled as he was backing off due to the difference in strength. He jumped, and landed about a few steps away from Aye, and charged at her. But as Aye brought her sword down, she expected it to meet flesh, but instead hit another sword.

With a huff, Aye glared to see what had happened. It was definitely not Kaoru Nagumo who had blocked the attack.

"Kazama?" Aye questioned, but only got a smirk in response. Clicking his tongue, the short boy's brown hair started turning white. He turned towards Kazama, and they started backing each other up, trying to find an opening to kill.

Had they forgot about Aye?

"I am your opponent!" She bellowed to Nagumo.

"I have business with him," Kazama said, his scarlet eyes glinting under the pale moonlight.

"Well I do too," replied Aye, her eyes filled with hatred.

Kazama and Nagumo continued fighting, until Aye caught Nagumo look at her. Soon enough, he jumped away from Kazama, and slammed his sword down. Barely being on time, Aye slipped right past the sharp blade.


The fight continued on, and there was no progress whatsoever. It felt like it had been hours of dragging this on and on, and Aye was slowly starting to get tired. Although she tried not to shift into her Rasetsu form so often, she realized she had no choice right now.

Feeling her body get lighter, she thrust her sword towards Nagumo. But with him being in his other form as well, he dodged her attack with ease. Every time she attacked, he dodged. That routine was repeated so many times, that Aye was starting to pant.

'I can't give up now…'

Sweat trickled down Aye's body. She felt sticky, and the cold air around her was starting to make her cold.

Suddenly, a shock went down her spine, and she felt like something had hit her on the head. Using this as an opening, Nagumo went for Aye's chest, only for her to get herself back in the battle.

Katanas clashing, sweat dropping, everything was a mess.

"Aye-san!" Someone yelled, and she heard the person running towards her. But there was no time for her to look back, as the short boy slashed at her neck, leaving a small cut.

Kaoru Nagumo raised his sword with a smirk, and brought it down. Aye was too late to block the attack, but she desperately tried to dodge it. But the blow was stopped by a black figure.

"Yamazaki-san?"

Only the boy's lips curled up as he concentrated on holding the other's sword. His arms shook violently, and his arm was about to give up. Aye slammed her katana onto Nagumo's and it sent it flying.

With no hesitation, Aye stabbed the boy.


That is it! So do you guys think Kaoru Nagumo will die here, or do you think something else will happen in the next chapter? Well, you'll have to wait!

Nowadays, I don't know why, but my body hasn't been in the best condition. I've been so tired all the time. Seriously, I look like a panda every time I look in the mirror. Probably because I failed my test... But thankfully, I convinced my mom NOT to take my laptop... And I succeded! WOOHOO!

See you next week!
