Ashura: I know what you're going through. When I first discovered my blue flames, I was a danger to everything. Everything I touched, disintegrated in an instant. Many of my animal friends died because of me. Don't let your fear control you.
Shun'ei: But I'm not like you.
Ashura: How do you think I can control my Illusionary Hands. It's because I don't doubt my abilities.
Ashura released Shun'ei and got a couple of feet away from Shun'ei.
Shun'ei: I must not doubt my abilities, I got it.
Shun'ei launched his ice hand at Ashura and tried swiping Ashura, he dodged the hand but was punched by the fiery illusionary hand. Shun'ei leaped forward towards Ashura before delivering a high kick to Ashuy's head, but Ashura was still on his feet.
Shun'ei then lifted his arm up before he slammed his elbow down onto Ashura, who was still on his feet.
Shun'ei dashed forward before punching Ashura with his large Illusionary Fire Hand, then he jabbed Ashura with his large Illusionary Ice Hand, followed up by punching Ashura upwards with his large Illusionary Fire Hand. Shun'ei then leaped into the air and slashed Ashura with his large Illusionary Fire Hand. The both of them landed on their feet.
Shun'ei slammed both of his large Illusionary Fire Hand and Ice Hand before firing a ball of chi through the hands, causing the chi to absorb some of the fire and ice energy from each of the hands and when the ball of chi hit Ashura, he suffered both burns and freezes.
Shun'ei then formed an aura of fire and ice around his body before dashing forward towards Ashura and elbowed Ashura in the chest, causing more harm.
Shun'ei tackled Ashura into the air before rapidly punching Ashura with both of his large Illusionary Fire Hand and Ice Hand before firing a ball of fire and ice at Ashura before forming an aura of fire and ice around him before dashing forward and tackling through Ashura, causing him more harm.
Shun'ei hit Ashura into the air before he formed both of his large Illusionary Fire Hand and Ice Hand around his own hands, Shun'ei then dashed toward Ashura and slashed him with his Ice Hand's claws before jumping into the air and punching him with his Fire Hand. Ashura landed to the ground very hard, creating a huge crater. Ashura got on his feet and used his healing powers to heal himself. Shun'ei was in disbelief.
Shun'ei: How am I going to defeat you if you keep using your healing powers and regeneration abilities.
Ashura: You have my respect kid. In the last tournament, I defeated you with ease but you just gave me a run for my money. Good work kid.
Shun'ei: It was thanks to you Ashura, thank you.
Ashura: Time to end this fight.
Ashura multiplied his Fiery Illusionary Hands and made them rain down from the sky on top of Shun'ei, harming him. Then Ashura combined his two Fiery Illusionary Hands into one large fireball before shooting it at the Shun'ei, the large fireball hit Shun'ei and created an explosion that destroyed the area around them. After the smoke died down, Shun'ei was on his knees, struggling to get on his feet.
Ashura then trapped Shun'ei in his pocket dimension before slamming his head with his two Fiery Illusionary Hands and then multiplying his Fiery Illusionary Hands into hundreds which he launches at Shun'ei, beating him repeatedly before shooting a beam of flames at him. Shun'ei got on his shaky feet.
Ashura charged at Shun'ei, Shun'ei tried swiping and punching Ashura with both of his Illusionary Hands but Ashura dodged barrage of attacks and jumped into the air before he formed the fiery illusionary hand around his left hand and punched Shun'ei right in the face, creating an explosion that further destroyed the area around them. When the smoke died down, Shun'ei was unconscious.
Ashura: Teamwork? I don't care about that. I alone am the true winner!
Announcer: The winner of this year's King of fighters, ASHURA!
The crowd cheered for Ashura. The fighters were impressed.
Chizuru: That kid is truly something. He won his third without having a team. He is the true King of Fighters. If he entered the first king of fighters tournament, he could have won. I know he would have won all the tournaments. I should make him my student.
Kyo: We have finished what we came here for. We have stopped the hakkeshu.
Iori: I have a feeling that this is not the end.
Chizuru: I think Ashura can feel it too.
K': I hate these tournaments.
Terry: Me too, everything bad happens when the tournaments are over.
Athena: Maybe I'll team up with Athena in the next tournament.
Kyo: You heard what he said. He doesn't care about team work. I have to go home, I have someone important to call.
Iori: I want to see what's gonna happen.
Then Isla's powers went berserk before a creature that looked like Verse emerged from Isla's spiritual hands. Now unleashed once again in a form similar to that of Isla, Re Verse proceeds to teleport Ashura, Isla Team, and Shun'ei Team to an alternative dimension.
[Ominous Arena]
A twisted version of the Coliseum Arena in a pocket dimension, with negative colors and a darkened sky, in tons of red. Meitenkun, Shun'ei, Benimaru, Dolores, Isla, and Dolores were confused while Ashura was just looking at Re Verse.
Benimaru: Where are we?
Ashura: Were in that creatures pocket dimension. I have to deal with that creature once and for all, you guys just stay there and watch.
Ashura walked towards Reverse and got in his fighting stance.
Re Verse: I... OTOM... EVERYTHING... DESTROY! OTOMA... RAGA... RRRAAGH!
Ashura: So i was right all this time. You are just a minion of Otoma=Raga, you were sent to collect the souls for her right.
Re Verse charged towards Ashura and tried slashing Ashura with it's claws but he blocked the attack and pulled Re Verse towards him and head-butted her before he kicked Re Verse away from him.
Re Verse charged towards Ashura and tried slashing him with a barrage of slashes, but Ashura dodged them with ease and backflipped far away from Re Verse.
Re Verse launched a purple fireball at Ashura, who jumped and kicked the fireball back towards Re Verse, hitting her in the face before Ashura leaped towards Re Verse and kicked her in the face before slashing her armor with his own claws.
Re Verse sent her phantom hands towards Ashura to slash him, but Ashura dodged them until he lost his balance and fell into the ground.
Re Verse jumped on top of Ashura and bit him on the neck, absorbing some of his life force. The others were shocked at what they were seeing and were gonna help Ashura, but stopped when they saw Ashura get on his feet with Re Verse still biting him.
Ashura: Get your disgusting fangs off of me.
Re Verse ripped off Ashura's skin, much to the others shock but it the wound just regenerated itself, Ashura punched Re Verse in the face, sending her crashing all over the arena.
Ashura charged his claws with a powerful purple flame and put them on the ground. Ashura rushed towards Re Verse while dragging his claws on the ground before delivering a massive upward flaming slice, eviscerating Re Verse. The massive flaming slice sliced through the armor and let his purple flames to seep into the creature steadily, dissolving the darkness.
Re Verse exploded and Ashura closed his eyes as the creature exploded before he walked towards the others.
Heidern: Are you alright kid?
Ashura: For your information I'm older than you, so stop calling me a kid.
Dolores: Are you really okay?
Ashura: Yes, but it's not over yet.
Then the arena changed. It now had a gigantic crystals adorning the field as well as a huge, golden colored, crystalline rupture in the fabric of time-space in the middle, with a distorted dimension visible through it.
Then a portal appeared in front of Ashura and out of it emerged Otoma=Raga. The others except for Ashura and Dolores were confused of who she was.
Heidern: Who is that?
Dolores: That's Otoma=Raga, an African goddess. Otoma=Raga is Re Verse's master, with the monster collecting souls for Otoma=Raga to open a barrier to its dimension. Once satisfied, Otoma=Raga would then appears to Earth to destroy all life, only to recreate it in its own image.
Benimaru: How do we send her back to her home?
Dolores: The only way for Otoma=Raga to be sent back to her home is for one of the Amplified Specters to sacrifice themselves.
Isla: I'm not gonna sacrifice myself for an ugly goddess.
Shun'ei: Me too.
Ashura: No one is getting sacrificed today. The only thing happening is sending this goddess of abominations back to the Exile. I should return back to the old Ashura.
A bright light engulfed Ashura and when it died down Ashura had changed. He changed from a boy that looked like he was 18 years to a boy that looked like he was 12 years. He was now leaner but was still muscular, his long blue hair was tied in a ponytail, he wore a black kimono robe and wooden slippers with white socks. His eyes were now demonic and had a cold look. He also had a green glowing sword. Everyone were shocked when they saw Ashura.
Ashura: You guys look after yourselves. I'm gonna deal with Otoma=Raga once and for all.
Ashura rushed towards Otoma=Raga with his sword.
Otoma=Raga summoned a large crystal and tried impaling Ashura with it, but he slashed the crystal and continued rushing towards Otoma=Raga.
Otoma=Raga made a crystal emerge underneath Ashura, but he jumped into the air and slashed the the crystal to pieces before he continued rushing towards Otoma=Raga.
Otoma=Raga disappeared and reappeared behind Ashura before she used her crystals as bladed gauntlet to slash Ashura with it, but he turned around and blocked the slash before looking at Otoma=Raga right in the eye before he kicked Otoma=Raga away from him.
Otoma=Raga tried hitting Ashura with a burst of blue flames but Ashura dodged it and leaped into the air before he tried slashing Otoma=Raga with his sword, but she created a shield out of her crystals and used it to protect herself from the slash.
Otoma=Raga made crystals rain from the sky towards Ashura, who raised his sword into the air before he spun around, cutting all the crystals down, then he rushed at Otoma=Raga again.
Otoma=Raga summoned a large crystal and tried slamming it into Ashura, but he sliced the crystal into pieces before he disappeared and reappeared behind Otoma=Raga and punched her away from him.
Otoma=Raga's crystal changed their colour, from the original blue to red.
Otoma=Raga sent a wave of hands towards Ashura to grasp him, but he slashed the wave of hands with ease and appeared in front of Otoma=Raga in an instant and slashed Otoma=Raga upwards, then jumped after her and slashed her 5 times while rising, the last one dropping her to the ground.
Otoma=Raga got on his feet and used telekinesis to blast Ashura backwards. Ashura was blasted backwards, but he impaled his sword to the ground, stopping himself.
Otoma=Raga made red crystals rain from the sky towards Ashura, who tried blocking the crystals, but they were stronger than before and harmed him.
Otoma=Raga summoned a large red crystal and tried slamming it on top of Ashura, who used more strength to slash the crystal to pieces. Ashura rushed towards Otoma=Raga, intending to land the finishing blow.
Ashura hit Otoma=Raga with a repeating Crescent Moon Slash before he hit her with a strong downward diagonal slash, creating a trail of blue and purple flames in its wake. Otoma=Raga was revealed to be defeated.
Otoma=Raga once again spoke unknowable, alien words. Then Otoma=Raga attempted to kidnap Isla in order to fulfil Dolores' prediction, but was stopped by Ashura and Shun'ei.
Ashura: Shun'ei and Isla, let's seal her back to the void where she came from.
shun'ei/Isla: Right.
Ashura, Shun'ei, and Isla sealed Otoma=Raga back into the void beyond time and space before Ashura teleported himself and the others back towards the Earth.
[Coliseum Arena]
Ashura, Heidern, Dolores, Benimaru, Meitenkun, Isla, and Shun'ei appeared back to the Coliseum Arena. Everyone were shocked when they saw Ashura, he was younger than before. A bright light engulfed him and he reverted back to normal.
Ashura was crowned the New King Of Fighters tournament. After getting crowned Ashura celebrated his victory with with the other fighters.
It was now night, Ashura was walking with Athena to her home. Ashura didn't expect Athena's home to be a huge mansion.
Athena: Here we are. Thanks for getting for getting me home. Where do you live by the way?
Ashura: I live in the forest, it's my home.
Athena was shocked to hear that Ashura had no fixed address.
Ashura: I'll come see you tomorrow.
Ashura turned around and was gonna walk away, but was stopped by Athena.
Athena: No, I won't let the love of my life live in the forest. Come live with me in my mansion.
Ashura: It's fine, I grew up in the forest. So living there doesn't matter to me.
Athena: Please come live with me, it's very lonely in this mansion.
Ashura: What do you mean?
Athena: My parents are dead and I am all alone in this mansion. It's just me and the maids.
Ashura: I'll live with you, okay.
Athena hugged Ashura and after they broke the hug, they got in the mansion and headed straight to Athena's bedroom. Athena wore a light pink tanktop and shorts, while Ashura wore baggy pants.
Athena: Why are you wearing baggy pants, it's very hot.
Ashura took off his baggy pants and something hit the floor. Athena got shocked when he saw the thing that hit the floor, it was Ashura's cock, it was 85 inches long and 8 inches thick and it wasn't even erect.
Ashura: This is the reason why I'm wearing baggy pants.
Athena: How did you hide it all this time?
Ashura: I have been using my magic to shrink it. Look at this.
He then used his magic, shrinking his cock to 15 inches long and 6 inches thick. Ashura put on his baggy pants once again.
Then he and Athena got on the king-size bed and covered themselves with the covers before the two of them cuddled with each other.
