Chapter Two: I've Missed You
"Terumi!" Ragna charged at the man who ruined his life. Drawing his sword and attempting to cleave him in two. Terumi's Nox Nyctores Ouroboros easily deflected his strike and attempted to impale him. Ragna swiftly dodged and resumed his stance, "Where is Saya you bastard!?"
"Hmmm, looks like you've gotten a lot stronger since we last met Rags." Terumi took off his hat and bowed, "I must say. I have to applaud your efforts. But will they be enough?" Terumi slowly began to laugh insanely, turning into his real form, "Come on you piece of shit! Show me what you've got!"
"Die you bastard!" Ragna has had enough of the suffering that Terumi has caused. Creating the Black Beast, the Azure Grimoire, kidnapping Saya. He was to die here and now.
"Like you got a chance boy! You lost your little idea engine when you saved that stupid girl!"
"Surprise moron, Kokonoe made me another." Ragna held his Grimoire up, "Restriction 666 released. Dimensional interference force field deployed! Idea engine, engage!"
"Shit!"
Terumi attempted to interrupt Ragna activating the Blazblue, but was too late. Ragna was one equal ground with Terumi now, and he was fueled with his hatred for taking Saya, and what he did to Jin. He parried Ouroboros, and charged at Terumi, striking down. Terumi jumped back to avoid the strike, sending Ouroboros to attack again. The second strike was deflected as Ranga stuck the floor, sending out a shockwave of seithr which knocked the blow back.
"Give her back!" Ragna yelled, jumping up and kicking Terumi down onto the floor, drawing his sword for another strike, "Give Saya back!"
Terumi rolled backwards, but wasn't far enough to dodge Ragna's follow up attack. With all his strength, Ragna threw Blood-scythe at his foe, impaling him. Terumi yelled in pain, and Ragna's right arm became covered in seithr, transforming into a massive claw. Ragna grabbed Terumi's head, and his arm crushed his skull, dropping his lifeless body to the floor.
"It's over...it's finally over." Ragna groaned, retrieving his blade.
"Not quite Rags!" Terumi's body began to glow bright green, and a malevolent spirit emerged from the remains, "I defeated Takamagahara! So I'm in control!"
"Not anymore Terumi." Ragna turned to see Rachel and Hakumen standing behind them, "Our good friend Kokonoe, with my aid of course, has broken the program you used to seal Takamagahara. You're no long in any form of control."
"What?! That dame fucking cat! I'll kill her!"
"You aren't going to kill anyone Terumi!" Ragna charged at him, intent to deal the final blow.
Suddenly, all of them were frozen in place. Saya appeared before them, silent. They struggled, but to no avail, as the magic holding them was to powerful. Ragna stared at Saya, who was slowly walking towards him.
"Saya, why?" Ragna stared into her eyes, as she finally stood directly in front of him. She simply stood there, looking back at him, her red eyes portraying no emotion. Ragna refused to fail here, not when he was so close to getting her back. To everyone's amazment, Ragna somehow managed to force his arm free, gripping Saya's shoulder, and pulled her in close.
"Saya, come back to me." Ragna whispered softly in her ear. Although he was not able to see it, Saya's eyes began to water, her eyes wide with what seemed to be hope. Rachel sighed, Ragna was breaking the spell. Ragna whispered into her ear again, his last chance of saving her, "I love you Saya, come back. Please."
The magic holding them in place dissipated. Ragna and Saya embraced each other. Terumi shifted in disgust, and had forgotten about Hakumen and Rachel. Hakumen dashed towards him, and drew his sword. With a special enchantment that Trinity placed on his blade, Hakumen's sword treated Terumi's ghost as a physical being, and knocked him backwards, sending him into the cauldron. As Terumi hit the center of the Cauldron, he simply dissolved, being transformed into what the cauldron was creating, destroying him. Rachel, without saying a word, teleported Hakumen away, as to not intrude upon Ragna's reunion with Saya.
"Ragna," Rachel called for him, "Allow me to take us out of here, to a place where you can be together in privacy."
"Where's that?" Saya asked, turning to look at the girl in front of her.
"I will take you to my castle, where my butler Valkenhayn will escort you to your room. You may stay as long as you deem fit, and must simply speak to me when you wish to go on your way."
Ragna looked at Saya, "Do you want to?"
"Yes," Saya said, nodding, "I just want to be with you Ragna."
"Alright Rachel, but I don't want us to be disturbed under any circumstances. Okay?"
"Very well Ragna, let us depart." And with that, the three were enveloped in darkness, and transported to Rachel's home.
