Chapter 6
The trio of Luigi, Aihara and Nico charged towards Silva Arita who had killed and stolen the Reflector Ability from Janna, Haruko's younger sister. The male just smirked and would then proceed to dodge all their attacks. Knowing full well their inducer abilities won't work, Nico tries anyways. He forms an ice spear, aims it at the director and throws it.
The icicle spear collides with the unseen force surrounding Arita and shatters into a million pieces.
"You know what Katsumi over there said right? Your abilities won't be of good use here!"
Arita's ability activates, 'Velocity Break'. Velocity Break allows the user to run at extreme speeds and lets them stop on a dime, making it easy for them to do sharp turns in a battle. With his extreme speed, he went towards Nico and quickly aimed a punch at Nico's side.
"ERK!"
Nico responded in pain before being sent towards a wall. Aihara turned at him in fear.
"Nico!"
The boy got up quickly after the hit.
"Damn. Both Velocity Break and Reflector?"
"That's-a deadly combo! Are you sure we can pull this off-a?"
Luigi questions. Haruko, even with his pain, stood up after he reloaded his weapon.
"Gh... Hey... What if... What if we can freeze the whole floor?" This sparks an idea within Nico's mind.
"That's right... Arita has a Speed ability... Sure he can stop on a dime, but if the floor becomes ice... His speed and instant stops won't be able to function properly...!"
Nico looks at Arita before placing both his hands on the floor which causes the whole area to freeze over.
"Damn! You-"
"Sucks to be you, Mr. Director!"
Aihara interrupts Silva while smirking. Luigi then taps her shoulder and whispers to her.
"Hey... Aihara? What if you combine your abilities with Nico's?"
"H-Huh? Why?"
"Well-a... I think I may have an idea... This may be far fetched, but still! Just do it!"
"U-Uh okay! Nico! Let's combine our abilities!"
She starts forming medium winds in the room. Nico, not knowing what they had in mind, sends ice particles into the winds. The winds then scatter across the room which makes the crew, except Nico, shiver due to the cold.
"N-N-Nico? You're so lucky you don't f-f-feel the cold!"
Aihara says while she wraps her arms around herself in order to stay warm. Nico gets closer to the crew and pulls Aihara in causing her to blush before shaking her head.
"Th-Thanks... N-Nico..."
Luigi didn't seemed fazed by the cold as he experienced it many times. Haruko though... Wasn't lucky.
"Damn... Not even this lab coat is good for the cold..."
Silva proceeded to laugh.
"Hahahaha! What do you kids have up your sleeves?- gh...!"
The cold winds hit him as he tries to stay tough like a villain would. Just then Luigi then skated towards Silva and aimed a punch engulfed with electricity at him. Success! Silva gets knocked back, cleaning the blood from his mouth.
"What in the-?!"
Luigi then stood straight.
"It's called-a cancellation of abilities-a. You see, in order to use the Reflector ability, you need to concentrate. That's why my attack succeeded in hitting-a you. You were a bit worried about the cold and shifted your focus on trying to stay warm instead of your ability."
"Y-You-!"
"Plus, combine not being able to focus and not being able to speed up because of-a the frozen floor, that makes it really impossible for-a you."
"You inducers are something! Something disgusting!"
Silva shouts as he got up and ran toward Luigi. The plumber in green curled his hand into a fist once more and charge it with electricity.
"Fun fact-a for you, Silva! I'm not an inducer-a. Thunderhand, my ability? Well I earned it! That doesn't make me an inducer, and it was also useful in trying to stop a certain purple witch! To me, you're not even much of a challenge as she was-a to me!"
Luigi aimed his fist at Silva. He spurt out a bit of blood. The punch also shocked him which caused him to fall backwards onto the icy floor. Aihara, Nico and Haruko watched the defeat of Silva Arita and then stepped closer carefully towards Luigi and Silva.
"You were about to murder many people. You really thought we weren't going to do anything about it?"
Aihara says, with Nico then following up.
"You know, for an early villain you really kinda suck..."
"Gh..."
Haruko slowly stepped in front of his old boss.
"Get out you three... I have some unfinished business..."
Luigi tapped the shoulders of both the pony-tail haired girl and the boy next to her. The duo nodded afterwards and followed the green plumber out. Haruko watched them leave before he turned back to the opponent on the ground.
"Been awhile... Hasn't it... Haruko?"
"Shut your trap."
"That your new way of greeting your bo-"
Katsumi stomped on Silva's stomach in the same area Luigi hit which caused him to groan in pain loudly.
"AGGH! NGH!"
"I won't forgive you. Right from the beginning, I knew you were a piece of trash."
He responded while pointing the weapon at his former boss. He put his hand on the trigger.
"No! Wait, I-"
"Don't give me that "I'm sorry! I really am" crap, Silva. That won't work. You killed my sister, and I will make sure you go to the Underwhere. The exact same place you came from!"
"AAAAHHHH!"
Silva screams. The trio who were walking back to the main area, hear the scream and then a gunshot. Yuuko stepped forward in fear. The ENTA group took down every member, but also lost some of their own.
Footsteps were heard as the figure that showed up in front of them all was non other than Haruko Katsumi. Blood on his lab coat and no weapon. Yuuko sighed in relief and ran up to hug him. They both held their hug for awhile. It was silent after that until…
"Silva Arita. The horrid man... Has been shot dead... By me. The project is done and over with. It's over."
ENTA members rejoiced as some hugged or handshaked others. Haruko remembered the fourth generator, but then shook his head and thought Silva just said it in order to gain some kind of advantage. Just to make sure however, he sends men to track down and obliterate the leftover machines. Some ENTA members would stay at the main machine until the others destroyed the fourth and final generator. Once it was found, the machine was constantly shot in order to malfunction it.
They all left the building afterwards. The trio sighed in relief.
"Maaaan, what a day..."
"All in one day..."
Said Nico after Aihara. Luigi then walked over to Haruko who was looking Into the distance.
"Hey... It's alright-a... She's probably watching from the Overthere."
"That sounds so cliché."
"That's what I'm-a here for haha! What do you plan on doing now, Haruko?"
"... I'm stepping down as the main leader of ENTA. They'll be fine without one... Plus... I'm taking Yuuko somewhere special. I owe her one."
He says as they both turn around and look at Yuuko, Aihara and Nico talking to each other. He smiles before continuing.
"It'll be a new day tomorrow, Luigi. Hope you're ready."
"Luigi's always ready-a!"
He responds while rubbing the bottom of his nose with his index finger.
The brown haired male would make his way to Issei and the others. The green plumber would also then look into the distance, remembering about what happened awhile back when he went and destroyed the third generator. The Revalagers, a group intending to do harm and kill any Inducer that don't follow their criteria. From where he's standing, he widens his eyes when he notices a small group of people who then stared at him. All having their own unique weapons. Luigi gulps as Aihara nudged at him.
"Something wrong, Luigi?"
"Uh..."
He turns to where he saw the group. Nothing. He scratches the back of his head before also shaking it.
"Nah. I'm fine. Just proud-a that we took down that project-a."
Aihara nodded and smiled before crossing her arms.
"Yeah. That makes me proud too."
"So... Are you and-a Nico going somewhere? A date may-"
His voice is muffled by the girl's hand. Her face red as a tomato, with Luigi patting her hand as a sign of giving up until she finally took her hand in front of Luigi's mouth off.
"..."
"I... See... Well, anyways-a. There's something I need-a to do."
"Hm? What is it?"
"Something important-a! Duh!..."
Luigi states before bringing Aihara into the forest.
"We need to talk-a... I'm going to do some research on the group that-a calls themselves the "Revalagers". From the looks of things-a, they're not good people. I encountered a member when I want to take down the third-a generator. Aihara, I want you and Nico to keep on the look out-a. They're wanting to assassinate any Inducer that doesn't meet their criteria. Watch yourselves-a okay?"
It was too much to take in. For Aihara, that'd mean she has to do more work, but she agreed to Luigi's proposal.
"We will. I'll make sure of it. Thanks for the heads up. I guess we have to work together for while longer. N-Not that that's a bad thing!"
She says in response as she shakes her hands signifying 'No'.
"Again! You can count on me!"
She says afterwards while punching her chest with one arm. Yep, back to her energetic self. Aihara waves goodbye to the plumber as they both head their separate ways. Luigi still concerned about what happened back there.
"For once, Bro... While you go do whatever-a you're doing, I'll be here on my own adventures-a. Good luck-a to the both of us, Mario."
He says to himself and to the brother that isn't there. Back to where Nico and Aihara are, they walk and walk to their respective homes as he looks at his phone.
"Wonder what Mom's been doing..."
"Lydia? Probably doing her best somewhere too just like we did! Don't worry! She'll be fine, Nick!"
Aihara says and pats his back with a smile.
"N-Nick?!"
"Yeah! Nice nickname right?"
Nico sighed before responding.
"I'd… Rather stay as Nico thank you… as for her well being… I guess... But I'm still kind of worried... She seems like a tough one though so..."
It was an awkward silence after that. Aihara wanted to thank him once more for making her feel warm back at the battle with Silva, but she didn't have the courage to just yet. She feels guilty about it as well.
"Well, my new home is now this way. See 'ya, Aihara!"
"Huh? O-Oh... Yeah..."
At the edge of a cliff stood 6 figures, all looking down at the city.
"I wonder how the boss will feel about this!"
"Probably real good! We'll be able to kill as many Inducers as we want!"
Two of them said. A female then spoke after they were done speaking.
"Like always... Just stay in silent."
"Oh! Who's our next target, Kaisura?"
The female, only known as Kasura took out a picture of their targets.
"Our first targets? Aihara Kendo - Inducer Rank 4... And Luigi. Our first non-inducer target."
"Ho boy this is going to be fun ain't it?!"
"Let's go team."
The male next to Kasura states as they all vanish into thin air with the help of one of their allies' ability.
Next Chapter, the continuation of the adventures of Mario, Debrie and Lydia. As for Luigi and the crew? Well, Let's just say Events will Unfold in the future.
