"Tsukune Aono… You're mine!"
Demona flew at Tsukune at full speed. Before she got to him he jumped high into the air, suddenly she was behind him and knocked him into the ground. Tsukune landed outside the ring and Demona stood atop him looking very pleased with herself.
"Victory is mine!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's a ring out! Demona is the winner!"
Suddenly Tsukune sent out a pulse of energy that knocked her off of him. He got up, charged at her and started delivering blows.
"Oh my gosh! The super ghoul doesn't care that the game is over! He's still fighting!"
"You've lost Tsukune, you're mine now!"
"This is not a game!"
Tsukune generated several fireballs and threw them at Demona, who created a wall of ice to shield herself.
"Tsukune Aono, we were destined to be together. I was made for you, why do you fight me?"
"I don't believe in destiny, I believe in choice. Love is a gift that can only be freely given and received… And I choose not to love you."
"Then I will make you."
"You just don't get it…Then I guess the only way to prove to you that I will never love you… is to kill you."
"Go ahead and try!"
Tsukune ripped a whole tree out of the ground and threw it at Demona, but she just dissolved into mist and it went right through her. She the reformed and charged at Tsukune and pounded him into the ground. He tried to free himself by kicking her in the chin, but that didn't seem to faze Demona in the slightest. She kicked him into the air, jumped into the air herself, and then kicked him to the ground.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we may have to call these extra innings, on account of hail…"
Demona starting conjuring giant balls of ice and threw them at Tsukune.
"Tsukune's in trouble! We've got to help him!"
"Not yet, Kurumu." said Moka.
"What? What the hell are we waiting for exactly?"
"Tsukune needs to prove to Demona that no matter what she tries he will never love her. And he needs to prove that without our assistance."
"But he's getting creamed out there!"
"Is he? I suggest you look closer."
It wasn't long until Demona stopped hurling ice balls at Tsukune, she didn't want him permanently damaged after all.
"Are you ready to give up yet Tsukune?"
Tsukune started laughing, as he got up the others saw that his injuries were quickly healing on their own.
"Are you kidding?"
"No… No… NO! You will be mine Tsukune Aono! YOU WILL BE MINE!"
Demona vanished into thin air, then she reappeared behind Tsukune and caught him as if it were in a bear hug.
"Now that I have you, I will never let you go!"
"We'll see about that."
Tsukune started to elbow Demona in the chest. He just pounded away at her ribs until she was forced to let go of him. Demona coughed up some blood, then Tsukune quickly got behind her, grabbed her by the tail, started swinging her around and around to gain momentum, then threw her in a random direction. But Demona was back on her feet and charging at him in a matter of moments.
"She just won't go down." thought Tsukune.
"There is only one option left…" said the voice of Udar "Use the Ulikai'e'emakeloa."
"The what?"
"It's only the most powerful attack in your arsenal boy."
"Okay… How do I use it?"
"First delay Demona, you'll need time to charge the attack."
"Okay…"
Tsukune conjured a huge ball of fire, and threw it at Demona's face.
"AAAAGHHHHH! MY EYES!"
"Now cup your hands together and begin concentrating your energy into that single point… When you're finished, just say the magic word and fire."
"What is the magic word?"
"What do you think?"
"Please?"
"Ugh… Just say Ulikai'e'emakeloa!"
"Okay! I got it!"
Tsukune cupped his hands together and began concentrating hid energy.
"Remember, you've got to mean it… She hurt your friends… she almost killed Moka… the single most important thing in you entire universe. She'll never stop trying to make you her own as long as she lives… she should never have been born.
Energy started crackling around Tsukune's body. A violent wind suddenly whipped across the area, and lightening split the sky.
"Uli… kai'e'…"
Moka's father, who had been watching in the shadows finally made his presence known.
"EVERYONE! RUN! GET MOVING! HE'S RELEASING THE BLUE WAVE OF DEATH!"
"Blue wave of death? What does he mean?" asked Kurumu.
"He means… RUN LIKE YOU'VE NEVER RUN BEFORE!" said Moka.
"Emake…"
Tsukune now has a sphere of energy in his hands that was giving off beams of light in every direction. Demona had finally recovered.
"What the… What the hell is he doing!"
"LOA!"
A explosive stream of blue energy shot out of Tsukune's hands and rocketed toward Demona, who raised her hands in a desperate attempt to defend herself.
"I CAN'T STOP IT! IT'S TOO POWERFULL! WHY TSUKUNE! WHY HAVE YOU DONE THIS TO YOUR OWN MATE!"
"EVEN IN DEATH YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND! NO ONE CAN EVER BE FORCED TO LOVE! I ALONE WILL DECIDE WHO I WILL LOVE. BUT IT WON'T BE YOU!"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!"
There was huge explosion of blinding blue light. The earth shook violently, then just like every explosion it was gone in an instant, and all was quiet. Tsukune stood there gasping for breath. He looked at the place where moments ago Demona had stood, there was no violet mist, there was only black smoke.
"Sayonara…" he laughed as he collapsed.
