Ryo: Here's chapter 8. Also, thanks for reminding me Evil Riggs! Ricky did sort of forgot about Jack Spicer in Chapter 6 when he said 'Too bad we didn't find any survivors.'. That chapter have still yet to be edited. Thanks for spotting that out, Riggs.

Chapter 8: Rukia Kuchiki

Meanwhile, somewhere at the other side of the world, a Faction battleship was flying through the skies. Inside the battleship, a girl was meditating in her small room in the battleship. The girl has short black hair with a single strand of hair dangling in front of face, purple eyes and wears black robes and sandals. Her name was Rukia Kuchiki.

After meditating for a moment, she opens his eyes and stood up from the ground. "I've sense him." She then walks out of her room.

Rukia walks through the hallways of the battleship. The Faction officers stop, stand straight and salute her as they passed by her. After a few minutes of walking, Rukia arrived at the bridge of the battleship which was a huge and empty room.

At the front of the room, a man was sitting at his huge chair as he looks out to the skies through a huge window. It was none other than The Brute who is wearing his grey mask, brown jacket, white shirt and grey pants. Rukia then kneel down behind her master's seat.

"Master, I finally managed to sense the Templar's presence. It was really difficult to sense him. But then suddenly, he unleashes this beautiful feeling." Rukia said to her master.

"Good. Marvelous." The Brute said to his servant, still looking through his window and not facing her.

"Yes, I know. It was really difficult to make out with him. At first, it was all so quiet…I did not felt it. But now I wonder if it has always been there." Rukia said as she starts to smile a bit. "That feeling was really beautiful. It was as if, I could feel the background life of Earth." The Brute then got out from his chair, walks over and stands in front of Rukia.

"Master, do you feel it-" But before Rukia could finish what she has to say, her eyes snapped open as The Brute grabbed her throat and lifts her from the ground.

"You will not say anything beautiful or as if you feel that life is free. Ever! Do you understand?!" The Brute snapped.

"Yes…" Rukia managed to say out as she gets choked. "You…are the…only one I felt…the only one I sense…and the only…one I serve…my life…is yours…"

The Brute nodded and released his grip and let Rukia tumble onto the floor, gasping for breath. "Where is he heading?" He asked.

"Towards…London." Rukia gasped.

"Right. You will track him down and make sure you kill him. We do not want any disturbances in our progress in helping the world."

"Yes…master." Rukia then stood up, bowed down and turned around to make her leave.

But after walking for a while, The Brute spoke up, making her stop at her tracks. "Rukia?" The Brute asked.

"Yes, master?" Rukia asked sadly.

"Remember, all life on Earth, including yours, will not be free. All life will be under my power. And you will serve me loyalty, always. Do you understand?"

"Yes master. I'll keep that in mind." Rukia nodded.

"Now…you may leave." The Brute said as he turned around and looked through his window again. Rukia then head towards the room doors and leave, letting her master stay in his room in peace.
