SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 10 out, this is Chapter 11 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review other than just simply putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?

Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot and pairing.

Chapter 11: The Decider on Kongou Shinzan


"Yukio," Shura jumped in. "I'm offering my apologies in advance."

"It's makes no difference even if you apologize now." Yukio fired back. "I've long discarded any and all expectations I had of you."

"Yukio..." Shura whined. "I don't really care." she shrugged. "But at the very least be true to yourself."

"What did you..." Yukio frowned when a member of the Suguro clan called Shura away. "What do you think?" he turned to the Arc Knight with him.

"With her, who knows?" Ami shrugged. "It's best not to think too much."


"Abyss Flare!" the fiery bird's flame wave burnt through the miasma, allowing Yukio to inject the anti-venom into an infected Shima Exorcist.

What is this? The Dragoon Meister mused as he tossed a couple of vials of holy water onto the solidified miasma. It's strange. It's as if the noises around me are reverberating from far, far away. As if this isn't even real.

"Mind on the opponent, Sniper Boy." Ami warned, firing off an energy wave from her Celestial Sword and vanquishing a blob of miasma that was about to latch onto Yukio.

"Sorry." Yukio muttered, shooting the bottles of holy water and melting the miasma.

"Just like old times, huh?" Ami grinned.

"Indeed." Yukio returned her grin and the two former teammates resumed their battle. A red light... his attention was drawn to a nearby thicket. Just where could that be coming from? Todo Saburota? he frowned, hiding in the bushes and seeing the smoking man in the clearing. No, he looks even younger... what's with those flames? What should I do? Call for backup or...

"Why, hello there." Todo voiced, cutting off Yukio's thoughts. "You're there, aren't you? Right over there. It's no use hiding." he turned to Yukio's general direction. "Now, come on out, Okumura Yukio."


SailorStar9: Now that's done, read and review.
