Chapter Eleven

Back with Akuma, he stood in Parc Jacques-Cartier with Chelsea still chained and guarded by demon llamas and winged Dreadful. He waited for the trio to come, but they arrived with the sword wrapped in a blanket.

"We've got it." said Patrick. "As promised."

Gently taking the sword from Patrick, Akuma said "A deal is a deal. She's out of my hair."

After being immediately unchained, Chelsea ran to Patrick and hugged him with tears.

She said "Patrick, I'm sorry."

"I suppose I should be thankful Patrick-san." said Akuma. "You've managed to recover the Ryu Sword, and now you all have an eternity to live under my rule."

"This is crazy." protested Rook. "You're conquering innocent people because of your jealousy."

"Jealousy? For some street performer, like Tenchi, stealing my theme? My rule is to show the world my superiority… by unleashing Shakku from the darkest pits of Hell."

Akuma pulled out a red rock from under his armour and threw it into the water for some reason. He unwrapped the sword to wield it, but it was only a toy sword. He was shocked when he found that out.

Patrick smirked "By the way. As a newbie of the 21st century, let me be the first to say what they don't say in your time. PSYCHE!" Then he pulled out the real Ryu Sword from inside his shirt.

Growling in anger, Akuma broke the fake sword in half. He ordered "Get the sword!

When an army of Dreadful rose up to kill those Canadians, a glorious battle took place. With Chelsea taking cover, Patrick fought with the Ryu Sword, Rook used Febreze sprays on the attacking demon llamas, and Buzz was hitting Dreadful with fruits and vegetables.

"Brutality!" Patrick kicking a Dreadful's face.

"Animality!" Rook ripping a Dreadful's heart off.

"Bestiality!" Buzz kicking a Dreadful in its crotch.

Just then, the hooded figure, Kinomoto, showed up and armed with a katana for battle.

Kinomoto asked "Akuma, I presume?"

"The one and only." he replied. "You will not enjoy this moment once I liberate Shakku from the Underworld."

"I don't plan to." Kinomoto began to sword fight Akuma.

With his fruits and veggies bruised, Buzz was now defenceless against the Dreadful. But he pulled out a Sailor Moon DVD and said "Hey guys. Who likes to watch Sailor Moon?" The Dreadful in front of him screamed like little girls with fear and they just poof away. Buzz laughed hysterically and said "Sometimes it pays to love anime."

Kinomoto was on the brink of being defeated. Akuma pointed his seven-branched sword and said "Surrender, mortal."

"Back off!" shouted Patrick charging to stab Akuma with the Ryu Sword. Just one stab and the Oni Daimyo disappeared. When that happened, all the demon llamas and Dreadful poofed away as well.

Regaining his bearings, Kinomoto dropped his sword and said "Thank you, Patrick-san."

"Look," said Patrick, "I once thought you were crazy. But I-"

Suddenly, an earthquake began. It was not like any earthquake they've ever seen. The vibration by the latter was so immense, some of the buildings collapsed down. Patrick looked around in shock.

He asked "What's that, an earthquake?"

"No." said Kinomoto sensing something was coming. "Shakku."

In the Ottawa river, just next to Parc Ecologique du Lac-Leamy, the red rock quaked the ground and it opened a portal. Coming out was the mighty beast, Shakku, having the appearance of a shark with limbs. He had a long and broad sharp-ended nose, four digit hand-wings that bear a striking resemblance to a Pterosaur's wing which he can use to fly, and three triple-crowned tails that can be used for long distance attacks or piercing. He roared as he was liberated from the Underworld. The gang can see him coming closer.

"HOLY SHIT!" shouted Rook in a shocked tone. "THAT'S SHAKKU?!"

"That is a big-ass sushi!" said Buzz.

Patrick puzzled "What do we do now? He's too big even for all of us to handle."

"There is a way." said Kinomoto. "The sword has the ability… to project anything its wielder thinks." Whatever he said gave the trio interested expressions.

"Whaddya say, guys?" Patrick asked his friends.

They nodded "Yeah."

They all ran to Marina de Hull before the Ryu Sword shined as they all held it together. Just then, the sword transformed into Gipsy Danger, the American Jaeger from Pacific Rim. Shakku bared witness as the giant robot guarded the Alexandra bridge.

Inside the conn-pod (Gipsy Danger's head), Rook and Buzz were controlling the Jaeger's lower basic movements in the front and Patrick, behind his buds, was controlling the upper movements. After accommodating a triple neural handshake, Gipsy Danger was ready for battle.

"Alright!" Patrick said. "Here's our mission: We must kill him before he crosses the bridge!"

"Start thrusters!" Rook said.

"Let's gut some fish!" Buzz said being excited.

"This is gonna be AWESOME!" shouted Patrick as Gipsy Danger and Shakku charge to each other and fight.

And so, a great battle took place as Kinomoto and Chelsea watched it. Gipsy gave Shakku a few punches and a blast from its I-19 Plasmacaster that severed Shakku's sharp-ended nose. Shakku roared fiercely before trying to bite Gipsy's head off. But the Jaeger pushed him away, then the giant beast used his tails to attack.

Patrick deployed a loose chain that locked into a solid sword called GD6 chain sword and sliced the tails one by one. With only his jaws, Shakku tried to bite again, but Gipsy deployed another chain sword and used both of them to slice the monster's jaw off.

But the colossal demon was not easily defeated. He leaped onto Gipsy Danger, wrapping his talons around its chest. Unfurling his wings, he took flight with the Jaeger in tow and climbed thirty thousand feet above the city.

Noticing how high they're going, Patrick shouted in a panic "Oh, fuck! This is the part where he drops us!"

"Not today!" Buzz protested before pushing two buttons.

One button ejected the conn-pod and the other triggered the nuclear vortex turbine. Gipsy Danger self-destructed and Shakku along with it.

The gang braced themselves for impact. But suddenly, conn-pod spread wings from underneath the latter and it was gliding across the sky. No longer feeling the fear of falling, the gang looked through the windshield of the conn-pod to find out they're safe and sound, gliding through the air.

"Hey Buzz!" Rook said in excitement. "We're flying!"

Buzz corrected "This isn't flying. This is falling, with style."

Patrick laughed and said "Hey guys, let's do the Buzz Lightyear phrase."

The trio cried in unison "To infinity, and beyond!"

The conn-pod safely landed back on the park before the gang would step out. Just then, when the conn-pod turned back into the Ryu Sword, everybody woke up from their comas and Buzz's fingers were healed like magic. The trio couldn't believe that all happened.

"Awesome." said Patrick as he picked up the sword. "We actually did it all together. But no one gets to see this."

"Magic must be a secret from unnecessary eyes." said Kinomoto as he approached the trio. Patrick handed him the sword. "How remarkable do you think I am? It was this quest that helped you change your lives."

Rook replied "I guess it did. But we didn't get to do something in return."

"I believe you have, Rook-san. You all returned the Ryu Sword to me."

Buzz asked "What do ya mean 'returned'?"

Kinomoto took off his hood, revealing his face and said "I am Tenchi's reincarnated form. I was given a second chance of life. And let me tell you something. My people believed only great power can withstand evil. But I didn't think so. I believed anyone, either the weak-minded or the strong-willed, can do so. And you know what? I was right. That's why I mailed you those coupons."
