Chapter 19

"So is this the place we need?" Murasaki asked her new comrade from 'Red Division' who was standing next to her.

"According to the information that Hush received from the cyborgs' remains it must be this place." the man said watching at the medium buildings that was surrounded, by metal fence. They were on a pretty far distance from that building, in order to not to be detected.

"How do you think what this place could be?" Kangaroo whispered.

"I don't know." Paul said, "But it seems that it was some sort of a factory or something like this."

"What should we do then?" Murasaki asked the man, "How are supposed to get there undetected?"

"Yeah, to get there will be a real difficult task if we try to sneak there through front door." Paul said watching at the fence. There were two medium buildings behind the fence, and there also was light. "One, two, three." Paul counted, "Ten persons, on the one roof and five on another one."

"Are they cyborgs or not?" Kangaroo asked the man.

"Difficult to say." Mechanic said, "It's not clear from here, but I think that some of them are people."

"Naomi could recruit some Taimanins when she betrayed us, and as I understand she could capture some of us too."

"So there's no questions how they could have so many hunters, however it is interesting that they always send cyborgs instead of skillful hunters." Mechanic said.

"Demon hunters are the valuable resource that can't be expanding thoughtless. Naomi is master in thinking and creating strategies, so it will be stupid to go there straight." Murasaki warned her teammates.

"It's a valuable information." the man said, "Kangaroo you know what to do." the boy nodded and squatted and put his hands onto the ground.

"Yeah, I feel something. There's a net of tunnels between us." the boy said, "But the tunnel is in a good distance from us."

"Where?" Murasaki asked him.

"There." the boy pointed to the tree that was near with the fence.

"It will be pretty difficult to get there." Mechanic said.

"I can take their attention." Murasaki offered an idea to be bait.

"It would be a bad idea." the man shook with his head, "Your suit is white, and it will be pretty difficult for you to hide from them."

"Then I can do it." the boy said, "I'm smaller than you and I have a black suit. I'll beckon them and while they will be going to me I'll join you."

"Are you sure you can do it?" the man asked him, "It's not a training you'll have only one chance."

"Don't worry, if commander allowed me to join you then I definitely can do it." the boy grinned. Kangaroo turned away and ran to the opposite direction of the buildings.

"I wanted to ask you something." Murasaki said as the boy started to leave them, "How did you know my brother?"

"Well, it's a really interesting story." the man said Murasaki could see a smile on his face it seems that he really was Kuro's friend, "We met during my mission in Japan, I was working for some organization that wanted to destroy a demon's nest in Tokyo Kingdom I was working with some men, we miscalculated our powers and accepted the mission, it was good that your brother received that mission too, because if not him we would all die that day." Suddenly they felt how the ground started to tremble, "Prepare yourself." Murasaki nodded, she remembered that the boy could control the ground, so it wasn't needed to explain everything. The silhouettes that were on the roofs started to move they headed to the direction where the boy was, "Now." Mechanic said and they ran to the tree. Everything went off without a hitch, they could reach the tree without any trouble, Mechanic looked at the buildings, and he saw that there was no one. He wanted to negotiate the fence, but knew that it could be a bad idea, so he decided to wait for his comrade. 'Come on. Where the hell are you?' Mechanic started to worry; he thought that the kid was captured. Murasaki even put her hand onto the hilt of her axe preparing herself for worse, when they suddenly saw some black spot that ran from the place they were before. When the boy was near with them he hit the ground with his fist and the ground that was beneath them cracked and then collapsed. They fell down into some tunnel that was lit poorly with some lamps. The boy put his hand onto the ground wall and the hole that was above them was restored and the ground closed the hole again.

"So that what you meant that this boy is a true master of diversions." Murasaki said removing dust and mud form her uniform.

"Just work with us a bit more, and you'll be impressed form what I can." Kangaroo said with proud in his voice also raising his nose.

"Well, we are in tunnel, where should we go now?" Murasaki asked the friend of her brother she wasn't intend to have rant with the boy.

"Oh sorry." the boy said and squatted again and put his hand onto the ground, "This way." He pointed to the tunnel that was form their right.

"It seems that you can use your power perfectly." Murasaki said noticed that the boy can use the ground not only for fighting, but also can use it as the compass.

"Well I don't know how it happened, but I'm glad that I could realize my powers, if I still had no powers I could still be an apprentice in our organization."

"By the way, Murasaki, I wanted to ask you, I've heard that our enemy is Miyata Ioshito is it true?" Mechanic decided to ask the question that was interested him from his talk with her brother.

"Yes." she sighed, "And not only him, Naomi Miyamoto is our enemy to."

"Honestly the second name tells me nothing, I only heard some rumors about Miyata, what is he look like?" Mechanic asked.

"You won't make a mush him when you see him." she started to explain, "He enrobed in metal armor that supports his life, he fights with his halberd and lighting abilities, he is a skillful hunter that was a teacher to me, my brother and even to Igawa-san." Murasaki explained.

"What do you mean supports his life?" the man was interested, 'Does it mean that he is the same with Hush?'

"My brother with some Taimanins could defeat him several years ago. And from that moment he is wearing this armor, I don't know what wounds he got, but I know that he could survive that encounter." Mechanic heard that this theme is not good for Murasaki so he decided not ask her about that Miyata.

"I thought that they will give us an opportunity to have some fun with those captivities, but instead of this they will send them somewhere else tomorrow." they heard a voice somewhere in front of them.

"Yeah, I thought the same." the second voice said, this one was a bit ruder than the previous one, "But as I heard, the part of them will be taken somewhere tomorrow."

'Will be taken?' Murasaki thought trying to understand what the man was talking about.

Mechanic turned his head to the boy, and gave him a sign to act. The boy nodded and jumped out from their shelter,

"What the?!" both of the person exclaimed as they saw the boy the prepared their weapons.

'Hunters?!' the boy saw that they took out their weapons; one of them took out a short blade, and another one a katana. The boy put his hands onto the ground and with his power he could get one of them, the man with katana was a bit faster than his companion. The boy prepared his claws to protect himself, but he wasn't able to use them as the man that was about to attack the boy was chopped in two with a massive axe. And in the next moment he saw the woman in white uniform. "Thank you." Kangaroo thanked the woman; she only nodded and looked at the man whose legs were covered with ground.

"Now, tell us where these captivities you were talking about." Murasaki demanded the information.

"Like I'm going to tell you." the man grinned, and in the next moment the axe pierced the ground that was near with the man, "You can intimidate as you want, I'll say you nothing." the man still was grinning.

Mechanic came out of the corner they were hiding before and came to the man that was bounded.

"You know, it's a really reckless thing to annoy this woman." he said him, "Do you realize who is she?"

"Yeah, it's impossible not to recognize the Undying Taimanin." the man said, "But the ones I'm working for are much scarier, so I'd prefer not make them angry." the man emphasized the word 'them', Murasaki quickly understood, that the man was talking about Naomi and Miyata.

"Is Miyata here?" she asked him squeezing the hilt of her axe with her hand.

"Who know, maybe here, maybe not, however if he will find you, he will definitely will…" the man could finish his statement as his head was chopped away with the massive axe.

"Man." Mechanic was a bit surprised with the woman's act, "You're really and easy an exasperated woman."

"Just hate an empty bravado." she answered him removing the blood from her axe.

"I'll keep that in my mind." the man said and get closer to the remains of those two. He started to find something in their pockets, "Here it is." the man said taking out something.

"An ID card?" Murasaki asked him.

"With this baby, we will be able to pass through their protection system." he said it and kissed the card taking it away into the pocket of his vest.

They continued their way, sometimes the boy put his hand onto the ground in order to find the direction they must go. They met some cyborgs and guardians on their way, Murasaki also knew a bit more about those two, she knew that being a small boy Kangaroo was a valuable member of their organization and at the same time the youngest among them. She also understood why it was pretty difficult for her and Rinko to fight that person Hush. As she knew he was one of the strongest persons among them, and there still were lots of those strong people, she was impressed to see Kangaroo when he gets a bit older she saw that it was pretty difficult for Maki and Aki to fight him, in his current state they were equal, but what how he will change after two years of such trainings, maybe he could fight with Sakura or even with herself. They continued their way until the found the massive metal door way.

"Well it seems that it's the place we need." Kangaroo said, "Will the ID card fit for it?"

"Will never know, until we try it." he said and took the card out of his pocket he saw the panel and pressed the card to it and the door was opened, "Sweet." he said and they entered the enemy's base.


"Master Miyata, it's so surprising to see you here." the medium height man in the uniform said seeing another one with metal armor and halberd on his back, "What have brought you here?" it was visible that man had worried voice.

"I was sent to see how the preparations are passing." he merely replied.

"There's no need to worry about it." the man tried to ensure the man that everything is fine, "The transportation is going according to the plan."

"Nice to hear that." Miyata said, "What about those two?"

"Frankly speaking, they still try to resist, but I think they will be broken soon and become perfect addition to Mistress's power."

"Bring me to them I'd like to see them." Miyata said, he knew that the young hunters that were fighting with their allies were now in this shelter, but he didn't know how the process of breaking was going.

They were walking by the white corridors of the shelter. Some people they were meeting bowed to the man when they saw him. Miyata in the sign of respect nodded them with his head greeting them too. The way wasn't long and it wasn't needed for them to leave the building as the young hunters were in the same place they were from the start. When they came to the door they needed, the doctor opened it inputting the password in the console that was in the right from the door and then the door was opened when the door was opened he saw the hunters that were captured during his encounter with Kuro. "Here are they." the man said exposing them to armored hunter. Igarasi and Moritani were bind to the racks on their heads were helmets that were covering their head and face. There also was something in their mouths that reminded a pipe. Miyata ordered to remove things that were been interfering him to see their faces. The helmets were removed and he could see they exhausted faces.

"I must admit, the torturing practice is still on high level in your academy." Miyata mocked them, "Interesting how long will you be able to keep yourself till you submission."

"Damn bastard." Igarasi whispered trying to restore her breath, "Don't think that you'll be able to leave with this."

"Our comrades will find us and you'll pay for everything." Moritani added.

"Yeah, whatever you say, by the way, we also could get some of your comrades." Igarasi's and Moritani's eyes became wider; he could get their attention with these words, "One of them had large bust and purple hair and another one was a boy that has dark hair with a soft face features, he was fighting with the girl that had brownish hair and had impressive strength.

'What?' Moritani thought, 'They could get Rinko and Aki?' the boy was surprised, he turned his head to Igarasi and saw that she bit her lower lip.

"However we weren't able to take that girl, with your teachers, Yatsu Kuro and Murasaki." the man continued, "However, I gave them an opportunity to think that it will be a bad idea to continue to fight us."

"I don't belive you." Igarasi whispered.

"What?" Miyata put on a semblance that he didn't hear the girl.

"Do you really think that you could capture Akiyama Rinko herself?"

"She is much stronger than we are; you're just trying to break our will, nothing more!" Igarasi started to shout, "Just let me to get out of her and I'll kill with my own arms!"

"What an energetic girl." the man that was accompanying Miyata said, "She will be a perfect servant after I break their mind and will."

"Yes, do it as fast as you can I would like to see them among out lines." suddenly a new person entered the room. It was possible to see that the man was relieved seeing the armored man, he came closer to him and whispered something to him, "Are you sure?" the man nodded, "Increase the security, and don't let them escape." the man nodded again and left, 'So we have intruders, interesting who it could be.' Miyata thought after giving his order to the man, he watched at Igarasi, he noticed a slight smile on her face, "Don't worry, they will repeat your destiny." he said her and left the room. The man returned the devices on their places and left the room too.


"So this is how their base looks inside." Kangaroo said pushing his head through from the tunnel. The boy could see a white room that was lit well he could see an empty room, there were nothing but the walls, the cap was slightly open.

"Do you see any camera?" Mechanic asked the boy.

"Right now, I see nothing." the boy answered, and got out of the manhole. Mechanic and Murasaki did the same. When they were in the room they saw the only door that was there, suddenly they heard some step out of the room.

"Did you hear? The security said that there was an earthquake." they heard one voice.

"Really and why it was so suddenly?" the other voice asked the previous one.

"I don't know, maybe we're under attack?" the first voice asked the second one.

"Don't be silly, our base is in the farthest part of the city, if we weren't found till today that means we can sigh peacefully." the second voice laughed.

Suddenly the door was opened and two strong hands dragged those persons straight into the room.

"What the?!" the only thing they could shout and were dragged onto the door way.

When the door was closed Mechanic asked them, "Guys wouldn't you mind to answer our questions?" the trio could see that the guys were frightened; it could only mean that they were not fighters, but only workers of this place. One of them nodded and Murasaki was the first one who asked the first question.

"What is this place?" she asked him with serious tone, the man understood that it will be a bad idea to make then angry.

"It's a center for captivities. Here there are trained and transport to the other locations."

"Other locations?" Murasaki asked him not understanding what locations the man was meaning

"Personally, I don't know what locations they are send them, I'm only here to train them, but in my opinion they are send to the customers that orders them."

"How do you think who could be these customers?" Mechanic asked him.

"Maybe demons or other criminalities, I swear I'm not the one who responds for their transportation!" he raised his voice and Mechanic quickly shut it with his hand. The other person was saying nothing it was difficult to understand was he frightened or not. Kangaroo noticed it, but said nothing.

"Well if you are in charge of trainings." Mechanic continued his interrogation, "Have you seen the guy with white hair he was wearing white shirt with short sleeves and white shorts too?"

"No, I haven't seen him; if I would I'd remember such revealing person."

"Then another question." Murasaki decided to ask him about her comrades too, "Have you seen the other two persons, one of them was a tall girl with big bust and purple hair and another one was a boy with sort cut dark hair, he had a sport costume but under it he has a Taimanin's uniform."
"I think the people you're talking about are in the other shelter, however we have two Taimanin who were captured not long ago."

"Describe them!" Murasaki said demanding she even put her hand onto the hilt of her axe in order to frighten the man a bit, and this worked perfectly.

"The…" the man started to stammer, "The one… is a girl… with a short straw hair… her hair are tied… in a knot… her uniform is white." he described the girl, and then continued, "And the boy… is pretty tall… his hair is black and short… his suit is dark blue… That's all what I can say about them."

'It's definitely them.' Murasaki thought hearing the descriptions of these hunters, she looked at Mechanic and asked him, "Your comrade is not here, so what are you going to do?"

Paul glanced at her, he understood that the Taimanins that person described were her comrades too. His primal mission right now is to save Avalanche, and if it wasn't his friend's sister he would go there to the other location not even thinking. "I think these two are important for you. Then we have no other choice, but save them." Paul smiled and looked at the boy, "And what about you?"

"I'm definitely in too!" Kangaroo replied. Suddenly the boy saw how something gleaming appeared in the hand of the person who was keeping silence, "Look out!" the boy said to Mechanic. The man did a quick swing and tried to pierce that subject in the arm of the man, but the knife only was crushed for lots of pieces.

'A prosthesis?' the man thought and in the next moment Paul hit the man straight in his neck, where was his centrum commune. The power of the strike was strong enough to make the man lose his conscious.

"Have you killed him?" Murasaki asked him.

Mechanic put his hand onto the wrist of the man trying to check his pulse. "No he is alive, I only turn him off. Hey, boy, I know you're perfect with ground, but try to bind them I think these walls are form stone, so you'll be able to do it."

"I'll try." the boy nodded and put his hand onto the wall, the boy squeezed his face likewise it was really difficult for him to manipulate with stone. However the wall started to change it form and bound the hands and legs of those two men. When everything was done Mechanic said to the person that was interrogated.

"Where is the room that is used for captivities?"

"The captivities are in this building and the hunters are in another one. They're still not broken so I think they will be able to help you."

"Thank you." the man said and with another strike cut out the man that gave them lots of valuable information.

"Well what should we do now?" Kangaroo asked his partners.

"Right now it's too risky and reckless to free those innocents; our primal mission is to free you comrades and with their help to free those people."

"Then let's do so." Mechanic nodded at Murasaki's plan. He opened the door glanced the corridor and left the room they were before. They started to sneak by the corridors of the enemy's base they tried to avoid all enemies they saw. The team saw cyborgs and other hunters, but there were more cyborgs then these hunters. The luck was on their side and they could leave the first building somehow. Mechanic and Murasaki understood that their enemies are aware of their presence. When they could find the entrance to the second building they saw a bunch of objects in front of them.

"Got lost?" they saw a man in metal armor straight in front of them. He was surrounded by several cyborgs and they could hear the steps that were outside. "Murasaki, I'm impressed that you could get straight in our maw, after all I'm not surprised as you always were a skillful girl." Murasaki prepared her axe, and Kangaroo his claws, the only one who had no weapon was Mechanic. "So these are the members of that famous 'Red Division'? Just a kid and a man, I've been awaiting something more." Miyata said taking out his halberd.

"I will take him." Murasaki said and ran at Miyata, two cyborgs wanted to attack her protecting the man in the armor, but they quickly were destroyed by Kangaroo and Mechanic. Paul penetrated the chest of the cyborg with his arm and with another one he destroyed its head. Kangaroo used his claws in order to do this he pierced them strait in the robot's head and then with the other arm chopped its head off. Murasaki raised her axed and tried to strike Miyata. The armored man only parried her attack and tried to attack her too. Murasaki closed herself with the hilt of her axe. One cyborg tried to attack Murasaki from behind, but was stopped by Paul. The boy who destroyed the cyborg now was fighting with the person who was using a spear, the man was pretty skillful, but boy's advantage was in his height and in the size of the corridor they were fighting. The corridor was wide but still it was pretty difficult to fight there with such bulky weapons. When the next cyborg was destroyed by Paul, Mechanic decided to help the boy with his opponent. Paul could sneak behind their enemy and grab his spear, the man pressed it towards the floor and broke it with his leg and then hit the enemy with full force straight at his face with his elbow. The space started to become a bit empty.

"I'll go try to find you comrades!" Mechanic shouted to Murasaki.

"Get him!" Miyata ordered to capture the man in the vest who tried to break through the cyborgs clashing his weapon with Murasaki's one again. Two cyborgs were on their way to get Mechanic but suddenly their legs were bound with stone. Mechanic turned his head nodded to the boy thanking him and continued his way. Murasaki pushed Miyata away and tried to catch her breath.

"You know it would be really good if you would join us." he said to Murasaki, "After all you always were my best student."

"Sorry, but I don't work for bad guys." she merely responded, "The only question I was asking myself since I knew that you're involved in these kidnappings was why had you betray us." she said but then continued, "You who always protected justice, betrayed us without a single word."

"If you can beat me I'll tell you." Miyata said and started to gleam.


Mechanic was running at full speed, he met lots of enemies in front of him; however he defeated all of them successfully. Cyborgs were only meddlesome objects for him as they hadn't got any help form real hunters. He also met another betrayer of Taimanin, he was pretty strong, as Mechanic understood he had the power that allowed manipulating the wind, but it didn't help him too much. The man was fighting with daggers, Mechanic played on enemy's nescience f that he had prosthesis of all four limbs, and the man paid dearly for this, when he thought that he will pierce his dagger into Paul's arm, Paul didn't dodge it and let his blade to hit his arm, the blade of the man sledged by Paul's arm and while his opponent was confused with this he did a strong strike at his arm, he heard how the bone of that man cracked and then he did a strong hit at the man's chest, and he felt again how his ribs cracked. Then he continued his way, he was watching all rooms until he found the one he needed.

When he found it he saw two persons in Taimanin uniform that were bound to racks they head helmets on their heads and some pipes in their mouths. He some a man that was standing near with them, the man was frightened, Mechanic took advantage of his confusion, and knocked out the man he came closer to the young captured hunters, 'It seems that it's a brainwashing machine.' he said and looked at the computer that was near with the wall, he came to it and looked at the screen of the device. He saw the data about their current state, he quickly understood that the children were resisting well to the machine, he started to click the buttons and somehow he could release the kids. When the helmets were removed along with the pipes, he run to them and started to untie them. Igarasi opened her eyes and asked the man, "Who are you?" she said weakly.

"Don't worry, just a little unexpected help." he said with a smile he untied the girl first and then heard her voice again.

"Look out!"

Mechanic turned his head and saw how the two cyborgs were on their way to attack him, he fast turned around and hit one of them with his leg, the strike wasn't critical and the cyborg just merely teetered, another one tried get the man with the blade that appeared from its arm Mechanic dodged the lunge and grabbed the arm of the cyborgs and then with a circling threw the second at the first cyborg. Igarasi tried to get up in order to help the man, but she could as she had no power to do it. Moritani opened his eyes and saw how some man was fighting to cyborgs, when the man threw one robot at the other one, he started to unbound the young Taimanin. When the boy was free he heard Igarasi's voice again. "Have you come to save us?"

"Something like this." he merely responded, "Your friend is taking the enemy's attention while I'm freeing you."

"Is it commander Kuro?" Igarasi asked him again.

"No, his sister." he saw how the girl's eyes became wider, "She will explain you everything later, the most important right now is that you can fight or not?"

"Our powers are suppressed with a drug." he heard the boy's voice this time and our weapon was taken away."

"I see, in such state you won't fight much." he pondered, "And it's also dangerous to leave you hear." he put his hand into the pocket of his vest and took out a syringe out of it they saw that there was some liquid.

"What do you want to do to us?" Igarasi put herself on guard.

"Don't worry, this thing will return you powers." he merely responded her and inserted the syringe at her arms and inserted the half of it in her arm and then came to the boy and di absolutely the same, "Your powers will come soon." then he put his hand onto his arm and said likewise he contacted something else, "Kangaroo do you need a help?"

"Well right now no, but it won't be excess."

"Tell our friend that her allies are safe but no too sound, if you don't need our help right now we will save the other captivities."

"Roger!" he heard Kangaroo's voice.

"Follow me." he said them and they started to follow him.


"Your comrades are found and saved!" Kangaroo shouted to Murasaki closing his head with his claws protecting it from the cyborg's blade.

Murasaki answered nothing he heard what the boy said. Murasaki had some wounds and scratches, on her body, Kangaroo had some wounds too. The armor of the man was buttered slightly too. 'How should I penetrate his defense?' Murasaki thought dodging his halberd once again, 'If not his lighting, maybe I could do something.' Suddenly she saw how he did a swing with the hilt of his halberd Murasaki closed with the hilt of her axe, and then Miyata quickly his her axe with the blade of the halberd knocking out her weapon out of her hands, and then he hit the floor with his halberd releasing lighting straight at Murasaki. The woman had nothing to protect herself and accepted the attack. She flew away straight at the wall leaving scratches on it. 'Damn it! It was really painfully.' she opened her eyes and saw how the man was going to her with his halberd prepared for a final hit.

"You became strong Murasaki." he said, "But still not that strong to defeat the one who taught you."

Suddenly the man stopped and couldn't make even a single move. "What the…!" he lowered his head and saw that his legs were covered with ground.

"Good thing that you destroyed the floor and let some ground accessible for me." Miyata heard Kangaroo's voice.

"Damn kid." Miyata was irritated of this boy. He swung with his halberd and crushed the ground that bound him and jumped away from the place where the floor was destroyed. Murasaki got up and took her weapon here wounds started to disappear pretty quickly however her uniform still had some ripen places. Murasaki jumped to the boy and stood in front of him be ready to protect him.

"Good reaction boy." Kangaroo heard Murasaki's voice.

"Thanks." he referred her, 'If only he wasn't so fast, maybe I could get him.' the boy thought putting his hand onto the bag that was in his belt.

Miyata did another swing and released lighting at his enemies, the floor was cracked and he decided to check the power of that boy. Kangaroo squatted and put his hands onto the floor a ground wall appeared form the floor and protected the woman and the boy from man's lighting, but the discharge was strong enough to destroy the wall completely into pieces. The boy and Murasaki flew away, if Murasaki could land on her legs the boy fell down onto the floor. Kangaroo started to get up when Miyata was on his way to get him, but Murasaki appeared between him and the boy and save him blocking Miyata's halberd.

"Let's see how long you'll be able to stand against me." he said seriously, Murasaki understood that the man started to fight more seriously and it's the time for a real fight.


"Now escape this place!" Mechanic ordered to run the people that were in cages breaking one lock after another.

"But what about the guardians?" he heard someone's voice.

"Don't worry. They'll make sure that you'll leave this place safe and sound." Mechanic pointed at Igarasi and Moritani.

"What?" Igarasi was surprise hearing this, "We must help to Yatsu-sensei!"

"My partner said that they can deal with their opponent, and I'll leave in order to clean up this place and protect your back at the same time."

"Why should we belive you?" Igarasi asked him, "How can we be sure that it's not another trap?"

"First of all if it would be a trap, would I give a something that removed the effect of the drug you got?" Mechanic asked her, "Second do you seriously think that I'd let you return your weapons." he pointed at Igarasi's tonfas and boy's katana, "And third aren't you suppose to protect ordinary people?"

'Shit, can't even argue with this.' Igarasi thought, she looked at people's frightened faces she understood that they must be got out of here, but the only ones who help them do this were they.

"Igarasi-san." Moritani said, "Let's do how he said, if he would really be our enemy, he wouldn't do this for us."

"Fine." the girl said annoyed, "But, when this all ends you'll tell us who the hell you are!"

"If I have time." Mechanic said, and then added, "Beware there must be some cyborgs above, and I think you'll deal with them." Igarasi and Moritani nodded and left the prison with the captivities.

When he left alone he left it too and started to run by the corridors again, "Where was this room?" he asked himself. He was looking for the room with a big computer that he suddenly found while he was looking for the captivities. After some minutes he found it, the room had a big computer in it the man dealt with some cyborgs while he was searching for it. When he came to the computer he started to press a lot of buttons. "Come on, work!" he said to the Machine, "If only Hush was here." the man lamented. After some manipulation he turned on the computer and widened his eyes, "So that's whom they wanted to send those captivities." he inserted the USB and started to copy the information from the computer.


"Man, how we suppose to defeat him?" Kangaroo moaned, the boy was a good fighter, but he was so skillful fighting such strong opponents as Miyata, 'If only Mechanic was here.' he admitted that if he would fight him alone, he would lost he in the beginning of their fight, "Murasaki was a strong fighter too, her regenerating abilities gave an advantage in battle, while Kangaroo was distracting the man in the metal armor, Murasaki could heal her wounds. Miyata even tried to chop off the hand of his former pupil, but he was stopped by Kangaroo. Murasaki didn't want to admit it, but she started to like her partnership with Kangaroo. He was too young, but still he knew, what Murasaki wanted, and did it without saying anything. The only ones who were such good Taimanins were Tatsurou and Yukikaze, however Tatsurou was indecisive, and Yukikaze was temperamental, so they could do lots of mistakes, but still they were pretty good for their age. However even they were pretty far from that boy.

"How irritating." Miyata looked at the boy, "Why didn't I take those twins?" he said out loud.

"Don't you want to give up?" Murasaki decided to provoke her mentor, "If you do so, I think we will spare you." she wanted to displease the man, in order to force him to do a mistake and use it.

"Don't worry Murasaki, it's not working in me." she heard how the man even smiled. Then he ran towards them again with his halberd in readiness. And when he did another swing something has suddenly hit him. Miyata flew away, but still could land onto his knee; he raised his head and saw the man in the vest that was standing where he was a while ago.

"Just in time!" Kangaroo exclaimed seeing his comrade.

"Let's finish this quickly." Mechanic said and ran to Miyata. He started to attack him with his fists and legs, Miyata protected himself perfectly. But it was difficult for him to fight the fighter with his massive weapon. Even boys attacks were easy to read for him. Murasaki joined Mechanic and started to fight her mentor again. The boy on the other hand continued to sit on the floor. He removed his claws and put his hands into the back that was on his belt. In another moment his arms were covered with something, he saw how Murasaki backed away for taking some breath; he ran to her and said.

"Do you have super power?" he saw a puzzled expression on her face, "Using such massive weapon you definitely should have it." he didn't give her an opportunity to respond and continued, "Can you throw me at him?"

"What?" Murasaki was surprised hearing this.

"Long time to explain, please do it!" he raised his voice. Murasaki understood that the boy was serious and it wasn't the right time to ask extra questions. She released her axe and grabbed the boy. She did a spin and then threw the boy straight at Miyata who was fighting Mechanic now.

Miyata started to take up over Paul, and started to attack him more severely, Paul could even hear how his halberd did some dents on his arms, 'Shit, if he continues like this he will destroy my arms!' Mechanic thought and then he suddenly saw how the armored man started to sparkle, and in the next moment the man in the vest flew away from the discharge of Miyata. "Nice try, but you should beat more accurately, in order to over fool me." Miyata smirked and turned his head, to Murasaki, he saw how the boy was flying straight at him. Miyata tried to dodge from the boy, but the boy was faster, and he cannoned straight at Miyata. The both of them fell down onto the floor and rolled for a bit. The boy could put his hands at Miyata's ones and the substance that was covering his arms come to the armored man. Miyata wasn't going to wait when the boy gets off of him and with a kick at boys stomach released himself. Miyata quickly got up and started to sparkle again he stretched his right arm, but there was nothing.

"What the…?!" the man shouted and then he saw that his arms were covered with something strange. "What the hell is this?!"

'Not bad boy." Mechanic thought, seeing confusion of their enemy.

"Taimanin! Now!" Murasaki heard Kangaroo's hoarse voice.

Murasaki understood that the boy planned this trick and nodded; she grabbed her axe and ran to her former mentor. Miyata raised his head and saw how his former student was running to him. 'I want loose so easily.' Miyata thought and decided to retreat, but when tried to jump away, his legs were bound to the floor. "What?!" he lowered his head and saw that his legs were bound with the ground that was beyond the floor. He tried to use his lighting again, but it was useless as it went straight to the floor. He raised his head once again and saw how his former pupil was near with him with her axe, prepared and in the next moment she did a swing cutting his upper part of the body from the lower one. The man's trunk fell onto the ground with a ringing sound, while his legs were covered with the ground.

"Not bad, Murasaki." She heard Miyata's lowered and husky voice.

"Is he still alive?" Mechanic was surprised that Miyata still could talk in such state.

"Don't worry in such state he is not dangerous." Murasaki said and came closer to him. She looked at him, her eyes were fool of anger, but still she didn't decide to finish him off. "Now tell why you betrayed us!" Murasaki ordered, "Why did you follow Naomi?!"

"Because I have no other chance." he coughed, Murasaki saw how blood started to poor out of his armor, "Because I was owe to her."

"Owe?" Murasaki didn't understand what her former teacher meant.

"Only if not that case, I would never follow her."

"What case?" Murasaki still didn't understand him.

"Ask Asagi about it, she must know what I'm talking about." he said and then put his hand onto another and started to press some buttons on the console that was on it and I next moment they heard a siren, "This place will exploded soon you have at least three minutes to leave it or you'll be buried here with me." Miyata did a pause, "This is the last thing I can do, in order to destroy you." Murasaki heard some notes of revealing in his voice, she understood that he gave them the time to escape. Murasaki turned and ran away to the exit. Mechanic did the same, but before the escape he put Kangaroo onto his back. "Goodbye Murasaki." Miyata said calmly and hit the ground with his elbow.


"Yatsu-sensei?" Igarasi and Moritani were surprised to see her teacher running like a crazy away from something. "What is happening?" Moritani asked her.

"There's no time to explain." the young Taimanin heard her voice and understood that it would be better to follow her. They left the building and ran to the outside and in next moment they jumped over the fence. And when they did it two building that were behind them exploded. The blast wave was strong enough to push all them back. When they turned their head they saw nothing, but burning remains of those buildings.

"Just in time." they heard the voice of the youngest one.

"Yeah, if we would delay for some second we would be buried there too." Mechanic agreed with his comrade, and then he turned his head to the young Taimanins, "Well if the two of you are here that means that the other captivities are safe and sound."

"Yes, they are." Igarasi nodded, "So it was true isn't it sensei?" she turned to Murasaki, "I mean that this man is our ally."

"Right now, he is." she referred to the straw haired girl, "By the way how are you?" she asked her students.

"Pretty fine." Moritani said, "If not the medicine that this man gave us we wouldn't be able to save that people." Murasaki looked at Paul.

"Don't watch at me with such eyes, I gave only the medicine that removed the effect of the drug that suppressed their abilities and increase their physical potential, nothing more." he saw a slight smile on her.

"Don't worry, I understood that I can belive you. If my brother is sure in you then I have no needs doubt to doubt in you."

"Nice to hear that." Mechanic answered.

"By the way, did you like to work with me don't you?" Kangaroo asked the woman, "This throw, by the way, was amazing."

"It would be much better to have such a talented person in our ranks." Murasaki said seriously, "Would you like to join us?"

"Hey, don't even try gain him over, he is valuable to our organization." Mechanic did put on a semblance that he was indignant with such offer.

"No, thanks." Kangaroo rejected her offer, "Our commander will be really man if he know that I joined you, however If I have an opportunity to work with you again then, I'll do it not even thinking." Kangaroo smiled widely. Igarasi and Moritani were surprised seeing such relation between those two, they were acting not as friends, but as good acquaints.

"What should we do now?" Murasaki asked him, "Return to your shelter, it's the only thing we can do right now." Paul sighed.

"Shouldn't we help the other team?" Kangaroo asked him.

"Hush is with them, so I think they will be fine."

"That's the thing I'm afraid of." Kangaroo sighed.

"Another team?" Moritani asked Murasaki.

"I'll tell you details when we'll be in the shelter." Igarasi and Moritani nodded and left the place they invaded a while ago.
