Hello everyone, welcome to Chapter 10. I hope you like this chapter, I couldn't wait to write a part near the end of this chapter.

First, Guahimrax01, I'm sorry, but I'm not going to do that Lion King story either, it's just too out of the blue for my liking, plus something like this wouldn't get passed the Cloak Figure, if this actually happened, he would have stop it before it got to Xadia, and then he would used one of his many powers to stuff Scar's soul in a object and then locked that object away for eternity.

Next MorphIIIdragonX, the answer is both, we'll have to see how things go in the Kumandra arc, before I set anything in stone.

Lastly for a guest, No thank you, I've already started making an antagonist who will give the Cloak Figure a lot of headaches for a long time. This Villain thinks they are the divine saver that will bring an age of true freedom and eternal prosperity to all of humanity across the universe, the problem is, that they think the only way to do that is to kill everything, that a universe without nature is the only way to achieve those goals.

Chapter 10

The Tower Among The Frozen Flames

Kyoto, Achiwa Hall

After a bit of running, Conan, Heiji, Allen, and Janai reached the shed that got blown up, but was stopped by a cop. "You don't want to get any closer than this." The Cop said to everyone. "What's going on?" Ayanokoji asked the cop, as he came running up to everyone.

"Inspector!" The cop said to Ayanokoji, before saluting him. "Another bomb?" Ayanokoji asked the cop. "Yes, sir. One victim. The body's in bad shape. We won't be able to identify it until we get back to the morgue." The cop said to Ayanokoji, as Conan used his glasses to find anything out of place, and found an odd hole in the remains of the shed.

"So the bomb was set here. The question is exactly how and when?" Ayanokoji asked everyone, as Conan left to figure out what made that hole in the shed. "Based on early evidence, we think it's possible the victim brought the bomb in himself, sir." the cop said to Ayanokoji. "He what?" Ayanokoji asked the cop.

'Nagoro accidentally blew himself up?' Heiji thought, confused by all this. "How? You guys had every way in with guards. Even if he got in, you should have found a bomb at least." Janai asked Ayanokoji. "I don't know." Ayanokoji said to Janai. "Start the autopsy at once." Ayanokoji said to the cop.

That's when Heiji, Allen, and Janai noticed Conan standing at a tree, and moved to him, as Ayanokoji's phone buzzed. "Yes, this is Inspector Ayanokoji." Ayanokoji said, answering his phone.

"What's wrong?" Heiji asked Conan. "Did you find something?" Allen asked Conan. "Everyone, take a look at that." Conan said to everyone, as he pointed to a damaged distinctive silver ring in the tree.

"What is it? A ring?" Heiji asked everyone. "Probably the victim's." Conan said to everyone. "And why does it look familiar?" Janai asked everyone, as Ayanokoji walked up to them.

"There you are. What have you found?" Ayanokoji asked everyone. "Take a look at the ring in this tree. We think it may be the victim's." Heiji said to Ayanokoji. "It's rather bulky." Ayanokoji said to everyone. "Yeah, they're not usually so big." Heiji said to Ayanokoji. "It looks like it belongs on a thump." Janai said to everyone.

That's when Conan had a revelation, and realized this ring was Kaieda's ring. "It's Kaieda!" Conan said to everyone. "Huh? Wait, you mean Achiwa's secretary? Togo Kaieda?" Heiji asked Conan.

"Yeah, I'm positive! In pictures, he was always wearing it on his thumb!" Conan said to everyone, as they looked at the ring. "That's right. I saw it on his thumb in one of the magazine pictures. That's why it looks familiar." Janai said to everyone.

"If that's his ring, is Kaieda our murderer?" Ayanokoji asked everyone. "No… No, because if we hadn't found this ring, then we would be absolutely sure that the body over there is Nagoro's!" Heiji said to Ayanokoji, as he pointed his thumb at the shed.

"Now I see… This bomb was supposed to make it look like Mr. Nagoro had died." Conan said to everyone. "Hold on. If the real murderer wanted to make it look like Nagoro was dead. Then what about the other two maple leaf cards? They've probably already been sent out to the targets!" Heiji said to everyone.

"We already know one." Ayanokoji said, getting everyone's attention. "I got another call from Inspector Otaki. And he told me that he had Mr. Achiwa's secretary go over his emails again. A Karuta card had arrived in the mail this morning." Ayanokoji said to everyone.

"Which means there's only one card left." Heiji said to everyone. "But why didn't… Oh no!" Allen said to everyone, before he had a revelation. "What is it?" Janai asked Allen, as everyone turned to him.

"First it's odd that Achiwa didn't tell us about the card. But the problem is this, we have one card missing, and we know two of them are meant for Momiji and Achiwa. And right now, the two of them and one more person are together. If one card is left, then…" Allen said to everyone, as Heiji realized what he was talking about.

"Oh no, Inspector! Get someone to check Kazuha Toyama's phone, hurry!" Heiji said to Ayanokoji. "Huh? Yeah! But tell me what's going on?" Ayanokoji asked Heiji. "That's why there's only one card not accounted for! The killer held onto it because he didn't know who was gonna make it to the finals!" Heiji said to Ayanokoji.

This made Ayanokoji gasp, as he realized what he ment. "You're saying… His targets! Are the finalists in the Satsukido!" Ayanokoji said to everyone. "Which means, we need to move! NOW!" Allen said to everyone, as they ran to the Satsukido.

In the Satsukido, with the cards laid out, and Momiji and Kazuha ready, Achiwa looked at Momiji and Kazuha with a sad look on his face. "I am sorry that it had to be you." Achiwa said to them, confusing them both.

"I know there is such pressure in a match of this caliber, but play to the best of your abilities." Achiwa said to them. "We'll do our very best." Kazuha and Momiji said to Achiwa, at the same time, as they bowed to Achiwa.

In the viewing hall, everyone got excited as the finals started. "Ready set… Go Kazuha!" Ayumi, Genta, and Mitsuhiko said that at the same time. 'Time to show them just how skilled you are.' Shizuka thought, as she watched the match.

Outside, Conan, Allen, Heiji, Janai, and Ayanokoji were running back to the main area, when Ayanokoji's phone vibrated. "What have you got? Did you find the card?" Ayanokoji asked the person on his phone, making everyone stop.

Back in the tent with the bags, the police went through Kazuha's stuff and found the email with the Karuta card. "Yes, she just got it. About 15 minutes ago." A cop said to Ayanokoji, over the phone.

"A poem was sent to Kazuha." Ayanokoji said to everyone. "Tell them to cancel the finals right now and get moving!" Ayanokoji said to the cop, over the phone, before they all started to run again.

In the security room, the police told the security guard to cancel the finals. "What? Sir, you want me to cancel the finals? Yes, sir. Right away! One moment, I'll give them a call!" The guards said to his phone, as he reached for a phone on the wall.

But once he pulled the phone off the wall, it triggered an explosion, setting fire to the base of the Satsukido as well as the lake in front of it. But inside, the place shook a little, surprising Momiji and Kazuha. "Just an earthquake. I'm certain it's not benign enough to worry about." Achiwa said to them.

Back in the viewing hall, the video suddenly turned off, confusing everyone. "Hey, why'd it cut out?" Mitsuhiko asked everyone. "Do you think maybe it's broken?" Ayumi asked everyone. "Oh, come on. It was getting to the best part!" Genta said, complaining.

"A black out?" Mikiko asked everyone. "No, the lights are on." Shizuka said to everyone. "Somethings wrong. I got a bad feeling about this." Kali said to everyone.

In the Satsukido, Kazuha, Momiji, and Achiwa played their Karuta game not knowing the tower was on fire. While playing, Momiji took a card, with Kazuha not even moving an inch.

'Thought so. Miss Leaf didn't even try. She won't bother going for the cards I'm good at.' Momiji thought, as Achiwa started to read the next charge. That's when Kazuha moved at high speed, and swatted the card, surprising Momiji.

Outside, Conan, Allen, Heiji, Janai, and Ayanokoji reached the Satsukido and saw it and the lake on fire. "That's no ordinary fire. There must be some kind of Accelerant fueling the fire, Inspector." A cop said to Ayanokoji.

"Have the Firefighters arrived yet?" Ayanokoji asked the cop. "The roads in the garden are so narrow that there's now way for the engines to get through." the cop said to Ayanokoji.

"It's only a matter of time before the tower goes up in flames!" Ayanokoji said to everyone. "Yes sir." The cop said to Ayanokoji. "Then the game is up." Ayanokoji said to everyone.

"It can't be up! Kazuha is in danger! We have to do something?!" Heiji asked everyone. 'If only I had my powers. I could stop this fire. Reshiram, Kyurem, please help me.' Allen though, looking at his clench fists.

That's when Allen's eyes glowed white and gray, and his blood veins started to glow white and gray with the glow looking like it was flowing into the gray trinket, turning the whole circle white. And inside the gray trinket, the white crystal ring started to glow a bright white and gray glow, and shaking, causing a small crack to appear in it.

Xadia: The Sunfire Camp

In Janai's tent, Allen's staff started to shake as a white portal appeared. Then Allen's staff started to spin like a wheel before going into the portal.

Kyoto, Achiwa Hall

Back at the hall, Allen stopped glowing, and his staff came bursting out of the gray trinket, surprising everyone, as it rolled on the ground. Allen's staff then stopped near the end of the lake, with base in the ground and the touch sticking up.

The sight of the staff made Allen and Janai smirk, while everyone else had a shocked look on their faces. "What is that?" Ayanokoji asked everyone. "That is a gift from Reshiram, the God of Truth, his power of truth made physical." Allen said to everyone, as he walked to his staff.

"Conan, Heiji. Keep your eyes open, and witness Turth's Boundless power!" Allen said to Conan and Heiji, as he pulled his staff out of the ground, and held it up to the sky. Allen then glowed white and gray, turning into his White Kyurem form, making everyone but Janai scream and move back.

"WHAT THE HECK IS THAT?!" A cop asked everyone while yelling. "The power of two Great Dragons, entrusted to their champion." Janai said to the cops, everyone started to look at Allen with a look of disbelief, as Allen turned to everyone.

"You all might want to take cover." Allen said to everyone, as a red sphere appeared around Allen with the fabric on Allen's left arm, the pony tail on the left side of his head, and his staff glowing red. This caused Janai to move in front of Conan and Heiji, and turn on her heat-being mode, but still letting Conan and Heiji watch Allen.

"ICE BURN!" Allen said, as he started to twirl his staff around, letting out many streams of fire with the center of the flames being light blue. Allen then slammed his staff into the lake, causing the lake to rumble as it and the flames on it froze. The ice then started to spread, freezing the Satsukido, making ice appear on the waterfall, and covering the cliff wall in frost.

But the ice also spread to land, freezing the ground around the lake, freezing Ayanokoji and the police shoes a thin layer of ice. Lucky Janai's heat-being mode kept the ice away from her, Conan, and Heiji's feet.

Then the ice stopped spreading, and everyone turned to Allen, as it started to snow. They could see as everything was frozen, like time itself stopped, and were at awe by this.

That's when Allen turned to see Ayanokoji and the police were stuck, and a sheepish look appeared on his face. "Ah ah ah, sorry. I didn't think it would speed that much. We'll… just go… rescue the girls…, and be back for… you all…" Allen said to Ayanokoji and the police, before he ran onto the lake and towards the Satsukido.

"Come on, let's go." Janai said to Heiji and Conan, as she went after Allen. "Sorry." Conan said to Ayanokoji and the police, as he ran past them, and went after Allen and Janai. "We'll be right back." Heiji said to Ayanokoji and the police, as he ran past them, and went after everyone else.
