A/N: Sup Y'all, Here is the next Chapter as this will be the end of the Second Arc of Part 2. No w some of you may have questions as to how someone who can kill many demons and humans without breaking a sweat was struggling in the last chapter? Well in case it wasn't obvious, Kaiser's bloodlust gives him power as every Kill makes him stronger, sort like EXP in a RPG...eh,ehhh...anyways since he didn't kill anyone and was fighting robots he couldn't get stronger nor heal himself effectively since this Power of his can only work on living things with a soul. This power of his also not only gives Kaiser strength but as in the earlier chapters it can also enrich those around him as they get a buff too but at a cost.

I hope was able to explain properly how our protagonist gets his power up as further down the story Kaiser will again items and be able to use his power with more precision as he learns more of his forgotten past.

Anyway if you guys got questions or want to chat, you where to find me and now for the show.

Chapter 6

Truths hidden within Hearts of Glass.

***Tokyo Kingdom Red Light District***

As the team made it's way back to the red light district of the Tokyo Kingdom Kotaro's mind was on Kaiser that mysterious power of his as Kaiser wasn't a Taimanin in the traditional sense since he could not manipulate the Taima Particles nor did he have a ninja art like the rest of them did. Kaiser wasn't even apart of the Onmyouji Agency as he also didn't have the ability to use Spiritual Energy nor did he have demonic blood flowing in his veins for him to use Magic. So the question was... what was the power that Kaiser wield that allowed him to shrug off bullets, run faster and hit harder than a normal human, heal injuries and accelerate his recovery, and finally instill a deep sense of...Rage inside of him?

These questions and thoughts plagued Kotaro's curious mind as he knew asking Kaiser would reveal nothing since the young man in question didn't even know what it was that gave him power, all knew was how to wield it and even then he only used it in a blunt almost primitive way as it seems that Kaiser couldn't fully utilize it to its full potential.

'Who or What is Kaiser Wrath...?' Kotaro thought to himself as he walked beside his friends and teacher. He has so many questions and with no answers in sight. He tried to shake off these thoughts and focus on getting the data they've gathered to The Madame as soon as possible so they could finally end this mission and move on to the next one.

While Kotaro was lost in his thoughts, Murasaki had her thoughts as she had to report back to Asagi about the mission and... Kaiser Wrath. When the young Outsider first appeared in Gosha, Murasaki didn't think too much of the boy who had amnesia and was the adoptive son of the Mizuki's. He was by all words... a nuisance and inconsequential to the Taimanin... that was until the Dies Irea Incident. Murasaki saw from the news and CC footage of the very same Outsider Young Boy who was given little to no training or resources was able to unleash destruction and death on scale that a 15-year-old boy shouldn't be able to do.

Kaiser Wrath possessed incredible healing capabilities that could rival Murasaki's own Immortality Awakening as well as enhanced speed and strength that surpassed any Taimanin or normal human. Kaiser even possessed the ability to intimidate others with his Aura alone, the boy became more than some Outsider, he became a icon and symbol of pure unadulterated power. All this power wielded by 15-year-old boy with no history or control over said power was ticking time bomb for Elders and Taimanin in general that when they captured him... no capture was not the proper term. Kaiser turn himself in of his own free will after he had rescue Shiranui Mizuki and was subjected to the Taimanin interrogation that reveal that the boy didn't know what the power was that he wield nor did he know anything of his past all he knew is that he could use this crimson energy by instincts alone.

Despite being a dangerous threat to the Taimanin and Japan in general, Kaiser showed no violent intent toward humans and nor any desire for evil. But Murasaki knew that Kaiser Wrath could not be trusted as no matter how useful or seemingly harmless he was, his sheer power made him unpredictable and dangerous. And so The Elders decided that it was better to nip the problem in the bud before Kaiser grew stronger and out of control, thus... they decided to sentence him to a public execution. This decision was radical that even Asagi was against it at first but due to the politics and trouble that Kaiser had cause there was nothing she could do. Murasaki at the time could care less for the death of one Outsider who was a troublemaker and a headache for Lady Asagi but when Shiranui awoke from her 3 day coma and gather all the progressive clans for the release of her adoptive son it was then that Murasaki saw something in Kaiser.

Kaiser Wrath had gained something of a hero status amongst the younger Taimanin and so the Elders had no choice but to free him less they suffer another civil war from within. They watched in frustration and in anger, as Kaiser was a free man once again. Something Murasaki believe was a mistake as she feared that Kaiser would bring about a terrible end to the Taimanin but over time she began to understand him by spending time with Kaiser as his teacher. It was then that she saw that Kaiser was not a threat nor was he some demon but a child trying to make sense of himself and his place in the world. He was just a boy who care for those around him deeply and was someone who would give up everything to protect them... in a way Kaiser was like Murasaki in a way that she would do anything for Lady Asagi Igawa as Murasaki was deeply infatuated with Asagi.

And so, Kaiser had won Murasaki over as his teacher and she began to see him as her own student. She no longer saw Kaiser as a threat but a bright future as a Taimanin who needed guidance and training. Murasaki tried to take him under her wing but due to young man's dislike for authority after they tried to kill him made him keep his distance from her and did everything he could to rebel against those in charge. It also didn't help that Kaiser found out the Yatsu Clan and Igawa Clan were one of the few clans that remain neutral throughout the whole ordeal but were not against his execution mostly due to Clans politics. Murasaki realize now that her clan had made a mistake in distrusting Kaiser as there was more than meets the eye with him but Murasaski still wasn't ready to give up on him.

The relationship between Murasaki and Kaiser was tense but still good in someway. Murasaki did teach Kaiser some of her techniques and he was the only one to excel at her intense workouts. She did felt pride when she saw Kaiser fighting alongside Kotaro and his team, protecting them with everything he had as Murasaki saw the noble and gentle heart the boy had.

***Front Entrance of Club Persona***

As the team reached the Brothel, Kotaro and his team discuss with their teacher as to what their next move was.

"Well, we made it... that Old Hag better be thankful for the data we got her after all that trouble we went through for it." Kaiser grumbled.

"I can only hope that she keeps her end of the deal..." Kotaro muse hoping that negotiations went through with out any more hassles.

Murasaki spoke up breaking the two boys from their thoughts.

"Things might get complicated if I go with you, so I'll wait outside. Contact me if anything happens." Murasaki said as she also wanted to contact Asagi as soon as possible on some recent developments with Kaiser.

"Understood." Kotaro responded with a serious but confident tone.

"Don't worry Teach. With One-Eye here these negotiations will go down without a hitch." Kaiser said as he patted Kotaro on the back.

"I wasn't worry about Kotaro." Murasaki said sternly as her eyes shifted towards Kaiser.

"What?!" Kaiser tried to give a innocent look as everyone how much of a hot head he was.

"(sigh) Nevermind. Be careful." Murasaki sigh as she gave the Independent Rangers a reassuring smile.

"We'll be alright Sensei." Kotaro said before him and his team enter the Brothel.

Kotaro's team pass through the club's Patrons and workers as they all looked at the team like they were big shots. The suited bodyguard greeted the team before they were escorted to the elevator as they arrive to the Madame's office. As they enter the office The Madame was at her desk drinking a glass of wine as she was looking over some documents.

"It sounds like you kids made quite the mess." The Madame implied as she probably was keeping tabs on the team during their mission.

"No Thanks to you, Fucking Old Hag." Kaiser said with discontent as the Madame kept her cool but if one looks closely you could see her veins pop out as well as her keeping a force smile to keep up appearance.

"Kai..." Kotaro said with exhaustion as he knew what was coming next and tried to deescalate the situation.

"Shut It One-Eye, we're not here for tea party with this old hag! " Kaiser retorted with anger, trying to take a seat from the desk as the Madame put on a frown. "You fucking lied about the place being some gangers hideout and forgot to mention that it was a base run by the U.S.F! My friends and I nearly died because of that you bitch!"

"Kaiser stop!" Kotaro yelled in alarm, trying to reason with Kaiser. " What's done is done and we've held up our side of the bargain Madame."

Kaiser heeded his friend's request as he was left to stew in his own juices that were set to boil over if the Madame was set to test him any further. Kotaro presented the Hard Drive that contained all the data from the U.S.F base as he set it down on the Madame's desk.

"We went through a lot of trouble for this since all our preparations prior went to waste due to faulty intel provided and my friend here had to pick up most of the slack which is the reason for his current sour mood." Kotaro pointed out towards Kaiser as he eloquently listed out their grievances. "So if you don't mind..."

As the Madame took a sip of her wine with her hand she monition to a man who was standing in the corner to make himself known. The man was a younger middle-aged man with, dark gray to black hair and gray eyes. He wears glasses and lab coat. He also has a scar on his neck.

The man was seen many times on classified documents and wanted posters. This man was none other than Kiryu Sabto.

"Well fuck...I guess this saves us the trouble of looking for the worm." Kaiser said while eyeing Kiryu with caution.

"I thought you were going to tell us his whereabouts instead of bring him here." Kotaro said as he was surprised at the turn of events.

"Well since you had to go through a bit of trouble to acquire the data, I thought a bit of...compensation was due." The Madame said as she gave Kotaro a sly smile.

"Your damn fucking right some compensation is fucking due." Kaiser grumbled out as he gave Kiryu the stink eye.

"Kaiser, Shut it!" Kotaro elbowed his friend as he didn't want this gesture of good will be spoiled by a disgruntled Kaiser Wrath. "Well then Madame, on behalf of the Independent Rangers, we graciously accept it."

"Very well then and with that I think our business is concluded." The Madame push Kiryu towards the Independent Rangers as Kaiser roughly grabbed the man by his arm and gave him a look that warned the man to just try something funny.

"I hope your ready for all the trouble you caused us." Kaiser growled out.

"Wait! I never said I was going back!" Kiryu protested.

"Oh but didn't we have a deal? You said you'd go back and I'll provide you those vulgar aphrodisiacs you wanted?" The Madame said out loud further digging the hole Kiryu found himself in.

"Oh is that so..." Kaiser growled out as his anger was now reaching critical towards the scientist.

"Yeah, we did, but that was if Murasaki came to pick me up!" Kiryu added as he was trying to break Kaiser's grip off his arm.

It was then that Kaiser had heard enough from the Mad Scientist as he grabbed Kiryu by the throat and lifted him.

"Listen here you Sniveling Piece of Shit. We went through a shit ton of trouble and nearly died to bring your worthless ass back to Gosha, unharmed I might add, on the off chance that you will provide yourself loyal to the Taimanin and not be some traitor who I will happily crush like the roach you are if you give me a reason to." Kaiser growled out.

Kiryu soon was placed down on his knees as he held his throat trying to catch his breath.

"But...that's not what happened...at all! She was supposed to pick me up and leave!" Kiryu argued weakly.

"Well that's too damn bad for you because we are the ones who got tasked with taking trash like you back to Gosha...also I made promise to Murasaki-Sensei to not beat you into a bloody pulp and take whatever was left into a jar to take back. You better fucking thank Sensei because I really wanted to turn you into a fine bloody paste for the crows to feast on after the shit you pulled." Kaiser threatened as he was not in the mood for Kiryu's complaining.

"Wait... Murasaki made you a promise?" Kiryu asked in disbelief as he knew Kaiser usually disobey Murasaki on principle due to his anti-authoritarian stance.

"Yeah she did...she didn't want a single hair on your head to harm even though if it was up to me, I would of suggested we shove you into a wood chipper and be done with your ass." Kaiser suggested before Kotaro stepped in.

"Also she wanted you to have this..." Kotaro discreetly handed Kiryu the envelope that Murasaki gave him when they first started the mission in case he became problematic.

"UHYAAAAA! THIS IS FOR ME?! AS I THOUGHT! MURASAKI IS DEEPLY IN LOVE WITH ME! GIVING ME THIS TREASURE!" Kiryu shouted as he saw the contents of what was inside the envelope while dancing like a mad man.

Kaiser had a annoyed expression that promised to punch the man in the face if he didn't stop with his incessant ranting.

"Alright! I'll go back even with this Mad Dog as my escort! For Marriage! Maybe she'll get pregnant just from my love! WHAHAHAHAH!" Kiryu shouted as Kaiser and the rest of the team gave Kiryu a look of disgust.

"Disgusting..."

"Gross..."

"Ewww..."

As Kiryu was escorted by Kaiser with the rest of Independent Rangers, Kotaro wanted to stay behind to ask the Madame some questions. Kaiser and the rest of the squad gave him a look before heading out the office trusting in their leader's decision.

"Madame...I was wondering, how did you have those access codes to the U.S.F database?" Kotaro asks as he is curiosity gave him enough bravery to try and push his luck.

"Hehehehe~ well since you worked so hard to get this data I can entertain you for a while longer. Now as for how did I know those access codes... That's. A. Secret." The Madame said in a sing song voice near Kotaro's ear that shivers down the young man's spine.

"Fine... also one more thing...you knew that Murasaki was going to attack the same base as we did. This was all apart of your plan to have us rookie members attack the base first to get you the data before Murasaki-Sensei could get to it first, is that correct ?" Kotaro asked already knowing the answer.

"You are on to me Kotaro-chan...but that is good, at least you aren't a complete idiot...are you unsatisfied." The Madame said in a purr.

"No. It was our inexperience that was to blame. There's no hard feelings." Kotaro said in a flippant nonchalant tone.

"Oh my, what an admirable mindset." The Madame complemented. "Unlike your Mad Dog, you should really keep him on a short leash."

"Kaiser isn't my Mad Dog... he is my friend and trusted ally, also he is just doesn't like being jerked around. Oh one more thing, while in the middle of the mission, a girl by the name of Asuka, jumped in and saved us... she seems particularly fond of Kaiser and it's such a shame that he couldn't thank her personally." Kotaro continued explaining the mission as he a had a conniving smile.

"Really? Hmm... interesting..." The Madame said as she placed a hand on her chin as if she was in deep thought.

"Huh?! Wait! Kai-kun wanted to thank me?!" An excited unseen voice came out from somewhere in the room as without a doubt it was the girl herself who suddenly appeared looking for Kaiser.

The Madame sigh as she place a palm on her forehead as she was hoping on keeping Asuka's involvement a secret.

"So she was working with you." Kotaro inquired as he had a feeling that using Kaiser's name as bait would work in his favor.

The Madame didn't answer Kotaro's question as she underestimated the young Fuma Clan Head. She should've known better than treat this boy with kid gloves afterall he was the brains of his squad and wasn't as emotional as Kaiser making Kotaro a dangerous opponent in a game of wits.

"And judging from the Tech that Asuka was using there is only one country that make such technology. So if you are working for the U.S.F then why would you want us to attack them?" Kotaro asks as he needed to know the reason why him and his squad were put into harm's way.

"You should stop there... unless you want to die?!" The Madame said in a cold tone as the illusion of the frivolous and playful woman disappeared as her expression turned serious as Kotaro was hitting dangerous grounds.

"You didn't answer my question." Kotaro responded as he remained calm.

The Madame then let out a Killer Aura to further silence the foolish young Clan Head.

In a split second the Door burst open as Kaiser kicked down the door with his shotgun and short sword out ready for a fight as glass of the window of the office broke with Murasaki jumping in with her axe out as she swinged it to cut The Madame in half.

"Kai and Murasaki-Sensei!" Kotaro shouted in surprise as his friend and teacher suddenly showed up to defend him.

"Wrath-san called me when Shikanosuke sensed you were about to be killed... just didn't expect Kai-kun to react as well"

"What can I say, Sensei. Ain't nobody gonna die on my watch unless I say so." Kaiser said cooly as looked to where the body of The Madame was supposed to be but instead it the was the sofa that was cut in two.

"I must say Kotaro Fuma, you and your dog are more capable than I should've given you credit for. I'll be taking the data now... Let's meet again soon." The voice of The Madame sounded off as she disappeared into the night.

"See, told ya, we should've smoked that Old Hag when we had the chance." Kotaro said as he holster his shotgun and sword.

"That technique... that masked woman was a Taimanin." Murasaki stated as she raised her axe to holster it on her back.

"Are you okay, Kotaro-kun?" Aishu asked in concern as she quickly looked over Kotaro for any injuries.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Kotaro replied as he pulled away from Hebiko's check-up.

"Was that a Taimanin? Is she allied with us or someone else?" Shikanosuke asked

"She is most likely a Rogue it seems. Anyone you know, Teach?" Kaiser asks Murasaki as the woman nodded her head no. " Well fuck...at least we got the Worm, Kiryu, and got a copy of that data. I think this would constitute as a Mission Success."

Kotaro agreed with Kaiser but he was still trying to piece together all the bits and pieces of information but there was still not enough for him to get a clear picture as to who was with who. More importantly Kotaro decided to keep Asuka's involvement a secret as he didn't understand enough to figure out whether she was ally or foe, also he didn't want to upset Kaiser who was somewhat close to Asuka.

Regardless the Independent Rangers left the brothel and Tokyo Kingdom as they headed back to Gosha Village and the Task Force Headquarters via helicopter.

***In a unknown location somewhere in the Mountains of Japan.***

On the mountain path, a shadow of a man slid through the darkness of night, racing against the sunrise. He soon entered a large estate and stopped in the middle of the courtyard. From the shadows, a number of figures appeared bearing their weapons at the man. However, without having a chance to react, they were cut down by the man.

The Man was no other than... Nisha Gaiza.

Gaiza enter the Compound as the man had a brooding expression that made everyone give him a wide berth. He finally reached his destination as he was outside one of the main bedrooms of the compound.

"How's my mother doing?" Gaiza ask grimly as he was hoping beyond hope that there were some improvements.

"Today's adjustments didn't go so well... it might be better to let her rest." The Nurse responded.

"I see... just give me a little bit of time." Gaiza said as he enter the master bedroom where his mother currently resided in. The Nurse nodded her head as she waited outside by the door incase she was needed.

In the bedroom, a lady lied still on the bed. She looked around 30 or 40 years old. Her expressionless eyes were open, staring at the ceiling as if looking into space.

"Mother..." Gaiza said softly.

The Lady slowly turned her head. Upon seeing Gaiza's face, emotion ran through her as she started speaking.

"Ahhhh! Danjo-Sama! Coming all the way here to see me in this current state..." The lady said in a delirious manner.

"Mother, it's me. Gaiza." Gaiza said as he tried to get through his mother but her mind was so broken that she couldn't recognize him.

"Gaiza! Where is Gaiza! Danjo-sama, Gaiza your father is back!"

Gaiza bit his lip as he tried to restrain his mother who was about to jump out of bed.

"Mother! Danjo-sama is dead! He was killed!" Gaiza yelled trying to get through to his mother.

It was then that Gaiza's mother tone had changed.

"Yes!...Kill him , Gaiza! That unworthy successor! You should've been the next successor. Not Kotaro Fuma! Everyone wishes for that!" Gaiza's mother shouted in a more delirious tone.

Hearing the shouting the nurse rushed in with some medicine and gently comforts Gaiza's mother.

"AHHHH! Medicine! Danjo-Sama..." Gaiza's mother yelled out.

Gaiza was clearly frustrated with the situation as he walks out of the room with his head hung low in defeat. The Nurse quickly rushes out of the room to catch up to him.

"Please take care of mother." Gaiza said solemnly as he leaves the house.

"Yes, of course. Please don't worry, Gaiza-Sama." The Nurse replied.

While it may seem like a hopeless situation, Gaiza wasn't about to give up on his mother just yet. Gaiza hand gripped the Kunai that his hand was holding with a fierce determination as he was prepared to do whatever it took to restore the Fuma Clan's name and Power. He walked out to the road once more...

A/N: And so the plot thickens once more. KAiser and the Crew have a lot on their plate but as always they will overcome it as a team. There will be a short filler in between before the next arc and hopefully you guys will enjoy it as I got big plans going forward...I just hope things don't take a shit again at work (sigh). Anyways if you got girls or other girls from other games from Lilith Soft let me know and I'll Try, KEYWORD Try, to add them in a tasteful way that they make an impact.

Who is the Madame and what is her relationship with Asuka? What is the Secret behind Kaiser's Power? Who is pulling the string behind the scenes? Who are friends and who are Foes?
