I will not forgive you! (steps back) just watch...... (throws his flame at tokiya) I’m gonna kill you! (tokiya watches the flame approach. his hand on ensui tightens.) tokiya : [three flames!] (ensui flashes) [fast!] uh! [I can only block two of them... what should I do......] (he dodges the third one which hits the mirrors behind him. the glass breaks into pieces and slashes tokiya. but they are flying towards yanagi. *good, she dies, the end*) yanagi : ah- (blood. yanagi closes her eyes, waiting.) yanagi : ...... (opens one eye) ......? recca (standing in front her, glass pieces all over him) : so close! yanagi : ! recca : this time I almost went a little too much! yanagi (SD) : re... recca! does it hurt? recca (super deformed) : ha! no problem! how can it hurt! (takes out the glass, blood gushes, yanagi sweatdrop) uh? yanagi : let me help you...... recca : don’t! (veins pop) doesn’t matter what excuses I had, when I said I’d protect you and I didn’t keep my word, I was a turkey! I’m repenting right now, don’t bother with me! yanagi : [recca still is...... so stubborn......] recca : I’ve decided to be you loyal ninja forever! protecting you until death! maybe I’m stubborn! if you feel annoyed just tell me! I’m come back for your answer later! yanagi (happily crying) : ...... eh! tokiya (holding some fire powder) : ah! so you used fire powder with your flame...... [huh!] you can use your brain sometimes too...... I thought you were a complete imbecile! last time when I called you a monkey I was wrong. recca : hey! you finally get it now? tokiya (still cool as ever) : your IQ can be raised a level to a gorilla! (image of a gorilla with bananas) recca (veins, eyes bulging) : wha...-- what did you say! side text : freaked out- recca : anyway, let’s go somewhere else! fighting here would easily endanger princess. tokiya : no objections. yanagi (as they both disappears) : recca! mikagami senpai! why? why must they fight all the time? kage hoshi (suddenly appears behind her) : all because of you...... yanagi : ! kage hoshi : they are both fighting for you from different points of view. the question is which side will you be on. yanagi (surprise) : [kage hoshi......] why are you here? kage hoshi : don’t worry, I won’t hurt you. it’s not necessary anymore...... yanagi : ...... huh? kage hoshi : doesn’t matter if you believe me or not, I have to tell you—everything that I’m doing is not intended to hurt you. it never was...... everything is for recca! (tokiya and recca are fighting. recca breathing heavy. blood dripping.) tokiya : you can’t stand much longer? hanabishi! to get here, you used you body to get the mirrors out of the way, you couldn’t have remained unhurt! even if the wounds are not deep, won’t a massive loss of blood will also result in death? recca (attacking) : you just shut up! (tokiya blocks the attack with ensui) recca : [this guy...... he’s good!] tokiya : I dislike you! but I have to admire your spirit! (recca gets thrown back) recca : hurts! [uh! damn! (mad) my body is in a bad condition, the flame is growing weaker too......] if I continue to bleed like this, it’s gonna be over...... (sees many images of tokiya) what! how did that mikagami turn into so many? tokiya : you idiot! can’t you tell the difference between reality and a reflection? recca : [......! mirrors?] (smile) twice more! tokiya: what? recca : just two more flames, and I can defeat you! revenge for princess’s hair! (recca looks very confident.) kage hoshi : in the near future-recca will be involved in a series of unimaginable events. it’s his inevitable destiny-his enemy of destiny is about to reveal himself! yanagi : enemy? who is it? kage hoshi (sweat) : ...... a mad man...... his identity is a "flame master"! (a picture of a man in shadows, scary looking, his hand is on fire, a much stronger fire than recca’s. a bunch of people behind and around him, they have madougu, note specifically the words "thunder" and "gold" – meaning metal in this case, basically.) kage hoshi : everything that recca has experienced so far will not go to waste! when the true battle begin—then, everyone who was his enemy in the past will become his partners! they hold the same destiny as recca...... no one can escape the fate of a ninja! (pictures of fuuko, domon, mikagami, and recca.) end of volume 2 chapter 6 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [ Email | Lynx | Updates | Sign My Guestbook | View My Guestbook ] Search the Net [1]
