"Are you ok my love?" Shin said as he ran swiftly to his wife's side.
"Don't worry" he said
"You're safe now"
"You and our child are both safe" he said as placed his hand on her stomach.
"I know you're tired from all the hard work" Hannah said.
"Just rest for a while" she added as she placed Shin's head upon her laps.
"By the way..."
"What's with the new look?" She asked with a curious smile
"Oh, this?" Shin replied
"It's just temporary"
"I'll be back to normal in no time"
"The others still aren't back yet?" Shin asked with his eyes getting heavy
"No, not yet" Hannah replied
"Ugh c'mon" Shin whined as he fell asleep.
By the time Shin woke up, it was already evening and everyone had returned.
Kento, Hiro, Xiao, Ryu, and Lana who went beast hunting with their parents had just returned before Shin woke up. On the other hand, Mina, Rosewell, Susan and Landon arrived earlier with very important news.
"They want to sink the island" Landon uttered as soon as Susan announced that she had important news to share.
"They have already started the process" Susan added.
"Also," she said
"Albus is back"
"So what are we doing?" Kojiro asked raising his hand
"Isn't it obvious?" Shin replied
"We are escaping this island"
"But how?" Hiro asked
"Aunt Susan can figure out how" Shin answered
"The rest of you should focus on helping the citizens move safely and make it out alive"
"What about you?" Hannah asked in a worried tone
"You're talking as if you're not coming with us"
"I'm really sorry my love" Shin said with a sad tone
"But my ancestors have called"
"And I now know that I must remain here in order for us to succeed"
"All your lives depend on it"
"The fate of the world depends on it"
Mina heard Shin's words and burst into tears uncontrollably.
"Why?.." she lamented
"Why?"
"Your father did this to me, and now you want to do the same?"
"Is this divine punishment?"
"Is this my punishment for failing as your mother?!!"
"Don't say that" Shin said as he went to hug his mother.
"You've been a great mother all through my life"
"So please don't say that the gods are punishing you"
"I know that I'm being taken away from you, I'll need you to cheer up"
"I won't go without leaving a gift behind, and the gift I offer you is one of great magnitude"
"The gift I offer you is a free world"
"Free from the order"
"Free from their power"
"Free from their control"
"A world where everyone can finally think for themselves"
"A world where you can raise my son, your grandchild"
Mina finally calmed down and let go of Shin after weeping loudly for several minutes.
Then Shin turned back to Hannah and said to her "please look after our child, and also look after my mother"
"Our son will grow up to be a great man"
"He will help those in need and be the strength to the weak"
"He shall be powerful and no enemy will overwhelm him"
"With the blessing of my ancestors, I name our son..."
"...RAIDEN"
As soon as Shin was done blessing his child, everyone suddenly noticed that his hair had gone back to its normal snow-white color.
"It's about to go down"
Meanwhile, in the capital city of Nihon, Albus had gathered all the Prophets from around the world for meeting. It was a meeting to discuss their total dominion over the world after wiping out the city of Yamato.
"Welcome brothers" Albus said out loud, raising a glass of wine to his fellow prophets. The meeting took place in a very large hall with a round table in the middle for the higher ranked prophets. The surrounding chairs were for the others to sit in.
"Today the decision has been made"
"We shall forsake this island and it's inhabitants"
"And after that, our world domination shall be completed"
"But before that, I have prepared a little form of entertainment for you"
"We are going to play a game with simple rules"
"Whoever kills more Yamato citizens than any other, shall be promoted to a seat at the round table"
"The game starts tomorrow so until then, eat, drink, and make merry because by tomorrow, the world will be totally ours"
So the Prophets spent the night celebrating and partying, eat and drinking, wining and dining until they had their fill. Then morning came.
In front of the city gate stood some overzealous prophets who were hungry for a promotion. They argued among themselves about which of them was likely to get the promotion and some other things.
As they continued arguing, one of them noticed a figure walking towards them from the distance.
"Who are you?" They asked but they got no answer. He just kept walking closer to them until they finally recognized who he was and all they could say was "oh sh*t" before they got fried by lightning. From there, Shin began tearing through the enemy lines.
Every one that got in Shin's way was either burnt to ashes by lightning or internally imploded by the thundering sounds he send their way. There was no stopping him, he ran through enemy forces like they were not even there and through buildings like they were made of biscuits. No one could stand his lightning, and no one could face his thunder.
Inside the king's chambers, Hanzo was having a hard time convincing king Endo to get inside the emergency vault that was prepared for him in case of an attack.
"I WILL NOT!!" Endo yelled at the top of his voice
"My people are dying there's no way I'll just sit back and watch"
"I've been doing that for too long and look where we are"
"I'm powerful enough to fight so why don't you just let me go out there?" He asked
"Because our enemy is a much more powerful one" Hanzo replied
"Even I am afraid of facing them"
"I'M NOT A COWARD!!" Endo screamed
"If I die then so be it"
"It's what I deserve for being such an incompetent ruler"
At this point, Hanzo understood that words were not going to work on his king. Before Endo could say another word, he immediately rendered him unconscious with a precise strike to the neck.
"Your safety is my sole duty" Hanzo said as he carried Endo into the emergency vault and locked him inside. Then he pushed a button on the wall and another door with resemblance to the walls of the chamber closed on the vault and concealed its location. And then Hanzo walked out to face the incoming threat.
"What is the situation?" he asked one of the soldiers but they didn't answer him.
"What is the situation?" he asked another but still got no answer, they just kept running past him as if he was nobody.
He finally got tired of asking and decided to go see for himself but before could walk through the next door, his location suddenly got switched and he found himself in a room he almost didn't recognize.
"Endo, you bastard" he said calmly as he sat on one of the chairs in the room. He was inside the king's emergency vault and he knew exactly how he got there.
Hanzo once got the researchers to make a single use relocation device that swaps the location of two people. He offered it to the king who kept refusing and claiming that he was never going to need it, and now it finally got used but instead of taking the king out of harm's way, it let him run straight to it.
The first thing Endo did after the switch was to climb the highest tower in the palace to see what was going on. What he saw was brutal. In a matter of seconds he saw lightning strikes everywhere and the entire city was dead.
"This is unforgivable!" he said as ran down the stairs of the tower.
Meanwhile, Shin had finally made it to the conference room where all the prophets where gathered and waiting for him.
They attacked first with multiple strikes and he immediately activated his 'raiken' and began destroying every single one of them.
"You saved me the stress of having to hunt you all you down" he said as he continued slaying his enemies
" YOU HEARTLESS MONSTERS!!"
"Have you no remorse for what you did"
"And entire nation of people"
"You just deprived them of thier souls"
"WHY?!!!"
"JUST TELL ME WHY!!"
There was no major fight in this battle, there was no final boss. Even the most powerful of the Prophets were among the first to be ended by Shin and the rest just followed.
By the time the battle ended, Shin was exhausted and barely able to stand. Then Endo walked in.
With almost no strength in him, Shin pointed his hand towards Endo and shot the last of his thundering essence.
Luckily for Shin, he had met the reqired conditions for the postponement spell. He fell flat on the floor with a smile on his face. He wasn't happy because he was able to survive the battle; the island was sinking and he was still going to die anyways, he was happy because he was able to save one person even though it was going to take a thousand years to wake him up.
Shin could hear the waters rising, the waves making their way into the shores of the island and slowly advancing into the into the cities.
"I'm sure they made it out safely" he said with as he closed his eyes and waited for the waters to creep up on him.

When the ice queen laughs
"well, Mr Addison" Ellie said as the camera faced Orie. "What are your thoughts on the current state of the match?" "I'm really not sure" Orie replied "To be honest, this is the first time I've seen Her like that so I don't actually know what to expect" "But if I had to take a guess..." "... I'd say I'm glad she wasn't like this in our match" Natsumi missed her first strike, and her second, and her third, and her fourth, and... all her strikes, she missed all of it. As it turns out, Kurobe had quite the reflex and was really good at evasion and keeping the distance. Every time Natsumi got close, he quickly evaded and put distance between them, pushing her back, attacking from blind spots, setting walls between them and a Whole lot of moves that prevented him from getting hit but that didn't stop his opponent from trying. With each passing second, Natsumi got closer to landing a hit on Kurobe. At first it was him feeling the little breeze as her fist fle
Cold hard truth
Many things can anger a fighter. An opponent that toys with them, someone that just won't stay down and in many cases, a direct insult. But none of those things were happening to Kurobe, he was facing something far more annoying; an opponent that isn't paying attention to him. At first glance, it looked like Kurobe was dominating the match without giving his opponent any chance to counter, but there were many times since the beginning of the fight where Natsumi would have been able to strike back but did nothing instead. She had barely moved from where she was standing at the start and she was in deep thought. All Natsumi did from the beginning of the match was to fend off the incoming attacks while thinking about what Orie had said to her. "I have finally seen your true self" "I finally know you" She couldn't muster up the courage to ask him what he meant because she was too afraid of his answer. She was afraid of the truth. "If the real me is a monster...

Tears of a beautiful summer
Orie was finally on the offensive. His wind blasts weren't doing much damage but they were strong enough to throw his opponent off balance and disorganize her attacks. He was able to close the distance bit by bit with each successful blast and every one of them hit. Before Natsumi could tell what was going on, Orie was standing directly under her. "White" orie said with a smile as he looked at her from below, then he spun his staff and struck the floor with it. Natsumi immediately turned to guard against it but no wind came from Orie's direction, it came from above and pushed her down. As Natsumi struggled to stand up, Orie began walking towards her and spoke. "I wondered why my prayers weren't working on you" "It would stop you for a brief moment then she'd take care of the rest by will power" "After this encounter, I think I finally figured it out" "The reason why my prayers don't work and who you are" "You are Natsumi" "You are not a spirit tha

"I was wondering why you didn't come to see me all this time" Orie said to Natsumi but got no reply.
