"Normal Talking"
"Thoughts"
Disclaimer: I don't own anything Beelzebub related or anything Tamura Ryūhei will make in the near future. Review and Enjoy!
Oga stood victorious over Fuji, his smoldering body laid there as still and quiet as a mountain. Oga isn't in very good condition either, his body is a bloody and broken mess, he could barely see straight, his knees are shaking from the effort of just standing in place.
"Tough bastard..." Oga spat out, the asshole wouldn't go down no matter how much he put him down, he felt his vision darken again and he almost fell to his knees. Super Sayian Switch took quite a tole on his body, a second longer and he would have passed out. If his friends and new comrades didn't chip in when they did... who knows what woulda happened...
"Dabu...?" He looked over his shoulder and he smiled, Beel is a bit dirty and scuffed up, but he's fine, he began to remember when he first met him, the naked brat sure has grown in the small amount of time he's been with him. He rubbed his green-hair.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm alright Beel, you think your dad would lose to someone like him?" Oga patted his chest proudly and recoiled from the pain. "Ouch..."
Beel only gave a big smile. "Dah!"
Oga gained a tick-mark. "What do you mean, yes?!" He grabbed Baby Beel and started to give him a harsh noogie. Oga felt a cool blade rest against his neck.
"Stop doing that to the Young Master, Oga..." She said coldly, though he didn't hear any anger in her words, it sounded... neutral, like she's already used to his antics. He turned and sees the familiar face of Hilda. He would never, ever admit it, but she really isn't an ugly, soul-sucking demon, she's... actually a really nice person.
"What are you so worked up about, woman?! It's not like Beel can't handle something like this, he's a man! Right, Beel!... Beel?" He looks down and Beel is shaking, he has tears in his eyes and he's trying so very hard to not cry, but...
"...Shit..."
"WAAAAHHHH!" He is struck down by the gigantic lightning bolt, usually he would be able to tank one of these hits, because he's awesome like that, but the damage he already sustained caused his vision to blacken out for a bit. When he came to, he's laying down in the rubble and Hilda is holding Baby Beel, looking down on him.
"Well, the dirt-bag finally woke up, you pass out from one of Master's cries? I can see you're still being such a useless father..." Hilda said, he could see a small smirk on her face.
"Shut up, She-Demon!" Oga hissed. He tried to give her the finger, but he couldn't move.
"What's that? I can't hear you from up here." He growled, he began to mumble out words, some sounding worse than others. He said something quietly, Hilda could clearly hear what he said due to her enhanced hearing, but she wanted to have a bit of fun.
"Say again...?" He began to glare at her, anyone else would have shit themselves, it only made it more amusing.
"C-Can you help me up...?" He mumbled, she could see he's blushing a bit in embarassment.
"Heh, weakling..." She brought her hand down and Oga slowly grabbed her hand, with a grunt he was pulled up, and his arm is draped over her shoulder. "Be happy you're allowed to get this much contact."
"Like anyone would want to touch you!... Actually Creep-ichi definitely would..." He said in an afterthought.
"...Don't remind me of that pervert, idiot..."
"Hey! Oga! Hilda!" Speaking of his pervert friend, they turned around to see everyone running toward them, they're still a good distance away though. He feels a tremendous weight lift off him, no one is injured, they were safe...
"Let's go..." He said, Hilda looks to him and nods slightly, they begin to move. Hilda suddenly tenses and turns around.
"Ah! Dah!" Beel yells, he started flailing around, tugging at Oga's jacket. He's going crazy for some reason.
"Beel...? What's wr-" Then it happened. A crushing force suddenly hit him, he nearly fell to the ground... this feeling... it can't be...!
"Oga... Run. Now." Hilda said, her voice is shaking with fear.
"My, my, I'm surprised, you certainly were amusing... for a human that is." A voice said. Sweat rolled down Oga's face, he slowly turned around, his eyes widened in shock.
"I-It can't be! I defeated you! How the fuck are you still here!" The pain in Oga's body soon became unimportant, he felt energy fuel his tired limbs. If he let him get anywhere near his friends...
"Heh, you "Defeated me?" Pitiful human, always saying idiotic things... you know? That face suits you." He moved with the tremendous speed He possessed, He appears infront of Oga and Hilda in an instant. "That fear... it looks nice..." He said.
Oga and Hilda jumped back. "Hilda, get out of here! Warn the others!" Oga yelled to her. She looked utterly confused with what he said.
"What?! Are you crazy?! I can't leave the Master's side, I must protect him, no matter what!" He growled in frustration, he grabbed her arms and made her face him.
"You idiot! Who do you think is already protecting him? It's the father's duty to protect his family, so go, now!" He shoves her, she stumbles forward. Hilda wouldn't move for a bit, she's having an internal battle, should she stay or go?... she finally decides.
"You, damn fool..." She immediately turned around and her Demonic Magic begins to pool around her, she shoots off toward the other's. He heard her whisper some words.
"Stay safe..."
He silently looks at the empty space left by Hilda, then slowly looked back to the menacing figure infront of him.
"Hmm? She's running? It doesn't matter, you'll all die anyway..." Oga's Contract Seal began to glow a fierce red, he felt Beel's demonic energy channel through his broken body.
"How the hell are you alive..." The powerful seal began to travel across his body, creating a unique design, his power continued growing with each passing second.
"...Satan!" He's completly uninjured, the only thing that is different is his scuffed up clothes. He has slicked-back hair, and large black eyes, the only unusual feature is the thin line on his forehead. He wears a long black trench coat, with a neck high collar, under that he's wearing a white shirt and black pants. He would look relatively normal if it wasn't for that unnerving stare of his. He has an amused smile on his face.
"You think that I would die from something as pathetic as that? I am surprised though, that this guy..." He nudged Fuji with his foot. "...was able to even manage 1/4 of my power... humans can be more of a surprise, everytime I use them..." He mused.
The world around Oga froze, everything started moving in slow-motion, he felt as if all the blood in his body froze. "1/4...? What we went up against, it wasn't even half...?" Oga carefully brought out his flask, he grimaced. "Shit... only about 50cc's of milk left, what the fuck can I do with that...?"
Satan continued to look at him with his oppressive eyes. He continued to talk, as if he understood the look on Oga's face. "Yes, only about 1/4 of my power, maybe a bit less was available. Those insects at the Solomon Company attempted to harvest my power, they failed of course, but it did manage to do quite some annoying things..." His eyes suddenly became feral, Oga felt the killing intent hit him like a tsunami, he almost fell to his knees. He felt like throwing up. Beel wasn't doing any better, Oga could feel him quivering on his back, he shakily brough a hand up and patted him, trying to reassure him.
"I could have waited you know? I could have hid myself away and gained my lost power, but I was so excited to fight Beelzebub again, that I couldn't control myself and came here." Oga slowly slid his feet back, trying to put some distance between them.
"But you know what...?" He disappeared in a streak of black and immediately appeared infront of Oga.
"Tch!" He tries to bring the flask up, but a strong hand stops his movement, his left hand is crushed with the flask, a strange mix of red and white liquid began to pool on the ground. Before he can scream in pain, he's jerked forward and another fist slams into his chest, blood spewed out his mouth, he's pretty sure his ribs exploded on impact. The air shook and the ground shattered from that punch. He's easily lifted off his feet.
If his hand wasn't being held in a vice-grip right now, he would have been sent, who-knows-how high, in the air. Satan slowly leans his face forward and brings his mouth to Oga's ear. "...I was extremely disappointed..." He threw Oga to the ground and he bounced a couple of times before he stopped, he's in too much pain to move.
"I thought that I could have an amazing fight, just like I did with his father, but to my dismay, the child doesn't even hold a candle light to him..." He slowly walked to the fallen Spell Master.
"Dada! Dada!" Beel is shaking Oga with all his strength, he's laying there, his eyes are unfocused and blood continues to flow out of his mouth. A large shadow appears above Beel and he slowly looks up.
"I guess it's time I finish this..." Satan brings out his hand, and it slowly begins to descend, he started to smile, a blood-thirsty smile. Beel closed his eyes, waiting for the worst.
"What the hell do you think you're doing, you bitch...?" Oga grabbed Satan's outstretched arm, his Contract Seal flickered, it slowly dimmed with each passing second. Blood rolled down Oga's face, but he continued to give a fierce glare at the former king. Satan notices how much Oga is trembling, he's going to die if he tries anything else.
"Ho...? You still live...? Humans are quite resilient, it seems." He jerks his arm out and punches Oga to the ground. A sickening crack is heard and he doesn't move.
"Second Ceremony: 100 Flower Storming Sakura!" Sakura pedals began to dance around the area, Satan also noticed tendrils of demonic origin mixed with the pedals. Soon enough, pink and black energy slashes are sent toward him. He smirks darkly, they all strike against his form and immediately shatter on impact. Kunieda lands a small distance away, her wooden sword falls apart. Hilda lands not much farther.
"Hmm...? Was that supposed to do something...?" He looks down and a fist suddenly enters his vision, he's struck across the face and sent flying across the land. He slides across the ground, completely unfazed by that punch. He had a thoughtful expression on his face. "What a stubborn human..."
"You fucking bastard...!" Oga growled, he put the last of his energy in that punch. He's blinded in one eye, his head is throbbing painfully, something is broken in his body, that punch really fucked him up.
"Oga!" Kunieda Aoi started to run at him, he saw Satan begin to smile again. "Stay away!" It's too late, Satan's already behind her, his fingers are pointed forward, he wants to skewer her.
Another powerful fist slams into Satan, he's sent flying and slams into the broken school making the already fragile building collapse onto him.
The familar rust colored hair and unruly sideburns enter his view, his usually scowling face is replaced by a predatory grin. "Heh, you wanted us to run, Oga? When would I ever run from a good fight?" Hidetora Tōjō said. Soon enough every one of his friends began to appear next to him. King's Crest Number 4 glowing on his upper arm.
"Dumbass... I thought we were supposed to stick together?" He looked to his left and he saw Hajime Kanzaki, with his dull blond hair and odd chain connected to his lower lip and then to his left ear. King's Crest Number 1 glowing on his back.
"You still trying to do your own shit, Oga?" He looked to his right and he sees Tatsuya Himekawa, his familar silver hair and ridiculous hairstyle shining in the sun. King's Crest Number 3 glowed on his forearm.
"Don't try to push us away, Oga. We are in this together, dummy..." Kunieda said. Her King's Crest Number 2 glowed on her chest.
"We are here with you no matter what happens, you idiot..." He felt a hand clamp on his shoulder he looks back and his idiot friend Takayuki Furuichi is smiling at him.
"Hmph, fool... these humans have pledged there undying loyalty to you, the least you can do is lead them." Hilda said. He noticed the entire Behemoth's 34 Pillar Division and everyone else he knew were behind him, every single King's Crest shined on their person. He felt someone poke him in the face and he looked down.
"Da!" Beel said, Oga looks at them in surprise, he slowly smiles.
"Yeah... thanks you guys..." He notices the rubble begin to shift. "Let's defeat this bastard!" A chorus of "Yeah!" was heard all across the area. The debris explodes outward, Satan calmly walked out, dusting the soot off his coat.
"You humans and your friendship, that was a touching scene, but..." The demonic aura began to swirl around him. "...it makes me sick..."
"Get ready!" Oga yelled, everyone shifted their stances, ready to fight their strongest enemy. Oga charges forward, his Zebul Emblem began to build up power. "Zebul Blast!" He launched his arm forward, a massive wave of demonic energy rockets toward Satan, he gives a rather bored look. "I thought..." He simply raised his hand and flicked the energy blast, sending it far across the land. "...I told you it wouldn't work...?" Satan begins to slowly walk ready to kill them all, until he suddenly stopped, the suffocating aura dissapeared as well.
"You know...? I actually have a better idea!" Satan dissapeared from his spot, no one could find him.
"Ah! Dah!" Beel points upward and everyone looks, Oga sees a tiny speck in the sky. "What the hell's he planning...?"
Satan continued to float in the air his hand is on his chin, a thoughtful expression on his face. "Hmm... what to do..." He began thinking of his many abilities, until one stuck. "Oh! That will do nicely!" He raised his arm, immeasurable amounts of demonic energy begin to collect in his hand. "As a treat for being so amusing, I'll show you the real finisher!" The ball of energy began to grow, and grow until it became so massive it blocked out the sun. Satan felt someone approaching, but it is still too far to even pose a threat, he began to smile, his heart began to pump faster. This presense...
"Heh! You're too late, Beelzebub! Perhaps you will make it in time to see your son die!" He looked down, their faces frozen in fear only made this sweeter.
"Burn to ashes..." He brought his arm down, and all hell broke loose.
Oga's eyes widened in horror. No one could block that, his Zebul Finisher will take too long to charge, it wouldn't matter anyway. He knows it, everyone knows it.
They were going to die.
Like hell he would let it! Oga brought his right hand forward, the Contract Seal began to glow again. "Beel! Do it!"
"Dah!" Beel released his maximum energy output, it began to flow through Oga, fueling his body with power. The electric aura manifested itself around Oga.
He coughed out a great deal of blood, Super Sayian Switch is too much right now, he will die if he goes any further. "You fool! There isn't anything you can do! Take Young Master and get out of here!" Hilda yelled.
"I... I have to try!" He points his arm upward he felt the conflicting energies in his body begin to combine, his body is breaking down, the demonic energy is too much. He pushed past the pain. "Zebul..." A massive Zebul Emblem appeared in the sky, easily larger than the school. Then another, then another over that, until 5 of them were suspended in the sky.
He spat out more blood. "...Shield!" This was a concept that he was thinking about before, but he could never attempt to use it until now, it's supposed to be able to absorb the energy from whoever was on the other side of the emblem, then it would explode toward whichever side the damage came from. He guessed that this would be the opposite of his other ability, where he would put the Zebul Emblem on the enemy and he would usually be the one dealing damage and it would build up until it exploded.
The demonic blast began to fall toward the earth, straight to Oga and his friends. The black beam slammed into the multi-layered shield, the Zebul Emblem began to warp and bend, the black energy began to bleed around the Emblem and cracks formed, but the shield is holding against Satan's powerful attack.
For about 15 seconds.
The 5 layers were immediatly shattered, it was too much power for it to absorb. The black mass continued on its way, Beel's demonic energy left his body. That's it, there was nothing he could do.
"DAMMMMIIIITTTT!" Oga screamed, he slammed his fists into the ground. They were going to die and all he could do was slow it down a bit? "Guys we need to get out of here!" He tries to turn to them but he suddenly felt someone grab him, with a grunt he was tossed as hard as the person could throw, he flew through the air.
"Ah!" He feels Beel quickly nestled himself in his arms, he looks down and his heart sinks. His friends were giving him an understanding smile, they knew he tried his best and they wanted to show their gratitude, their faces said one thing... and one thing only.
"Live, Oga..."
He tried so very hard to get back, but he had no strength left in his body, he raised his arm trying to reach out and grab them, to try and protect them. "YOU FUCKING IDIOT'S!" Oga slammed into one of the broken building and it collapses on him, he's knocked out.
The gigantic beam finally slams into the earth and a dome of pure energy surrounds the city.
Miles away from the city, a lone figure is flying high in the air, he uses the Zebul Emblem to boost his speed, each explosion propelling him faster and faster.
"This wasn't part of the plan, I've made a terrible mistake... just how powerful have you become, Satan...?" Suddenly a gigantic black dome explodes far away, he's forced to shield his eyes. He grits his teeth. "Please... be safe, my son!" He continues on his way, fearing for the worst.
Oga slowly wakes up, and he's greeted with tremendous pain, he's fading in and out of consciousness, he tries to get up, but he immediately falls, the pain increased even more. He slowly looked down and a jagged pipe is sticking out of his gut.
"Damn it..." He attempts to grab it, but he feels horrible pain shoot through his body. With a growl he grabbed it again and pulled as hard as he could. "FUUUCCCKKK!" He managed to rip it out, blood began to flow out of the wound, it felt like his insides were torn to shreds. He needed to treat it soo-
"Wait! What am I thinking? I need to find everyone!" He pushed himself up with the little strength he had left, if it wasn't for his will to live, he would have died right here. Luckily he found Baby Beel, miraculously uninjured on some rubble. A bitter-sweet smile appeared on his face. "Thank god..." He gently picked him up and began to limp around, trying to find anyone he could.
Everything looked like hell, fire and broken buildings are the only thing he could see. "Hey! Everyone! Can you hear me?!" He continued to walk, the silence only made his fear continued to grow. "Hey! Answer me! Every-" He felt as if his heart shattered from the sight before him.
"-one...?" They were all sprawled across the area, they weren't moving. His body shook with fear. "E-Everyone..." They didn't answer. "N-No... please..." They are laying motionless, large pools of blood are surrounding each of them, their eyes are lifeless. Furuichi, Kurienda, Miki, Tōjō, Hajime, Tatsuya, Natsume, Shiroyama, Nene, Chiaki, Yuka, Ryōko, Kazuya, everyone he once knew...
Were dead.
He felt like the world came crashing down, why? Why goddammit! Why must this happen...? Just as he was about to finally give up, he hears ragged coughing under some rubble, he quickly limps to the quickly dying sound. Using his dwindling strength he manages to move the fallen wall. He feels his heart skip a beat. It's Hilda but... she's in the same condition as everyone else... he didn't want to think about that now.
He quickly pulled her up and he shook her gently. "Hilda! Hilda! Please wake up!" Her eyes fluttered open, they're unfocused and he could see a great deal of pain in her eyes.
"F-Fool..." She whispered, he tried to put pressure on the large wound on her stomach, but it was no use. Her face is deathly pale, her breathing is becoming slower by the second.
"Stay with me, Hilda! You're stronger than this! You can't do this, Beel needs you!" He grabbed her hand and gave it a squeeze, tears cascaded down his cheeks, he couldn't stop them from flowing.
"I... I need you! Please... don't do this..." Her glassy eyes focused slightly and her hand slowly squeezes his own.
"I-Idiot... saying... things... like... that..." She coughed up blood, she's barely holding on. "I-I'm... sorry... but... I... have... to... go... now..." He felt his blood run cold.
"No, No, NO! Don't say that!" Tears begin to flow down her own face, she looks at Baby Beel's sleeping form and slowly back to him, she manages to say a few more words.
"Thank... you, Tatsumi... i-it... was... fu...n..." His eyes widen and he's forced to watch as her hand slacks and dropped to the ground. "I-I... l...o..." She whispered, the last if her strength leaves her and she can't finish what she's about to say, the last tear falls from her face... and she stills.
She dies with a content smile on her face.
"Hilda! No...! Hilda! HILDA!" The tears fell even more, Oga grabbed her lifeless body and hugged it close. He let out a sorrow-filled scream. That was it... he has no one left, his friends, his family, everyone he knew is gone. He felt a presence behind him.
"Oga-dono..." The once cheerful and energetic voice is lackluster... a shell of it's former self.
"Alaindelon..." The Trans-dimensional Demon somehow survived the devastation. "Could you... get them out of here...?"
His chest splits in half and opened up, the swirling portal within his body hummed with life. "Of course, Oga-dono..." With mechanical and jerky movement, Oga gently lifted Hilda's body and placed her inside Alaindelon, he then grabbed Baby Beel and put him there as well. He saw him squirm slightly, a sad expression appears on his face. "Dada..." Beel mumbled. Oga paused slightly and patted Beel's head one last time.
"You're not going...?" He thought about it for a moment, but unbridled rage suddenly fueled his body. He immediately got up and a dark aura suddenly began to encase his body. Alaindelon began to sweat, the waves of anger pulsing off Oga became a frightening sight.
"No... please, just get out of here... I need to deal with that bastard, before I can even think of leaving!" Alaindelon silently nods and closes up his body, he runs away as fast as he can. The other deadly presence makes himself known.
"You still live? Quite amazing! Maybe I should have used more power...?"
"Shut up..." Oga whispered, his body shook with barely controlled rage.
"What was that...?" Satan said, he put his hand to his ear. "I didn't quite hear that..."
"I SAID SHUT THE FUCK UP!" Oga charged forward and reared his fist back, he brought his fist forward and met with Satan's own outstretched fist. A large shockwave shook the area, the trees are ripped out of their roots, the broken buildings crumble to the ground and are soon blown away.
"You still have this much power...?" Satan said, he's quite surprised. He actually felt that punch, this only made things much, much more interesting.
"I'LL KILL YOU!" Oga brought his leg forward and kicked with all his strength, he managed to send Satan sliding on his feet, he continued to smile.
Oga immediately ran forward and appeared next to him, he slammed him to the ground and continued to repeatedly punch him, each rage-filled punch cracking the earth. Something snapped within Oga, his fists continued to hit him even harder.
"I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!" Satan's Demonic Powered fist suddenly shot out of the ground and hit Oga, he slams into one of the many broken buildings. Satan slowly pushed himself out of the indent and he dusted off his coat.
"Hmm?" He felt blood drip out of his nose. He went silent for a moment. "...Heh, heh, heh, ha, ha, Ha! Yes! This is exactly what I'm looking for! I hope you don't dissapoint me, human!" He stood there waiting for the human, if the human did die... then he would be a bit dissatisfied with the short ending. Oh well, If it happens then it happens. He didn't really care, he would fight with Beelzebub soon anyway. He waited for a moment and nothing changed, with a shrug he turned around and slowly walked away. He didn't notice the exposed hand twitch in the rubble.
Oga floated in a black void, his eyes are dull and lifeless, he didn't want to live anymore. He wanted to die and join his friends and family. "Hilda..." The tears began to flow down his face again. "Why am I so weak?!" He screamed into the blackened area. His hands went up to his face, the tears leaked through his hands and rolled down his arms. "Why can't I protect anyone...?" He looked back to his shaking hands. "If only I was stronger! If only I didn't waste so much time! I... I need-"
"Power...?" A voice said with a hint of distortion, Oga quickly spun around he looked up and became fully aware of the glowing red eyes staring at him in the void. The area warped slightly and he notices he's somehow standing on solid ground again.
"Who the hell are you?!" The voice chuckled darkly for a bit, it went silent for a moment.
"It doesn't matter who or what I am, you said you wanted more power, and I can provide it to you... all you need to do is accept it." A black tendril slowly oozed out of the darkness it hovered in-front of him and waited.
Oga immediately knew that doing something like this is stupid, he's seen way to many animes where making a deal with something or someone always goes horribly wrong for the hero.
"Of course I refuse, asshole!" Jagged teeth materialize and slowly stretched into a grin.
"Are you really sure...? Not even to avenge that woman...?" Oga tensed, he glared at the glowing eyes.
"Don't you fucking talk about her...!" The voice continued, ignoring Oga's growing rage.
"You couldn't protect your family, you couldn't protect your friends and you especially couldn't protect that woman! I am giving you a chance to take revenge! To kill the man who took everything from you, and yet... you continue to refuse?"
And just like that, his rage disappeared. "I..." His arm twitched upward slightly. "Am I really feeling doubt?" Everything was screaming at him to refuse, but... could he really gain that things power to kill him? He slowly looked up and gave it a glare, but he soon looks down to his arm and again looks back at the smiling face.
Oga hesitantly lifted his arm and the tendril wrapped around his hand, the voice laughed a bit.
"Good choice human..." Oga's suddenly pulled forward, he immediately knew this was a mistake. He plants his feet and pulled back. He succeeded in halting his movements for a moment, but many other black tendrils shot out of the darkness and encased Oga's form. He's lifted into the air and dragged into the darkness. "D-Damn it...!"
Oga felt horrendous pain, it felt like he's being burned, electrocuted and ripped apart, all the while repeated a thousand times. His screams of pain echoed across the darkened area. It was cut short however, when he lost consciousness, his limp body finally assimilating with the dark figure. Oga's barely open eyes can only see inky-blackness surround his vision, the last thing he heard was the echoing laughter of the unknown voice and everything went black.
Everything went to hell after that.
The fallen building suddenly explodes. Oga's hunched over, his arms are dangling in-front of him. Satan feels a familiar energy pool out of the rubble. Oga inhales and an inhuman roar escapes his lips, it causes the area to rumble and he feels a sudden pressure crush onto him.
"GRROOOAAAHHH!" Oga's appearance drastically began to change, his skin slowly darkened to the point of being pitch black. Black-plated armor quickly grew and shifted to cover him like a layer of crude knight armor, the Zebul Emblem traveled across his armored body, creating arcane tribal symbols that began to glow a crimson red. Draconic wings sprouted out of his back, a simple movement caused the surrounding buildings to collapse and the rubble to blow away. His black hair spiked up and four large horns began to grow out his head, his face became shadowed, the only thing you could see are his glowing red-eyes and jagged grinning teeth. (Kinda like the Rogue Titan's mouth from Shingeki No Kyojin, without the extra set of teeth in the back, or like Ichigo's Hollow Mask.) Until finally, a third bloodshot eye slowly opened up on his forehead. His power boosted so much that it cloaked the entire area. Each step he took sunk into the ground like sand.
Satan's amused smirk disappeared, he let his full power release. His teeth elongated and his own third eye opened. "Perhaps I have been too easy-going, who would have though a human could manage to do that..." He raised his arms, demonic energy encase his hands. "Oga" disappeared, almost too fast for Satan to react. "Oga" ran at Satan on all fours. With a growl like a mad beast he jumps forward, his clawed hands were raised and ready to rip him to shreds.
Satan charges forward, meeting "Oga's" attack blow-for-blow, fist-hits-fist, knee-hits-knee, leg-hits-leg. The recurring strikes caused shock waves to reverberate in the air, they could be heard all across the world. Both Demon's charged concentrated amounts of Demonic Energy, "Oga's" mouth curled up into a cruel smile, his jagged teeth gleaming in the darkened area. With a roar he shot it forward.
"Don't get cocky, Human!" Satan yelled. He released his own blast and the destructive forces slammed into each other, one trying to overpower the other. It's as if day turned to night, the overwhelming amount of energy cloaked the sky. Suddenly, one side slowly began to push the other.
"Damn human...!" Satan's arms are struggling to hold "Oga's" Demonic Energy, his own power is slowly being pushed back. His feet sink into the ground but they still move back, creating long scars in the ground. "How?! How am I being pushed back by a mere human?!" With a mighty yell, Satan managed to push his energy blast with enough strength to redirect them upward. He barely had enough time to react as "Oga" flashes to his unprotected back and brings his leg forward. Satan spun around and had enough time to put his arms up and block his kick. He's sent tumbling to the ground. He can barely feel his arms, from one solid kick he was nearly killed...
His blood began to boil, this human... is too dangerous now. He brought his hands together and once again collected his energy. He waited for the pseudo-demon to get close enough and he shot it forward, it's enough power to destroy a mountain with ease. But to his surprise, "Oga" stood there, not even moving an inch. What came next though... it caused him to feel... fear? This is a concept he's not familiar with.
"Oga" slowly began to absorb the massive amount of energy, his already insane amount of power growing to immeasurable levels. The demonic power started to collect on his forehead. the ball of energy looked different, it had a red outline over the black sphere. His instincts were screaming at him to move.
A large indent was suddenly created and he sunk into the ground, the amount of power he had collected makes Satan's look like a burnt-out flame. His glowing eyes slowly look to Satan, he stomped his foot down and it cracked the landscape, with a roar he let it loose and the sheer size of the destructive beam decimated anything in it's path. It caused Satan to be rooted to the ground, in both amazement and fear and he felt a shiver go down his spine.
He would regret waiting those few seconds.
Satan moved as fast as he could, but he got consumed in the blast radius, he jumped out, succeeding in avoiding the worst of the blast. But he couldn't get away unscathed. He landed a good distance away, blood dripped to the ground, his body has massive wounds peppering his body. "D-Damn, insect..." He noticed the newly created demon immediately fly into the air, he then flies straight down like a meteor, he moved even faster, too fast for Satan to react and "Oga" grabs his face, he lifts him into the air and then slams him to the ground, dragging him and slamming him into anything possible.
Satan quickly whipped out his leg and slammed it into "Oga's" face... it only caused his head to tilt ever so slightly. "Oga's" jagged teeth curled up into a twisted smile. In one second, he obliterated his leg, crushing in his hand, bit by bit. In another second, his arm disappeared into a bloody mess, he ripped it out of the socket.
"DAMN, HUMAN! I WON'T BE BEATEN LIKE THIS!" Satan compresses the demonic energy into his remaining arm and he released it point-blank at "Oga". All he manages to do is piss him off. With a growl of annoyance "Oga" brought his arm forward and pierced Satan's chest and ripped out his still-beating heart. With a smile he crushes it and blood splattered everywhere. He throws Satan into the air and brought his leg up, when he was in range he brought it down and heel kicked him in the chest, Satan's shocked expression still etched on his face while he rocketed to the ground, a large crater is created. "Oga" begins to charge up his demonic energy, if he released that now, he could blow up the world, he would create hell on earth.
If he actually tried, he could destroy the earth itself.
Before he could do so, a hand suddenly landed on "Oga's" shoulder. "Hey, brat..." The demon turned his head and came face to face with Zenjūrō Saotome, his glare would send chills up anyone's spine. A pained expression escaped his stone-cold face.
"I thought I taught you better!" His Contract Seal began to glow, the strange tattoo began to travel up his arm. He brought his fist back. "Spell Master's..." A large Zebul Emblem materialized in-front of Saotome, he began to charge it with power. He punched "Oga" in the face. "...Blast!" It immediately exploded, a large magic blast encased his blanketed the area, once the smoke cleared, unsurprisingly the demon is completely unharmed, he only coughed a bit from the smoke.
"Tch...!" Saotome quickly jumped back, landing on one of the many Zebul Emblem's he's created. "Come at me, brat!" The demon gave a blood-thirsty grin and boosted forward, the wings on his back propelling him faster. "You better hurry, Beelzebub. I don't know how long I can hold on..." He looked back to the flying demon. "Oga... just what the hell did you do to yourself...?" He raised his arm and numerous Zebul Emblems began to materialize. Ready to be used at a moments notice, he also boosted forward and the battle between Master and Student has begun.
A lone figure slowly walked into the broken city, his overly large horns reflected off the sun. He slowly looked around and his eyebrow's rose a bit under his visored helmet. Bodies filled the streets, dead or dying he really didn't care. All he cared about was the fate of his son. If he lived or... he didn't want to think about that.
His casual walk finally got him to his destination, he could see and hear massive explosion on the other side of the city, but for now he looked down into the crater and noticed a familiar face. He jumped down and immediately tripped, he began to roll down the steep hill and then face-planted to the ground. "Ow... I knew I missed that step!" He looked to his left and noticed the empty eyes of his old enemy.
"Yo! It's been way too long hasn't it, Satan?" He said cheerfully, he got up and dusted off his cloak.
"Beelzebub..." Satan said, behind the ragged breathing his voice sounded... annoyed, like he really didn't want to hear that familiar voice. He coughed up blood, he already has both his feet in the grave. He's used up way too much of his power... if given the chance he would have really liked to fight his old rival. "Why are you still here...?"
"First of all, you will address me as The Great and Powerful Demon Lord! Get that through your thick skull! And to answer your second question... I got bored and wanted to visit the Human World for once..." He said finally.
"You still suck at... lying... Beelzebub..." The last of his energy was leaving his body. He pushed on, trying to last just a little longer. "If... you must know, your son is alive... he left in that Trans-dimensional Demon... a while back... but, that wet nurse he was with did not survive..." The Demon Lord's mood immediately shifted, the cheerfulness he had completely disappeared.
"Hilda's dead, huh...?" Without another word he turned around began to float up. Slowly ascending toward the direction of the massive battle.
"I-I... would... hurry... Beelzebub... even... you... wouldn't... be... ab...le... to... stop... hi...m..." Satan's body slacked, and his head slowly lolled to the side and he dies suddenly. Joining the massive amounts of death that surrounded them.
The Demon Lord looked back for a moment. "I know..." He crossed his arms, soon giving a small huff of annoyance. "Man! That's such a bummer~! I would have really liked... to kill you myself..." His anger seeped through his carefree tone, it caused the surrounding area to shake from his power, it disappeared as fast as it came though, he didn't want the human world to blow up, yet.
"...Oh well, on to more important matters!" He went into his pocket and brought out a demonized phone. He opened it and dialed a few buttons, it began to ring until someone picked up. "Hello...? Ah! Yolda! Hey, I was wondering if you could assist me on something, it involves a super cool plan I intend to do!" He paused slightly, his mood shifted again. "...Look, you probably got the news... and I know that it must be tough right now, consid-... it's fine? Are you sure? ...Uh huh... okay... plan? What plan?... Come again...? ...Oh yeah! Well anyway..." He began to explain his elaborate... plan.
Saotome was blasted back and he felt another rib snap, his newly created Zebul Emblem is immediately shattered from a single punch from "Oga". He already dealt heavy damage to "Oga", damage that would even hinder Beelzebub, but this demon in-front of him is healing way too fast, he blew his arm off and it immediately grew back.
Concentrating is becoming too difficult right now, the amount of killing intent radiating off of him is starting to mess with his head. Although, the multiple wounds all across his body didn't help either. "Oga" moved too fast for Saotome to move, he brought his arms out, his claws elongated, dripping with his blood. He's ready to rip him to shreds. They were getting closer, until...
"SUPER GREAT DEMON LORD'S PUUUNNNCCCHHH!" Beelzebub brought out his normal fist and hit "Oga" across the face, he was hit so hard that a sonic boom exploded from that punch. He's sent him straight to the ground creating what's equal to a seismic earthquake.
"Took you long enough..." Saotome mumbled. He spat out some blood that collected in his mouth, with a quick twist he reset his dislocated arm. He gave a glare at the Demon Lord.
"Sorry, sorry! A black cat crossed my path so I had to go the long way..." He said rather quickly.
"...You took that from that new T.V Show, Naruto... right...?" Saotome asked with a sharp glare on his face.
"No!" Saotome continued to look at the Demon Lord, making him almost squirm uncomfortably. "...Maybe..." He said a bit more meekly.
Saotome shook his head and sighed. Something caught his eye and he looked down... his eyes widened in horror as he saw the dead bodies of his students, his fists balled up so tight that blood leaked out of his fists. He grit his teeth, red began to bleed into his vision. His body shook with anger and he was about to let loose, let his fury take him over. A strong, reassuring hand landed on his shoulder.
"Do not let those emotions cloud your senses Saotome, it may be tough, but do not let them control you, especially at a time like this..." Beelzebub said with surprising calmness. The rubble began to shift, the immense demonic energy began swelling through the cracks. He looked back and gave a silent nod of thanks to the Demon King.
"Get ready, Beelzebub..." His Contract Seal expanded and became a three-dimensional image on his arm, glowing with immeasurable power being fueled by the walking powerhouse right next to him.
"You don't have to tell me twice, Saotome..." His demonic energy exploded outward, the power that will crush anything in its path. He got into a ridiculous fighting pose... he still acts the same, no matter what the situation.
"RAAAHHH!" The demon broke through the rubble, carrying a large chunk of the ground with him. With another roar he throws the building-sized rock and it speeds toward the strongest team. Saotome raises his glowing arm, but Beelzebub shakes his head, tendrils of demonic power shot out of his body and ripped the rock to pieces. "Oga" teleported behind them, and Beelzebub quickly turned around and caught the demons powerful fist. The air exploded, sounding like cracking thunder. His arm bent slightly from the strain. Saotome quickly created 5 hand-sized Zebul Emblems and each glowing symbol slowly went over his arm, each amplified his power beyond his maximum output.
"Hah!" Saotome struck "Oga" in the face again, it's as if time has come to a near complete stop, Saotome's fist was slowly pushing against "Oga's" cheek, he could see that blood was actually spilling out of the demon's mouth. When each Zebul Emblem disappeared on his arm, it propelled his arm harder and faster.
Time unfroze and the remaining 4 Zebul Emblems shattered, creating an incredible explosion, the demons body was sent flying, the only thing that could be seen was a smoking comet rocketing away.
"Ouch..." He looks back to Beelzebub. "You and I both know that won't stop him, his power is growing too great, if we don't stop him now he could threaten the balance of both the Human World and Hell..." His arm dropped uselessly to his side, he couldn't feel it anymore. He winced, with even the slightest movement painful jolts would shoot up his arm. That was a technique that he thought up a while back, it packs one hell of a punch, but it's a double edged sword, it can cause more damage that his Spell Master's Blast, but he had to sacrifice his arm, if he added just a little more power, everyone would have to call him "Stumpy" from then on.
"Of course, of course." He said casually, he shook his arm, trying to get some feeling back in his hand. "You think that I would come here without a plan?" Saotome's silence was an answer enough. "...Don't answer that... but you know, if given enough time we could kill him, but I don't want to do that for a number of reason. One, the battle that we would have it would be too destructive, the Human World wouldn't survive the devastation and besides, Beelzebub The Fourth and Prince En are supposed to destroy it. And Second... that is actually a bit of a personal reason... the human that took care of my son... he did a pretty good job..." Saotome looked at him with a bit of surprise, he would have never guessed the Demon King would have a soft spot for a human like Oga. "I plan to have Yolda use her Trans-dimensional Demon Powers and seal him away in a separate dimension for the time being... I want to find out how he transformed into that demonic form and possibly reverse it, if not..." He let that hang. Saotome isn't very surprised, even with his idiotic and forgetful personality, you can never forget that he united and defeated the other 6 Deadly Sins and now rules the entire Demon Realm.
"Yeah... not a bad plan, Beelzebub. I'm just wondering... did you really come up with this?"
"What's that supposed to mean...?" He asked with complete seriousness. Saotome gave him a 'look' and Beelzebub laughed nervously.
"Alright I get your point, jeez... you can't let me have one, can you...?"
Saotome smirked. "I try my best..." A portal opened up behind them and Yolda slowly walked out.
"My Lord..." She greeted calmly, when she saw Saotome, her eyes gained a disgusted look. "Human..." She subconsciously covered her chest.
"Yo! It's Yolda, right? How have you been...?" His gaze went lower. "Did your breasts get big-" A broom came out of who-knows-where and smacked him in the face.
"Old pervert..." Beelzebub waves his hands to try and calm her down.
"Now, now, we can talk about how much of a pervert Saotome is later, for now though..." They heard a roar in the distance, it caused a shiver to go up Yolda's spine.
"...Yolda, ready your Trans-dimensional Abilities..."
"Yes, My Lord." He looked to Saotome and gives him a small nod.
"Saotome, if it comes to it... back me up if necessary, but rest up for now. You'll need to be in the best fighting condition if the worst happens." Beelzebub said.
"Yeah..." Beelzebub slowly looks to the source of the roar. He tightens his fists and his Demonic Power explodes. He's going serious... he levitates into the air and as soon as he's a safe distance away he created a Zebul Emblem behind him.
The explosion that it creates causes Saotome and Yolda to fall to the ground. Yolda's eyes are widened in awe and fear. "I-I've never seen him use so much power...!" She said shakily. She would never doubt the Demon King's power and strength, but to be this powerful... no wonder her Lord is the Ruler of Hell.
"That's the Demon King for ya..." Saotome said. He attempted to get up but immediately falls to the ground. All the while saying rather colorful words. Yolda looked to his pathetic form, she wondered what she should do, after a short moment she sighed and went next to him.
"Here, give me your arm. I may not be able to heal it completely, but I can at least ease the pain..." She puts out her hand, his looks to his arm and attempts to move it, it only twitches ever so slightly. He gives her a deadpanned look and she sighed again and roughly grabs his dead arm.
"Easy! Easy!" He said, his voice is laced with pain and annoyance, mostly pain though. She ignores him and silently brings out a small vile of liquid. She quickly pours some over his burned arm and he immediately feels the pain numb, not go away, but... it's manageable.
"Woah... where'd you get that?" He flexed his fingers and made a strong fist. The Contract Seal is glowing brightly, he can feel the power surging within the seal.
"It was medicine that Dr. Furcas made, Lamia also gave it to me when... when..." She suddenly stopped talking when she began to remember what had occurred just moments ago.
(Flashback Start.)
"What happened?!" Yolda yelled, one of the many screens that were playing in the Demon World went black. They were watching Oga get his ass handed to him by Satan and after Oga's friends came to help him. He than released his Zebul Blast, then... darkness.
"I don't know! I didn't do anything!" Lamia said frantically. After Oga won, she wanted to call her mother but she wouldn't answer either... Lamia brought out a remote and tried to press another button, but nothing worked. It made their fear only grow worse.
All of a sudden, a large body slammed into the ground behind them. After the dust cleared the familiar mustached demon is seen.
"Alaindelon!" Lamia quickly went to his side and brought out a clear vile of liquid. She poured it over a large wound on his side. "You're badly injured! What happened?!" Before he could answer she looks to the blond-haired maid. "Yolda-san! Here, continue to pour this onto his wound, I need to get more supplies from Dr. Furcas!" She hands the vile to Yolda and quickly runs off.
Yolda silently walks to Alaindelon and begins to apply more of the liquid. "Hmph... you're that demon that's with my sister..."
He looked to her, his eyes are filled with heavy sadness and regret. "Yolda... I'm so sorry..." His chest splits open and the cold body of Hilda is revealed. Yolda's eyes widen slightly and she doesn't move for a bit, she continues to stare at her sisters unmoving body. She silently picks up Baby Beel's sleeping form and holds him, still staring at her sister. Alaindelon gently removes her from his body and places her on the ground. Silent tears fall from his eyes as he looks down to her. They hear quick footsteps behind them.
Alaindelon! You shouldn't move ye-" She finally notices Hilda's still form, her eyes widen is horror. "Hi-Hilda-nee-san...?" She whispered, she runs over to her body and nearly trips over her own feet. "Hilda-nee-san!" She quickly tries to uses her limited medical abilities, but she's already too late. "N-No... please..." Tears cascade down her cheeks. "Yolda! Do something! Anything!" She continued to stand there, the area went black, and everything faded away besides herself and the body of Hilda. She still stared at her sisters lifeless form.
"—da!" A voice yelled, who was that?
"—lda!" It's clearer this time, but it's still unfamiliar, she didn't care.
"Yolda!" Ah... who is that?
(Flashback End.)
"Yolda!" She looks up, startled from the loud voice.
"Are you alright?" Saotome asked with concern.
"Hmph... why do you ask, human?" He looks at her as if she should know.
"You're crying." She brings her hands up to her face and feels wetness on her cheeks.
"It appears so..." He frowns a bit. "You shouldn't bottle up your emotions like that..."
"..." Before she can speak again, something crashes to the ground. Beelzebub slowly rises from the small crater. His cloak is ripped to shreds, he has multiple cuts and scrapes across his body. One of the horns on his helmet is broken and a large crack is seen on his visor. A lone red eye peaks through the opening. Another body crashes into the ground as well. Saotome tensed, he knew who it is, he could feel the growing power within.
Beelzebub wipes a bit of blood off his cheek and spits some out as well. "Get ready..." Saotome lets the power wash over him, the Contract Seal travels across his arm and soon across his body, a unique design is seen on his face. He grimaced slightly, doing something like letting the Contract Seal travel across one's body is incredibly dangerous, his fight with Oga and Beelzebub the 4th has proven that. But doing it with the Demon King himself? That's just plain suicide. He ignores the growing pain and madness dwelling within his mind and walks forward with Beelzebub, ready to fight "Oga" again.
"Oga" comes speeding forward, he's also not in very well condition. One of his wings are ripped off and large gashes and burns are present on his body. He has a jagged gash on his left eye and blood is leaking out of his mouth. He stumbles forward and to their annoyance, his wounds begin to heal quickly. He roars again, and boosts forward, he runs toward Beelzebub and Saotome, but they are ready. He gets closer and closer until...
...he jumps over them, continuing to run toward the blond-haired maid. "Shit!" Saotome curses. He quickly spun around and activated a Zebul Symbol behind him and let it explode, propelling him to "Oga".
Beelzebub cursed himself. If he didn't have these debilitating injuries, he would have reacted fast enough to stop him... he doesn't want to lose another he considered family, no matter how strange his family is. He turned around and used his Demonic Energy to boost him forward, his speed only a bit slower than "Oga's".
The demon brought his arm forward and grabbed Yolda's neck, his movements are too fast for her to dodge. He slammed her to the ground and raises his clawed hand, ready to crush her skull. He knew that this one is the weakest nuisance of the group. That human is interesting, but that demon... it made his blood rush with excitment! Oh well, he would fight him again after he killed this one just for the hell of it. He gave a psychotic grin, his jagged teeth only increased her fear, "Oga" soon brought his hand down, utterly obliterating the ground with his strength. His smile quickly faded however and he soon felt incredible pain course through his skull.
...
His fist slammed right next to her head, his body is shaking as if it's fighting something within. "Oga" suddenly grabs his head and howls in pain. Tears slowly leak from his eyes and he looks back to Yolda. Her eyes widen at what she sees, the demon infront of her no longer has glowing demonic red eyes, they returned to Oga's normal black ones. They are filled with tremendous sadness and pain. "R-Run, Yol-Yolda..." His eyes flashed red and lets out a demonic growl soon attempting to end Yolda's life again, his other hand flashed out and quickly grabbed the outstretched arm, he's barely holding himself back. His eyes continue to flicker back to red at an even faster rate. Each struggling foot moved toward Yolda's prone form. "P-Please... r-run... NOW!" Oga stops talking suddenly, he seems to have lost control and once again charged at her.
Two fists suddenly come out of nowhere and slam into his face, the force created sent him skidding across the ground. "Didn't anyone teach you better, brat? That's not how you treat a lady!" Saotome yelled. The demon gets back up, he wipes a bit of blood off his cheek. Any trace of Oga's presence disappeared.
"I'll hold him off! You two, do it now!" Beelzebub quickly runs forward and meets "Oga's" relentless attack. Their hands are locked together, they push against each other, their feet sink into the ground from their strength. The demon suddenly releases his hold and makes Beelzebub stumble forward. "Oga" gives him a vicious headbutt, Beelzebub is sent sliding back and blood leaks out of his nearly broken nose.
The demon runs forward like a wild animal. Beelzebub gets into a stance and waits, with a well timed uppercut he punches "Oga" in the chin. "Shoryuken!" Beelzebub yells out... it seemed appropriate. When he was sent flying into the air, Beelzebub quickly sent out tendrils of energy and wrapped them around the demon, immobilizing him for the moment.
"Yolda! Do it! I don't know how much longer I can hold him!" Sweat rolled down his face from the strain, the demon flexed his arm and ripped the bonds, but it's quickly fixed by two more tendrils holding his arm in place. Beelzebub could feel his power wavering, he could only hold on for so long. Yolda is shaken out of her stupor and she quickly moves to help the Demon Lord.
"Yes, my lord!" Yolda activates a portal behind the demon and he's slowly being pulled in. The air is moving as fast as a storm, it's as powerful as a black hole sucking in anything in it's path. Saotome let out a sigh of relief. It looks like it's going to work...
Beelzebub suddenly falls to one knee, the rest of his power is quickly depleted. He hasn't felt this tired since his fight with Satan all those years ago.
"Damn it!" The demon starts to break out of his bonds, he grabs the edge of the portal and with some effort he started to pull himself out. Saotome couldn't let this happen, they've lost too much to let him break free! He jumped up and raised his arm. "Beelzebub, spare me any energy you can!" He nodded and concentrated. Trying to give anything he could.
His Contract Seal glowed and a large Zebul Emblem appeared in-front of the struggling demon, he felt himself being pulled into the portal, but a tendril soon wrapped around his waist, he gave a quick glance and noticed Yolda sent it out. He gave her a small nod and turned his attention back to the demon. "Goodbye, Oga... may you find peace in whatever hell you find yourself in..." He brought his arm up. "Spell Master's...!" He brought his arm forward, if there was anyone looking closely at his face, they would see he's reluctant and pained to do it. "...Blast." He whispered as he punches the demon in the chest and it explodes outward.
Time seems to slow again. Saotome slowly looks to Oga's face and his eyes widen. Oga is looking at him and he's... smiling. Before he's blasted into the portal he hears Oga whisper one last thing.
"Thanks for everything... Saotome-sensei..." He shut his eyes, it's too painful to watch his student go. Oga's slowly pushed into the portal and it shuts, closing forever. It becomes deathly quiet, and Saotome softly lands on the ground. He stands there, not moving for a bit. He silently brings out a cigarette and lights it. He takes a deep drag from the cancer stick and exhales, he looks to the sky and watches the sun go down over the horizon.
A tear falls from his face, the cigarette drops uselessly out of his mouth. "You damn fool..." He steps on the smoking ember. "Beelzebub... I'll be going now... I... I got a lot of bodies to bury..." He turns around and walks away, his once powerful aura is barely visible, only a flicker of its former self.
He watches his old friend walk away, he gives a back-handed wave and disappears in the distance. Beelzebub sighs, he's got a lot of work to do, sometimes being the Demon King has its faults... "Yolda, let's go home..." She nods silently and opens a portal. They slowly walk into the portal and leave the battlefield, where loved ones are to be remembered, and the worst event to happen in humankind to never be forgotten.
But this is not their tale. Their story might be over, but this is just the beginning for Oga Tatsumi.
Every Ending Is A New Beginning.
Oga woke up, he has a splitting headache but he feels relaxed, he kicks the sheets off and feels around for Baby Beel, he can't find him. That's strange. Maybe Hil-... wait.
His drowsiness immediately disappears and he looks around, this... this can't be! He's in his room again! He feels his bed and it's solid, so it can't be a fake... he jumps off the bed, but he trips over his own feet and falls to the floor, his sense of balance is really off for some reason.
"The hell...?" He clumsily walks to the bathroom to check the mirror, to see what's wrong... only that he can't even see his reflection, he's too short to even look in the mirror. He could barely see the top of his head.
"Okay, okay... calm down, this can be easily explained, right...?" His own inability to answer that made it worse. "This can't be happening! Right...? Okay, think calmly, analyze the situation. Gah! This is making my head hurt! No! Stay calm..." After grabbing the conveniently placed stool he looked at his appearance... and it turns out he's young. Really young, maybe about thirteen or fourteen years old. "Okay... so as crazy as it might be, I think I went into the past or something..." He mumbled to himself. He paced around his room, thinking about this strange occurrence. "If I really am in the past... then I can stop Satan! I can stop him before he can... kill... my... friends..." The memories flood back into his brain, overwhelming his thought and emotions. But what really sent him over the edge was seeing Hilda's cold, dead body. "Hilda..." The tears once again fell from his face and he does what any other person would do.
He let out a blood-curdling scream.
"Man, Tatsumi's been in his room for a while, if he doesn't wake up soon he'll be late for school." Misaki Oga said. She sighed, Oga's still being a lazy brat, she'll have to go and... heh, wake him up, older sister style.
"Misaki, why don't you wake up your brother?" Youjirou Oga, Oga's father said, he tries to drink his beer but Shouko Oga, Oga's mother, snatched it away, much to his growing sadness and annoyance as to how she keeps finding them.
"Alright, alright I'll wake the little brat up..." She gets up from her seat and begins to walk up the stairs.
That's when they hear the scream.
"That... that sounded like Tatsumi!" Misaki quickly ran up the stairs, her parents are ready to move as well. She opens the door and sees her little brother huddled in the corner, his body is shaking and she could hear him sniffling and mumbling a few words. She swore she heard him say "Dead." and "Satan." Which already raises some alarms in her book.
"Tatsumi...?" He didn't answer, but his shaking stopped. "Tatsumi, what's wro-" Her instincts screamed at her to move, only due to her abilities as a Red Tail's saved her from getting struck. His fist slammed onto the wall, completely obliterating the wall, straight through to the outside world.
All that damage, caused with a single fucking swing.
She didn't have time to gawk in astonishment, her entire focus on her brother's freak out. "What the hell, Tatsumi!" She carefully walked forward.
"I'm trying to help you!" He flinched heavily from her words, and immediately jumped out the window. "Tatsumi, wait!" She looks out the window and watches him run in the distance, headed straight for Ishiyama High School. "Damn, he's fast!" She runs out of Oga's bedroom and nearly slams into her parents.
"Misaki! What's wrong with Tatsumi?!" Mr. Oga said, his wife also sharing her worry for their son.
"I don't know! He was acting really strange, he tried to attack me then he jumped out the window and ran off." Misaki said, she could feel her entire body shaking in fear, if she hadn't dodged that punch... she shook her head and turned back to her parent. "You two stay here, I'm gonna try and find him!" Misaki said.
"Wai-!" Misaki's already gone. "Please... stay safe..." Mrs. Oga said. Her worry for her son grows with every unanswered second.
Misaki got on a bike she "borrowed" and rode as fast as possible. "Damn it, Tatsumi. I hope you didn't do anything stupid..." She started to pedal more, each rotation propelling her faster, and faster. "Just what the hell happened to you, bro...?"
Oga stopped running as soon as he got to the school, the faces of his dead friends continued to haunt him, he took a shaky breath and tried to calm down. After he freaked out, he tried to get rid of those horrible memories, each of his dead friends faces continued to flash into his mind, but as soon as his sister entered his room, he snapped again. He just realized that his family was probably disintegrated from Satan's finishing move... he hoped it was atleast painless. He shivered from the thought and shook his head, trying to clear his mind. He bumps into someone and is immediately shoved back. He slowly looks up, to his relief, a random delinquent is looking down at him.
"You wanna die, you little punk?" He looks up at the large figure. From the corner of his eye, he notices a couple other goons are trying to surround him. He smiled, some strength came back to his shaking form.
"Yeah, actually... you see it's you who's going to die, you fucking retard." The delinquent's face contorted to anger.
"What did you say you lit-" He's punched in the face and sent flying into the school, he's embedded in the wall, his pant legs are the only thing you can see. Oga cracks his knuckles, oh it's been way too long since he's given a good beat down.
"Let's get this little shit!" He smiled darkly. Let them come, he needed something to distract him anyway.
Screams of pain and terror were heard all across the school.
When Misaki made it to the delinquent school, she didn't think she would run into a fucking massacre. Bodies and pools of blood laid everywhere, in (not on, in) windows, in the street, in the ground, in the wall, in the ceilings of the school. Christ! They're everywhere! She continued to wander around the school until she saw her brother standing over a number of groaning delinquents, they were all a bloody mess and utterly beaten.
Oga's also covered head-to-toe in blood, if she didn't know any better, she would have thought he killed all these people. He held the last one by his shirt, still repeatedly punching him across his face. That one delinquent is the most physically damaged. The only thing that's slightly unique about him is his slicked back hair, and black trench coat. Oga suddenly drops his unconscious form, almost looking like he didn't know what was happening at that moment, she watched as he quickly looked around and grabbed on of the discarded, ripped shirts and wipes his face, cleaning some of the blood off of him. He soon walks out of the school, acting like nothing happened. He also unknowingly earned his reputation much earlier than normal.
Also unknowingly causing a massive ripple of his timeline, changing certain events in the future, some for the better, and some... that's not imortant right now, we'll get back to that later, yeah?
"Yo, Aniki." He walked past her shocked form, she quickly recovers and catches up to Oga. They walk in silence, she quickly sneaks glances at her younger brother a couple of times.
"So... do you want to tell me what happened back there?" She asks with surprising calmness. He looks at her from the corner of his eye, he brings his hands up to his head and rests them there as he walks.
"You blind? I beat up a bunch of retarded, no-life thugs. Nothing special..." She knew he's avoiding the question.
"...I won't push you, Tatsumi, but do try and remember that we're here for you, don't try and push us away..." He takes a nearly unnoticeable stumble. But continues walking, he smiled a bit and silent tears fall from his face.
"Yeah..." He whispers to himself. She looks at him for a bit and gives a small sigh. She slowly wraps her arms around him and hugs him tightly, which he returns after a bit of hesitation. They soon continue walking home. "I won't let anyone die, I'll save my friends, I'll save my family, I'll save... Hilda... just you wait Satan, I'll fucking kill you this time!" His small smile soon gets bigger and fiery determination shines in his eyes.
He would save them.
Author's Notes:
Hello everyone! I know my other story is still not finished, but I wanted to take a little break from it. I recently finished the Beelzebub manga and I loved it! After I finished the manga, it was gnawing at me to write my own story, everything was great with the manga!... except for the ending... the ending... it was alright. I mean I liked how everything ended up in the epilogue, but I'm not going to lie, when Oga had to fight Satan and he just gains an overpowered superpower to defeat him is not really satisfying for me.
Let me explain, Oga easily overpowers Satan, the demon who fought against The Great Demon Lord, to a near standstill. Remember, their power was so great and destructive that it split Hell in two, and he lost because Oga became a "Super Saiyan" and then he gains power from the friendship bonds he created to power up even more and defeat Satan like that? It just doesn't sit well with me, I am also sorry in advance if you don't agree with me and don't like my reasoning.
If you don't want to read then just don't read, it's as simple as that. If you liked the First Chapter then read on!
As always have a good day! Bye!
