It was night as Ryu and Lubbock were in an alley as Ryu currently had the arms of a giant man in his hands as he seemed to be choking the man with them.

Ryu: Explain to me in one good sentence why you throughly blindsiding me was a good idea and I might just let you go.

Man: *Incoherent chocking sounds*

Ryu: Wrong answer.

He pulled sighted as they both heard a snap.

Lubbock: Damn man you are hardcore!!

Ryu: You'd be too if you were in my world.

???: What the heck?!!

They look to see a girl with light blonde hair and green eyes. A rather beautiful one at that. Ryu however could not give a rats ass and held his hand up.

???: Why is it hot all of a sudden?

Ryu: Burnout.

The girl screamed as she was surrounded by white flames being burned until not even ashes remained.

Lubbock: AH! Dude she was super cute too!!

Ryu: Ok my guy, you've gotta learn to contain that thirst of yours.

TIME SKIP!!

At the hideout

Ryu and Susanoo were cooking as everyone was enjoying their meals.

Ryu: Thanks for helping out with the cooking Susanoo. It's been getting pretty tough to keep cook by myself lately.

Susanoo: No problem.

Everyone was feasting as Ryu seemed to have much on his mind. Najenda noticed this before swallowing her food and speaking up.

Najenda: Ok Ryu, what's bothering you?

Ryu: If I say you'll think I'll sound like an arrogant idiot.

Najenda: I think you sound like that always.

Ryu: Yeah I walked right into that. I'll say but don't flip when you hear it. I think we have to make the first move for the final battle soon. And I mean tomorrow soon.

Everyone stopped hearing this looking at Ryu.

Ryu: Told ya. Wasn't gonna bother since I thought you'd never-

Najenda: Actually you could be on to something.

Ryu: Ok you don't have to rub salt in the...

It took a moment for his brain to register what Najenda said.

Ryu: O_O Who are you and what have you done with the boss?

Leone: HUH?!!!

Akame: Boss you can't be serious!!

Najenda: Usually, but I've seen exactly what this maniacs TRUE Trump Card is.

Ryu: So you were eavesdropping.

Mine: YOU CAN HURL A GIANT SUN ONTO THE GROUND!!!

Chelsea: For once I'm with Mine, how much more power do you even need?!!

Ryu: You know at first I came to the world for a worthwhile fight, but now I'm just here to get payback on Esdeath.

Bulat: Boss, do you really think we have a chance?

Najenda: All of you, I'm not sure if you're aware of the true nature of Ryu's abilities.

Sheele: True nature?

Ryu: Ah, so you did figure it out. You guys are aware that everyone in my world can have something called an Aura right? I told you what it was?

Tatsumi: Yeah but what does that have to do with anything?

Ryu: Well, everyone in my world has a particular ability only exclusive to them. That's called a Semblance. And I have a pretty powerful one.

Akame: What is it?

Ryu: Well, try and guess from what you've seen me do.

Sheele: Ok... Well I guess we've seen you use super big explosions.

Ryu: Hm hmm.

Mine: And you've used water and wind, but before that lasers.

Ryu: Yup.

Tatsumi: And on top of that you can fly. I've also occasionally seen you using lightning.

Susanoo: And there's been many instances where you've shown incredible speed.

Ryu: Yeah.

Lubbock: And I've literally seen you teleport.

Leone: But you also use earth powers too right?

Ryu: Uh huh.

Chelsea: And you've created crystal weapons before. But none of that correlates to each other. I don't get it.

Bulat: Yeah honey, there's nothing to tie those together.

Ryu: I figured you'd say that. Ok, how about I show you something you all should recognize.

He had a big grin as he disappeared right in front of them.

Mine: Ok, so is he off to get something or-

Ryu: BZZT, wrong. I'm still in the room.

All: AH!!!

Ryu became more visible but he seemed transparent.

Bulat: WH-WHAT THE?!!

Tatsumi: YOU CAN TURN INVISIBLE JUST LIKE BRO AND I'VE DONE WITH INCURSIO!!!

Ryu: Oh yeah. Now you get an idea?

Akame: C-Can you copy people's abilities?!

Ryu: That's right half pint!

Tatsumi: HOW THE HELL IS THAT POSSIBLE?!!!

Ryu: It just is. My semblance doesn't have to follow any kind of logic like anyone else's. And for extra insurance, I copied Esdeath's Imperial Arms.

Najenda: I think you should all realize the power of the man we see before us. Honestly, man doesn't even the word. More like the warrior in front of us is impossible to beat.

Tatsumi was wide eyed.

Tatsumi: I never realized Ryu was this... Unstoppable.

Leone: Man I'm glad he's on our side!

Mine: Better to have an overpowered monster on our side than not.

Ryu: Yeah it would've been handy to have it at an earlier time in my life but better late then never.

He reappeared as Leone grabbed his arm.

Leone: Well if tomorrow is gonna be the day than that's the biggest chance we die, SO~ if that's the case then I want to sleep with you tonight Ryu!

Ryu: You fucking what?

Akame: Y-You can't do that Leone!!

Lubbock: THANK YOU FOR SAYING THE ONLY THING THAT MAKES SENSE RIGHT NOW AKA-

Akame grabbed Ryu's other arm as he instantly knew what could be going on.

Akame: I wanted to spend the night with Ryu!!

Ryu: -_- Tatsumi, help.

Tatsumi: Yeah I have nothing to do with this.

Ryu: Bro?

Bulat: Sorry hunky but even I know not to get in between that.

Ryu: Su, please, do a brother a favor.

Susanoo: What could I do?

Ryu: ... Lub-

Lubbock was currently frozen as his mouth was agape. This happening only made one meme come to Ryu's mind.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Fang: Just a note: I'm black.

Ryu: -_- I save you're fucking lives and this is the thanks I get?

Both of them were refusing to let go.

TIME SKIP!!

Ryu: Ughh. One of these days I am gonna try making myself a chick again.

Ryu was pulling on his gloves on clenching his fist a few times.

Shojo: Time the heck out Ryu I need an explanation.

Ryu: It was a VERY fucked up adventure ok? You were probably dormant at the time, so look in my memories of you have the guts.

Ryu took in a breath walking out of the hideout. Immediately he saw Night Raid and the entire Revolutionary Army.

Ryu: Well, the Calvary's here. Pretty quick Najenda.

Najenda: Yes, as soon as I told them of your abilities they came with no hesitation.

Ryu cracked a smile.

Ryu: Well guys, I'm gonna make sure that the last Battle is today. And then, my promise is kept, and I can get back to Remnant.

Bulat: Ah so soon? You could just stay for a little longer.

Ryu: Yeah no I'm gonna get bitched at for sure. Now, just to be absolutely more petty than I should be, I need all of you to come around me.

They nodded and crowded around Ryu. As he took a long breath before glowing.

Ryu: For it is in struggle that we achieve invincibility. Through this, we become a Paragon of Hope and Strength to go Beyond all who are not. Infinite in Bravery and Unbound by Gods, I release thy soul, and by my power unleash thee.

All of them glowed as Ryu let out a small sigh.

Ryu: Count yourselves lucky. You're all the first humans in this dimension to have their Aura's unlocked by the strongest aura user.

Tatsumi: Incredible.

Leone: Ah man I feel like I can take on the whole world now!!!

Lubbock: This is a rush!!

Chelsea: I think I kinda understand how you feel now.

Ryu rose into the air smirking.

Ryu: I never, EVER, thought I'd say this sentence as I am now, BUT LET'S GO FREE THAT KINGDOM!!!

Everyone roared in excitement as they all followed the flying Ryu to the Capital.

Ryu: I'M LEAVING THE MINISTER AND THE EMPEROR TO YOU ALL, ESDEATH IS DEFINITELY WAITING ME.

Tatsumi: GO FOR IT RYU!!

Before he parted he and Tatsumi fist bumped. That's when Ryu sensed around for Esdeath finding her and Seryu.

Ryu: SURPRISE FUCKERS!!!

Esdeath: Ryu!!

Seryu: Where have you been all this-

Ryu: Imma stop you right there. Do you remember you almost killed a woman with the Imperial Arms Extase.

Seryu's eyes widened in shock before they seemed to contort into blind fury.

Seryu: YOU WHERE THE MAN IN THE MASK THAT NIGHT!!!!

Ryu: No shit.

Seryu: KORO, AT-

Before the organic could even do anything Ryu was in front of it.

Ryu: Bye~.

Koro had melted entirely as not even his core remained. Seryu couldn't even comprehend what had happened before she was grabbed by the neck by Ryu.

Ryu: This, is for almost killing Sheele.

She was burned in fire as she let out blood curdling screams before she was nothing put ashes.

Ryu: Wave I already met up with, he's not apart of this anymore. So, you're the only one left Esdeath.

Ryu had an insane smile looking at her.

Esdeath: So you were apart of Night Raid this whole time.

Ryu: Yup. And another thing: I ALREADY HAD A FUCKING GIRLFRIEND!!!

Esdeath: What?

Ryu: Yeah I'm from another world, and I'm not fucking single.

Esdeath: Mmm, well I still want to-

Ryu: Make me yours yeah yeah I heard that song a dance a bunch of times. You did something that hurt my pride. Land a blow on my neck WHILE I was still injured and off guard. And if you're only gonna kill from here on, I only really have on choice. And that's to kill ya.

Esdeath immediately tried impaling Ryu with a sword but found that it broke in half.

Ryu: ... You realize that sealed your fate right?

Esdeath: Ryu, if you claim that you'll kill me, you're saying I am weak. That is something that I cannot allow to stand. You need to be punished for that.

Ryu: Try it.

She created and ice sword and ran at Ryu who seemed to be on the defensive. That defense slowly seemed to turn to offense as he took out crunch bite combatting Esdeath on equal footing.

Ryu: Hey, you actually are powerful.

Esdeath: You are as well.

Shaking started to happen as the two pulled apart from each other.

Ryu: Wait, don't tell me.

Esdeath: So now I get to see the power for myself. Primus Empulator.

From the castle emerged a giant robot. And from it a laser shot into the city.

Ryu: UGHHHH!!!!!

Esdeath tried slashing at Ryu again but the sword shattered on him.

Esdeath: What seems to be the problem?

Ryu: Oh, you know, just a DAMN CHILD having a SUPER WEAPON OF MASS DESTRUCTION THAT I CAN'T FUCKING HAVE!!! WE'RE PUTTING OUR SHIT ON HOLD!!!!

Ryu transformed into his Wolf State flying up and activating his Valet Power.

Esdeath: He can transform?!

He saw Tatsumi and even Wave who had his Chariot armor on trying to combat it.

Ryu: WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM KICK!!!!!!

Ryu drop kicked the mech causing it to actually fall over.

Tatsumi: ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?!!!!

Wave: FOR ALL THE TROUBLE WE'RE HAVING TO EVEN MAKE THAT THING BUDGE YOU COME OUT OF NOWHERE WITH A DROP KICK AND DO DAMAGE?!!!!

???: YOU INSOLENT FOOL!!! HOW DARE YOU ATTACK THE EMPEROR!!!!

Ryu turned and saw a fat bastard with white hair.

Ryu: Oh, Prime Minister Honest. That makes my job a whole lot less complicated. AYO FATASS, WHERE'S THE KIDS PARENTS AT?!!!

Emperor: DON'T TALK TO THE MINISTER IN SUCH A WAY!!!

The giant mech threw a punch at Ryu but the antihero threw his fist up causing a dense crystal wall to stop the fist.

Honest: THE EMPEROR'S PARENTS HAD DIED IN AN INEXPLICABLE ACCIDENT!! I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT-

Ryu hearing that new exactly what happened as true rage formed in his eyes.

Wave: What a load of bull! It's obvious he killed them!

Ryu appeared in front of honest before giving a sadistic smile.

Ryu: You'll be put in a good amount of pain before you die.

He snapped his fingers as honest screamed being burned in flames.

Ryu: Those will burn hotter the more you scream.

He looked back to the giant mech before clenching his fist.

Ryu: I guess I can show the first Trump Card.

He put up a finger before rising into the air.

Tatsumi: WAVE BRACE YOURSELF!! HE'S GONNA USE CRUEL SUN!!!

Wave: Is that the move that-

Tatsumi: YUP!!!!

They both ran as in an instant Ryu had prepared the attack. Much faster than the 30 second charge up time before.

Ryu: Sorry kid, but you're dead too. CRUEL SUN!!

He threw the attack down as it progressively became larger and larger before it engulfed the mech with a massive explosion and the "Emperor's" scream. When the smoke cleared it was revealed nothing of it was left, not even the scraps.

Wave: ... No way... He's...

Tatsumi: ... Yeah, I know.

Ryu landed in front of Esdeath.

Ryu: Now, how about we keep going with that little scuffle of ours?

Tatsumi: A freaking demon.

Esdeath for once seemed slightly less confident in herself.

Esdeath: 'Ryu genuinely could kill me here. I'm sorry my love, but if it comes down to it, I have no choice but to kill you.'

Esdeath seemed to put her hands together as they glowed.

Ryu: Moment of truth.

Ryu breathed in as his flames burned bright.

Esdeath: MAKAHADOMA!!

Everything seemed stop in a blue light as Esdeath seemed to be the only one who could move.

Esdeath: Ryu, this a technique I made to stop you from escaping again. Freezing time itself. I never thought I'd use it to kill you.

She was about to stab him before she noticed something.

The flames slowly began to rage.

START THAT MUSIC!!!

Esdeath: Th-This is impossible!! Nothing should be able to move right now!!!

She slowly saw Ryu move as well as a smirk appeared on his face.

Ryu: OH YEAH?!!! WELL CHECK AGAIN!!!!

Esdeath was punched in the face by the flaming Ryu as everywhere around them began to burn.

Esdeath: How are you doing this?!!!

Ryu: Fuck you that's how!!

The fire spread until everyone had unfrozen.

Susanoo: What's going on? Th-This heat.

Lubbock: There's only one guy that can do something this crazy.

Akame: Ryu?

Ryu and Esdeath where inside a tornado of flames as Ryu swiped his hands away along with the flames around him.

Esdeath: I stopped time! It can't be possible for someone to move when both time and space freeze!

Ryu: Well, normally you're right, but I'm the special case. While you can freeze time with the Demon's Extract, I can burn anything with the flames of my Hell Blaze Extract.

Esdeath: Burn time and space?!!

They both ran towards each and other as they clashed with sparks flying everywhere.

Ryu: And you wanna know something funny? This isn't even a Trump Card! This is the power of the flames themselves!!

Esdeath: I will not die here!! If I do than that means I was as weak as the people I slaughtered!! The strong thrive and the weak are devoured by them!! That is how this world works!!!

Ryu: Well if you're right then someone will have to change it!!

He grabbed Esdeath's wrist as they looked at each other eye to eye.

Ryu: When it's coming from someone who's slayed hundreds under the worst cause-

He began to swing Esdeath.

Ryu: AND HAS ABANDONED HIS FRIENDS!!!

He threw her up hearing a scream.

Ryu: THEN YOU KNOW THAT SOMETHING IS FUCKED!!!!

The flames burned as Ryu held his hands out.

Ryu: HAVE A TASTE OF MY LAST TRUMP CARD!!!

A Crystal scythe formed in his hands as it started glowing in a burning white fire and grew massive.

Ryu: Scythe of Destruction-

He jumped up as Esdeath launched a massive ice meteor.

Ryu: Surasshu O Shōkyo Suru!!!
(Transliteration: Erasing Slash)

He cut through the meteor as it melted into nothing. That when he was in front of Esdeath as he literally cut off her lower half causing her to gush blood as the fell to the ground.

MUSIC END!!

The scythe shattered causing the flames to disappear along with the vortex. Ryu walked up to Esdeath with her body burning.

Ryu: ...

Esdeath: ... Ha, it looks like you defeated me Ryu...

Ryu: ... Looks like it.

He smiled looking at her.

Ryu: You gave me exactly what I was looking for. A worthwhile fight. You're by far the strongest in this world. Just not outside of it.

Esdeath seemed to slightly smile.

Esdeath: Strong hm? For all my life... I was taught that only the strong survived...

Ryu: Well, power is important yes, but it definitely isn't be all end all. To truly be strong, you've got to know what makes you weak.

Esdeath: Do you think I... Could have done it...?

Ryu: Well, you've been guided down a bad path so it would've taken a few more years, and then a defeat like this one. But since this battle was to the death, you won't be able to learn from that.

The flames on Esdeath's body slowly began to burn the rest of her with nothing seeming to come from the flames. That's when a tear fell from her face.

Esdeath: I see... But tell me... You still had more power up your sleeve didn't you?

Ryu: ... Yeah.

Esdeath: Heh... I expected as much.

She smiled again as her body began to almost disappeared completely as her head was about to be burned away.

Ryu: Hopefully we can see each other in the next life.

Before her eye completely vanished she saw the genuine smile coming from Ryu. That's when her head was gone as well.

Shojo: Well Ryu, that was the fight you were looking for. And more I can only guess.

Ryu: Yeah.

Shojo: You want it to end don't you?

Ryu: *Sarcastic* Oh no, what makes you think I wanna stop slaughtering a dozen people a day? It's not like I don't enjoy it.

Shojo: One day buddy.

Ryu looked at his hand as in his mind he heard screams and cries.

Ryu: ... Hopefully.

Night Raid: RYU!!!!

He turned and saw that Night Raid was running towards him.

Tatsumi: THAT WAS SO EPIC DUDE!!!!

Lubbock: YOU CREAMED BOTH ESDEATH AND THAT GIANT!!!!

Leone: YOU'RE AWESOME!!!!

He looked at everyone and smiled.

Ryu: Who else could've done it?

Bulat: YOU'RE THE MAN!!!

They all stopped as Ryu let out a sigh.

Ryu: Well, my word was kept. That means I'm going.

Sheele: Can't you stay for just a little longer?

Chelsea: Please?

Ryu: Sorry you two, but I must've been gone for at least a week in my world. Even though it sucks I'm not exactly done killing.

Akame: I see...

Ryu: But, I can leave a present.

He held out his hand as a Portal Gun formed.

Ryu: Akame, Leone, catch.

He threw it to the two as Leone caught it.

Leone: Woah, what in the world is this thing?

Ryu: You can travel dimensions with it. It's how I got here so you two will be able to do the same. And make sure you share it, got it?

Akame: We're not children you know?

Ryu: Akame, this isn't the first life I've lived, you're all kids compared to me mentally.

Mine: Wait, how old are you actually?

Ryu: Right now I'm technically 19 here, but in actuality I didn't really age so I'm still 18, and if I'm accounting for all my lives...

He thought a bit before giving an answer.

Ryu: Probably like 5000-6000 years old.

All: WHAT?!!!!

Ryu: Anyway before I leave, Lub, you remember that deal I made right?

Lubbock: Uh- Dude you're really gonna put me on the spot like this?

Ryu: Lub, I just took down both a giant fucking mech, and FUCKING Esdeath having to use two Trump Cards in a row. I'm at half strength, I, NEED, to hear it.

Najenda: What are you talking about?

Lubbock: *Sigh* Well I wasn't exactly going to do it right away but I did say after everything was over.

He looked at Najenda steeling his already great resolve, as well as his stomach in case he got punched.

Lubbock: Najenda... I love you. And I have for a really long time. And I'm not just talking about just for your looks or body, I mean I genuinely love the strong and determined woman that's standing in front of me now.

Everyone was shocked to hear words that honest and profound from Lubbock as Najenda blushed. After a second she grabbed him by the collar and kissed him.

Shojo: Ryu, did you help him with that line?

Ryu: 'I'm evil, but I can still give love advice.'

He turned around ready to go before feeling two taps on his shoulders. When he turned back he immediately got two kisses on the cheek by Akame and Leone. He rolled his eyes before smiling.

Najenda: We'll never forget how you helped us Ryu.

Susanoo: Take care.

Sheele: We're all gonna miss you.

Mine: You did make it a lot better around here.

Tatsumi: That's putting it light Mine.

She tapped him on the shoulder rolling her eyes and smiling. Ryu looked down and noticed that they held hands together.

Ryu: 'Well I'll be damned.'

Bulat: Let's have a drink next time we see each other!

Ryu: For sure.

Chelsea: You were a good friend Ryu.

Ryu: Not were, are.

Chelsea: Haha, yeah!

Lubbock: Thanks man.

Najenda: Safe journeys Ryu.

He brought out his own portal gun and shot a portal into the ground. He smiled before giving them all a two finger salute jumping in. The portal closed behind him and as he floated down a single year seemed to go up.

Ryu: Damn, I can't believe I just got a little sentimental.

Shojo: Well, that proves that you aren't a complete monster yet. They don't cry at all.

He shot another portal revealing that he was in the land of Darkness over the Evernight Castle.

Shojo: Why didn't you tell the others?

Ryu: I didn't have much freedom left. Plus, I believed in them.

He looked at his fist before flying into the palace.

ACT 1: END.
