As Rhya stood before Rui, he looked at the entrance of the room she had left from. There he was, Yuuki Eden, resting inside of a bed as if he wasn't waking up anytime soon. Rhya knew how powerful Yuuki's hearing was. If he hasn't woken up from the sound of him and his group invading the ship, then he knew something was wrong.

Just as Rhya looked at Rui, he swiftly jumps backwards to narrowly avoid the blade of Rui's scythe that was formed from the shadows. With a smirk on his face, Rhya opened his right hand as the shadows inside of the ship gathered to form three knives in his hand as he threw them at Rui. Seeing this, Rui swung her scythe as she deflected the knives thrown at her.

"Rhya's Ether Gear, Arsene. He can copy the Ether Gear of anyone he's come into physical contact with. Just how many has he copied ever since the Eden Project?"

"Hmmm. If I remember correctly, I heard Yuuki went berserk due to Hitomi's interference. Yet because of that, it seems like Yuuki is closer to hearing it now than he ever was."

"Hearing what?! Answer me."

"Heh. You'll find out one day, kid. For now though, you better focus on the enemy. The only reason you became Code Breaker #5 was because the Ether Gear I copied at the time weren't at their prime potential and I didn't even get a chance to grab a hold of the Demon King's Ether Gear. "

"Didn't get a chance? What are you talking about?! You act as if you fough-"

"Answer me this, Rui. Who do you think had to hold him off amongst the Code Breakers, while you younger lot were trying to find a way to escape."

~Meanwhile~
Maria, Seth, and Diego were seen walking down the corridor of the ship. Soon some automatic turrets were aimed at them from the ceiling, probably a defense mechanism of the ship. Before the turrets could fire, Seth had already shot all of them down.

"Damage to our ship, illegal entry, and jamming our communication. I cannot look over your offenses anymore. By the authority vested in me as Witch, the shield of Edens Zero, I will remove the intruders. Removing Ether Limiter. Battle Dress. Requip!!!!!"

~With Rui~
"What are you on about, Rhya?!"

"On the day we were assigned our ranks, when it was our turn to be ranked, the Demon King was reported to have arrived on the planet. Shortly after, that's when he attacked the facility. In order to protect the younger Code Breakers, myself and two other Code Breakers were in charge of holding him off. But that's enough of the past."

Rhya has only one mission at the moment. To take Yuuki back with him to meet with Drakken Joe. After taking a deep breath, Rhya clenched his fists as he was prepared to fight.

"Hope you're ready, kid. You're gonna have to fight me like your life depends on it. Magimech Attack:Gravity Fist!"

With his right arm glowing momentarily, Rhya delivered a gravity powered punch towards Rui's stomach. As the girl was sent flying, her back hit the wall of the ship as small cracks were seen on said wall. As Rhya was clenching his right hand, a small smile began to form on his face.

"I should thank that Shiki fellow. He was nice enough to shake my hand when I greeted him. That made copying his Ether Gear a lot easier for me. Plus you're at a disadvantage, Rui. Your signature attack can't be used here, otherwise, you'd destroy this entire ship. Resulting in a lot of  us dying in the vacuum of space, including Yuuki here."

"You said that I stole your position as Code Breaker #5. Meaning that I would be Code Breaker #6 if things had gone as planned, correct. That's fine by me. After all, it still means I'm strong enough to be a Code Breaker. Meaning.......I'm still at your level. After all, you're only one rank higher than me."

"Fine then, let's dance."

As Rhya said this, several black wolves were seen emerging from his shadow as they all lunged at Rui. Seeing this, Rui swiftly swung her scythe as she sliced the wolves apart. While she was doing that, Rhya dashed around her as he was now facing her back.

"Well then............."

As Rhya created several large shards of ice and launched them at Rui, the girl's shadow suddenly emerged from the ground and formed a sphere around her body to block the attack. When the barrage of ice stopped striking the barrier, Rui dropped it as she used the scythe in her hand to block a katana that Rhya made from his own shadow.

".......try not to disappoint me, Code Breaker #5!!!"

~With Witch~
As the rest of the intruders looked at Witch, Diego quickly took out his gun and aimed it at Witch. Seeing this, Witch swung her right arm at Diego's direction. Before he knew it, his gun was now frozen solid in his hands as Witch glared at him. Seeing this, Maria began to smirk as she swung her leg up, to the point it stretched and reached the ceiling of the hallway.

"Witch, huh."

"I request that you refrain from damaging the Demon King's ship any further."

"Demon King, Witch. What's next, a princess is on here?!"

"Air Ether!!!!"

"The people of this ship are like my family. If anything should threaten them, I shall show no mercy."

~With Rhya~
"Magimech Attack:Gravity Fist Frenzy!"

Rhya's fist glowed momentarily before unleashing a barrage of punches onto Rui's body. Each one having an heavy impact upon her body. Just as she was about to crash into a wall, Rhya quickly created a chain made from the shadows of the wall to restrain her via copying her Ether Gear. While Rui was restrained, Rhya picked up Yuuki off of the hospital bed. Soon Yuuki, Rui, and Rhya himself began to sink into the shadows as Rhya was hiding their presence. As this happened, Rhya spoke to Drakken Joe through a lacrima.

"We got one of the treasures you were looking for. It's only a matter of time before the other one you're searching for is retrieved as well. For now, I'll just sink into the shadows of the ship until you give the word."

~Meanwhile~
Drakken Joe was seen in a control room of sorts as a smirk appeared on his face. Soon he turned around as he was beginning to think things might get interesting.

"What about you, do you also plan to get involved?"

As Drakken Joe looked past the Element 4, he saw the man who told him about Yuuki Eden and the potential that he held. After stretching for a bit and letting a yawn escape from him, the man smiled.

"Yuuki and Kouma both got to show the crew of that ship just how powerful they are. I might be more of the planning type, but even I have to let loose once in a while. Guess it's my turn to take the stage."
