Jura: you're here. That's fast.

Al: we've our own ways.

Jura: teleportation isn't it?

Roy: jura... You bastard!!!

Jura: what an unusual surge of spirit.

Ed: stop this right now!!! Devastating things might happen!!

Jura: what could happen?  Seriously. Just a gate.

Al: even so many generations protected this!!!

Ed: kia protected it... The circles on this door. Something horrible will happen if you do that!!!

Jura: I know. I've been told.

Al: he doesn't care. He wants it gone.

Jura: I think I'm starting to like smart people. Too bad all of you here are going to die.

Roy snaps his finger and fire spreads towards the machine. Suddenly all of it was returned from where it came from and a bigger flame with a slice of the katana.

Jura: oops.

" this gate. Should be gone.  "

Ed: who are you?

" kids.... " he released another slice and it send a huge gust of wind. It pushed them to the gate and hit them with a huge slice across all of their bodies. Blood flowed and they collapsed. They stand up again holding their blood with their wounds...

He charged forward...

The gate suddenly opens...

*clank* " yo people.  "

Their eyes widens.... " kia? "

" hey grim. Long time no see. " kia's blade was being pushed back.

grim: get out of the way. You should know best. That thing killed my wife. I will kill it now. I just didn't have the means before. Now I do, get out!!Unless you aren't the real kia cos she has died.

" I have died. And for reasons I hate to say, I am back. " alchemy reacts and grim steps back not wanting his blade to be destroyed.

grim: are you real?

kia: what?

grim: you heard me. Are you real?

the atmosphere was tense, ed and the others wanted to know too. Was she the real kia they had hoped for?

 " damn right she is !!! " yuki stepped through the door. " eliza... gave her body and ryuuga gave his soul, what more real evidence do you need? " Alchemy reacts on the ground below the machine and two big hands transmutated, the hands lift the machine up to attempt to squash the machine but a red barrier created by the kenja no ishi protects it. Yuki make the hands throw the machine roughly onto the ground " that disgusting thing. "

" my disgusting thing against all of you. I wonder who will win. " grim eyed to jura to fire it. Jura smirked and gave a thumbs up. He touch to the machine and make the machine stand back right up an plot root like things into the ground. The machine started to harvest a power. " yuki!! take over!! " grim ran forward to kia with his blade. Yuki flash stepped in font of grim and held onto his blade with her hand.

Kia ran towards the machine. Of course jura wasn't about to let kia come near so easily. He flash stepped in front of kia, kia dodged the first slice that came from jura's blade. Roy snap his finger to try set the machine on fire. The barrier refuse to break. The three of them claps their hands and touch onto the barrier and alchemy reacts trying to break the damn barrier the machine had put up. Now jura got anxious, the barrier was starting to break.

Suddenly alchemy reacts and jura disappeared. Kia stayed in her place being careful, she wasn't sure if he was really already gone. Suddenly a slice got kia's shoulder. As she thought, he is still around. He was camouflaging, or invisible.

Meanwhile the blast at the ray was getting bigger. The barrier finally broke. They tried to destroy the ray this time. The metal started to crack but they were happy too fast, the kenja no ishi tried to keep its own body by regerating back the metal again and again.

roy: this is useless.

ed: we are not fast enough.

al: how about using your fire? That killed lust the other time.

Meanwhile, yuki's hand was already being chopped off and blood kept on flowing out. She regenerated it back easily by wearing her glove that had a regeneration circle on one side.

grim: you are really annoying.

" many people say that." she ran forward let all the slices that grim threw at her get her. She managed to get close range at him. She regenerates all the parts that was being cut off and  attempts to puts her hand through his stomach. He jumps a few steps backwards. A hand came out from the ground behind him, grabbed his collar and threw him to her direction. He released a slice which propelled him away from her. Grim flew backwards and passed by jura and now they exchanged opponents.

grim: now this is the correct one.

jura: hi~ yuki.

yuki: tsk.

Kia took off running seeing that the ray was about to fire. Grim stood in her way, " get out. Before I destroy you along with it. " Grim opened his arms " try me. "

" its not going to make it. " ed claps his hand and touches making a barrier surrounding the ray. The ray fires and hits the barrier. Holding in less than half a second it was going to break. Al and roy helps and barrier recovers its cracks. It was now at least holding for a while. 2 minutes....

" fine. " alchemy reacts and the reaction goes around grim, " let go!! " the three of them releases the barrier and let the reaction go to the machine. A huge reaction occurs. Kia's back to zero was fighting against the kenja no ishi. Finally kia won and the machine broke down. She squatted down a little tired.

grim: you....

roy snap his fingers and let a ring of fire protect kia " there is still us. "

grim: you will be too tired to even fight me. I am the strongest gatekeeper in history you know?

jura: oh shut up. We have failed. Never mind that though, there will always be another chance. There is no meaning anymore. Let's go.

ed: these voices... homonculus.

kia: where?!!

Than pride walked out " have you... perhaps lost your ability to hear voices? kia. " he makes his shadow wrap around the two, he smiles. Without even waiting for an answer, alchemy reacts and they teleport away.

kia: ..... its over. For now.

ed: kia... is it true? Everything.

yuki : its true. All of it. Eliza and ryuuga is gone. It was the terms of the Truth. One soul and another body of a living person. The extra souls in ryuuga.... including eliza's souls are tolls.

kia ran to roy and hugged him " nii-san... " she cried... " why... I didn't ask to come back." He stroked her hair " gomen... we needed you." She pulled onto his shirt " you told them to?..." 

roy: no. Never!!

she hugged him tightly " nii-san... I saw falman.  "

roy: is that so? Did he say anything?

kia: walk forward bravely. 

al: that... doesn't make sense. Its not equal. The rules of equality... don't apply?

ed: maybe... the Truth thinks kia is worth that much. Or was Truth just being greedy? That thing in the flask once said, the Truth punishes the arrogant. Was that a punishment? We were too greedy for something because we think we needed it. Again. 

kia: that answer...

flashback~

kia: what?!!! Don't agree!!

Why should I listen to you?

kia: please... I don't mind staying here forever.

of course you don't mind. It is a paradise compared to out there.

kia:  don't you think you are asking for too big a price!!! You are being unfair!!

unfair? You are dead. You shouldn't be alive. Just because they need you, I should defy the rules of life and give them an equal deal? You have to understand, breaking rules have prices to pay. If you were just a normal human, I would have been okay with a soul an a body. A real human that is.

kia: what worth do I have...?

Good question. You have skills that can overturn this whole disaster. You have strength, power, people to help you. In another words, a worthy human. I want a lot more for you.

kia: don't you want peace too? Less deaths?

Deaths? Its just a way of allowing me to collect souls. Chaos? Not my business. I didn't create all these in the first place. All of these was because humans got arrogant and wanted to explore and do the impossible. Prices have to be paid to make the impossible possible. Surely you understand that.Oh one more thing, your abilities as an agent are stripped of. You are dead,those things were nulled.

end of flashback~

ed: I see... than its only me now.
