Chapter 12: A new Threat!?

*2nd Person's POV*

You, Tatsumi and Susanoo are training at the waterfall Tatsumi using eclipse he's still learning how to switch from light to darkness

[y/n]: Tatsumi go!!!

Tatsumi: Brilliance!!

He glowed as his speed is increased also his strength he sliced the incoming boulder in two he looked back that's when he let down his guard as another one hit him

Tatsumi: Argh!!

You and Susanoo facepalm at his carelessness

Susanoo: Tatsumi... Your striking strength is indeed impressive but... Don't merely use your entire body in order to strike the enemy down

Tatsumi: What do you mean?

[y/n]: Meaning You have to find a weak spot... Everything has it

Susanoo went forward and another boulder came this time he quickly scan for a weak point, when he found it he hit it with his weapon easily, Tatsumi is amazed by it you did the same, but just used the handle of your sword and the boulder shatters

Susanoo: You learned fast [y/n]...

[y/n]: Actually I was trained by my father that was his teaching in finding a weak spot in battle, comes in handy when battling foes that are stronger than you

Tatsumi: Woah...

You weren't looking but another one was headed your way, Tatsumi noticed this but before he could warn you, you turn around and slice the boulder

Tatsumi: H-How did you do that?

[y/n]: In order for you to properly use Eclipse you must learn to switch from light to darkness instantly, sometimes you must learn to trust your instincts

You all saw Akame appear above the three of you, saying that there is an emergency meeting you all saw the new base pretty much like the old one

Lubbock: Najenda~ I've finish making the barrier!!

Najenda: Good

Susanoo: I've finished digging the emergency escape tunnel as well

Najenda: That was fast, great work Susanoo

A tick mark appear on Lubbock's head as he glared at Susanoo

Lubbock: Don't think you've won!!

Susanoo: Huh?

You all went to the briefing room

Najenda: We have a new kind of danger beast

[y/n]: What kind?

Najenda: We don't know yet, but what I do know is that they act in pack and some have intelligence, they are strong physically they attacked some parts of the outskirts of the Capital killing people and livestock. At the moment, the Jaegers are on the hunt for them too however their numbers haven't decrease and the casualties have become great...

Mine: This doesn't seemed like a trap given that the Capital is having trouble with them

Najenda: So in the end we are helping the Capital stop them, understand?

[y/n]/Tatsumi: Of Course!!

Chelsea: That's really naive of you all, going in first and exterminating monster. We should leave this to the Jaegers

[y/n]: Chelsea's right...

Tatsumi: What!? You don't me-

[y/n]: On a certain degree, however we are not certain that even if the Jaegers attempt to kill them all but who knows how long will that take, as we speak more innocents are being murdered by them. Even if we are assassins and kill people we do that for a right cause, we are not siding with the Capital we are siding with the people who deserves peace.

Chelsea: Hm... You really know your words [y/n]... Alright then

Tatsumi: Yeah!! He's right...

Susanoo: Tatsumi!!!

Tatsumi: Huh? What is it?

Susanoo: You're fly is open....

Tatsumi: What!?

Lubbock/Leone: Pfft... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Akame: I'm sorry Tatsumi, I noticed it earlier but I thought is was a trend

[y/n]: *Smile* 'Well, there goes the serious atmosphere'

Najenda: This is how we are, I'm sorry if we are any trouble for you Chelsea

Chelsea: That's fine, but I'm worried...

Najenda: Hm?

Chelsea: based from Bulat's record and Sheele's record... The both of them almost died if [y/n] haven't been there... There may be a time when [y/n] will fail to protect one of us

Najenda: Chelsea...

Chelsea: Yes?

Najenda: You don't have to worry about that... [y/n] talked to me the other day and...

Flashback

Najenda was observing Tatsumi trained Eclipse along with Susanoo, you appeared behind her she looked at you

[y/n]: You called me?

Najenda: Yeah...

[y/n]: What's wrong?

Najenda: I'm worried about what you said

[y/n]: Najenda...

Najenda: Still even if you said that you will be "by my side" after the war is over, I still have some doubt that you will disappear from our lives...

[y/n]: I promise you that I will not die, even if I do I will die protecting you.

Najenda: [y/n]!!

She hugged you tight which caught you off guard

Najenda: Don't say things like that I won't allow you to die... Promise me that you will not die protecting us

[y/n]: Najenda I-

Najenda: PROMISE ME!!!

You can hear her sobbing, you pulled away you leaned in and pressed your foreheads together

[y/n]: I promise... I will not die

Najenda: Thank you...

Flashback End

Chelsea: I see *Looks at you* 'You saved your friends from inevitable doom. Maybe... When I am in a pinch, you'll come to my rescue...'

Meanwhile in the Capital

Run: Captain

Esdeath: Those danger beast, according to the minister's report they were once humans

Run: I wonder...

Esdeath: Turning humans into danger beast, which means that the culprit must be an imperial arms user

Run: There is a possibility that those danger beasts are part of the doctor's experiment, after he disappeared they started appearing

Esdeath: Do you have any proof?

Run: We examined his lab it was quite plain, when he's doing experiment it was oddly quiet so I assume that he has another secret lab. Maybe those are what he was holding escaped into the open or it could be someone irrelevant and uses an imperial arm but that is too much of a coincidence. He was following [y/n], he might've run into the enemy and tried to capture them instead he was killed

Esdeath: it seems like that man might've been gone further than we thought

Run: If it were his experiment they might be limited, so this problem should resolve itself eventually

Esdeath: That doesn't solve the problem.... Did those things escape on their own? Or did someone release them?

Run: Understood... I shall investigate this further

Esdeath: I'm counting on you... This could be a deep rooted problem

Run: Yes ma'am... Off topic Captain, it seems rare for you to be admiring flowers

Esdeath: Ah, yes... These flowers if you rub them on a wound the pain intensifies pretty great for light torture

Run: I'll keep that in mind

Timeskip

You search the mountains alone without your mask, you just brought Kiku Ichimonji and Kusanagi, you've had to hide your zanpakuto in a scroll

[y/n]: I don't see anything that might resemble what our target is... Or anything alive... I wonder if they sleep during the night

Meanwhile

Esdeath is on night patrol flying while searching for anything that moves

Esdeath: Despite on night patrol, here I am admiring the moonlight this isn't like me *close eyes* 'The reason I've become this strange is because *flashback of you smiling* it's your fault [y/n]'

Her train of thought was interrupted by a shadow

Esdeath: 'Someone's Shadow? The Danger beast?' *Smile* 'If it is, it's rather unlucky I was just rather in a bad mood'

She dropped

Back to you

[y/n]: ...!!! 'Something's coming!!'

You looked behind you and someone dropped

[y/n]: Huh?

The smoke cleared to reveal Esdeath

Esdeath: You'll have to deal with me, I've been planning on using a new torture meth- *blush* eh? [y/n]?

[y/n]: *Wide eyed* Esdeath? 'Why is she here!? I didn't predict she could fall from the sky!! What should I do?'

She looked to the side and the both of you saw the danger beast

[y/n]: 'The hell!? Now they come out!?

You thought that they could distract her, but with a blink of an eye they were sliced instantly, your eyes went wide

[y/n]: 'They were killed in an instant... She's strong'

One danger beast was barely alive reach out to her, she glared at it and stomped on it's forehead

Esdeath: Don't get in my way!!!

she looked at you and smiled with a huge blush on her face

Esdeath: So this isn't a dream~ I've looked forward to the day we'd be finally reunited, [y/n]~

[y/n]: 'I wish it was a dream... Why not put that thing out of it's misery

She hugged you from behind and you can hear her sniff you

Esdeath: This is undoubtedly [y/n]'s scent, you're the real thing. How dare you run away? I was lonely

[y/n]: W-Why are you here?

Esdeath: I have been exterminating danger beasts harassing the Capital lately. What are you doing here

[y/n]: 'Oh no she's suspicious of me, I have to answer carefully' Um... Before that do you mind doing something about this position?

Esdeath: No

[y/n]: When we're this close I can't concentrate

Esdeath: I won't let you run again

[y/n]: It's to test my skill... I've heard that a lot of danger beast roam this area

Esdeath: Then you're here to fight them too. Well? Have you joined the revolutionary army?

[y/n]: No, not yet. But I haven't change my mind, I was just training here to become a warrior

She grasp your shoulder and examine you

Esdeath: I see... Your physique has become more pronounced and you have leveled up *pat your head* You have done well in this short amount of time, for sure you will become a lot stronger... The danger beasts here have all been exterminated they were annoying but...

She gave you a full on hug while you blush

Esdeath: Thanks to them I was able to find you, this can only be destiny

You both sense a presence of an unknown person

Esdeath: There are a surpring number that you pitted against us... Show yourself if not, then I will not hesitate to attack

The man appeared

???: As expected from the Capital's strongest, I thought I hid pretty well. Still, to encounter you out here I guess playtime is over

Esdeath: It seems that you know why these danger beasts appears... I shall escort you to the torture room

???: I'm not into that kink and ultimately, I'll have you clean up a big toy *Shows an imperial arm* Imperial Arm Shambala... Activate

Flames surrounded the both of you, and in an instant you both saw you were in a beach

[y/n]: 'What is this!?' Esdeath, will you hurt me?

Esdeath: [y/n]... *Blush* To think you have such a fetish, just as I thought we are relly meant for each other

[y/n] That's not what I meant!! Because of that guy this must be some hallucination so if we feel physical pain we might wake up!!

Esdeath: Alright...

You close your eyes and prepare yourself for the pain but it never came but a soft sensation on your lips your eyes went wide realizing that Esdeath kissed you when she pulled away leaving you a blushing mess

Esdeath: The sensation is too real, so it wasn't an illusion...

So this is real...

You...

And Esdeath...

On an Island...

Together...

Alone...

George Takei: Oh my~

a/n: SHUT UP TAKEI!! *clear throught* Okay sorry it took too long to update this book, I've been rewatching the series...
