Chapter 4: Filler #1



Aaliyah Yamamoto (Ex-shin's mother), donning a police-style work uniform, she flips her hat over her small afro and is ready to jump down to a nearby city where sightings of Angels and feinds have occurred, so said the description of her S rank mission. Her blessing, Purification: She has the ability to take away sin and cleanse anything, person, place, or idea. Aaliyah can also use the items she purified through her life, as they lie in a sacred place where she pulls the items from. She can absorb pure energy to force upon a transformation as well.

(Aaliyah) Dropping down in front of the city, I cave in the earth, sending cracks all across the streets while forcing all to drive their attention towards me. I flip open a notepad with a pen in my other hand, asking questions as I stride through the place. "Angels and Feinds working together...?", I mutter. "Has this ever happened before? Mmm… The city is quite large, if they are in hiding then that'll be a pain sorta." I traverse through the buildings and streets more to see if anything is out of the ordinary. To my right however, something caught my eye. A split in the Earth? One pedestrian walks up close to the hole, sticking her hand out to touch it, and without anyone noticing, an arm goes to grab the woman. "No! Don't touch that hole-!". She didn't even listen. The arm reaches out and grips her throat, contorting her body and pulling her into the hole. Civilians scream in terror, and from the hole, out crawls a fiend.

This one's energy is sinful, very sinful. "Well, well, well…they sent a guard, here? Ha! Just to be used as bait I bet, there's no way you could possibly beat me.". "They sent me here to kill you and your little angel buddy you have around here. Now if you surrender and tell me where that angel is, I'll be sure to make your death quick.". Suddenly the fiend rushes in with a kick that I dodge with ease as he moves past me. He comes back in and misses a few jabs into an overhead while driving the both of us out the city. "At this rate, you're just gonna die a depressing death…Step it up, wouldya?".

I sigh, kicking it in his chest through a mountain, following up by running through the mountain myself and palming the fiends face, dragging him back through the same mountain before throwing him into the stratosphere. "Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd...SPLAT! Death by falling huh? Not the worst way to go." As I begin to take a step to walk, a hand grabs my ankle. The dead fiend's brains go back in its skull, the cracks in the skull regenerate as the rest of the body goes back to full health again and he smiles ear to ear. "Happy to see me?". He slams me over and over. I cock back my leg and strike the arm holding me, kicking the arm completely off, freeing myself before standing up straight in stance.

Without a second to spare, the fiend regenerates it's arm but wasn't fast enough to react to my body blow. I punch twice on his ribs, he tries a front kick but I grip his leg with one hand and perform the same crushing blow to his stomach, ripping the leg off, sending him skipping across the rock. I run past the being, his leg regenerates, but again he wasn't fast enough to react to my high kick hitting his jaw that forces him up over the mountain, setting up perfectly for me to chuck him down into the city as he crashes through a row of buildings, destroying them entirely. Not a second last while I zoom towards the fiend and hold it by his throat, dangling the limp body. "This'll hold you from regenerating again." I summon a white, golden gauntlet in my free hand and rip the fiend's intestines out and shove them in his throat. The gauntlet disappears and a spear replaces its spot, allowing me to stab the mouth against the wall.

"And for the final touch…" I mutter, before something airborne comes crashing in front of me. The wings flow effortlessly as the wind smacks them upright, letting the gold shine from her feathers. Her slim body perks up as she looks at me then back and the fiend. An Angel. This one seems to be way more powerful than that fiend I was handling. "Kubu! Don't tell me you were getting handled by a successor…Well no matter! I will keep her busy for you if you don't mind~". The angel speaks. Her voice making the fiend, Kubu's ear twitch. "Don't even bother." Kubu sighs, his energy rising as he regenerates once more and pulls the spear out with no effort. "We can kill this one together, Mona. I have a few bones to pick outta her anyways.". "Shit-", both the angel and fiend rushes in and split up two different ways, chasing me across the city. The angel, Mona, gets close enough for attacking. She tries to sweep me but I jump in the air, summon a spear, and throw it at her. She jumps herself and dodges the spear, actually catching it to use against me. I weave one slice, spin from another, and kick the spear out of Mona's hand.

Me still in the air, Mona lands, placing her palm on the ground. The Earth rumbles. "An earthquake?" I thought. But I was wrong. Emerging out of earth's crust, a huge tusk of bone that takes me through the clouds, and to the exosphere, almost reaching space. "Aaliyah! Aaliyah!". I hear in my ear through my earpiece. I press my earbud annoyingly. "What is it Eskavor? Don't you see that I'm in the middle of a mission?!" "Yeah, and according to the satellite camera, you're standing on top of a small continent-sized elephant tusk. Do you know how many people died?!? And what about the damage?". "We have elder Oshima and his kids for the damage. About the people though…uhhhh…I'll figure it out. And besides, this city was located on a rouge continent. Now tell Yuri to close her portal and stop you from watching me, I have a job to do…". Finally both beings made it to the top. "And I guess I'm clocking in now…with a bit more seriousness this time.". I immediately focus on Mona as Kubu is too slow for my concern. Mona's body protrudes spike-like bones from her arms to act as armblades. I lean back from a downwards slice, get my hook blooked, almost get cut from a side swipe but I dodge and jab her forehead.

She rapidly swings her arms to get a wound on me, however, I stay in stance, rolling, maneuvering, and weaving, just trying to find an opening. "Got you…". Ready to gut punch the angel, I cock my fist back. Unfortunately, the fiend gets in my way and I am forced to get him out of the picture temporarily and take some slice damage. I grab his arm and elbow it off of him while turning him around and ripping off the other arm and kicking him off the tusk. I see Mona's armblades visibly getting sharper as she drags them through the bone floor, walking up to me. I summon myself, a pair of white and golden gauntlets and battle boots of the same design. "I think it's time to show you why I am number one when it comes to fighting hand to hand outta all of the National Guards." I grin. "Do your worst…". "Sigh, if you wish to die that quickly then so be it.". I block her initial stab. Mona spins behind me for another stab but I dempsey roll under it and face her, still rolling.

She goes for a double stab which I block, a side kick that gets redirected, then she digs her blade through the floor and rips it from the inside of her arm, multiplying and spreading across the bone floor. For each bone sword on the ground, out rose bone-made clones. "What a pain in my ass…clones.". They all run in towards me ready to stab, cut, and slice me apart. I rush down the continent-sized tusk. "Guess I can't show her why I'm number one…", I mutter under my breath. Jumping off the tusk half-way down, the hundreds of angels follow me. It rains Mona as they all look like a tsunami coming down to flood the land. I turn my body while still in the air, putting away the gauntlets and having a rocket launcher appear in hand with the design being the same as the gauntlets. With a pull on the trigger, I fire a scatter rocket at the clones and *BOOM* they all explode, body parts flying everywhere. ¨That problem is done for now. Just need to see if the other one is dead or not.¨

The launcher leaves my hands and a katana replaces it as I land down to the dirt floor. ¨Damn, this thing is huge. I'ma snap a few pictures for my son.¨. Moments later while snapping my 37th picture and sending it to Ex-shin, my son something from inside the tusk shake. Breaking out of the bone like a cocoon, Mona, in supersize form, looks directly down at me, raising her foot to crush me. "I can never catch a break…"

SLAM! The foot crushes Aaliyah. Forming a footprint the size of an island, Aaliyah, who is holding the bottom of the foot, pushes it upward using her raw strength and causes Mona to become unbalanced. Aaliyah unsheathes her katana with an upward slash full of exerted energy, splitting and clearing the skies across half the Earth. Cutting deep into the ground, stretching thousands of miles to the other side of the globe. Completely cleaving the angel, Mona in half as both of her halfs disintegrate to white particles then dissipates into nothing.

"One down. Maybe one to go. I haven't seen him since I kicked him off-huh? Well ain't that something." The fiend's corpse lay there motionless. As I get close, he regenerates again, but disappears from my sight as soon as he gets done. A sudden back blow sends me barreling to another area code. I try to get my balance straight, but I'm handed a right hook to my jaw. Followed by a palm strike which I barely blocked, a chop to my shoulder, a headbutt that knocks me off balance, then a combo of punches to a neck grab of repeated slams. Between one of the slams, I put the fiend into an armbar and summon a giant weight on my back, driving both the fiend and I underground into a massive illuminated cave where I snap his arm in half before letting go. Didn't even let me catch my breath the fiend did. He runs on all fours and slices my arm with his nails. Next were my legs, my back, my torso, and my face. It keeps circling around me.

In a single second, I summon a glowing white orb and drop it. On impact, its shell crack and exposes light, until…BOOM. A pure energy bomb.

A bomb that explodes at a force and sends hardened energy flying across a wide area to stab or slice opponents. Aaliyah is also able to absorb the energy that the bomb shoots out. And she does so as her mini afro turns a color of white, her pupils disappear, and all her wounds heal instantly.

The explosion sent the fiend straight up out the cave, to the surface again. The spikes of energy slowing him down efficiently while he watches Aaliyah Yamamoto step up from the ground under sloth-like in speed, forcing chills to go down Kubu's figure. Sadly for him, in his point of view, he was still looking at Aaliyah in the distance before the back of his head gets palmed by said woman as she speaks in an eerie echoed voice.

"Props too you..making me transform like this. Just for you, I'll kill right after I send my son these pictures of this moment.". I kneel down with his head still in my palm and repeatedly shoves his head to the ground, cracking the pavement each time. In between slams, snapping pictures for Ex-shin. With one last slam, I stand back up and hold the fiend's limp body in the air. "Ready for an aerial beam strike? …Me too! …In 3…2…1".

Crashing down on to both Aaliyah and Kubu, a beam of pure energy, the same size as the continent-sized tusk of bone, disintegrating kubu's body into the air, vegetating the land heavily and forming a super-massive forest to be spotted by the sun during sunset. Aaliyah is now the founder of a brand new landmark named: King's Peak, as she looks over the ocean view.

"Hey Yuri. Open a portal for me..mission complete."
