"did you come back here knowing I'll be here, or was it purely coincidence?" Hiro asked Anbu.
"get your head out your ass. Not everything about you." Anbu replied.
Hiro chuckled as he looked around at so many dragons staring him down.
Flakes walked out of the castle, looking around. "Where did everyone go." A demon fell from the sky and landed in front of him. It looked up and ran toward Flakes.
Flakes stared at it, confused. He grabbed it by the neck and lifted it.
"What the hell are you." Flakes said, disgusted.
He tried to contract it, but it didn't work, so he threw it to the ground and stomped it out, walking away after looking for his friends.
Anbu ran toward Hiro, ready to swing his sword. Hiro also moved his sword up, and it met with Anbu's. The two stood there.
"those bruises on your back, is it from the Hirata head or your time as a Ranker."
Anbu completely ignored him and backed up as dragons came down at Hiro. Hiro jumped up and dodged many of the dragons as beast animals also appeared to attack the dragons.
Anbu ran back toward Hiro, hurling punches at him. Hiro grabbed his fist and kicked him back. He stared at Anbu, still having his foot in the air.
"My power is almost entirely back. Did you expect to defeat me so quickly?
Anbu put his hand to his face and laughed "losers like you never have to work for anything. It just naturally appears, as I sweated my ass off for two years, you sat and waited, yet I am not above you."
"life isn't fair people have to learn that the hard way. You learned this when Dr. Understand was killed." Hiro tilted his head and looked at Anbu, "but lemme ask you this based on what I know. You've seen many people die, yet this specific person's death is what set you off. Why is that."
Well, I'll tell you since you'll die soon."
Hiro chuckled as he listened.
"Being a Hirata isn't easy, especially after being a sole survivor coming to the real world when I was trapped in my darkness and had no hope he showed up into my life.
"Hi, what's your name," Ray said.
Anbu looked at the kid standing before him. They looked to be the same age.
"It's Anbu." He answered.
Ray had a huge smile and grabbed his arm. "You're just like me, aren't you," he said.
Anbu was confused, but Ray told him to follow him as he ran off.
"where are we going," Anbu asked as he ran after him.
"come on, just follow me." Ray expressed.
They finally arrived at the top of a cliff, looking down at the sunset and the region.
"Sometimes, whenever I'm sad, I come here and pretend I'm a superhero looking over my people I thought I was alone in his world, but we crossed paths. Which leads me to believe there are more of us."
"By us, do you mean Specials?" Anbu uttered.
Ray looked at him, confused. "Specials? You know what? I like it."
"Also, my clan was full of Specials," Anbu spoke again.
'Was?" what happened." Ray said.
"I don't know. A man appeared and offered my parents to buy me off them, and when they refused, he killed everyone but me." Anbu stated.
"Your parents must have loved you." Ray smiled.
Anbu looked down, touching the scars on his hand, then looked back toward ray. " Yeah, I guess they did." He said with a smile.
Anbu looked at Hiro. "I guess Dr. Unders- no, I mean Ray is the only person I truly consider a friend.
Carson continued to move forward, wondering when he'll cross paths with someone.
Dachi stepped forward, and someone stood before him.
"Who are you," Dachi said.
"My name is Milo. What's it to you."
Zenkai and Vannox made it to Feronia and looked around for kazuha, who was nowhere to be found.
Kuzan continued his walk as Sin appeared beside him.
"We have been quiet for a long time. When is it we start moving."
"have you heard of a group named Hostel Sin?" Kuzan asked him.
"No, I haven't." Sin responded.
"well, it's a group that recently formed filled with runaway specials who came together, and they don't seem to be any ordinary thugs either."
"So, what do you want me to kill all of them," Sin asked.
"Now, why would you do that. They are bad people, and we aren't heroes. A Ranker is bound to come to handle them soon."
Sin stopped, and Kuzan looked at him. "You know who and Anbu are fighting right now, right." Sin asked.
"That would be correct," Kuzan answered.
"Now, lemme ask you this, who do you think will come out on top." Sin said with a smile.
Kuzan looked to the sky and thought.
"The one who never falls vs. The one who always gets back up." Kuzan then thought for a moment. "Well, it's obvious Hiro will win, and this will be the last Anbu stand, but I do say that Hiro won't walk out unscathed Anbu has built up anger for two years. He's just waiting to release it.
