Chapter 51 - Chapter 49: The Search

"Hakai!" Hachiman howled, flying over a massive park.

Boom!

He sped past the park, changing trajectory mid-air and going to the left.

"It's the last park in Tokyo!" He said to himself in hopes of finding him in the last location.

Zap!

His senses picked on a massive negative energy clash southeast from his view. "What do I do?" He asked himself, stopping in mid-air, looking at the direction of the negative energy.

"Two evil spirits fusing? So bad! " He told himself, as he flew away, in the direction of the remaining park. He hoped to get to Hakai in time to deal with the phantoms.

"Amaterasu-Sama, may I bring you another fill of orange juice?" The old attendant asked Amaterasu. Upset once again because she couldn't spend time with Hakai, the little Amaterasu buried her face into the pillow. "Hmph!" She noised, retaliating to speak to her.

"Amaterasu-Sama, there is no need to anger yourself. He promised to come over whenever he freed his schedule." The old lady beside her spoke with gentleness. "So, promise me to keep his promise and be a good girl." She managed to put her up.

"But, I miss Haki-Kun,"' She said, twirling her small thumbs.

'I understand and don't tell him this. I miss Lord Hakai too." She softly smiled, brightening the mood.

"Really? I won't!" Amaterasu jolted up with excitement. "I love Haki-Kun this much!" She spread her little arms as wide as she could. "You?" She asked the old, tilting her head.

"That's a secret." She smiled, putting her index finger on her nose. "Now, let's go get some fresh juice." She stood up, waiting for Amaterasu to get off the massive bed.

"Okay." She placed her little foot on the ground, struggling to go off the bed.

"Shit, the pressure is just getting stronger," Hachiman noted, looking back. "I should have dealt with it, but what if a phantom does something to him while I fight the others..." He contemplated, speeding up even more.

"Hmm." He grunted, noticing the park's insight.

"Hakai!" He shouted as he entered the park. "Huh?" He said, looking down at a shirtless figure laying flat on his back. "Hakai..." He said in relief, descending onto the ground.

"Shit, Hachiman, God of War is here... Thankfully, I've concealed my signature." A dark figure said to himself. He stood on top of a tree branch, watching Hachiman crouch over Hakai. "Shit, I couldn't make it in time." He said as his body flickered and vanished away.

"Hmm?" Hachiman grunted, staring behind himself at the last spot where the figure stood. "Strange." He said, narrowing his eyes.

"Oi, Hakai, wakey, wakey." He said while lifting him off the ground.

"Oi!"

"I said wake up!" He slapped him across the face.

Jolting from his slumber, Hakai opened his eyes to meet Hachiman's. "Oh, it's you, monkeyface." He closed his eyes again.

"Who other than me were you expecting?" He said in jealousy.

"Maybe someone who doesn't look like a monkey." Hakai taunted him, laughing. Then, he suddenly stopped laughing and coughed.

"Hey, hey. Are you okay?" Hachiman held him a little tighter.

"Hmm, I feel refreshed." He informed Hachiman. "As if I have been reborn." His eyes shimmered.

"Good, let's go." Hachiman stood up with him in his arms.

"Where?" Hakai asked him, his arm dangling.

"Don't even object. My kingdom for now." Hachiman told him as he noticed he was fast asleep again.

'Thank goodness." Hachiman's eyes glittered.

"Huff." he let out a breath of relief.

"One down, two more things to go..." He told himself as his sense kept spiking. Then, an image of Miko's face appeared in his head. Closing his eyes, he leaped up, and his body vanished from where he stood.

***

"What is her condition?" A red armored female knight bulged through the door, asking the condition of Miko from the pink knight.

"Gradually healing. She'll be fine." The pink knight answered her, standing up from the fancy stool.

"Good." She nodded, crossing her arms. "Anyway, we've been summoned by the higher-ups." She said with a bit of worry in her voice.

"ETA and time?" The pink knight asked.

"Theater of Recollection and in twenty minutes." She answered, walking away and throwing her arm back. "Be there sooner."

"Theater of Recollection? We haven't been there in a minute." She walked out of the room, slowly closing the door. Though she put on the star-shaped visor helmet, she couldn't conceal her concern.

Wham!

"Lord Hachiman!" Himari said as she ran towards his side. "What happened?" She asked him while looking over Hakai. Then, noticing that Hachiman seemed a bit urgent, handing her Hakai, she carried him.

"I have to deal with some phantoms for now, and Miko's in trouble, but we'll talk later. For now, look after him for me, will you?" He asked her with a smile.

"Of course, my lord. Please have a safe trip." She bowed with Hakai still in her arms.

"Miko's in trouble?" She asked herself, sweating. A guard walked behind her, opening the third hallway door for her.

Wham!
