Reiji walks in as a bright light appears. Reiji stands there looking at a being in a bright white coat fur around the neck arms and hem of his jacket. A golden claw emblazoned on the back as he looks away. Reiji instantly saw a resemblance, but thought nothing of it. The man stood up white hair with a bandana tied around his head. Reiji recognizes it as it sinks in as to who stands before him.
[???] so you finally recognize me huh?
Reiji gulps "that's impossible."
[???] I am a memory as well merely one of a happier time. he tosses a old pair of gloves. they land at Reiji's feet causing a memory to unfold.
a little boy rushes up hugging his father a bunch of faces smiling as he does so.
[???] look at him he looks so much like you sensei.
[???] Yeah but his determination rivals his mother.
A voice echoes from the door behind the man.
[???] now now Don't make such a fuss over him.
A very beautiful woman steps through the sliding door. the nan turns to reply.
[???] why not he will be a great man one day. I can feel it.
The woman puffs out her cheeks then hits the man.
[???] I said Don't spoil him.
The man laughs loudly.
[???] he is our son and I believe in him.
the boy looks up now seeing that it is young reiji. his father hands him a pair of gloves identical to the ones the mysterious man threw at him.
[???] My son you should always use your strength to protect what you hols dear. don't lose yourself to chaos
The man smiles as the memory fades.
Lilith is now besides a crying reiji.
I didn't think this place would show me you.
[???] well we died rather suddenly didn't we.
Reiji nods the man continues rummaging.
he pulls out his toy with swords in each hand.
"Tell me do you remember this?"
Reiji flashes back again.
A kid jumps down from a playset.
[???] Hey reiji did you see the latest episode of dark hero mighty blade yesterday?
Little Reiji nods.
[???] well I got a toy from it this morning look.
The boy holds up a toy that looks like aman in a white jacket. it has a gold claw emblazoned on it. A black sword in one hand. a white one in the other.
Little reiji stands up acting like he was swinging a sword.
" I am the dark hero I will uphold justice by destroying evil"
The memory fades as little reiji and the little boy fight in a fake fight.
Reiji stands then wields both swords swinging them like the memory. A smile appears on the man's face.
He turns and a man looking like reiji stands there. his outfit like the dark hero he wanted to be.
The dark hero tosses a knife like the one that killed him. lilith sees this stepping in front of reiji. guarding him. Reiji pushes her aside lightly catching the knife.
The dark hero smiles "So it appears your ready to truly defend yourself. even against the you who achieved your ideal."
Reiji rushes forth. Blades clash one after the other each move from the dark hero Reiji their battle is stalled. Lilith is stunned at thus sight.
Reijis movements have shifted like swords were his true weapon dancing like Orion previously did. they both clash sparks flying.
Reiji smiles "I get it I am you, and you are me"
I must defeat my ideal to pass.
The dark hero reiji puts away his swords. clapping. "Yes yes you truly are me you understand so fast."
Reiji does the same with his swords.
"That was a childish dream. current reality has proven I am not going to be you."
The other reiji manifests a staff.
"Are you sure?"
Reiji nods pulling Lilith in as she transforms into gauntlets.
My past vision versus my future self.
[Writer comment: I am going to refer to the other reiji as dark now.]
Dark spins his staff launching it at the ground caving it in like a anvil on concrete.
[Dark] Don't get hit now.
He does the move again thus time reiji twists his fist inward. Rushing up to dark. dark jumps back smacking down onto reijis guard.
Dark smiles "I am the the Dark hero Reiji.i Will purge you in the name of true justice.
The staff splits open slightly exploding. This sends reiji backwards into the wall.
Blood dripping from his head A wound over he eye. Reiji smiles.
"Ah explosive staff surtr."
Reijis body glows as a Halo appears over himself. His wounds start to close immediately. "now you will use mountains rage"
Dark now glows red smashing the staff around. explosions all around him. his eyes glow red like a feral beast.
Dark rushes reiji while the latter just dodges easily. As the blows raining down upon him That's all he can do, Or so Dark believed as he lost himself to the skill.
Reiji builds up a giant compressed ball of light and air. "I'm sorry dark.. this is where your story ends, and mine truly begins."
Dark smiles as Reiji unleashes the energy right to his heart. the force blows reiji back. a hole appearing in Darks chest.
Dark smiles once again falling to his knees. Blood soaking his outfit and face.
At least the choice was truly ours..in the end.
Reiji has a solemn expression as he responds. "Yeah farewell Dark hero Reiji hashamiya."
Lilith transforms to her human form. she hugs Reiji questioning him. checking on him
A notice appears in Reijis vision.
Dark hero Reiji hashimiya slain. you have come to terms with your existence. The system will now dissapear. basic functionality will be maintained. No more system assistance required. A ball of light leaves Reiji's body floating up through the ceiling.
One floor left and 3 weeks left to get to the school. Reiji stands his face at peace for now. He walks down the steps to the final floor.
