None laid the two swords on the ground and walked over to Aaron, seeing what happened. He knew that Aaron wasn't dead, but that hole in his chest wasn't really the most appealing thing to look at. None kicked Aaron's body, checking to see if he'd react, but nothing happened. None put his hand against Aaron's neck, checking to see if there was a pulse, but there was none. "Imagine having blood coming from you, and there's no pulse to be found. Aaron, you are unique in more ways than one, and it scares the hell out of me." None sighed before walking over to Clair, who had been knocked unconscious by the man. At least he was kind enough not to hurt her. None picked her up, the black and pink corruption slowly disappearing. He may be a monster, but it didn't mean he was a despicable person. He had his own thoughts and feeling on things, just like a human, and he was currently possessing one.
"Clair...this all started when you were in trouble, and I'm not going to let anything happen to you. Because of you, I met Crystet, Aaron, and None. You were the key to starting all of this, and you'll be the key to ending it." Seph stated, holding Clair tight. He wasn't usually the protective type. "I've known you for less than a day, a few hours even, but you're someone I need to protect. You'll be the key to achieving peace between monsters and humans, and that's something I want." He continued before flinching back at the sound of metal leaving the ground. He turned around, only to see the white-haired man standing once more, holding both his katana and Seph's sword. "You should've gone for my head. Now your life is mine, Hero!" He yelled, rushing towards them. None and Seph didn't have time to react, so they just turned around, trying to protect Clair, not thinking of the option to lay her on the ground. They waited for the sword to slice them, but Seph looked behind him, only to see the man trying to attack him, but his sword kept bouncing off his skin, the sound of metal hitting metal coming from Seph. "What the fuck?!" The man screamed, trying to hit him harder and harder, but failing. "What the fuck are you?! Swords are meant to cut through skin!"
"I've been altered, you could say. Your attacks would have worked on me three hours ago, but not now. None, I want you to take full control." Seph stated, closing his eyes, as None covered his body, becoming a perfect covering of Steven, all of his features copied to the outside. "Now you have to deal with me by myself, and unfortunately for you, I'm more than enough to deal with you in your current state. It's time to enact a plan Aaron had in his head. Something he called 'Termination'." None smiled, pulling a name out of his back pocket. It was something that HE had made while fighting, and he was just giving credit to Aaron. "Now, let's start." He stated, his body becoming completely black, but there was no sign of pink for corruption. He was trying out something new. He sped forward, and the white-haired man had just enough time to block his grab, using his sword to stop him from grasping his neck. None used this to his advantage and grabbed onto the blade's edge as he swung his body over, using his own weight to his advantage, kicking the man on the head using his heel. He was going to make him regret even starting this fight.
None then used the man's head as a stepping stool as he prised the katana from his hand, jumping off of it, sending him straight into the ground, as None went up into the air, holding the blade of the sword in his hand as if it was a bar. He let go of the sword, only to grab it by the handle as he was falling, charging the blade with mana, causing it to glow brightly. None watched as the man rolled out of the way instinctively as he fell to the ground, the sword piercing the earth like a knife through butter, but this was what None wanted. The blade stabbed the ground, and the man escaped the sword, creating a large bolt of mana which shot towards the man, who had no time to react as he was still rolling out of the way from the first attack, so the shot of mana hit him like a freight train.
The man went flying into a building, breaking through the walls and landing on the ground, a large gash opened on his chest. "You...fucking...maniac..." He whispered hoarsely, his throat injured from the impacts he had suffered. "This isn't over!"
"Oh, but it is. You played your cards wrong, and you're on the wrong side of the fight. If you were just on our side, you wouldn't be like this. This is your fault for trying to attack us, or it could be our fault for interrupting you, but I prefer to think that we stopped you from killing more people. Although, I'm surprised nobody else has shown up yet. Maybe they're just too afraid to poke their heads out for fear of losing them." None stated, pointing the katana blade towards the white-haired man, the tip of the sword almost hitting his neck.
"This will not be the last time you'll hear from me, monster. I've got the power of gods on my side, and they will not be so easily forgiving of your misdeeds!" He yelled, losing his voice at the very end before a cloud of smoke surrounded them, letting the man escape the edge of the katana as he ran out of the destroyed building. He jumped over the city wall, leaving the others there, wondering what the hell had just gone on.
Aaron was left in his own mind, his unconscious body laying on the ground, and there was only one thought going around his head.
