Chapter 18 - Chapter 18

Eren says, "This is going to be an intense fight between Maikeru and Shamueru in the semifinals." Luke nods his head and says, "Do you think Maikeru will be alright because you saw what he did. It was brutal." Eren looked at Luke with a serious face and said, "Luke can you please have a little more faith into Maikeru. This isn't the same Maikeru who get beaten up every single time, no. This one is different. He has grown throughout these days so please have faith in him." Luke was stunned by what Eren said and then Luke said, "You sound like a father Eren." Eren smiled and said, "I bet right now he is just relaxing in the spectators room." At the spectators room, I was standing still. All I could hear was my thoughts saying, "Let's see who has the strongest darkness, Shamueru." While I was relaxing I sensed two people running towards me. Then I heard my name. The voice was Lyon and when I opened my eyes I saw Lyon and Sana standing in front of me. I was curious why they were here so I asked, "What do you guy want?" Then Lyon says "Are you going to watch Sana's fight because she's up next?" Then I said, "Sure, I'll watch the fight and Sana I wish you the best of luck." Sana smiles and says, "Thanks, I'll give it everything I have!" I started walking away because I sensed Shamueru close by. I guess he is trying to let me know when to come over there. I found a door by the looks of it in here. I opened the door and walked through it, and then closed it behind me. It was me and Shamueru alone in here and Shamueru says, "See I told you I will make it through with ease." I brought out a big sigh and said, "After the Sana vs Zarako and Lyon vs Jean fight, the next fight is it going to be Me vs You." Shamueru grabbed his sword and pointed it right at me saying, "I hope you're prepared because I know we don't want to repeat what happen last time" I smiled replying, "Bring it on you bastard, I've been waiting to beat the shit out of you since you whoop my ass last time and I am no longer a weakling so now let see who has the strongest darkness." Our aura covered the room in pitch black, then someone came through the room so we left instantly. While I was walking back, I saw lyon at the window looking at the arena. I said, "I guess I wasn't late after all." Lyon replied, "Yup, wish Sana the best of luck!"

 Sana makes it to the arena. The announcer then shouts, "What a match between Shamueru and Athena! Now we go onto the next match of round 2!" The crowd begins to go crazy. The announcer shouts, "On my left side of the arena, it is Sana!" Sana comes out waving her hands in the air. The crowd goes wild and a random guy rips his shirt off and shouts, "I love you, Sana!" The announcer continues, "And on my right side of the arena, it is Zarako!" The crowd then screams even louder once they see Zarako enter the arena. Sana then asks herself, "Why are they more energetic to see him than me? Is it because he is that strong?" Zarako proceeds to enter with his hands in his pockets. The two of them then meet in the middle. Sana looks at Zarako and sees tattoos all over his body. Sana then asks, "What is with all the tattoos?" Zarako then smirks and says, "Oh you will find out soon enough." The portal then opens and the two of them walk through it. Once they made it through the other side, they took distance from each other. The announcer then shouts, "Get the battle over with already! 3…2…1…Fight!"

Zarako then takes off his shirt revealing the rest of his tattoos. Sana then takes out her dual cleavers. Sana then senses his power rising. Zarako's tattoos then begin to glow green. Sana then shouts, "What is this power?!" Zarako then shouts, "This is Overdrive!" Sana then begins to spin her dual cleavers getting ready for what might happen. Zarako then dashes towards Sana. Sana sees Zarako and swings her cleaver straight at him. Zarako ducks under the cleaver and uppercuts Sana right in the chin. Sana gets launched into the air. Sana grabs a hold of her chin and says her in head, "His power is like a power boost. He is going to pay for what he did-" Zarako appears behind Sana fisting both of her ears, crushing them. Sana then lets out a scream and energy bursts. Zarako gets pushed away and says, "Is that all you got commander? I expected way more from you." Zarako then launches toward Sana and lands a devious blow to her hip. Sana gets launched through two mountains. Sana stops herself from getting flung midflight. Sana then says, "Hunter's Sight." Her movement then increases, her eyes changed colors, and she can now weak points. She then sees Zarako in the distance stretching his arms. Sana then gets mad and begins to spin her cleavers way faster than before. Sana then rushes Zarako. Zarako then shrugs his shoulders back and says, "You are rushing me? Ha, what a mistake." Zarako then begins to charge a punch. As the two then got close, Zarako throws his punch fully charged at Sana. Sana then dodges the punch and says, "I now see your weak point!" Sana then swings her cleaver towards Zarako's right shoulder. The blades pierce Zarako's shoulder. Sana then slices pieces of Zarako's right shoulder.

Zarako then begins to scream and lets out an energy burst. Zarako then puts his hand on the wound and says, "Damn that hurt, she's not playing around now, is she. Looks like I won't have to hold back after all." The tattoos then begin to glow and Zarako shouts, "Gattling Gun!" Multiple punches coming from Zarako launch toward Sana. Sana then shouts, "Tribal Dance!" The two then begin to clash and fight out. Sana gets hit by multiple punches. Sana then says in her head, "I can see all of the punches but there are too many to dodge. The best I can do is avoid critical damage and tank the rest." Zarako then says in his head, "I'm landing decent blows but, the wound is making it hard for me to keep on driving." Zarako then ends the attack with a devastating sidekick. Sana gets launched. Sana then changes her rotation, lands her feet on the ground, and launches back at Zarako. Sana then slices a piece of Zarako's thigh. The speed Sana launched herself was fast to the point where Zarako couldn't react. Zarako then falls to one knee. Zarako then begins to smile and says, "The pain is nothing new to me, I've been trained to handle injuries like this." Zarako then begins to rise and stand up. The tattoos then begin to turn from green to blue. He then shouts, "Stage 2: OverFlow!" Some of the wounds begin to heal but not all of them. Sana then dashes toward Zarako and shouts, "Warriors Battle Cry!" Her cleavers then begin to glow. Sana then swings her cleavers, then Zarako steps aside and dodges. The blade lets out a big explosion. Smoke from the explosion begins to rise slowly. Sana then goes on a rampage and continues to swing her cleavers trying to hit Zarako. Multiple explosions were being made and soon an equator was created. Zarako then grabs the chain of the cleavers, looked at Sana, and says, "What's wrong, mad? He then yanks the cleavers from Sana's grasp and stabs her through the stomach with them. Sana's eyes widen. She then took multiple steps back and begins to cough up blood. Zarako approaches Sana slowly and says, "You were never capable of beating me Sana, now it's your time to sit and watch the rest of this tournament in the bleachers." Zarako then kicks the cleavers through her stomach and Sana falls backward. Sana then closes her eyes and mutters in her head, "This… this is not where it ends just yet!" Sana then gets flashbacks of her training and Lyon. Zarako then begins to walk away from Sana. A big energy burst appears from where Sana was and launches Zarako into the air. Zarako then puts his hands up, covering his eyes from the bright light the energy burst is giving off. The energy burst then begins to clear up and Zarako sees Sana in an incomplete transformation. 

Zarako then says, "What is that?" Sana replies, "Your ticket to the bleachers." In less than a second, Sana was behind Zarako. Zarako tries to turn around but then Sana grabs him by the face and punches him in the gut. Zarako was then out of breath and couldn't move. Sana then shouts, "Wild Boar Axe Kick!" Sana then throws a painful axe kick and launches Zarako toward the ground. As soon as Zarako almost touches the ground, Sana was already under him and does a straight kick upwards and catches him. Zarako then spits out blood. Sana then slams him onto the ground. Zarako then does a backflip up and shouts, "Hyper Clap!" A big gush of wind begins to blow Sana back. Zarako leaps toward Sana and shouts, "Gattling Gun!" Multiple punches then begin to launch toward Sana. Sana then shouts, "Hunter Sight!" Sana was able to dodge all of the punches. Sana then grabs both of Zarako's arms and then knees him in the chin. Zarako then blacks out with blood spilling out of his mouth. Sana then says, "Time to end this." Sana then slices off Zarako's left arm and shouts, "Hunting Desire!" A spiritual beast then was summoned and rushes towards Zarako plumbing him into the ground.

Zarako slowly then begins to open his eyes and sees that his left arm was gone. He then fully woke up and realizes the position he was in now. He then shouts, "No, no, no! I can't lose! Not when I made it this far! My whole life, the weak and only the strongest are the ones capable of surviving! I won't become a weak bastard just like the rest of you!" Red aura then begins to burst and Sana took a leap back. Zarako's tattoos then begin to flash blue. An energy burst appears and Zarako's tattoos turned red. Sana didn't expect a third stage so she went into a defensive stance. Zarako then begins to laugh and says, "This is also new to me too. Our battle and my rage helped me unlock a new stage of my power. This shall be known as OverKill!" The bleeding and wounds on Zarako's body then begin to heal. The wound from Zarako's missing left arm closes. Zarako then says, well now it is time to dance. Zarako goes into an offensive battle stance with a huge red energy burst bursting through the area. Sana then gets her defensive stance ready. Zarako then rushes Sana and shouts, "Annhilation Fist!" Sana then swings and slams her cleavers against the punch. A big bang appeared and launched the two aside. Zarako then smiles and begins to rush Sana. Sana then shouts, "Hunter's Passion!" A spiritual clone of Sana was made. The clone then does coordinated attacks with Zarako. The three begin to fight and clash. Zarako throws his elbow up to block Sana and throws a sidekick through the clone's chest killing it. Zarako then rechambers the sidekick and throws a roundhouse to Sana. Sana then blocks the roundhouse and goes for a leg sweep. Zarako jumps dodging the leg sweep and dropkicks Sana. Sana lets out a groan and shouts, "Tribal Dance!" Sana then does a special fighting dance. Zarako begins to struggle to counter the attack. Zarako then says in his head, "If I had my left arm this would be much easier but no matter, time to end this." Zarako then lets out an energetic shout pushing Sana away. Zarako then shouts, Time to finish this battle once and for all!" A red aura then begins to burst through Zarako. Sana then begins to charge and bursts into energy. The two took a distance from each other. Zarako then shouts, "Calamity Dynamic Kick!" Sana then shouts, "Kyatchas Purge!" Sana begins to spin her cleavers. Zarako's foot turned burning red. The two rushed each other. Sana dodges the kick by curving to the side and dashes through Zarako. Dozens of strikes appear out of thin air striking down Zarako until he was on his knees. Zarako was then in base form with scars and cuts. Sana then turns around and points her cleavers toward Zarako. The cleaver begins to glow. Sana rushes towards Zarako, puts her foot on top of him, and crushes him towards the ground. 

Sana then looks Zarako dead in the eyes and says, "Do you yield?" Zarako says, "I yield." A portal appears and medics come out rushing toward Zarako to help aid him. Sana then leaves her transformation and walks through the portal. The announcer then shouts, "The winner is Sana!"
