Chereads / Psychic Hunter: Shiro / Chapter 38 - The Worst Deciver

Chapter 38 - The Worst Deciver

-Inside the mind of Akira

Akira woke up in a world of only darkness. In that place where he was meant to be alone, the Kyubi in it's full size sat in front of him.

"The third great moment in history has come. The master which I have been waiting to free me of this pain is you. I will gladly lend you my powers, wether it be to destroy this world or to save it, but if you can withstand or not, will be entirely up to you."

The Kyubi suddenly thrusted one of its claws into Akiras chest, and great power flowed through, however it destroyed his very being.

In the real world, the divine power kept flowing until Akiras vessel finally blew up. A blast of a golden energy was emitted, blowing everyone back.

From that light a single being emerged.

It was Akira, but he was somehow different. He was no longer human. He didn't just seal the Kyubi in him, but he somehow absorbed and devoured it.

His once black hair had turned white with red ends, as two fox ears grew from his head. He had grown taller and muscular, and the tired eyes he once had were now refreshed.

His fingernails had grown to be more beast like, and nine blazing tails emerged from his back.

Only one word could describe him now,

Divine.

Although only Aiko and Hoshiko could sense it, the divine power he emitted gave off a certain pressure which everyone felt. A suffocating feeling. The presence of a god.

Akira looked at Shiro.

"Is it time for round 3?"

He took one step towards Shiro before disappearing. He then reappeared behind him, and was about to tear Shiro's head from his body.

Aiko, who was the only one who could somewhat percive Akiras movements, swung her sword at his neck, but the weapon bounced right off it.

"Your an emmittter but you fight like an enhancer?"

He grabbed Aiko by the neck, before throwing her into the distance.

"Shiro, I told you I would take everything away from you like you did to me. I'll kill everyone here, before I kill you."

"AKIRA- WAIT!"

He jumped away before Shiro's words could even reach him.

Shiro was about to follow him, but he heared Hoshikos voice reach out to him.

"Don't go."

Hoshiko saw the fear in her eyes. Her eyes which allowed her to see the truth saw that Akira really meant what he said. But she also saw the true nature of what he had become. It scared her.

Shiro seeing her distressed state, smiled.

"It will be alright. I'm here."

He extended his hand out to her which she gladly accepted. She slowly walked up to Shiro as she tried to take Shiro's hand.

"When I first met you, my eyes showed me you were a demon, but that ended up not being true at all. Mabye it's because of depending on these eyes, that I've been pushing people away my whole life. If I hadn't been so blinded by them, then maybe I would've noticed Kotsukis trickery sooner."

Enji finally emerged from the portal while carrying the unconscious Arashi on her shoulder. She saw what was happening between Hoshiko and Shiro, and ended dragging Obi back through who was eating popcorn.

Hoshiko took Shiro's hand, and felt his cheek with her other, which made Shiro turn pink.

"Shiro, I love you."

The second she uttered those words, a gun shot echoed. Shiros' face turned into that of horror as a bullet ran through the side of Hoshikos head.

Before she could hit the ground, Shiro quickly caught her.

The perpetrator of this incident was Mr. Repent who had been absent up till now.

Half his body was stuck in the pit that Aiko had created. His once pale skin was now burnt black, but in one hand he held a gun.

"IF IT WASN'T FOR THE VOID CUBE, THAT ATTACK WOULD'VE KILLED ME! ALTHOUGH IM STILL GOING TO DIE! BEFORE I GO, I'M TAKING ONE OF YOU WITH ME!"

Obi fired a single shot which hit Mr. Repent right in the head. But it was far too late to fix the damage which had been caused.

Shiro put his hand over the bullet wound, in an attempt to fix it.

"My ability worked on Akira somehow, so it should definitely work on you too right?"

Shiro focused everything into healing Hoshiko, but there was nothing. She was already dead.

"Not again, not again, NOT AGAIN, WAKE UP! PLEASE DON'T GO! PLEASE!"

He begged for Hoshiko to wake up, all to no avail. Tears fell from his eyes as he remembered what happened to Yukiko.

The cycle had repeated itself once more. Nothing had changed. Nothing.

Enji walked up to Shiro, to try and salvage this somewhat.

"I know you were very close to her, but we need to get out of here immediately. Unless the captain uses her blessing she will definitely lose, but she can't do that while we are here."

A wave of killing intent suddenly blinked past Enji. It scared her to the point that she unconsciously prepared to draw her katana.

"What was that? Shiro?"

Enji immediately raised her Katana as Shiro smashed his fist right into it. Despite successfully blocking it, Enji was pushed back greatly.

"What are you doing!?"

Shiro somehow felt different. It wasn't that his rage made him go insane, but an entirely different being had taken over his body.

"It's 2018, so it's been 76 years?"

He looked up to the sky, and then the city of Kyoto in the distance. He smiled as he felt the wind for the first time in decades.

"It feels good to be back."

Enji and Obi were a little creeped out by this. Obi then asked the killer question.

"Shiro? Or who are you?"

Shiro taking note of Obi, took a good look at him. It was almost as if he was looking through him.

"I can sense the blood of Dracula within you. But you don't feel like another one of his creations? What the hell happened while I was gone?"

Obi was aware of what Shiro was talking about. The blood that tainted his body was a secret that only he and S.N.A.Ds overseer knew about.

"How the hell do you-"

Shiro moved in front of him, with a speed he had never displayed before.

"A P.E.S armband? Its not the same as the one I used to wear? Is that bitch of an Overseer still in charge?"

Shiro looked up to the sky.

"Why are you asking me? You saw what happened too? Does it matter? I'm back now? Fine."

He appeared to be talking to himself. Such bizzare strength, and his talking habits had Changed too.

"Alright, so where did that run away fox go?"

He felt an explosion of psychic power in the distance somewhere, and prepared to go attack them.

Enji tried to stop him, but a short burst of blood from Shiro's ankles blasted him away.
