There were multiple electric sparks and water particles flying everywhere... Victor and Megumi were clashing weapons throughout the entire room, their speed on an equal term. Every single clash resulted in massive Senzai release that'd cause explosive shockwaves in the room. Moreover, it was getting tough for Victor to outmaneuver Megumi who had complete resistance to his attacks and there was less space for Victor to fly around.
On the other hand, lied an unconscious Sora still against the wall, knocked out from the hit Megumi gave him.
"Huh, where am I?", Sora questions as his eyes open up, laying on a wooden floor.
Sora sat up and he saw his surroundings... It was a traditional Japanese home... Maybe a bit too traditional. Too old... Too nostalgic...
Sora slid the doors of his house and it opened up to the view of a compound with many other houses like as if it was an old military base.
"Wait... Is this?", Sora thinks to himself as he's baffled about the current situation he's in. It reminds him of an old memory but he can't seem the remember it.
"Good Morning, my Lord ... You're up early.", a woman in traditional kimono, who was behind Sora says as she yawns.
She hugs Sora from the behind
"What is your today's plan?", the woman asked calmly still clinging to Sora's back.
Sora still couldn't understand who this woman was as everything seemed fuzzy. The woman had long blond hair with a few bangs on her forehead, she wore a pink kimono, matching one with Sora.
"Uh, who are you?", Sora asks.
The woman looks surprised at first but then smirks.
"Oh, my Lord, I'm not interested in your funny games hehehe.", the woman snickers and replies with a smirk.
"But I am your subservient Wife, I'll tell you. My name is Akane Makizushi. Is that enough? I'm tired of games.", Akane replies now hugging Sora from the front, burying her head in his chest, her forehead barely reaching Sora's middle of his chest.
"Wait... Akane? Wait... Am I back? Or was that all a dream?", Sora thinks to himself as he looks pretty flabbergasted at the revelation.
"But... I feel like this is just a memory that my mind is playing on me...", Sora thinks again to himself as Akane looks up and pouts.
"My Lord !?", Akane snaps her fingers Infront of Sora's face and he immediately comes back to his senses.
"Uh ... Akane... Please hand me my Haori...", Sora says as he continues looking out at the Makizushi Compound.
Akane nods and bows and she goes back in the house to find a red Haori that Sora would wear over his Kimono.
A few minutes later, Akane brings out Sora's iconic Red Haori: a Haori that is a testament to the Makizushi Clan's innate ability, Abyssal Flames Art.
"Thanks... Akane...", Sora says as he wears his Haori and goes back looking at the compound.
Akane stands next to Sora as she holds his hand and presses it abit.
"Hey... Um, Lord Sora... I have a question...", Akane asks as she looks at Sora.
"Hm? What is it Akane?", Sora responds as he looks back at her.
"Will you ever find your perfect match?", Akane asks.
Sora seems confused but suddenly remembers.
"Yeah, I will... I want to have the battle of battles with someone who can compete with me... Unfortunately there was someone a century earlier called Tsukuyomi... I guess I'll grow old and have no one to fight with... It's just everyone is weak in my time when I was born...", Sora says in a depressed tone as he looks down on the floor.
"Hm. What about that woman's offer? I remember her talking about sealing you and making you immortal and unseal you when the time is right... Will you risk that, Lord Sora?", Akane asks as she holds Sora's kimono from his chest.
Sora sighs.
"I don't know... Maybe... I just don't trust that Shimo Woman... What if she destroys my body?", Sora asks as he holds Akane's hand warmly.
"Nah... I don't think you're that weak, Lord Sora... You're very strong... She won't be able to harm you ...", Akane says as she makes patterns on Sora's chest with her fingers.
Sora gently smiles and looks back at the Makizushi Clan's compound.
Suddenly Sora realised his mind was replaying an old memory and he immediately took control asking one weird question.
"Akane... What should I do if I ever feel weak?", Sora asks as he sits down.
"Weak? That's not in your vocabulary, Lord Sora. But I guess if you're feeling down or something... Just remember, I'll always be there wishing for you from heaven... And maybe if you accept who you are, the strongest ever then you won't feel weak ever again heh.", Akane says as she leans over as she moves her fingers through Sora's hairs.
"Huh... "Accept who I am?"... Is that all I need ?", Sora asks as he raises his arm towards the rising sun on the horizon and grasps the sun in his hands.
"Mhm.", Akane responds as she looks to the horizon herself too.
"Just remember, you were born as the strongest man in this universe, my Lord... I wish that you have the best fight ever...", Akane continues as she holds Sora's hand .
Suddenly everything turns white as Sora is now free falling through the skies, his body limp, his eyes closed. Sora then thinks to himself with a smile:
"I just wanted to feel the thirst for an actual battle... Nobody was able to give me that... Akane, I promise... I will avenge your passing by becoming the greatest warrior ever..."
Sora awakens from his knock out as he steps out of the hole and brushes the dirt off his kimono and stares up at Megumi andVivtor fighting.
Victor's entire persona was now completely different as he was exhausted and desperate, he had taken a beating and was battered, his coat ripped off with only his white shirt underneath that was ragged.
On the other hand, Megumi too was on the brink of her limit, consistently panting as she too was getting exhausted.
Sora then grins and suddenly Senzai starts exploding violently from his body.
"AHAHAHAHAHA! THIS FEELING! ITS BEEN WELL TOO LONG!", Sora laughs as a red flame aura erupts around him.
Megumi and Victor both look back at Sora with a more surprised look.
"What the... How's it possible for him to gain his power by himself?! He doesn't even have the hidden Senzai Orbs that seal his power around the world!", Victor thinks to himself as he is starting to look desperate.
"This guy... I might need some back up.", Megumi says as she gets into a defensive stance using her stick.
"Heh... This isn't all of my power, maybe 1/5th... But this should be more than enough to do this...", Sora laughs sinisterly as he keeps charging up his Senzai Outputting Capabilities.
It is said that Senzai Arts is the bane strength of Senzai itself. However, there is an extension to a Senzai Art itself which is called an Awakening of a Senzai Art, granting masters of the technique unfathomably stronger abilities in their Arts, plus increasing Senzai Output tenfold.
At this point, the master of Abyssal Flames, Sora Makizushi, was now sparking the awakening of his Art after over a thousand years... The strongest man in history awakens...
"Senzai Art Awakening:
Heavenly Abyssal Flames!"
Sora's eyes flash white as the flames suddenly become calmer and less violent while leaking no Senzai as waste. The flames turn pure white and white flames give Sora a form of armour.
Sora opens his eyes and they were calmer and had a light red toned colour.
Megumi and Victor look at Sora and are well, terrified of the sight of the glorious light infront of them.
"Did... He awaken his Senzai Art?! How?!", Victor tells as he keeps staring at Sora with pure shock.
"Right... If a user of a Senzai Art faces severe emotional distress and if the cards play right, the Senzai Art Awakens itself... Shit... The odds were quite high for this one.", Megumi thinks to herself in high regard for Sora as she gets in position to fight Sora.
"Petrifying Water Art:
Lethal Water Shot!"
Megumi launches Water Shot, a fast but dense stream of Water that contains lethal properties that are amplified by Senzai to harm the opponent, at Sora. Afterall, Water beats fire.
Sora stands firm at the incoming attack and without moving a muscle suddenly the water evaporates from the fire around Sora.
Megumi gets shocked from the situation and Victor starts snickering.
Victor laughs at a puzzled Megumi and says:
"HAAHAHAHA! I'LL SHOW YOU HOW THE PROS DO IT!"
"Thunder Electrokinesis:
Lightning Bolt Net"
Victor shoots multiple fast lightning speed bolts that when they approach Sora starts forming a net and then suddenly it caves Sora within, giving no room for escape.
"Hahaha. No room for escape now, Sora? These lightning bolts far surpasses 100,000 Amperes of Current! Three times more powerful than lightning itself! and either you move an inch and you'll get shocked or I can do this!", Victor yells in a crazed manner as he claps his hands and a loud thunder is heard as the cage gets smaller and touches Sora's body.
However, the lightning bolts were burning up? How was that possible. The lightning cage turned black and burned up, turned into dust.
Victor looks at what happened and feels oddly embarrassed as this was his trump card, a powerful attack and an attack that took alot out of him.
Megumi then speaks:
"You fool, don't you realise? Sora can burn anything he comes in contact with. This is what an Awakened Technique is! He can burn anything that is made up of Senzai almost instantly!"
Victor looks back at Megumi and nods as they both prepare to fight off against Sora. Seemingly, sweating from death right infront of them.
