Chapter 17 - The True Man's Demise

"Hikaru Sato! Fight me you dumbass!"

He shouts with his full force that immediately caught the attention of the creature. His hair were messier than ever, dusted and creased suit with some hints of blood, wounds that would take weeks to heal, bruised hands while holding a few stick poles.

"Yay! Congratulations, Toby-kun. Clap* Clap*", Hina praised as if to mock his iconic call.

"The hell!?", his response. "Just shut up already and prepare the way." "Yes ,yes."

Hina took a step to the side leaving Toby in front of the entity.

"I still can't believe how Hikaru turned into something like this. But, all of those questions aside, using 'reset' would be the ideal choice to make this things up," he's having an internal monologue.

"Ugh! Arghhh!!"

"There it is again," he said after the signalling of the entity, "I'm sure he's currently in pain. Suffering all those things that he aren't supposed to." He starts to say things as if he somehow experienced to be in that undesired situation.

"I-ugh... I'm not- d-done... Yet!", said by someone from distance who were in excruciating situation.

"Mr... Kou? How much life does that guy have!? Is he a cat?", Toby noticed the teacher slightly moving on his own and starts to regain his stance.

"If I can't defeat that thing head on, then I'll just take the [Defect] with me. Hahaha!"

Toby noticed his intentions. "Crap! If that guy interferes, this would be no good. I need to carry it out before that happens."

He lift his feet forward and starts to approach the creature who were also beginning its charge. "This is all or nothing!", he yelled.

While catching his breath, he makes a huge leap to conquer his advantage against the monster.

"Haaaah! I need to hurry up."

The entity brings its first blow, a full blown swing with its upper right limb aiming directly at Toby that would surely knock him to the floor if fulfilled.

"Sh*t! Here it comes!", his last words before the first strike.

*boom *creaking

A huge sound echoed around the whole school that immediately caught the attention of teachers and students. Well, the students in that building noticed the circumstances before hand and some of them have already evacuated the building.

"H-haaaa!... That sh*t was damn close!" The rubbles start to settle and there appeared Toby lying on the floor. "I would surely repeat if I dropped late than few milliseconds."

There marks on his side a few small crater that would probably start the collapsion process.

"I need to back off now!", he said while doing that. He reach a quite safe ground, about 5 meters away from the entity with the help of quite few rolls.

"Hahahaha! I'll settle this for real!", the teacher said after reconciling and starting move forward.

"D-... Dy- ING!"

The entity also turned its way towards Toby instead to the yapping teacher.

Let me do some quick analysis regarding the square area of the rooftop for those who wonders how the f*ck can they fight in such a crooked place. The building has a lenght of 50 meters and a width of 20 meters so you could say that 1000 m² would be the land area of the building making it possible for them to move around the rooftop that easily.

"Crap! I don't have the time to deal with both of those two at the same time, he uttered.

"Amamiya! Now!", he yelled while giving Hina the go-signal for what they are planning to do. The dark creature and the beated up teacher charge forward at enormous speed that would only take 3 seconds for them to reach Toby.

When suddenly...

*bang

A huge flash of light covered the whole area, hindering the vision of those who's in there.

"Nice! Amamiya!", Toby shouted saying that their plan worked. In those dire moments, "Now, I just need to tackle that monster down the roof to finish this up," he said.

All of a sudden, after the flashbang flicks, there saw Toby something he doesn't expect.

"H-hikaru?!", he said after seeing an exposed part of the shadow. A bright red hair and emerald specked eyes appeared while the dark sheath were being blown away by the intense light.

Apparently, despite the bright sunlight, Hina decided to throw some kind of a flashbang to distract the enemies in sight and then carry out the plan.

"Arghhh! Ugh! Arghhhhh!"

The monster released another huge wailing as if it is in pain. "I'm sure that's Hikaru in there!"

Toby rushed into the scene, splitting from their intended plan and try to help Hikaru on his will.

"He's probably alive right now! I need to act quick or else things will be too late!"

The white light starts to faze out and the dark matter slowly envelops the corpse of Hikaru back. Toby rushed through that place and immediately grabs the creature on its waist, how bold he is to commit such a thing!

"Hikaru! Hikaru! Get back here, You idiot!" After grabbing the shadow through his palms, he starts to dig as if to unveil what's within.

"Sh*t! My hands feels stiff!", he said after he felt the sting in his hands upon contacting the dark matter. In all of his efforts, he went far to see unto the abyss but the abyss gaze back into him, falling him into despair.

"Arghhhhh!" The creature again released out huge scream that maybe it's the last one.

"Sh*t! I need to back up! Hikaru! Wake up!" In his desperation, he letted out those words. A full blown swing, ready to smack him dead at any moment.

"Now, Toby-kun! Do it!", yelled out by Hina to the side.

"Arghhhhhhhh!!!"

With all his strength, he pushed the creature back off to the end of the rooftop, leading down the ground, like that of sumo wrestling style.

"This is my final choice!!", his last words.

*creak *bang

The bar fell off.

"Ah... Now I can feel it. The gushing of gentle breeze blowing through my hair as approach the ground. This time, I'll die for sure...

"But now... Finally... I freed him from suffering."
