Chapter 17 - Kaito's resolve

As they were walking they discovered a wide and spacious room with some wires attached to Akito, at the center lay a huge energy ball emitting a dark aura similar to the one he used to attack

On the other side of the room was a man Kaito client believed he was seeing, it was his very own father who stood before him but he looked more demon-like with horns

"Father... What are you doing here" His voice sounded raspy as he spoke

"That isn't your father, he sold his soul to the devil long ago," Akito said in a weak voice as he lay there with the wires

"What happened to the rest of the gang" Kage spoke and got to the point

"That I don't know," He said before keeping quiet refusing today more

Just then Kaito's father clapped from the other side of the room and came closer until he was standing right in front of them

"Well well don't just ignore me don't you miss your father... Kaito" he said in a caring voice as he stretched his arms out

"I'm not falling for that" Kaito replied sharply at his statement

"You left me and my mother when I was just five and we had no money, my mother suffered a heart attack" His voice sounded around the whole room as he spoke

"Well I had to take care of Akito but," His father said as his eyes strayed towards Akito

"He turned out useless," he said coldly

"Both of you attack now!" He commanded as the both of them got prepared to attack

Kage quickly teleported in front of him and attempted to punch him but the man held his hand and threw him across the room

While Yagami thought he had a change and ran at tremendous speed and aimed to kick him he was also sent flying

While the others were fighting Kaito walked toward Akito feeling the need to talk to him

"Why are you working for the Crimson Lily gang" He stared at akin to with mixed feelings as he waited for an answer

"I simply wanted power" He replied in a low voice not even looking Kaito in the eye

Kaito sighed as he turned his attention back to the fight happening, he saw Kage and Yagami had been created into a pulp

Faith simply shivered beside him starting at their bodies in fear as they didn't get up, Kaito's heart beat hard as he ran to their side

"Kage, Yagami" he stated their bodies but they didn't move an inch

"Faith you can heal them right" His eyes began to well up with tears as he turned to her

"I can't" She nodded her head as she looked into his eyes with a regretful expression

His father kneeled to meet his gaze and stared at him with demonic eyes that emitted an immense killing intent

"They're dead," He said coldly as tears freely flowed down his cheeks

"No Kage, Yagami, I command you to get back up!" his yell resonated through the whole room as a white light emitted from his chest

Kage and Yagami were both covered with white light as their wounds healed quickly and they got up again

"You can rest freely now Kaito we got it from here" Kage wiped Kaito's cheeks and smiled at him

Yagami ran at an even greater speed and landed a heavy blow on the man causing him to stumble a bit

Kage's eyes emitted a red glow which made the man unable to move but in return, Kage bled from his eyes, Yagami seizing the opportunity used his claw and shredded his heart into pieces causing him to collapse on the ground

Kaito ran and embraced both of them in a hug and smiled brightly

After the celebration, they stared at the energy ball at the center of the room knowing destroying it would bring peace to the land
