TW: slight mentions of blood
Dusk had fallen, you and Heizou were constantly on the look out for any abnormalities.
The two of your reached the entrance to Chinju Forest. 'Stay on guard, alright?' He whispered to you. You nodded and discreetly grabbed the handle of your sword. Your heart was beating so hard you could practically hear it.
The two of you crept through the glowing forest. It felt like you were walking forever. That was until you saw a blurred figure near a sakura tree. Looking around, you noticed it was this very tree in which Hueng Atiro died. It all clicked together.
A hollow wind flew by your head, whipping hair into your face. 'Thank you for coming. I'm glad you received my letter.' A menacing voice echoed over the silence. You tightened your grip on your sword, stopping in your tracks. 'Just tell us what's goi-' Heizou tried to bargain, before the voice butted in. 'You do not understand.' The voice sounded feminine. As they turned to face the two of you, the glow from the foliage lit up their face. Dark purple hair, wrapped in a tight bun with half falling down, dark eyes which looked almost abyssal. They took a step forward, letting light onto their skin. They wore an open kimono, dark green in colour. 'You ruined my brothers life.' Their voice wavered slightly. They kept a straight posture, and your saw a katana in their hand. 'You two managed to ruin his life, and get away with it? My brother isn't even accepted by the Divine Priestess anymore. Look what you've done.' Their voice got louder the more they spoke. They must be linked to Yubitso Kagami - the one responsible for Hueng Atiro's murder.
'That man ruined our life. He handed us in on suspicion of bearing a vision. It was completely dignified.' They shouted, waving around their Katana. 'I have to live with the burden that my own brother is rotting away in prison for something which was justified. You will never know how that feels. Never.' You didn't dare speak, cautious over what would happen if you did. 'This is for him. I, Yubitso Kamara, I will get revenge.' They walked closer to you. You readied yourself by pulling out your sword, Heizou taking out his catalyst. 'Don't do this.' You said, trying to negotiate with them. 'DO NOT TELL ME WHAT I CAN AND CANT DO.' They shouted, bringing up their sword.
Your reflexes came in your favour and your swords clashed together. They were strong, but there were two of you against them. Heizou punched them out of the way. You didn't want to hurt them, they were practically justified, but they definitely seemed a threat.
They turned their focus into Heizou. They went to slash him with their Katana, but you managed to block the hit with your blade. Shooting a bolt of lightning from your sword, they jolted back and returned their concentration back into you. You took a hit and stumbled backwards. It wasn't harsh, and you managed to bounce back.
'Yubitso Kamara, there is nothing we can do. Both sides are justif-'
'Keep that fucking name out of your mouth.' They knocked you onto your back, and directed a hit for Heizou. All you saw was a spark of red.Your vision became blurred and you felt a rush of adrenaline. Heizou was on the floor, his hand clutching his side. 'This bitch..' You muttered before wielding your sword around her. You sliced her leg, enough to draw blood. 'You're meant to be an officer of the law, this is a public offence.' They spat, lunging at you.
You knocked them back by using your electro energy, sending them flying. You looked to your right and saw Heizou panting on the floor.
Running over you felt tears in your eyes. You hovered over him, grabbing his face as your knees sat over each side of his waist. You looked down and saw his hand over a gash on his side. Tears fell. 'H-Heiz..zou.. look at me.' You wiped his face, getting rid of some excess blood. He looked up and stared at your eyes, a smirk on his face. 'T-this would have been.. really hot if i w-wasn't nearly dying..' He spoke, making you blush and look away. 'Y-Y/n..watch out-' A blade came just past your head. As you looked up, you saw Heizou's hand wrapped around the Katana, bleeding. You picked up your sword and swung backwards, hitting Kamara off. As you stood up, you saw Heizou staring at you, a spark had returned in his eyes.The fight didn't last long after that. With Heizou in mind, all you saw was red. As you were about to slash Yubitso, a voice echoes behind you. 'Detective Y/L/N, please, lower your wrath.' A noble voice spoke. You didn't turn around. A hand rested on your shoulder as you fell to your knees. At the very least, you were exhausted. 'Seize them.' The voice commanded. An army of guards dragged away Yubitso Kamara. 'Y/n..it's alright...' Heizou muttered. At least he's safe.
Your sword fell out of your grasp and you saw Kamisato Ayato kneel down infront of you. 'It's sorted now. Please, allow us to bring you to the medical centre.' He held out a hand. You were hesitant. This was a crime. Your job is on the line.
You felt a hand in your shoulder once again. It felt safer than the previous one. You looked up and saw Heizou, a piece of his shirt tied in a tourniquet. 'Y/n..it's alright.' Tears pricked your eyes. You had let down that wall once more.
