On the surface of the wrecked ship, Malos and Server carried the pods holding the two red-headed women while Dromarch and Nia followed behind them. The white-haired Gormotti was looking at the ground, many different emotions running through her head as she had just witnessed Jin killing both Akito and Rex right before her eyes. She didn't understand why he'd do such a thing to two innocent boys. It felt so wrong to her and left a heavy bitter taste in her mouth. Dromarch looked to his Driver and was about to say something, but Malos quickly cut him off.
Malos: "Nia. End them."
Nia: "E-End? Like, what?"
Malos: "The price for their lives have already been paid in full." At that point, it was clear what he was hinting towards. "Now that we have finally obtained both Aegises, the fewer living souls know about it, the better."
The white-haired female looked around at the multiple Salvengers that risked their own lives to do this job for them, her feline ears twitching and flattening as she felt sick to her stomach.
Nia: "I-I can't do that! These people haven't done anything wrong!" She protested. Malos simply stopped in his tracks and didn't look back at her.
Malos: "I don't understand you. Now, now. Have you forgotten why you came here to begin with, Nia?" he questioned while turning to look at the petite female, who slightly stumbled back.
Nia: "N-No, but..."
Malos: "Oh, for the love of..." He growled, annoyed before he began approaching her. "Fine. I'll handle it myself." he said, walking past them while Nia just looked on, completely taken aback by his willingness to just commit manslaughter. However, before he could even begin, the capsules he and Server were holding suddenly burst in flames. "W-What the...!?"
Both of them chucked the capsules away as they burned, the two redheaded females inside of them remaining still for a moment before suddenly, their bodies became engulfed in flames and shot out like rockets. They landed on a higher section of the ship, their eyes now open and their core crystals, which were not each missing a segment in the center shaped like an X, glowed their respective colors, green and magenta brightly. Just then, a pillar of flames burst from the ground as a hole in the floor opened up, with the revived Akito and Rex leaping out, holding their respective Aegis in their hands. The moment her eyes landed on them, Nia looked on in pure disbelief.
Nia: "Akito!? Rex!?" While Rex was panting, Akito stood there, a hard glare on his face as his eyes slightly glanced towards the white-haired female, then back at Malos and Jin.
Malos: "You...! And those swords. Can't be!"
Akito: "Oh but it can be, asshole." He said, gripping Pyra's Aegis tightly as he twirled it around his wrist. As for Rex, he pointed Noira's Aegis straight towards the group, with a beyond angry expression on his face.
Rex: "It's kinda low to stab a man in the back, you bloody psychopath!" He looked towards his friend, who merely smirked. The two looked back to their respective partners.
Rex: "Noira! Pyra!"
Pyra/Noira: "Here!/Yo!"
Akito: "Cover us!" The two redheads gave a small smirk.
Pyra/Noira: "Got it!/Understood!"
>Chapter 5: Aegis Awakening<
Upon seeing the two men he killed rise up from the dead and challenge him, Jin reached for his sword, only for Malos to suddenly step up to the challenge.
Malos: "Jin. Leave 'em to me." Rex made the first move, charging straight towards the black-haired male as he made a downward slash, but he quickly used his own sword and blocked the attack before knocking Rex back. "Sorry kid. I can't let the likes of you or that other guy claims their power for yourselves. This is as far as it goes."
