Dangerous Encounters Arc Chapter 12: Ground: Bloodstream Pillar v Guillotine

Finally all attention is on Ushio and Hisao. The tension in the air was unbearable to all of the others a part from Ushio. They both stood their in silence. Scared to see who was going to make the first move.

Hisao: Oi kid! Before we fight, tell me about that move you just used.

Ushio: It's called Bloodstream Pillar. The move enables me to use my ground power to turn my arm into the shape of a pillar. It was originally made for close combat but due to some testing I was able to control the range of the attack.

Hisao: Ah! I see you prepared fully for this fight, huh!

Ushio: Yep! I'm going to wipe the floor with you!

Hisao: I see. Well then, don't let me down, boy.

Ushio brings out his watch dagger and makes the first move and goes straight towards Hisao.

Captain Genjiro: I-Idiot!! You're leaving your self open!!!

Hisao: Ha! Have you not learnt any close combat. Now DIE!!!!

Hisao brings out his Blades of Hope to defend against Ushio's attack but to his surprise Ushio put all his might into his swing.

Hisao: Wow! In a short time you've grown some muscle.

Ushio: Are you trying to flatter me?

Hisao: Don't get cocky just because I gave you a compliment, shrimp!

As expected Hisao had enough strength to push Ushio back and swipes his blades across his body. However, Ushio doesn't pay attention to and pushes on forward and swings his dagger in Hisao's direction. Swing. Swing. Swing. The only thing that his dagger clashed with was his blades. Now Hisao pushes back at Ushio and hits him every time. Cuts are already all over Ushio's body but he pays no attention to them.

Hisao: You're not impressing me kid!

Ushio: I'm not here to impress, I'm here to defeat you for the last time!!!!

Hisao: Let's switch up the pace a bit. Blades of Hope: Bullet Blade!!

Suddenly, Hisao's blades where going ten to the dozen and Ushio just couldn't keep up with it. Once again Ushio was covered in cuts with blood gushing out.

Ushio: It feels like last time. Why the hell am I letting myself get hurt like last time.

Hisao: Ah! Looks like your story has just ended little fellow. Goodbye.

Ushio: Shut your fricking mouth!!! You're pissing me OFF!!!!!

Suddenly, Ushio's aura was giving off a different vibe. At that moment, Ushio pulled out his Bloodstream Pillar and at full strength hits Hisao with it. Unexpected, Hisao was sent into the wall and this time coughed up a lot of blood.

Hisao: That was unexpected! You've got me excited now Ushio.

Seiji: What strength!!

Not finishing there, Ushio gets up and goes towards Hisao and puts the pillar on Hisao but he quickly moved. Thanks to his extension of his move he locates Hisao down and swings the pillar. This movement catches his legs and he falls to the floor. Now Ushio uses his ability to control the ground and makes the floor underneath Hisao cave in.

Hisao: What the?

Ushio: It's over Hisao. Give yourself up.

Hisao: Oh yeah! Blades of Hope: Guillotine!

Ushio: Shi-

Hisao's blade moved that fast that Ushio was not anticipating the move. Scared of what to do next, Ushio stood their frozen. Until Captain Genjiro moved himself and Ushio out of the way.

Captain Genjiro: Keep your head in the game, Ushio.

Ushio: Thank you sir.

Hisao: Lucky you.

Ushio: It's time to finish this. Ground: Bloodstream Pillar!!!

Hisao: If you say so. It's time for you to die kid. Blades of Hope: Guillotine!!!

They both get up and start to run towards each other with all their might. As both moves collided together, a forceful energy was heading in everyone's direction. The energy was that strong that no one could stay on their feet. As the energy started to fade, Ushio and Hisao went crashing into a wall.

Seiji: Is...Is it over?

The first one to get up was... Hisao!

Hisao: I'll give the kid some credit *huff* *huff* he exceeded my expectations but in the end he didn't win.

Seiji: Crap! What are we going to do now?!

Captain Genjiro: It's quite alright Flame: Burning Cage!

Suddenly, a cage of fire surrounded Hisao.

Hisao: What the hell?!

Captain Genjiro: I set this up when I moved Ushio out of the way. Now it's over Hisao.

Seiji: It's now OVER!!!

All the tension in the air has finally faded as their is now way that Hisao can get out of the cage. Seiji, Yui and Miyasaki run over to Ushio to check if he is alright.

Seiji: Oi loser can you hear me! 

Ushio: Yeah loud and clear.

Miyasaki: *Tears in her eyes* Look at you your covered in scratches. Thank god your alright!

Yui: Why did you not listen to us? *Sob* I was so scared you would die!

Ushio: Thank you all for worrying but I'm fine.

Letting their feelings taking over, both Miyasaki and Yui fall down and give Ushio a well deserved hug.

Ushio *Blushing* What the hell are you two doing?!

Seiji: Luckly!

Now that the fight is over, all the peace has returned, Amari-Sensei was sent to the hospital and was given treatment and was back in action in a few days. However, it took Ushio a week to recover from the battle as his body is weaker than Amari. Ushio was visited by everyone every day while in the hospital and was awaiting the day for him to be cleared. As for Hisao he was confronted by the commander.

*Somewhere in a prison cell

Hisao: You'll never get away with this Sato.

Commander Sato: I don't know what you are talking about.

Hisao: You do you sick bastard!!

Commander Sato: If anything slips out I'll make sure you die of a painful death.

Hisao What! Like you've actually been experi-

All of a sudden Commander Sato brought out his sword and quickly sliced down the left side of his face causing blood to gush from his eye.

Hisao: AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Commander Sato: Carry on speaking and worse things will happen.

*1 week later

Amari-Sensei: Welcome back Ushio! It's time for me to introduce you to a new member of our group

Ushio: A new member!

Miyasaki: Hi there Ushio!
