"Who are you?" Arsène asked
"The name's Toshiro." He said
With that said, he charged toward and attacked Arsène. Arsène response by blocking his electric katana with the Inferno. When Toshiro recovered, he dashed at Arsène and unleashed a flurry of attacks but Arsène was able to block them all. After trading swings with their blades, they finally collided and pushed for dominance. But Arsène had enough of this pointless skirmish. After he pushed him back he suddenly burst into flames. Toshiro gasped in shock.
"You're done." Arsène said scarily. At least to Maria and Toshiro. But in order to not destroy his house, he launched Toshiro outside and followed. Maria then ran outside to watch the battle. Toshiro might've been crouching in pain, but he wasn't going down easily. But what he and Maria didn't expect was for Arsène to explode, incinerating everything (except his mansion, he tried to save some trees, and Maria) within a 50km radius!
...urgh..." Toshiro groaned. He was covered in 3rd degree burns, and clutching his chest in pain. But he didn't realise that Arsène was going easy on his power. Arsène landed in front of him, ready to finish him off. Toshiro looked into his eyes for what seemed like the last time. But he saw their colour. Red.
"Brother!?" He said. Arsène stopped his attack.
"Hmm?" He said skeptically.
"Arsène! Is it really you?" Toshiro asked hopefully.
"Should I know you?" Arsène asked.
"No. I was the only one to escape. But you didn't notice. I've been wanting to destroy that same cursed tribe for years. With you here now, we could do it together." Toshiro proposed.
"Mmmm... Fine. If you are who you claim to be, I need proof." Arsène said, still not believing that he has a remaining family member. Meanwhile, Maria was standing to the side, wondering what happened to Arsène.
"... What was that?" She said to herself.
Meanwhile, Toshiro had finished explaining his story to Arsène , finally convincing him.
"Ok then. You'll need this." Arsène said
Suddenly, lightning surrounded Toshiro and enters his body. He has been blessed with the power of Lightning.
"I feel... different..." Toshiro said, looking at his hand.
"You get used to it." Arsène replied.
"Now, let's get hunting. We need to stop the Shadow Tribe fast. Maria, come with us." Arsène said.
"O-ok, Arsène." Maria replied shyly.
And with that said and done, the trio went into the city to hunt down the Shadow Tribe.A/N- Sorry that this is a bit short. Two new characters are being introduced in the next part. Here's the design for Toshiro.
