"Vincent Sparks, alias of Kyuga Mazda. He is expecting you soon. From now on, you are His and my property. You cannot resist or disobey, or else your Soul will be confiscated." This hooded figure, the same figure that put an end of Thousand Leaves: Megami Duvet and Ghost Assassin: Evto Mugen. As Vincent was trying hard to not bleed to death, the hooded figure approached Heios. The two locked eyes for a few seconds before he spoke. "Vincent Sparks is now property of mine. And don't try to fight me, because you will end worse than this pathetic, squirming waste of air he so lovely calls himself the King of Destruction." "..." Heios stayed silent, and was observing the person carefully. "Who are you? How did you know his name-" "I know everything, I hear everything. I keep walking, and I never stop." The hooded figure grabbed Vincent by the head, and proceeded to drag him across the ground. He didn't make any noise, he just let himself be dragged. "Hey, HEY! You can't just do this!" Heios yelled out, walking towards the hooded figure before breaking into a jog to stop them. "I warned you, Heios Kroos." "HEIOS! NO!" Aria yelled, running to catch up to him. The hooded figure turned around, disappearing from plain sight. It was as if they teleported, and Heios couldn't see them. His eyes couldn't catch up to them, and he was left in a state of confusion. "Heios!" Jasper yelled. "What the hell was- UG-" And Heios too, had a hole in his stomach. Just like Vincent, the hole was made from a fist that was piercing through his stomach, and he too was left to bleed out on the ground. Aria ran to catch up to them, but she was too late. The hooded figure made sure the wound wasn't fatal. Which was one of the reasons why Jasper wasn't crying out like Aria did. And that's why he was the first one to notice something different about the hooded figure. They had no Soul-Residue, no Soul-Aura, and no Soul-Energy. Nothing was being emitted. It was as if this person had no Soul. It isn't impossible, since there are millions of people in the galaxy without a Soul, but everyone has Soul-Energy. But this person... has no Soul nor Soul-Energy. THAT is impossible. Even without a Soul, you have Soul-Energy. "Hey!" Jasper called out. "What the fuck are you?" The hooded figure looked at Jasper. "Nobody." And having said that, they were walking away. Aria squatted next to Heios, holding his body up. Noticing he was okay, she was relieved. "... That looks bad..." "I know... but it's like they... purposefully missed my vitals..." Heios said, coughing. "The ship, guys! Come on!" Jasper said, having hoisted Satono onto his shoulder, looking back at Aria and Heios. Heios was trying to stand up, but couldn't, so Aria decided to help him up. "The canyon is unstable, we need to go, now!" "... But Kyu-" "Forget about him already, Aria! He was our target too!" "Tch..." Aria turned to look at the ship. She was angry, confused. She felt betrayed and hurt, and she was about to explode. But she had no other choice but to leave. The hooded figure was dragging Vincent, leaving the others behind. Vincent was left to his own thoughts as he was dragged. He was trying to figure out what was happening, and who this person was. But he couldn't come up with anything. His head was spinning, and he couldn't think straight. Uprising of Kytron failed to bring Vincent in, or kill him. They had to retreat to their headquarters and wait for the next orders of Lord Veyron. = = = "Dark Intrinium's getting closer at you and you're not even thinking about fighting them?" "Why do you so persist on killing Vincent Sparks when Nextellar are protected and supported by Dark Intrinium?" "Why not fight them? Why bully lone wolves?" "You're stupid. You're detestable. You will listen, you deviant dog." "You're nothing short of a murderer. A killer, a mercenary programmed to bow down when ordered." "From all your Thousand Leaves that get plucked off, you are no different." "Maybe we should all run awa
