Akito flew back, crashing into a building.

  Gregor fixed his suit, and sighed "I was supposed to keep you alive"

  He stepped forward, cracking the cement under his feet "But you struggle even with that?"

  Akito stood up, wiping blood from his mouth "Is that so?"

  He fixed his glasses, his eyes fixated on the book "I have your book."

  Gregor glared down on him, unimpressed "That little relic.."

  He pressed his legs against the ground, pushing himself forward.

  Akito pressed his hand back, swinging an ice needle at Gregor.

  Gregor pulled his hand forward, waving it towards the shard, his eyes fixed on Akito.

  The shard fell motionless on the ground, shattering as it clashed with the ground.

  Gregor spun around, aiming his leg up.

  Akito's eyes widened, he pulled his hand towards his stomach.

  Gregor pulled his leg back, raising his other leg.

  His leg connected with Akito's guts, a shattering crunch echoed across buildings "Just barely survive this.. boss will be pleased."

  Akito flew in the air, the wind resisting his body's motion.

  Gregor pulled his hand forward, catching Akito by the hair "You know, I've always been distasteful towards habel users."

  Akito tensed up, covering his face with ice.

  Gregor swung Akito in the air, bashing his body against a nearby wall.

  The collision caused a big shockwave, leaving a bloody mark on the building.

  Gregor twisted his hand, throwing Akito onto the ground.

  Akito's body dragged across the dirt, leaving a bloody trail.

  Gregor exhaled "Every single time I see one of you habel wielders.."

  He turned around, his legs kicking the dirt "There is this urge.. to prove."

  He walked towards a wooden house, pressing his hand against its wall.

  He tightened his fist, his fingers digging into the wood.

  The wood shattered, a chunk getting caught in Gregor's hand.

  Akito pressed his hands against the ground, coughing blood.

  His glasses fell off his face, clunking against the ground.

  Gregor turned back, facing Akito "Gifts are such a meaningless creation."

  His steps echoed around the battlefield, marks of his footprints left as he walked "You know, this fight basically proves it."

  He abruptly stopped in front of Akito, his fingers tightening around the chunk of wood "You are worthless."

  Gregor grit his teeth, pulling his hand back.

  He swung the wood forward, his eyebrows furrowed.

  Akito smirked, blood trickling from his mouth "All... of this speech, and you're wide open."

  He flung his arm upwards, his eyes widened.

  He pointed a finger at Gregor, electricity sparkling from the tip of his finger.

  A spark of lightning pierced the wood, hitting Gregor in the face.

  Gregor stumbled backwards, clutching his face.

  The wood chunk clattered on the ground, a hole left in the middle of it.

  Gregor scoffed as he faced Akito "Dirty play."

  His eyes gaze down on Akito. Akito huffed, kicking his feet up "Hah.. you really thought I'm already done for?"

  His legs swung around, barely keeping him standing.

  He wiped blood from his mouth, exhaling relentlessly "Well then, will you continue staring?"

  He bent down towards the wooden chunk, his eyes locked on Gregor "And you know, that 'relic' of yours.."

  Akito presses his hand against the wood, swinging it in the air "It simply mimics my habel."

  Akito aimed his hand up, a trickle of blood dropping from his mouth.

  He shot ice needles out of his finger, piercing the wood with a barrage of ice needles.

  The needles storm towards Gregor, Akito presses his hand forward, shooting more towards his sides.

  Gregor bit his lips, crushing the wood with his hands.

  The wood flattened, needles in the wood piercing through Gregor's arm.

  The goat demi human bit his lips, his arm bleeding "Foolish games!"

  He leaped off the ground, causing a loud shockwave.

  His eyes widened as his feet flew towards Akito.

  A mark on the ground was left where Akito stood.

  Gregor smashed his legs into the floor, a big trail left behind him.

  Akito slid under Gregor, his finger pointed up.

  He formed a rock out of thin air, the rock shooting towards Gregor.

  It stormed through the air, hitting Gregor directly in the guts.

  Gregor fell backwards, gritting his teeth.

  His bleeding hand was placed tight on his stomach.

  Gregor's golden eyes gained a glint of purple "Stop!"

  Akito stretched his hands, a prideful grin on his face "As long as people trust me, I can use their habels. Why should I stop now?"

  Akito approached Gregor, his hand stretched backwards.

  He pulled his hand back, creating an ice lance in his hand.

  He pressed his hand against the wind, throwing the lance towards Gregor.

  The ice lance pierced through the air, the wind wildly rustling around it.

  Gregor stood still, glaring at the storming ice lance "It seems like I underestimated you."

  The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

  He caught the ice lance in an instant, crushing it under his grip.

  Akito's grin froze "That's.. new."

  sweat started to drip, his eyes awkwardly pressed right "What's taking him so long..?"

  Gregor cracked his bleeding arm, twisting it.

  The hand stopped bleeding, the gaping holes closing.

  He walked forward, his eyes locked on Akito.

  In the blink of an eye, he disappeared, the wind pressing wildly against Akito.

  Gregor's fist launched towards Akito, the air resisting his fist.

  Gregor swiped his hand, scratching Akito's cheek.

  Gregor flipped back, coughing as his back connects with the ground "impossible!"

  Akito exhaled "It seems like this is no longer a one on one."

  He wiped blood off his face, above him, a new figure pressed on his shoulder.

  The being jumps infront of Akito, bloody marks across his body "You alright there twin?"

  He sighed "Glad I made it in time."

  Akuya pulled his hands up, wind slashing the air.

  Gregor raised his hand, the wind fading against his touch "Two.."

  He exhaled heavily "Two of them..!"

  He stopped in place, his working hand pointed at the twins.

  Akito turned to Akuya, ignoring Gregor "Where is Risu?"

  Akuya sighed clutching his forehead "He didn't want to go."

  He pointed at Gregor "Plus, we weren't sure if you were really fighting or simply tripped."

  Akito raised an eyebrow "Wha- you think I'd be this bloody from a trip?"

  Akuya shrugged, and turned to Gregor "Well then, lets start!"

  Akuya dashed forward, throwing his hands up.

  Gusts of wind storm around Gregor, the air disrupting his vision.

  Akito threw ice shards around, twisting them along the wind.

  Gregor walked forward, letting the shards connect with his body.

  Blood pours out, the air scattering.

  Gregor stomped his foot on the ground, piles of bricks flinging in the air.

  The twins get flung against the debris on their feet.

  Gregor leaped on a patch of dirt, appearing in front of Akuya.

  Akuya blew wind under his own feet, pushing himself backwards.

  Gregor swung forward, his feet scratching the dirt in place of Akuya.

  Akito shot a lightning bolt, the electricity charging right at Gregor.

  Gregor fell back, his body flopping on the floor.

  His body pressed on the ground, his eyes shrunk.

  He pulled his hand up, slamming it hand against the ground "I cannot.."

  He slammed his hand once more, cracks spreading on the floor "I cannot..!"

  He slammed the ground a third time, jumping up and kicking multiple bricks towards the twins.

  He gasped for air, spit spilling from his mouth "I've worked so hard..!"

  Akito shot a barrage rocks at the bricks, crushing them.

  Gregor's breath quickens, he lashed out with a flurry of strikes, hitting everything in his way.

  Akuya smirked "He lost it."

  He threw his hands to his sides, creating wind slashes.

  The wind slashed through Gregor's hands, cutting deep.

  Gregor's blood painted the ground, his eyes flicker purple.

  He grabbed one of his horns, and gasped for air "You... you really think this is all I've got?!"

  His hand flung up, his horn half detached from his body.

  A menacing voice shifted the air, freezing Gregor in place.

  A whisper flowed against everyone's ears "No, not yet. I need you for later."

  The three of them snapped their head towards the voice.

  A figure with butler attire, his right eye was shining purple, while his left eye was covered with a black cloth.

  The figure stood on a rooftop, gazing downwards.

  Gregor faced at the figure, his breath haltering.

  He barely muttered ".. jo-ker"

  The figure swiftly walked down, the wind rustling as he fell.

  A moment of silence passed as his feet press the ground with a light thump.

  Akuya stepped forward, stretching his hand "Hey don't forge-"

  The figure turned his head towards Akuya, a wide grin spreading across his face.

  His purple eyes gaze into Akuya, Akuya's body tensing.

  Joker turned back to Gregor, grabbing him by the shirt.

  He tilted his head towards the twins "Ah.. sorry about him boys,"

  He stuck out his tongue, and chuckled lightly "But worry not. I can assure you this won't be the last time we meet. Enjoy your brief illusion of peace!"

  He waved them goodbye, dragging Gregor away.

  The being leaped up on the rooftop, and disappeared into the distance.

  The moment he was out of view, Akuya stumbled forward "I... I could feel him staring into my soul.."

  His hand dripped sweat as it pressed his heart.

  Akito sighed, a big sigh of relief, and nodded "I could feel that as well.. was that... was that his habel?"

  Akuya shuddered at the thought "well, lets hope that 'illusion of peace' he talked about is long"

  Akito reluctantly nodded, his face gazing the rooftop the being came from "Lets just.. go home."

  He grabbed Akuya's hand, and they both walked back to their house, Aurelis waiting, and Vex on his way.
