Chapter 9 - Chapter IX (9)

Ren's bat left a ripple in the air. She ripped through the barrier like plastic wrap. I can sense their aura's now, but it's fading. Nagisa, Kawa, and Maria. I can even feel Akane's presence. But what's this disturbance in Nagisa's aura? Through Ren's eyes, everything was black and white. The range of her vision zoomed through buildings to narrowing onto the girls.

The four were surrounded by men in robes. All had weapons or circles aimed at the battered girls. Nagisa grinned, then stomped. "I am the Future Clan Leader!" The ground shuddered. Everyone was airborne, pushed back by the huge wave of aura she exerted from her cratering declaration. All were sent tumbling from her might. On Nagisa's chest, a tattoo form.

Ren's tattoos resonated with hers. Clan Leader?! Not lieutenant??

Nagisa fell to the ground. Her eyes shut along with the other girls.

One man shot the girls in each limb. The men moved to restrain them.

Ren tossed. The man who shot the girls exploded. Her metal bat blasted through his body like it was a water balloon and then stabbed into the ground.

She sprint through the holes in the building left by the bat's wake then stopped before it. Her split stream came in like a storm. In the dust, her red eyes dart back and forth. She grabbed her bat.

She sneered. "You motherfuckers really think you're the shit. Stepping on my turf, destroying the property of my victims-I mean clients, attacking my family, hurting my precious daughter!" She held her bat up then swung. Aura was released. The ground shattered from the force. The buildings crumbled in its path. The men were dead. Buried under rubbles of asphalt, pavement, and concrete. "Your lives are the price. The Yamaguchi's will collect."

On her left, buildings fall as red aura smashed through them. A car swerved out the collapsing building and pulled up behind her. Sayuri exits. Her hair and eyes are crimson. She stooped by the girls and sighed relieved then glared at the corpses of the men in robes. "All those mother fuckers are double dead!" She scowled. Her aura exploded.

"Calm down lieutenant. She's just unconscious like the rest of them. A day of detox and she'll be alright. Besides, shouldn't you be the one to calm me in times like these?"

"Clan Leader is right Lieutenant." Their mother appeared behind Ren. "You should be the one to calm her, especially now."

Sayuri arched a brow. "Woah. The fuck is up with your face? I can't tell if ya pissed, excited or wanna take a dump." Her mother rolled her eyes.

Ren chuckled. "Thanks for that. I was out for blood but I can't help but to be excited. Thanks to their brazen disregard for who we are, the heir to my Yamaguchi Clan has been unveiled."

"What?!" Sayuri and her mother said. "Where?!"

Ren stooped down ripping her shirt open. Buttons flew revealing her breasts wrapped in cloth and just about it her tattoos glowed down from her chest to her abdomen. She ripped open Nagisa's blouse. Her breasts were wrapped lightly with cloth. Ren touched Nagisa's chest with a hand full of aura. A matching tattoo glowed down her chest to her abdomen. They gasped. "Nagisa Yamaguchi, my daughter is the next heir to the Yamaguchi Clan."

"But my vision. It was Kai who leads us." Said their mother.

"We must have misunderstood the vision."

Sayuri nodded. She poked at Nagisa's breasts. "Has to be. Those are definitely the big tits of a Clan Leader." A vain formed in Ren's and their mother's forehead.

"This Vail is a hindrance. It blocks all our extrasensory perception skills. I couldn't sense the kids until I was in but now I can't sense our clansman."

Aura manifested on her hand. "Let's see it block a curse as strong as a Clan Leader's." She tried communicating with the outside but it was useless. She couldn't feel or reach anyone outside. Anyone else would give up after the twenty eighth attempt, but Ren, she never got the title 'Mad Head' of the Yamaguchi Clan for doing sensible things.

Her aura erupted like a geyser. I need the power to go beyond my current limits, to be as strong as her. She made our clan thrive with abilities far greater than my own. If I'm going to make my clan rise again, I need more.

Her vision went dark. Everything was black and white as she examined her own aura. It was still crimson.

She felt something familiar yet alien to her in her own aura. Yes, this is it, the beginning of the power that she had, power beyond my limit. She condensed all the aura into a ball in her palm. She siphoned off her crimson aura until there was nothing but a black spark left.

Tattoos creeped down her forearm. Aura returned to her palm and flickered black. On her mother and sister's neck, tattoos crept up their collarbone. "Those on the outside. Surround the Vail. No one leaves."

On the outside, men in robes were being smashed against buildings. Their entrails painting the walls and streets. The women with red hair slaughtered the remaining followers of the Eschaton Temple without discretion.

"Now that they can't run." Sayuri glared at some men fleeing. She swung to the side. Her pipe released aura. It swept in low like the tide. It solidified into a wave of red transparent bricks protruding out of the ground and formed walls.

The men scattered. One stood before the incoming sprout of brick walls. He crossed his arms as he fiddled with a device on his forearms. He aimed. Magic circles appeared. "Boulder Wave." He Slammed them into the ground.

Giant rocks jutted from the ground. They collided with the aura walls. "I'd appreciate it if you didn't act on your murderous impulses and slaughter all of my men. Their rather useful pawns that might succeed me one day."

The dust settled. The rocks were all that remained of the road. Behind the mildly leveled terrain foot steps were heard. A man. Scruffy was his goatee and hair gray. He wore a robe with matching baggy pants and boots.

Ren's scanned the area. A human capable of using Magic that isn't a half breed like the police chief's lineage. Her eyes dart from Nagisa's backpack to his arms. She smirked. "Nice watch you got there."

"To get complimented by the infamous 'Mad Head' Ren Yamaguchi is quite the honor. Introductions are in order. I am Frank Morris, Pope of the Eschaton Temple."
