Yamata: [I must say...] he'd say rather respectfully considering he was trying to kill them.
Yamata: [You can see the future and put up an impenetrable barrier, are you a saint gone rouge.]
Lucy would shake her head stepping slightly back.
Yamata: [Hmm... well what is your name young girl.]
Lucy would tilt her head.
Lucy: [Lucy Minami..] she'd say with quite the confidence.
Yamata: [Ahhh.. and I like to know my opponent's name before I kill them only the worthy ones.]
Lucy: [....]
Yamata would snap his head to look directly at Himari.
Yamata: [And you?]
Himari: [Himari Higure.]
Yamata: [Both of you are strong it will be an honor to fight against you.]
Lucy nodded at the most powerful dragon, a creature capable of destroying not only this world but perhaps the entire universe without a second thought. The only thing keeping him in check was Daikenji, who could make speed itself seem slow.
There was also another individual who posed a serious threat: the one who terrorized the hospital slaughtered the doctor, and killed the shopkeeper. Together, these three were the strongest among us all.
Himari: [Ok great dragon let's do this.]
Yamata would shoot a blast which Himari would jump up cutting straight through it out speeding the blast that could keep up with Daikenji, one of the heads would strike down and Lucy would use her Kusarigama to pull the head down just enough for Himari to cut it, which she does in response Himari would jump back as the dangerous Neurotoxin would spill out clotting within 5 seconds.
Head 1: [Well done..]
Head 4 the one that was cut would regenerate slowly.
Head 2: [Peasents..]
Head 2 would use Telekinesis to off-put Himari.
Lucy would use her Kusarigama chain to pull Himari to her.
Lucy: [I have a plan.]
Himari: [What?]
Lucy: [Hold me then get him to pull you.]
Himari nods.
Himari: [You won't do it again!]
Head 2 was annoyed and intended to cast its attack again while Lucy was in range, and Lucy would activate her barrier. She would absorb the attacks from the remaining heads, allowing Himari to swing her weapon, slicing off each head one by one. Then, he jumped off the body and came down with a powerful strike, slicing Yamata No Orochi down the center.
Hokori's location
Hokori: [Ehh they beat him!! They beat Yamata no Orochi!!!]
He said he was quite panicked he thought it would surely slaughter them both...
Tokihana: [Time for the star to join the show]
She'd say this while opening a portal that outwalked both Lucy and Himari who seemed mostly unscathed they had beaten the dragon.
Lucy: [I made a misjudgment, that dragon couldn't even hold a candle in a battle against Daikenji-sama]
She'd say with a smug look on her face.
Himari: [Agreed]
With the same smug look.
Hokori: [Too strong... damn you Lucy Minami The Living Rewrite!]
Lucy: [Woah such a cool nickname you saints are so afraid of me you made me nicknames, totally amazing.]
Lucy says having a huge smile on her face.
Lucy would aim her hand attempting to shoot an energy beam but it did not fire.
Lucy: [Huh!! I can't use Orochi's abilities!]
She'd say quite shocked.
Lucy: [So I can only take saints abilities... No only people from the pond.]
Lucy would get a grin on her face.
Lucy: [You don't create things to fight for you, you summon and create]
Hokori's face would curl up afraid.
Hokori: [I'll summon Yamata No Oroichi again.]
Lucy: [You can't summon him again or he'll lash out and kill you.]
Hokori would curl his face once more looking as if he was about to cry.
Hokori: [Screw you!]
Hokori had started to show his childish nature he was able to cover up as he melted well not himself he melted and a body came out small, green hair with white eyes that appeared to be clouded but he could see just fine, he had on an oversized hoodie, dark blue jeans and black dress shoes.
Lucy: [Oh..]
Hokori: [Charity-San's gift to me has been taken away does that mean she thinks I'm gonna die...]
Tokihana would lift her hands opening a portal and closing it just as suddenly, the rough edges slicing the arm of Hokori off.
Hokori: [Ahh!!]
Hokori screamed out as he slammed his hands on the ground.
Hokori: [Shuten-dōji-Sama Help me!!]
A black smoke would come out from the ground, as a body formed within in a fat red body demonic looking it held a kanabō (a massive spiked club).
Shuten: [You summoned me...]
Hokori: [Ye-]
As soon as Hokori tried to answer, Shuten-Dōji's massive foot slammed down on his head. The force drove his face straight into the dirt with a heavy crunch. His skull buckled immediately under the weight—bones fracturing inward, eye sockets collapsing. The left eye burst from the pressure, sliding out with a wet pop as blood spurted from his nose and mouth.
His jaw cracked in half with an audible snap, the lower half wrenching sideways, held in place only by torn muscle and shredded skin. The foot didn't stop. It pressed down harder. The top of Hokori's head split open, exposing brain tissue that began to rupture under the increasing force. A thick stream of blood and cerebral fluid pooled out, bubbling as the pressure forced it through cracks in the bone.
The skull fragmented further—chunks of cranium breaking off and embedding into the dirt, grinding with a sickening sound as Shuten-Dōji twisted his foot. The right eye was crushed entirely and flattened into the skull before being erased into a smear. Teeth exploded from the gums and scattered, some crushed into white dust underfoot.
The head gave in completely. The brain was flattened beneath the boot, squeezed out in clumps that stuck to the grooves of Shuten-Dōji's sole. Bone, skin, and hair blended into a pulped mess. There was nothing left intact—just a flattened, red-black pool where Hokori's head had been, and a few twitching nerves still reacting inside the exposed meat.
The body stopped moving seconds later, and just like that, another saint had been killed...
Lucy: [...Elephant!!]
Suddenly a massive elephant dropped from the sky seeming to be made of energy would drop onto one smashing him, but it wasn't fatal.
Lucy: [Time to fight fire with fire, the 3 great Yokai's!]
She'd say quite dramatically but nothing came, well obviously not Shuten dōji, because he was right in front of her, but Tamamo no Mae, and Emperor Sutoku had not appeared.
Lucy: [So that's my limit not being able to summon legends or in other words mythic level Yokai well I'm sure it's just temporary, I should be able to summon normal Yokai though]
Lucy would smirk.
Lucy: [This is one of my favorites! Kappa!!]
A puddle would form out jumps a goofy Kappa that would jump over to Shuten-Dōji.
Shuten: [A single Ka-]
As suddenly he would be pulled into a puddle.
100's of Kappa's attempting to rip him limb from limb.
Lucy: [Do you guys mind if I take this solo Himari can land the final blow sorry for stealing the stage Tokihana-San and Hayanobu-San.]
Hayanobu: [It's ok Lucy-San we were only stalling for you to arrive regardless.]
A lone Kappa would appear behind Lucy.
Kappa: [Luuuccyy Minnammi.... I am thhhee Kappa leadddeerr "God" hasss toolld usss toooo allly wiiith youuu.]
Lucy: [Odamakura-Sama?]
The Kappa would nod.
Lucy: [I wonder what's his motive..]
Shuten-Dōji would climb out of the massive puddle covered in blood mostly from the Kappa he killed.
Lucy: [Gappy!]
Suddenly Sukima-onna would appear from the line gaps in Lucy's hand.
Lucy: [Woah!!]
Sukima: [Hehe did I scare you?]
Lucy: [Yeah clearly.]
Sukima would chuckle.
Sukima: [Sorry, Lucy-Sama.]
Just as she spoke those words she'd slip into a crack in to ground pulling him down only until his head is poking out. Sukima would go back into the ground pulling popping back out.
Sukima: [Well Lucy-Sama, that's the best I can do.]
Lucy: [Thank you.]
Lucy, with the Kappa riding her shoulder, stepped on his head—giggling as she reveled in her newfound powers.
Lucy: [Awee.. one of the great 3 evils the great Shuten Dōji under a little girl's mercy.... No, my mercy.] she'd say with a grin.
It appears that Lucy Minami has gained Mamoriko's Combat Dominance.
Lucy would giggle.
Shuten: [Damn you..]
Lucy would grin wider.
Lucy: [You know, when I gain the ability to summon you, you'll have to listen to me like a good boy. Well, actually, Himari-san will erase you, so there won't be anything left of you. I assume Yamata will be able to revive, though.] She'd say giggling.
Shuten-Dōji: [Lucy Minami...]
Lucy: [hmm Akaname...]
Suddenly a small goblin-like Yokai would appear on her shoulder and jump down it would lick Shuten Dōji's face
Lucy: [You filthy and they love licking filth.. loser]
Shuten Dōji was one of the great 3 evils his powers were less than that of Yamata No Orochi but still strong he could most likely destroy the world if he wanted to but he preferred to live in peace and drink, he'd lost to the samurai who had cut off his head, that was the only human he thought could match him besides that determination saint and Daikenji Kahito but here he was his head getting stepped on by someone who just would be in middle school, Lucy Minami had truly become strong and she knew that so she wanted to knock the arrogance right outta him by showing him that she could beat him with ease.
Shuten: [...]
Lucy: [Oni! and Yuki-Ona]
Suddenly 2 other Oni would grab Shuten-Dōji out of the ground holding him up.
Shuten-Dōji: [Brothers!! What are you..]
Suddenly a beautiful woman who you know as Yuki-Ona would walk in front of Lucy standing directly in front of Shuten-Doji this Yokai had enough power to turn the sun cold.
Shuten-Dōji: [A-]
Lucy would turn back with a smile on her face.
Lucy: [You up Himari-San.]
Himari: [right up oh great Lucy-Sama.] she'd say mockingly yet teasingly.
As she'd rushed over slicing Shuten-Doji in half a legend had been slayed, but this time permanently...
Back at Himari's place.
Megumi: [Well a lot happened and Lucy's picked up some of Mamoriko's traits...]
Mamoriko: [Huh I wouldn't do something like that!] she'd say defensively.
Lucy: [The boy at the park.]
Mamoriko would grow flustered.
Mamoriko: [He was just so weak and pathetic so I enjoyed it... I see your point.]
Megumi would giggle.
Daikenji: [Hmm I have a new ranking only top 4 though.]
Megumi: [Which is?]
Daikenji:[Me>Himari>=Lucy>Tokihana.]
Lucy gains a smug look on her face.
Lucy: [Nice..]
Himari: [Hmm looks like I'm still slightly stronger brat] she'd say laughing like a mad woman.
Lucy: [Yeah-Yeah..]
Himari: [Well anyway I've decided to get you all something.]
Lucy: [Oh?]
Himari: [Yes.]
Megumi: [Tokihana-San take us to Jakko.]
Lucy's eyes would widen.
Lucy: [Wait do you mean..]
Tokihana would open up a portal
showing a mansion, in Jakko deep in Ohara it was massive with a pool that was currently covered in the back and had a garage it was overall super cool.
Himari: [Allow me to take you on a tour.]
Lucy: [Nice place!]
Aiji: [Well I've been already!]
Daikenji: [It is quite pleasing to look at.]
Tokihana: [Hmm..]
Hayonobu: [Amazing.]
Mamoriko: [It will be quite amazing.]
Megumi: [Thanks Himari-San]
Himari: [No problem.]
As they walk in they see the normal common area, living room, training yard access, kitchen, and library. Shoji doors, wood floors, large windows facing mossy gardens.
Daikenji: [That is a nice training yard.]
Himari: [I know right.]
As they emerge onto the second floor they would see Bedrooms for Lucy, Megumi, Aiji, Mamoriko, Tokihana, Hayanobu, etc. Each room has a personalized style (Megumi's is full of notes and old relics, and Lucy's is minimal and shrine-like). Balcony hallway with a view over the forest.
Lucy: [This is so sick!]
Himari: [I'm glad you like it!] She'd say quite delighted
Aiji: [Wait why is my room full of dinosaurs..]
Himari: [That's what little kids like.]
Aiji: [...]
Lucy: [Well thanks for the tour.]
Himari: [I'm not done yet you know, there's a hidden level.]
Megumi: [Oh..]
Finally for the final floor, instead of them walking up they'd walk to an elevator that needed a special keycard that Himari held she'd wave it in front of the scanner "Access granted."
The doors would open as the group stepped in it would shoot them down at incredible speeds straight to the ground once it opened they'd see, a separate training ground with a small room far off.
Himari: [This training grounds is reinforced to the highest degree for Daikenji-Sama, to train to his heart's content.]
Daikenji: [Ahh thanks.]
Himari: [That room over there is filled with info on the saints and where they've been spotted, though it's not much.]
Lucy: [Well th—]
As Lucy would tense up she'd fall back into Mamoriko's arms.
Mamoriko: [Lucy-Chan!, oh wait
she's having a vision.]
In this vision Lucy would see on her phone news that took her to Memphis, Tennessee, multiple buildings caught fire a man dressed in white standing in the middle of it. It was on September 27th, as she'd snapped back to reality.
Lucy: [We need to go to Memphis.]
Everyone was thrown off.
Megumi: [What did you see?] concerned.
Lucy: [I saw a guy dressed in white he looked like the one on the news who killed the shopkeeper.]
Megumi: [Yeah but it was covered up immediately after we only got it because of our spy at the news station.]
Aiji: [More people like us?]
Megumi: [I don't know why you guys keep acting like we're the only ones we're clearly not.]
Lucy: [Yeah Aiji..] she'd say teasing.
Megumi: [Well next there's another kid at the daycare who has powers but his mom and dad kicked him out because of the fact he had powers.]
Lucy: [Wow mine abandoned me.]
Mamoriko: [Well you got me out of it.] she'd say teasingly.
Megumi: [Lucy when was it?]
Lucy: [One week from now.]
Megumi: [It's decided, that Lucy, Tokihana, and Hayanobu will be going to Memphis in one week.]
Lucy: [Right!]
Hokori's corps.
??: [That Lucy girl has become a threat wouldn't you agree.]
She'd say looking down and the horrible corpse of Hokori.
Diligence: [Yes I do agree well it was only expected of course I'll break her one day, you do the same, Charity.]
Charity: [Hmm well I'll try my best but I wanna meet the girl, I think she'll be nice.]
Diligence: [Fine play around with her but not too much you don't wanna end up like Nusumi and Hokori.]
Charity: [But isn't that our entire reason for being..]
Diligence: [....Maybe so..]
