91. A blood-connected protection Demon!

[Rescuing Ayuka: Arc 5]

A 'Spiritual Mode'! One of the basic techniques that a Ginkenian should master! It's another extension to their power and allows them to seperate their spirit from their body on the outside. A linking technique such as this one is necessary for Ginkenians because of it's polluted power, allowing them to switch dimensions between Zero World and Planet Earth. This ability is usually not shown by the trained Ginkenians but their pressure can be felt. Once the Spirit Seperates through the body their potential can be easily overwhelmed and a basic Ginkenian could easily be harmed by their own Spirit. The 'Spirit Mode' is quite different and the bodies of Ginkenians become Spiritual, through seeable and very difficult to learn. But the weakness of such body is risky.... Currently we still do not know much about this mysterious technique.....

Sayori backed away when seeing the girl standing on the ceeling, looking down at them, Codey stood up. "What the hell are you?!" But no answers, the girl began saying. "You bastards! I knew something was going on with you! You think you can just come here and dig around the store! You'll pay with regretting!" The girl now had, blood red eyes, a harder skin and her black hair were spread in waveful air. Codey and Sayori backed away but both of them were cornered. "You're a Demon?! How! I would be able to sense you! How can!?" Codey was speechless when looking at the girl. "No answers!" The girl blasted off the roof at Codey and prepared a slice but to his luck, Codey disappeared and backed away, the Demonic girl, stood on the floor when she seemed to be extreme in anger. Sayori reached for her belt and dashed at the girl, then swung to hopefully cut the girl, even though Sayori succeeded she still seemed to have done no effect on such Demon, in fact, after the cut, the Demon just back handed with a smash and striked Sayori into the chest when bouncing her directly at the hard and rough wall. "You'll leave him alone!" The girl was obsessed with protecting a singular Demon, that seemed to have been sick or something. Sayori had cut clothes when she felt pain. When Sayori opened, the Demon dashed right in front of Sayori. "Get away from her!" Codey swung forward with his boomerang but then, when he threw, his arm was grabbed and pulled back by the sick Demon so the accuracy of Codey's throw striked right into the wall. "Damn it!" With a kick back, he pummeled the sick Demon away. "No!" The female Demon, dashed and jumped directly at Codey when reached back with her claw, she released blood essences when a heavy and sharp scythe appeared in her grip, from surprise that made both of our allies surprised. With a stomp on the ground and slash forward, the girl sliced but Codey ducked and the female just bashed over his head when slicing into the wall and completely obliterating it. The female Demon slid on the floor with a dropping scythe and turned around when she stood in the middle of the night street. Codey launched for Sayori to help her when backed away. "Get away you freaks!" The female Demon shouted and the people who were still outside began charging in scare shouts. "You're the freak here!" As much as Codey was worried, he could not do much about destruction and the ruins of an area. Codey who was trapped with Sayori against one of the most powerful Demons quickly dragged his before thrown boomerang and prepared, but as for Sayori she reached for her daggers, but as she did the girl who was a Demon unleashed a strange pulse which blew the daggers toward her, such force even cracked many walls, even forced Codey to actually need and protect his eyes and yet then he was pushed back. "What the hell! What's this strange pulse! I can barely hold my ground! I haven't met a Demon with such Spiritual Symbolism! How can it even wield a Ginken! Damn it! Are these the Demons which Ayuka told us about, the 'Special Grade', they can't be serious! It's difficult to stand as if you were trying to hold balance!" Codey's loud shouts yelled but then the Demon screeched and Codey's eyes shook. "Aria? That's her name?! Damn it!" Aria's screeches were bursting out but Codey was sensing sadness and other feelings in Aria, he even noticed some tears splashing down. "She's trying to hold it! What is she!?" As the pulse continued to pummel, Codey motionly swung his right arm to the side and swung back to the front the boomerang went flying at a high speed but was slowing down because of the pulse, however in luck the boomerang slammed and pushed Aria back stopping the pulse, with a relieving breath, Codey made another step and threw the boomerang forward.

While the boomerang was flying forward, Aria moved and bounced into the air with a pass, the boomerang from Codey turned and aimed at Aria. At this point, the boomerang hit her in the shoulder and knocked her to the ground. Aria slid through the heavy floor and lifted her scythe, screeching and swinging down, releasing red and dark energy that slipped through the air and created tremendous pressure that also stopped Codey from moving, the whole street, felt fear, and some people started screaming at that. As Codey tried to keep his balance he noticed a shift movement from Aria and in doing so he noticed red glowing eyes forcing Aria to dash quickly towards Codey. "What the hell! I can't do anything! This pressure is too much for me to handle!" At the call, Codey noticed a scythe cutting against him, he knew that he needed to somehow avoid it. Codey squatted and felt as scythe cut across his head, he quickly kicked forward and pushed Aria away, but the force from her, too, bounced him aside and he fell through the wall and knocked her down. Finally the pressure stopped and Codey took a breath when picking back up his boomerangs that almost had no effect on Aria. Aria began backing away and dropped the Scythe, she began holding her head and screaming. "I don't understand! Is she in pain?!" Codey noticed that the scythe flew at him and sliced downward. In surprise, Codey rolled forward but quickly noticed that the swinging was not yet finished, from quick reaction, Codey jumped and avoided the second swing. Soon after, the scythe sliced sideways and Codey was in a must avoiding state, so he rolled over the swing and dropped, landing on the floor. "It's attacking me without its wielder even doing nothing?!" Codey sliced in a circle back and blocked the next slice but in doing so, he was still packed back, he ducked when the next swing sliced over his head, he then stepped to the side and shifted his movements when the next slice swung, Codey turned and avoided and then soon, jumped to another scythe slice. He then needed to back and make distance, so to do so, he used the Vanishing Dash, the scythe just flew back to Aria, besides her when the sick Demon seemed to have been injured, Codey soon noticed the Demon and realized. "These two... they... they are connected with their blood, which means! Every pain the one gets, the second one will feel too..." Codey then became serious and spun his boomerang. "But first! I should stun this little cocky Demon, so she won't interrupt when I kill the one on the floor!"

Codey stretched his right arm behind his back and took a step, quickly releasing a sharp and strong wind, using that force, he bounced toward Aria. Aria of course didn't just stand there so she grabbed the scythe with both hands and swung forward. Codey slid close with a bow and cut into Aria's stomach, then turned on the spot, and kicked Aria in the abdomen and bounced back. Aria quickly disappeared with Vanishing Dash, and grabbed the edge of the wall and ran down that wall. Codey followed her and crossed both boomerangs in front of his eyes and let out the next strong wind, throwing both boomerangs and a chain strike, they both turned and the first cut into Aria's back and pushed her to the ground, as for the second it flew quickly under Aria and then stabbed her directly in the abdomen, making her screech again and rolling on the floor. Both boomerangs thrown by Codey came back through the wind and also caught them, then Codey turned towards the sick Demon. But as he ran at it, the pressure from that Demon began pushing Codey away and he was incapable of striking it. "Sayori! Kill that sick Demon! NOW!" Codey shouted, Sayori who was the closest reached for her dagger and in pain began crawling towards the Demon. "Hurry before the girl attacks again!" As Codey shouted, Sayori added. "I'm trying! It's too pushy!" She continuesly crawled closer still feeling some pain when the Demon seemed to be in fear. "Get away! Geeet! Get away from him!" Aria blasted at Codey and in surprise he already saw his life flashing before his eyes, but as then set, Sayori raised her right arm and stabbed downward with a yell immediately stabbing the sick Demon's head, Codey soon noticed Aria falling before him as his eyes shook. "N....no..." The final few tears were splashed past Codey's eyes when Aria's scythe cracked and blasted in sparkles, she then slept down on the floor when Codey soon began sensing. "Wh...Why.... he... he was... just...." Sayori was breathing when Codey faced at the fallen girl, her Demon skin completely cracked when the teenager girl soon began returning her beauty.

{Aria was a girl who seemed to be quite close to her brother, but one day. "Hey! Tinsho! Come on! I promised to play with you!" Aria called, giggling at her younger brother. "Yay! I'm coming! What are we going to play! Football! Basketball!? Ooh! Ooh! Maybe even tennis!" Tinsho giggled when he soon ran after her older sister. "Whatever you'd like, I'm here to do as you want!" The precious smile from Aria was given to her brother, but then one day, the time for them changed.

Both of the siblings rushed when Aria kept on holding her brother's hand. "Aria! Aria! What is that thing! It's scary! Aria!!" Aria who was running with him, was afraid. "I don't know! It's~" But then when she was about to finish, the Demon jumped over Tinsho's head and pummeled her onto the ground, seperaring the two siblings. "Aria! No!" As Tinsho seemed to be afraid, he heard the shouts from Aria. "Hurry! Hurry! Get away! Please! Run, Tinsho!" But to his worry, Tinsho could not let his sister, alone, so instead, frozen on the spot, hoped to help, but the fear was keep on giving out when he saw the brutallity. "Hurry! Tinsho!!!!" But the final shout from Aria was seen in a blood bath, Tinsho's eyes shook when seeing his sister get bitten and infected by the Demon. "A....Aria...." But laying in the blood bath, Aria couldn't move, instead the Demon decided to turn toward Tinsho and continue his meal, the Demon began moving and closing in on the poor child, but before eating and biting, Tinsho screamed in fear and before even knowing, he saw the Demon before him, dying in a troublesome direction, his eyes shook when seeing his sister, now changed, being a Demon standing before him. "Aria... w...what happened to you..." But, almost no emotion revealed, Aria stomped the head of that Demon, killing it before the eyes of her brother, her eyes were also now part Demonic and her heart was beating faster than normally. "Tinsho.... come.... I'll protect you, please... just.... just help me...." Aria was asking for his blood when the poor and still sick child saw fear. But to no avail, Tinsho seemed to be very unsure and backed away. But to change his mind, Aria changed to her normal look with a precious smile, thinking that his sister was still alive, he rammed forward into her grip, but to disappointement, Aria changed and with ease bit into his body, and the screech was shout out.

Many days and weeks have passed and Tinsho was getting sicker and sicker so Aria needed to keep him somewhere, to get a job to hopefully keep her true identity, she decided to work in a store, raised money and kept Tinsho hidden in storage so he had free food and supplies, she wouldn't have let anyone to interfere their plans....}

"I... I'm sorry.... Tinsho...." The final words came from Aria and even shocked Codey, Sayori sat up and leaned up against a wall. "Another... Demon... whose life was terrible... poor people, what do they become after such events...." Codey reached for the head and raised Aria's head when seeing it, teared down. "I'm... sorry..." Even those words that were meant for Codey forced him to become shook up, he slowly began looking at Aria whose body began disappearing even Tinsho's body and soon, the few people left around, seemed to be unsure of what has happened. "Please... rest well." Even Codey's emotions of sadness came, when the final tear splashed up against the head of Aria, and then, everything, every glance of the two siblings disappeared. "They... were connected... weren't they?" To Sayori's question, Codey agreed. "Yeah... they were...."

[ - Aria was once a human but then became a Half-Demon! She has black hair and usually had brown eyes, but that changed once she became a walker. Her younger brother's life was what kept her going and her emotions towards him seemed to have been focused on protecting him, but..... poor Aria could barely keep her brother alive with supplies...., we all believe that family is a priority....]
