Sebastian slowly stood up, his left hand grabbing his neck.
“I’ve been better…” he said as his eyes flash a bright red. He fired several missile like bombs from his back in random directions, hoping to at least hit something. Two figures moved out of the missiles’ way and landed in front of Hinata and Sebastian.
They didn’t say anything… they just laughed. One of them was wearing a black armor with a mask designed like a wolf’s head while the other was wearing a white armor with a helm designed like a tiger.

Hinata looked ticked.
"Oh, ha ha ha. I wonder if they could laugh if I ripped their vocal cords out."

Sebastian put his hands together in a praying way and closed his eyes.
“Tengokuhenokaidan…” he muttered. When he opened his eyes, his eyes were shown to be radiating golden light and his hands were now emitting energy. If Hinata was able to sense power levels, Sebastian’s has just tripled.
“I’d like to see that as well for some reason” the Virgo armor Sebastian was wearing started to change a little bit but it was still too subtle to notice.

Hinata raised an eyebrow at the increase in Sebastian's power, then turned her attention back to the two figures.
"Well then, I think now is as good as time as ever to find out." She drew her second sword, a dangerous glint in her eyes.

The tiger attacked first, rushing straight for Sebastian. As they were running, long red claws emerged from their gloves.
The half-man giggled a little before holding his hand up, blocking the claws with ease.
“…Tengoku no hogo…” he muttered before whipping his arm upwards, sending the tiger armored warrior flying up high.

The wolf rushed for Hinata and blue fang like claws came out of their hands similar to the tiger warrior. He jumped up and attempted to slice Hinata from behind.

Hinata turned, blocking with her right sword, then immediately following up with a Power infused hook kick to the figure's head. She tsked.

The figure flew towards Sebastian to which Sebastian grabbed him and tossed him upwards. He then jumped after them.
“Tengoku no Ame!” Sebastian shouted and up to a thousand rays of light energy came raining from the sky, piercing both the black wolf and the white tiger. He grabbed the black wolf’s body and thrown it against the ground with such force that could break a human’s body while he kicked the white tiger armored one against a rock, shattering it into pieces.

He then landed, quietly and gracefully. Right at that moment, it was clear. The Virgo armor has shown its true form.

From a simple knight’s helm Sebastian had on earlier, it became an open golden crown with a azure knight’s mask instead, revealing the bottom half of Sebastian’s face. His armor grew giant angel like wings and the armor released its blue cape with a Virgo symbol on it that was hidden inside the shoulder piece. The armor itself decreased in size, allowing faster movement and better mobility.

Hinata watched silently, her facial expression neutral. Then, she smiled.
"Cool." She straightened her posture, resting one hand on her hip and letting the other dangle.

(Now you’re just making me smile uncontrollably)

Sebastian laughed a little.
“Didn’t expect Virgo’s armor to look like this to be honest…” He commented on the armor he had on him. He then turned his attention towards a twig someone stepped on. Looking up, he saw both the white tiger and the black wolf still maintaining their bodies.
“Geez… do you guys not know how to leave?” Sebastian complained as he held his hand up towards the two figures.
Instead of leaving or attacking, they stood completely motionless like they waiting for Sebastian to attack.

(^w^)
Hinata watched quietly, feeling like something was off.
"Hey, Sebastian… I have a feeling attacking right now might not be the best thing." She wearily eyed the two figures, not liking how they weren't trying to do anything to protect themselves.

Sebastian nodded lightly and put his hand down.
“Why aren’t you attacking?” The black wolf spoke up, his voice was… familiar. Sebastian opened his mouth slightly.
“I mean… it’s not like I’m hard to hit right? I’m right in front of you right now…” the white tiger added, again, his voice was one which was familiar for some reason.

(Woah. That was pretty awesome)
"Yeah, I don't think so." Hinata couldn't place where she knew the figure's voices from, but she didn't exactly like Sebastian's reaction.

(It’s one of the best of the season!)

Sebastian clenched his fist before speaking up.
“Who you are isn’t important, what is important is why you are here” he stated, loud and clear.
The wolf turned to the tiger before they replied in unison.
“To corrupt this piece of land” they said as they both knelt down and started tearing the ground apart with their powers.
At that very moment…
FWOOSH…
The black wolf’s head was penetrated by a sword which flew from somewhere not within his sight. The tiger gasped a little before a figure appeared behind him seemingly out of nowhere and started slicing him apart. The tiger let out a pained scream before he was left in pieces on the ground. The figure’s face… was a skull, an actual skull. They had several sheaths of blades to which they kept beside their body and one was even attached to their back. They moved to the wolf and ripped the blade from his shoulder blade, sheathing it on his back’s sheath before turning to Hinata and Sebastian.

(Guess who’s back from the dead???)

(Hm… I'm gonna take a shot in the dark and say one of the several who have died)
( ( ͡ . ͜ . ͡ ) )
Hinata blinked several times.
"Okay, then."

(…… YOU COME INTO MY HOUSE!! DISRESPECT MY CHARACTERS’ DEATHS!! XD)

Sebastian eyed the character for sometime before finally speaking.
“Just in time, Connor”

(XD)
Hinata didn't seem to move, but there was a very, very slight air of distrust about her. She still had one hand on her hip.

Connor turned away from them both and stared off into the sky.
“Even if this body is to be burnt to cinders, I won’t let my beloved land be defiled. I will protect it to the end and once again…” he said in a clear voice despite being a skeleton. Some blue flower petals danced along the winds which passed by them.
“The azure roses stained in jet black which no longer hold any meaning will be turned to ashes and scattered towards this land I love…” ending the statement, Connor’s body disappeared along with a heavy whiff of wind and a storm of flowers. One thing was left behind though, a note was on the ground where Connor was.

Goodbye my beloved land, This is my final goodbye

Hinata read the note silently, not showing any emotions. She stepped back, sheathing her swords hesitantly.

The note was soon blown away by the wind’s strength. Sebastian stepped into Hinata’s line of sight soon after.
“That was weird wasn’t it…?” he asked, not knowing what to feel in that situation. This was a secret but Sebastian looks up to Connor for both his fighting skills and his bravery when it comes to fighting.
