For the past months, Sanosuke had trained in the land of the wasp clan. In the morning, Sanosuke had to fight against Biosk in the courtyard. This time Sanosuke would be able to fair well against the wasp knight. Before, Biosk had yelled at him telling him to use the natural chakra that is senjutsu to be powered up his attacks so that he might be able to fight back against Biosk’s strikes. In the beginning of his lessons, Sanosuke would be struck down as quickly as he was during his first day of senjutsu training. But thanks to the countless beatings he received from Biosk, he was slowly becoming to use the senjutsu chakra that he has been training to use to be able to fight. It took Sanosuke time for him to understand how to use the ability he needed to fight against Biosk. With every punch that he was dealt by Biosk, it gave him the experience he needed to be engulfed by the feelings that went hand in hand to master the use of senjutsu chakra. In the beginning of his training, Sanosuke was at the mercy of the raw and intensified feelings that went through his blood every single time that Sanosuke was almost beaten to death by Biosk’s attacks. Biosk would fight against an enraged Sanosuke, this time Biosk wasn’t caught off guard and put down Sanosuke with ease. He would awaken each time sore and beaten in his bed with new bandages on his body.

Titania would be waiting for Sanosuke in the room with her arms folded. There they would practice together with giving the senjutsu chakra that he was trying to bring out. Titania used the time after Sanosuke’s physical strength training with Biosk, to help Sanosuke better manipulate the chakra of the nature. After being exposed to such raw emotions from the fighting that Sanosuke did, Titania claims that Sanosuke would be able to have better luck using senjutsu chakra than he would without having to go through the training. By becoming exposed to the raw emotions of senjutsu, Sanosuke is temporarily still linked to the senjutsu that his body used by accident when he was close to death. So now was the only time to have a chance of being able to be used to the sensation of using senjutsu chakra to fuel his movements. Together Titania taught Sanosuke how to properly meditate and gather the chakra from his surroundings. The amount of mental power that Sanosuke had to put into the training was so intense that Sanosuke could feel as though he had sparred against Biosk multiple times in a row. He would be out of breath and heaving heavily. His shirt would be covered in sweat as he tried to focus on the senjutsu chakra he was gathering. Navi would be there every time Sanosuke would train to cheer him on. Even though Sanosuke wanted to do the senjutsu training by himself, Navi would have attempted to try and bond with Sanosuke to assist him with his training; if Titania hadn’t declined her offer, Sanosuke would have. This was his training, and his training alone to complete, he would try and make it up to Navi some other time when he wasn’t training.

There were times when he would have gathered the senjutsu chakra that was in his surroundings, but then he would struggle to try and maintain the chakra in his body. It felt as though gravity was pushing down upon his body at once, like gravity in the world to him was increased to 100x the amount of normal gravity. Buzzing could be heard from the chakra that was surrounding Sanosuke’s body. The buzzing was cutting into his skin like thousands of razor blades were digging deeper and deeper into his skin. The pain was agonizing, and there would be times when Sanosuke would have to hold the pressure for hours upon hours of just focusing on just making sure that Sanosuke had maintained the feelings his body was experiencing. He would then drop the pressure on his body so he can have some time to recover before Titania would instruct him to continue his meditation.

Sanosuke, after about 4 hours of straight meditation, he would get to the point where he would come close to passing out. The Wasps had a diet of mostly fruit and vegetables, so they would no eat anything else that was made out of meat. Sanosuke was used to eating only fruits and vegetables because he had to eat that while on the road with Guru Pathik so eating this kind of diet was something that really didn’t bother him. Navi would fly in with the food that he needed and Sanosuke would wolf down the food so he wouldn’t starve to death. As soon as he was done eating the food that his partner prepared for him, Sanosuke would collapse on his bed tired from his efforts. He would then wake up to a very irritated Navi who was sitting on the bed looking very pissed at Sanosuke. The Kumo jounin would sigh and pick up the wasp and then apologize to Navi before deciding to play with his friend.

During the time they would have together, Sanosuke would tell Navi of all the things that were on the outside world. It even included things that Sanosuke have told few about, and the finally things that he has never told anyone before. It would even include some of his darkest secrets that he prefer to not have people know about. But there were something about Navi that had him tell everything there was about him In return, Navi told him of his past. How she was a low class wasp whose parents were forced to work and had no friends. She would wander in the forest so that she can get away from the other wasps her age who would make fun of the sounds that would be heard whenever Navi flew. Sanosuke would shake his head and pat Navi and tell her over and over again how stupid those other wasps were for making fun of the beautiful sound of her bells being heard. The bells were the one thing that made Navi different from all of the other wasps in the village, it made her look more like a fairy than a wasp ever could. When Navi heard that Sanosuke had said that, she ran into his arms so deeply that it was like he was being hugged tightly. So they would just talk about the things that they each didn’t know about the other. It made the two so much closer that it seemed as though they could know what the other is thinking without even knowing it or putting much effort into trying to read the other’s mind.

Then night time would come in and Navi would walk over to the throne room so that he can speak to the Queen of the Wasps. When he got in, he would bow to the Queen before speaking to the Queen. The Queen hated the fact that Sanosuke bowed before him, but it was something he had to do. But after getting the formalities out of the way, Sanosuke would talk more informally to the queen without the formalities that Titania demanded he give the Queen. He would tell the Queen about the things that existed in the outside world. He told the queen about the villages, the jutsu they’ve created. He even told him about all the adventures that he had when he was a shinobi, and all the adventures he had with Pathik the past 4 years since he’s been on the voyage with the Guru for more chakra enlightenment about the several chakra points that existed in the human body. The Queen would look in interest and ask questions that portrayed to the different stories that Sanosuke told the Queen. Navi would whistle as well in shock and ask Sanosuke to tell more, even the Queen egged on Sanosuke to reveal more about his stories, but by then Sanosuke would be too tired and head over to his bedroom so that he could possibly get some more hours of sleep before he had to wake up at the morning’s first rays of life so he had to start his demanding training regimen from the very beginning.

With each day of training Sanosuke had accomplished, he noticed that his body was changing. With all the physical training that Sanosuke had done with Biosk, he would gain more muscle tone than he had before training started. Even though he was before an artificial sun, he could feel his skin getting the rays of light it needed to gain more crucial vitamins and ingredients it needed to look more health. The muscles he gain had made him looked stockier than before so that he would look as though he had worked out. Thanks to all the training he’s done with Titania with senjutsu chakra, it also made his body grow slightly. Senjutsu had a significant toll on the body, so the hours of meditation he’s done caused his body to have some growth. It made him look older than he actually was, even though he was only 24. He grew taller in the time he spent training, so that he grew just about 2 inches.

The months that Sanosuke had spent, gave him the ability to use senjutsu chakra more easily than before. He could easily flow the natural senjutsu chakra when he needed to; whether it be jutsu or his body he could do it now without having to resort to being beaten half to death by a vengeful knight that wanted more than anything to kill Sanosuke if he had the opportunity to do so. Every time Biosk had struck down Sanosuke, he would sneer at every hit as though he had come closer to beating Sanosuke to death.

The sun was high in the sky and there was a chakra membrane at the cavern of the caves, so that it would reflect off the rays of light. It made the membrane transform into an artificial sun so that it made the place look as though it was under the actual sun that they were under. Even though it was an artificial sun, it had the potential to shine brighter than the natural sun so that the rays of light warmed up his body with light rays. The sun beat down his skin trying to cook him alive. Thanks to the chakra that he had used, he wasn’t feeling it as well. Sanosuke glared at Biosk who glared right back at him. The two was standing each other off, waiting for the other to make a move so they can act on their mistake.

Finally Sanosuke took the inititative and focused senjutsu chakra around his body and thrust himself forwards so he could make a head on collision with his senjutsu combat teacher. Biosk got into a tight form bracing himself from the attack. With one punch, Sanosuke threw it at Biosk’s fist. The knight caught it in his arm, and prepared to retaliate with a punch of his own to counter the kumo jounin’s strike. Sanosuke focused more into his back so that he had the power to life more. Senjutus chakra rolled off his body with power, so that physical strength seemed to roll off every inch of his body.

He felt himself get powered up with emotions that were so raw that it might have a crucial role on decisions he might make when fighting Biosk. A mistake indeed since he was a trained combat veteran with years and years of experience that would dwarf any that he had. Got to stay in control. Don’t let the emotions overwhelm me![ Sanosuke exclaimed loudly to himself to keep himself focus on the task at hand. He calmed down so the emotions that was developing was repressed so that he could only feel power that was coming into his body. The power was guiding his movements and allowed him to have a hard grip on Biosk’s forearm.

The wasp looked at Sanosuke’s arms in shock and attempted to punch Sanosuke anyways despite the fact that Sanosuke is clenching onto his arm like an anaconda keeping an iron grip on its prey. The weight change of Biosk was leaning towards Sanosuke’s body. That’s perfect, Sanosuke knew that Biosk would put his weight into his attack. It was a pattern that Sanosuke noticed Biosj would do in all of his attacks. Even though he could use senjutsu, at this point Sanosuke could manipulate it better than the wasp knight ever could. That’s why Biosk was to resort into throwing his weight in every attack instead of using the senjutsu that he would gather to give his body the fuel needed to throw in attacks. This was the one advantage that Sanosuke had over Biosk, unlike his superior Sanosuke could use senjutsu chakra to fuel his movements more freely than him.

When the weight had shifted in his favor, Sanosuke focused the chakra that was on the sole of his feet. In his training, Sanosuke discarded his footwear so that he can be able to use attacks properly. Titania told him that having shoes on while still training in senjutsu would offset the balance in the senjutsu energy that was gathering in his body; it was best to do this training with as little clothing as possible. So he was left with only black pants and a white t shirt. From all the training, his shirt was dirtied and had lots of tears in it from all the intense training he was doing with Biosk.

Biosk’s fist came in at Sanosuke’s face at rocked speeds, but also he was moving farther and farther towards Sanosuke to the point where he would be leaning far too much into the punch. He didn’t mean to commit so much into the punch, he tried pulling away but Sanosuke refused to let go of him. He was committed on pulling the wasp knight towards him. Sanosuke was also guiding the fist away from his body so that he wouldn’t be able to strike him. When Biosk was closing in closer, Sanosuke held Biosk’s sides with both hands this time as soon as the fist was as far from Sanosuke as possible. This time Sanosuke focused chakra on his fingertips to be sure that he wouldn’t let go of the wasp knight’s bulky body. ”You know something Biosk?” Sanosuke asked with his own smirk as soon as he saw Biosk’s shocked impression on his face. It was too delicious for him to ignore.

Taking a deep breath, Sanosuke threw in all of his weight on his back and focused as much senjutsu chakra into his arms to give him as much strength as possible. With this strength he acquired, Sanosuke let out a battle cry and lifted Sanosuke up from his sides and carried him over to pile drive Biosk’s head into the ground. ”You’re pretty god damn predictable!” Sanosuke called out. He was sure that his attack would land leaving Biosk with a nasty scar on his head. Biosk clenched hard on Sanosuke’s sides this time and landed on the ground with a thud. The wasp knight’s legs wobbled with the weight that collapsed on him. Biosk straightened his body and used his own strength to rip Sanosuke out from the ground. Sanosuke’s eyes opened in surprised as he was yanked from the ground, despite from the fact that he was held to the ground with chakra.

Biosk tossed Sanosuke towards the pillar of the courtyard with all of his might, along with his toss being powered with senjutsu chakra in his arms. The force that Sanosuke was sent flying at, it was too much. He felt his ears pop from the incoming velocity he was in, if he didn’t stop himself from colliding with that pillar then he would be a splatter on the pillar. Adjusting his body, Sanosuke absorbed the incoming chakra that was coming from the air and transferred it to his back. He had to use as much chakra as possible. When he was fairly certain that he had enough, he unleashed the chakra that was developing on his back. The chakra made him explode outwards towards Biosk at high speeds. It seemed as though there was boosters of light coming from his body when he was speeding off towards the wasp knight. Making sure that there was a thin veil of senjutsu chakra around his body to protect his body from being ripped to pieces at the speed he was moving in. Senjutsu chakra had a lot more torque to it than the regular chakra he’s used to using to fuel his techniques.

When he rocked towards Biosk, he charged up a fist full of senjutsu chakra, and threw it right at Biosk. Biosk blocked the punches that he was getting thrown at by Sanosuke. He tried to weave and dodge each one so he wouldn’t get hit. But Sanosuke wasn’t letting up his offense for a second. Whenever Biosk would throw a punch to gain the offensive advantage, Sanosuke would detect his movement by sensing his movements and counterattack; thus putting Biosk right back in the defensive mindset. This sort of fighting was something that Sanosuke could manage. He would achieve victory this time. Sanosuke threw a punch at Biosk, but he dodge it by weaving under him to the right. Sanosuke went in for a hook punch to catch the knight off guard. The knight blocked it by holding up both arms to shield himself from the strike. Turning around swiftly, Sanosuke spun around in tight circles on his heels. He spun quickly, faster and faster to get around Biosk’s back while moving at those speeds to catch him off guard. He threw a chakra empowered elbow right at Biosk’s back.

Biosk dropped down to the ground and landed on his hands so that it was only his hands holding up his weight. He bucked out his feet towards Sanosuke, his feet was powered with senjutsu chakra so that the kick would be enough to end this fight with Sanosuke with just one kick if Sanosuke had not dodged it. He jumped in the air, and even the kick that he was dealt had him tumbling in the air as though he was a ragdoll. Sanosuke used the updraft from the kick to give him a tight spin so that he was spinning upwards in the air and then applied senjutsu chakra on his body to bring down his weight right down on Biosk. He stopped his spinning so he could deliver a velocity and senjutsu chakra powered drop kick onto Biosk’s head. Had he not blocked it with both hands, Sanosuke most likely would have killed his teacher. Biosk gritted from the pressure of the kick as the aftershock of Sanosuke’s strike had left a crater bellow Biosk’s feet as he tried to fend off the attack as much as possible. Sanosuke struggled to breakthrough Biosk’s defense but he wasn’t making it any easier for him. The two were in deadlock; if Sanosuke didn’t keep the pressure then Sanosuke would be wide open for a counterattack, if Biosk’s shield broke for a second then Sanosuke’s attack would end this sparring match at once.

After being in deadlock, the two fighters broke away from the deadlock both knowing that neither person would give ground. Sanosuke used Biosk’s forearms as a spring board to flip backwards in the air and skidded on his feet. Dirt kicked up as he landed on his feet. Biosk jumped back at his punch and also skidded. As soon both fighters stopped moving backwards, they darted at each other with all their speed. Sanosuke was faster and so was able to come in closer to his target than Biosk was. They both cocked back their fist and threw it at each other to strike each other in the face. Senjutsu chakra leaked from their fist as they tossed it at each other. Mirrored punches were thrown and both fighters caught the fists in each other’s hands. Sanosuke and Biosk winced at the pain that was in their hands. They were each in deadlock once more as they struggled to see who would have more dominance in this fight; the human or the wasp.

Sweat beat down their necks as they tried to overwhelm the other. Sanosuke gritted his teeth as he tried to focus more senjutsu chakra into his muscles so that he can match Biosk’s brute strength that Sanosuke could feel him put more into it. Biosk growled low as he tried to overwhelm the kumo jounin in this strength match. It was a deadlock like before but only this time there was no retreating or giving up. As they stood there looking at each other, Biosk tried one more push to knock over Sanosuke in strength but Sanosuke stood resielient against his teacher. ”Looks like you are not as weak as I believed you are human. But you are no match for me.”

”Then tell me this Biosk, why am I having you sweating to the point where you might just pass out right here in the courtyard?”

A tick mark appeared on Biosk’s forehead. Biosk focused chakra in his eyes. Sanosuke’e eyes popped opened as he realized what Biosk was about to do. Letting go of his hand that was restraining Biosk’s fist, Sanosuke focused on senjutsu chakra building up in his hand to a fine point. This was his Hidden Blade jutsu, a technique he created long ago, but this time it was powered with senjutsu so it was longer and sharper. He leveled the chakra blade against Biosk’s neck before he was about to unleash the beam of ration chakra at Sanosuke in the form of laser beams. It was quite the sneaky plan that Biosk had chosen to do. He would have killed Sanosuke in an instant if he didn’t stop the jutsu from coming right at him. But with Sanosuke’s blade made out of senjutsu chakra ceasing all movement from Biosk, Sanosuke knew that he had the upper hand.

”I got you now. If you don’t want me to slice open that neck of yours Biosk, I think you should give me the win to this spar. I think I’ve earned this one” Sanosuke smirked at his teacher. This time raising the blade so it was lightly touching gliding up and down Biosk’s face. This Sanosuke could tell angered the giant knight greatly. He wanted to strike back, but if he did Sanosuke would take out his throat with one quick slash. So this was definitely Sanosuke’s match, he had won. Biosk let the raiton chakra die in his eyes so he can continue glaring at Sanosuke with hatred in his eyes. Sanosuke looked back at Biosk with a smirk. ”Looks to me that you’re not so strong now is it? To think that a human beat you, maybe you should get your head out of your ass and stop treating like I’m sort of second class piece of trash.”

Sanosuke withdrew his chakra bladed hand from Biosk’s throat and snapped his fingers so the chakra that was building up would surely die out. He began walking away when Biosk grabbed him by the collar and yanked him down on the ground. Sanosuke whipped around to look at Biosk. ”What the hell was that for?” Sanosuke asked angry at Biosk for throwing him on the ground like a rag doll.

”I do not need be lectured...” Biosk growled low under his breath at Sanosuke and pointed at him with venom in his eyes. ”By a pathetic human like you!”

Sanosuke clenched his sword as tightly as possible when Biosk said that. Ever since day one, this guy had it for humans and Sanosuke had just about enough of it. Standing up on two feet, he glared back at Biosk with his own annoyance with the wasp ex knight in his eyes. It didn’t matter to Sanosuke that Biosk was a towering behemoth who looked to be about 7 feet tall, this guy had to be taught some respect. ”You know what? I’m just about sick and tired of you badmouthing humans all the time. We can be just as superior as you Wasp Knight, we’re not so weak and defenseless as you like to make us believe” Sanosuke retorted.

Biosk snorted ”You humans are an abomination. Always starting war with each other, and are too dimwitted to even have peace between each other even though that is a mutual achievement for your race. And you like me to treat you humans as equals? Please I’ve heard about your past; how your own family was torn away by the hatred of you humans.” Biosk said maliciously. That struck a nerve to Sanosuke and he knew the expression was on his face. Biosk sneered and continued ”I wonder how much blood was shed? How did it feel to kill your own father with your own two hands? Were you delighted to hear that your mother went insane and decided to end her miserable life as a human? And how about that sorry excuse of a human that risked his life to save you from his own bo-“

Biosk’s words were cut short by a massive punch to his jaw. It was so strong that Sanosuke’s own forearm bone was threatening to snap in two. Biosk was sent to the ground crumbled and trying to pick himself up from the ground. He looked up to see Sanosuke looking down on him with a fist full of senjutsu chakra that was blazing with chakra. His right eye had the symbol of the demon and was looking for blood. Unlike last time, Sanosuke did this by accident. This time Sanosuke had planned everything out and was fully aware of what he was doing.

”If you ever speak of my lost ones again you sorry excuse of a Wasp Knight, I’ll kill you!” Sanosuke said in a low voice. Pressure coming from his chakra was radiating throughout the whole kingdom. Biosk looked like he was struck in the face multiple times but he stood up and looked at Sanosuke blasting his own chakra in retaliation. ”My loved ones may have been killed, but I’m not the one who is so weak that he can’t move on and stop blaming humans for his own faults!”

Biosk clenched his teeth and looked as though he was about to strike. Senjutsu chakra was rolling off his skin as he was seriously close to fighting Sanosuke to the death. Sanosuke was perfectly fine with this, he was sick of this guy always putting humans down as though they were underneath everyone. Gathering senjutsu chakra in his other hand, he prepared to attack Biosk with a chakra blade that was embedded in his hand. From the looks of both warriors, they looked as though they were about to play for keeps with their lives. Only one of them could survive, and the other would be left 6 feet under the ground. They were both fine with that, as long as the other could no longer breath they were perfectly content with putting down their lives so the other may die.

”Enough! The both of you!”

Both Biosk and Sanosuke looked to see who called them and shut down their chakra that was slowly ascending new heights that must be drowning those who are inside the building from their own chakra. Titania was looking at the two disgusted at what she was seeing. She saw two perfectly good warriors who were about to rip each other to pieces because of their differences. The way she looked at Sanosuke made him feel ashamed. She may have expected this from Biosk, but she never would have expected it to come from Sanosuke. It’s not like he could blame it on the raw emotions of senjutsu chakra that filled his brains when he was starting off. He had spent nearly a year training and so he should know well by now how to call on senjutsu chakra without the intense emotions clouding up his decisions he makes.

Taking a deep breath, Sanosuke allowed his chakra to die down from his body. The intense emotions that was fueling his body also died down as he turned to look at Titania. Biosk however refused to power down. He looked as though he was going to take this time of confusion to strike Sanosuke down. Titania clenched her fists that were rested as she was standing with arms crossed against her chest. ”Biosk. I have given you a direct order from your commanding officer. I instruct you to yield to me at once!” Titania barked at Biosk with authority in her voice. Biosk growled at Titania as he knew that he was forced to obey. Titania had a trident on her back and unlike Biosk, she was not exhausted from training and had a weapon that was on her. She could kill Biosk anytime she wanted to. If Biosk chose to fight against Titania, it would certainly spell death for him.

”Commanding Officer you say? I thought your highness stripped me off all rights and duties as an officer. Meaning I do not answer to you like a dog any more Titania!” Biosk roared at Titania.

”I have orders from the Queen that she would like to speak with you in private. You are to leave at once.” Titania said curtly. With a wave of her hand, she signaled the dismiss of Biosk from her presence. Biosk glared at Titania and she returned it for a long hard minute before he stormed off into the palace so the he may go to the throne room where he would speak to the Queen as she so ordered. This left Titania with Sanosuke who was looking at him with a disapproving look. She had taught Sanosuke how to better manipulate senjutsu so that he may be able to defend himself against Biosk’s attacks. But to see him use it in the way that made it look as though he might actually try taking the life of another wasp warrior was something that Titania would chastised him about.

5085/9000

Biosk walked briskly into the throne room to see that the Queen was sitting down on her throne waiting for Biosk to come in. The Queen was trying to keep her strength up so that she can prepare for what she must do. Biosk has gotten too out of hand and it was up to her to put an end to his brutality. Even though not many people took her seriously in the daytime, she still had to make sure that everyone knew that she was still Queen. She hated to rely on her grandmother’s assistance to deal with Biosk when she was too weak to do so. That guilt ate at her, and it made her feel ashamed. She would always rely on her grandmother or her older sister to come to her aid when she was the Queen. She’s the person that people were to come to, not the other way around.

That’s why Melike asked that her sister send in Biosk so she may talk to the warrior alone and cast judgment on his actions. It was something that she had to do herself. She could already feel her grandmother scream at her from the inside that his was a bad idea, but Melike had to see it for herself. It was something she had to do, so she silenced herself off from her grandmother’s pleads to stop this duty of hers that she cannot ask for help from her grandmother or older sister. She closed her eyes to slowly beg her grandmother for forgiveness.

”You called for me your majesty?” Biosk said mockingly as he bowed to his Queen as though he wasn’t really taking her seriously at all. After all this was just the daytime form of the Queen. She’s harmless during that time. Melike looked at Biosk sternly and signaled him to arise. Biosk shook his head and just chuckled. He didn’t even bother giving Melike the proper salute that she must be given by anyone who steps into her presence in the throne room. She pardoned Sanosuke because he’s an outsider, but she was too used to everyone who was of wasp descent doing it by instinct it made her feel like less of royalty.

”I would appreciate if you w-would give me the respect that I deserve Biosk” Melike said trying to muster up all the courage she could. But the knight had laughed in her face and rolled her eyes. This was not going according to plan, how could he take her seriously about his attitude to Sanosuke when he won’t even give her the proper respect that he deserves? She shook her head and bit down on her lips nervously. She would have to let that act of insubordination, as her older sister would describe, go unpunished so she can proceed with what she wanted to talk to about.

”I believe that you are going too far with this training with Sanosuke Flynt from Kumogakure. Your training with him is coming close to an end, and I believe now I must judge you on your actions against the people of our village. Your crimes cannot go unpunish-“

The sounds of Biosk’s laughter could be heard as he laughed hard at what Melike had said. It caused the Queen to stop speaking all together and become quieted before the convict she was casting judgment upon. Biosk looked at the Queen snickered loudly until he calmed down into a subtle tone of speaking. ”My crimes? Little girl I have protected the village more than. I do not need a child to cast verdict on me. I have taught the human how to use senjutsu, and I have come to a realization…” Biosk said in a low tone voice. Senjutsu chakra was gathering around his body when he was done speaking. It was leaking all over the kingdom, slowly. The throne room seemed to have a low tone buzzing sound as this happened. The Queen looked around her as she tried to comprehend what was happened. But she couldn’t make heads or tails of the situation.

”Biosk, what are you doing? Please stop this at once. Melike begged her knight to stop this. The fear in her voice obvious as she struggled to talk. But Biosk began to walk slowly to her, he extended a hand and snapped his fingers. In a flash of black light, a dagger appeared. Just like everything that was made, it was crafted in a beautiful manner so it looked as though it was shaped by the gods themselves. It made Melike nervous, he was actually going to try and kill her. ”Please, I beg of you. Don’t do this Biosk.”

Melike tried to focus her chakra to raise in her defense. White chakra was building up around her body as a way to defend herself against the oncoming attack. The chakra was shaping a dome around her body. If only she hadn’t casted aside her knights, they would have stopped Biosk from attacking her. She would have lived, all she wanted to do was just live so she can apologize to her sister for being too stubborn. Her grandmother was screaming at Melike to run away. Even though she is unable to take over Melike’s body in the daytime, she was making futile attempts to do so anyways.

Biosk approached the shield and switched his grip in his knife so it was reverse grip and rose it high above his head. The senjutsu chakra that was developing in him went to his hand and he jabbed it down against the barrier. The barrier had some resistance to the strike. White lightning popped as Biosk’s knife barked and buckled angrily to get the blood of the Queen. The shield was slowly beginning to unravel and dissolve. It was only a matter of time before the shield broke. Melike look in horror as the knife came closer and closer to shattering her barrier.

The sound of glass breaking could be heard as the knife went through the barrier. The knife kept coming and plunged into Melike’s stomach. The sound of an earsplitting scream could be heard as Melike was stabbed. It was the final moments of the Queen’s life…

6125/9000

The scream traveled all the way in the kingdom as Sanosuke and Titania were in Sanosuke’s room. They went to the room where Titania can lecture Sanosuke about why he should not fight against Biosk. She had good points but still, Sanosuke was still angered with the wasp knight. It just wasn’t fair that Biosk had to take his anger out against humans on him. He was just being a child when he knows his actions weren’t right. Before this anger he had was muzzled since Biosk was stronger than him, but now that he can fight him one on one, he wasn’t afraid to show the Wasp Knight how he really felt. He had been dealing with Biosk’s revenge for the past year in the village and there was only enough shit he could take before he let loose his frustration. Sanosuke tried telling Titania that but she quickly put down his reasons for he was acting like a child as well.

The scream came in the room like a wrecking ball; it caused Sanosuke and Titania to whip around the door in shock. Both people were shocked at how loud the scream was. It was coming from the throne room, and sounded like the Queen. When Sanosuke looked at Titania, all color was drained of her face. She looked as though she had seen a ghost. This was the first time that Sanosuke had seen Titania like this. She looked as though she couldn’t move and was petrified in her spot. It was up to Sanosuke to get her moving so they can investigate what happened in the throne room.

Shaking her arm, Sanosuke made sure that her startled eyes were on him. Her eyes were darting all over the place, it made Sanosuke nervous that he might hurt Titania. ”Titania, we have to go. Keep it together.” Sanosuke said in a clear voice so that Titania would hear him. Titania finally focused her vision on and slowly nodded before pulling as much of herself together as she could. She was still shaken for some reason that was unknown to him, but she at least could move now; that was good. When she looked as though she was prepared for traveling, Sanosuke nodded and together they ran towards the sound of the scream.

They were running quickly past the halls in an attempt to check up on the Queen. Titania was running as fast as she could, senjutsu chakra was pumping through her legs to fuel her body and will herself to become faster. Her body was slicing past the wind as she ran so fast that it was as though she was running on the air itself. Sanosuke tried his best to catch up to her by pumping senjutsu chakra into his legs as well. So there were now just a streak of silver and a streak of white running through the halls of the castle. Sanosuke and Titania had finally reached the door to the throne room and together they focused chakra into their fist to give them both strength. The two refused to slow down for a second and just when they were in reach, Sanosuke and Titania threw their punches at the door at the same time. The golden door flew open, both parts of the door broke and was sent spiraling to different parts of the throne room in a dust cloud. Sanosuke followed Titania into the throne room and stopped before the door at a sight that left both Sanosuke and Titania horrified.

On the throne was Biosk wearing what looked like a crown and had on the armor that Sanosuke was sure was confiscated. There was knights that were along the side of him and before the throne itself was a bleeding Melike with a wound on her stomach. She was surrounded by a pentagram that was drawn in blood. The sight made Sanosuke sick, and on her forehead were different markings that looked like runes and other mystical symbols; they looked as though they were etched in with a knife. She wasn’t moving at all, and her skin looked cold. She was barely breathing. Even though Sanosuke wasn’t a medical ninjutsu specialist, even Sanosuke could tell that she didn’t have much time in her. Sanosuke didn’t know what to say, Melike was always so kind to him and knew that she did not deserve this death. Sanosuke glared at Biosk who had a smug look on his face as he was enjoying the expressions on their faces.

Titania didn’t even bother looking at Biosk. Her attention was more on Melike. Titania’s eyes were wide open and just shook her head over and over again as though she refused to believe what was happening. Her head shaking grew more and more ecstatic as she continued to look at the lifeless body that was on the ground. ”No…this cannot happen….It cannot…” Titania whispered to herself. Her volume was getting louder as she kept looking at the body. She couldn’t believe what she was seeing her sister was dead. Tears streamed down her face, it happened once. There was one tear then another one, and another, and another.

”No…this cannot happen….It cannot…”

”No…this cannot happen….It cannot…”

”No…this cannot happen….It cannot…”

Finally she ran out to the body but was intercepted by 7 knights. Her eyes were streaming with tears as she ran to recover her sister’s body from the circle that was beginning to give off a red glow. Even though the moon was out, Melike’s body didn’t change into the spirit of the first Wasp Queen. She must really be dead then. The knights restrained all movement by Titania as she tried her best to get herself free from the bindings she was in, but to no avail she couldn’t. ”UNHAND ME! MELIKE! MELIKE! OPEN YOUR EYES! PLEASE I BEG OF YOU!!” Titania screeched while crying her eyes out. She tried and tried her best but she could not get free from her captives.

”Don’t even bother Titania. You cannot interrupt my crowning,.” Biosk laughed as he came down the throne and walked down its steps so he can walk in the circle. He lifted the face of the dead Melike and kissed the dead body passionately. He made sure that he was making eye contact with Titania as he kissed the body. Titania looked in horror as her little sister’s body was molested and degraded by her former subordinate. Her face changed into fury as she tried her best to get free but the knights were not letting go.

He broke out of the kiss and threw her head down on the ground harshly so that even more blood from her body. ”It was rather easy really. Persuading all the knights to come and join my cause to overthrow this weak family who had ruled the Wasp Village.” Biosk sneered as he looked at Sanosuke and sneered at Sanosuke’s angry glare. ”I must say Sanosuke Flynt, it was your arrival that made things easier for me to gain the support I needed to overthrow this child. You see; I’m not the only one who deeply hates humans.”

Sanosuke shook with anger as Biosk looked at him. ”Biosk…how could you?!” Sanosuke snarled at him.

”Because I’m sick of us being afraid of humans! We have to live our lives in this abyss. We have to feed of some artificial layer so we can get sunlight, while you humans get to enjoy the sun’s rays. You will not stop us from this mission human!” Biosk shouted back. He laughed like a mad man as he licked some of Melike’s blood from his body. This made Sanosuke clench his fist to the point where his nails were digging into his palms and drawing out blood.

Biosk looked at Melike and smiled evilly. He snickered like a mad man ”I just have to wait until midnight. So I can kill the spirit of the foolish Wasp Queen, then I can take over! I will change the Wasp Village for the good of the next generation!” Biosk exclaimed loudly.

This has gone far enough. Sanosuke gathered as much senjutsu chakra into his whole body. Before he was just focusing senjutsu chakra on parts of his body, this time it was his entire body. He had never done this before, but now wasn’t the time to doubt his skills. He was going to make Biosk pay for his actions. Blue chakra rolled off his body as he was focusing more and more senjutsu chakra in him. The chakra from the nature was flooding into him. He could sense and feel things that were so delicate that it almost made Sanosuke feel bad about taking their chakra. ”So you have until midnight huh?” Sanosuke said. He had his hair cascaded on his face when he was looking down on the ground.

Navi came out of his pocket and was flying in front of Sanosuke. ”Sano! You can’t go into sage mode! You never done it before! You’re gonna get hurt!” Navi pleaded with Sanosuke to stop what he was doing. But Sanosuke ignored it, the senjutsu chakra was powering him up and had his chest thumping. It caused him pain for doing this. His body wasn’t used to this much pressure he was building up at once. It caused Sanosuke to get on his one knee for support. He grunted as he got on the ground.

Biosk laughed harder at that as he watched Sanosuke struggle. ”You can’t even use sage mode! What hope do you have little human?!” Biosk laughed out loud. The knights were laughing as well at Sanosuke. Sounds of Titania crying was heard even throughout the laughing. They weren’t even thinking of him as a threat. There was no way he could fail. If he didn’t do something, Biosk would get his way. It had to be him, Titania was too distraught to even think straight. Sanosuke focused more chakra until finally he could stand.

He glared at Biosk with hatred in his eyes. There was a single silver strip on his face that went across his eyes. His eyes no longer had pupils as he just stared at Biosk. His body was full of senjutsu chakra to the point where he was radiating the chakra from his body. In a quick flash, Sanosuke appeared behind one of the guards and quickly took one of their swords from their belt. Just as fast, he got another sword from the other knight before they even knew what happened. When the knights took their attention briefly from Titania and onto Sanosuke it was already too late. Spinning quickly in a tight circle, Sanosuke slashed down all the knights in that instant. He had spun so tightly that the knights were cut in half so that torso and the legs of knights all hit the throne room floor with thuds. Titania was left there on the ground trying to comprehend what he just saw.

Biosk looked as though he was hit in the face by a glove when he saw what Sanosuke did. Sanosuke brought down both swords and struck the glowing circle of blood. Cracks developed on the ground destroying the foundation of the circle’s contents. The glowing stopped as the circle was destroyed by Sanosuke. He glared at Biosk who had gotten out of his thrown to face Sanosuke now. ”Titania…get Melike’s body out of here. I’ll deal with him…” Sanosuke ordered the commanding Wasp officer as he whipped the swords in the air to ready himself for Biosk’s strikes. He would kill him now.

Titania looked at Sanosuke in awe. All she could see is his back, she just nodded and went to retrieve Melike’s body. Before Sanosuke was a very irritated Biosk who was radiating his own chakra. His was silver in color and was buzzing loudly. Sanosuke blasted his own chakra in retaliation, buzzing could be heard from Sanosuke as well. The two were set to finish the fight they declared with each other in the courtyard. This time, they both knew that it was for keeps and there would be no one to interrupt them. In a flash, both of them took off at each other at breakneck speeds. A streak of blue was coming in at a head on collision with the streak of silver that was Biosk. Buzzing so loud could be heard from the throne room as the two warriors ran at each other, the buzzing caused the glass windows to shake and tremble.

”BIOSK!”

”SANOSUKE!!”

The two clashed weapons. Sanosuke swung his swords as hard as he could at Biosk’s sword that was now back to him. Biosk has also swung at Sanosuke so that the clash was large scaled. There was an aftershock of wind that blasted outwards. It caused everyone in the radius to be pushed back. The clash caused every window to explode into tiny pieces. Sanosuke and Biosk clashed swords again and again as they kept striking at each other. Each slash was parried against each other. Sanosuke was sending slash after slash after Biosk and blocking Biosk’s strikes at the same time. Biosk was doing the same thing. He weaved out of the way of each slash while fighting.

Sanosuke was sending chakra into his arms as well to power his swings. The buzzing intensified with each swing as he swung outwards towards Biosk. But each slash was parried so that the slashes hit things that were not Biosk. Biosk was doing the same thing with his slashes so that he was aiming to kill. Scratches developed on Sanosuke’s body as he kept on slashing. Sanosuke’s body was burning with a buzzing sensation as he kept on slashing. One of Biosk’s slashes must have made small indirect contact with his body. Sanosuke took the opportunity to slash at Biosk’s ribs. The knight saw this and jumped backwards to avoid being killed. Sanosuke focused senjutsu chakra in his sword and explode it outwards causing a loud bang in the air. Biosk’s eyes widened at that and couldn’t believe what just happened. Sanosuke could see that blood was drawn from his sword.

Although he got first blood drawn on him, he retaliated by shedding some blood of Biosk’s body. Biosk’s body twitched as he jumped back. Sanosuke leaped backwards as well to get away from the wasp knight. Biosk had a long gash on his armor where his sword went through to seek flesh. A slash mark was on Sanosuke’s sides. The two didn’t take any time to rest and immediately dashed at each other at high speeds. There were slashes after slash that were resounding from the two slashes. Raising his swords above his head, Sanosuke spun in tight circles that were so fast that from the outside he looked as though he lost all physical form and was just a spinning ball of blades that was coming right at Biosk. Sanosuke roared as he kept slashing at Biosk over and over again.

The knight smashed Sanosuke aside with brute strength. Sanosuke was shocked and flew outwards. His body was tumbling in circles. He couldn’t maintain his body position. He went through one of the statues of the Queen. Pain came from Sanosuke when he made contact. That didn’t slow him down in the least. He slid on the floor and the waited until he was steady before he leaped back. Senjutsu chakra was pumping through his veins as he was running on air based on how fast he was going. It made him feel as though he was getting torn away by the strong winds. He didn’t care, because at this moment he was going to put an end to Biosk’s life.

When he got close enough, he plunged his sword outwards towards Biosk’s stomach as a way to open up his guard. Biosk read the move and swooped his sword to intercept. Metal clashed with metal once more as the two swordsman were not giving an inch. Chakra blasted outwards from the two as they tried to break the other with the use of just chakra. Biosk kicked out at Sanosuke and got him in the ribs. Bones cracking could be heard in his ribs as he was sent flying once more. Stabbing Sanosuke’s swords down, he stopped himself from skidding.

Biosk glared at Sanosuke and walked over to him. He was just standing there and kicked at Sanosuke’s ribs. He was kicked upwards to the ceiling. A scream could be heard from Sanosuke as he collided with the crystal hard ceiling of the throne room. ”This is not over Biosk! I will not be defeated!” Sanosuke exclaimed. Chakra was at the bottom of his feet to keep him up there holding his swords. No matter how many cuts he would receive, he would put an end to Biosk’s rule. He could not stop him now…Sanosuke knew he could do this.

Senjutsu chakra erupted form Sanosuke’s body. It blew up within him as he roared in pain. He felt as though his body was going to get ripped from the inside. No he would not falter, he would not quit. He would succeed. He absorbed so much energy that Sanosuke believed that he was taking all of the energy from the whole Wasp Village. The ceiling exploded from all the senjutsu chakra that he was standing on. The chakra that was inside of him, was intensified as the symbol of his akuma blood appeared on his right pupil. The veins in his head was pumping loudly and was visible from anyone who was looking at it. ”BIOSK!!” Sanosuke howled in vengeance as he ran at the knight at breakneck speeds. His body was being torn into pieces by how much chakra he was pumping into his body at once.

Biosk saw this and looked as though he could barely comprehend what he was seeing himself. Dark chakra enveloped Biosk as he gathered a large amount of senjutsu chakra around him as well. His body grew in size from the chakra he was absorbing. Larger and larger his muscles grew as more and more chakra was pumping through him. His armor plates on his torso exploded outwards into tiny bits. He looked more like a monster now. It fit him correctly as he glared at Sanosuke with hatred in his eyes. It was something that the two of them shared; they wanted more than anything to end the life of the other. There was too much at stake for them to make a mistake. ”SANOSUKE!!” Biosk roared. The ground turned into craters as he pumped more senjutsu chakra into his body for the sake to kill him in cold blood.

Crouching low to the ground, Biosk took up more chakra from the environment and leaped upwards at incoming Sanosuke who was coming at high speeds. Sanosuke was now just a blur of blue and white light as he came at Biosk hard. A stream of black and grey light was coming that used to be the body off the traitorous Biosk. Each blur made contact with each other in a collision that caused an explosion from the chakra grinding against each other. The buzzing was so loud that just the buzzing was destroying the palace from the inside. It made Sanosuke’s ears pop in and out from the loudness, but he ignored the sensation. All that mattered was to finish off Biosk. Both warriors roared as they tried their best to get the better of the other. Jumping backwards, to have Biosk applying more pressure to him. He was fending off each and every one of Biosk’s slashes furiously. He snarled as he got slashed against the side and stabbed at Biosk’s calves. Only one of is swords made it through, and so Biosk howled as he was stabbed clean. It didn’t stop him from moving at all. Sanosuke knew that it wouldn’t stop him and so he pulled it away and kept on slashing at Biosk.

The whole time Sanosuke was getting oushed back. They were fighting in midair the whole time, each slash was shaking the foundation of the palace as they continued fighting. They were both receiving wounds from the other. Sanosuke wasn’t exactly running in this fight, he was standing his ground. There was now a resolve in him so that he would not be afraid of death. The fear was no longer in him, he was going to take Biosk on and finish the fight between him. Even if it meant that he would sacrifice his soul and body, he couldn’t let Biosk do this. He refused to allow him to, it wouldn’t be right. The whole Wasp Village were kind and allowed him to learn their style of fighting even though he was just an outsider. He would avenge Melike’s death and fight for Titania’s sake.

With one slash Sanosuke swung at Biosk’s arm and another slashed that was aimed towards the lower part of Biosk’s arm to stun the giant man. He pumped even more chakra so that the buzzing would be even louder than it usually was. It reminded Sanosuke of a banshee’s screams. It made Sanosuke want to cover his ears and just wish that there would be no more fighting so he wouldn’t have to deal with the sounds. If it was painful for Sanosuke who was emitting the sound, it must have been agonizing for Biosk. The Wasp knight screamed in pain as the sound had just blasted his ears. Sanosuke sneered and swung his blade making sure that it struck true the man. Blood splashed on Sanosuke’s face as he pushed Biosk to the wall increasing the buzzing as his blade worked deeper and deeper into Biosk’s arm.

Biosk screamed in pain and howled as he withered in pain. His screams of agony made Sanosuke roar in triumph as he pumped more chakra to have Biosk scream in pain. Now the tables have turned, Sanosuke was making the wasp scream in agony. He was going to make him pay for what he did and that was a promise. Biosk grabbed his sword tightly in his hands and thrusted it upwards so that it would go right into Sanosuke’s stomach. Sanosuke cursed as he saw the blade coming at him. He had commited to much into stabbing Biosk and so he was in a bad position and could barely dodge it. He jumped out of the way, yanking his swords out of the giant wasp’s arms so that he can escape. He wished that he got away from the attack unscathed. The sword found his way to slash at Sanosuke’s sides. The blade was thrusted in with enough velocity so that the sword broke one of Sanosuke’s ribs immediately with just  a stab.

Jumping back, Sanosuke held his wound as he wouldn’t dare take his eyes off his enemy for a second. Blood oozed from his wound as he heaved heavily. His head was swimming and his vision was fading in and out. He was seeing colors, was it like this to activate the Buzz Effect? He had used it for the first time and now it was as though he was hearing it with twice the volume. Chakra was still spilling out of his body even though he was standing still and not fighting. His body felt hot from the chakra. Sweat began to beat down his brow. He just noticed that his shirt was torn into pieces so that he was wearing just strands of clothing. His pants were being cut as well. Sanosuke looked at Biosk to find that he was looking pretty bad himself. He had a large gash on him and blood was oozing from him as well. He was holding his sword with his now hulking body. He barely could breath himself, it was as though every breath he took in was a battle itself. The cut mark where Sanosuke had literally tried to saw off of Biosk’s body was just spewing blood. There were other cuts on his body that was still crying out in blood colored tears, as was Sanosuke.

Each cut on Sanosuke’s body stung, the bigger ones felt as though hot brass was burning against his skin. Sanosuke heaved as he tried to right himself up. The fury in his eyes not going away for a single second despite the pain. No matter how much he wanted to, he had to see this through to the very end. He had to kill Biosk, even at the cost of his own life. The tattered remains of his shirt was obscuring his view as the chakra was blasting everywhere still. That will not be to his advantage. Sanosuke took a quick second to rip off his shirt so that he was standing there with the only clothing that was on his body was the black pants that he always wore. Clothing was what was holding him back, the tattered remains would not be what would make it or break him with this fight. He will continue on with this fight.

Both of his arms screamed in pain as they rose holding onto the blades that Sanosuke was used to holding. They were already broken, if it wasn’t for Sanosuke running chakra into the blades to have it connected it would have shattered long ago in this fight. Sanosuke increased the amount of chakra he was focusing on so that the energy was going wild around his body. Biosk followed suit after getting himself ready for another clash. The two warriors were both tired and looked as though they were running on fumes but were not about to let the other know that they were so exhausted that they could barely stand.

They attentions were firmly fixed on each other as they blasted more senjutsu chakra into their bodies. Even though it was tearing themselves into pieces, they would not stop at all. More and more chakra gathered into themselves as Sanosuke and Biosk dashed at each other again in a frightening clash. The clash held all their emotions they had for each other. Jealousy, Fear, Pain, Sorrow, Frustration. The strongest was hatred. The amount of hatred the two of them had for each other was strong enough that one could slice through it with a knife. Chakra so strong came between the two as they were pushed back once more by the powerfully after shock that threatened to destroy the entire palace from the center. Sanosuke and Biosk hit the walls of the palace with blows that had the palace’s ceilings begin to crumble. Crystal chunks fell down the ceiling and onto the floor. The palace was falling apart now from all the fighting they’ve done.

It didn’t stop them from still clashing again in a show of sparks from metal meeting metal in a head on collision. Sparks flew as they dashed at each other and retreated again before meeting other once more briefly. All there was two blurs that were savagely trying to rip each other to pieces. Now the two of them weren’t concerned with defense; the only thing that was currently on their minds in means of strategy was pure attack. The only time their blades would meet is when they tried to attack the same area as the other. Every other time, they allowed their bodies to get cut so that they could hopefully get closer to killing the other with a more potent wound with their sword. As the battle progressed, the cuts would get more and more severe. It got to the point where every part of Sanosuke’s body was covered with cut wounds made by Biosk’s blade. Falling debris tumbled and attempted to get in their way but it didn’t bother the two at all in their exchange of blows. They would slash through the crystal and continue slashing at each other. Sounds of metal striking against metal was drowned out by the buzzing that could be heard from the two large chakra sources.

The fight was slowly making itself upwards to the infinite ceiling of the palace. The two were flying upwards on just the pure power of the chakra they were absorbing from their surroundings. They must have been taking the life from the minerals that composed of the material that was in the foundations of the palace. As a result, the palace was collapsing. Sanosuke and Biosk struck higher and high against each other. Their fury of slashes rained the sparks of the blades meeting and also the raining of blood droplets that came from both Sanosuke and Biosk’s ripped bodies. Although Sanosuke and Biosk could both fly, they chose to run along the gigantic crystals that were falling down and continue their fight by running. Whenever they got to the end of one crater of material, they would hope and continue their fight in midair until they encounter yet another crater where they would start the whole thing all over again. It didn’t matter where they would go, as long as Sanosuke had the chance to kill Biosk he would take any chance he could take to kill the wasp knight. Sanosuke roared out in anger as he took the time to actually push against Biosk’s attack. His swords were like tiny blades that would not cease to stop moving until their prey was killed. Snaosuke’s arms felt like jelly with all the slashing he was doing. If he wasn’t using chakra to guide his movements, Sanosuke was sure that he would have lost this fight long ago. Sanosuke panted as he kept on slashing at Biok as he felt more and more beads of sweat hitting his face with ever slash he made at Biosk.

As blade met against blade, Sanosuke made sure that he wasn’t going to be the one who would lose this battle of strength and will. Sanosuke screamed out as he got slashed more and more by Biosk’s blade. It wasn’t as though Sanosuke wasn’t delivering slashes of his own, every single one of Sanosuke’s blades slashed outwards and dug into the Wasp Knight’s skin. As debris came raining down upon the palace floor, droplets of blood kept on raining down on the floor as well. His weight was increasing as Sanosuke could feel his body getting heavier. Black spots were coming into his vision and leaving at its own accord.  Dropping his guard for a single second would surely lead to his death, so to Sanosuke it was either continue fighting or get killed. From the look of things Biosk was tired but somehow he had the energy to continue going on and on with his attack. Sanosuke roared as he got hit with a slash. Sanosuke used his arm to take the blow.

”I will not lose to you!” Sanosuke roared out as he gathered more senjutsu chakra into his body. His body felt as though he was being ripped apart. The effects were agonizing as he was trying his best to not black out from the fighting he was doing. His vision went black for a second but he could still feel his arms swinging wildly at Biosk while holding his weapons in an attempt to try and deliver a blow to Biosk’s body. Each and every strike was hitting parts of Biosk’s body that should have taken down a normal man, but Biosk kept coming. On the opposite end of the fight, Sanosuke was getting sliced up by Biosk’s slashes. The slashes were having an effect on Sanosuke’s movement. The pain was getting too much for Sanosuke’s body could take. He tried to focus on trying to keep up with Biosk’s attacks so he could do some damage.

Even though Sanosuke’s strikes were hitting marks that normally would kill someone else, Biosk was taking each hit. How? How can he not be affected by any of my attacks? I’m stabbing him and slashing him! Why can’t he just stay dead?!” Sanosuke thought frantically. Pain began to relieve from his body for a split second as he noticed that he was now slashing at thing air and not skin nor was his blade coming in contact with Biosk’s sword. All there was were falling debris of crystals as he tried to look for the wasp knight but he was nowhere to be seen.  He had to be there somewhere. Sanosuke looked up to find that there was only falling debris coming down on the rest of the people. And there was no one surrounding him in his immediate radius. So it made Sanosuke frantic of where he might be located.

Looking down, Sanosuke saw the ground of a crater he was on crack open. It made Sanosuke’s eyes widen as he tried to get away. A sword erupted from the crater held by Biosk’s hand as he flew himself out of the crater. Chunks of crystals blasted off from the crater as he came closer towards Sanosuke. Before he could even escape, a sword was jammed into his legs that was powered with senjutsu chakra. It made Sanosuke scream in agony as both legs were stabbed clean through with just one sword. His whole world got turned upside down when the sword was pierced through his skin. Biosk sneered and held his sword firmly in his hand while Sanosuke was still speared through the leg with the sword; the wasp knight roared with triumph and heaved his sword upwards with Sanosuke still attached to it. Biosk let go of his grip and let the Kumo jounin go flying through the ceiling of the palace. The ceiling was a glass panel of what looked like an angel.

(2187+565)/2000 Buzz Effect Training Complete

At top speeds that felt as though Sanosuke was shot through a canon. The velocity was so strong that his ears popped. He was going so fast upwards that it felt as though nothing was slowing him down. His body bashed right through crater after crater of crystal walls of the wasp palace. He felt his back get destroyed by the pounding crystals, and even then his body wouldn’t slow down even in the slightest. He couldn’t move his body for some reason. The only thing he could move was his eyes and he drifted it lower to the sword that was embedded in his legs. Biosk’s sword. It must be filling his body with senjutsu chakra that was foreign to his body and causing his whole body to be stunned by the chakra that wasn’t absorbed by him. So Sanosuke could do nothing as he was sent flying right through the glass panel of the window ceiling.

Glass erupted when his body was sent through a frenzy of pain. Everything went in slow motion as he was sailing through the skies. Senjutsu chakra was no longer flowing through his body as he was just flying upwards to the sky by Biosk’s throw. He had failed. He had failed Melike in seeking vengeance for killing the Queen, he had failed Titania as well to avenge her fallen sister and the Queen of the fairies. He screwed up and thought that he could be able to take on someone who had more experience. He was too overconfident in his new abilities and because of this, he was going to die. He was so sorry that he had let down his new friends of the wasps. This was perfect, his body was just a cut post. He screwed up.

The sky was so high when Sanosuke was just soaring upwards. He also wandered how many other people he failed for not being able to stop Biosk. Most likely Biosk would kill Titania and then lead an attack against the outside world, starting with Sanosuke’s home village: The Village Hidden in the Clouds.  He had let his whole village down and it was all his fault. There was no feeling his arms as he tried to reach his body upwards to try and reach for the moon. To think he would die and not see the actual moon with his own eyes instead of an artificial reflection of it. A shadow zoomed over Sanosuke and casted a huge shade over his body.

When Sanosuke looked up, he saw the hulking large body that was Biosk’s. His skin was now dark violent purple with rage as senjutsu chakra rose to meet his anger. Biosk laughed as he cupped both his hands together and rose it over his head. ”You never had a chance at all human. Now prepare to DIE!!!!” Biosk roared and slammed his cupped fist downwards as hard as he could. Senjutsu chakra was leaking through his fist as it struck down against Sanosuke’s stomach. Every bone in Sanosuke’s body broke with that impact as he felt all the wind in his body give out. Blood erupted from his mouth as he felt as though he was going through hell as his body was battered. Sanosuke at first believed that his body was much too numb to feel the blow. But the strike was so strong that it destroyed any feelings of numbness he was experiencing in his body as he was sent spiraling downwards to the ground.

His body was stopped moving upwards anymore and was just going downwards to the center of the palace. There was no stopping his decent as he was just like a falling star coming to the ground. Biosk’s purple chakra was in his body and tearing him apart the whole time guiding him downwards even faster. The chakra was navigating Sanosuke to run into any large crystal crater Sanosuke came upon on the way down. Finally Sanosuke crashed against the palace floor hard. There was a shock wave of dust and debris that erupted when Sanosuke hit the ground in an explosion of crystal, dust and other minerals that were in the ground. When the dust cleared, Sanosuke’s vision was distorted and just seeing stars. When the sword was pulled out of Sanosuke’s body by Biosk, Sanosuke gained back the little amount of control in his body. He lost his power in sage mode and could not go in it any more. He barely had enough chakra to cushion his body from the fall that would have killed him.

Looking upwards Sanosuke saw that a figure of black and purple was seen shining brightly with senjutsu chakra. It was obviously Biosk that was just standing there letting Sanosuke have the time to collect his bearings before coming down on the injured jounin. Pain was keeping his body from moving in any way that he wanted. This was just perfect, now he couldn’t find a way to get out of this. And because of this, he was going to die. Even after learning the power of sage mode, Sanosuke was still too weak. He couldn’t protect what mattered to him. A comet of purple and black was coming down on Sanosuke’s injured body as he laid there in a crater that was 20 feet deep with a 10 meter radius in the throne room. The wasp knight was attempting to end things between the two right there on the spot. There was no telling how much the pain would be, but Sanosuke knew he was going to die. Closing his eyes, Sanosuke waited for the pain to come in and put him out of his shame he was feeling at this moment.

But the final blow never arrived onto him. Now unbearable pain that would send him to the afterlife, no blood. Not a single drop came from his body. Maybe he was already killed from the blast but his body hasn’t registered the pain yet. No that was absurd in every way Sanosuke could possibly think of. Opening his eyes, Sanosuke checked his surroundings to see what had happened. Sanosuke was shocked to see he was surrounded by a blue ball if light. It was large enough to cover every part of his laying body that was so badly beaten. It was shielding Sanosuke from Biosk’s final blow. That was the only thing that was preventing his death. Sanosuke knew full well that he didn’t create the barrier, he was all out of chakra in his body. But for a split second he tried to figure out who was shielding him. The sensation he was beginning to feel around his body was something familiar.

”Navi…” Sanosuke weakly said in shock.

Biosk’s fist shook at the barrier trying to break it by focusing more and more senjutsu chakra in his fist to shatter the shield. Veins popped up in his forehead and his fist as his attack was still being held at bay by the small fairy. ”You foolish child! You sacrificed your physical form just to protect this pitiful human?! Well prepare to die then!!” Biosk sneered as he began to focus more and more chakra. Sanosuke could feel Navi’s will begin to weaken. This was bad Sanosuke could tell the shield was going to break. He knew what would happen if the shield break. Since she sacrificed her physical form to protect Sanosuke, she gained this imaginable power. If that shield breaks, Navi will be the one who is struck down not Sanosuke.

Tears came down Sanosuke’s face. They stung like hot lava washing down his face. ”You idiot…” Sanosuke begged weakly as he could do nothing but watch Navi put off her own demise. If Sanosuke could move in the slightest he would clench his fist in frustration. He hated this so very much. He couldn’t do anything to protect his friend Navi. They were already so close. The past year he spent with Navi met the world to him. In a land that Sanosuke himself wasn’t comfortable in, he could say that he needed a friend; Navi became that friend he desperately needed. In the year they spent together he learned so much about the wasp. Her hopes, her dreams, her amibitions. So many things she wanted to see that Sanosuke promised he’d show her. That’s when he remembered something:


Showers of blue washed down the now weeping body of Sanosuke. The barrier shook violently as Navi’s powers were shaking violently threatening to be broken any second. He tried to get back up but his body was screaming in pain and threw him back down on the ground violently. Sanosuke looked at the ground and clenched his fist as tears came down on his clenched hand. This is just perfect. Not only did I let down myself and the village, but I’m letting my own inner self down. Navi’s in pain because of me, because I couldn’t finish what I started. And even then, she can still protect my sorry ass…” Sanosuke said to mentally get himself up. His body was trying to push him back down on the ground as he tried to get back up.

There was a crack in the barrier that was developing. Sanosuke’s eyes opened in shock. Biosk was breaking through. If this barrier breaks, Navi’s going to die. A scream of pain could be heard when the cracks were forming more into the barrier; these were Navi’s screams of pains. ”NO!!!” Sanosuke roared as he got himself back on two feet. He wasn’t going to let it end for Navi just because he was too weak. Blood erupted from his body everywhere. Sanosuke screamed out in pain and absorbed every bit of senjutsu chakra that he could get. The chakra that was going into his body was ripping his body in pieces, but Sanosuke didn’t care.

Take my flesh. Take my heart. EVEN TAKE MY SOUL!! Sanosuke screamed as more and more chakra was coming into his body. The mark of the demon appeared on his right eye pupil. Sanosuke screamed as he got powered more and more with every crack that was developing in Navi’s barrier. ”GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF HER!!” Sanosuke roared in fury. His body was now just pure senjutsu chakra. Dashing at Biosk he phased right through the barrier and grabbed Biosk by the throat. He rocketed upwards while Biosk was spasmming trying to desperately escape his grasp. But his hand was stuck deeply into Biosk’s throat. Sanosuke had one hand on Biosk’s throat with his fingers rammed into his throat so he wouldn’t escape. Biosk kept on punching Sanosuke to let him go but no punch was slowing him down.

The two were sent flying upwards to the sky. The cold night air was pushing against Sanosuke face as the two were sent flying upwards. There was a streak of silver pushing back a streaking of purple in overpowering speeds. The night light was colored by those colors. But mostly the night was colored and washed with a silver glow. They flew so high in the sky that they were in the outside world. Spinning tightly around in circles that were so tight, Sanosuke could hear Biosk scream as the wind that they were creating was slicing his face and skin to ribbons with multiple cuts. Finally Sanosuke let go of Biosk and sent him flying upwards to the sky. Biosk was tumbling upwards with no way to slow down his increasing altitude or right himself.

Bring his hands to his chest, Sanosuke focused all the senjutsu chakra he developed into one point that was right between his cupped hands. The point turned into a ball and the ball was filled with raiton senjutsu chakra. The ball was getting larger and larger. Sanosuke rose his hands up so the ball could get larger and larger. Sanosuke roared as he was absorbing more and more senjutsu chakra into the ball of chakra that he was holding in his hands. The ball was so large and buzzing around. There were no more markings on his face when he held this large ball of raiton senjutsu chakra.

”DON’T YOU EVER FUCK WITH MY FRIENDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Sanosuke roared and with all his might he threw it at the tumbling Biosk. The ball was rocketing towards Biosk in speeds that Biosk couldn’t keep up. The wasp knight looked at it in disbelief. He couldn’t believe what he was seeing. In a scream in panic the ball absorbed him killing him on contact. The ball exploded in a blast of mass destruction that blew Sanosuke backwards and sent him back to the ground. As he fell downwards, his vision was turning black. If death was all that waited for him, he would not mind. He saved the Wasp Village from Biosk’s rule and avenged Melike’s death. His consciousness went out like a light just like the rage he had for Biosk when he killed him just when his body hit the ground once more of the crumbling palace of the Wasps.
