4th Reikon Squad

Asahi calmed down, "Japan just saw the strongest Reikon yet there is. Now, we'll also see the strongest awakener in history, shall we?"

=====================================================

Aiko gasped for breath as more and more of her bones snapped one after another. She hated that it could reset everything on a whim. It's too tiring, just-

The sky shattered then the ground formed a void. Then, it brightened and shaped our real world. She stood up after she had lay down for a few hours. She took a moment to fixate her eyes back into reality. Then she saw Ryoka standing in front of the Reikon that had terrorised hundreds.

Ryoka closed in the Reikon who was still frozen speechless, "Shall we play once again? This time, it'll be fair and square," he smirked.

He leapt back. Now that the table has turned, humanity will take a step closer to peace. We'll use every card we have, even the wildest there is. We'll break the boundary to stay alive, that's what makes us humans.

"Try to open up your realm, bud," joked Ryoka.

The Reikon clicked its tongue, he was being challenged. A vast shadow expanded where the Reikon stood. Before it reached any of the Responder, it stopped.

"Why did it stop? Come on, don't hold back for us. Though, you're doing us some favour," laughed Ryoka. He grinned and gave a clap.

The shadow from nowhere slowly absorbed back into where it started.

"YOU MONSTER!" The Reikon yelled in spite.

"Oof... That's my line," Ryoka scoffed.

The other Responders just watch while standing frozen and speechless. This ain't our match; even from the start.

"Guys, don't just stand there. You're a Responder, the saviour of Japan. Prove it to this foul Reikon," provoked Ryoka.

A cold breeze swept through every Responder who heard the call. They gathered their confidence and took a step forward. Then, the harmonious choir echoed; the sound of awakeners united, chanting at the top of their abilities.

"Gravity authority,"

"Earth authority,"

"Shadow authority,"

"Strength authority,"

"Well god knows what authority," chanted Ryoka.

For once, Kyoto became a full-fledged battlefield; where both were playing.

The Reikon screeched in disgust. It dashed to give a mighty punch to Ryoka.

Instead of budging away, Ryoka stood and laughed.

Hinata appeared out of nowhere and served another a direct punch on each other's fists. A soundwave of the boom is produced from the impact. He smiled and gave the Reikon a deserved punch to the torso and it was thrown back into a ruin of building.

It was a bit dark. The shadow called upon the one with authority, Hota. Hundreds of punches landed on the Reikon for each moment it stayed under the authority of shadows.

Again, it was thrown out and got back to its feet on the open road. Like all the humans felt back then; he's powerless against the force, not the match one sane would be looking for. I'm being played like a dummy.

The ground shook and rose to a new height. The Reikon looked around for-

A massive piece of ground flew towards the Reikon and smashed it; flying the Reikon to the opposite.

"I guess it's my turn," whispered Aiko with a straight face. This is my debut as a Responder. Once again, she chanted; "Gravity authority-"

The flying Reikon managed to take a glimpse of her who was taking control of gravity. It saw that she gushed out a plentiful of mana; which intimidated it.

The gravity shifted back to where the ground punched it away. Instead of just smashing it to the ground, it shattered. Dusting the rotated ground away; that's just how powerful it is. The Reikon spitted out blood after the damage; which was just a handful compared to what was coming-

The Reikon remained airborne for a few seconds after the ground disintegrated upon impact. Then, Aiko played her wild card: Quantum gravity disruption.

The air produced a hissing sound, followed by a piercing yet gentle blast. Lastly, an awful scream and howl emanated from the Reikon.

They looked up to witness an ethereal yet horrific sight. The air appeared disturbed inexplicably. Gravity seemed to be battling between two opposing forces: one pulling downwards and the other upwards. It defied all logic of the universe; it was a phenomenon akin to what one might observe near a black hole.

Just imagine, that someone is trapped between these two fighting forces. It will shatter even the last of their bones. To the point, they might disintegrate to oblivion.

For a few minutes, the Reikon just floated in the air and crippled. The Reikon never stopped howling while it was happening. The Responders who were observing the object of calamity; they could hear loud snaps occasionally.

At some point, Aiko released both gravities back to their state since she almost collapsed due to the lack of mana. Ryoka who had leaned on a ruined building finally stood straight and stepped closer to the Reikon who was falling.

Right after the Reikon reached Earth, it gave the most awful and disgusting holler. It stood up uncompleted and announced, "HUMAN! THIS ISN'T THE END! I'LL BE BACK-"

"You thought we were letting you go? Just kidding, it's just something personal," interrupted Ryoka. The light snapped for a second;

His dark-blue katana was finally taken out and it gave a bright blue light illuminate from it. He scoffed.

The ground shook again; but this time, it was on a different scale. It also gave out a loud thump. Then, the sky flashed into darkness for a second.

From up top, news helicopters got to capture a bright blue light formed in a straight line. Then, it was silence...
