'Damn this is getting endless, how do I land a decisive blow on it?' Seras thought.

"Hmm, Your becoming slower, maybe I should turn those other kids as well!" The akuma grinned.

"I won't let you!" Seras launched off a steel tentacle.

The akuma lunched tentacles at Seras, she dodges the attacks and they trade flew blows, Seras trying her hardest not to use her Hagio when she got caught in the chest by a tentacle. Riku lunges forwards and cuts the tentacles that come his way and slashes his chi swords at them.

The tentacle akuma deflects this easily but then he picks up speed and his chi swords become more powerful as he hacks at her. He took a few steps back and swings his swords wildly chi slashes sent at them cutting through their defence.

They jump out of the way and get hit in the face by a fist made out of the darkness.

'What? again with farce!?' She thinks as the punch sends her flying.

In mid-air Seras charges with a knee, they block it hit Seras in the face and Seras kicks them on the sides as they both get sent flying.

The akuma get up first and lunges at Seras Riku intercepts, "Die!" They shot tentacle at Riku but he manoeuvres around it and slashes at them.

They deflect it then Seras punch her in the face with an electric filled punch, the akuma returned the favour and began trading blows like that until the akuma noticed that Seras was slowing down and kicked her in the chest at that moment Seras poured all of her remaining hagio into the pulse she place in the palm of her hands and slammed it on their shoulder.

The attack stunned her long enough for Riku to lunge forward and stab her in the chest.

"Ahh!!" they cry out and kicked him in the chest. He flew back past Sears and slammed against the wall and slumped on the ground coughing up blood.

"Riku!" Seras yelled and ran to his air.

At that same moment, the akuma got hit in the face by the fist of darkness. As she flew in the air and saw the rest and fired her demon curse at them.

The demon slayer managed to get out of the way, but Farasha and Ciara were petrified and couldn't move.

"Move you dumb fucks!" The wind demon slayer said.

Back in Morioka's mindscape, he looked annoyed at this fruitless attempts by this unknown entity.

'You... uh, ready to make a bargain...?' He said.

'And why would I bargain with the likes of you?' It asked.

'Because you've been trying for some time now no headway, plus you're invading my mind. So do you want to make a deal or not.'

'.......' There was silence.

'Hello? you still there?' He asked, unsure at this point.

'You have such a strong mental fortitude... you have gained my respect, so what do you wish for? Freedom? You know they would never accept you.'

He grinned, 'Hmm, I'm actually pinning after something else, actually.'

As the curse was about to hit and everyone else was either too weak to move or out of hagio to reach them in time Morioka's form completed and he was able to.

He got in the way of the curse and took it all, which did not affect him anymore, "Yare, yare, you guy's are a handful." He said the asha peeling off of his form.
