'Right, and thus uploading last chapter of clone thingy. Well, it took longer, cos I'm still not confident enough to write fighting scenes - -' However, later on gonna work on epilogue chapter ^^ Well, over 4k. word chapter is already too long and if I would added epilogue, then it would taken ages to write, plus, writing pure more or less romantic fluff is also not one of mine greater strengths ^^' *sigh* at least thanks for KOF AS, I had good visual aid to work, cos skill preview is such a life saver!

Shiro closes his eyes and deeply exhales. Once opens his eyes, this replica begins to confess ‘‘I want to be with you! But I cannot disappear like nothing happen. So, at least I need to say good-bye to my brothers and ‘Nagi. He wouldn’t be so happy about this, but maybe if I try to convince him…’’. However, all of sudden he widens his eyes and now pushes Kyo on ground.
The second didn’t passed and this brunette didn’t had time to react to this clone’s behavior. It was followed by loud explosion and Shiro painfully groaning. All he could do is watch how this replica fells on ground. It seems that from this clone’s back was covered in dark smoke. This replica was trembling yet he tried to warn his archetype ‘‘Run…the-there is no time..t-to…waste…’’.
Once he tried to reach out his original, he was interrupted by a threatening in cold and unforgiving tone ‘‘Why won’t you die already, you filthy trash?’’. Once Kyo and Shiro looked up, this brunette just says in barely hearable and pitiful tone ‘‘…Yagami…’’, however, it seems that this Kusanagi’s voice didn’t reached this redhead, who was now focused on his current target as he closes his ignited palm.
This brunette was dumb-folded and couldn’t move a muscle. He just silently watched how this fearful man was approaching Shiro. Unfortunately, it didn’t take long enough for this to realize who was this person. Now this doppelganger addresses this redhead in serious tone through his hard breathing ‘‘Purple flame…So, you are the one behind countless and vain deaths of my brothers! They didn’t deserved any of this…All they wanted is to live! What they have done wrong to you?!’’. These words only made Iori crack a smile. After this redhead sighs, he just mercilessly stares at this unfortunate creature.
Brief moment has passed, and now he declares his judgement in harsh tone ‘‘Is this your last words?…Then join them and DIE!’’ now he rises his hand and ignites his palm. The dark purple flame impatiently dances on his palm and just before launching his final attack, Iori was distracted ‘‘Yagami, STOP!’’. Kyo’s voice freezes him in same spot his flame disappear instantly. Now this brunette managed to get closely to this replica and while sitting on his knees, immediately wraps Shiro around his arms.
Of course, even this clone was surprised, but while his ear was pressed against his archetype’s chest, he just concentrated on Kyo’s heartbeat and his breathing. Was he afraid or rather worried about me, or so thought Shiro. However, Iori wasn’t so glad seeing this and now he began to scold this brunette ‘‘What’s wrong, Kyo! Are you been already brain-washed by this thing? Move! ’’.
This Kusanagi gives a flaring gaze at this redhead while replying ‘‘Then you might try to finish me as well, but in this case, don’t blame me, if you get burned! You sure are obsessed with me… And now you’re ready to shred anyone into pieces just because they look like me? You told that I am the only one, who can relieve your suffering and keep you alive! So, prove me and fixate only on me, you fool! Leave Shiro alone!’’.
Surely, Yagami was mad that this brunette was on the side of a pesky clone and now he growls at Kyo "Have you forgot that you were kidnapped so that these clones would be created?! Hell, these bastards deserve to die just from imitating you! Imperfect replicas, soulless dolls…because of them you were taken from me.". Even so, this Kusanagi was speechless at this honest confession and as he closes his eyes, he deeply exhales.
Upon opening his eyes, Kyo calmly replies ‘‘Perhaps so…But I cannot let you to harm Shiro. He maybe just artificial being, but he has what it takes to have a soul and deserve to live a decent life. Besides, if it wasn’t for him, then maybe you would be lucky enough just to find my dead body. So, you like it or not, but he is going with me. If anything, I’ll take responsibility upon him or his actions!’’.
However, such a heartwarming scene was instantly killed, by a familiar yet menacing voice behind Yagami’s back ‘‘So, this where our little Shiro is hiding…I warned you about what happens, if you try to run away. But it’s okay, since you even brought for me another toy to play with~’’. Even this redhead froze in fear upon this being’s presence and could barely breath. Once this creature touched Iori’s shoulder, this redhead turns his head to see what kind of ferocious beast was behind him.
Definitely, this creatures eyes were blazing with pure desire to kill yet his face holds rather a delightful look. ‘Nagi smirks and in playful tone addresses this redhead ‘‘Boo!~ Did I scared ya?~’’, this darker brunette’s chuckle echoed through Yagami’s ears. Even, if this redhead quickly brushes this fiend’s hand away, Kusanagi grabbed his hand, making Iori to face him. Despite this redhead’s furious gaze, ‘Nagi continued with a mockery ‘‘Aw, come on. Don’t be so shy~’’, as he hardens his grasp, this fiend threats ‘‘You know, I can blast your goddamn arm into pieces…But it wouldn’t be so fun, right?…RIGHT!?’’.
However, Iori only gritted his teeth and strikes this darker brunette into his guts. This redhead warns his opponent in cold and harsh tone ‘‘You’re so annoying…Did you fed-off by your pathetic life or what? Just get out of my sight, because I’m not interested in killing such a weaklings!’’ while Yagami turned to walk towards one certain brunette, ‘Nagi just placed his hand on his stomach and he was panting. Nevertheless, this vile being murmurs in pity voice ‘‘Hey, you shouldn’t have done that…you can’t ignore me like that.’’.
Even so, ‘Nagi closes his eyes and calmly addresses this redhead ‘‘Hey…’’. Now he rises his one arm into air while igniting his hand. The dark orange flame surrounded his arm, waiting for it’s master’s orders. Once this darker brunette clenches his hand into fist and opens his glowing crimson eyes, he launches a pillar of fire at his opponent while yelling ‘‘FACE ME WHEN I’M TALKING TO YA!’’.
Yagami just widens his eyes. On very last moment he counter-attacks with sending-back a pillar of purple flame at his foe. As these flames clashed together, they tried to swallow one another. However, Kusanagi charges through the mixed fire wall, leaving this redhead’s guard open. His punch to Yagami’s face sends this redhead flying-off good couple meters. As Iori was twisting in air, he crashes into one of the stone graves.
As Kyo tries to stand up, he was stopped by Shiro, who now tightly wraps his arms around the original and refusing to release him with all his might. Now this replica cries out loud ‘‘No! You must not interface! I cannot allow another death…’’, this clone continues with sad whim ‘‘Please, don’t fight where my brothers rest…it’s not the place for that…’’.
Meanwhile ‘Nagi was approaching his target while holding his hands in pants’. His eyes shines with excitement as a wild cat, which about to play with it’s prey before finishing it, even his walking step reminded one of the feline kind. But once he was close to Yagami, he turns his gaze towards Shiro and starts to scold him ‘‘Hey! Stop whining already! Besides, remember who took you when no one needed you. Who’s hand was feeding you?! So, why don’t you wait until it will be your precious Kyo’s turn?’’. After returning his gaze to this fallen redhead, Kusanagi delightfully smiles as Iori tries to push himself from the ground. Kusanagi looks down upon his victim, declaring ‘‘You know, I wouldn’t hit a person, who is lying down…But I didn’t told anything about not kicking them!’’, this darker brunette charged a strong kick into one of Iori’s sides.
This redhead only groans in pain yet he gives a furious look at this twisted person. Now he hisses at him ‘‘…you bastard…’’, even so, ‘Nagi just chuckles as it didn’t affected at all. He just stands and wait. However, Yagami managed to shakily stand up while swinging on his sides. After turning his head towards this Kusanagi heir, he addresses Kyo with such a rage ‘‘Don’t you even dare to interface! One step and I’ll kill you in same spot! I won’t forgive you even if you are dead! Just stay there, got it!?’’
Surely, these words not as much shocked as now hurts this brunette. That idiot and his stupid pride…even at times like this, why he have to be so stubborn? Like heck, he would let Yagami dying on him! Or so thought Kyo as he stared at this redhead. If it wasn’t for being trapped in Shiro’s strong embrace, then…But this clone was shaking and maybe it was his way of showing his concern. That’s why this brunette couldn’t leave his lookalike alone at the moment when he needed a support.
Meanwhile Iori just silently wiped blood from the corners of his mouth while giving a blazing gaze filled with hatred for this darker brunette. ‘Nagi just swooshes his hair as he taunts his opponent ‘‘You ain’t that good as I expected, but I’ll give you a credit for entertaining me for couple minutes. So, let’s finish this quickly, cos I have get rid-off other pesky prick.’’.
As this darker brunette closes his eyes, he cracks his knuckles without any worries. Even if it was a cheap taunt of Kusanagi, Yagami used this as a chance and quickly jumps back. Upon using a battle stance this redhead now launches a wave of purple flame at this ignorant fool. However, ‘Nagi masterly avoids this attack and rolls to right side. Once he about to stand up, Iori slides forward this fellow. Now this redhead sends Kusanagi into air by the upper claw slash.
The dark red liquid was splashing through the wounds left by Iori. However, ‘Nagi didn’t even touch the ground and now as this redhead with-draws his hand, he ignites couple of his fingers and drawing a purple line in air towards his foe. Now he launches a fire ball from left side then immediately repeated same from right side. As finisher, he crossed his arms in air and as bends down uncrosses arms, he releases a diagonal pillar of fire at ‘Nagi.
As he swallowed by the flame, this creature lets out a shivery screech until he falls like a rag-doll on cold ground. The dark smoke surrounded which surrounded Kusanagi slowly submerges into air. Yagami was barely standing and just tried to catch his breath. Was it over? Is he dead? However, all of sudden this redhead widens his eyes and covers his mouth. Blood has began leak out through the gaps of his fingers. Second later and he couldn’t stop coughing in blood. Shit, not at time like this…or so this redhead though.
Just when the things couldn't get worse, the sinister laugh echoed from darker brunette's side. As 'Nagi sluggishly tilts his upper body half, he announces in ecstatic as a madman voice "...It's so niiiiice~ Finally! A real thrill!~ More! I NEED IT MORE!~", now he smiles as wide as Cheshire Cat while giving a blazing gaze to his opponent.
Despite being thrilled, this darker brunette stands up and once noticing that his opponent was barely standing on feet and just shivering, 'Nagi told nearly in singing voice as he approaches Yagami with his spread arms "But that red really suits you!~ I really want to see more of it!...Hey, why don't we dye you in it?" .
However, even at state like this Iori refuses to give up, he was preparing for another attack, even if he might die. Now he charges at Kusanagi with all his might, but this darker brunette sends him off with upper punch. Once again Yagami crashes into ground with leaving splashing blood traces on stone graves. Despite that he gathers his remaining strength to stand up. The outside world was now non-existent for these two. It’s not over yet, not only one of them would be standing alive. Iori was so devoted into this one fight that even his own death would stand on his way and this darker brunette shares this mutual feeling.
Kyo knew where this is going and couldn’t stand watching this anymore. He understood that neither he, neither Iori would ever defeat this creature. However, he can’t let this redhead die just because of his stupid pride. That’s why he had to somehow distract Kusanagi’s attention and drag Yagami out of this fight. After this brunette clenches his hands into fists, he asks Shiro in serious yet chill tone ‘‘When I give a signal, act as quick as possible. Take him to the safer place.’’.
Of course, it didn’t took long to figure out about what person referred his original yet opposing ‘Nagi’s will was nearly impossible for this clone. More so, to help a person who slain countless clones without having a second thought…Yet it was a first and probably the last time when his archetype entrust him to do something or sees his as equal. So, which is the right thing to do? However, there were no time for hesitation and Shiro took his decision.
He releases this Kusanagi and stands next to him. Although, this replica in platinum honestly asked Kyo ‘‘Why do you have care about this person so much? Is he that important to you?’’. However, this brunette avoids this question and without looking back says ‘‘Please…There is no time for that.’’. Now this Kusanagi stands up and begins proudly walk towards ‘Nagi. As he was getting closer, this brunette launches an orange ball of at this creature. On very last second, Kusanagi with his hand brushes away this flame. Now this fiend turns his gaze at Kyo and yells in irritated voice ‘‘The hell do you want?! Just wait for your turn!’’.
This brunette chuckles and mocks ‘‘You left me all alone. Of course, I am bored. So, why don’t you finish me already? I know you wanna piece of me. So, come and get it!~’’. It seems that it helped ‘Nagi forgot about his formal enemy and now he cracks his knuckles while approaching Kyo, his eyes glows with hatred and madness ‘‘So, wanna die that badly, HUH?! Then…GO AND FUCKING DIE!’’ and launches wave of fire at Kyo. However, this brunette dodges this attack.
Meanwhile Shiro sprints towards Yagami, who was also distracted by Kyo’s sudden acting, and now once he was close enough, he grabs this redhead’s arm and throws him over his shoulder. Fortunately, this stubborn idiot was too weak to resist and now Shiro as fast as his strength allows him, drags Iori out of this battlefield.
Even so, ‘Nagi launches another attack again and again yet Kyo manages to dodge each time. Unfortunately, each time he gets more exhausted. Finally, this darker brunette jumps back and now slides forward this Kusanagi heir and now after grabbing him by his throat, ignites his arm. Kyo was sent by an explosion to the ground. He was groaning in pain and panting yet refused to turn his gaze from ‘Nagi. This brunette knew that he might not escape alive yet he mocks his enemy ‘‘…Looks like your opponent already gone…’’. Kusanagi slowly turns his gaze away and after noticing that both - Shiro and Iori were nearly gone out of sight.
Now this vile being grids his teeth and fastens his steps towards them. He swore to himself that he won’t allow these little rats to escape. However, this Kusanagi heir also didn’t planned to give up to someone who just look like him. Through hard panting he managed to get up and now this brunette tries to keep his balance. As Kyo gives a flaring gaze towards ‘Nagi, he says ‘‘I don’t think so, pal…’’.
He rises his crossed arms into air. As quickly he lowers his spread arms, he ignites his fists. After standing in battle stance, he dashes towards Kusanagi. Once he was close enough to his foe, Kyo quickly rises his ignited arm and grabs ‘Nagi by his throat. The explosion sends this darker male into the air and Kyo uses whirling up upper punch. One time, second time - this brunette was wrapped around bright orange line of fire.
After he gracefully landed on feet, this flame disappeared and his opponent fell like a rag-doll. Now it was a chance! Even if it is a temporally moment, this brunette ignored the exhaustion and feeling of having lead in his legs - he runs as fast as he could. It wasn't worth to wait and check if this unbeatable creature has finally lost. Kyo hoped that he may still catch up with Shiro.
Meanwhile, Kusanagi was getting up and about to chase down Shiro and his original, however, he was stopped by a getting closer familiar voice "Big Bro!". Upon looking behind, 'Nagi notices two clones rushing towards him. That's right, it seems that one of clones were in blue uniform and other in brown one. Once these two were next to their leader, Mero said in concerned tone ‘‘Big Bro, what happened? You look awful!’’, now Hoki kneels down to lend his hand, however, Kusanagi brushes this replica’s hand.
At moment he just takes a better look at himself and now he chuckles. One thing for sure, there were nothing left out of his white shirt - it was torn apart, plus the explosion also burned away good part of his vest and uniform. So, scratching wounds left across his chest along with some minor bruises or burn marks concerned ‘Nagi as much as his ruined outfit. At least he had some fun, even if it was for couple seconds.
Once Kusanagi stands up, he looks up to the moon as he puts his hands into pants’ pockets. His crimson eyes began to glow as he hopes that his request will reach that one person ‘‘We’ll meet again…So, don’t disappoint me or else you’ll die.’’ After sighing, ‘Nagi prompts this couple of clones to go ‘‘Are you going or what? You two own me good explanation when we reach home!…Fucking idiots…’’ and this duo gladly agreed with their Big Bro.
However, all of sudden this darker brunette's knees gave up on him. Of course, these twins rushed towards Kusanagi. After both bends down, Mero throws 'Nagi's right arm over his shoulder while Hoki does same, but with left arm. As both clones stands up supporting Kusanagi, they could hear his complains "T'is nothing but a scratch, you idiots.".
Nevertheless, Hoki calmly objects as they carrying their leader "Big Bro, keep this for later. First, let's treat you, then you complain. Besides, everyone are waiting for you.", this darker male lowers his head cracks a smile while he murmurs "...you are an idiots indeed...". And thus, these clones continued on their way to their home.
Upon reaching a familiar storage, they were greeted by clone in purple, who was leaning against the wall. Once he was noticed by his bros, clone in blue orders "Oi, Sakura! Don't you stand here like being kissed! Big Bro is injured!", even if this clone didn't quiet get along with Mero, but this time only he decided to forget their quarrels and now just to help their Big Bro.
Sakura rushed inside the storage. When clones and Kusanagi were inside, they noticed that there was already lying futon in the place where suppose to be 'Nagi's throne. However, on this futon there been already placed a bottle of medical alcohol, cotton and bandages. This replica in purple asks to lay down this darker brunette. Of course, all clones were gathering around to see how is their Big Bro. However, this replica gives a serious look like asking for do not disturb him.
After removing the upper part of ‘Nagi’s uniform, Sakura opens the bottle of medical alcohol and soaks a piece of cotton into it. When the soaked cloth touches the wounds on chest, this darker male suddenly sits up and hisses ‘‘The fuck you’re doing?…ya wanna kill me, huh?’’, however, this clone ignores this comment and now patiently replies ‘‘I need to clean it first.’’ and after couple brushes the clothe were already dyed in bright red and jet-black. It can’t be helped that he needed to get another piece of cotton and clean it properly. Even so, he didn’t liked these scratching marks and he already suspected one certain type - that same person, whom like any clone feared, that legendary rumored man with purple flame. However, this person will pay eventually for what he did to ‘Nagi, that’s for sure.
But for now, once this clone in purple was done with this area, he wraps around bandage over Kusanagi’s chest, making sure that the wound is properly covered. However, this replica sighs as he notices that there couple scratch marks and bruises on ‘Nagi’s face as well. After disinfection, Sakura places tiny piece of cotton and sticks it with medical plaster on this darker male’s cheek. Now Kusanagi asks this clone ‘‘Ya know you don’t need to overdid. I didn’t asked to go this far.’’, however, this replica innocently replies ‘‘Big Bro got into trouble and that’s why we are here to help him.’’.
As this clone in purple finishes with arms, while he wraps the white bandage around ‘Nagi’s arms, he asks in more concerned tone ‘‘But where is Shiro?’’ once he finishes with treating wounds, after short pause Kusanagi answers in cold tone ‘‘He is dead.’’. Surely, all clones were shocked about hearing these news and some didn’t knew how to react or act after that. However, this darker male continues ‘‘When I arrived that man called Yagami already finished him and it seems that your original has been terribly injured as well. So, in the middle of the fight he got scared and fled away. He even took Kyo with him. However, later I burned Shiro’s corpse to ashes. In the end, he died as he lived - being surrounded by misfortune and death.’’.
‘Nagi knew that telling the truth would not only hurt his ego, but these clones did not deserve to learn that Shiro was nothing more than a cowardly traitor. The less they knew, the better, now this darker male bitterly smiles and sighs. One of these replicas went to get a new clothes for him. After taking a dark gray uniform, Kusanagi throws a jacket over his shoulders. As he sits on his crossed legs, he announces ‘‘This is not the end! You may want to avenge our poor little Shiro, but Yagami is mine! He won’t escape from your Big Bro and this time I won’t play nice!’’ and now his loud laugh echoes through the storage while he was cherished by all clones. Now his eyes shines with excitement as he silently says in barely hearable voice ‘‘…When we meet next time, I’ll pull out your pulsing heart and crush it in front you…’’.

A/N: My, not sure, if it was good attempt at fighting choreography, but it surely, it was good practice and this nerd always up for learning something new xD Anyhoo, after epilogue gonna continue working on Vampire Killer au.
And thus, See you next time!~
