Chapter 68: The Battle Begins! Hakim vs. Hana!
Hana, silhouetted by the dark shadows of Aybara's secret base, sensed her minions returning with a powerful force that she couldn't identify. "Did they find him…?" she thought to herself, looking up at the massive waterfall that stood before her. Suddenly, both Yuba and Yara rushed back into the base accompanied by the one and only Hakim Faimasa. "Good. Now, get the hell out of here!" Hana exclaimed, pulling out her sword. "This is my battle, and you have no right to partake in it!"
Both Yuba and Yara rushed out.
As silence invaded the base, Hana smiled. "Long time no see, you unworthy bitch. I heard you got executed 5 years ago, but sadly that wasn't true. Now, we're standing before each other once again, ready to battle. Hakim smiled. "You may have gotten away easy like last time, but I'll be sure to give you hell this time!" he exclaimed. "I am Hakim Faimasa!" Hana sighed. "You may have manipulated my family, but I'll be sure to get them back on my side once this BATTLE IS DONE!" she exclaimed, charging up to Hakim at rapid speeds. Hakim, pulling out his 5 foot long scythe, smiled vigorously. "BRING IT ON, HANA! THIS TIME I'LL BE SURE TO ANNIHILATE YOU!" Hana smiled, igniting her sword with a massive charge of fire. "LET'S SEE WHO STANDS VICTORIOUS FROM THIS BATTLE!" she exclaimed, charging up to her long time enemy.
The battle had finally begun - and it would be the final battle of the two parties.
Meanwhile back in the city of Ironhold, a weary Michael emerged from the sheets of the bedroom only to find himself in the clutches of Trya's arms. "What the hell happened while I was asleep!?" he thought to himself, looking at his new friend. "I guess she was tired too…" Suddenly, Trya opened her eyes, finally fully recovered from her drainage of sleep. As she recognized her hands on Michael, she quickly swept them away from him. Showing a face of disbelief, she smiled nervously. "G-Good morning, Michael! Well, I don't know how long we were out, but I fell asleep a minute after you! Anyway, what should we do?" Michael froze. "Hold on…" he said to Trya dramatically. "I need to…"
Suddenly, a massive burp was heard throughout the room, restoring the location of the plate Michael had used. Trya sighed in relief. "Phew, it's still intact!" she said, rushing back to the kitchen. As Michael opened the door to the kitchen, he grinned at Trya. "You look pretty sick. If there's anything you need, I'm here for you!" he exclaimed in happiness. Trya blushed. "T-Thank you, Michae…"
Followed by a loud thud, she was now unconscious on the floor, marking her recovery as unfinished. "I-I need to take part in the Great Dune Dash…" she thought to herself before blacking out completely. Back at the battle, both Hana and Hakim, wielding his scythe, both exchanged major blows, glancing at each other between each one. "I'll have you dead!" Hana exclaimed, charging back up to Hakim. As Hakim let out a grim smile, he dug his scythe into the floor, carving a giant rock out. Then, he attached his rope to his scythe, connecting the giant rock and the deadly weapon. Finally, all he had to do was add lightning. "I haven't done this move in years, but I think it'll easily kill you!" he exclaimed across the base. Before she could even blink, the scythe was less than one kilometer away from her, creating a minor cut on her cheek. Fending off the attack with her sword followed another counterattack with Hakim's right hand. Equipping another iron rope from his pocket, he used it to wrap both of Hana's legs, slamming her critically against the battlefield. As the dust settled from the fatal blow, Hana, now bleeding, emerged from the massive hole that was created. "I know my bounty is significantly lower, but I haven't fought anyone in a long time. I really think it's time to show him my true potential, or I'll never get my family back…" Suddenly, Hakim had used his scythe and his rope once again to extend the range, causing Hana to block it with her sword. Pulling something out from her purse, she smiled. "It's time for the ultimate counter!" she exclaimed, her speech echoing across the battlefield. Placing a smoke grenade between Hakim and herself, she rushed through the smoke, ready to return the attack Hakim had surprise attacked her with. "I've been going easy and taking defense up until now, but it's time I show you my full potential! You've taken Zara, Ganin, Huda, Guda, and EVERYONE from me! As a result, I only have one word for you - Sword of Phantoms!" Barely taking a fatal blow, Hakim was slammed into the walls of the base despite his block with his scythe. Coughing up blood, he smiled. "I'm happy you're creating a battle that's manageable enough for the both of us!" he exclaimed. Hana smiled. "Just one punch into the air, and you're finished, Hakim! I may have gotten away last time, but I won't run away this time!"
Back at the venue contained the mysterious man that walked through the hallways, although his intentions or desires were completely unknown. As he creaked open the door that held a massive label named "WORLD SUMMIT" on it, he had taken off his hoodie once again for the presidents to see.
Jayden froze. "A-Alex…? Is that really you?" he thought to himself, rubbing his eyes for confirmation. Alex smiled. "Jayden, I have a proposal for you. I WANT TO JOIN TEAM ENTITY!" he exclaimed throughout the halls. As the current chaos on the mountains continued, sudden rumbling could be heard from further down the mountain. Was it going to happen in one trip? Was UUDKA's awakening coming?
