Yoru x Reader: I'll Return

Chapter 5: Battle in Mexico II

As you and Phoenix are putting up the fight, you were worried about Yoru. "Where the fuck is Yoru!?"
As you asked that you noticed a blue tear of space appeared behind KAY/O and out came a shotgun. You knew that it was Yoru due to the familiar blue colors and his draconic mask as he fully emerged out of the space time continuum.
"Sleep KAY/O!" Yoru shouted after he used two shotgun shots on KAY/O's head. KAY/O fell to the ground face first as a surge of electricity surrounded him after the fall.
"[Your Name], do you read me?" Brimstone asked through the coms.
You pressed the button on your watch and said, "Loud and clear Sir Brimstone. We managed to successfully disable KAY/O."
"Kid, don't be too sure. KAY/O has a self-resurrection protocol that kicks in each time he's down. I want you to keep searching for that site and disable any active Spikes that KAY/O has planted."
You nodded. "Alright understood. How long is KAY/O be down for?"
"You have an hour before his resurrection protocol kicks in. Now get going kids!"
As you turned off your communication gadget, you noticed that KAY/O is acting weird. He started to violently shake and his system started speaking in a monotonous tone, "Self resurrection protocol activated."
As you and Phoenix backed away slowly, Yoru shouted at them, "Well don't be idiots and move like turtles, just go to the target location! I'll handle him and buy you both time."
"Come on, [Your Name] you heard the man!" Phoenix exclaimed as he slightly nudged at your shoulder with his hand.
You couldn't help but look back at Yoru for a few minutes until you shouted, "Stay alive, Yoru! I-I'll hate you forever if you die! I-"

You tried to muster your last few words but you looked at KAY/O as he lifted himself in the air, almost nearing his final stages of his resurrection protocol. 

As you ran off, Yoru couldn't help but smile and turn back to KAY/O who finally landed and stood up as electric sparks shot out of his body. 

"Oh shit we need to get to our goal, Phoenix!" You shouted. Phoenix gave a thumbs up as he spotted a nearby motorcycle that is still in good shape. "Hop on, [Your Name]!"

You hopped on the back of the motorcycle and wrapped your arms around Phoenix's body. As the motorcycle veered off into the distance, you couldn't help but turn around, seeing Yoru's body disappear from view. 

"Don't worry, [Your Name], he'll be alright. You just have to trust him and believe," Phoenix said as he smiled.

"I sure hope so. KAY/O is a dangerous machine... he'll... he'll be killed!" You couldn't help but have tears.

"You... must've had a nightmare about Yoru dying huh?" Phoenix said gently as the wind nearly echoed through his voice. 

You couldn't help but look up after your eyes closed tightly due to the dusty wind. "Please don't tell him. Just between us, I... I think I have feelings for him that which he probably doesn't understand."

"It's all good, [Your Name] I understand. I promise, not a soul I won't tell him or anyone. I would pinky promise but I need to drive this thing, yeah?"

You nodded, "Right!"

As you both arrived at the destination, you saw that everything was in actual tatters. The ground was floating, the buildings were lifted in the air, and not a single life in sight. 

"What happened here?" You asked as you got off the motorcycle, running towards the desolate site.

Phoenix gritted his teeth in anger as he felt guilty. "We're too late, everything is destroyed because of the Spike. It must've blew up around ten minutes ago. KAY/O was stalling for time for this to blow up and let that Spike envelope everything in it's wake." 

"Let's just search for clues at this point," Phoenix explained as he walked forward of what's left of Mexico City's rubble. You followed up behind him as you were worried that there are more dangers ahead.
