Koutetsujou no Kabane-Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress- (Ikoma Love Story)

09

As soon as you predicted it, the train reversed back into the station escaping from the titanic amalgamation of Kabane as you waited for them to fully retreat and seal the door. Slowly as the door closed, the monster was coming to a quickly until you snapped your right hand's finger creating a small incision and creating a wave of energy that pushed the colony back and allowed for the door to fully close.

"T-That was close!" yelled Kibito, "But how did you do that?"

"At the snap of a finger, things will always obey," you replied, "I told the dumbass that his plan wouldn't work."

"There is no way we can make it past that monster!" yelled one of the men.

"Got that right," you added in a boredom, "You guys gone and pissed it off."

"Yuki is right..." Ayame replied, "Maybe we could head towards Nagi Mountain Pass."

"We won't get any speed," Yukina replied, "If it were to chase us, we won't get away."

"Also," you added, "I will leave the train right here with Hikari."

"But you are our strongest defense," replied Ayame.

"And you're a greedy little princess that was just thinking about turning back and leaving two civilians behind you happen to be half Kabane and tried to use me to defend you from the Kabane," you replied, "What happened to them riding on the train to their destination, ever thought about their lives?"

"I-I wasn't going to leave them!" yelled Ayame.

"Sure you weren't," you replied sarcastically walking out of the cart as Hikari stood on the side and waited for you.

"How did you know such a weak attack would startle the colony?" Hikari asked.

"I didn't," you replied, "I just didn't want to get my blade dirty yet...but now you got a good size of your opponent."

"But how will I obtain control?" Hikari asked.

"The usual way," you replied while walking to the back of the train and entering the last cart as the train pursued to fight the battle and kill the Kabane in the front of the gates with sheer speed.

"Yuki," Hikari asked.

"Just remember who you are and your purpose," you replied kneeling down kissing his forehead, "The happy moments and the arguments."

"Happy moments..." Hikari replied.

The train stopped as some of them men ran down to the area with debris to rescue Mumei and Ikoma as ran back to the train as soon as possible.

"No matter what Hikari," you replied, "I will always love you."

Hikari looked towards you and nodded in happiness. The groans of the fuse colony roared throughout the station. You got up to check that the team they sent to save Ikoma and Mumei were safe but the fused colony was taking in corpses of Ikoma's and Mumei's kills.

You opened the latch of the train cart's roof to get a better visual of the sitation to see everyone putting up their defenses and stand their ground in trying to fight against the fused colony.

Soon the train stopped for Ikoma to finish lifting the crane and get prepared for the battle. You looked towards Hikari to see the look of determination on his face as you smiled feeling confident that he would be the best defense in saving many lives.

Once the crane was lifted, Ikoma ran towards the train before sneaking a glance towards you as you glanced back and gave him a quick wink to see him get red and embarrassed.
