Previously on Ookami no Monogatari:

Sanji and Zero are getting destroyed by the Triunfs but it seems like Diana and Nami are getting the upper hand on the fight with Isabel the witch. None of them can afford to make mistakes or they'll die for sure!

-

Diana glared at Isabel. She glared back.
“Do you really believe you can defeat me?”
“Hey,nothin's impossible!”
She laughed loudly.

“Nothing is impossible?That is the most idiotic thing I ever heard!”

“Well,Diana's right!Nothing's impossible if you put your spirit into it!” said Nami,taking a step forward. The witch frowned.

“Please. In the end it doesn't matter. The strongest always win!It's not about anything else but strength!”
“Shut up!” said both girls at the same time. Isabel sneered.

“That's very impolite.”

She shook her head.

“Well,manners won't matter when you're dead!”
She threw a big ball of dark energy towards them. Nami jumped to the side while Diana ducked. The blond jumped forward and tried to kick the witch. She grabbed her leg and threw her out the window. Diana grabbed on to the wall and jumped back in. She ran towards the witch,but suddenly started running backwards. Isabel raised an eyebrow.

“What the-”
“DARK CLOUD TEMPO!”

Once again,Isabel was shocked. Literally. The dark clouds that zapped her disappeared slowly. Isabel turned around and glared at Nami.

“Why,you little-”
*WHACK!*

Isabel fell to the ground. Diana smiled wrapping the metal chain around her arm.

“Where did you get that?”
“I took it out of my coat.”
“Nice.”
“I know.”

“AARGH!”
The witch got up and glared intensely at the girls. She grabbed them and slammed them against the wall with monstrous strength.

“I don't believe this!Two little girls trying to stop me!Well,you can't!YOU CAN'T!”
“Let go of them!”

*SLASH!*

Isabel backed away,letting Diana and Nami slide down. Nami coughed up some blood and looked up. Zero was standing there,beam saber on hand. The witch glared at him.

“How?How could you defeat Arthurus?”

Zero smiled.

=Flashback=

Zero clashed swords with Arthurus. He was bleeding heavily and it seemed he wouldn't win.

But just when Arthurus was about to pierce his torso,the red-clad robot pierced his heart.

“A-amazing...You defeated me robot...”
“...Well,it wasn't easy...”

Arthurus body disappeared into darkness. Zero frowned deeply,staring at the spot where the warrior's body was before.

“But I don't regret any of it.” he calmly said,walking towards the large,heavy oak door in front of him.

=End Flashback=

Diana crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow.

“Seriously?He was stronger than you?”
“Yeah.”

“Well,okay. Wait,where's Sanji?”
Zero's chin dropped.

“I totally forgot him!Do you think he's alright?”
“I have no freaking idea.”
“Uh,guys?”
Both of them looked at Nami. She was pointing towards something,her face very pale.

They slowly looked to where Nami was pointing and went pale too.

Isabel was alive.

She chuckled slightly,straightening herself and glaring at the trio.

“Now,now,now...What did I tell you?Witches are hard to kill!”

“Go to hell.”
“You wish. Now,now,let's see...How shall I kill you?Slowly and painful?Or quick and really painful?”
“One...”

“Maybe I should toss you into boiling oil?”
“Two...”
“Or cut off your limbs one by one...”
“Three!Now!”
Diana,Zero and Nami dashed towards the witch. Diana kicked her and she flew high. Zero jumped after her and swung his sword,slashing her across the torso and she went flying down.

“Nami!”
“It's up to you!”

The redhead gulped. She swung the Clima Tact and shouted:
“THUNDER TEMPO!”

The witch was electrified once again and fell to the ground,black smoke going up.

Nami held her breath for a few seconds and poked the black mass.

“...I think she's dead...”

“...”
“...”

“Uh,that's a good thing right?”
“Well,yeah...”
“Sure. Great job Nami.”
The redhead smiled. Suddenly,loud cracking sounds were heard.

They looked to the origin of the sounds.

A large,ancient mirror was there,the glass breaking. Red smoke started coming out of the fissures. Diana took a step back.

“What the...”

The smoke began to take on a humanoid form. Nami shivered.

“I have a feeling this isn't good.”
All the smoke began to dissipate. Zero gulped as he saw the figure that was hiding behind the smoke.

“It can't. It can't be good.”

It was a tall,muscular man,wearing dark blue armor with gold rims. He had wild,bright red hair with dark blue streaks. The armor had a royal blue cape attached and he was holding a big scythe.

Diana skipped a heart beat.

“N-n-no,p-p-please” she stuttered “Not him...”

Nami placed a hand on her shoulder.

“Diana,are you okay?”

“No...I...He...It can't be...”

The man laughed.

“Seems like you know who I am. Well,I'll introduce myself anyway. I am...”
He grinned widely.

“Zarion,leader of the Triunf!”

Diana looked like she had been shoot.

“N-n-no...”
“Since you obviously know who I am,then why don't you explain the story to your clueless friends?”
Nami and Zero looked at her.

She took a deep breath and started talking.

“In a age of mighty warriors and horrible wars,there was a trio of warriors know as Triunf. Gwydion was known as the Triunf of Knowledge,for he was very intelligent. He spent his days studding and practicing the art of using a whip. Arthurus was known as the Triunf of Poetry,for he was very eloquent. He spent his days writing and practicing swordsmanship. Finnaly...”
Diana gulped and looked to the ground.

“Zarian was known has the leader of the Triunf,for he was very capable of leadership. He spent his days counseling the king and practicing the art of using a scythe. One day,the mighty Triunf were called to a war. They fought and saved the lives of millions of thousands of people but at their own loss. Their earth bodies died but their spirits remained in Limbo,in order to come back once again. And that's the story of the Triunf. Part of it at least.”
Zarian chuckled again.

“Yes,part of it. There are thousands of our adventures,right?”

Zero took a step forward and placed himself right in front of the warrior.

“So,what do you want?”
Zarian smiled evilly.

“The world.”
He dashed forward and swung his scythe at Zero. The robot flew back and crashed into a wall.

Diana looked at him,mouth agape. She turned around and glared at Zarian.

“W-what the...”
“Let me explain what's going on because you're obviously confused.150 years ago,Isabel captured our spirits and we became slaves to her. She turned me into a mirror so she could use me as a counselor. Gwydion and Arthurus became her body guards. But during the time I was a mirror,my full force came back. And the whole ordeal cleared my mind. Why be a hero?Why be a martyr if you're strong enough to conquer the world?So I decided. I would just use Isabel as a pawn in my plan.”
Diana clenched her teeth.

“W-what...”
“Please,don't tell me you believe in being a hero?”

He raised his scythe.
“Well,that won't matter when you're dead.”

Nami shivered.

“D-Diana!I can't move!”
“W-what?Hey,neither can I!”

Zarian smirked.

“Oh,that's because I blocked your moves with a spell. I can only use it once every 50 years,but it's totally worth it.”

He raised the scythe high,preparing to slice off their heads.

“DON'T TOUCH THEM!”

The warrior got hit with a massive,powerful kick to the head.
Diana and Nami fell back as the spell stopped working.

Sanji straightened himself and looked at the “thing” he was on top off. He took out a cigarette and put it on his mouth.

“Bastard.” he muttered,lighting the cigarette.

=Flashback=

Sanji coughed blood as he got up. Gwydion looked at him.
“What are you going to do?”
“You know perfectly well.”
“True. But I want to hear it.”
The blond smirked.

“Tch.”

He jumped forward and kicked Gwydion with all his strenght. The multi-eye warrior disappeared into darkness. Sanji coughed some more blood as he walked towards the oak door.

“I hope everyone's okay.”

The cook wiped some blood from his face while he walked.

=End Flashback=

“Now,who's this guy?”
Suddenly,Zarian got up. Sanji jumped back and landed next to the girls. Diana snarled.

“Long story. I'll tell ya later.”

Zero forced himself to get up and walked over to the rest of the team.

“That bastard and his damn element of surprise.”
Diana laughed and glared at Zarian.

“Listen up,Zarian of the Triunf!Sure,you almost killed us through isabel and sure,you're stronger than any of us.”
She smirked wickedly.

“But why don't you just try and defeat us as a team?”

This is the real final showdown. The great,powerful Zarian against four half-dead teens.

Is it obvious who is going to win?No,knowing these four,anything could happen. Even the impossible. If they don't give up then they can win!
Keep fighting guys. Fight for your lives. Fight for your pride. But,above everything else...

Fight for those who cannot fight!
