From what she could see, her Spirit Shard's soul flame was starting to dim, the flame losing it's beautiful brightness that made Kaika's soul stand out from the rest. [i]This is it?...I'm...I'm going to die now?[/i] Kaika thought as she heard the others come and try to save her life, but she knew that fate wasn't going to allow that to happen. When Kaika made the Spiritual Pact with Miki, she was tied to one fate only, and this was her fate, and she couldn't bypass her fate or else she would had been dead 2 years ago when the pact was made. Shedding a single tear, Kaika regretfully closed her eyes, holding the dying Spirit Shard to her chest. This was going to be the end of her story, and the regret began to wash over her as she never really did much to protect the ones she's lost already or that she'll fail to protect the ones she still has since she's going to die now. Slowly opening her eyes again, just before she would inevitably lose her sight, she saw that her sight was already dimming, she could barely make out who was nearest to her, and that was soon to be her hearing. It was time that she will finally suddenly succumb to her fate. As everyone was rather distracted by Kaika's sudden fatal injury and her eventual upcoming death, Yasu was ready to end this petty fight once and for all, taking flight into the sky with the help of his bony wings. Raising his scythe into the sky, the weapon was being powered up by the many essences of the Shadow Replicas and corrupted souls. It would only be a few minutes before Yasu would ensure that Kaika and possibly the others nearest to her will be dead. [i]Why can't I do anything else now?...as much as fate wants me dead....there's so much I could do to help....[/i] Kaika thought, and then remembered something. Her Lifestream, she still had at least one more use of that power, but then that would also end with her dead. No, she didn't want to be a coward and live, but die with at least the memory that everything is settled. "No....I don't want to die....not now...." Kaika spoke with a raspy voice, tightening her grip on her Spirit Shard as she struggled to at least sit up from where she laid, blood dripping from her open chest wound. "....I.....want to at least....die with....the final say....." Kaika said with a lot more force in her voice, and then her eyes widened with sudden persistence to live for a bit more,"[b]Lifestream!!![/b]" [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UTGVk3ebSc]BGM - Light of the Worlds[/url] Like an eruption, Kaika's body was surrounded in the purest of energy, given at least some time left on her remaining lifespan from the many spirits of the past Pact Bearers before her. Even if there was some people around her as the energy burst out of her, the energy was that controlled that the energy did not harm any of Kaika's allies, and even felt like it was refilling them with energy that originated from Kaika herself. Yasu only gave an interested smile at this, as if he was finally getting a challenge out of the Pact Bearer, but swung his scythe at them below and an arc of dark energy was sent down from sky and towards them. The moment they would be struck by the fatal attack, Kaika's golden broadsword appeared from the developing pure energy and easily broke through Yasu's attack. "Not even close Yasu...I'll tell you this...I will save Sota from your possession, even if it means that I'll die in the process..." Kaika's voice could be heard as the energy around her disappears, revealing that she had a new [url=http://static.canalblog.com/storagev1/mymymarmotte.canalblog.com/images/t-anime_girl.jpg]outfit[/url]* and that she wielded a second sword besides her golden one, and this second sword appeared like a rapier made out of light energy. This was Kaika's Lifestream form, the strongest form that a Pact Bearer can achieve, and since her affinity was Life Energy, this was the strongest Lifestream form out of the many other variations of it. The remaining energy around Kaika morphed into the form of angelic wings. [i]Knowing how much time I have with the Lifestream, I have only 15 minutes to force Yasu out of Sota's body, and then after that...I'm dead...[/i] Kaika thought as she waited for Yasu to make his move. "That's what I like to hear from you, I've been waiting for this for a long time Kaika!" Yasu said as he charged up his scythe with the most deadly kinds of darkness he could conjure up together, diving down from the sky and towards Kaika. (*the outfit is pink instead of black) ---- Alius's eyes widened as the barrier that he made from the replicated weapon was broken that easily. Desperate, Alius puts together a last ditch effort, but knew he couldn't die since every time he's killed, he would be sent back into the After World in dormancy for thousands of years. Exiting out of the replicated body of EMBR, Alius was once again that formless mass of shadows.

Just like that, the red eyes began to emit many blasts, beams, and even explosions of Shadow Essence energy. Back with Reimu, the red eyes would only multiply back once a single one was destroyed. The same kind of attacks came from the red eyes, releasing as many kinds of blasts, beams, and explosions from Shadow Essence energy.
