We finally reach our destination. One of the unused underground railways, left unfinished due to budget cuts in the railway construction business. Yamiso and I have attempted to follow the directions specified to the best of our abilities. Luckily, we arrive ahead of schedule, so we can take our time navigating the abandoned maze.

"Down three more kilometers, then turn to the left." Yamiso says, looking at the map.

While he looks at the map, I look around us, checking for any cases of traps or upcoming ambushes. At least, I'm responsible for checking what Yamiso's superior hearing cannot detect.

We continue down the corridors until we come up to what looks like an entrance to a station. As one would expect, it's closed shut.

"Stand back," I say.

"You sure you can handle this?"

"Have some faith in me."

With my one good hand, I attempt to pull the door open. It's badly rusted and much harder to...

"Oren, get back!!!!"

"What!?"

In the nick of time, I jump back towards the nearest wall. A large tornado rips through the door, shredding it to pieces! The gale itself continues down the corridor for what I will guess is an extra kilometer.

(He's here...)

As soon as the tornado disperses, Yamiso and I dash through the opening created by it. And there, on the far end of the station, sitting down in one of the seats closest to a set of stairs, is Selot.

"It would seem," he says calmly, "that some people just don't know when to quit. You're wasting your time."

There he is. The man who constantly reminds me of my failures. How much of this tragedy could have been avoided if he didn't exist?

I suppose, it's time for my final blunder.

"Leave this one to me," I say.

"Don't be an idiot," Yamiso retorts. "You know just as well as I do that you cannot beat him."

"I'll say it once again: I have nothing to lose."

"Don't try to..."

"And besides, that still leaves those two brothers to fight. Two against one might be tougher, and we're running out of time."

Yamiso looks at Selot, then back to me. He then sighs and walks past me.

"You know, Selot is supposed to be stronger than most of the Keisetsu members, and they could probably beat those brothers single-handed as well. If this is how you wish to die, I won't stop you. Just buy me some time."

"Right."

Yamiso sprints towards the stairs. Much to our surprise, Selot remains stationary, letting Yamiso pass. As soon as he reaches the stairs, Yamiso turns around to say, "Good luck!", then leaves.

"Quite admirable to take me on by yourself," Selot says.

(Soul Conversion 5...BEAT!!!)

I rush towards him and prepare to hit him with a full power roundhouse kick to the chest. Before I reach him, he quickly blocks the blow with his gunbai.

"Do you really think you can beat me?"

"No, I don't. But I can do this!!"

I prepare another quick kick to his head. Unable to block it, he leans backwards to dodge the attack. He then jumps back until he is against the wall. Selot quickly unsheathes his sword.

"Must you continue to be a thorn in my side?"

"Honestly, the feeling is mutual."

"For revolution!"

"For my family and friends!"

"You will fall here!" we say in unison.

We push off and rush towards each other.

Our encounters. Our struggles. It all ends now.
