Chapter 5: Get Rid of Him!

Haruhiko growled as he looked at Dadacha, "That damn Scarlet woke up!"

Dadacha winced, "Haru-chan! I-I didn't know he would!"

"I thought that you manipulated his mind so he'd become berserk and faint because of Scarlet!"

"Scarlet won't let his physical body die! He's the next God of Love..." Akihiko growled and Haruhiko frowned, "Aki...what even is he?!"

"A god?" Akihiko replied in confusion and Haruhiko sighed, "I know that...but what is Scarlet?! I thought Yumoto was Scarlet. Is Scarlet him or something else?"

"Scarlet is Yumoto, Yumoto is Scarlet." Dadacha explained, "They're the same person, Scarlet is just Yumoto's true form."

"Ah...so if we kill him...Scarlet could still rein?"

"No...if you kill him, Scarlet will be gone."

"Ahem...I'd like to work with you in getting rid of the next God of Love..." A new voice spoke.

Gora ran into Yumoto's room and smiled. En and Atsushi were helping Yumoto sit up and Yumoto grinned as he saw his brother, "An-chan!" He cried and Gora walked over to him. "Are you okay?"

Yumoto nodded, "Y-yeah!"

Gora wrapped his arms around his brother and hugged him, "We were scared for you...you were out for a few days..."

"What...what happened an-chan?"

Gora gasped, "Y-you...don't remember?"

Yumoto shook his head, "N-no..."

"Yumoto...it wasn't anything bad...you...you just were attacked by one of the twins." Gora lied and Yumoto nodded as he yawned, "I'm still tired..."

"You will be." Atsushi whispered and Gora watched as his little brother fell back asleep on Atsushi's shoulder.

Gora smiled, "Epinard, please let me know when he wakes up and is strong enough to walk on his own again."

Atsushi nodded and watched as Gora left.

En watched as Atsushi gently laid Yumoto back down on his bed. He smiled as it looked like Atsushi kissed his forehead like a mother would. As they were leaving his room, En wrapped an arm around Atsushi's shoulder. "You're not his mother, Atsushi...but if you were, you would be the best mother the kid has ever had."

"En-chan..." Atsushi blushed and gasped as En kissed his cheek, "Don't worry."

"Who are you?!" Haruhiko growled and looked at the person, who was wearing a dark blue cloak and had their head covered by the hood. He watched as they put the hood down and the person smiled, "My name is Kinosaki Kou...I'm a sorcerer along with my partner Tazawa Masuya."

Akihiko frowned, "What do you want?"

Kou looked at him, "We want to resurrect a certain thing and we need one more sacrifice..."

Haruhiko smiled, "Really...?"

Kou nodded, "Yes...and this last sacrifice needs to have great power."

Akihiko looked at Haruhiko and Haruhiko began to laugh, "Then Scarlet is the best choice for the sacrifice."

Kou smiled, "But we need someone to distract Maximum Gorar...and his seven guardians."

Haruhiko nodded, "Leave that to us..."

Kou turned to Masuya and smiled, "Lord Hireashi will finally rein and the Gods of Love will be no more."

Yumoto gritted his teeth as he tossed around in his bed and began to whimper in his sleep. Wombat woke up and looked at him, "Yumoto?"

Yumoto's eyes popped open as he sat up and he gasped as a scarlet light filled his room and a figure appeared.

"W-who are you?!" Yumoto gasped and the figure smiled, "I'm you...I'm your true form, Scarlet."

"M-me?"

Scarlet nodded, "Yes, I'm you. I'm here to tell you something."

Yumoto watched as a staff appeared in Scarlet's hand. "Two people are after you. They want you dead to revive an old demon that Maximum Gorar defeated."

Yumoto gasped, "Why?"

"We...will be the final sacrifice needed...they killed most of their clan but...we're the final key to his revival."

Yumoto looked at Scarlet, "H-How can we stop them?"

Scarlet sighed and looked at the staff in his hand. "Awaken...you need to awaken..."

"But you're not as fun as me!" Yumoto pouted and Scarlet laughed, "You have to be serious sometimes...I hate being serious, Yumo-chan. I'd rather be funny than serious."

Yumoto smiled and Scarlet outstretched the staff to Yumoto, "Grab this...this is your awakening..." He smiled and Yumoto nodded as he reached forward to grab the staff.

As he was doing this, the door opened and two men appeared. "Grab it now Yumo-chan!"

"Freeze, God of Love!"

Yumoto looked at the two and screamed, "AN-CHAN!"

"He's gone, Scarlet!"

Yumoto gasped and Wombat began to growl, "I-IBU-CHAN-SENPAI!" Yumoto screamed again and the first one laughed, "Get up, Scarlet." "N-no! N-no!" Yumoto began yelling and the two gasped as the figure of Scarlet appeared in front of him.

"Love Attack!" Scarlet yelled and the two gasped as they were hit. "H-how!?"

Scarlet turned to Yumoto, "Grab this now, please." Yumoto nodded and grabbed the staff.

The two gasped as Scarlet disappeared and Yumoto began to transform.

Wombat gasped as he saw Yumoto had a new outfit all together.

The first growled, "Tazawa-kun, knock him out!"

The one named Tazawa nodded and Yumoto cried out as a ball of energy surrounded him.

"Now, Scarlet...don't worry. We'll make your sacrifice painless."

"W-Wom-san!! HELP ME!" Yumoto screamed and Wombat growled as the ground began to shake.

Yumoto gasped out as a red crystal surrounded him and he began to hit it. "H-hey! L-Let me out!!"

"Sorry, dear Scarlet, we need you."

Then Scarlet let out a cry of pain as he felt an invisible force hit him and made him stop struggling...he felt tired...so very tired.

"Kinosaki-kun...good work." Salty Sol laughed as he appeared beside Yumoto as Yumoto's eyes slid shut. "They'll come back and notice how their sweet prince is gone and they'll never see him again. We can then destroy the kingdom and the world will be ours!"

Wombat watched in horror as they left with him. "Yu-Yumoto-san!!" He screamed and Salty Sol smirked at Wombat, "Tell his precious Battle Lover guardians what you saw...Epinard and Cerulean act as his parents...tell them we took their 'son'." He laughed and teleported away.
