Bang Shishigami's Heroic Quest

M...Miss Litchi?
Blast! Where did she go?
I'll find you, Miss Litchi!

*Bang runs off in the direction Ragna was pointing*

I cannot believe that worked, but now I have Tao to deal with.

*dashes into the restaraunt*
Why did you give me this money? I mean im greatfull but I thought you were a cold blooded demon

Don't believe everything you read.

As usual, there's nothing interesting here. Gaaaaah, I need to eat something!

...Hm? What is that incredibly foul stench?

Pro invisible text powers.

-Darkened Alley-

Miss Litchi? Miss Litchi!
Could she be a master of stealth as well?
...could the Grim Reaper have been...deceiving me from the start?
Blast! I should have- wait, what's that?


Oho, what luck! An evildoer in need of just retribution!
Halt, foul beast! I've seen your face on the wanted posters!
Prepare to be brought to justice!

Hell. Im starving. Im getting something to eat

What. Not this loser. He's rather disgusting. I don't want to eat him!

Although, he does seem somehow powerful...

...Hhhhh, not worth it. <starts to leave>

Hey! Pay attention when I'm talking to you!

PULVERIZING FIST

*Bang's fist blazes with righteous flames as he lunges at Arakune*

And here I thought Tao would be coming out of the wood work at the mention of free food.

GHHHHH!
Foul man, you shall pay for that!
You are a nuisance.
Go away or rot in hell!

<Arakune launches a ball of sludge towards Bang>

*Bang dodges the sludge, but just barely*

So, you've got some tricks, eh? I knew just by looking that you were a sneaky villain! But you won't escape my judgment!

*He leaps into the air and throws multiple shurikens down at Arakune*

Huh? ARGH!
*Arakune carves a gash into Bang's side, then spins away*

...So that's where you were. Hmm...this could be tougher than I thought. But I'm not done yet!

*Bang enters an exaggerated fighting stance*

Ha! You fear the wrath of Ikaruga, do you?
How clever! In that case, I'll finish you off with the true power of a ninja!

*Bang leaps towards Arakune at top speed*

What!? Why am I unable to see? Did I fall in a hole again?
Actually, given some thought, it would seem as though I was consumed by that wretched beast.
Fortunately, the ninja of Ikaruga know a secret technique which allows them to handle these types of situations!

BARRIER BURST
Aha! As expected, it worked perfectly!
But...I've used up most of my energy! I may be nearly invincible, but if this keeps up, there's no telling what will happen!
...Perhaps I should swallow my pride for the time being.

Taokaka! Carl! There's a foul villain here in need of divine retribution!
...Are either of you nearby?

..........................................Hm.

Well, in that case...


*runs away*
IfIseeyouagainI'llbringyoutojusticebecausenoonecanescapetheirfategoodbye!

*Bang staggers out of the alley and into the Orient Town main street, dripping blood everywhere and alarming several civilians*

Truly, this is a dark day for the forces of justice! Not one, but two villains have escaped my grasp! My apprentices are nowhere to be found, and to top it off, I haven't eaten a thing!

...Actually, I still have some money...I suppose I can get something for myself, as long as I avoid that restaurant from before for the time being.

*he looks at his wound*

Ah, yes. Perhaps I should have this taken care of first. Hopefully there's a hospital in the area.

*After wandering around for a while and alarming more civilians, Bang is getting tired. He stops to catch his breath.*

Blast! I seem to be unfamiliar with this area.
...Although it pains me to ask for directions, I believe that in dark times such as these, even a ninja should be willing to accept some help.

Uh...excuse me! Miss! Do you know if there's a hospital or medicinal supply store in this area?

<sip>

(Hm? What have we here?)



(Oh dear. How do the commoners keep finding there way here, of all places?
I must tell Valkenheyn to up the security.)

<sip>

Uh...excuse me! Miss! Do you know if there's a hospital or medicinal supply store in this area?

Miss? That's hardly any way to address royalty.

Yeah! Have some respect!

Nago, Gii. Silence. This... man... needs help. (He's bleeding all over my rose garden.) Gii, see to it he is escorted to the appropriate facilities.

B-but, Mistress...

Now, Gii.

Y-yes, Mistress...
Hey you! Come on! There's an infirmary over this way.

...

<sip>

...Perhaps I lost more blood than I thought. I appear to be hallucinating some kind of... of floating red thing.

...Is it talking to me? It wants me to follow it...over there? An...infirmary?

...

Could this be a divine vision!?
Ha ha! The gods themselves are guiding me back towards the light of justice!

Lead on, noble messenger! I, Bang Shishigami, humbly accept your guidance!

*He sways for a moment, then rights himself*

...Although...I'd be grateful if the divine path of righteousness isn't especially long.

Uh... R-right. It's just over here...

<A short while later...>

-Alucard Mansion, Medical ward-

Just lie down on one of those beds. I'll have you fixed up by morning!

Oh, and drink this.
