No Pov:
Right now on the rooftop, Y/n, Fudou and Rin were now up against Kyo-bo and Warabi as Y/n and Fudou are double teaming Kyo-bo
Y/n and Fudou were now currently taking turns on fighting Kyo-bo, exchanging from block and throwing an attack. Kyo-bo throws a jab towards Y/n as he side steps and catches the fist.
He then pulls him over as Fudou delivers a punch to Kyo-bo's face, using the momentum from Y/n's pull, the damage was increased, making Kyo-bo stumble back.
Seeing this, Y/n moves behind Kyo-bo as Fudou notices this. And then in unison, Y/n jumps and sends a roundhouse kick in the air towards Kyo-bo's head, with Fudou throwing a low roudhouse at Kyo-bo's feet at the same time.
Fudou:"All right! That should have go- What the!" He yelled as they both see that Kyo-bo managed to block their attacks.
Kyo-bo then grabs Y/n's leg as he throws Y/n towards Fudou, knocking them back to a fence.
Rin:"Y/n! Fudou!" She yelled in worry.
Fudou:"Were alright. Just focus on Warabi!" He said to her as both him and Y/n dash towards Kyo-bon.
As the fight between Kyo-bo, Y/n and Fudou was happening, Rin and Warabi was ready to fight with Warabi's stance including her to swing her sword around the sky to confused her opponent.
Rin:"Here I come, Warabi!" She yelled at Warabi as she dashes towards her.
Rin then throws a vertical slash towards Warabi, but in one swift moment, Warabi sidesteps and rotates in the air as she lands behind Rin on her one leg as a wound was now visible on Rin's shoulder, which caught both mine and Fudou's attention.
Fudou:"Y/n, did you see what just happened?" He asked me while holding onto one of Kyo-bo's paw.
Y/n then nods in agreement as Fudou let's out a sigh of relief.
Fudou:"Great, cause I sure didn't." He finished as he let's go of Kyo-bo.
Warabi:"Syo, syo, syo~ Princess Oni, you fool." She mocked Rin. "You should know how many years I've been sitted on the Five Swords. Did you seriously think I would be weaker than the beast that I employ?" She asked Rin.
After that demonstration of skill, Rin then reaches for her wound and rips out a large metal needle, which shocked Fudou, but not Y/n
Fudou:"Wha-what the!? Where did thay come from!?" He asked in shock.
Y/n:"...Ninjustu." I answered.
Fudou:"Ninjutsu?" He said in confusion.
Warabi:"Syo, syo, syo~ You are correct, it is indeed Ninjustu." She replied.
Rin:"How underhanded." She said to Warabi's technique.
Warabi:"That wasn't underhanded. Ninjutsu is quite welcomed in the Taisha School.
Rin:'She's dangerously light on her feet. She's like a circus perfo-No, she'sthe damnded ring master.' She described Warabi's acrobatic skills. "I need to go faster." She said to herself as she takes a deep breathe.
And then, using the reaction, she throws a slash towards Warabi with huge force as Warabi blocks it, but Rin manages to reel back her katana again and go for another stricke, but to her surprise, Warabi blocks it by using the handle of her Katana.
Warabi:"Now, this won't do." She said with a smile.
Warabi then pushes Rin's blade by rotating her handle as she jumps up and does a horizontal slash to Rin. Rin redirects the slash to her right, but as soon as Warabi lands, she thrust her katana towards Rin, as the latter dodges, only hitting. Seeing this, Warabi thrust her fingers towards Rin, as it knocks her back a bit anf makes her back off.

Warabi:"Now, this definitely wont do at all." She said with a smile.
Hearing this, Rin breathes in again as she collides swords with Warabi.
Warabi:"Quite the powerful attack, but..." She said a she pushes Rin.
She then kick Rin on the stomach, which caught Rin off-guard as she stutters to remain standing up.
Rin:"That hurt, but...So what!?" She yelled as she dashes back at Warabi.
After that, the two exchange blows with their sword at each other, until a stalemate began.
Rin:"Just because you've been in the Five Sword longer, you shouldn't underestimate me, Kikakujo, Fudou and Y/n." She warned Warabi.
Fudou:"Thanks for caring." He replied to what Rin said.
After that little conversation, Kyo-bo throws a jab towards Fudou as Y/n kicks it away, making Kyo-bo lose he's footing, giving Fudou enough time to put his palm on Kyo-bo's stomach as well as Y/n putting he's palm against Kyo-bo's side.
And so in unison, the two relatives breathe in as they tensed up their muscles and 2 magic bullets collided with Kyo-bo, one to his stomach and one to his side, which clearl affected him as he stumbles but was still able to fight.
Seeing this, the two relatives were caught off-guard by how much this bear has sustained with the damage done to it's inside as Kyo-bo throws another jab, which made Y/n dodge, but stumble on Fudou, making them fall on each other on a corner, making thrm cornered for Kyo-bo.
Y/n:"Tch, damned leg." He cursed as he remembers the injury he sustained on his leg during the sumo match.
Rin and Warabi had now witnessed that Y/n and Fudou were now cornered as Rin get's worried with Warabi smiling.
Warabi:"Despite what you said, it would seem that the two are cornered." She taunted as she changes stances.
Rin:"This time, I can no longer overlook your actions. As a member of the Five Sword, I shall correct you." She announced to Warabi as Warabi smirks.
Warabi:"Take a look at yourself. Can you really say you're not swayed by your own emotions?" She asked Rin as Rin stays quiet. "The Five Swords's purpose is to put down enemy outsiders. What's so different from what I am doing now and what you have done?" She asked Rin as she starts shaking.
Rin:'Focus, she's just trying to distract you! Don't fall into her trap, focus!' She said to herself in her mind.
Warabi:"I cannot see why a women like you, who terrorized the men of this school, one day stopped altogether, and is now turning her sword against her allies. Therefore, I am in the right here!" She finished.
Y/n:"Rin-san!" Y/n yelled catching both Rin's and Warabi's attention. "Don't overthink! Focus only on what's infront of you!" He suggested to Rin.
Warabi:"Oh, is that all you have to say?" She asked Y/n as he shakes he's head no.
He then began whispering to Fudou's ear as he tells him to relay it to Kikakujo and Onigawara.
Fudou:"Oi, Onigawara, Kikakujo, you do remember what you said to Y/n a few days ago!?" He asked them.
And so, they remembered that they were the ones who were now responsible for Y/n's health and time of this school. They visibly announced it that they will hold responsibilty for Y/n's well-being. Remembering this, Rin's nerves started to calm down as she stops shaking.
Mary/Rin:"Yeah, that's right!" They both said in unison.
Warabi:"Wha?" She said in confusion from Rin suddenly stopped shaking.

Rin:"You better stay focused, Fudou. Or Y/n won't rely on you anymore." She confidently said to Fudou.
Fudou:"Heh, Like hell I'll let that happen." He said as boh him and Y/n regain their footing.
Rin:"Y/n's right, I just need to focus on what's infront of me, and that's defeating you!" She said to Warabi.
Warabi:"Tch, Kyo-bo, finish both of them off quickly! Kyo-bo!" He ordered her bear.
Despite receiving orders from Warabi, Kyo-bo remained still as if he was afraid of something might happen.
Fudou:"Hoi Kyo-bo, she's talking to you." He taunted the bear.
Despite Fudou taunting Kyo-bo, the bear doesn't move an inch as Fudou and Y/n finally put two and two together, making both of them release a smile.
Fudou:"Oh, so you finally felt the after effects of out Magic Bullets. The damage done by our move builds up from the inside." He explained. "Now that your unable to come at us, maybe we should come over to you." He said to Kyo-bo.
Hearing this, Kyo-bo lets out a roar as he extends and reels his arm in for a punch, but this left him open as Fudou and Y/n took this as an oppurtunity.
Fudou:"There it is, the telegraphed punch!" He said as both him and Y/n extend their arms taking a stance as if they were about to fire a magic bullet.
Seeing this, Kyo-bo flinched as he immediately drops both of his arms to cover his stomach, hoping to block the magic bullet.
(Y/n is next to Fudou)
Fudou:"Y/n, now!" He said to his twin adopted brother.
Y/n:"Mhm!" He said.
And so, using the stance they were already on and taking advantage of Kyo-bo dropping his head, Y/n and Fudou reel up their punches as they punch Kyo-bo on the nose at the same time.
(Stiyl=Fudou, Touma=Y/n)
The punch manages to knock out Kyo-bo and make him fall on his back as he was actually flung from the force of the punches, which shocked Warabi.
Warabi:"Kyo-!" She was cut off with Rin dashing towards her.
Seein this, she immediately retaliates with a vertical downward slash, while Rin was airming for her chest with a horizontal slash. This time, the two blades passed each other as they were about to hit their opponents at the same time.
Warabi, seeing Rin's blade getting closer to her face moves backwards, making her lose a bit of her footing. Seeing this, Rin extends one of her foot forwards while leaning towards the right to dodge Warabi's Katana. And then now withen range, Rin swiftly send a horizontal slash towards Warabi as she was cut and knocked down to the ground and landed on Kyo-bo's stomach.
After Warabi falls to the ground, Rin lets out a deep breathe and starts breathing heavily.
Rin:"This is a Kashima hidden technique, One blade!" She said the name of her technique.
After that, Y/n and the others were now victorious as Y/n struggles to stand up thanks to his leg injury detiriorating, making Fudou catch him on the shoulder.
Fudou:"Woah, easy lil bro, don't over exert yourself." He said to Y/n in a worried tone.
Rin:"Y/n! Are you okay!?" She asked Y/n in worry.
Y/n then whispers something to Fudou as he asked him to relay it to Rin.
Fudou:"He says he's fine, just a sprained ankle he said." He relayed to Rin.
Rin:"*Sigh* I'm glad that's all." She said relieved.
After that, they hear footsteps coming from the inside as they see Kikakujo come in with 2 of the 3 musketeers and Saruwatari in tow.
Mary:"Bonjour à tous!" She said while waving to everyone.
Y/n: Y/n said as he let out his notepad and wrote it.
Mary:"Bien sûr, Y/n. I am part of the Five Swords after all." She said proudly as she puts down the 3 girls she was dragging.
Then, 2 loud footsteps can be heard again, as NoNo and Baragasaki enter.
Rin:"NoNo, U. Baragasaki."
Rin&Mary:"Good work you two." They said to their underclassmen.
NoNo&Choka:"Onee-sama!" They yelled happily as they went over to their respected seniors.
Seeing this, Y/n and Fudou couldn't help but let out a smile of comfort and happines as they see the two having fun with their juniors, but Fudou remembers a little agreement he had with Warabi.
Fudou:"Onigawara! Kikakujo!" He called them as it grabs their attention. "Me and Y/n would like to thank you for the help. We really appreciate it, right Y/n?" He asked Y/n.
Y/n:"H-hai..thank you." He said in a low voice as his adreneline from earlier was now gone, reverting him back to his shy self.
Seeing this, Rin and Mary couldn't help but blush out of his cuteness as they began to get flustered.
Rin:"U-umm..n-no! W-we should be thanking you."
Mary:"Ye-yeah, what Ri-"
Fudou:"Well, forget about that." He said cutting them off. "Anyway, since Y/n can't stand up properly, you two are gonna help me put this on Warabi." He said as he shows them a mawashi.
Rin&Mary:"What!?" They all yelled in unison.
Fudou:"I may break some of my bones if I do it alone, but with the three of us, we should be able to do it." He said to them.
The two girls were now silent as Y/n writes on his paper.
Y/n: He askes Fudou.
Fudou:"Hell yeah I was serious." He answered.
Y/n: He said as Fudou does what he was requested.
Fudou:"There, comfortable?" He asked Y/n as he nods. "Great! Now, be back until I tie up Warabi's Mawashi!" He said as he was about to walk off but was stopped with Y/n pulling on his uniform. "Hmm? What is it?" He asked Y/n.
Y/n: He wished Fudou as Fudou got confused.
Fudou:"Luck, what do you mean by tha-" He was cut off as he dodges a blade from Rin.
Seeing this, Fudou immediately started running away from Rin and Mary as they chase him around. While this was happening, Warabi had now regained consiousness as she notices Y/n was sitting near her.
Warabi:"...It's you." She said to Y/n.
Y/n: He asked Warabi.
Warabi:"Ye-yes, thank you for asking." She answered.
Y/n: He responded.
Warabi:"...Say, aren't you gonna do something?" She asked Y/n as he tilts his head in confusion. "I hanged your friend, I made you play in the Warabimpics and even hurt you, don't you want to atleast break me?" She asked Y/n.
Y/n: He answered which shocked Warabi.
Warabi:"I-I see..." She said. "...Out of all the men I've met, you are by far the most tolerable." She said to Y/n.
Y/n: He replied.
Warabi:'*Sigh* I just made a worst first impression on the first man to be remotely tolerable.' She said in her head. "This won't do. This won't do at all." She said to herself.
And so, with Masuko free and Warabi and her lackeys beat, Y/n and the others were now the winner as they stay on the roof with Y/n resting and Fudou being chased by both Rin and Mary.

The Kodoku Game
In Japanese folklore, there once existed an ancient technique among alchemists for harvesting the strongest poison known to man. A poison so vicious, so horrendous, that a single drop could incapacitate an entire nation of humans, several times over. A poison so intense that a single drop could turn the tides of a war on its head. As potent as it appeared however, this poison could be harvested from the blood of a single insect alone- an insect the alchemist’s called the ‘Kodoku’. As lucrative as was attaining this poison however, the problem lied in identifying this insect- its appearance, shape and size changed from region to region and from continent to continent. Sometimes it took the appearance of a ladybug and other times a horned-beetle. In order to determine the identity of this special insect the alchemists came up with an ingenious method. They created an impregnable jar of clay out of the best sandstone they could find and placed hundreds of different insects into the same jar. The jar was made with such great mastery that it allowed no insects to escape and allowed no objects to enter. The laws of nature dictated that the insects would remain together in the jar forever. However, it turned out that as time went on, the insects’ hunger for food and power caused them to turn against each other- one insect ate another until only one remained. This sole insect contained a poison that far surpassed that of all the others and became stronger as it ate more and more insects. The alchemists at this point had succeeded in identifying the Kodoku and could extract it’s poison as long as they continued to feed it regularly. Although this folklore ends here, the actual story does not. One day, as the alchemists cheered in joy of having identified the Kodoku they so eagerly wanted, they forgot to close the lid on the very jar that was considered to be completely impregnable. This small gap was just large enough for the Kodoku inside to crawl out. Famished from not having been fed for weeks, the Kodoku ended up eating the very alchemists that nourished its growth until not even the bones remained. Yet, the Kodoku’s hunger didn’t seem to subside in the slightest. So it traveled to the next village and began eating whatever it could find there. Its poison made it unparalleled in strength and slowly but surely it began to dwindle down the population of the entire city. Yet its hunger only continued to grow. So it traveled to the next city over and ate all it could there. Very soon, the Kodoku couldn’t find any more food to eat. There was no one left to eat and no one left to spectate. So it stood there, by itself pondering what possibly was left to eat that could satiate its hunger. But there was one thing left that Kodoku realized it had never eaten. Itself.
