"A gun?!"

Alene looked at the screen, mouth agape.

Sam nodded.

"Among all the Carbonara bosses, only one used a gun as his main weapon. His flame was very weak, so he compensated for it with his weapon. Most likely Don's weapon will contain bullets similar to this."

Sam held up a bullet.

Rachel stared at it.

"Eh? Dying Will Bullet?"

"Look at Don's hand."

Marian stared.

"The flame is being absorbed?"

"That's right. The Dying Will Bullet has a property that can temporarily compress the Dying Will Flame. The Seventh noticed this. Even if flames are weak, they can be accumulated into the bullet, then released in one shot. The resulting power is immeasurable."

Alene froze in shock.

"Wait...but Don's flame is nothing like the Seventh's! Her Flame of Wrath has an immense destructive power. If such a flame was to accumulate, then be released in one shot..."

Sam nodded.

"...It would contain an unbelievable destructive power. If Yiernoshi were to get hit by that one shot, it would be very dangerous, even for her."
-----
Yiernoshi dived towards Don. Holding her lollipop tightly, she used its flames to move forward rapidly.

"Tch, brat. Don't think that you have a patent on moving at high speed!"

Directing the barrels of her guns to the ground, she pulled both triggers. Two twin jets of flame spewed up, propelling her upwards.

Yiernoshi shot up into the air as well.

Don raised her gun, and shot a wave of flame at Yiernoshi, sending her crashing into the school building.

Meiling and Marian stared at the hole in the building, identical expressions of shock on their faces.

"That's the gym! The ones in there..."

"...The Mist Guardians!"

Yiernoshi pulled back, skidding to a halt just in time to avoid hitting Maria, lying on the ground.

Don, perched on the top of the gym, smirked.

"Fuhaha! This is charity!"

She aimed the guns, and shot at...

"The Storm and Lightning poles!"
-----
Indeed, the poles had been destroyed. Seet and Bella caught the Rings that fell from above, and placed them into the wristbands, curing themselves.

Rachel spluttered in indignation.

"They got the Rings!"

Don laughed.

"Fuuhahahaa! Didn't think of this method, did ya, fake?"

Bella smoothed the imaginary wrinkles on her jacket.

"I'll leave that sonic wave brat to writhe in agony and die from the poison."

She adjusted her bandages, before deciding that her skin had healed enough, and yanked them off.

"Shishi~who should I kill next?"

Seet stalked away from the pile of debris.

"Like I'd waste any effort killing that handbag lunatic."

Don and Yiernoshi stood on a roof, glaring at each other.

Yiernoshi bit her lip.

"What are you so anxious about?"Sam murmured.

"Your own Guardians aren't ordinary guys."
-----
Bella crouched by the edge of the building.

"Shishi~the Sun one should be somewhere around here..."

She caught a movement at the corner of her eye, and dodged. Just in time.

Bella slowly got up.

"Hnn. You are..."

Her attacker's cold voice interrupted her.

"You dodged that well."

Bella looked up.

White shirt, black pants, tie. It was Claire.

"What?!"

Everybody's gaze travelled to the Rain pole. It had collapsed, its four stumps-that-used-to-be-supports smoking.

Sam smiled.

"Claire struck it down, then cured herself."

"How? The poison is so strong, even a wild elephant would stop in its tracks..."

Sam continued.

"Also, the true Guardians are not just about their missions. Their relationships also resemble the type of weather they are named after. For example, when it rains, it could worsen into a storm."

Seet paused.

"Hmm...should I kill the Sun one first, or the Cloud one?"

"Hold it right there."

The ground around Seet exploded.

"Eh?"

Seet was blasted into a wall.

Outlined by the smoke, was Christine.

Sam smiled.

"See?"

Marian gasped.

"Claire flipped the Storm Ring over to Christine!"

Claire narrowed her eyes.

"Shall we begin?"

Christine scowled.

"I won't allow you to cause all this extra noise during the Sky battle."
-----
Don glared at the screen.

"Fuu. Annoying bits of trash, overestimating yourselves."

"Oi."

Yiernoshi glared at Don.

"Concentrate on your battle with me."
-----
Seet stared at Christine.

"You! You're the Storm sonic wave brat! Get out of my way or I'll kill you."

Christine smirked.

"Really?"

Two punches and a club on the head later, Seet was out cold.

"Tch. It's so easy to beat poeple off guard."

"What about Jeanine?!" Carmen wailed.

Sam shook her head.

"Don't worry. Speaking in terms of weather, Storm and Lightning are like sisters."

Christine yanked off Seet's Ring, and placed it in Jeanine's wristband. Immediately, Jeanine stopped convulsing, to lie prostrate on the floor.

"There, you're fine now. Off to help the others!"
-----
Claire and Bella stared at each other.

Bella grinned.

"I know you. You're Spade, right?"

"Wrong. It didn't even rhyme."

"Hehe. What a weird person. But somehow, I think I'll enjoy this."

Both charged at the same time.

Bella launched bomb after bomb at Claire, creating a cloud of smoke around them both. When it cleared, Claire was hunched on the floor, covered in blood.

"Shishi~is that all? Well then, bye-bye."

She pulled out one last stick of dynamite, and threw it at Claire.

Claire's hand reached out automatically, and pinched the fuse.

"Hn. Explosives, hmm? Then I guess I'll just have to knock every one down."

Chains appeared, one end attached to the bottom of each tonfa, the other hanging free, with a pointed spearhead.

Bella flinched.

"Uh...uh-oh..."

"Are you ready?"

"Wait! I pass!"

Bella leapt backwards.

"I've gotta go get the other rings, so byeee~"

Claire sighed, looking at Bella's retreating back.

"All that talk for nothing..."
-----
"Gah!"

Yiernoshi was falling backwards.

Rachel stared at the screen.

"That Yiernoshi...is she slowing down?"

"No. It's Don who's speeding up."

Yiernoshi crashed into the roof.

Don smirked.

Aiming at Yiernoshi, she shot a multitude of bullets from both guns.

"Rapid fire?!"

Yiernoshi disappeared into a cloud of smoke.

Sam sighed.

"That Yiernoshi, she avoided it. That kind of luck isn't going to happen again."

Yiernoshi groaned, and hefted her lollipop.

It morphed into a triangle.

"She's going to use that power."

On the rooftop, where Yiernoshi stood, her entire body was engulfed in orange flames, originating from the triangular lollipop.

A single figure, illuminated against the harsh backdrop of orange.
-----
Yay! Finally posted again! :)

As hard as I tried, I couldn't condense the fight into one chapter. Hopefully next chapter will be the last bit of the fight. Thankfully, other people besides Yiernoshi got the chance to star too. For that, I'm happy.

Remember to watch the videos mentioned in the previous chapter! :D
