The Last Hope

"You have to go through it Kenta. You are the last hope of us all." Shiori said in a serious but sad voice.

"I still don't think I can do it..." said Kenta as he became emotional again.

"You have to make it or the whole world will be lost!" Shiori said as she turned her gaze to Kenta and looked at him seriously.

Kenta was surprised by Shiori's statement and a new wave of motivation washed over him.

"You're right. I can't give up now." Kenta said as he looked at Suzume's grave.

"Suzume would want it that way too." said Shiori in a soft voice.

"Shiori, I have to ask you to stay here in Kyoto," Kenta said seriously.

"What, why?" said Shiori angrily.

"Suzume is dead, Jin has disappeared, Kyouya has also died and I don't want anything to happen to you." Kenta said seriously.

"All right. If it's easier for you, I'll stay here in Kyoto," Shiori said sadly but sympathetically.

"Thank you Shiori. For everything." Kenta said as he stood up.

"You talk like you're never coming back," Shiori said as she stood up as well.

"I just reckon that I might die in the fight against mordred. That's why I wanted to say goodbye to you now," Kenta said sadly.

"You're not going to die! You are strong Kenta! You will defeat Mordred and then come back!" Shiori shouted as she slapped him on the shoulder several times.

"I'll see you when I get rid of Mordred's ass," Kenta said, smiling in response.

Shiori waved goodbye to Kenta before she went home.

"Well, well, now we are alone Hephaestus' successors." said an unknown voice hiding behind a bush.

Kenta shoots a fireball directly in his direction.

"Hey, don't be like that, I'm not hostile to you," said the person standing right behind him.

"How did you do that!" Kenta said as he turned around and got into a fighting stance.

"Got out of the way." said the person.

"Who are you?" asked Kenta.

"Hina. I want to take you to my master," said Hina.

Hina is a young woman who is 21 years old. She has many secrets, but Kenta will find them out sooner or later.

"You met him once too, do you remember when someone else took control of you?" asked Hina.

"Yes, I do. Was in my fight against Seda... you're his student?" Kenta asks.

"Yes. Now come on we have to prepare you for the fight between you and the Hades successor" Hina said as she walked off.

Kenta wastes no time and pursues Hina directly.

"Tell me, do I know you from somewhere?" asked Kenta.

"I wouldn't know where from," replies Hina.

Hina suddenly stops on the road where a huge symbol appears.

"What's that?" Kenta asks in amazement.

"Don't ask and come here," she replies directly.

Kenta goes to her without asking again and stands with her directly on the symbol.

The symbol shines in a very bright blue. Then you can see nothing but light. When the light was gone, Kenta suddenly stood in front of a huge dojo.

"Finally we meet Kenta." said an old man standing in front of him.

"My name is Ralf. Ralf Ralf." said Ralf.

"Nice to meet you too, Ralf," Kenta replies, confused.

"Hmm, apparently I don't need to introduce you to your sister, do I?" says Ralf as he looks at Hina.

"My...sister?" Kenta said in shock.

Now Kenta knows what his mother meant when she mentioned the name Hina.

She meant his sister.
