Akame looked at the bug man closely until a wave of power hit her.
"What the--? That power... Why does it feel like it's coming from..." Akame said. "No, it doesn't make any sense."
At Tatsumi's village:
"Looks like your dad is taking a turn for the better, doesn't he?" Mine said.
"Yeah, you're right mom. I can tell!" TJ cheered. "I'll tell everyone the good news!"
With Akame and the Monster:
The man the monster was holding then woke up.
"Hey, you, girl with the evil red eyes... help me!" The man said. "Do something! I'm in trouble here! I'm beggin' you! Look, I'm the richest guy in the grasslands!"
The man then pulled a stack band of money.
"All the money you can ask for! Just get me away from this thing!" The man cried. "What's the hold up?! Rescue me!"
"I don't know if you can even understand a single word I'm saying, but let that human go." Akame said. "How ever measly, his life has value."
The bug man then dropped the man.
"Took you long enough lady. Thanks for putting in a good word for me! Now let's get out of here, yeah?!" The man said.
One of the bug man's fingers then extended like a tail and stabbed the man in the back and began absorbing something from his body.
Akame was stunned at the sight in front of her.
The man's body then began withering away, slowly, until he was gone completely.
"I will absorb you next." The bug man said. "Submit... Akame."
The bug man then took a fighting stance and began emanating large amounts of power.
"What the...?! How in the hell?!" Akame said.
The ground began breaking apart; cars were being sent off in the distance and building then shattered until a massive explosion then went off."
At Tatsumi's Village:
Everyone sensed the power and couldn't believe it.
"That energy." Leone said.
"There's no way." Chelsea said.
With Akame and the monster:
"What kind of creature are you? And how do you know to call me Akame?" Akame asked sternly.
"Should I not know my sister?" The monster said.
"What!?" Akame said.
At Tatsumi's Village:
Everyone in Night Raid ran outside of the village huts.
"I've never felt anything like this." Sheele said.
"It's Torosu's power and his dad's power and more!" TJ said.
"That's quite the combination." Najenda said.
With Future TJ:
"That's Akame and Torosu and his father and everyone in Night Raid." Future TJ said. "It feels like all of their energies are radiating from a single point."
With Esdeath and Kurome:
"That's impossible. He can't be back." Esdeath said.
"What the hell is going on?" Kurome said.
At Tatsumi's village:
"Yeah, I feel it too." Lubbock said.
"It can't really be them, right?" Bulat said. " I thought Torosu and his dad were long gone thanks to future boy."
"It feels like it's coming from the direction of..." Sheele said.
"From the direction of the Eastern Grasslands!" TJ said.
Then a familiar energy then hit everyone.
"You guys feel that?" Chelsea said.
"Was that Tatsumi's energy?" Najenda said.
TJ then flew up to a window.
"No. He's here you guys. He's still sleeping." TJ said.
With Future TJ:
"There in section one-o five west." Future TJ said as he checked his watch. "Not far from where we found that eggshell and exoskeleton. They've got to be related."
With Akame and the monster:
"Now tell me what kind of creature you are." Akame said. "Make it quick; talk or else!"
"You don't need to know." The monster said. "I don't like talking to my food."
"Tell me! I'm not going to ask again." Akame said.
"Oh really?" The monster said.
"I'd usually like to know who I've defeated but for you I'll make an exception." Akame said.
"The horrifying Akame intends to kill me." The monster chuckled. "Not likely."
"Here's something you should know..." Akame said. "I'm more than just Akame."
Akame then began emanating power of her own and as a giant red and black flashing explosion then went off.
"More than Akame, huh?" The monster said. "Okay, I'll play along; what exactly is more about you?"
"Wouldn't you like to know." Akame chuckled.
Meanwhile Leone and Chelsea flew off and caught up with Future TJ
"Sorry to interfere TJ but you are our only nephew." Leone said. "We don't know what we're up against. We couldn't let you do this all by yourself."
"Just now there was a power surge in the eastern grasslands." Future TJ said. "That creature isn't the only thing waiting for us."
"Yeah, you're right. I sense it too." Chelsea said.
"Well, no one said it was going to be easy." Future TJ said.
"Wait a sec! That's Akame!" Leone said.
"But that power. It's off the charts compared to anything else I felt." Future TJ said.
"You bet it is. Those books are really something else." Chelsea said.
"Wait! You mean the RongoRongo Books, right? So, you're saying Murasame regained the poison from the Books?" Future TJ said.
"You got it! And since Akame was crazy strong to begin with." Chelsea said.
"Take it in, guys. That's the power of a true demon!" Leone said.
"Amazing. Could it have really made her that much stronger?" Future TJ said.
With Akame and the Monster:
"Maybe I should thank you for wiping out all the humans here whatever you are." Akame said. "That will make it easier for me to do what I need to do."
"To do what?" The monster said. "Explain yourself demon."
"Now I'm free to give it everything I've got." Akame said.
Akame then raised a hand to the monster and fired an overwhelming energy beam at the monster which sent him flying back and completely destroying the city in the process.
With Future TJ, Leone and Chelsea:
"Holy shit!' Leone said.
"That shockwave just now." Future TJ said.
"Un-fucking real." Chelsea said. "Courtesy of the newly formed Akame."
With the Three Techno-Drones:
The Drones stopped the van and got out feel out the energy they felt.
"I felt a change in the atmospheric pressure." Drone #7 said. "What about you?"
"Yeah." Drone #8 said.
"I wonder what gives. Volcano maybe?" Drone #7 said. "Whatever happened, it happened far away."
"The far east grasslands. On the outskirts." Drone #6 chimed in. "Two powerful organics are engaged in combat."
"You're equipped with a power radar? Why didn't you mention it before?" Drone #7 said.
"Because you never inquired." Drone #6 replied.
"Fair enough." Drone #7 shrugged. "Okay then, how about you put that technology through its paces and tell who's fighting."
"Combatants unknown. Neither appears in my database." Drone #6 said. "However, according to my sensors, one of them have powers roughly equivalent to your own."
"To ours?" Drone #7 said. "Sounds like old Rumi botched the wiring on another one. No one on the planet is as strong we are. Eight and I will defeat them easily. That's crazy talk."
"Back in the van Six." Drone #8 said.
With Akame and the monster:
The monster then shot up from some rubble and into the air.
A crystal then began materializing formed on his forehead.
The monster then shot a piercing dark red beam from the crystal. Leaving Akame stunned for a minute.
Akame then deflected the beam.
"That was my..." Akame said.
The monster then charged and Akame but she evaded him end was met with a kick to the back. The monster tried jumping away only for Akame to catch up and kick him into the air.
Akame followed and began trading blows with the monster. Until she got the upper hand and punched him to the ground.
Akame tried to meet the monster, but he stopped himself and flew back into the air.
Akame then all of a sudden appeared behind then monster and kicked him to the ground, sending him crashing into a building.
The monster then came up from the rubble.
"Is that the best you got? My senses told me you were a bigger deal than this." Akame said. "You holding back or something?"
"You are very formidable, indeed." The monster said. "Never mind how easily I'd crush you once my form is completed."
"Completed how?" Akame said.
The monster then smiled.
"Wait! So, is that why you wiped out all the people in the grasslands?" Akame said.
"Yes. I absorb their bioenergy for my own." The monster said.
"Tell me monster! Whose idea was it to send you back to our time in the first place?" Akame said. "Another one of your despicable kind perhaps?"
"I'm the one who sent me back." The monster said. "That puny time machine was too small for this body. So, I was forced to revert back to my egg form in order to travel. I'm surprised you were able to deduce how I got here so easily. That said, I'm sure you know about this."
The monster then took a scarily identical stance that Tatsumi would take to fire his Possession Wave technique, which Akame recognized immediately; it shocked her to the core.
"That stance! It can't be..." Akame thought.
With Future TJ, Leone and Chelsea:
"Is that?" Chelsea said.
"No... No way." Future TJ said.
"What? That can't be! It doesn't make any goddamn sense!" Leone said.
Esdeath gritted at the power she was sensing.
At Tatsumi's village:
"Dad's energy." TJ said.
With Akame and the monster:
"Impossible." Akame said.
The monster then chuckled.
"This isn't happening..." Akame said.
"POSSESSION WAVE!!!" The monster then fired the attack at Akame.
"It's real!" Akame said as the attack was about to hit her.
Akame dodged it at the last second as the blast caused an explosion.
The smoke clouds then surronded her as she began scanning for the monster.
Akame was then blindsided by the monster as he wrapped is lanky limbs around Akame, pinning her to herself.
"And now the feast." The monster said.
The monster's finger then extended in front of Akame and then shot at her, Akame managed to dodge being hit in the face or neck and instead she sacrificed her arm as it was pierced by the monster's finger.
Akame let out a painful scream.
"Your arm; your vitals; it's all the same to me." The monster said. "I can extract the bioenergy from any point in your body."
Akame screamed again as the monster started absorbing from her.
The pain got worse for Akame until she threw her head back into the monster's face causing him to release her and Akame flew to the ground.
Blood began gushing endlessly out of Akame's wound.
With the Techno-Drones:
Drone #6's power radar then went off.
"Well, Six, share with the class." Drone #8 said.
"I'm picking up a change in one of those signatures." Drone #6 said. "The battle seems to be reaching a conclusion."
"The battle? Oh, you mean the one with the person you said was as strong as us?" Drone #8 said.
"Are you still going on about that?" Drone #7 said. "Your sensors are on the malfunctioned side Six, just accept it already. There's nobody on this planet that can keep up with us end of story. Don't make me repeat myself."
With Akame and the monster:
"You may have slipped away for the moment but without the use of your arm, I'd say the tables have turned on you demon." The monster said.
"Yes. They have. There's no way I can fight you now. Not after what you just did to me." Akame said as the blood continued to flow out of her arm.
"So, you know that your fate is sealed. But I can still offer you some consolation." The monster said. "You are full of such power. Such delicious strength. Absorbing your bioenergy will bring me so close to my final form that you'll practically fuel my evolution, isn't that nice?"
"Before you add me to your collection, at least tell me this... What kind of abomination are you?" Akame said. "You have Tatsumi's and everyone else's power, Torosu and everyone in the capital as well... you even have the Possession Wave."
"Oh, very well, I will tell you before I feed." The monster said. "My name is Vain. And I am a Techno-Drone."
"What?! Another one?!" Akame said.
