Gigas Core

Raigan pulled Kiko's hands and hurled her back into the forest. "Blaaam... sreeeek!" Kiko crashed through trees, tearing through half the forest.

"Uuuuuuuuung!"

Kiko got back up, her tentacles lifting her and launching her towards Raigan. "Boom!" "Groooooar!" Raigan roared as Kiko slammed into him. "Thud!" He stood firm and caught Kiko's arms again. They were back to pushing each other.

"Uuuuuuuuung!"

"Groooooar!"

Both roared loudly, shaking the surroundings. The knights, who had now joined the adventurers, treasure hunters, and guards on the fortress walls, watched the spectacular battle they'd never witnessed in their lives, filled with anxiety and fear. Saber kept staring at the two giant monsters clashing in the grassland between the city and the forest. "Sraaaaak!" Raigan's tail swept away all the small hills in the surrounding area, and Kiko's tentacles tore up the ground.

"Thud!"

After repeatedly clashing, Raigan and Kiko pulled back, maintaining their distance. The fins on Raigan's back began to glow, and Kiko's hair started to glow with a yellow light.

"Groooooar! (Don't blame me, Kiko!)"

"Uuuuuuuuung! (Don't blame me either, big brother!)"

"Crasssssssss!" A bright blue laser-like beam shot towards Kiko, and "csssssssssss!" Kiko retaliated by firing a yellow beam from both her eyes. "Blaaaaaaaar!" The collision of the two massive beams created a thunderous sound, and the resulting shockwaves "thud... thud!" destroyed the fortress wall in the distance. "Waaaaaaaaaaah!" The panicked knights, guards, adventurers, and treasure hunters on the fortress wall ran in disarray, some thrown by the waves. They moved to the section of the fortress wall that hadn't collapsed.

"Quickly, quickly!" Saber yelled, directing the others to move.

Saber looked towards the two monsters, who were now clashing in a beam struggle, his face anxious. "Tap... tap!" Suddenly, he heard someone coming up the stairs. He turned to see Rafina ascending.

"Hey, why are you coming up here, Rafina? You're a healer, get back down!" Saber said.

"I-I have to see this," Rafina stammered.

Rafina looked at Raigan and Kiko as they traded energy blasts. Unbeknownst to her, tears streamed down her face. When her tears touched her cheeks, she immediately held her cheeks, confused.

"Wh-what is this?" Rafina asked while looking at her tears in her hands.

"Step back, Rafina!" some adventurers yelled, pulling Rafina back.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuung!"

Everyone immediately turned when they heard Kiko's roar. Apparently, Kiko's energy was losing, and Raigan's energy beam was very close to her face. Suddenly, Rafina broke free from the adventurers' grip and ran to the side of the fortress.

"Stooooooop!" Rafina yelled.

"Shuuuuut!" Raigan and Kiko divert their energy shots to the sky until they run out. Then they both slowly turned to look at Rafina, who was standing on the side of the fortress. Raigan and Kiko then roared loudly.

"Groooooar!"

"Uuuuuuuuung!"

Raigan and Kiko looked at each other, then turned their backs to the city. "Baduuum... baduuum!" "Sreeeeeeeek... sreeeeeeeek!" They both walked back towards the forest without looking back. "Thud... clank!" The adventurers, knights, treasure hunters, and guards, who had been tense, began to fall to the ground, relieved. Saber exhaled, then he turned to see Rafina, who looked like someone praying, her eyes still fixed on the two giant monsters walking away.

"Blaaaaz!" Suddenly, two pillars of red light appeared in the forest, engulfing the two giant monsters. "Clang!" Rafina fell to the ground, and her staff dropped to the floor.

"Hey, are you okay, Rafina?" Saber asked.

"I-I'm fine, Guild Master," Rafina replied.

"Why did you yell to stop them?" Saber asked.

"I-I don't know myself, my mouth moves on its own. Before this, I-I was sleeping at the inn, then I heard a voice... the voice of a man and a little girl... then I was unconsciously on top of the fortress... I-I really don't know anything," Rafina answered.

"Do you remember the incident 10 years ago?" Saber asked.

"O-of course, I could never forget what happened 10 years ago," Rafina said.

"Was what destroyed your kingdom one of those two Gigas just now?" Saber asked.

"I-I don't know. It happened so fast, and all I know is that the monster was huge. I wasn't at the palace then, and I was only 11 years old and busy running away," Rafina said.

"Alright, I understand. I'm sorry for bringing up your old trauma, Princess Reia Abigail Hestalia," Saber said, holding Rafina's shoulder. Rafina lowered her head and remained silent.

Hours later, in the forest, "Ugh," Rai woke up. He immediately sat up, holding his head because it felt very dizzy.

"Ugh... what happened?" he mumbled.

He turned to see Erin sleeping next to him, completely naked. He immediately remembered what happened when he saw Erin.

"That's right, I tried to stop Kiko, then... she attacked me and almost killed me. I transformed back into Raigan beacuse I'm wounded, and after that, I don't remember anything," Rai thought to himself.

He immediately looked around and picked up large leaves to cover Erin's body. Then, "Bwoooooom!" A hologram screen suddenly appeared in front of Erin's still unconscious face. Rai immediately read it:

"Erin... she's really Kiko. I don't know if I should be happy or not; my feelings are a mess right now," Rai thought to himself while reading the screen.

Rai stood up, then picked up more leaves to cover his own naked body. After that, he carried Erin and walked on a path to get out of the forest. As he walked, he looked around. Many parts of the forest were "flattened" because he and Erin had stepped on them. Rai looked at Erin's face, carried princess-style. Erin's face looked calm, like a child in a deep, carefree sleep.

"Just now, she was about to destroy the city and kill me, now she's sleep so peaceful like a baby, but I get it. She must still remember the last fight on Earth. She's also a victim of humans who thought we were all enemies. After she wakes up, will she remember everything like I do?" Rai wondered to himself.

Rai kept walking without stopping. When he came out of the forest, he could see the grassland landscape before the city in front of him had drastically changed. There were many large holes and torn-up ground forming craters in front of him.

"Sorry for the landscaping, but... who was yelling just now and stopped us both? Could it be... Reidan?" Rai wondered to himself.
