Bleurgh
Miroku spats out another mouthful of blood.
Drip drip
Blood drips out from a corner of her eyes as the kaleidoscopic pattern in her eyes spins rapidly and the purple hue dims down.
"The aftereffects of spiritual reincarnation are still as severe. I won't be able to use it for another half a year."
Miroku's vision turns blurry as she falls to the ground.
Whoosh whoosh
The squad of temple guards arrives inside the residence.
"High Priestess-sama"
Hanzo notices the puddle of blood on the floor. He quickly flickers beside Miroku to support her.
"Are you alright, Miko-sama?"
He asks with a voice full of concern.
"I am alright." Miroku wipes the blood from the corner of her eyes.
"Quick! Take me in the southeast direction near the location of the ancient temple. I have to reach there as soon as possible." Miroku issues a command.
"But but Miko-sama that is in the opposite direction of the safe house." Hanzo hesitates a bit.
"Do as I say that's our only way of survival."
She reprimands Hanzo.
"The only way to save the world"
Miroku mutters to herself as she recalls the events prior to her spiritual reincarnation.
*********
Boom boom
Yomi makes a hand seal and releases a purple exploding chakra worm towards the houses of the village.
"Beware of the prowess of Miko's eyes. She might escape."
Mry's deep voice echoes in Yomi's ears.
"I won't give her a chance."
Yomi speeds up towards the shrine.
"Intruder!"
The shrine guards intercept him but are quickly dispatched by two exploding worms.
Whoosh whoosh
A squad of guards surrounds Yomi and bombards him with paper bombs, kunais, shurikens, long-range jutsus, and all sorts of weapons.
The impact of jutsus kicks up a cloud of dust and smoke, blinding everyone's vision.
Swish swish
A shrill sound pierces through the ears as the guards drop one by one.
Whoosh
Yomi waves his hand and clears the dust cloud as the last guard falls to his death.
"What's going on?"
The commotion wakes up Miroku.
Ding
The wall on the clock chimes to the witching hour. She rings a small bell to summon a guard.
"Reporting to my lady Miko-sama, an intruder has trespassed into our temple's territory."
"Intruder?"
The kaleidoscopic pattern in Miroku's eyes flashes as she is stuck with an awful premonition.
Whoosh
She quickly dashes towards the shrine of the temple and searches around. After fumbling around for a minute, she fishes out a hexagonal sealing talisman.
"The seal is undone the the demon is out."
Helplessness appears in Miroku's eyes.
"That day has finally come!"
BOOM
With an explosion, the roof and the wall of the shrine are blown away. Miroku is sent flying away by the explosion.
BAM
She hits the opposite wall and bleeds from a concussion. Her consciousness blurs and drowsiness overwhelms her.
"FOUND YOU, MIKO!!!"
An eerie voice douses her wake.
"It's the intruder. Surround and subdue him."
The guards quickly rush towards Yomi.
"Pesky flies."
Yomi waves his hand and detonates a few explosive charka worms to wipe the guards. He clutches the forehead of a guard and squashes it like a watermelon. The blood and grey matter splashes on the floor. Under the influence of Mry, Yomi reveals a creepy smile as his neck makes a 180 turn like a mechanical doll.
Aaaah
Miroku screams in fear. The pupil of her Reigan revolves anti-clockwise. The kanji on the hexagonal seal lights up with a purple hue.
"Those eyes it's those damn eyes!"
Rage takes over Mry.
"I will rip them out."
He launches a barrage of purple chakra tentacles toward Miroku.
Ding
The hexagonal seal floats in mid-air and creates a dark green barrier. The seal releases a bright flash of light and envelops Yomi in a containment barrier.
Violet lightning flickers through the barrier and evaporates the approaching tentacles.
Tch
Yomi clicks his tongue.
"Annoying"
He continues to attack the barrier in an attempt to destroy it.
Haah
Miroku takes a deep breath and rushes into the hall.
"I have to take Shion and get as far from here as possible."
She quickly enters one of the rooms and searches around.
"Shion Shion! SHION!!"
Sob sob
Feint noises of sobbing and breathing leak out from one of the keyboards.
Miroku hurriedly opens the cupboard.
"Ma mama"
Shion lunges into Miroku's embrace.
"I I am scared, mama. Shion is scared!"
She tightly clutches Miroku's clothes to hide in her embrace.
"Everything will be alright! Mama is here."
Miroku gently pats Shion's head and rushes out of the backdoor.
'I have to seek help from Konoha.'
Izuna's figure appears in her mind.
'Only he can fight and seal this monster.'
Miroku runs downhill with Shion in her embrace.
BOOM
A figure drops in front of her from the sky, destroying nearby trees and pavement.
"That barrier alone isn't enough to stop me. Now die!"
Whoosh
The kaleidoscopic pattern in Miroku's eyes revolves rapidly as multiple chakra tentacles puncture through her and Shion's bodies. Miroku's consciousness slowly fades away.
"Miroku-san!"
An urgent cry rings in her ears as the blurry image of a young man appears in her dying vision. A faint ripple escapes from her body, crossing time and space.
----
Huff Huff
Miroku suddenly wakes up from her sleep and stares at the clock.
'He will be here in fifteen minutes. I have to hurry up.'
*********
Fwoosh
An invisible ripple spreads through the entire world.
"What was that?"
Izuna pauses in his tracks as he feels a slight disturbance in space-time.
"What what just happened? Why do I feel like something is not right?"
He continues to fly toward the Land of Demons while recalling the previous feeling.
'I think I have already felt something like that before.'
Izuna filters through the recollection of his memories.
"Hah got it! It's the same feeling I had when Boruto and future Sasuke arrived in my timeline. It is the divergence of the timeline."
Izuna's expression turns serious as he recalls Miroku's words from their last meeting.
'If I recall correctly, her eyes grant her an ability to reincarnate in past with her future memories. Looks like something did happen to her. I have to hurry up."
Izuna stretches his hand and molds the truth-seeking ball into a pair of aerodynamic wing gliders.
Meanwhile, in the Land of Demons,
Yomi who is steadily approaching the temple halts in his footsteps.
"This feeling!"
Mry also senses the sudden ripple in the timeline.
"It's her. It's the visual prowess of that Miko. Hurry up and stop her." Mry warns Yomi who makes quick work of the remaining guards.
Inside the temple,
Miroku tightly clutches the hexagonal sealing talisman as the guards escort her toward the ancient temple.
"There is a powerful sealing formation on top of Mry's body. It has a restricting effect on Mry and is the only way to get rid of him."
The group hastily approaches the ancient temple. Miroku places the hexagonal sealing talisman in a keyhole.
She makes a one-handed ram seal and points it in three different directions while chanting.
"Hatsu! Jin! Kai!"
The tightly shut door of the ancient temple opens and Miroku enters the temple.
"Jin, Mori, Hanzo keep guard at the door. If the demon appears in front of you. Don't fight it, just escape and preserve your life."
"But Miko-sama that's our" Hanzo refutes her words.
"It's fine. All of you did your duty well. Now it's my turn to fulfill my duty."
BANG
The giant stone door slams shut locking her inside the temple.
Whoosh whoosh
Inside the temple, a wave of torches lights up with blue fire. Miroku picks up the hexagonal sealing talisman and continues to move deeper into the temple.
She descends into the heart of the sealing array and arrives in front of an enormous gate the size of a tailed beast.
"Beyond this gate lies the sealed body of Mry. Centuries ago, my predecessor sealed this demon in hopes of eradicating it in the future. This demon won't die unless its soul and body are reunited together. However, reuniting them will also recover its previous strength."
Miroku stares at the ominous violet chakra oozing out of the seal as it slowly seeps into the sealing formation.
"For centuries, this demon never paused in his attempt to break this seal. Today, I will grant it its wish."
Miroku recalls a certain prophecy passed down in her family.
"The day the sky is rend apart and the earth is split open, a man with divine eyes will appear and lay waste to the armies of the foul omen."
Miroku stretches out her hands in front of her chest and performs a ritual.
"Min, Shin, Gan, Reppyou, Shouzen, Mika, Dan, Raku, Shou!"
Rumble
The gigantic door slides open revealing a worn-torn lava-filled ground.
Swoosh swoosh
Four purple orbs float out from the nearby walls and circle around Miroku. Miroku slowly levitates in the air and floats towards the center of the lava field.
"It's time to undo the seal."
