Kokonotsu

The wily kitsune of guardian status.

a character in “Fusion Fantasy Neo”, as played by MrAuthor3DS

Description

Name:
KOKONOTSU -Ninmenjushin-

Have faith in a triumphant return - Half-Minute Hero
Image




Age: 27

Gender: Male

Specie: Yokai (Kitsune)




Physical Description: Appears as a humanoid white fox with nine long tails and a shaggy mane. His left eye is wounded, as seen by the large blue scar over it. He's garbed in a black vest (lined orange), red hakama, three-layered spaulders, a han kote on his right forearm, and a red scarf tied with a round bell.

Personality: He may seem like a smart-aleck most of the time, but he holds a lot of wisdom, too. He actually acts all cheery to mask his grief - a traumatic event from before his time jump has scarred him for life, to which he promised to keep on smiling...for her.

History: Long ago, he was a prince of the house of Hogosha, which reigned over the citadel of Tensho. However, he felt he was better at protecting individuals than a whole city. For that, he became a bodyguard-for-hire - and that's how he came to meet Jun'ai, the princess of the Iwaki nation. Her skill as a miko was unmatched, and that's what saved him from mortal injury by awakening his hidden Yokai side. Through devotion and trust, Kokonotsu continued his work while growing closer with Jun'ai. He even sacrificed his humanity to protect her from a fatal blow. That same attacker later killed Jun'ai (not before her newborn child could be saved), an event that left Ko in shock. In pursuit of this assailant, he ended up getting flung through time, returning to Earth when the seal on a magic mirror was opened. From then on, he was a guide to other soon-to-be-heroes, preparing them for what was about to come at them. During this time, he heard talk that Jun'ai might be alive in this era...

Equipment: He wields a powerful modified Kyuusuto channel. This octagon-shaped channel doubles as an offensive and defensive weapon. Its blade is flanked by eight smaller hook blades, which latch through foes to grapple them. He also wields a bladed kiseru as a quicker sub-weapon, as well as for inhaling floral incense (using foxfire to cut health risks). Both are made from an orichalcum/silver alloy, making their endurance and purifying effects greater.

Abilities: As far as chakra go, Kokonotsu is very adept in those of Fire and Ice elements. However, he also wields chakra of Earth, Time, and Shadow elements. He utilizes them for aggressive approach, defense, and bewilderment. He can also withstand extreme temperatures. In fact, assimilating the essences of cold or heat can let him take on two different forms - the frozen Fallen Heart form and the rocketing Seraph Heart form. Another thing to note - he found that trust with his client (as a bodyguard) will benefit the both of them in many ways.

Other: Like any Yokai, he's vulnerable to injuries from iron weapons - it disrupts a Yokai's chi-based healing. However, a strong enough Yokai, one that escalates to the level of an Angel, can resist iron to a degree. Kokonotsu rarely makes it known that he himself has reached Angel status...


Specific Moves
  • Foxflame: Fire chakra. A homing fireball that pursues even past solid objects.
  • Inferno: Fire chakra. Surrounds self in a large pillar of flames.
  • Sunshower: Fire chakra. Turns fire into beams of light, which rain down upon foes.
  • Flash-Freeze: Ice chakra. Directs a focus, which then bursts into quick-freezing magic.
  • Snowstorm: Ice chakra. Summons a blistering-cold wind, carrying many icy fragments.
  • Icicle Crash: Ice chakra. Sends spears of ice raining down at a precise angle.
  • Desert Mirage: Earth chakra. Casts a wave of strange sand forth that distorts the vision of any struck foes.
  • Crystal Wall: Earth chakra. Fuses sand into a solid crystal, made for blocking off attacks.
  • Counter-Paradox: Time chakra. Quickly evades an attack and leaves behind a swath of temporal bursts.
  • Chrono Cut: Time chakra. Sprints forth at mach speed, leaving behind a rend across.
  • Time Blitz: Time chakra. Warps to another point, leaving behind a burst of temporal energy.
  • Shadow Drill: Shadow chakra. Dives forth with Kyuusuto, wrapping it in bands of shadow.
  • Fox Shadow: Shadow chakra. Creates a living shadow to dog after foes.
  • Dark Buster: Shadow chakra. Barrages foes with a directed beam of darkness.
  • Highway Accident: A favored trick - uses illusory powers to manifest a car, which then zooms at the foe to run him/her over and explode into foxfire. Why a car, though...?
  • Fallen Heart: Absorbs the essence of cold to turn into a frozen faceless golem. Very strong and unflinching, he's well-armored. This icy armor can be whittled away by fire attacks.
  • Seraph Heart: Absorbs extreme heat to become a being of fire, eyes glowing bright and six flaming wings spread out. He can fly around at great speeds and launch all-consuming waves of foxfire. This will expire after a while.

Inspirations
  • Youkai folklore
  • Axel/Lea (Kingdom Hearts)
  • Waka (Okami)
  • Keaton (Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask)
  • Ezio Auditore (Assassin's Creed 2)
  • Knight (Half-Minute Hero)

Trivia
  • Kokonotsu's name is literally Japanese for "nine", the number of tails he has. It's also a term relating to the Chinese magic square, the origin of sudoku.
  • His last name, "Hogosha", is Japanese for "guardian". Since Kokonotsu is at Angel level, this makes him a "guardian angel".
  • His channel's name, "Kyuusuto", literally means "nine strike". True to the name, it has a total of nine edges - eight hooks and one main blade.
  • Foxfire is often attributed to kitsune, so of course Kokonotsu's main chakra element is Fire.
  • His Seraph Heart form is named for the seraphim, angels affiliated with fire.
  • Kokonotsu wears a red scarf. These are customary for statues of Inari foxes. Also, it is affixed with a suzu, a round bell often used by Shinto shrines.
  • The scar over Ko's left eye is blue. All Yokai have differently-colored blood depending on their classification - animal Yokai like him have blue blood.
  • Zenmei sometimes calls him "Ko-sensei". Since "ko" can mean "old", this may be a sly insult. Ekiyu is more respectful of him, though, calling him "Koko-sensei".
  • The reason his eye's sclera is lavender-colored is so it doesn't blend with his white fur.

So begins...

As the life force leaves Garrison's body, he can see the image of the purple blade fading away...

Everyone else who can see into the Chamber watches as an arm of dark energy rises from the lava, followed by another arm, burned down to the bone, the two arms pulling out a blazing Yoshi skeleton. As the skeleton rises out of the lava, the fire on its body fades away and flesh rapidly forms over it, creating a black-scaled Yoshi with long white hair and hellish red eyes, staring outward with the hatred of thousands of lifetimes. A cruel smile crosses the Yoshi's face as he gazes out of his chamber and sees Alex standing there.

"Hello, Alexander," said Morbul. "Did you miss me?"

"Double crap," said Alex.

Morbul's right arm (the one that's flesh and not made of darkness) glows with dark energy as he charges out of the chamber at Alex.

"ALEX!"

Sonic gets up and sprint towards Alex and grabs his arm to save him from Morbul's dark energy. But now Morbul is free from his prison, the best course of action is to GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!!!!

"It's no use, guys! We're too late. Let's get the heck out of here!" Sonic warned his teammates.

"(!!!) Look out!!" Twilight shouted, projecting a barrier around Alex (and anyone near him) to fend off Morbul's impending attack.

As Andy finished the Spark of Life of Zeta, the Halvanr gradually came to full consciousness. "You...but why...?"

"Iunno," Andy said. "From the look of you, you've been under too much hell."

Zeta wasn't exactly sure he deserved - or wanted - a human's pity, so he lightly pushed Andy aside with his right arm and looked away. "Don't give me that kind of talk. Like you'd really concern yourself with some other being's problems..."

Back inside the chamber, Garrison collapses into a heap on the sacrificial altar, unmoving - yet with a look of deranged glee permanently etched on his metal face.

With Garrison dead, meanwhile, Ripsaw suddenly roars in agony soon after he stands up; electricity flowing and sparking violently about his body before he shuts down and falls to the ground once more, the yellow light in his eyes dying out.

Morbul slams his fleshy hand into the ground, making a lair of black ice surround the barrier, trapping Alex and Sonic inside.

"Oh, I'm sorry," said Morbul. "You weren't planning to leave, where you? After coming all this way, running would be SO disappointing."

Morbul's hands continue to glow as dark meteors rain down, mainly focused on Twilight.

Sonic and Alex are trapped in the barrier. No where to run, and no where to hide. Sonic would burrow through the ground and drags Alex in, but the rock is too solid to dig through...

"(!) This way!" Mario said, holding Twilight up as he ran to evade Morbul's meteors. During this, Twilight cast a trigger to make the barrier break the ice away from Alex and Sonic, then send the shards flying at Morbul like missiles.

"Think they notice by now??" Lucas asked Kokonotsu sarcastically, before leaping at a meteor and, with his Barrel Throw technique, swung it around and hurled it toward Morbul like a cannon.

"They better!" the fox said, zipping past meteors and slicing any incoming ones with his Kyuusuto.

"(!) Heads up!" Andy shouted, shielding Zeta from incoming meteors with a Windshield occult. "...'Course I would. Why else did I join Alex's quest?"

The shards of ice impale themselves in Morbul's skin, but fall out quickly as he catches the meteor, hurling it for the barrier and smashing it to bits.

"How pathetic," said Morbul. "I honestly expected better."

Morbul continued his approach to Alex, who tried to back away, but was being held back by Sonic.

"Just like 'comrades,'" said Morbul. "They have a nasty habit of holding you back."

Morbul conjures more Black Frost, freezing Sonic's feet to the ground.

"And you have a nasty habit of trying to destroy him!" Sonic tries to break out of the ice on his feet, but he can't move, "Alex may have friends on his side, but he is not a coward."

"Friends?" asked Morbul. "Really, friends hold you in place while the one man who can kill them approaches?"

Indeed, Sonic has still not let Alex go, and thanks to Sonic being frozen, Alex can't escape.

"Shut up!" said Alex. "Just because you don't have friends doesn't mean you can mock me for having these!"

"Name them," said Morbul.

"... What?" asked Morbul.

"Go on, name them," said Morbul. "All of them. Introduce me to your friends."

"Well, there's Terrus, Duma, Andy, Lucas, Mario, uh... dragon... guy..." said Alex, faltering. "... Princess... Pony... Spiky... holding... person..."

Morbul laughs.

"Some friends they are," said Morbul. "You barely even know them! Now draw your sword. I want you to at least think you have a chance."

Alex is silent.

"Unbelievable!" laughed Morbul. "You don't have your swords? You've somehow LOST the only means of defeating me! And yet here you are! Did you think you could somehow pull through at the last minute and win the day with pluck and charm? Or... did your 'friends' drag you here?"

"... Shut up," said Alex.

"Oh, I'm right on the money, aren't I?" asked Morbul. "You don't want to be here at all. I don't blame you, but your 'friends', oh, they do. They realize how dangerous I am, and they realize that you're the only way they can hope to stop me, so they throw you at me, with no weapons and no hope, and pray for a miracle."

Morbul punches Alex in the face, dislocating his jaw.

"Miracles do not exist," said Morbul. "Not for me. Not for you. There is only the cold hard truth. You are little more than a glorified weapon to these people, and they attempt to use you while you're broken."

Morbul yanks Alex out of Sonic's grip violently, dislocating Alex's arm and throwing him to the ground.

"But broken things only get worse the more you try to pretend they're fixed, don't they?" asked Morbul.

Morbul's words made a thought run through Lucas's mind. (Maybe he's right...Maybe...all we've been thinking of is getting Alex to stop Morbul...nothing else. We...were selfish all along...)

"Then we use whatever tools work!"

"(?) Hu - ?"

A large lunar shadow was cast around Morbul (Ecliptic), its power hindering his movement speed. Up above is Kaia atop Camilia, the two touching down on the ground. During this moment, Andy rushed in on his board and used his Hand of Fate to grab Alex and carry him away from Morbul. He then set Alex down, standing in Morbul's way of him. This act seemed to reach Zeta, even.

"I at least don't see him as such," Camilia said. "I see him as a fellow soldier - and I'm not one to allow my compatriots to die!"

Kokonotsu used his Foxflame control to thaw out Sonic's feet and free the hedgehog. "Here's what Alex does have - those willing to protect him."

"And we'll see to it," Damian said, spreading a wing out in Alex's defense, "that you don't get to defeat him."

These words inspired Lucas anew, as he stepped forth, clenching his fists. "We may not be the exact cure to your disease...but in Alex's stead, we'll do what we can to whittle you down!"

Xi stood up as well, ready to assist if needed. As she did...some voice reached to her, echoing something...

(The blades approach)

"...?"

Sonic uses his strength to break out of the ice, then kneels down in exhaustion. But he is not giving up, and he is about to add something to the speech.

"We fight together as friends, and friends stick together as always," Sonic added, "And friends protect each other from the face of evil like you."

"Fine," said Morbul, stepping out of the shadow "Come on and prove what you can do."

Duma dashes at Morbul, who grabs her by the neck and hurls her into the air, where she is struck by lightning bolts.

"Next," said Morbul.

"{cracks neck} Don't mind if I do~" Andy rushed in on his board, riding circles around Morbul and swallowing him into a Cyclone. At that same time, Damian projected a Sub-Zero oneirite into the Cyclone, trapping Morbul in a freezing tornado.

Sonic's kinetic energy helps counteract the freezing tornado, which Morbul breaks out of, surrounded by fire. Morbul grabs Sonic and hurls the flaming hedgehog directly at Andy as Duma crashes to the ground, twitching.

"This is the best you can do?" asked Morbul. "You people can barely keep from tripping over yourselves! How do you expect to beat me?"

"(!) Not agai - !" Andy's fretting was interrupted by Kaia, who caught Sonic in midair with her psychokinesis.

At that time, Xi joined up with Lucas, both launching Kinetic Shots and Triple Threats toward and around to all sides of Morbul.

Terrus opens fire on Morbul with his rail gun arm, but he doesn't seem all that phased.

"It doesn't matter how big the gun," said Morbul. "It's still not enough."

Morbul conjures a gigantic orb of dark energy that looks (and sounds) much like a demonic screaming head and launches it at the heroes. Alex recognizes the sound and dives out of the way, but Terrus is not so lucky and is floored.

"Heads up!!" Damian takes flight, grabbing Lucas and Xi with each forepaw as he sideflaps out of the Doom's Head's way. Twilight does the same with Mario still holding on, using her magic to levitate Duma away. Kokonotsu uses his foxfire-warp to get himself, Kaia, and Zeta out of the way, too. Andy evades by drawing a Circuit Grind past the orb and riding his skateboard on the line.

Sonic looks bruised after that counterattack Morbul pulled off. He rubbed his head and groaned in pain. "He sure packs a serious punch, huh...?" Sonic commented on Morbul.
