Madder snickered as he saw Azlan form the Kusanagi in his hands again. The stupid hybrid thought a silly sword could stop his need to cut them. He wanted to taste their blood. He wanted them to scream. Azlan's eyes flicked back to the two Bellossom behind him. Ah, he was trying to protect them, it seemed. His weakness. Good to know. As Azlan stood up, he raised his sword in a defensive position. Madder immediately reacted, his knife aimed in an attack. Azlan blocked Madder's first few hits, predicting each move Madder was making. This was frustrating to Madder. He could not let this hybrid out class him. Madder ducked under his next strike and tossed out another blade. Azlan, however, noticed, and froze the blade with his psychic abilities. He paused, as if sensing something about Madder.

Azlan pushed Madder back and nodded to himself. This man was not as he seemed. There were two people inside one body, it felt like. Each time their blades touched, Azlan could sense a second presence within Madder. Was it possible to bring this man to the surface? Azlan could try, but it would not be easy. He would have to get a clear shot at Madder's forehead. Thankfully, Madder seemed very intent on performing close combat.

Azlan lept back as Madder ran forward. He parried Madder's attacks one after the other, watching for a pattern. It took several turns, but Azlan eventually caught a slight repetition within Madder's movements. With that in mind, Azlan struck. He knocked away Madder's knife, causing a second of distraction for Madder. Azlan shot forward, pressing his thumb to Madder's forehead. Madder froze, Azlan's psychic energy forcing him still. Azlan's eyes began to glow as he reached into Madder and grabbed hold of the other aura. Azlan pulled hard, and the presence seemed to awaken. It began to fight against Madder, quickly gaining the upper hand. Azlan released his psychic energy and Madder collapsed on the ground. He breathed hard and pressed a hand to his face. Azlan stood a few steps back, still prepared for another attack.

"Am I back? Am I really back?" The man lifted his head. He looked around and locked eyes with Azlan. Overall, the man looked exactly the same as Madder, except his eyes seemed tamer. "Did I manage to take over from Madder?"

"It seems so," Azlan replied.
