Evil Ash

Dark Ash (ダークアッシュ) is the final boss in The King of Fighters XIII. Dark Ash is the fusion of Ash Crimson and his ancestor Saiki. His appearance is essentially Ash wearing black clothing. He is voiced by Sōnosuke Nagashiro

Story
When Saiki is defeated, Ash attacks him from behind and absorbs his energy. This backfires as Saiki's influence appears to take over during the process and as a result the two fuse into a single entity.

Dark Ash battles the tournament winners and is defeated. Thwarted, Saiki moves Dark Ash to return to the past through the closing time portal but is held back when Ash assumes control of the body. Ignoring the pleas from his ancestor to allow him passage and warnings of the consequences, Ash decides to erase his own history and calmly waits for the portal to close. The portal closes, which creates a time paradox: as Saiki is now trapped in the present, it is impossible for Ash to have ever been born. Thus, Ash ceases to exist, taking Saiki with him.

Personality
Dark Ash is a cunning and sarcastic man. He likes to do what he wants at will. He has dual identity owing to Saiki and Ash. Saiki represents him as more cruel person while Ash tends to be the softer but still clever and tricky half.
