But then if Hazama is the vessel of Terumi, then where did that Terumi (the one that The Trinity summon) came from?, damn, someone help me out, i'm new in BB, i've just played CS II. Hazama and Terumi isn't the same person. Hazama is a body made for Terumi by Relius, and Hazama has his own mind. During CT, Terumi was only a ghost and couldn't do many things, he would mostly be around Hazama and order Hazama around.

During the end of CT, Noel observed Hazama as the Black Susanoo which in turn made the unification between Hazama and Terumi almost complete. Normally, at this point Hazama would become completely Terumi, however due to some side effect when the Mind Eater was removed from Terumi during the Dark Wars, Terumi couldn't completely fuse with his vessel.

In CP, Rachel made it possible for Trinity to invade Terumi's mind through using Jubei's sekigan. When Trinity was inside of Terumi, she used muchourin to switch place between Hazama and Terumi, i.e. making Terumi being in the front while Hazama being in the back. This is making Terumi panicking since this would mean that Jubei's hihiirokane would be able to kill Terumi. While Hakumen and Jubei made a move to try to kill Terumi, Terumi was able to get away and make the switch back to the way it was. Trinity then would appear in front of Hazama and since after her previous switch she had learned how to do the switch herself so she tries again, however she was interrupted making the switch incomplete.

In the climax of CP, Terumi appears to be physically separate from Hazama, this effect is called Doppelgänger by Hakumen. There though seems like the unification of the minds isn't completely severed though. When the Doppelgänger was made isn't said, the best guess would be when Trinity was interrupted, Terumi says after all the body is her fault.

While Hazama did show some of the effect of the Timekiller, it could be because of the unification of the minds, however, Hazama was able to move and do things after Terumi got his time killed, which is weird if he was killed by Timekiller, he shouldn't have any "time" to do that.
