Eiji's Story Number 1: I run, I jump, I fight,I fly, I fall.. For You.

CHAPTER 1 - S-senji.. I mean Kenji!

... Once upon a time in a time when Japan still had samurais and ronins.. They were two that went through unimaginable tragedies.. after ones love. A small boy.. merely 7 is having his favorite snack.. right infront of the store he got it from. While the small boy was having his snack.. Something shook the ground; The streets started to fill with many people gathering around to see the ruckus. As a young seven year old boy.. he was curious and tried to get a good look. It looked as if it was a parade, but only soldiers stood at the front while marching and in the middle.. of all those men marching was a large carriage that four slaves were holding up. The boy tried.. to get a look at who was inside, but when he got to close.. he bumped into one of the soldiers.. dropping.. his snack. The soldier gets his sword out saying "Who the hell are you!" The boy replies.. ".. My snack."

The whole parade of soldiers and royals stopped. The carrage stopped as well.. and was set on the ground; A young girl slowly emerges out of the carrage just around the age of the boy. She slowly walks up to the young boy.. and picks up the snack. The young boy.. frozen from her beauty as the young girl gives him the snack back. The young boy randomly says " M-My.. name is-s.. S-senji!! Err No.. I mean.. Kenji!!" He then says "W-whats your name..?" The girl just giggles. Then a higher officially grabs the young girl by her arm and says "Princess.. You cannot deal with these dirty.. people! Come at once!" Kenji just stares.. After the whole march was gone the streets became normal again and the people fled back to what they were doing. Senji.. I mean Kenji, hasn't seen her since and only in his dreams does he meet her.

Until nine years after the incident... Kenji was out fishing on a nearby river in the forests for his uncle. Now he's.. 16 an older version of him. While fishing.. he sees someone at a small waterfall.. bathing. "Curious" as he was Kenji.. hid behind bushes, yet still coudn't see. He gets closer and closer.. until he reached the end of the land and falls right in making a huge splash noise!! As he swims back up! The girl spinning around.. her hair shining from the water. She quickly covers her body up.. with her arms. Kenji saying " Uh.. I didn't mean too!!!" Soon after it was nightfall. A camp fire was set up.. the girl having her clothing on, and Kenji cooking the fish that he caught earlier. He again apologized for earlier.. "I'm sorry".. She giggles ".. It's alright." Kenji thinking.. where have I heard that laugh before. They chatted for hours.. staring at the starry night. Kenji says " I haven't gotten your name.. what was it?" she replies.. "Uhm.. it's Aki."They both smile while looking at eachother.. sitting next to the warm camp fire. "It feels like i've seen you before, but i'm not sure.." She replies.. " I woudn't forget those pure eyes of yours." Kenji wonders what she mean't. They spent.. the whole night talking, then Aki slowly rests her head on his shoulder falling asleep. Soon after Kenji also falls asleep.

The sun begins to rise.. Aki wakes up first noticing Kenji asleep. She begans to leave as her personal bodygaurd comes.. A ninja. "Should I kill him?" the ninja asked. Aki replies "No.. He did not harm me in anyway.. and I was about to leave anyways. I just wanted to say goodbye is all." The ninja says "I understand, but we must leave at once.. they are waiting." Kenji wakes up.. seeing both of them. "I don't want to leave.. just yet." Aki says. The ninja keeps telling her we must hurry, while Kenji interrupts.. saying "Hey! Leave her alone.. If she doesn't want to go she doesn't have to." The ninja looks at Kenji saying "This isn't any of your concern boy." Kenji quickly gets up and gets infront of Aki. "I won't let you take her." Kenji says in panic.. The ninja quickly rushes towards kenji pulling out his sword. Aki quickly screams "KAI!!" The ninja stops and punches Kenji instead.. Kenji falling slowly passes out.

A while after Kenji wakes up again.. Knowing he has something to do.. Knowing he fell in love. Walks back to his village, Kenji leaves on a small island near japan. He walks into his uncles tofu shop saying "I fell in love." His uncle is confused.. and says "I'm.. happy for you?" Kenji says.. "I believe it's the princess.. I'm not sure.. That's why I have to go! I want.. to find out." His uncle's smile fall.. saying "No.. That's to dangerous." Not long after still standing in the same spot arguing.. about the same subject. "Why won't you let me go?!" Kenji angrily says. " Because.. I am not going to lose you like I did your father.." His uncle replied. Kenji rushes out the store and goes back to that river.. "Damn it..!! I'm going to leave.. wether he likes it or not." Sitting near the waterfall where he met Aki. He spent several hours just thinking.. about her.. and what his uncle mean't by losing his father. Meanwhile.. smoke comes from the village.. Kenji wandering what it was.. Rushes back to the village.

Chaos.. in the village, people were being stabbed in killed by ronins! Fires has spread through out the village. Kenji in shock seeing.. everything going on from a distance tries to charge in helping when suddenly someone grabs him from behind.. holding him back from trying to save them.. Kenji notices his uncle trying to fight back with a small knife.. He was quite skilled be able to fight back. Kenji so dearly wanted to help his uncle. While his uncle was fighting off the ronins, an arrow came flying hitting his uncle in the ankle.. He fell to his knees, one of the ronin took his knife and sliced across both his eyes.. rendering him blind. Kenji.. wanting to scream was held back from the unknown man.

The ronins fled.. leaving him to be tortured in pain. The unknown man finally let his grip go.. and Kenji without question runs to his uncle.. quickly falling on his knees putting his uncle on his lap. Tears came down Kenji's cheeks.. " W-what.. How.. U-uncle.. I'm sorry.." His uncle replies slowly while bleeding from his eyes.. ".. Kenji.. your father is still alive.. aswell as your mother.." Kenji was only focused on trying to keep his uncle alive for every last second he could. " Kenji.. Emrace your dreams.. go after her...." Slowly his uncle's grip was lost. Kenji's first lost... his uncle. Kenji turns to the man that held him back.. "Why! .. Why didn't you let me save them.. the people.. my uncle!!" The man replied.. slowly " I'm sorry.. But you would have died.. if I let you.." A silence filled the village.. as the fires were gone.. and the people were also gone. Kenji buried everyone single one of the villagers.. Kenji says " Who are you..?" The man replied ".. I'm Eiji just a wanderer.." Kenji then says.. " I'm leaving.. this village.. the memories.. everything." Eiji says.."I see.. then come with me.." he extends his hand. Kenji grabs it.. While on the boat to japan.. Kenji explains why he wants to leave.. Eiji says " .. Sounds like an adventure.. count me in..!" And so.. Kenji met his first companion on this journey to meet Aki once more.

To be continued in Chapter 2-My name is.. Fate.

I just got done fixing the paragraph problem. Plus, the only thing based on these characters are the names of them not emotions or personality. That is the only relation to DNO and these characters.. which is the names.

Thats pretty good, I read through it quicker than I thought I would.

Very nice Eiji!

CHAPTER 2 - My name is.. Fate

... Once upon a time in a time when Japan still had samurais and ronins.. They were two that went through unimaginable tragedies.. after ones love. The day is a nice warm day, Aki standing in the middle of the royal garden of Kyoto.. the cherry blossoms bloomed a bright.. color. It was spring time, as Aki wandered around the garden... she was thinking about how Kenji was. The night they shared near that campfire. While Aki enjoys the warm day.. A man comes walking slowly.. This man looked not of japanese; A foreigner with flowing blonde hair.. and blue eyes that glow.. as if the moon is reflecting off the ocean. The man softly says.. " I'm.. back Aki."

Aki asking politely "May I ask who you are?" The man replies "Aki.. it's me do you not remeber?... Our promise..?" **Goes into flashback ** A older womans voice "Come now.. greet the young princess, be polite.." The boy doesn't reply.. looking shy and sickily. Aki at the time was six, she greets herself ".. I'm Aki.. You don't have to be.. shy." The boy replies.."I'm not shy!! I just.. I just....." The older woman interrupts "Now.. Now.. Tell her your name." The boy says.. "I-I.. don't want to!" The older woman says.. " I'm sorry.. He's a bit shy around people, why don't you guys go play in the garden? I'm sure it'll be fun." The boy says.. "But mom.." he tries to whisper in her moms ear.. "She's a girl.." Aki quickly and gently grabs the boy's hands and runs off.

Aki kneeling down.. next to the small flowers, says "You're pretty quiet aren't you..?" The boy doesn't reply..as she continues to talk "But... that's ok.. Not many talk to me anyways since i'm the princess.. Like i'm ugly or something." The boy then speaks.."Y-your not.. ugly." Aki giggles.."Oh really..? Then what am I?" The boy then says.. "Uhm.. L-like.. the snow!" Aki replies.. "The snow?.." The boy speaks
again.."Yeah.. The snow.. it's so pretty.." Aki then says "I'm.. pretty like the snow..?" The two of them chatted while sitting in the garden.. under the cherry blossoms. They then were interrupted by older kids.. They came to bully Aki. "Hey!.. Look it's.. The princess no one talks to.. Ahaha" The bullies gangs up on her, circling her, and calling her names.

The boy then interrupts them saying.. "Leave her alone!" One of the bullies.. saying "Hey he looks weird.. what color is his hair?... Oh well he also looks scrawny.." Another bully says "Lets get them both!!" All the bullies pick up sticks and start hitting Aki, until the boy jumps over her.. and takes all the hitting and beating. An adult comes by.. "Hey! What are you kids doing!!" The bullies fled as the adult runs after them.. The boy looking bruised.. gets up. Aki eyes start getting watery.. "Why did you.. block me from getting hit..!! Look at you..!" The boy replies.. "It's a job as a man to protect a woman!" Holding his fist up. Aki then says "You idiot.." Her cheeks overflowing with a river of tears. The boy quickly says.."W-what why are you crying..?!" Aki the says..."Cause look.. you're scrawny.. Even I could of took those hits better than you!" The boy replies.."Huh..?.. I may look weak, but I have a strong spirit!" The boy is fired up.. making Aki giggle.

".. It's a knights job to protect the princess." The young boy said. "Your a knight..?" Aki questioned his statement. "No.. Not yet, But I will be.." The boy replied.. "Aki.. No princess.." He corrected himself and then gets on his knees saying.."Make me your knight.." Aki then puts one of her hands on his left shoulder.. Asking "What's a knight...?" The young boy comically falls over.. saying " Eh..?" So then the boy explains and tells stories of knights and dragons of such.. As Aki sits listening.. amazed of the stories. "A knight can be chosen.. by a princess" The boy says.."In the future.. I want to become your knight.. Aki." Aki giggles.. and says "It sounds like fun..!! But.. what is your name.. Knight?" The boy replies.. "My name is.. Fate, and I promise.. I'll become your knight in the near future.." They then pinky promised..

**Goes back to present** "It's me Fate.."He introduced himself "I came to see you.. Aki." Aki looking surprised.. as Fate comes rushing.. wraps his arms around Aki's body.. Fate softly says.. "I came to fulfill.. my promise." Aki not having any words.. to say hugs him back. "Once more we are under the spring cherry blossoms.. Princess." Aki then says "Fate.. Are you really going to become my knight..?" Fate replies.. "I only need your word.. to become a knight." Only the wind carrying the petals of the cherry blossoms could be heard through the garden..

Another man comes into the garden.. "Fate the king and emperor are about to greet, we must go." Fate then says.. "Damion I shall be there.." He then turns his attention back to Aki.."You should be there to your father awaits."So the three of them walk off to the royal court where a celebration is going on.. The greetings of Japanese and Europeans take place. Meanwhile.. Aki announced ".. Fate shall now become my shield, my sword, my gaurdian, and.. finally my knight." Fate raises his sword in midair as the crowd cheers! Music starts playing.. everyone cheerfully dancing at the part.. Damion and another woman.. who went by the name Roxie was also dancing together.

After the big party and celebration.. Everyone went off to bed.. Except for Fate and Aki.. as they were sitting near a water fountain. "Finally.. I can see you again.. sitting right beside me." Fate said. "You've been waiting.. to see me again..?" Aki asked.. as Fate replied "Only.. everyday and night.. after I left nine years ago." Aki quickly turns red.. saying "I didn't know.." Fate softly says.. "I've been training hard.. and gotten up the ranks.. to become a knight that suits.. your caliber." Aki then says.. "It was so shocking..se--" She was quickly interrupted.. as Fate laid his soft lips on her tender lips. A sweet and silent melody was heard.. From a distance across from the water fountain.. another couple was seen it was Damion and Roxie.. spying on Fate and Aki.. Roxie blushing.. as Damion says.. "What you want one too..?" Roxie then says.. "N-no.." Damion replies.. "To late..." As he kissed her on her forehead.. After a while.. "I must.. go there is business I have to attend to.. I'm sorry princess." Aki trying to reply.. "I-It's.. ok." And so the Knight and the Princess went off to dwell in their dreams..

... Once up-- "I'm sorry I just wacked the narrator, cause this isn't chapter 3."Eiji interrupted. Narrator says "Oh.. Right i'm sorry.. But that hurt!!!" Eiji says "Well do it right!" **Moments later**

... It was a stormy night on the boat to japan. Eiji throwing up from sea-sickness of the side of the boat, Kenji comments "HA! What a wu--" He then gets interrupted by being sea-sick also and goes off to the side of the boat. A woman sitting on a crate just a bit younger then both Kenji and Eiji says "Pathetic.." She had blonde hair tied up in a jsamurai-like pony tail, an eye-patch on the right side, and a katana on her left waist. An even younger girl commenter her comment!! "K-sama.. That isn't really nice." K replies with a bad-ass "If your going to go on a long trip like this atleast be prepared.. Hmph" Eiji get's up trying to talk back against both of them "Hey!! Don'--"he was stopped by the younger girl throwing a bucket at his face. "I think.. What you did was worse Kiko.." K said. "My hand slipped.. Plus he talks to much!!" Eiji standing there with a bucket on his face. Kenji then stops throwing up.. and tries to help Eiji, but he also was struck by-- No wait he was struck by a crate from the captain. "Oops I was trying to throw it into the ocean!! HOHOHO" the captain said?

The storm seems to be getting worse. With bruises on their faces, Kenji and Eiji was sitting inside the boat as the rain poured on the main deck. K made Kiko apologize for her behaviour "I'm sorry.." Her eyes start to get watery. Eiji feeling bad replies "HA! What?! You don't have to be sorry! I can take those buckets anyday!" "Buckets?! I was hit with a crate!!" Kenji said. The captain comes down from the bridge and says or laughs "HOHOHO You are a lively bunch aren't you!?" The boat tips over a bit.. startleling everyone except the captain. K asks worryingly "So.. Who's steering the boat..?" The captain replies "HOHOHO The waves of course lad!" Kenji, Eiji, and Kiko yell "WHAT?!!?" As K sits there.. thinking "WHAT?!"

Eiji and Kenji endure sickness,buckets, and crates. While Kiko and K are even more worried about who's steering the boat?! "HOHOHO it seems we have a leak in the basement floor!"The captain says excitingly. Kiko then grabs Eiji by the face and throws his face into the hole. "There no more leaking!" Kiko said. The captain replies "Good thinking!" Eiji says..? "HAALPBLLLMEHH" It was a long and horrible boat storm, but it begins to settle.. as the sun starts to shine. The storm was no more. The whole group was on the maindeck. "Wahh!! It's so sunny!" Kiko commented. K replies "Yes.. A little to sunny." Eiji says..? "AHHBLAHHGUAH" and Kenji finally speaks "I'm sorry Eiji, but for our safety.. endure it a b--" Kiko grabs Kenji's face and throws it next to Eiji's. "HABLAHHGUAH" Kenji and Eiji both said.

The boat reaches the port slowly docking. The sea was calm, as Kiko and K got off the boat. Saying there farewells to the captain. As for Eiji and Kenji...
"Are you ready?"
"Only if you are."

Chapter 3 - I see you, You see me.

**In mid air** "KENJI!!" Eiji screamed as Kenji replies "YES?!" "WE'RE LANDING IN--" **Falls into the water** Moments after

... Once upon a time in a time when Japan still had samurais and ronins.. They were two that went through unimaginable tragedies.. after ones love.. wait a minute this is chapter 3! Many are involved with this story! As the two were soaking wet in a inn called "CHIB." A young lady comes out with two towels.. she seemed a little shy saying "H-Here.." Eiji was suddenly strucked in the heart by a sweet melody as he sees the girl. "H-HI!" Eiji yelled as the girl jumped back.. frightened. Eiji slowly walks up to her while drooling. The girl slowly going up against the wall saying "S-Stop.." Eiji continues to get closer. Until.. The shy girls attitude starts changing as if her personality completely changed! In a furious and fiery manner she pulls her fist back and pushes foward punching Eiji straight in the face..!!

Kenji commented "Yeah, I know it hurts being punched after seeing your loved one.. It happened to me." He remebers the ninja known as Kai. Eiji then wakes up in a bed next to Kenji's feet.. and faints from the horrible smell. In the next morning as the two goes downstairs for breakfast.. Another two were there. It was K and Kiko! "What are they doing here?!" Kenji said. "I don't know.. But I don't want to get hit by a bucket or a fist." Eiji whispered anxiously. Then suddenly both Kenji and Eiji were kicked down the stairs by the lady from yesterday! Kiko turns around and says "Hey look! It's Momo AKA Chib" K quiet, but surprised " And the two idiots.."

Mean while in Kyoto. "Ugh.. Another weird dream." Fate said. Aki then replies.. "A nightmare?" "No, It's about these two human like bunnies called Menji and Leiji.. They get on my nerves!!" Fate said. Aki then giggles..saying "Hehe.. It sounds like a funny dream." Fate then comments "I'm glad.. No one in this world is so idiotic." *Many miles from Kyoto* Both Eiji and Kenji sneazes.. "Eww..!!!" Kiko yells while sitting on the chair near the inn table. K then asks to both Eiji and Kenji "You guys aren't from here.. Where are you guys heading.. and where are you from?" Eiji replies "I.. have something to do." Then Kenji answers "I want to see the princess.." K then becomes silent.. Kenji asks about them. K answers "I have my reasons.." and Kiko answers "I'm heading back home to Kyoto! Speaking of which.. The princess and the foreigner are supposed to be there.." Kenji comments quickly "Really?! We should get going!"

Momo then comes out of the blue "I'm heading towards.. Kyoto too. If y-you can take me i'd be really happy.." Eiji then says "No problem!! I'll take you to the stars if you wanted to." "Then it's settled all five of us are headed to Kyoto!" Kenji said. Kiko excited about the journey.. as K and Momo stay quiet. Every one of them start packing for the journey tomorow.. and soon after sleep. Kiko dreams of a shrine. K dreams of a foreign land.. Momo dreams of the same place K does. Eiji dreams of a man with blueish-long hair. As for Kenji he dreams of.. Aki and being able to see her again.

The next morning back at the inn. "Is everyone ready?!" Kiko yells out. Momo says " Y-yes.." K then comes out through the door with her eyes closed and a bag over her shoulder. "But wait wheres Eiji and Kenji?" Kiko asked.

"Where doing this again..?
"Of course!"
"Well alright.."
"On the count of 3.."
"1..2..."

...Once up-- "... This is another .5 MANG!" Eiji yelled. Kiko says.. "HEY! I'm narrating now!!! Cause the narrator is on break!!" "Kiko...?"Eiji questioned...Then gulps. Screams can be heard.. Kenji comments "Didn't that sound.. like Eiji..?" K answering "What..? Eiji? Who's that?" "A-are you serious...?" Kenji said. Moments later..

"Hmm....."
"Hmm...!!!"
"HHMMM!!"
"This is sewious.."
"Would you two shut up...?!!?" Kiko yelled.. at Eiji and Kenji. While Eiji and Kenji can only be thinking of one thing.. while heading towards the hotsprings/inn. "Kenji.. We have two women..." Eiji said quietly.. As Kenji responded "But we have a problem.. what about the little girl over there?" Points at Kiko as the two walk ahead of the group. Kiko wondering what their talking about. "Ah...!! We made it to the hotsprings!!" Eiji yelled out in joy. Kenji thinking.."Princess.. Please forgive me!! I might die not seeing a womans body!!" Both of they determined.. with deep fire red eyes.

As the five entered through the front of the large hotsprings/Inn, they were greeted by an old woman and man. "Welcome.. To our hotsprings." The old woman said. Everyone else says hello as they walk in. Few minutes later as they are all in their comfortable clothing.. "So.. They have a hotsprings.. Huh?" Eiji said. Kiko then responds "DUH.. Eiji such an idiot.." As the other four including Kenji nods.. "HEY! Kenji you're supposed to take my side damnit!" Eiji yelled to Kenji. Then Kenji replied not pretending not to know "Huh? What?" "You bastard..." Eiji saying it as he holds his fist up..

As the group enjoy their dinner. Kenji and Eiji seem to be in a hurry for something.. It seems they ate really fast and left extremely quick. "Kenji hurry!" Eiji yelled, Kenji then replies " OK!!" After they left the dining room many stumbles were heard going upstairs. "Those two are weird? Aren't they girls?" Kiko comments. K stays quiet.. and heads to her room, sharpening noises can be heard from her room. As for Momo she stayed with Kiko, yet blushing and staying quiet. Sometime later.. "Are you guys ready for the hotsprings???" Kiko yelled out. The other two girls getting into the hotsprings changing room. As for Eiji and Kenji they weren't seen.. Again.

"Are preparations complete.. Kenji?"Eiji said, while Kenji replied "But of course.. Kekeke It's genius..!!!" As the two headed out in ninja peeping outfits. Giggling was heard by the two.. "We're very close.. I can feel it." "Yes.. Yes.. I can too.." The two seem to be plotting something devious and dangerous? Only time will tell.. OR The narrator which is Kiko at the moment, so yeah I WILL! "I think it's time.. We crawled all the way here.." Eiji said. Kenji replies "Yes.. Yes.. This is totally sewious" Then another voice is heard next to them "Most definately...." Both Kenji and Eiji look to the right.. "Who are you...?" Kenji asks.. The man with monocles answers " Who me? I'm .. Uhh A researcher.. More importantly, who is the person next to you..?" Eiji, Kenji, and the man with monocles look to the left.. "You're the old man!!!" Kenji yelled! "QUIET!!" Eiji yelled even louder! As the old man says "What..? This is normal isn't it..?" "It doesn't matter let us begin.." The monocle says as all of them nod their head.

"On the count of 3."
"Right.."
"3...2..."
"GO!"

The lifted their heads above the fence. Only to find... A woman in full clothing holding on to her katana.. It was none other then K!!!!!!! The monocle man runs before she notices. As for the rest of them. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" Their voices were never heard after that long scream.. *A picture showing them on the ground with graves, Was shown concluding 3.5*


CHAPTER 4 - Encounter.

Heavy breathing was being heard.. K was running through the forest, past the trees, slashing left, and right with her katana. "K-Chan!! Eiji!! Where are you?!" Kenji yelled out in the foggy forest.

"Tch.. I'm surrounded." K said, As a group of fourteen ronins surrounds her. She then unsheaths her sword letting a slight shine pass through the fog, then she raises up her katana pointing at one of the ronin. "What's your reason for doing this..?" K said. "I can answer that question." A man with monocles answered. She turns her head in shock, for she heard that similar voice before. "Kuschle..." she said quietly.
"K!! Eiji?!" Kiko,Kenji, and Momo yelled out. "I can't see anything through this fog..!" Kiko commented annoyed, Kenji then replies "Yeah.. Your right what do you think Momo?" Momo answers shyly.." Uhm.. I can't either.."

Somewhere in the foggy forest near a cliff. ".. How..? You can't be.. You're supposed to be dead.. Lu-" Eiji to surprised to finish his sentence. The man with blue hair says nothing, only staring. **Goes back to K's situation** "Well I can't answer now, but in do time I shall.. That is if you come out alive.." Kuschle aka CoG says deepening his voice "Now go forth men.." All fourteen men start running towards K, as she raises her katana even higher abover her head and swings down blindingly fast. All fourteen men.. fall after standing for a second. Kuschle starts clapping while saying "Bravo.. But I'm truthfully not impress with your skill, It has fallen K.. Or should I say Kari the knight of wind.. All this japanese culture is going to your head.. You're now even using their weapon." Kuschle then reaches over his shoulder.. slowly revealing his claymore. K stays quiet watching.. As Kuschle smirks says "Are you ready...?"

K versus Kuschle fight theme - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvAP-xk_8do&feature=related

As Kuschle and K stare eachother.. They raise their weapons.. A silent moment between them. They then rush towards eachother at fullspeed. K thinking to herself "Kuschle.. What are you doing here..?!?!" As they finally clashed, making the fog disappear for a short range and moment. K pulls her sword back, then swings from the right as if the wind was being sliced in half. Kuschle also pulls his sword back and then swings from the left making another huge clash!! That can be heard throughout the forest.. More of the fog begins to blow away. As their feet pushed against the ground making the ground crack, K does a 360 spin turning her sword to strike the other side.. As Kuschle lifts his sword and blocks the attack.

"Have you become slower?" Kuschle commented.. As K says "Shutup...!!" K releases the attack and jumps straight up in the air not long after starts coming down putting her sword foward in a stabbing motion. Kuschle jumps towards K coming down also putting his sword in a stabbing motion. Clashing in mid-air then slicing left and right as if Kuschle was copying her moves. As they both fall to the ground landing on their feets. "I think it's about time to end this pitiful fight isn't it.. Kari?" Kuschle said, as K commented angrily "Don't.. call me that.." "But is that not your name?"Kuschle continues to mock her. "Well it doesn't matter cause now the battle is going to end with you on the floor Kari-Sama." Kuschle says confidently. Until suddenly K's image just vanished and appeared behind Kuschle. "It's over... brother.." K then slashes downward slicing Kuschle inhalf as he splits apart.. and falls to the ground.

** A few moments after the battle.. ** "No blood..?" K asked. As the same voice was heard again "Of course not.. After all cutting an illusion doesn't mean you've won." Kuschle said as he disappeared in the fog. Kenji,Momo, and Kiko finally caught up to K. "K!!" Kenji yelled out "Your ok!.." K replies "Yes.. I'm fine.. But where is Eiji..?"

** Another part of the foggy forest..** "..Seeing you again hurts.. You know?" Eiji said cheerfully looking at the pond. The man with blue hair just stays quiet.. As Eiji continues talking "The forest of Illusions... We've travelled here once haven't we...?" Eiji carries on talking "The fog is .. disappearing Lulu.. We might see eachother again.. Without it being a illusion right..?" ** The fog.. disappears slowly as the day becomes lighter**

"EIJI!!!!!" Kenji yells. Eiji doesn't turn his head from the pond. K stays quiet.. from the even just happened. Eiji wiping his face,turning, then smiling.. "Eiji you've been fishing or something?! Come on!" Kiko scolds him. ".. K has some wounds.. we should help her." Momo said. "Come on Eiji... To kyoto.." Kenji said. And so.. The five of them leave the forest together....~

Kenji continues to have determined eyes as they all go to, Momo's inn. As they arrived to Momo's inn the title of the inn said... "CHIB with an S." Eiji comments "Oh that's original.." Momo's expression into a fiery one changes "You've got a problem with that?!!?" "No ma'am." Eiji replied quickly. K looks over Kenji saying " Are you nervous..?" "Me nervous? No way.." Kenji answered "Well I should put Kiko to bed.. she already fell asleep." Eiji looking outside as the sun fell "Yeah, Let's all get some rest tomorow is a big day! Kenji can go see his woman." And so they all went to sleep.

**During the middle of the night** Footsteps can be heard. "What's that noise..?" Kenji thinking to himself as he get's up and follows to where the sound is coming from. As he head downstairs the footsteps continued outside and so he continued to follow. Now on the streets he looks around seeing Momo from a distance as Momo walks into a alley way.. "Momo..? What's she doing up so early.." Kenji continues to follow."How far is this girl planning.. to walk!?" Kenji commented. Finally Momo stopped in a dark court. ".. I'm here" Momo seemed to be talking to herself. Kenji finally catches up.. seeing Momo and saying "Mo-" He stopped as two men walked up to Momo. ".. Hideaki, Kotaro, and wheres Sorrow?" Momo asked. The man known as Hideaki answered "He isn't coming, now that your here we can start.. Now hurry before someone sees us." "Sees you..?" A unfamiliar voice appears.

"Correction.. You've already been spotted." The unknown man said. "Not good.. He isn't alone.." Hideaki said.. as Kotaro replies "We can't stay to long.. were dealing with the leader of the knights." "You men have no escape. This has already been predicted.." The man said while unsheathing his sword with a golden lion on the hilt of the sword. The man starts rushing.. towards Momo with his sword. Until suddenly a yell is heard "Yo! Don't even think about it..." It was non-other then Kenji. Momo in shock "Kenji..?" "Momo.. Hurry.. Leave i'll hold them off." Kenji said. As Kotaro and Hideaki took Momo and fled. "Well apparantly my plans have been foiled by one man." The man said. "Yeah.. Well I don't know what is going on, but you had the attention in your eyes to kill her mister.. I coudn't allow that."Kenji spoke fiercly.

"I see you have determination in your eyes,but how long shall that last.. I am known as Damion De Lioncourt. Leader of the Knights." Damion said standing straight. Kenji replying back "Knights..? The foreignors..? That explains your outfit.." "Well.. Let's get this over it's way to early in the morning to be staying up.."Kenji said determined to beat Damion. "Very well.. This will end shortly, I assure you." Damion staring at his shining blade. He then puts his sword back in his scabbard. "What are you.. done already..?" Kenji commented."No, I just thought it was unfair for you since you do not have a weapon.. and in this way I can show you the gap between us." Kenji getting angry as his comment rushes in with a left punch as Damion quickly dodges to the right. Damion then grabs Kenji's left arm and puts it around his back.. "..W-what're.. going to ask me to give up.. just cause you have me in this position.." Kenji struggled to say. "No, I'm going to break you arm no questions asked." Damion said right before putting pressure on Kenji's left arm and finally breaking it.

"AHHHHH!!!" Kenji yelling out in pain.. though still standing. As Damion started walking away. "I-I'm.. not done yet.." Kenji still having determination in his eyes. Damion turns around.. and walks straight to Kenji with a straight right fist into Kenji's face. Kenji falls and stumbles.. as Damion steps on the broken arm. "Argh..." Kenji trying to hold his pain.. Damion then lifts his leg up only to.. kick Kenji straight in the face and then pushing down making the ground go in.. Kenji only feeling the pain in his arm.. and the foot crushing down on his face, though he can slightly open his eyes..

Behind Damion.. a large group of people were walking. It was the royals.. of Europe and Japan walking together. Many royals walked by.. Some of the other knights also (Omnis, Kuschle, Nate.. Note only some)). A man with blonde hair walked next a woman, but it wasn't just a woman to.. Kenji.

Kenji.. not being able to say a word, as he was forced to stay quiet from Damion. Thinking only to himself.. "Aki... Aki..! Aki..." Kenji finally able to let some noise out... "Aki..!!!!" "Did you hear something princess?" Fate said as Aki replying "No.. Why did you..?" Fate then says "It must've been my imagination.. I'm sorry my dearest love.." Aki blushes once more. The voice of Kenji's was not heard.. Tears start to flow from Kenji's eye even being crushed.. As the group had fled Damion finally released and.. walks away without a word.

Kenji laying on the ground from all the wounds. Still haven't gotten up.. Only laying there thinking.. "Damn it.. Am I.. That weak..? She didn't.. even notice me.. Was I ignored....?.. Was this journey a waste..?" He layed there for the rest of the night.. Finally getting up remebering the time they spent together that one.. and only night they had. "Aki.. I love you.. I don't know if this is just lust.. or whatever, but I won't quit.. Not now. I need to get stronger.."

**Fate and Aki on a small bridge** "I can't help it, but I think i'm forgetting something.." Aki talking to Fate "Really? Like what.. It seems to be something important." "No.. I'm sure it's nothing, I'm probably just tired from all the preparations of tomorow." Aki said. "Well princess let me escort you to bed." Fate replied.

Kenji walking back to the inn. He opens the inn door..as someone calls out for him.. "Kenji! There you are Momo is--.." Eiji stopped. "K.. Teach me how to fight.." Kenji said right before he collapsed to the ground. "I'll take him to the bed.."Eiji said carrying Kenji off. "..W-why is Kenji.. beat up like that?" Kiko asked looking frightened. K replying "We can ask him.. when he wakes up. For now let him rest.. More importantly who did this.. and where is Momo?"

Eiji comes back downstairs saying "I'm going to investigate.." K then says "I'm coming too. Kiko stay here and take care of Kenji." "O-ok.." Kiko replied. "We need to first look for Momo.." Eiji told K "I know.. but where do we start, we don't even have a clue until Kenji wakes up."

**It has become the evening Eiji and K has splitten up to find clues while the festival is going on welcoming foreignors to the land.** In the middle of Kyoto's festival a large stage was set up. Eiji watching in the back.. with many crowded people. Eiji wondering what all the commotion is about looks to the stage.. Noticing the princess giving prayers. "Is that.. the one Kenji wants to see? It has to be.." Eiji continues watching. "On behalf of my father the emperor I am welcoming the foreignors to the land" Aki speaking to the whole crowd. Until suddenly smoke bombs were dropped on the stage!! People were screaming and yelling.. "What's going on!?!?" Pushing and shoving..

As the smoke disappeared.. Aki was no longer there, and the gaurds protecting her were already dead. Eiji noticed they kidnappers fleeing in the forest.. and quickly followed. Deep into the forest Eiji followed.. being able to keep up. "I see them.. They aren't that far.. At this rate I can catch up..!" One of the kidnappers stopped in the middle of the forest noticing Eiji following them.. Eiji stopped once he saw the man in his way. "Let the princess go.."Eiji demanded. ".. Sorry, but I can't let that happen." Kotaro said.

**To Fate** "W-what..!? Aki was kidnapped..?!?"Fate questioned. "Yes, I believe it was (them).." Nate one of the knights said. "I'm leaving.. Do not tell the rest, it'll be easier if I left to find them alone..

CHAPTER 6 - Wake up.. Kenji!!

Opening Theme - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2TXfe70M58&feature=related


...Once upon a time when shoguns and samurais existed two had their eyes set on the princess. "It's cloudy..." Kiko said sitting next to Kenji's bed. ".. It'll probably start raining.. soon." Kenji said struggling to get up from the bed. Kiko comments "Don't get up! Your still wounded.. Just sit.." "I... can't *struggling* I can't just.. Sit here feeling sorry for myself.." Kenji struggling to speak. "You're going to sit there wether you like it or not.." K said as she walked in the room sliding the door behind her "The princess has been kidnapped.. and Eiji has gone missing." "W-what...?! Aki... Eiji." Kenji not knowing what to do.


**Outskirts of Kyoto. Grasslands** "Who are you..?" Eiji asked with a serious look in his eyes. Kotaro then answers "I'm not just going to tell you, after you asked me.. Let's just end this.. I have to catch up to Ito soon." "Sorry, but I don't plan on letting you leave until you tell me.." Eiji smirking. "Fine.. Sorry if you lose a limb or two.." Kotaro says as he raises his right hand revealing what seems to be rings. "Your going to tell me where the princess is.." Eiji demanded while taking out a knife from his sleeve. As Eiji stood there looking for an opening, a womanly figure came from the trees. "Ah.. Momo you're here." Kotaro noticed her coming. "Momo..?" Eiji questioned.

"Momo what're doing here..?" Eiji asking Momo as she answers "Eiji... I'm sorry.." "You two seem to know each other.. that's great now I can catch up while you deal with him, Momo." Kotaro commenting. "Momo.. You're on their side..?" Eiji asked another question as for this time Momo stayed quiet. Kotaro took his leave and said "We'll be near the waterfall hurry over.." Momo continued to stay silent as she nodded. "Momo.. Why..? Look.. just come back and everything will be fine.. Ok..?" Momo then replies "Eiji.. I can't there is someone.. I have to see." "Momo.. I understand.. There is someone I have to see too, but this just isn't the way..! Kidnapping the princess while everyone is worried about..?!" Eiji says trying to bring Momo back. "I'll bring you by force if I have to.." Eiji said. Momo then replies ".. This fight is already over.." "W-what.. are yo-- .." Eiji noticing on his left and right shoulders.. " Needl--" Eiji then falls to the ground as the blood comes out of his nose and ears."The needles send out an eletric-shock through the victims body and comes out leaving a two-way wound.." Momo explained as she left " I'm sorry.. Eiji, but I have to see Lelouke..."

**Deeper in the forest, away from Kyoto.** "It seems the little lady is still knocked out." Ito said while running through the forest with Kotaro. "It's.. better if she just stayed quiet anyways.." Kotaro commented until suddenly, a man comes jumping and attacking with his blade from the right. Kotaro jumps and dodges to the left, the blade had almost hit him. "Another.. Interruption, but this time.. It's going to be harder.."Kotaro commented. Ito had already fled with the princess on his back. The man known as Fate stood infront of Kotaro facing him. "Head the princess over.." Fate demanded. Kotaro then replies "Sorry, but the other guy kind of just left if you hadn't noticed.." Then another man comes from behind Kotaro with a sword pointed at his head. "Made it.." Kuschle said. Finally a third man walks next to Fate, he was a man with messy white hair.. holding a very large object wrapped in bandages. "Yo! I'm Omnis.."

"You scared me... Kuschle." Kotaro saying as if he wasn't worried. "I had to make a believable entrance, Kotaro." Kuschle said. "What does he mean by that.. Kuschle!?" Fate questioning what's going on. "It simple... a word called 'betrayal' ever heard of it?" Kuschle says as he lets his sword drop from Kotaro's neck. "Should have known.." Omnis said. Two men on each side staring at eachother for a moment then split.. Fate and Kotaro going left into the forest,as Omnis and Kuschle they went right.

**Omnis VS Kuschle** "Mind telling me why you've betrayed us..?" Omnis asked. "Well.. I don't feel like telling you, maybed if you were someone like Kari." Kuschle answered. "Heh.. Doesn't matter cause I always wanted to kick your ass.. and now I get the chance." Omnis commented. "Hmm.. A fighting quite spirit you have there Omnis." Kuschle says before raising his sword in a fighting stance. Omnis then pulls on the loose bandage, revealing a large sword, bigger then himself. ((As thick as Clouds, but bigger.)) A sword that stood 7 foot.. "Let's begin." Omnis said.

Omnis versus Kuschle theme - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGnc0B1wnIY

Kuschle rushes foward for a head on attack, while Omnis pulls his gigantic sword back getting ready to swing. "Got you..!" Omnis says right before he swings his blade horizontally cutting Kuschle's..... After image. "I'm above you..!!" Kuschle comes down slashing vertically from mid-air. Omnis dodges and roles to the right, he then pulls his sword back and swings creating a huge gust of wind pushing, Kuschle back. "That sword packs quite a punch.." Kuschle commented. "Heh.. When can I say?" Omnis replied.. As Omnis runs towards Kuschle swinging his sword to the right, Kuschle not being able to move cause of the gust of wind blocks the attack with all his might.. and gets thrown by the sword into a boulder. "Done already..?" Omnis smirked as he commented. The smoke and debri covering the site.. for a few moments until Kuschle suddenly jumps to the air "Think again..!" Kuschle says right before coming down vertically slashing onto Omnis's shoudler. "Argh... Heh.. Got me there." Omnis says while being wounded on his left shoulder "But I ain't done yet..!!"

Right when Kuschle reaches the floor, Omnis comes running and pulling his sword up to swing straight down.. As Kuschle quickly raises his sword up to block the attack coming down. A huge impact hit Kuschle causing the ground to sink, but was able to push Omnis away. *Huff.. Huff..* breathing heavily as Kuschle wipes the blood from his mouth. "Hey.. don't.. *huff* tell me you're done.." Omnis says while bleeding from his cut.
"The next.."
"Attack will.."
"Determine the.."
"Victor..!!" Both Kuschle and Omnis yelled out charging at eachother.

**Fate VS Kotaro?** "You must be the knight, so dedicated in protecting Japan's princess.. Otherwise known as Fate, correct?" Kotaro asked. "I am.." Fate answers as points his blade at Kotaro. Kotaro then raises his right hand revealing, yet again what seems to be rings on each of his fingers. "Come.. at me if you wish to save your princess!!" Kotaro yelled. As Fate comes charging in with his blade continuesly pointed at Kotaro. "Fool.." Kotaro said right when Fates sword barely touched Kotaro's forehead "You've already been trapped." ".. Why can't I move.. my body?!" Fate confused. Finally noticing wires wrapped around his ankles and arms "Damnit.." Fate said. "You've lost.." Kotaro commented as he pulled a single wire with his fingers.

Suddenly the wires were cut letting Fate free. "Who..??!" Kotaro yelling out. A woman standing with a younger woman. "I think he knows where.. the princess is!" Kiko said. "He's the knight known as Fate..." K commented. ".. You're Kari the Knight of wind!! You saved me, but why?" Fate asking surprised. K then answers "It wasn't me.. that saved your life." "Then who..?!" Fate asked again.

From behind K and Kiko a man comes walking behind bruised and cut. "I'm.." the man with a familiar voice answered "Kenji.. Saoiji.." Fate turns to the man holding a Katana. "Sorry.. K, I stole your katana just to seem cool Eheh.." Kenji chuckled. "Just make sure you give it back." Sighing as K said it. "I told you not to come..!! Now i'm going to use you as a plug for every single boat leaking in the world!!" Kiko scolding Kenji. "Sorry.. I had to Kiko, I have to find Eiji and Aki.." Kenji struggling to stand, using the Katana as a cane. "Tch... Pretty boy had some friends.. "Kotaro commented. "Now it's my turn.." Fate jumps back as he said. "Aki wait for me..." Kenji finally said.

CHAPTER 7 - Yo~

**Eiji's mind as he's passed out in the grassland** "Lulu, I haven't forgotten.. The many lives you've changed either good or bad.." Eiji thinking in his mind. "You wanted to changed the world right...?" Eiji continuesly thinking in his mind. "Eiji.. The people you meet, the lives you change.. They only can stay, if the world changes." Lulu says. "Is that so..? What world do you want to change it into..? A peaceful one?" Eiji asks Lulu. "That is for me to know.. And for you to find out, that is if you come with me..?" Lulu replies with a question. "People want revenge against'ed you.. others want to help you. I don't understand Lulu.."Eiji said.**The memories fade away as Eiji opens his eyes only to see the gray clouds taking over the sky**

Opening theme - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXga7VGTIpA

The gray and grim looking clouds have taken over the skies, it's light. "You think Eiji will be fine..?" Kiko asking in a worried look in her eyes. "He'll be fine.. He went through the forest of illusions by himself." K answered Kiko. Fate standing across from Kotaro says "Are you ready..? The real fight is about to begin.. I'm not going to make a foolish mistake like that again." Kotaro then replies "Oh, Really? We will see won't we.." "HEY! Don't forget me!!" Kenji yells out to the both of them. "Who is that guy again..?" Kotaro says as Fate replies "I think.. He saved my life, but whatever." Kenji crying inside...

"I'm going to look for Eiji!" Kiko says while running into another part of the forest, without consent. "She left, but I should stay with Kenji.." K said. "Unfortunetly this is the end for all three of you.. You guys should of ran like that other little girl did." Kotaro said. "Like I said.. I won't make the same foolish mistake.." Fate says determined to beat Kotaro. Soon after, Kotaro points at trees around him. "What's he doing..?" Kenji asks K. "It's some form of ninjutsu.." K answered. Then the forest around them starts to get darker revealing white wires tied around trees. Kotaro chanting "Strings of life be consumed.. by the flames of darkness." The white strings start to turn black as a purple flame cover each one. "W-what's going on..?" Kenji asked.


Conclusion Omnis VS Kuschle theme - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LG5oPMwK2tU&feature

**Conclusion Omnis and Kuschle** Kuschle putting his sword in his sheath on his back. "Kuschle... *Cough* Why..?"" Omnis says while laying on the ground. Kuschle then replies "It's simple.. I'm tired of nonsense, the new world will be born." Kuschle then walks into the dark forest. As Omnis with four wounds on his body bleeding, another man comes taking Omnis and putting him over his shoulder. "A knight has betrayed us.. Another knight has fallen." Damion said while carrying Omnis. "Don't worry you'll live, Omnis.." Damion told Omnis.

**Fate, Kotaro, Kenji, and K* The trees covered in dark wires covered in purple flames, looked like walls of webs. "Is it me.. Or the whole place got darker." Kenji commented. "This is my true ability.. You are all trapped unless I say so." Kotaro said. "Give me my katana, Kenji." K demanded from Kenji.. "I can't fight too!.." Kenji replied. "You want to die?! You almost died before making everyone worried.." K for the first time seemed worried about Kenji. Kenji then nods and gives K her katana.

**Ito and Aki** Ito rushing through the deep forest, getting deeper, and deeper. Ito finally stop to set a campfire. "Hmm.. She's still not awake yet, well I should cook some of that fish I caught earlier.." Ito said while getting the fish from his pack to cook. A few moments later, "Where.. Am I..?" Aki says as she wakes up. "You're deep in the forest princess." Ito answering Aki. "W-what?! Y-you kidnapped me..!" Aki yelling. "I did, Now eat up before the fish gets burnt.."Ito saying to Aki when she realizes there is fish next to the fire."Oh.. Ok.. Wait! You're not going to.. kill me or touch me or anything?!" Aki said. "Eh.. The princess takes me as a pervert." Ito commented. "No, I'm not going to do anything to you.. My mission is to bring you to the waterfalls near here." Ito explained. "W-Why are you telling me this..?" Aki asking Ito. "Well.. You seemed nervous, so I explained to you is all." Ito answered.

"Listen.. I'm not here to hurt you princess."Ito continuing to explain. "He doesn't seem bad.." Aki thinking outloud. Ito replying "I can hear you.." Aki then says "I know!! I just was thinking.." "Well eat up.. we're leaving soon."Ito commented. "O-Ok.." Aki said. After eating and resting up, Ito carried Aki away. Going farther into the forest, heading towards the waterfall.

**Fate, Kotaro, Kenji, and K** "Kenji stand back.. It seems Fate wants to do this alone." K said. Fate raises his blade again ready to strike. Kotaro raises his right hand revealing rings covered with chains this time. Kotaro releases the chains, letting them dangle with blades attached to each of the chains. "This time.. We finish this..!" Fate charges slashing horizontally at Kotaro as he disappears in thin-air. "What..?!" Fate commenting as he missed. 'Aha.. You're in my world now.. Knight, You believe you can beat me..?!" Kotaro says coming out from the dark shadows of the ground, across from Fate.

Fate VS Kotaro theme - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVXt1g6Vr-o&feature=

"You will be chained and consumed by my flames!" Kotaro says as he jumps in the air swinging his right arm at Fate. Fate tries blocking the attack, only to be slashed by the blades. "Tch..!" Fate being pushed back. "Normal tactics won't work.. Fate, You may win in a sword duel. But I do not hold a blade of sort.." Kotaro smirks when saying. "It isn't over.. Yet!!" Fate rushes towards Kotaro slashing upwards as Kotaro steps to the left dodging the attack. Kotaro then swings his chain-claws at Fates leg making multiple wounds. "ARGH!.." Fate yelling in pain as he falls to his knees. Kotaro then swings at Fate's neck trying to finish it. "I told you.. I'm not done yet!!!" Fate says as he ducks lower dodging the attack. Then Fate comes stabbing upwards, as Kotaro just barely dodging the attack gets pushed away. "You won't just go down easily will you.." Kotaro said. Fate standing with wounds on his leg and chest saying "Like I said.. It's my turn."

Kotaro then raises his chains as the purple flames appear on his chain-claws. Kotaro then rushes while letting his chain-claw scratch the ground. Fate rushes foward slashing horizontally, while Kotaro slashes vertically upwards. The dark purple flame expanded in Fates face as they clashed!! "How..?!" Fate being slashed several times around his body right after the flames disappeared. Kotaro standing away from Fate answers "You can't beat me.." Kotaro then turns around with his claws in the air. Fate turns slashing horizontally only to miss again. "AH!!" Fate being slashed continuesly by the claws. Kotaro finally jumps back after..

"I will now end your life..!!" Kotaro points at Fate with his left-hand as the wires of flames wraps around Kotaros pointing finger. Fate bleeding from almost every part of his body.. rushes towards Kotaro yet again. "Fool..." Kotaro says when a huge blast of the darkish-purplelish flame shoots out of his finger, looking as if it consumed Fate. " "He's dead.. ?!" Kenji yelled out. K then replied.. "Not yet~" Fate suddenly slashes vertically slashing the flame in half. A blue-ish aura surrounded Fate as he said "I told you.. It's my turn." Kotaro then replies ".. He cut my flame in half?!" Fate rushes towards Kotaro with the blue-ish aura around him, as Kotaro gets ready to shoot a second one! Suddenly Fate's speed increased as he dashed with full speed "AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Fate yelled out, as Kotaro shoots an even bigger flame towards Fate!! **BOOOMM!!!**

Conclusion of duel - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2HHJNtbcQI&feature=related

Kotaro barely standing.. with a huge diagnole slash-wound. ".. Heh.. *Cough*" Kotaro then falls to the ground. Fate also falls to the ground with many wounds on his body. The battle was over as the strings of darkness began to disappear, when finally it returned to do the gray clouds it was before the battle. "We should take them both with us.. they're bound to know where Eiji and the princess is." K said. "This is just to much.. What's going on.." Kenji said to himself. As they carried them off into the forest. As Kotaro is being carried on Kenji's back he opens his mouth just barely saying "..The waterfall." K then replied "The waterfall..? Then they must be.." They started heading towards the waterfall.

**Kiko** "Eiji!! Where are you!!" Kiko yelled out looking for Eiji. As she kept looking around a dark figure quickly passing by as if it was a ninja. "Huh? Is that you Eiji?!" Kiko continued yelling out. When she finally reached the grasslands, she found Eiji laying in the grass. "Eiji..!" Kiko comes running next to Eiji "Are you ok..?" Kiko asked. Eiji answers "I-I'm fine, Kiko what are you doing here...?" Kiko then answers "I came looking for you while Kenji and K were at another fight.." Kiko then lifts Eiji up and rests him on her shoulder. "You and Kenji.. are the same.. getting everyone worried.." Kiko said in tears. "Aha.. I'm sorry.." Eiji replies as Kenji and K finally get's to the grasslands. "Guah.. Eiji got beat up too.."Kenji said. "He seems fine though.." K commented as they rushed towards him. "Eiji you should go back and rest.." Kenji says as Eiji replies "..*Heavy breathing* No way.. I'm coming too, I ain't going to be left behind. I mean.. Just look at you, you were beat up too." They both chuckled.

**Waterfall** Ito and Aki finally reached the waterfall where they are supposed to be. When suddenly shurikens came flying towards Ito, as he kicks them away. A ninja comes out saying, "hand her over.." As Aki yelled out "Kai!! You came!" Ito then says, "Sorry, I can't do that.." Ito walks infront of Aki and lifts both his fists up in a fighting stance. Kai then does the same saying, "So you know.. the assasins fist aswell? Shingetsuryuushen.((Totally made up))" The two stare at eachother when suddenly two men appear above the waterfall. One of them having long white hair, and carrying a black coffin with a redcross on his back. The other has blue hair and is wearing a mask with two-faces((Drama mask)).

CHAPTER 8 - Friend~


The heavy rain was pouring one day. A little girl sitting in the rain, cold, hungry, dirty; was merely six. The rain just kept pouring as she was sitting in the streets of Kyoto abandoned. People just walked by paying no attention, enjoying their lives, their drinks, their women. No one paid attention to the little girl. Until a little boy walking with his mom walks by, saying "Here!" The boy gives her money to go buy food, "My mommy says it's good to help people.. My name is Kotaro by the way!" The boy and his mother walked away.


"H-help.." The little girl said copying the other little boy. Another boy came by, he looked 2 years older then her. "Hi!" The boy with blue hair said while standing in the rain. "What's your name..?" The blue haired boy asked. "M-my name..? I-I.. Kiko.." The little girl said. "Nice to meet you! My name is Lelouke! but you can call me Lulu." The blue haired boy smiling as he said it. "Take my hand.. Kiko~" Lulu extended his hand. The rain stopped pouring as she took his hand.

** A week has gone by ** "Lulu..! Who's this friend we're going to meet up with later?" Kiko asked. Lulu then replies "Well.. He's an idiot, but don't worry about that just eat up.. Mmkay?" "Ok.. *Chomp* Chomp*" Kiko finished her meal. As they walked along Kyoto's road, they chatted and had fun like they were friends. They continued walking on the bridge when it was spring time, the time of the cherry blossoms. "Wow.. What are those.. trees they're so pretty." Kiko asked. "You don't know what they are?" Lulu asked back. Kiko shakes her head. "Well they're called cherry blossoms.. they usually bloom during spring and summer time. "Really?" Kiko asked again. "Mhmm~ So enjoy them all you can" Lulu smiled.

** The road to Osaka ** "Where almost there right?!" Kiko said cheerfully. "Yeah.. You're going to meet lots of my friends! Like .. Ito a really good guy, Soruiw a really sorrowful guy *Chuckles*, Mimiko a cutie, and finally Ei--" Lulu gets interrupted as he starts coughing.. "Lulu are you ok?!" Kiko asks as she is right beside him. "I'm fine.. *Cough* Cough* I just need to rest a little.." Lulu said as he sat next to a tree. Another little girl was walking with her parents "Look daddy, mommy!! I think he needs some help!" she yelled out. "Ah.. So he does, Let me get my medicine out." The father said as he took the medicine out of his pack and handed it to Lulu. Lulu grabbed the medicine and used it, "I-Im.. alright now, thankyou.." he thanked the older man. "Don't thank me.. Thank my daughter, Momo." The father said as Lulu then nods and says "Thankyou, Momo.." Momo then replies "You're welcome!!" "Are you two traveling alone..?!" The mother asked Kiko and Lulu. "Well Yeah, but we'll be fine!" Kiko answered. The mother then responds "No, No You two are coming with us until we get to Osaka."

"Look isn't this better? You get to have a free meal with us." The father said as Lulu replied, "It is.. Thankyou once again." They group sat next to a fire in the forest, while enjoying a warm dinner. Soon after the dinner they all got some rest and then a couple hours later they all wake up to get on with their journeys. "Almost at Osaka!!" The father cheered. "DAD! You're so embarrasing..." Momo said as she blushed, they all starting laughing and having a great time. They finally reach Osaka after a while..

**Osaka** A boy with long white-hair comes running saying, "Yo!" "Soruiw!!" Lulu greeted him back. Right after other young peepz come running behind, "Hey!!" "Lulu!!" "You're back!?". Another boy says, "Who's the people behind you?" Lulu answers, "Friends.. This is Momo and that is Kiko. Speaking of people.. wheres Eiji? Ito." Ito replies "Well.. He wanted to follow you to your trip in Kyoto, but ended up going the opposite direction.." The girl behind, Soruiw giggles saying "It's good to have you back!" "Thanks, Mimiko." Lulu replied. Lulu then asks Momo and her parents to come rest at their place since they don't have any other places to stay. The parents and Momo agreed. Kiko still acting shy greeted them all.

The placed they lived and slept in was an abandoned shrine. During the night Ito, Soruiw, and Kiko were asleep leaving only Momo, Lulu, Mimiko, and the parents of Momo awake. ".. Daddy why are we running away from the emperor..?" Momo asked her father, while they were in the bedroom getting ready to sleep. "Hun.. They are things left a secret.."Mr.Gehenna said. "But.. I really want to know..!!" Momo demanding her father. "Honey maybe it's time we tell her.." Mrs. Gehenna said. Mr.Gehenna says, "Alright.. But keep this a secret from all your under friends.. As you know we a royal family the emperor liked us quite a bit, so we can get close.." Momo nodded as the door slightly slid open right when someone was going to enter. ".. I killed the emperors wife.." Mr.Gehenna said. "W-what..?" Momo replied. "I know, but we had no othe-- Did you hear something?" Mr. Gehenna looks at the door being slightly open seeing a eye wide open. "They heard us.." Mr.Gehenna said as he grabbed his dagger from his pack and open the door.. Only to find that no one was there.

Footsteps were heard running outside, Mr.Gehenna went outside to look for the one who heard them. Soon after many torches can be seen outside, figures of many soldiers stood outside the shrine. "The emperors army is here.." Mrs. Gehenna said with a worried look. As the soldiers stood outside, Everyone else had awaken. "What was that noise..?" Soruiw said as Mimiko held on to his arms. "I'm not sure.. let's find, Lulu." Ito said answering Sorr-- I mean Soruiw. A soldier outside yells out, "The Gehenna family ordered by the Emperor is to be executed!!" The shrine doors began to open, as the soldiers were coming in. "Quick!! Hide!!" Mrs. Gehenna opened the little hatch, then shoved Momo in, and covered the hatch with a futon. Kiko, Ito, Soruiw, and Mimiko escaped through the back of the shrine.. The soldiers then grabbed Mrs.Gehenna and took her outside.

"Where is your husband..?!!?" General Akaekyou demanding as Mrs.Gehenna knelt down on the ground tied up. As Momo crawled through the small pathway, she saw the rest of her friends. Ito sees Momo, but is seemed to be focusing on something else. Mimiko crying in Soruiws chest.. Kiko looking shocked. Momo finally reaches the end of the small pathway and gets out only to find.. Her father laying on the ground with his own dagger in his own neck..

Lulu standing above Momo's father, with blood on half of his face. He's eyes wide open as if he craved to kill.. "I-I.. Killed him.." Lulu said as the blood dripped from the tip of his finger tips. Momo didn't say anything, only standing there with her hands over her mouth as the tears came down from her eyes. "L-Lulu.. Why..?" Ito asked. Lulu stayed quiet only looking at the lifeless body laying on the ground. Momo's mother comes walking from behind the corner, beaten, violated, and still tied up. Momo notices her mother and starts running for her yelling, "Mommy!!" A soldier walked behind Mrs.Gehenna slowly carrying a axe. Finally the soldier swang the axe at Mrs.Gehenna's neck. The blood spurted all over Momo's face as she ran towards her Mom. "Mo-- my.." Momo said as she stopped running. General Akaekyo came walking from the corner saying, "Grab anyone who was involved with them! I want them infront of me tied up.. and kneeling down." Ito quickly grabbed Momo and made a run for it through the forest..

Kiko, Lulu, Mimiko, and Soruiw were tied and forced to be on their knees. "Those who helped those traitors are to be executed.." General Akaekyo said. The soldiers nodded. Lulu kneeling without a word, get's up. "You there get back on your knees!!" The soldier demanded, as he took out his blade and pointed at Lulu's neck. As the soldier attacked with his blade, Soruiw pushed Lulu out of the way making him get slashed upon the shoulder. "Fool... Kill the bleeding on first." General Akaekyo said. The soldier then takes his blade and pulls it back getting ready to stab Soruiw. As the soldier thrusted foward with his blade as Mimiko quickly get's infront of Soruiw facing him.

"Soruiw... I.. Love you." Mimiko said as the blade was through her chest. The soldier then pulled the sword out of Mimiko. "Tch.. This children are all fools!" The general said again. Mimiko then fell foward as Soruiw tried to reach for her, yet his hands tied back can only watch her fall.. "Kill him next..!!" General Akaekyo said pointing as Soruiw. Soruiw in complete rage and sadness rushes towards the soldier who killed Mimiko, and headed butted the soldier straight in the face. He then held the blade in his mouth and sliced the soldiers neck open. ".. W-what in the.. Wait.. I know that girl." General Akaekyo said pointing at Kiko. "That's Kikoren Kasanagi.. A shrine priestest take her away!" The guards then grab, when suddenly Lulu get's out of his ropes and grabs the dagger off the body quickly. He rushes towards the general saying, "KIKO!!!!" The general to surprised, was to late in taking out his sword. Lulu lunged straight into the generals eye.. and as the general fell, Lulu continuesly kept stabbing the generals face..

"These kids are crazy..!!! RUN!!!" The soldiers fled, as they took Kiko with them. "Lulu!!! NO!!" Kiko cried out. Soruiw dropped to his knees next to, Mimiko's body. As Lulu continuesly stabbed the general in the face, even after the general was dead. "No... Mi-- You can't-- No.." Soruiw lifting Mimiko's head onto his lap. Lulu finally stopped as tears dropped on the body from Lulu's eyes. They spent the rest of the night sitting and staying the the same spot. Until another boy came running up the stairs.. "Hey..!!! Are you guys ok?!" The boy reached them asking.

It started raining once again. The heavy, pouring rain washed the blood off their faces..**Hours Later** The boy asked,"You wanted to changed the world right...?" "Eiji.. The people you meet, the lives you change.. They only can stay, if the world changes." Lulu says. "Is that so..? What world do you want to change it into..? A peaceful one?" Eiji asks Lulu. "That is for me to know.. And for you to find out, that is if you come with me..?" Lulu replies with a question. The rain didn't stop...

"You guy's are late.. I just got attacked by this guy." Ito said. Sorrow then reply's "Sorry, but we were in europe.. Kind of explains our outfit no?" Sorrow continues to stand at the top of the waterfall with the other person. Kai then demands, "Hand the princess back or else.. I'll be forced to use all the strenght I can to get her back." "Hmm.. All the strenght..? Is it that much?" Ito comments. Sorrow then says, "Get on with the show!! I'm tired of waiting.. Jeez.." "Fine.. Don't blame me if this fight ends quick." Ito says as he cracks he's knuckles. Suddenly the man with blue-hair appears behind Aki,knocks her out, and takes her to the top of the waterfall. "I woudn't want you to get hurt." The masked man said.

**Heading towards the waterfall** "We have to hurry..!" Kiko said, as Kenji and K carry Kotaro and Fate. Eiji follows closely behind. The clouds continue to cover the sky, as they continue heading towards the waterfall. Fate talking in his sleep, "Aki.." Kenji then thinks what Fate and Aki's relation is,"Who is this guy to her... I can only find out once i'm there..." As they continued walking to the waterfall, a man standing between them and the waterfall stared at them with his monocle. "Kuschle.." K said staring at him. Kenji then says,"Who's that..?" "Me..? I am one of the knights. Well I was. Until I betrayed them of course.. And people plan on going to the waterfall I assume?" Kuschle said. Kenji then answers, "Yes.. We do plan on going to the waterfall." "Well it would be quite the problem if I let my sis pass, but the other rest seem quite beat up don't they?" Kuschle said while smirking. When suddenly a man comes walking from behind Kenji saying, "Betrayal is of the highest crimes there can be.." Kuschle responds, "Well, Well.. Look who it is.. Leader of the knights, Damion de Lioncourt."

Kenji angrily says, "You!! Your--" Damion then interrupts saying, "I don't think this is the time to be arguing. Right now the princess is in danger, I'm aware that you all are trying to save her.. Now get moving." Kenji nodded angrily for the princess was more important then a grudge. Kuschle thinking, "If I make a move now.. Damion will surely cut me down.. I'll just have to let them go." As K passed Kuschle, they had eye contact for a second without a word. "Now then.. "Damion said as he pulled he's sword from his sheath slowly. Kuschle finishes Damion's sentance, "Shall we begin?" Kuschle then pulls his sword out of the sheath on his back.



**Waterfall** "Man... I'm mad how Ito and the other guy went else where to fight.. Something about their martial art being 'Sacred' " Sorrow said annoyed. The masked man then replies, "Just be patient.. Your time will come." Kenji and hes group finally makes it to the waterfall. "We.. Finally made it." Kiko said as she entered. "Looks like my turn is up.. Hahaha~" Sorrow said as he saw K. "Up there!!" Kenji yelled out looking at both Sorrow and the mask man.

Sorrow then jumps to the bottom of the waterfall landing on the other side of the water, with his coffin.. "Yo~ Nice to meet you.. All o-- Kiko, Eiji..?" Sorrow said once he landed.Kiko then asks,".. Is that you? Soruiw--" "DON"T ever... call me that or i'll rip that tongue from your mouth!?!! Only... One just one... Can call me that.." Sorrow answered angrily. Kiko then says, "I'm sorry.. She's gone.."Sorrow then smiles saying, "What are you talking about... She's right here.. Ahaha..." Kiko says, "What..?" Sorrow then takes the coffin off his back, and sets the coffin standing straight up. "Ahah.. She's right here.. Right beside me.. She woudn't leave me.." Sorrow said as he opened the coffin, revealing a preserved body with no clothing, holding on to a scythe that has a cross.


"The hell...? I feel sick.." Kenji says, right after Sorrow yells,"SHUTUP... OR I'll CUT YOU INTO BLOODY LITTLE PARTS!" Eiji thinking in his mind, "He coudn't accept her death... Soruiw none of this had to happen, I knew this day would come.. Everything comes to haunt us all.." Sorrow then yells out, "ENOUGH.. You all will be decapitated by me.. Ahhahahha..." K then walks up, pulling out her katana from her sheath, and saying, "I won't let that happen.." Sorrow then takes the scythe from the body and rests it on his shoulder saying,"AHAHAH! You seem fun.. I always wanted to fight a member of the knights.. Especially 'Kari the Knight of Wind', the one who lost her eye for reasons she hasn't told anyone.. and then left the knights soon after." Kenji then replies, "W-what..? K was part of the knights..?" Sorrow then bursts out laughing saying, "Buahahah!! She hasn't told you?! Can a 'friend' like her be so trusthworthy..?!" Eiji then says, "That's enough.." Sorrow then yells back, "EIJI Don't even talk... Where were you when they came to cut us down HUH?!!?!" Eiji then looks away feeling guilty. Then K grins, "This eye..? You want to know what it is...? I'm sorry.. But you won't live long enough to find out." "SHUTUP!!" Sorrow said as he jump towards K.

K versus Sorrow theme - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8mPsaz674I&feature=related

K jumps quickly towards Sorrow. As they meet in mid-air, Sorrow quickly swings vertically with his scythe. K quickly dodges tilts her head to the left dodging the attack, and then she quickly counters by hitting Sorrow in face with the butt of her Katana! *Uah!* Sorrow getting hit in the face falls in the water making a huge splash, as K lands on the rock in the middle of the water. Kiko uncertain, but cheers for K, "Get him K!!" K focusing on the water, when suddenly from behind Sorrow appears out of the water with his scythe swinging towards K's neck. K dodges the attack, by ducking, and spins complete around swinging her Katana to the right of Sorrow. Sorrow get's slashed in the chest area and falls into the water making a splash again. "K is beating him.." Kenji said in relief. Then suddenly the rock which K was standing gets cut in half, as she jumped up in the air. Sorrow came from underwater slashing continuesly. K continues to deflect all the blows coming at her while in mid-air with Sorrow.

Suddenly Sorrow does a heavy swing from the left. K quickly tries to block in mid-air, but the impact was to strong making her get thrown to the right.. Landing on the rocky land across from Kenji and the others. K quickly get's up from the ground, when suddenly Sorrow appears right infront of her swinging his scythe horizontally. K quickly jumps backwards avoiding the attack barely. "..." K stayed quiet. Sorrow standing with the blood and water dripping down from his chest says,"Ahaha.. THIS IS SO MUCH FUN!!" K quickly rushes towards Sorrow thrusting her Katana towards Sorrow's head. Sorrow quickly dashes while tilting his head left, dodges the attack, and once up-close into K's face swings his right fist into her face. *Ah!* K falls to the ground. "K..!! Get UP!" Kenji yelled out. Eiji thinking in his mind,"I have to get uptop that waterfall to get the princess back.. The problem is the man in the mask.."

Sorrow jumps to the air and swings his scythe straight down, K quickly rolls to the right and get's up. "MMmmmmAhahah!!" Sorrow laughs. ".. What's so funny..?" K asks. "The sorrow in your eye.. I can see them.." Sorrow said as he lifted his scythe up in the air. Sorrow's scythe began to glow. A darkgray aura emmitted from his scythe. He then chants," Let the sorrow within your soul.." As he slashed down hitting the ground with his scythe. A grayish aura dispered into the air.. creating a ball of energy. Sorrow then finished his chant, ".. Let it CRY OUT!" The glowing ball flew towards K at an incredible speed. As it reached K, she tried cutting the ball of energy multiple-times. The ball wasn't effected ball the slashes, and soon was absorbed by K's body. "What just happened..?"Kiko asked. Suddenly K dropped her katana yelling, "No..! NO..!!" Many voices were heard around the waterfall. "K.. What's wrong!! Get a hold of yourself!" Kenji yelled from across the small river.

K tried focusing, walking towards her Katana, but seemed as if she was in another time period. Kotaro then slightly wakes up while being on Kenji's back says,".. So it has begun.. his ability.. the sorrow." Sorrow slowly walks to K saying, "Yes.. Feel the the despair.. " He continuesly walked towards her. K finally fell to her knees and put both her hands on her head yelling, "I can't... No.. NO.. Don't let me..!!!" Once he finally reached her, he said, "Your sorrow will end soon..." He stabbed the tip of his scythe into K's right arm.. and slowly tore it apart. "UAHHHH!!" K yelled from the pain. ".. We have to go.. save her..!" Kiko yelled out. "Damn it.. We can't get to the other side.."Kenji thinking in his mind. K's right arm lay on the ground with blood splattered everywhere. As K was still knelt down, Sorrow then slowly used the scythe's tip and stabbed into her stomach. She yelled in agonizing pain and was thrown across the river landing infront of Kiko. "....." Kiko coudn't say a word, Yet Kenji yelled out,"K!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

K layed on the ground without a sign of life.. Kiko runs to K immedietly. Sorrow then starts laughing crazily, "AHAHHA..!!! After.. I'm done.. tearing all of you apart.. I will.. Make the princess.. Feel the same agonizing pain.." Kenji eyes weren't seen as he looked at K. "Hmm..? Are.. you afraid boy..?" Sorrow asked. Kenji spoke quietly and angrily, "... I'm.. going to send you to hell.." He then lifted his eyes showing a crazed blood thirst towards Sorrow. "See if you can.." Sorrow grinning, showing his face covered in blood.

CHAPTER 10 - Shingetsuryuushen


**Away from waterfall in a abandoned village** "Why did you make me follow you..?"Ito asked Kai. Kai answers, "A fight between two 'Shingetsu' students should not be witnessed by others.." Ito then replies, "It doesn't really matter to me.. To me 'Shingetsu' is used to kill others.. Why not let others witness it?" Kai then answers,"We may have the same style, but we have two different points of view.." The village had no signs of life, a battle field for the two. They're words and the wind is the only noises that can be heard throughout the whole village...


Opening theme - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sp8ANDdMP1U&feature=related

The sky was still consumed by the gray clouds. "Which will it be.. the storm or the rain?" Kai asked as they both pulled their left fist behind their waist and lifted their right hand forming a flat palm facing towards eachother. "Fight..!!"Ito yells, right after Kai charges in pulling his right fist for a blow. As Kai reached Ito, he thrusted his right arm aiming for Ito's face. Ito quickly thrusted his left fist into Kai's right fist saying, "Got you..!" Ito then thrusted his right palm towards Kai's face. "No, I've got you." Kai said as he used his left fist to uppercut Ito's right arm countering the attack. Kai quickly kicked straight up using his right leg. Ito hit in the jaw, was sent flying straight in the air. *Guuah!* Kai quickly jumped into the air doing an uppercut straight into Ito's jaw. Ito getting hit in the jaw again was sent flying straight up twice as high!!

In mid-air with Ito, Kai quickly does a tornado kick with his left leg hitting Ito on the side of his face. Ito was sent flying straight into one of the old houses. *Boooofffrrrrr!!** Making a huge crash. "I know you're not done yet.." Kai said as he gently landed to the ground on his feet. From the debris of the house, Ito slowly rises,bleeding from his mouth saying, "Heh.. Should of expected this, knowing you're the top student of the 'Shingetsu' style.." Ito then wipes the blood dripping from his mouth saying, "I'm still standing though..." "But for how long?" Kai asked. "For as long as I want!!!" Ito yelled out as he rushed towards Kai. "..'Shingetsuryuushen soaring fist!!'" Ito yells out with his right arm straight out as if he was being dragged by his fist. "The first technique of the six.." Ito's fist punches straight into Kai's stomach making a huge gust of wind pass behind Kai. *Hmpuah..* Ito then lifts his knee up into Kai's jaw. "Pay back..!!!" Ito screams out doing a back-spin kick in mid-air using his right leg hitting Kai in the face. Kai was sent tumbling in the dirt..

Kai get's up slowly having a ripped up ninja shirt. He then uses his right arm to rip off the shirt. Being shirtless, revealed several scars on his body. Ito also ripped his shirt off. As they both stood staring at eachother, in a moment they suddenly vanished. Once they reappeared they were in the middle of where they were staring eachother off. Already have their fists pulled back they launched their fists straight into eachothers faces!! As they fell backwards right before falling to the ground they vanished again. Reappearing in the same spot with with Kai's leg doing a roundhouse kick from the right and Ito doing a roundhouse kick from the left, hitting eachothers waist. Ito stumbled to the right and Kai stumbled to the left. As they got up they launched their fists into eachothers faces. *Oooah!*Gah..*

Both of them jumped away from eachother. Ito breathing heavily complained, "Fall already.." Kai heavily breathing also replies, "Only if you do first.." Right after they both dashed towards eachother. Once they reached eachother their fists started launching from every direction as if 4 whips were being used. All the whip like punches connected into eachothers body. They finally jumped back revealing many bruises and cuts on eachothers body. Blood dripping from both of them Ito says, " I guess.. *Huff* We just *Huff* have two strong ideals.." "Heh.. That we do.." Kai replied. "Let's bring this fight to end..."Kai says, as Ito agrees and nods. The both of them get into their beginning stance, struggling to stay up. "Technique six.. the final attack... 'Shingetsuryuushen.. Hieen.. zenshirou'" Ito cried out, at the sametime he's left fist began to emmit a burning red flame. Finally Ito dashes foward at an extreme speed, while his fist burning fist left a trail of fire behind him. " 'Shingetsuryuushen.. ZERO!" Kai yelled out as he dashed towards Ito.Once they reached in the middle Ito swings his right fist that emits a flame towards Kai. Once Kai was hit by the fist, a caused a gigantic trail of flames and a huge explosion. *BOOM!!*


**Conclusion of battle**
"That attack.. I never seen it.."
"You said final attack.. Then I delivered the hidden attack.."
Ito laying in the middle of a huge hole asks, "How did... you.." Kai then replys," 'Shingetsuryuushen Zero' The ultimate attack of the Shingetsu style.." "I see... Why didn't you finished me...?" Ito asked as he lay on the ground with wounds everywhere. "Because.. What you said earlier.. was a lie.. you did not use the 'Shingetsu' style to kill.. But to protect.." Kai responded. "Protect..? Heh... I have no one to protect anymore.." Ito said. "You lied again.. You still the one you love and treasure.." Kai replied. "Heh.. The one I love.. Mo--" Ito chuckled and passed out. Kai suffering from the blow earlier also falls over next to Ito saying, "You fell first.. Now I can--" The two lie passed out next to eachother.

**Ito's flashback** After Ito took Momo and ran into the forests. Momo stayed frozen after the incident of seeing both her mother and father killed and dead. Ito giving a piggy back right to Momo says, "I'm sorry.. about what happened.." She continued to stay silent. Ito getting tired from carrying her decided to stop and camp.Ito and Momo sit next to the camp fire in silence. Ito then speaks, "You're fish.. is getting cold.. eat up.." Momo continues to stay silent. Ito thinking to himself, "It's raining.. I wonder.. If the rest are ok.. No.. I'm sure they are.. Still it's to dangerous to go back.." "Ito.." Momo finally speaked. "What is it..?" Ito asked. "Will.. Mommy and Daddy go to heaven..?" She asked. "Can't you tell.. God is crying right now.. the heavy rain.. of course they are."Ito answered. Ito sits next to Momo and wraps his arms around her body to keep her warm. "Ito..?"She called out his name. "Yes..?" Ito questioned. Momo's eye starts to get watery saying, ".. I think the rain is getting in my eyes." Ito then responds,"Then.. let all the rain out on my chest.." Momo nods as she puts her face into Ito's chest. The rain continued to fall.. along with Momo's tears.

Ito thinking,"It's ok to cry.. Momo.." Momo continued to lay onto Ito's chest for the whole night. The rain only continued to pour as they sat and the fire was blown away. A man came from the bushes yelling, "Hey!! Don't stay out in this rain you'll catch a cold!! Come with me.. I'll give you guys shelter." Ito then responds,"Thankyou.."

** Present Waterfall** Kiko trying to help K as she layed on the ground. "Mm... Who will be my next prey.. is it Kiko?" Sorrow questioned. "M-me.." Kiko said in fear. Kenji stays silent, angered, in rage. "What.. boy? Are you in shock or something??" Sorrow asked. Kenji finally speaks in a deep tone, "The one who is going to get ripped into shreds.. is you.." "Interesting.. I guess you'll be my next prey, come over here.. then." Kenji jumps to the rock nearest, and continues jumping on the rock. Until he finally reaches to the side where Sorrow is. "You finally made it over.." Sorrow said. "shut the hell up.." Kenji demanded. "Someones angry.. what's wrong did I kill your bestfriend?"Sorrow mocking Kenji. Kenji responds, "I told you.. to shut the hell up.."

Kenji starts rushing after Sorrow yelling,"Die..!!" Sorrow vanishes only to reappear right infront of Kenji and punches him in the face with his fist. "Gr..." Kenji falls back. "You're going to have to do better then that.." Sorrow said. Kenji get's up slowly wiping the blood from his mouth. "Ahahaha.. Does it hurt?" Sorrow mocking him. "Grah!!!" Kenji rushes towards him again. As Kenji reached Sorrow, Sorrow quickly wacks Kenji straight in the face with the pole-part of his scythe. Kenji was sent flying back. "This is to much for him.. Eiji tell him to ru-- Eiji where are you?!" Kiko asked. Eiji has disappeared. Kenji layed on the ground in pain, bleeding from his forehead. "Ugh.. I can't beat him.." Kenji thinking to himself. "This is disappointing.. I thought you would atleast put up more of a fight, like your busted friend over there." Sorrow said grinning. Kenji slowly get's up and off the ground once more, saying " You.. don't.. scare me.."


**Kuschle and Damion** "Atleast tell me why betray us, Kuschle?" Damion asked. "Damion they're things better left secret until the end.. Don't you think?" Kuschle answered. Damion then says, "Kuschle.. I will bring you to your knees if you do not give me the information I need to know.." "It doesn't matter to me.. The side I am on is neither the knights or the rebels." Kuschle responded. Damion then asks again, "So what is it you are looking for..?" Kuschle answers, "Well.. I guess I can give you a small hint." Kuschle holds up a fragment of a blue-ish crystal, the blue-ish crystal had some-sort of design that looked like a cross. Kuschle finally vanishes in thin-air. "What does it mean..." Damion asked himself.


**Back to waterfall** "Where did Eiji go.." Kiko muttering to herself. Fate wakes up resting on the tree. "W-What.. where am I..?" He asked. Kiko replied," The waterfall.." Fate then sees the masked man up top the waterfall and Aki on the ground. Fate then tries getting up with his wounds. "Where are you going..?! You can't you're to hurt.." Kiko said. "A-Aki.. is right there.."Fate said as he looks at Aki. Kiko stays beside K, as Fate slowly walks into the forest looking for a way up the waterfall. Kotaro laying next to the tree says, "Your friend.. has never fought an actual battle like this has he..?" "No.." Kiko replied. ".. What's your friends name?" Kotaro asked. Kiko then answers, "It's.. Kenji, Kenji Saioji.." Kotaro thinking to himself, "Saioji..? Where have I heard that name before.."

"MmmmHahahah! Are you a fool..? This is a deathwish.." Sorrow said. Kenji rushes towards Sorrow again. "This is getting boring.." Sorrow said right before he slashed Kenji's chest with the other end of his scythe. *Ah..!" Kenji falls back again thinking, "Why can't I beat.. him.. Why can't I be stronger.. Why can't.. I--" Kenji falls to the ground. "Kenji run..!!! That's enough!!" Kiko yelled. "Hmm..? Run..? Ahahaha.. You can't.." Sorrow said. Kenji bleeding from his chest get's back again saying, "I don't... plan on running.." "I'll make you suffer a slow agonizing death.." Sorrow says as he starts walking towards Kenji. "Feel the pain.." Sorrow says continuing to walk towards Kenji. Kenji thinking to himself, ".. What can I do.. I am without a weapon.." Suddenly he remebers K's Katana and starts looking around. "I see.. It, But.. I can't move.. Move damn it.." Kenji thought to himself. Sorrow finally reaching Kenji, picks him up with his hands by the neck. *Uagh..* Kenji thinking,"I have to do something.." Sorrow throws Kenji to the right making him fall on a small rock. "GAH!!" Kenji yelled out in pain.

Kenji coudn't get up anymore. He sees the K's Katana and starts crawling for it. "Oh yeah.. I forgot all about that sword." Sorrow said as he remebered. Sorrow starts walking towards Kenji again. Kenji thinks to himself, "I got to make it... My only hope.." Sorrow reaches the sword first and kicks it even further away. He then walks up to Kenji and steps on his hand. Kenji yells in pain,"AH!!" Sorrow says as he steps on Kenji's hand, " You were already beat up to begin with.. and you think you can beat me?" "S-stop.. Stop it.. please.. I don't want anyone hurt anymore please.. Soruiw." Kiko begged in tears. "What did you call me..?? Did you call me Soruiw...?!" Sorrow angrily said. Sorrow then quickly reappears behind Kiko with his scythe pulled back. Kenji yells out, "No!!" Sorrow then slashes Kiko's back. Blood splatters everywhere across the floor as she falls ontop of K.

Kenji quickly reaches for the sword. He finally grabs the sword and starts getting up again. "... WHY!? She was your friend!!" Kenji yelled out holding the sword. "Friend..? No.. I have no one!! I have no one, but Mimiko.." Sorrow replied. Sorrow vanishes again, reappearing across the river where Kenji is. " I don't care.. about anyone else..!" Sorrow yelled out. "No one.. No one, but.. Mimiko.." He said. "Would Mimiko want you to do this..?!!? You think she would be happy seeing you like this!?" Kenji cried out. "Shutup!! and Die!!" Sorrow yelled back as he rushed towards Kenji with his scythe pulled back to slash. Kenji trying to defend struggled lifting the katana. As Sorrow reached Kenji he swung the scythe. Kenji blocked it with everything he had left, but the force of the strike was to much making the sword be thrown away. Sorrow then pulled back for another slash. Kenji had no more defense. Sorrow slashed vertically at Kenji. *Plooeghtsss* Kenjis blood flew through the air. Making Kenji fall into the river.




Kenji's fall theme



**In Kenji's thoughts as he sinks**

"What just happened..? Does everything end like this...? Not being able to say bye to anyone...? Does my life just end like this..? W-Why.. am I sinking..? My vision.." Kenji thought to himself as his eyes closed slowly, sinking deeper and deeper into the river. "Death.. so cold.. so dark.. Why..?" He asked in his thoughts. " I can't move.. I can only sink.. as if someone is pulling.. me deeper and deeper.. these chains.. let me go.." Kenji thought to himself. "I don't want to die.. So many.. people.. I have to see.. If it is the god of death.. give me a second change.." He continued to sink. An unfamiliar yet warm and gentle voice was heard in his thoughts asked, "Why do you fight..?" Kenji then responds in his thoughts, "Why I fight..?" The voice then says, "Yes.. Do you fight for greed? For people? Do you protect? What is it..?" Kenji then responds, "I-I'm not sure.. I.. forgot the reason.. why am I sinking..?" The voice reponds, "You sink because you are fading away from life.. Not attaching yourself to anything.. So I ask you again why you fight..?" Kenji then starts having dreams.

*Kenji's dreams.* Kenji standing in the middle of a burning house asks,"Father..? Mother..? Where are you..?" Kenji starts wandering around the burning house slowly. As he turned into the hall he sees his father and mother at the end of the burning hallway. "Father! Mother!!" Kenji yells out as he starts rushing towards them. His parents stay silent as he continues to run towards them saying," I'm coming!!" Suddenly his parents get further and further as he tries to reach them. The house starts to fall apart do the the flames. Kenji finally caught up to his parents saying, "Wait.. don't go--" Someone grabs him from behind and suddenly he falls through the wooden floor as if the wooden floor was made of liquid. "No! I want to see my father and mother..!! No..!!" Kenji yelled out as his parents starts catching on fire and burn. The voice of his father can be heard, "It's all your fault.. Everything..!!" Then his mothers voice, "Why did I have a child like you..?! If only you had just died right when you were born.. We woudn't be in this situation.. 'He' is now taken away to become a slave..!" "No.. I didn't.. It's not my fault.." Kenji cried as he sank. His mothers voice, "He sacrifised his freedom for yours.."

"Kenji! Do you want to go get your favorite snack?!" A voice of a boy around his age was heard. Now he was standing in the middle of the street. "You.." Kenji mumbled. "What? Hurry up before it gets to dark!!" The boy said. "Ok.." Kenji said as he smiled and started following the boy. The boy ran past the corner of the building. "Wait! Up!" Kenji yelled out. Once Kenji turned around the corner he could see the boy facing the other way. "Is something wrong..?" Kenji asked. "Yes.. Yes there is.." The boy said as he turned slowly. "What is it..?" Kenji asked. The street around them started becoming distorted. The buildings began to melt, the voices of thousands of other people began to cry. Finally the boy completely turned around revealing his face covered in blood with no eyes says, "You.. your the problem.." Kenji steps back one saying, "No.. I just wanted.. I just wanted to b--" As he took a second step back he fell through the ground, sinking once again.

As he sunk many short clips of his memory showed in his mind. Finally the voice of the gentle and warm came back saying, "Wake up.." Kenji then replies, "Wake up..?" The voice says again, "Wake up.. Kenji.." "Why should I wake up... They wanted me dead.. 'He' wants me dead.." Kenji said. The gentle voice says, "Many people still want you to be alive.. It's not your time.." Suddenly the voices of many familiar people start being heard.
K-"Kenji you idiot.. if you're going to pick up my sword atleast use it properly."
Momo-"Kenji do you think Eiji likes me..?"
Eiji-"Yo~ We still got to see those babes in the hotsprings right?!"
Kiko-"Perverts.. I should use you guys as plugs for more boats"
His uncle-"Go after her.."
Aki-"Wake up Kenji.."




As Kenji finally reached the bottom of the river, he's eyes slightly opened. Thinking, "My will to fight.." Kenji's arm starts to reach for the surface. "I don't want my life to end now.." Kenji continues to raise. "I need to see everyone again.." Finally Kenji reaches the surface slowly raising up from the water. He then get's up from the water standing infront of Sorrow. "W-What..? How did you..?" Sorrow surprised. "Will to fight.." Kenji said as he stood straight up, He then reached to pick up K's Katana once more.







Sorrow smiles saying, "Now this is getting interesting..." Kenji responds,"Come at me.."

CHAPTER 12 - Saioji

**RECAP**As Kenji finally reached the bottom of the river, he's eyes slightly opened. Thinking, "My will to fight.." Kenji's arm starts to reach for the surface. "I don't want my life to end now.." Kenji continues to raise. "I need to see everyone again.." Finally Kenji reaches the surface slowly raising up from the water. He then get's up from the water standing infront of Sorrow. "W-What..? How did you..?" Sorrow surprised. "Will to fight.." Kenji said as he stood straight up, He then reached to pick up K's Katana once more.

Opening Theme - Raion.


Sorrow smiles saying, "Now this is getting interesting..." Kenji responds,"Come at me.." "If you want me to.." Sorrow says as he starts walking closer. While Sorrow was walking towards Kenji, Kotaro decided to help the two that were unconscious. "I don't want to seem like the bad guy leaving two young ladies bleeding to death.." Kotaro said as he picked'em up and rested them against the tree. He then started treating them. As Sorrow got closer he suddenly stopped and jumped back thinking, "He's different.. His aura.. something.." Kenji says, "Is something the matter? If you want me to.. I'll go over there.." Kenji then starts walking foward, as Sorrow get's his scythe ready.


"Hang in there K-Chan.. Kiko.." Kenji mumbled to himself as he got closer. Sorrow then starts running towards Kenji with his scythe pulled back for a strike. "Die..!" He cried out while rushing towards him. Kenji stops and waits for Sorrow to reach him. Finally Sorrow reaches Kenji, he swings his scythe horizontally. Kenji quickly grabs the pole-like part of the scythe with his hand and counters by headbutting him straight in the face. Sorrow gets hit back, as Kenji stands waiting for Sorrow. "I'll get you back for that one.." Sorrow said.

**At top of the waterfall.**
Fate finally reaches the top holding his wounds. "Ugh.. Give the.. princess back.." Fate said. The masked man replies, "I'm afraid I can't do that." Fate then says, "If you won't.. cooperate.. then i'll.." He tries to get his sword, but notices that it's not there. "You came up here without a weapon? Ridiculous." The mask man commented. "I don't.. need a weapon.. to beat a coward such as yourself.. taking hostage of the princess.." Fate said. Another man comes walking from behind Fate saying, "You can barely stand, yet you expect to save her..?" The mask man then says, "So you've came.. Eiji." "Of course.. This is like a reunion or something coudn't miss it for the world." Eiji replied. Eiji then asks, "Where is Momo..?" The masked man then replies, "She's right here." He then steps to the side revealing her from behind him.

Eiji then thinks to himself, "So she hasn't noticed.." "Eiji, This time.. I'll have to kill you if you don't leave.." Momo said. Eiji replies,"Sorry, I have no intention of leaving.." The mask man says, "Then it's settled we are all going to stay." "Now wait.. just give me the princess ba--" Fate was interrupted. Eiji had knocked him out from behind saying, "Sorry.. I can't have you dying now." "Momo after you deal with this man, I will reveal to you the man who killed your father.." The masked man said with a smile. Momo replies, "Eiji.. Prepare yourself." Eiji keeps quiet.

**Kenji and Sorrow**
"I'm going to have to apologize, but it looks like I can't waste time on you.." Sorrow said as he raised his scythe over his head. Kenji thought in his mind, " It's the same technique from before.." Kenji then gets his katana ready, holding it with both hands. Sorrow starts rushing with his scythe raised over his head," Haha..!! You won't escape this time!!" His scythe starts glowing the grayish aura once again. As Sorrow got close he swung his scythe vertically! Kenji quickly jumped back dodging it causing Sorrow to hit the ground. "Hmm.. HA I got you!!" Sorrow said as the grayish aura dispersed into the air creating a ball of energy. The ball of energy quickly flew towards Kenji. "Sorry, but I saw that attack once before.." Kenji said as slashed the ground making the rocks fly in the air hitting the ball of energy. Sorrow thinking to himself,"He's found a way to get passed the attack." Sorrow then starts laughing hysterically. "Finally.. I get to use 'it.' " He said as he lifted his scythe with his right hand putting it over his shoulder. He then lifted his left hand. "Let me show you my true ability.." Sorrow said as his left hand started glowing a grayish aura.

Kenji got his katana ready again thinking, "His true ability? Didn't Kotaro say the samething back when he was fighting.. that knight." Sorrow's left hand raised over his head as he pointed towards the gray clouds. "Let there be sorrow.." He said as the gray aura shot like a beam in the air. Soon after the gray aura began to expand around the two of them. "What is this..?" Kenji said outloud. "This is my true ability.." Sorrow answered. The bottom area of the water was consumed in the gray aura. "Now endless sorrow.. show no mercy..!" Sorrow yelled out. Kenji's feet started to sink in the ground slowly. Until finally he was consumed by the aura..

**In Aura of Sorrow.*
"W-where am I..?" Kenji questioned. "Why your in the Saioji dojo..!" A small boy yelled out. The boy had similar features as Kenji, but was smaller. "Saioji dojo..?" Kenji asked. "Yeah! Saioji dojo! Saioji's Sword style..!" The boy said. Kenji and the boy were the only ones inside the dojo. The front doors of the dojo was opened, being able to see the outside trees and such. "I'm going to learn the way of the Saioji style today!" The boy yelled out in excitement. Kenji replies, "Is that so...?" Kenji then smiles and pats the boy on the head. "But mister.. how come you're so bloody..?" The boy said. "Huh..? Come to think of is.. I can't remeber what happened.. Who am I..?" Kenji said. Kenji then reaches for his head, "Agh.. It hurts.." "Ah..!! Hold on I'll call my grandmother..!" The boy then ran outside of the dojo to look for her mother. Kenji quickly notices that he was holding a katana, "Where did this come from..?! What the hell.." A old woman came walking in the dojo saying, "Oh dear..!" "See I wasn't lying..! He's hurt bad..!" The boy said. "Huh..?" Kenji confused. The old woman quickly grabbed Kenji's hand and took him inside the house.

"Now when you're done washing up you can come join us at dinner." The grandma said. Kenji nods as he enters the bathtub, then the door behind him closes. As Kenji sat in the hot bathtub he thought to himself, "How come I can't remeber anything..? It's all a blur.. Why was I holding that Katana earlier..?" Kenji got out of the bathtub and got dressed. Kenji heads to where the dinner was supposed to be, only to find that not one person was there. "Hmm.. Maybe they went somewhere else." Kenji thought to himself. He started to look around the house and the dojo. Suddenly a cry was let out at the entrance gate of the Saioji place. "What was that..!?" Kenji said as he started running towards the area. Once Kenji got there he could see the little boy holding a sword. The boy cried out, "Let go of my grandmother..!!" An older man was holding the old lady by the neck. The man said, "These are orders of the emperor.. The last remaining of the Saioji who knows the style of 'it' must die." Kenji tried getting closer, but suddenly his legs froze, "Shit..! Come on..!" The old lady then said to the man, "This boy.. does not know anything, of the style of Saioji.. spare him.." The man then says, "Alright.." The man quickly took his blade and stabbed straight into the grandmothers neck making blood splash out from both sides. The man then slowly took his sword out of her neck making the body drop. "Grandma..!!" The boy cried out. "I can't move...!! WHY?!" Kenji cried out. What had happened infront of Kenji disappeared as if it was blown away by the wind.

"Huh?!" Kenji was suddenly in a different place. Infront of a huge mansion. The same boy from earlier sat on the stairs infront of the doorway, he sat as if he looked lifeless. Kenji tried to walk to him, but still coudn't move. Another boy with fading blonde hair came to sat next to the other boy who was lifeless. "My name is Yuji Minakata, what's yours?" The boy then answered quietly, "I'm !@#$ Saioji." His first name was blocked off. "Starting from today we're brothers!!" Yuji said. "B-Brothers..?" Saioji replied. "That's right..! And brothers take care of each other." Yuji said. Saioji smiles softly. Suddenly Kenji started feeling pains in his head, "Headache..!? Ugh.." Saioji and Yuji went inside of the house. Kenji's body moved by itself, he was forced into the house. Two married couples sat at a dinner table calling Saioji and Yuji. "We'll be right there!" Yuji yelled out. Then the two came to sit at the table, and quickly Yuji dugged right into the food. "My our son has quite the appetite." Yuji's father said. As for Kenji he slowly ate. Yuji's parent said to Kenji, "Don't worry eat as much as you like." They smiled. Saioji smiled back and started digging into the food like Yuji was.

The image infront of Kenji disappeared again. This time he was in the same house, but fire spread through out the house. "This is really starting to piss me off.. First I lose my memory and now this?!" Kenji said to himself. The fire blew all over the house. No sign of anybody. "I gotta get out of here.. before i'm burned to ashes." Kenji thought as he tried to avoid the fire. Kenji managed to get to the main hall of the house. As he stood there he saw Saioji at the entrance. On the other end was Yuji's parents. "Don't.. come any closer..! You.. You little monster..!" Yuji's mother and father yelled out. "It's all your fault.. Yuji was taken away from us..!" Saioji replied,"No.. I didn't want this to happen.." Saioji quickly tried to run towards Yuji's parents. But suddenly the ceiling came down on the couple "GAH!!" Saioji heard the screams. Suddenly someone came from behind Saioji and grabbed him before he got to close to the fire. "No..!! I have to save them..!!" Saioji said as he got pulled out of the burning house. As Kenji stood in the middle of the burning house, everything froze around him. As if time stopped.

All around Kenji things broke like glass. Finally everything broke until only white was seen. The only people left were Kenji and the little boy. Kenji looked confused not knowing what to do only stood in one spot. The boy looked like Yuji, he said, "My name is Yuji Minakata.. What's yours?" Kenji answered, "I'm !@#$ Saio-- What the hell..?" A man appeared behind Yuji saying, "You are who you are.. There is no need to repeat yourself all the time.. Son." Kenji replies, " W-What..? F-Father..?" "That's right.. I am Hisagi Saioji." Yuji's image faded away only having Kenji and Hisagi standing on the white platform. "Draw your blade.." Hisagi said. "My blade..? I don't have one..!" Kenji replied. He then asks,"What's going on?! What is this..?" Hisagi stayed quiet as he raised his blade up. "How many times do you have to be awaked? All your friends depend on someone like you?" Hisagi said. "Hold on.. I don't get it..!" Kenji replied. Suddenly Kenji's wounds started opening again.. the blood seeped through the bandaged and then spurted out as if he was slashed again. "Argh!?" Kenji yelled out in pain. "Remeber why you are here.." Hisagi said. "Why.. am i'm here..?" Kenji said as he looked at his right hand. He noticed that he was holding K's Katana. "K! Kiko..!" He started remebering. "I ask once again draw your blade.. and stop being so selfish as to keep falling, while people depend on you. The last time you will be awoken now..!" Hisagi yelled out.

Kenji's eyes opened wide seeing Sorrow above him slashing directly down at him. Kenji quickly swung the katana to deflect Sorrow's scythe. He then swings quickly again. Sorrow quickly dodges the attack by jumping back. "That's not possible.. Not one man I've known has gotten out of it.." Sorrow said shocked. Sorrow then says, "How many times do I have to bring you down, you just keep getting back up.." Kenji replies as he stands back up on his feet, "This time.. The fight really will end." A blood red aura started glowing from Kenji as he raised the Katana and puts it agains't his face. "Hmph.. I'll kill you this time..!!" Sorrow said as his scythe glowed grayish again. Sorrow then started running towards Kenji with his scythe ready to deal the final blow. Kenji's blood started to flow against his arm like a river. The blood from his wounds reached the katana and continued flowing. When suddenly Kenji said,"I won't lose this time.." He slid his hand across the sword. The blood on the sword started to form words the said, "Blood Awakening." As Sorrow reached Kenji he swung his scythe vertically with full strenght. Kenji then dragged his sword across the floor and slashed upwards!! A huge flash happened as they clashed.
"Mimiko.."

The flash soon disappeared showing the scythe cut in half. Right beside the scythe layed Sorrow with a huge slash wound across his body. "I-I lost.." Sorrow said softly as he stared at the gray clouds. Kenji didn't move an inch he's katana still raised upwards. No sound was made, while Kenji dropped the Katana and fell to his knees trying to catch his breath. The aura from Sorrow's scythe was absorbed by himself.

Sorrow - "But it was my fault.. You died.. I should've died.."

Sorrow's eyes finally closed slowly.
Sorrow and Mimiko - "We'll always be together.."
Sorrow smiled as he layed on the ground. Kenji finally get's up again slowly, he starts walking towards the top of the waterfall.


*Top of the waterfall.*
"Eiji..!" Momo yelled out as she threw her needles towards Eiji. Eiji quickly ducked to dodge the oncoming attack. He then says, "Momo you don't have to do this..!" Momo continues to throw her needles as Eiji continues to dodge them. "Oh dearest Eiji.. This will be our farewell." The mask man said. Huff* Huff* Eiji breathing heavily. Momo then throws her needles again, but this time. *Schyettss* ((Blood spurting noise. XD))

CHAPTER 12.9 WHAT?! - Another school day.~

"It's time we took a change on time." said the narrator as he sips his coffee. Everything was silent in Kenji's room. A peaceful morning, the birds were chirping, the children played outside giggling, the trees, and grass were green as ever. He was sound asleep with a t-shirt and boxers on. Suddenly his alarm began to ring off loudly! "Ugh..." Kenji groaned as he turned off the alarm. He went to the quiet life, peaceful, and normal. Another SUDDENLY?!!? **BRKKKRSSSCHLASH* "WAKE UP!!!!!" A man had suddenly kicked the window so it exploded into pieces. He slid into Kenji's room with a bag over his shoulder and a normal school uniform. Kenji slowly woke up and sat up on his bed. He scratched his messy hair and looked over to the man with fiery eyes. The man suddenly jumps onto Kenji's bed and yelled out, "WE"RE GOING TO BE LATE!!!!" He then grabbed Kenji by the neck and threw him towards the bathroom door. In mid-air Kenji thought to himself, "L-late...? OH GOD NO!!!" Suddenly Kenji's feet bursted out flames in mid-air rocketing straight into the bathroom! **CRASH.**

In only a few seconds Kenji came out of the bathroom running towards the front door with his dress-shirt, dress-pants, a school bag, and bread with butter on the tip in his mouth. Wait Wait.. Pause.. How did he get breakfast in the bathroom..? No one will ever know.. Play!! "Come on Ito!! We have to wake up EIJI too..!!!" Kenji yelled out as Ito came running out. "Quick my bike..!" Kenji yelled to Ito. They both got on and started riding off.~

Openiing theme - Tower of Druaga season 1



As they were riding on a bike they were reaching towards Eiji's house which was only a couple houses down. They were riding at full speed.. until someone suddenly came running behind with burning feet yelling, "OOOOOORRRIIIIAAAHHH!!" Ito turned his head and commented, "Is that..?" The man who was running jumped into the air and landed straight on Itos face making a huge explosion. **Boom** Smoke covered the area in which the explosion happened.. When suddenly the smoke vanished quickly as the three on the bike were burning with the same burning aura. "Let's GO!" Ito yelled out. And so they were bursting in flames as they road towards Eiji's house. Once they've gotten there Kenji got off his bike slowly and went to ring the doorbell quietly. An old lady opened the door and asked, "What is it..?" Kenji smiled calmly and said, "Can you tell Eiji we're running late?" The oldlady nodded and closed the door. On the upperhouse window a burning flame emmitted from the room. "Kenji.. get back on the bike!" Ito yelled out. Kenji quickly ran onto the bike. Suddenly from the window Eiji came flying through landing straight on the man who landed on Ito!!

"GO!!!" Eiji yelled out from the top of his lungs. The bike suddenly popped rockets out from the side and blasted off!! "I can see it!!!" Kenji yelled out as the three nodded and continued towards the school. The gate of the school began to close as other students quickly rushed through the doors. "It's closing KENJI" Eiji cried out into Kenji's ear. They rode the bike so fast that the wind seemed to be cutting in half. As they reached the closing gate a small chicken was crossing the road. "NOO!!" The three yelled out as they pointed the bicycle towards the sky and blasted straight into the air. The chicken then crossed the road. A few moments later the bike came crashing down right infront of the gate. The gate mad a *Click* noise as it closed and they layed on the ground. "Guys.." "We know.." A man came walking down the sidewalk with a suit and a ninja mask on saying, "Ah.. I'm late too?" Kenji got up with hope in his eyes saying, "Teacher!! Kai! You can help us!!" The other three got up with sparkle of hope in there eyes. Kai responded, "Uh.. S-sure.." The five of them stood infront of the gate as the gate opened again and a woman with an eye patch stood there waiting..

"K.. The killer!!" Eiji thought to himself. "So all five of you are late.. I didn't expect you to be late either Kai.." Kai then says, "I wasn't late.. I was watching the gate for late students like these ones." The four students eyes widened and sweat began to drop at an incredible speed. "So long students.~" Kai walked into the school. "He left us to.. to.." Kenji coudn't finish his sentence when suddenly K started sliding towards them like a ghost. "The same four.. Give me your names please.."
"Ito.."
"Kenji.."
"Eiji.."
"Soruiw..."

K than took out a bokken from her small pocket. "Wait.. How doe--" Kenji tried to ask, but was interrupted by K, "Shut your mouth.." They nodded quickly as sweat continued to drop. "Go to your classes.." K said softly. "W-what..? You're letting us off the hook..?" Soruiw asked curiously.K responded, "It's the last day of school.. Now get going." The four of them cried with joy as they ran into the school.

**Class 1* * "Goodmorning students first we will be doing rollcall." Kai said with his ninja mask. *Time went by as rollcall went.* Kenji sat staring at the window.. thinking.. thinking... thinking.. thinking.. Thinking.. THINKING!!! He started to doze off, wandering into deep into his thoughts. "What is thinking..? Am I thinking right now..? Why can I change my voice in my thoughts and not my actual voice?? Why does Eiji like putting mayonaise on everything..? Am I talking to myself or thinking to myself..? How come I can only hear my thoughts when I yell inside my brain..? How come 1+1 can't equal 11.. If you put two fingers together it looks like 11 not 2.. Why doesn't Kai put on a full ninja outfit instead of only wearing a ninja mask??" Suddenly a loud slam hit Kenji's desk saying, "Wake up..! And the reason why I don't is because It's not professional." The bell rung.

**Class 2** "Good.. Ah.. whatever." Kai number 2 said. Kenji quickly dozed off into his thoughts again, "What is noodles? What is the defination fo--" A familiar voice a women yelled out to Kenji, "Look out..!!" A wooden bucket came crashing into Kenji's face, yet he continued to sit there with a bucket in his face for a moment. Silence filled the air as if time froze. Suddenly the silence broke with a single tear falling from under Kenji's eyes. He slowly took the bucket from his face and threw it out the window. He quickly got up and smiled brightly, putting his thumb up, and trying to play it off as if it was all okay. The one who threw the bucket was none other than Kiko!! Kiko then says, "Kenji.. Your face.. Was it always like that..?" Kenji nods still trying to play it off. "Well.. I think it looks better than before anyways.." Kiko said as she lifted a mirror up into Kenji's face. Another silence filled the air as Kenji looked in the mirror still smiling and putting his thumbs up. The only difference was that a river of tears came down. The bell rung~

**Class 3** Kenji sat down in his chair with a bag over his head. Next to him was another student called Aki. "Hmm..? Wheres Kenji?" She asked looking at Kenji with the bag over his head. Kenji shook his head, pretending it wasn't him, he thoughts, "I can't let her know it's me!!" "Hmm.. That's to bad.. I was going to ask Kenji something.." Aki said as she put her finger on her bottom-lip, "I was going to ask him.. something very.. very.. very.... very...... important.. that would effect my relationship.." Kenji with the bag over his head got up from the desk and jumped out the window. "Huh..? Where did the bag boy go?" Aki wondered. Suddenly Kenji came back threw the front door of the class with a flawless face, it sparkled with perfect skin. He then sat next to Aki saying, "I heard you had something to ask me?" Kenji's heart pounded loudly. He thought to himself, "This is it.. She's going to ask me out..!" Aki then asked.. she asked.. asked... asked... asked!!!!!! "You think Fate likes me?" A silence filled the air. The bell rang again~

**Kenji's adventure as to why he had a flawless and perfect face.** After Kenji jumped out the window he quickly ran all the way to the airport, got on a plane, went to america, looked for the best surgeon. Once he got there he found the best doctor in the world and asked him to make his face perfect in the next 1 second. "Alright, but this will cost you.. 5 million dollars and in the next year or so you'll have to cut off your *****and give it to me so I can experiment." Incase you were wondering the ***** does not stand for what you think it does and stands for noses. Kenji agreed and the next half a second his face was completed he then flew all the way back to japan.

**After school.** "
Ito - "It's time to go to the beach..!!"
K- "I'm in."
Aki - "Me too."
Fate - "If she's going i'm going.~"
Kenji - "If she's go--- YOU STOLE MY ANSWER."
Eiji - "Woo..!! Beach.~"
Sorrow - "Not going."
Mimiko - "I'm going too! I just bought a new bathing suit so.~"

CHAPTER 13 - Sayonara

*Huff*Huff* "I'm.. almost to the top of the waterfall.." Kenji said to himself as he slowly went up the pathway. He continued to walk slowly up the pathway, though he bled so much, barely able to stand. "Almost.. The-" Kenji stumbled to the ground, but continued to climb up by crawling and dragging his body across the floor leaving a trail of blood. He crawled his way all the way to the top with blood dripping from his mouth. Finally after reaching the top, he was suddenly standing. "W-When did I get up..?" He asked. "When I picked you up.." Kotaro said as Kiko followed behind. Kenji curiously says, ".. How come you're here Kiko..? And what about K..?" "She's okay.. Others came to help her." Kiko responded while holding her bandaged up wound. "Others?" Kenji thought to himself. Kotaro then interrups saying, "Once we get past this tree.. We'll be able to see what's going on.."

As they slowly walked past the tree they saw Aki and Fate laying on the ground. Kenji reacted, " A-Aki..!" Kiko and Kotaro's eyes turned the other way seeing Eiji and Momo. "Eiji..!" Momo yelled out as she threw her needles towards Eiji. Eiji quickly ducked to dodge the oncoming attack. He then says, "Momo you don't have to do this..!" Momo continues to throw her needles as Eiji continues to dodge them. "Oh dearest Eiji.. This will be our farewell." The mask man said. Huff* Huff* Eiji breathing heavily. Momo then throws her needles again, but this time. *Schyettss*

Opening theme - Mai Regret


Eiji had just barely caught the needles with his right hand, but still he bled from the cut on his right hand. Kenji rushed over to Aki, but stumbled onto the ground. Kotaro quickly tried to help Kenji up saying, "Don't be an idiot.. She'll be fine.." Momo continued to throw another round of needles at Eiji, but Eiji used the needle that he caught to deflect them and says, "Is revenge that important to you..? Is it so important that you'd kill a living friend..?" Momo talks back saying, "You were never my friend.. None of you were ever my friends.. You only assumed it." Kiko then says, "Is that true? Momo..?" Momo stayed quiet only staring at Eiji with the intent to kill.

Aki's eyes had slightly opened to see Kenji's face. "K-Kenji..?" She asked softly as if she had woken up from a deep sleep. "Aki.. It's really you.." Kenji said with a glad voice. Aki then says, "Why are you here...?" Kenji responds, "For you.. I came for you.. I wanted to see you.. I wanted to be with you.." Aki smiled as she still layed on the ground. "They should be here soon to help us out." Kotaro said looking over Kenji's shoulder. Kenji looked back at Kotaro and asks, "They? Who are you talking about..?" "The Knights of Europe.." Kotaro responded.

Right after hundreds of arrows came falling from the cloudy sky. They fell towards the masked man and Momo. Momo wondering who can it be, could only deflect and dodge the arrows that rained down. On the other hand the masked man had no probably dodging the arrows that came down, but suddenly another man comes dashing behind the masked man and swinging his gigantic sword. The masked man quickly cartwheeled over the blade, making the gigantic swing miss. The man who swung his blade has slid farther away by being carried by his blade.

Knights Main Theme - Crisis core soundtrack.


Another came falling from the sky and landing on her feet, holding a large bow. The bow wielder had hot pink hair and two daggers attached to the belt. As the arrow stopped dropping the masked man asks, "Who can you two be?" The man with the gigantic sword and white hair says, "You mean us three?" Right after a third person came walking and stopped between the two others saying, "I present to you a fragment of the knights."
"The names Omnis.*smirks*"
"I'm Roxie~ *Giggles.*"
"I am known as Damion de Lioncourt."
Eiji comments, "You guys.. came to help us..?" Omnis responds, "Well.. Seeing as how our objective is the same.. why not?" "Our objective?" Eiji asked curiously. Roxie then says, "To save the princess and bring her back to where she belongs~ Isn't that right Damion?" Damion responds, "R-Right.. Roxie we're in the middle a battle.." "Alrighty~" She answered back. Damion then commands, "You three take care of the masked man, I'll take care of the other person." Eiji points to himself,blinking, and says, "E-Eh..? B-But.. I'm not part of the 'Knights' or.. whatever.." Kiko then yells out to Damion, "Don't kill her..!! She's our friend.." Damion's eye twitched once he heard that and says, "Fine.." He then thought to himself, "When am I going to ever fight for real..?" Eiji continues to point at himself saying, "I-I'm still.. not part of the kni-" But before he could finish Roxie had pounded her fist onto Eiji's head comically and giggled saying, "Just listen to him~" Omnis tries to comment, "I feel your pai-" But was also interrupted by a pounding fist on his head. "You hush too.~" Roxie said as she smiled.
Kotaro stares at Omnis and Eiji thinking to himself, "Well.. Atleast they can fight.."

The mask man interrupts, "I'm sorry for my rudeness, but I have an appointment to get to.." Momo just stares at her new opponent. Kiko wonders, "Where have I heard that voice before.. It's so familiar.. That masked guy." Kenji continued to care for Aki. Kotaro did the same as he went over to Fate's side. Fate starts to wake up seeing Kotaro's face and says, "Y-You.." Kotaro comments, "Yeah It's me.. Got a problem..?" Fate chuckles as he holds his chest in pain. "Let us end this wonderful perfomance." The masked man said. Having 5 needles in each of her hand Momo ran towards Damion and then jumped into the air throwing the needles from both her hands. Damion swings his sheathed sword, making the wind blow them off course. As Momo landed on the ground, Damion quickly rushed towards Momo, and right-hooked her in the stomach. "Guhh.." Momo fell to the ground and past out. Damion then says, "Are you happy 'Kiko' was it? She didn't die.. I merely knocked her unconscious."

Damion picked her up and put her next to Kiko saying, "Take care of your friend." Kiko nodded as she knelt down to care for Momo. Omnis looks at the mask man and says, "Take off that mask.." The masked man replies, "Only if you fulfill that much yourself that my mask will be removed." "You're starting to piss me off.." Omnis said right before he rushed in with his gigantic sword. Roxie yells out, "Wait Omnis!!" But it was to late Omnis had already swung his sword. The masked man kicked towards the sword making it stop on impact. "W-What?" Omnis questioned as he stared at his stopped sword. Quickly the masked man appeared right infront of Omnis face, his fist already under Omni'ses jaw. "Omnis watch out!!" Roxie cried out as she shot an arrow towards the masked man aiming for his head. The masked man quickly vanished before he hit Omnis in the jaw and before the arrow had came. He had gone back to the same spot he stood before saying, "Well it looks like this won't be such a waste of time after all." "His movements.. aren't human-like.." Omnis said. Eiji comments, "Omnis.. He isn't a normal opponent." Damion only watches from the side-lines while the battle is taking place.

"Let me handle this.." Eiji said while he picked up two arrows from the ground one on each hand. The masked man then stares at Eiji saying, "Are you sure..?" Eiji replies, "I already made up my mind to kill you.. You who caused so much pain to others.. Even if what happened many years ago was your excuse. It doesn't give you the right to cause others that same pain.." Kiko thought in her mind, "Many years ago..?" Eiji quickly rushed with two arrows at each hand and began to swing as he got near the masked man. The masked man tilted his head left and right as the arrows got closer each time. Roxie thought, "This is my chance." She than jumps high into the air aiming her bow at the masked man. "Heavens grant me the power to make it rain onto my enemy." She said right before the clouds took her over, from below you coudn't see Roxie. Hundreds of arrows came down once more. Eiji quickly jumped back to avoid the arrows when suddenly Omnis came dashing by him and pulled back his huge blade to swing at the masked man.

"Wait Omnis!! Don't..!" Eiji yelled out as Omnis replied, "Don't worry about me.. *smirking*" Omnis had went under the rain of arrows and before any of them had touched him he swung his blade at the masked man head. The masked man caught by surprised just barely tilted his head backwards dodging the tip, but an arrow from above had struck him straight on the mask. The masked cracked as the arrow was repelled by the mask. The arrows stopped raining, yet Omnis was struck by three of them on his shoulder. Omnis coudn't move do to the damage he took and thought to himself, "I am not.. going to lose twice-in-a-row.. You hear me.. Kuschle?!" Roxie came dropping down yelling to Eiji, "Now it's your chance!! End this fight!!" Eiji nodded as he ran towards the masked man. The mask of the man quickly broke in half and fell into the river, revealing who he was. His head slightly bled from the arrow as he continued to fall backwards. Eiji continued to rush in with his arrows pulled back. Kiko's eyes widened staring at the man who fell slowly.

Kiko continued to be confused and under her breath says, "Lulu..?" She hadn't realize she already started running towards Lulu. Eiji had reached Lulu with his arrow that he held swinging down towards his face. "This is the end.. Lulu.." Eiji said as he continued to swing his arm down. When from out of nowhere Kiko had gotten infront of Eiji's arrowhead. Eiji stopped immedietly before the arrow had pierced through her head. Kiko cried out to Eiji,"Don't..!!" Right after there was a sound of blood spurting *SPHYEATS.* Not one person moved a muscle as if time had frozen. Though you knew that had not stopped because of the flow of blood going into the rushing river. Kiko didn't move she only stared at Eiji with her eyes widened. Eiji smiles softly at Kiko and whispers, "I won't.." Another sound interrupted the frozen time. Sounding as if someone was pulling out his arm from anothers body. *Flvulpts.* "Kiko you really like him don't you?" Eiji said with a soft-smile on his face. Kiko didn't say a single word only staring at Eiji's smile. Eiji looked around him seeing the faces of everyone else, with there lips moving, but no sound had came out.

Eiji turns his attention back to Kiko and behind Kiki stood Lulu with his hand bloody. Eiji lifts his right palm and stares at it saying, "Blood..? Who's is it..?" His vision began to go blurry as he says, "Oh.. It's mine.. Aha.." As Momo's eyes opened slowly she saw Eiji falling backwards with blood coming out of his chest. Momo hadn't realize she had gotten up and struggled to walk towards Eiji. Eiji had fallen into the shallow water with his face up on the surface he continued to smile thinking, "I really am going to die.. aren't I?" Kiko fell to her knees looking down at Eiji. Still no sound was heard by Eiji. He then says, "How come.. No one is making a sound..?"

Eiji's theme - DearBeloved


Eiji looked behind Kiko and saw Lulu facing away. Lulu had walked away with left hand in his pocket and his bloody right hand up in the air as if he was waving bye. Finally Eiji heard a voice calling out for him. "Eiji..!!" Kenji cried out and called for him. "Ahh.. Kenji? I woudn't forget that voice from anywhere.."
"Kenji.."
"Eiji..!!"
"Tell everyone I said bye.."
"Eiji no..."
"Tell everyone I said, Sayonara."
Eiji's eyes closed as he continued to smile. The voice came back, the voice that revived Kenji is now taking Eiji away.
Voice - "Do you have any regrets..?"
Eiji - "Everyone has regrets.."
Voice - "Is there a message you want to give to them?"
Eiji - "Only that I'm so glad to have met everyone on this journey called life.."
Voice - "Than this is your farewell.."
Eiji - "One more thing.. Before you take me.. Can you tell them to watch out for the rain?"
Voice - "Rain..?"
Eiji - "Yeah.. Rain.."

Eiji did not move from the shallow water. The sound of everyone around him came back, and so he was able to hear the voice of everyone before finally being able to rest for eternity. Soon after the rain came pouring down. Heavy rain came pouring as the blood was washed away from his body. The battle had ended, not one person continued to fight. Lulu had already left and walked away. Aki the princess of snow was saved.

CHAPTER 14 Final - Rain

Kenji wakes up to the sound of someone calling him from out of the window. "Yo!! Kenji wake up!!" Kenji responds, "Huh..? Who is it?" "It's time for breakfast man!!" Kenji wakes up and looks down, he sees Eiji under a sakura tree. Eiji waves and smiles, Kenji says, "I'll be there in a second!" Kenji rushes down the steps of the Chib inn and goes to meet up with Eiji. "Hey let's go get some Ramen!" Eiji suggested. Kenji says, "It's all on you then!" Eiji says back, "Pff.. Will see about that.. Now let's go!!" Kenji walks with Eiji to the nearest Ramen place. They both walk in and the ramen owner welcomes them in and gets their seats prepared. Kenji asks, "What do you want Eiji?" Eiji responds, "Well.. To tell you the truth I already ate~ So.. You can eat whatever." The owner asks Kenji what he wants and Kenji tells him that he wants beef ramen. Kenji starts eating and asks Eiji, "You sure..? This is some really, Really good stuff that you're missing out on man." "Meh.. Why not give me some, Kenji." Eiji says. "No way! Get your own!!" Kenji yells. Eiji responds, "Fine.. Sheesh order for me I'm going to the bathroom." Kenji nods and tells the owner of the ramen shop for another bowl or ramen.

Once Eiji got back he started to eat the ramen with Kenji and he asked, "Do you remeber the first time we met?" Kenji nodded and says," You saved my life from those ronins." "Are you still mad that.. You coudn't save your people, and your uncle?" Eiji asked. Kenji replies, "Well.. I was at the time, but now that I think of it.. I would have died along with them.. So thankyou." "Thankyou?" Eiji questioned. Kenji answers, "Yeah, I never got the chance to thankyou.. So there" Eiji smiles and gets up from his seat. Kenji asks, "Where are you going?" "Did you forget? The party!! Everyone is waiting K, Kiko, Momo, Aki, Everyone!" Eiji answered. Kenji then says, "Oh right at the palace! For saving the princess!" Without another word Eiji starts running, while Kenji is hurrying in paying for the food crying out, "Wait up Eiji!!! This was supposed to be your bill!!" Eiji yells back, "Just hurry up!!"

Eiji starts to slow down and lets Kenji catch up. Kenji mocks, "You gettin tired?" Eiji chuckles and smiles saying, "Don't beat yourself up, Kenji." Kenji then says, "Huh?" Eiji starts to get faster again leaving Kenji behind. "Hey wait up!!" Kenji said running with all his might. Still Kenji was not fast enough to catch up to Eiji and started to get tired. Only a few blocks away from the gate Eiji turns his head back to face Kenji and smiles as he waves bye. Eiji then reaches the gate and turns into the corner.

Kenji finally reaches the gate and also turns, but sees Kiko standing by herself. Her hair covered her eyes. Kenji asks, "Where did Eiji go? And when do we start the party?!" Kiko continued to have her eyes covered by her bangs. Tears ran down her cheeks as she says, "I-I.. Eiji.." Kenji asks, "Kiko what's wrong..? Did Eiji make you cry??" Suddenly Kiko ran towards Kenji and put her face into his chest. Kenji tried asking again,"Ehh.. What's wrong Ki-" But suddenly tears started running down his cheeks also. "I'm.. crying?" Kenji questioned. Kenji asks Kiko, "Wheres.. Eiji..?" K than comes walking in all black-clothing, letting her hair flow instead of the pony-tail, and says, "Eiji's dead.." Kenji then responds, "..That isn't what I asked.. I asked where Eiji was..? The party.." Kiko continued to cry in his chest. K looks away with a saddened look. "Wheres Eiji..?" Kenji asked again.
"Eiji's.. Gone.."

Opening theme - Only human by K


"G-Gone..?" Kenji questioned as he kept trying to smile, but it would only turn into a frown while his tears came down. K continued to look away saying, "The rain hasn't stopped." Kenji questions, "T-The rain..?" Suddenly Kenji was soaking wet and the rain appeared out of nowhere, as if it never existed. "The party..?" Kenji asked. K answers, "This is a funeral, for the guards and Eiji.." All Kenji say was, "Oh.." He then nodded and turned around saying, "Well.. I'll go look for Eiji now.. Cause we're supposed to go to a party together.." Kiko with tears says, "Kenji.. Eiji is-" K interrupts while shaking her and says, "Kiko.." Kenji started to walk away, but stumbled many times and kept getting up and slipping in the muddy ground as the rain kept pouring.

As Kenji turned around another corner of the palace building he bumps into Aki. "Ah.. Aki you're here for the party too?" Kenji asked still trying to smile. Aki doesn't respond and stays silent. "Aki.. I was looking everywhere for you.. but now i'm looking for my friend.. He's name is Eiji do you know where he is..?" Aki tries to say something, but coudn't get the words out. Kenji then gets closer to Aki and says, "You like me don't you..? Kiss me.. " Kenji tries to lock lips with Aki, but Aki quickly pushes Kenji away and turns away and hugs Fate that was a few steps. "K-Kenji.. I'm sorry.." She said, while Fate only stares and feels pity for Kenji. Kenji falls onto the muddy ground and puts his hands on his face. He starts laughing histeracly, "Hahaha..!! HAHhaha.. ha.." He then stops and starts crying as his hands are covering his face. Fate and Aki knew they coudn't anything.. Only to feel sorry for him.

Kenji then got up,dragging his legs across the muddy ground, and went into palace into his room. He slid the door open and went in, he then closed it, and locked himself in the room. Everyone showed up to the funeral for Eiji and the guards protecting Aki at the time of the attack, but the only one who didn't show up was Kenji. 'Everyone' Meaning only K and Kiko had shown up, the other people are the relatives of the guards or friends of the guards. Soon after the funeral K and Kiko went to go see Kenji in his room. Right before Kiko knocked on the door, Kenji had already slid it open asking, "What is it.. Kiko?" "Kenji.. can we talk to you.." Kiko asked. Kenji then slid the door fully open letting them in. The three of them sat down and started talking. "You know you missed, Eiji's funeral.." K said. Kenji responds, "I know." Kiko feeling guilty suddenly says, "Kenji.. It was all my fault..! My fault he died..! If only I hadn't gotten in his way.. He woudn't have.." There was a pause, but then Kenji responded, "It is.. It's your fault he died.. You fault..!" Kenji started to yell while Kiko's tears came down again. Kenji came blaming Kiko for his death when suddenly K got up and smacked Kenji acrossed the face saying, "That's enough Kenji! It isn't anyones fault,but his own.. You out of everyone should know that.. You should know what kind of person Eiji was.." Kenji cheeks were red as he keep staring away. K looks at Kenji and realizes that he really isn't blaming anyone.. Anyone but himself. Kenji get's up and says, "I'm going out.." Kenji slides the door open and quietly slides it closed.

End of Chapter 14 part 1

Chapter 14 Rain part 2

Kenji went to the crowded streets of Kyoto alone. The rain heavily continued to pour while he walked with his head down. While walking past the many people on the streets a boy comes running and bumps into him really hard in the stomach. "Ow..!!!" The boy cried out as he rubbed his head. "Watch where you're going!" The boy said as he ran away. A man came forth this man was covered in worn out bandages and his eyes covered with black-circle glasses. The bandaged man says, "I apologize for his behaviour. Please let me treat you out, because he just stole your wallet.." Kenji reaches for his pocket noticing that his wallet was gone, but doesn't react.

In moments time Kenji was sitting at a table with the bandaged man and the boy at a popular ramen restaurant. Kenji says, "You really didn't have to.." The boy comments, "Yeah.. we really didn't.." The bandaged man replies, "It's not a problem." He then says, "Let me introduce myself my name is Ra.. Benkei." "Oh.. I'm Kenji Saioji.." Kenji replied. Ra then says, "Saioji? Hmm.. A peculiar name.. Well it's a pleasure to meet you." Ra then focuses on the boy and says, "Introduce yourself aswell." The boy looked at him angrily and then replies, "Fine.. Ikei Ushin." Ra then says, "There now that we've all introdu-" But was interrupted by a huge explosion that came from the palace. Kenji wondering, "What was that..?" Ra then says, "I'm sorry.. I think it's our time to leave. Goodbye Kenji.. For now." The two leave immediately. Kenji runs after them yelling out, "W-Wait..!" As Kenji continues to follow them, Fire was blazing out of the palace's prison. Kenji ignoring it for some reasons had an attachment to Ra, but suddenly another man came from behind Kenji with his hoodover his head and whispers in Kenji's ear, "Yo.. Kenji." The hooded man then turns extremely quickly hitting Kenji in the stomach with the hilt of his sheathed sword. Slowly Kenji fell with a clear view of the hooded man and says, "Y-Yuj-" Kenji finally fell to the ground passing out.

Continued story theme - R2 lelouch rebellion


**At the palace** A guard yells out, "The following has escaped Sorrow, Hideaki Ito, Momo Gehenna, Kotaro, Makoto Kuijen, and Rem Agina. Do not let them out of Kyoto!!" Omnis in the back of all the guards thought, "I knew it wasn't over.. Kuschle.. I'll find you.." Damion comes and lays a hand on Omnis's shoulder saying, "Get ready we're heading out. Lelouke and several others following him have been spotted." Roxie closely behind nods with a smile. Omnis then smiles saying, "Kay~"

**Deep in the forest away from the palace** "I have to find.. him.. I must continue my revenge.." Momo said as she continued to run with a blanket covering ontop of her so that no one can see her. She continued to run deeper until she sees a man standing out of the trees. ".. If he sees me.." She gets her needles out ready to throw them. She continues to edge closer hoping for a surprise attack. Suddenly the man spoke, "Momo.." He then turned revealing who he was. "Ito..!" Momo shocked in finding him in the forest.

** Infront of the palace surrounded by many guards** "Mm.. Ahahaha.. I hope this is as fun as fighting you Kenji.. especially K.." Sorrow said with a smirk on his face. The guards then yell out, "Attack!!" Sorrow then leaps in the air slashing agaisnt one of the guards with his barehands and jumping off of him and into another. A guard already on the ground says quietly, "He didn't.. Kill any of us..?" Sorrow replies, "Cause I don't have my scythe.. You got lucky." As he walks away from the fiery palace.

** Deep in the forest sitting near a river ** "Fate.. It ended as a draw.." Kotaro said as he chuckled. He then falls backwards onto the ground and stares into the rainy sky. "I want to know what made you stronger.. The reason.." Kotaro said. He then raises his right hand and stares saying, "I can't believe i've forgotten my reason for fighting until now.." He then stretches and sleeps.

** In the bamboo forest ** "I heard the leader of the greatest Ronin gang has escaped.." One of the guard said. "You mean the one that massacred a whole village on that one island near Japan?" The other other said. Then the guard comments, "Yeah.. But I can't remeber his name.. what do you think it was?" The guard looked at the other guard waiting for a reply, but suddenly his head slid-off. "W-ah.." The guard in shock. "Refering to me..? My name is.. Makoto Kuijen.. Now die." A loud scream came from within the forest. Moments later a girl comes running to meet Makoto. Makoto turns and says, "Finally Rem.. You made it." She then nods holding onto a necklace. Makoto then stares up on the bamboo tree and looks at the dismembered body of the guard.

** An unknown cave ** "Glad you can all make it.. Ikei, Lelouke, Ra.. We will begin our revenge agaisnt all of Japan.." The man covered in the darkness of the cave said. Ikei then yells out, "Woo-Hoo!!" Lelouke says, "Preparations are now finished. After the kidnapping of the princess i'm sure I gave you all enought time to finish the real plan." Ra then nods saying, "That divergen helped us gain time. Oh.. And Yuji I think I saw the one you were referring to.." From out of the shadows Yuji came out saying, "Kenji.. I wonder how you're doing.."

** Under a Sakura tree, Under the rain.** Kenji wakes up holding his stomach wondering, "Where am I..?" "Stop wondering where you are everytime and enjoy the view won't ya?" Eiji said with a smile. Kenji then replies as he gets up, "Your right.. Eheh.." The rain continued to pour, but there was a difference. Eiji says as he stares out from the cliff, "I told you not to beat yourself up didn't I?" Kenji nods and says, "You did.. But I-I just coudn't accept your death.." Eiji chuckles and says, "Ahh it's fine~ You can have a fun journey without me." Kenji then asks, "Journey..?" Eiji smiles and says, "Don't tell me you didn't notice?" Kenji replies, "Oh.. Yuji.. And Lulu is still out there huh..?" Eiji nods and points his finger behind Kenji saying, "Look it's your friends. Though they are still a bit faraway.. You know Kenji.." Eiji then looks up at the rainy sky with one eye closed, smiling, "Rain isn't all that bad.. It can of course be a sign of sorrow, but I like the other answer better." Kenji asks, "Other answer..?"

From behind a familiar yells out, "Kenji!!" Kenji turns around seeing Kiko yelling out, K following, Fate, and Aki. "The other view of rain huh..? I'll see you later Eiji." Kenji looking at everyone with a gentle smile. Suddenly the wind blew as the rain got lighter. Everyone finally catching up to Kenji. Kiko says, "Kenji.. I'm so--" Kenji interrupts and says, "There isn't one thing you should be sorry about Kiko. I'm sorry.. For being such a downer." Kiko quickly rushes and gives Kenji a friendly hug. Kenji then looks at Aki and says, "Sorry about earlier.." Aki smiles and says, "It's fine.. But are you ready to go?" Kenji says, "Go..?" Fate comments, "What..? They didn't tell you we're going to.. Aki and I." Kenji surprised, but smiling and says,"Alright, but are you coming along K?" K answers, "Not this time Kenji.. Alot of political events are happening and they asked me to stay around." Kenji replies, "That's to bad.. But you're always welcome to come along." K nodded and seemed to be carrying something wrapped with her one-arm and says, "Kenji this is for you." K throws the wrapped object to Kenji. Kenji quickly unwraps it revealing a bokken. "A wooden sword?" Kenji asked. K replies, "Don't complain." Kenji chuckles and says, "I wasn't.. Just thinking is all." Kiko then says, "Look at it." Kenji notices the engraved words on the handle of the bokken that says 'Awakening' and the blade of the bokken saying 'Live,Fight' After he rewraps it and thanks K for the gift.

"I guess this is goodby for now, K." Kenji said. K smiles and says, "I'll catch up, don't worry. Not get going." Kenji nods and says, "Time for another journey." Aki nods smiling. Fate grabs some of the bags of clothing from the ground and says, "It'll be a while till we get back." Kiko thought in her mind, "Lulu.. I need answers from you.." K waves bye to Kenji, Kiko, Fate, and Aki. As Kenji thought in his mind, "Eiji.. This rain.. It's the cleansing and the start of a new beginning that's the other answer right..?" Sunlight shined through the cloud and rained lightly.
