Chapter1: Runaway!

It was raining as we were galloping on my horse. The mud was splashing up at every step the horse takes. The wind was thrashing at us as we galloped through the dirt path way through the boarder of or old home land Kai.
I could hear the stomps of the other horses that were coming closer and closer. Just those made me tighten my hold on my brother's jacket. The previous wounds we had are opening and our cloths are now red. Well I guess it would make sense for me to tell you why we were here right now? Well it's best I start from the beginning.

Everything started the day Prince Makotochi became lord of Kai. Since the death of my lord takeda Shingen he became the ruler of the land of Kai and changed everything. Our once peaceful land was now filled with grief and fear. He ruled the land with an iron fist. The one sign of friendship between any of the other nations was now gone and any land that prince Makotochi dislikes was put to war against.

My older brother Sanada Nobuyuki and I Sanada Yukimura were put up against it. We just couldn't stand it anymore so we did the only thing we could do to escape. Run. Yes we ran away from the only home we ever knew and went up against everything. Our friends. Our home. And our so called 'family'. We both knew the consequence of doing this and we both knew if we get caught up by the soldiers of Kai.

Death.

I looked back to see if they were catching up. Ha. It wouldn't really matter, I could already hear the mad galloping of the horses and I bet Nobuyuki could hear it to.

"Yuki" Nobuyuki said. His voice sounded raspy but…. It also sounded like he was holding back tears. Why? "Hn?" I said as a reply I couldn't talk too much either.

"Yuki I need you to take the reins as soon as we reach the border near Oshu" his voice sounded heavy but I didn't take any notice. Because the true meaning of his words were too shocking. 'Yuki in need you to take the reins of the horse and run away'. That was what he was truly saying. "What!? But I can't leave you nii-san! "I shouted. No way was I gonna leave. I just couldn't.

"Please yukimura we have no choice" he said calmly but I could still hear the strain in his voice. "But why!?" I said again. I already knew the outcome of this. "Yuki we have no choice the soldiers are catching up and if I distract them while you get away they won't be able to get you". His voice was calming but I could see he was trying hard to not cry. "Bu-" "yuki please" I started but he cut me off.

There was no point in trying to persuade him. When he makes up his mind he goes through with it. "Okay…..but promise me you will be okay" I looked ahead letting my tears blur my vision but not letting them fall. "I promise" hesitation. There was hesitation in his voice just now.

We soon reached the clearing and the horses behind us were close. We stopped and he hopped off. He looked up at me with a small smile on his face.

"Good luck….and be safe Kay" he said. He was trying to not show any weakness right now. "You to" I nodded. Then I took off on the horse galloping away. As I was riding on the horse and getting further and further away I couldn't hold back the tears that ran down my cold cheeks. "Goodbye".

That…that sounded just like my nii-san! I looked back to see nothing but a dirt road. But…but something felt off. I put my horse in halt and looked back carefully. No sound came from that direction. But if that means there's no sound that means nii-san must have won right?! I quickly turned around and went galloping on the horse. As we got closer I could hear no sounds only the patter of the rain. And the upcoming thunder storm.

We were so close to reaching were nii-san is just a bit further. Once we reached the clearing all I saw was grey and red. There were dead bodies on the ground of the soldiers. The ground was covered in red splotches were the corpses were but that wasn't the problem.

I couldn't find nii-san anywhere.

I looked around and called his name couple of times but I couldn't find him anywhere. The rain was coming down hard and that was making it harder to see then it already was. Then I saw him. Nii-san. He was on the ground with lots and lots of blood surrounding him. Despite the aching in my legs I quickly ran over to him.

"Nii-san!" I called his name as I kneeled down to him. I put an arm around his back and used the other one to hold his face so that he was looking at me. "Nnnhngg…." Groaning. That can't be a good sign right? "Nii-san it me yukimura…..can you hear me?" I said in a quiet voice. I couldn't let him know I was crying. He slowly opened his eyes. The only thing wrong was that his eyes looked blurred and darker.

"Yu….ki?" his voice was raspy and weak. "Yeah it's me nii-san" my voice probably doesn't sound any better than his at the moment. "Yuki…..I told you…..not to come" his voice getting weaker. "I'm sorry but I couldn't just abandon you…. See what happened, you're hurt nii-san" sure I was kinda angry at him for leaving but I just couldn't bring myself to hate him.

"Yuki" his voice was soft but so very weak. "Yeah I'm right here nii-san…..I...I'm not gonna leave you okay?" he reached a hand up to me and put it on my cheek. He was very cold the only thing warm would be the blood that was on his hand was now on my face. "Yuki….promise me…nng…what….ever you do….always….remember….I will always….love you….yu...ki" his eyes became blurry and the hand on my cheek would have slipped off if not my hand was on it. His body went limp and his breathing was very faint. "nii-san?" no response "Nii-san?" still no response. I got his hand and checked his pulse. There was none. My tears I had been holding back now came back full force.

I held his dead body close as I cried. "This…all of this was my fault…..I was the one to blame….if we never ran away…..you … you wouldn't be dead now! If…..if only we could be reborn then…..I'd want to be you're little brother again…..wouldn't…wouldn't that be nice…..nii-san?" by now the rain was pouring down, the mud was soaking into our cloths mixing in with the blood that was stained on.

I don't know how long I sat there in the rain with the dead body of my older brother. But I really didn't care. Suddenly I could hear the stomping of the ground. It sounds like horses. Soon the horses stoped at the field and a glint caught my eye but I didn't care because I already know who it is.

I start to feel drowsy and the wounds I got from my previous battle are coming back full blast. My vision is going blurry and my body felt heavy. I felt my body slip from under me and I fell down into the mud on top of my brother's chest.

I could hear footsteps coming closer and closer as my eyes were half way closed. Then I felt my body being picked up and a hand behind my head. I then heard someone calling my name….this voice…..it sounds familiar…I'm sure I've heard this voice from before.

Then before I could think any more about it my entire world went black.

"YUKIMURA!"
