I sadly do not own The Dynasty. All things Ronin Warriors copyright Sunrise Animation.
And no, before you start reading, this is NOT a romance, got that? x.x This is going to be a shorter story, and I'm going to try to move it along quickly. So...here ya go, pleae R&R
It was midmorning in Tokyo. Dais had decided to go out for a bite to eat, leaving Sekhmet, Cale, and Kayura behind. The Warlord of Illusion commonly went out on these little excursions, a way for him to relax and think. Since Talpa's defeat, things have been up and down. The spats between Sekhmet and Cale, Kayura whacking them with the staff to knock it off, the whacks not always working, and the two warlords often running through the castle while throwing random items at each other often commenced.
Serenity. Dais loved peace and quiet, and found himself enjoying some of the finer things in life. In the markets he often bartered and bought nice,though often unnecessary, items before returning home. Bad and good memories, the Nether Realm is still home.Dais found himself a nice little hole-in-the-wall cafe on one of the quieter streets and took his place in the short line to waiting to order.
He was nearly at the counter when a woman ran in and stopped behind him, panting.
"In a bit of a hurry?" Dais tilted his head. Normally he wasn't the type for conversations, and found himself wondering why he had even asked. It's wasn't any of his concern.
"Not really." The woman was slender, despite the fact the loose shirt and jeans she wore were a size or two too large. Her eyes were bright green and her rich royal purple hair was pulled back and tied up into a bun. She then shrugged and focused her eyes on the menu board. Dais was about to shrug as well and go about his business before something in his head told him he should get to know her.
"Come here often?" Lame line, yes he knew. However Dais' intentions concerning that line was not for what it was commonly used for.
"Once in a while." She kept her eyes on the board.
"Any thing you'd recommend? I honestly have not been here before." He added just enough confusion in his voice to make it sound believable. It was true, Dais had never been to this cafe, it was the confusion that was a lie. He was far too patient to be confused.
"Can't go wrong with bagels by any means. Good coconut creme donuts as well. Vanilla cappuccino. Fair biscuits."The woman seemed insistent upon being left alone, answering only as much was needed.
"Thank you." It was now his turn in line and so he heeded her words and ordered a coconut creme donut, a bagel and cream cheese, and a vanilla cappuccino. Leave the biscuits for later. Once his order was received he took his time getting napkins and some extra cream(which was a tasty treat for both him and Cale) for later. The woman hesitated getting napkins once she got her order, trying to avoid Dais. However she gave in and came up on his left side, clearly hating to wait any longer.
"What's your name?" Dais kept his tone calm and relaxed. He wasn't trying to impress, rather he was trying his best not to sound like what she would and could perceive as a typical male who was interested in her.
"Kiseki." She grabbed some napkins, a fork, a straw and turned.
"Would it be possible for you to stay and chat?"
"No." With that she made for the door.
Kiseki...miracle, eh? Wonder why she's so flighty. She's not shy...more nervous. Sitting down, Dais ate his breakfast and sipped his cappuccino. I don't know for sure, but it seems like there's something bothering her badly...in a very unhealthy manner. Try as he might, his thoughts would not let Kiseki and her odd behavior out of his mind. His mind was made up for him, he had to get to the bottom of it.
