Chapter 1
Jin the Crismonblade?
During the battle between Hazama and Ragna, the injured Jin had slowly moved towards the scene. His body was still in pain from his battle with Tsubaki, but he knew that Hazama had to be stopped. When all failed it seems that someone else was fighting as well, Hakumen was fighting the dreaded Terumi. The battle wasn't going his way, but slowly it changed for the hero and soon lead to the final blow being dealt. Time stopper his ultimate move was about to strike, but something didn't feel right as Terumi had used the last of his strength to summon his snake and pulled Jin over to him. Hakumen couldn't stop his attack as the blow strike down onto Terumi and took away all his time, but caught in the crossfire was Jin. His time had started to alter it and then on the brink of an eye. Everything was gone, darkness clouded over his mind and slowly he fell down into what felt like an endless abyss.
…
Nothing was clear anymore, what did it all mean and what was going to happen to me. It felt like days, before something had finally happened. A whirlpool of energy had encircled the body and created a portal of darkness. Pulling the body through the hole like it was nothing, soon the light had reappeared in full blast. It was blinding and odd, as it had been a long time since my body felt it. What was wrong with everything now, could it be something had changed or was it that I was dead now.
It wasn't long before I could feel snow lightly hitting my body, the refreshing feeling was welcoming but where did it come from? Finally for the first time in what felt like years, I opened my eyes and found myself in some alley way. My clothing filled with snow from being on the floor the entire time, but how did I get here? Deciding that the first thing to do, was to get up from the floor and find out what town this was.
Everything felt weird about my body, it felt a little more sluggish. Walking over to the edge of the alley way, it looked like I was in Akitsu-ko. The strange thing was, how did I even get here in the first place? I was nowhere near this town, why would I simply appear here out of the blue. The streets were filled with people, each having chats or buying from vendors. Maybe someone could help me understand, so I decided on walking out into the open.
The reaction was odd, most of the people had paled or stopped what they were doing. They stared at me, like a deer in front of headlights. I didn't care for them, only walking over to the closest vendor and looking for the shop keeper. When I approached him, he only looked surprised and waited till I reached him.
"Can yo…."
"Please don't kill me! You can have all the money I have."
"I don't want your money."
"Then take my wife! Just don't kill me!"
I stared at him like he was crazy, but it seems that he was filled with fear for some reason. What the hell is going on here!?
"Jin the crimsonblade!"
What the hell did they just call me!
"Who the hell are you talking about!? My name is Jin Kisaragi!"
"All lies, run for your lives!"
Many of the citizens had started to leave the area, the vendor included as nothing seemed to be the same. I had come to this town before, no one had ever yelled or screamed in terror. Plus the name, what was that about? To make fun of me, or did someone put them up to such stupid matters. I could believe it, maybe I should go look around for someone I know.
Yet, another disturbing power had approached me from behind. This feeling was much stronger, it was very familiar and when I turned around it was someone with a hooded cloak. I didn't really care for the person, but something had caused me to look at the figure shocked. Whoever it was had Yukianesa strapped to her hip, I looked around for my blade but it was gone.
"You Bastard! Give me back my sword!"
The figure only snickered at the comment as it moved closer. Its hand on the hilt of the blade, ready to draw it for the first strike. It was like staring into a mirror, similar movements, but it was different from my own style.
"Brother, you don't have to be so rude! Everyone thought you died in the raid, but here you are. IT'S SO WONDERFUL THAT YOU ARE STILL ALIVE!"
I felt a many emotions pass through me as a voice I knew very much, had come back to haunt me. She removed her cloak as her long blue hair in a ponytail was let loose. It was Saya, how could this even be possible? Why does it have to be her…. It had to be a trick?
"Raid, what the hell are you talking about? You're not even real, this is all a trick and I'm not falling for it."
Saya only stared at me, while she smiled happily at me with her hand clutching Yukianesa. She approached quickly with her blade, aiming to cut off my head in one go. I felt her aura grow stronger, my body didn't react like I wanted it to. Instead of dodging the entire swing, part of her blade had slashed across my right eye. Blood spattered along the floor, the pain was unbearable and I knew that this was real.
I kneeled down, covering my bleeding eye as she stared down at me.
"What's wrong brother! A little pain brings you down? Get up and fight me!"
She yelled at me, was I like this? The power of order had changed me… yet, why the hell was I getting attacked by my own blade by Saya.
"FINE, IF YOU WANT TO DIE! THAN GO TO HELL!"
I felt my body go numb, waiting for the final blow to be struck but it never came. After a few seconds, I looked up to see Nirvana, blocking the blade and pushing Saya away from me. I sighed in relief, as Carl walked over to my side.
"Carl, it's great to see you."
Instead of his calm expression, he was frowning at me. His clothing was different from before, it was red and purple. His glasses looked different, they were more mechanical and he is studying me.
"It seems you have become more interesting, a different aura from before is around you. You will make an even better test subject."
I paled at his words, this wasn't Carl…. He wasn't like this.
"What the hell happened to you, Carl?"
He looked abit shocked at my words, but when back to his usual demeanor. The damn doll turned around ready to grab me, when saya had hit her with her blade.
"CARL! DON'T STAND IN THE WAY OF MY BROTHER!"
They focused on each other, leaving me time to look around for a way out of here. To my convenience there was a pit hole that lead to the sewers, dashing off to the side. I opened the hole and jumped down into the darkness. Something was really wrong here, why were they different and saya not taken away.
"Damn it!"
The pain, the blood and why the hell was my body acting different. Could it be that I never used my blade in this world? What raid were they talking about? This town, it was the first town that the grim reaper had destroyed a NOL base.
"Ragna? Where the hell are you?"
Traveling down the sewers, it was nothing but dead ends. I had no knowledge of this system, maybe if I go the other way...
"BROTHER! COME OUT, COME OUT, WHEREVER YOU ARE!"
A loud explosion followed by her sickening words chimed throughout the sewers. It had to be my trail of blood, it would only be a matter of time before she caught up. Stopping in one place would be my death wish, so I kept going never looking back.
After a few dead ends and turns, I ended up at the end of the sewer system. The final path was a waterfall that lead down into drainage pipe, why was it never easy to escape from someone. It was only a matter of time before Saya would find me. So either die to her, or jump to an unknown fate because I had no idea where the pipe went.
I didn't like either idea, but when the sound of foots steps getting closer to my position. I jumped without a second thought as sliding further down into the hole. Dirt, waste and crap all over me, just to escape from my dear sister. It didn't really matter, after a few minutes of sliding through the waste. Cuts, bruises and pain was what I felt, until I ended up flying out a chute into a frozen pond.
My power is gone, usually this wouldn't faze me, but nothing was going my way. I need answers, but who would be able to give me them? Carl use to be my friend, but now he is only interested in me as a test subject… should I look for Tsubaki? It was the first step in the right direction, but I needed to get to safety.
Traveling across the pond, only to reach half way before the ice started to give out. The odd sound of ice starting to crack, had clouded my mind, leading me to pale at what could happen. Slowing down my pace was the only thing that I could do, but it meant she would catch up…. I don't have the time for that. Quickly trying to get across the ice, but before I could reach the floor. It had cracked from under me and I plunged into the water.
I fought my way through the water, but it didn't help at all. Soon my energy started to fade from my body, it seems that I couldn't go any longer. The freezing water was slowing me down, and I started to fall towards the bottom of the pond. Maybe this was the best way to go out, it would be simpler and better than whatever the hell I was facing.
Looking up towards the hole in the ice, someone was staring at me. It was such an odd feeling, maybe it was saya ready to finish me or someone else here to watch me die. I didn't care, as my eyes started to slowly close and the need for air was upon me. The next few seconds were of me gasping for air, and soon falling limp in the freezing water.
