"Pitiful… humans…" Orochi fell to the floor lifeless. The rest of a black aura surrounding him disappeared. Nobunaga Oda, one of the leaders of the anti-Orochi coalition stood over his lifeless body. Nobunaga's blade started to glow a black aura.

"It has ended! Orochi is no more!" Nobunaga shouted to his forces inside Koshi Castle.

"This is only the beginning though." Shingen Takeda laughed.

"Yes… The beginning." Nobunaga said.

"Stop it guys! We should be happy now! No more fighting! I mean it." Xiao Qiao said pouting.

"This is the start of a new era! One of rebuilding and peace." Shingen laughed. "Calm down young one." Everyone smiled and gathered around expect for one.

"A glorious war!" Kenshin Uesugi said and walked away angrily. The rest of Nobunaga's generals looked on in awe as Kenshin walked away.

"So…" Huang Zhong began looking at the other generals of Nobunaga. "This war… it's finally over. What do we do now?"

"Yeah this world hasn't changed back so we're stuck here." Guan Ping responded

"Rebuild. This world will soon fall into another war, but we must enjoy this peace while we can." These thoughts echoed through Nobunaga's head. The war, the faces, everything was a memory of the Great War now."

"Lord Nobunaga." Hideyoshi began walking up to Nobunaga's throne.

"I sense it. It's coming."

"Lord Nobunaga, the war ended over two years ago. Orochi and his forces aren't coming back. Just sit back and relax. Enjoy the peace you made." Hideyoshi smiled. "So why linger on the past?" Nobunaga walked over to the balcony overlooking the capital.

"Tell me Hideyoshi, what do you see over there?" Nobunaga asked pointing to the woods near the city. A purple glow emanated from the woods.

"What is it my lord?" Hideyoshi asked looking down on it.

"The snakes… those pitiful serpents are coming back. Orochi's advent is approaching."

"Are you serious? Something must be done then!"

"It's too late. I've watched them spawn for almost half a year now. Letting them come, quietly preparing for battle. Letting this war come. And I shall rain down hell upon these serpents when they attack."

"When is the attack coming?"

"Muhahahaha! They shall be here by tomorrow. Prepare the troops for battle. Warn them of the imminent attack." He laughed manically as he walked away leaving hideyoshi quietly watching the portal for a moment longer, before he left to follow Nobunaga's orders.

(The next day, Shu capital)

"It's so pretty!" Xing Cai said looking from atop the Shu castle. Guan Ping and Zhao Yun smiled and nodded. Liu Bei walked up behind them.

"My lord." Zhao Yun bowed.

"None of those formalities. I'm here to simply enjoy the beauty just like you." Liu Bei smiled. He had been captured and held prisoner throughout the entire war with Orochi. With the combined forces of Nobunaga, Zhao Yun, Cao Pi, and Sun Ce, victory became possible, and the serpent king was killed. Liu Bei and any other prisoners were released. Even though two years had passed, he still enjoyed any time he was with his vassals to make up for his incarceration.

"Yes of course." Zhao Yun smiled and laughed. All four of them stood quietly overlooking the beauty of the Shu capital.

"Xing Cai, Zhao Yun, I want to thank you guys for pulling the shu forces together and also, for finding such magnificent warriors as Yukimura Sanada and Magoichi Saika. But most importantly… thank you from the bottom of my heart for rescuing me from Orochi's evil clutches."

"Of course my lord. It was my goal. My inspiration and hope." Zhao Yun smiled and bowed.

"Bad news guys… I'm leaving Shu." Magoichi Saika began starting to walk out of the castle.

"But lord Magoichi why?" Liu Bei asked.

"I'm a mercenary. It's what I do, don't worry though, should anything happen I'll be there to help if you need me. I'm not cheap though. Hahaha." Magoichi turned towards the door.

"I understand master Magoichi. I wish you luck in your journey home. And I'll make sure to send for your aid if need be." Liu Bei smiled, bowed, and went behind his throne. "This was something I found while I was captured. I thought it would be a good thing to keep. And my lord, I'm giving it to you." Liu Bei presented Magoichi with a very nice looking rifle. "It may not be the same as you're used to. But its efficiency is better then a musket and it can work in the rain. It's pretty powerful and of course, it has a blade." Magoichi smiled. "I want you to have it. Just do us a favor and remember us." He handed it over to Magoichi he scanned it up and down. It had a gold handle and a black barrel.

"Whoa… Thanks Liu Bei. I've had a good time working with you guys so don't worry I'll be back." Magoichi walked out still looking at the rifle. Yukimura ran by him while he was walking, he stopped for a second but didn't pay any mind.

"I'm going to miss him," Liu Bei began. "He was always a funny guy and a great warrior though his way with woman was a bit… Unique. Haha." Yukimura barged into the room.

"My lord I bring urgent news!" Liu Bei looked at him. "Orochi's forces have returned. They'll be here in only a few hours!"

"Ugh… oh no! We've got to gather our forces! How could they come back?!"

"Portals have been seen around each capital. Soldiers have been coming through for two months according to Nobunaga." Yukimura swirled his spear over his head twice and walked over to the balcony. "My lord, please allow me to lead your forces."

"No. I'm going to lead them. You're going to come along of course. Zhao Yun, assemble the troops." Zhao Yun led the troops to the city entrance soon after. "Men, I never thought we'd have to face them again. I'm sorry but I ask for your assistance one more time!" Yukimura turned his horse to face the troops.

"Listen, I know you all have enjoyed peace and I'm sorry that it has been broken. After we finish off these slithering beasts, the peace shall be returned and I shall make sure that everyone is happy!" The soldiers started to cheer as Yukimura faced his horse back to the enemy direction. He spun his spear above his head and pointed towards the enemy. "Let's go!" Liu Bei, Yukimura, and the rest of the Shu officers and soldiers began to march towards the enemy.

(Nobunaga's Base)

"The troops have been gathered. Hideyoshi, Mitsuhide, lead your troops west. Katsuie, Ranmaru, lead take your division to the east. Orez…" A man with jet black hair stepped forward. He wore black samurai pants and a white shirt with the Japanese symbol for dark on it in black. He wore a blood red sleeveless vest that went down to his knees. His blood red eyes went to the souls of his enemies.

"Yes, lord Nobunaga." He responded in a calm voice.

"You brat! You're nothing more than a teenager! Yet you get to lead troops of your own!" Katsuie snarled.

"Katsuie silence. I've seen him in battle." Mitsuhide began. "He is no pushover. Trust me." Nobunaga laughed and continued.

"Lead your forces to the south. When we give the signal, strike their rear flank."

"Understood my lord." Nobunaga's forces began to mobilize for the battle.

'Why did he come back? He disappeared after Orochi was slain.' Mitsuhide thought to himself.

A/N: Ok ok ok we've got a lot to cover. Italicize alone is thoughts. Bold Italicize is flashbacks. Sequel to my first, don't worry it'll come back, just under temporary Maintenance. But yea, after the final battle, this is the sequel (in my own way, not the one that JUST came out) Warriors Orochi is awesome but I own none of it. Except Orez Takashi, Original character. Everything else is Koei or history. Haha enjoy R&R
