Wide eyes and bloodstains, wide eyes and bloodstains, wide eyes and bloodstains. Oichi remembers, Oichi hears Aiza, feels Aiza, but sees him as a rotten corpse mangled by the greedy tongues of cannot forgive, will not forgive, Oichi will kill. "But how?!" Oichi yells within the barren cell. Her weak spirit will surely break against the cold ruthless aura emitted by her older brother, Oda. Yet, what is left for her in this world but slavery? Perhaps she was never free to begin with…"OH sister-in-law" Nohime waltz down the dank corridor to Oichi's cell. With a derisive sneer she shoves a plate of moldy cheese and a rock hard piece of bread to her dear sister-in-law. Oichi draws her fingers around the piece of cheese, but then hunches over to the side and vomits from the horrific odor. After staring down at her pool of vomit she turns towards Nohime, standing erect, pristine, and beautiful. In a pathetic plea Oichi clasps her hands and begs to be released. "Only you Nohime have the keys…." She's too weak to finish the rest of her sentence under the nose of Nohime. A mocking laugh shatters her hope. Without demeaning herself to give an explanation Nohime leaves without a reply and gaily shuts the door of Oichi's filthy cell.
A sudden burst occurs overhead, stompings can be heard from all directions, and the neighing of horses overwhelm her through the tiny hole of the ceiling. Now is the time! Oichi glances across her cell: tray, bread, cheese, blanket,pillow,and nothing else. How will she defend herself? Oichi falls into a deeper despair, it's one thing to be the prisoner of your brother, but to be a prisoner to a stranger…Yet no one is as evil as Oda perhaps she could…*Bang* *Bang* *Bang* Haunting gunshots ring through her ears followed by a piercing "BWAHAHA" Oda sounds like he's enjoying himself, a shiver passes. *Clink* *Clink* *Clink* "huh?" Specks of rock from above graze her nose. Following the trail she finds the tip of a pickax poking through the hole. The snickering of a squirrel can be heard close-by. A brawny arm jams through in impatience . "eh?" Oichi is too dumbfounded to move. The man known as Kaede reveals himself to Oichi through the hole. "Hey there miss would you care getting out? This place is about to be blown to smithereens" "W—what?!" Her reticent behavior pushed Kaeda to the very limits of his patience, and so without waiting for her to reply he pulled up from above onto a mound located at a steep angle from the balcony of her malevolent brother. The decline was shallow, however, there stood Nohime waiting patiently with her hand preoccupied with the severed head of an unnamed soldier. "Ohohoh, what is a pretty lady like you playing with such filthy things?" "Hmph" *bang* Just like that bullet hole appeared inches behind Oichi's right shoulder blade onto the rock surface. "Ah" disappointed, Nohime reloads. As she is reloading Kaede grabs Oichi's wrists, and rushes her along the rim of the mound towards the opposite direction of Nohime. *bang**bang* Bullets follow their trail. Before Nohime can reload her third round a raucous yell commands her gaze towards Date Masamune. In a sudden impulse a current of energy sweeps across Ochi's entire body. The next second, an arm of portentous size seizes hold of Nohime's neck.
