Prologue

Here's the prologue for my new Samurai 7 fanstory. Again, it is a continuation from the end of the series, because I think that it had such a horrible ending. I'm trying something new, there will be two versions of this story. One will be from Emperor Ukyo's point of view, while the other will be from another character's POV. Please leave a review and I will try to update all three of my stories as soon as possible! Thanks! - mewmewflora15

He was falling; falling down into the dark depths of a ravine. In a moment, he would be meeting his death. He was never going to see the face of his beloved lady again, let alone steal her away from the wretched samurai. He remembered her smiling face, her chocolate brown hair glistening in the autumn sunlight. He tried to remember the tone of her voice.

He wasn't ready to die. There was still so much that he wanted to do. He still had so much work to do in the Capital. Finally, he still had to make sure that his lady was safe.

He closed his eyes and prepared for his death. In just a matter of seconds, his life would be at its end.

If only I had another chance, he thought. Then I would do everything differently. Maybe, then, she would be mine.

Suddenly, an extreme pain overcame his body. He felt the cold, hard ground collide with his legs and then the rest of his body. He felt his skin grow cold and then, everything went black.
