Prologue
Many years ago, there were many battles. Among the battlefields, the people came to fear one man.
They claimed him to be the Strongest. With flowing red hair in a bloodstained armor. A long sword, that moved faster than anyone could see. And his eyes. Eyes with the same color as blood. Eyes filled with fire and to just look at them could make you paralyzed in fear.
His name was Onime no Kyo, killer of a thousand men.
Everyone feared him. They all said that he was a coldhearted demon who just enjoyed killing.
After the great battles of Sekigahara, Onime no Kyo got a price on his head. That price is a legend among the bountyhunters. One million Ryo. That's a lot, isn't it? I as well, were after those money some years ago. I was on a wild searching for a man with demon eyes.
And you could say that my search resulted in jackpot.
Before I knew the word I was standing in front of those demonic eyes that everyone feared.
For some reason I trusted the man. I don't know how I happened... it just... did.
I traveled together with this demon. I trusted him more and more and I got to know his trues self.
The truth is that Onime no Kyo is very kind. He never shows it, but deep inside he cares about people.
The truth is that Onime no Kyo is very childish. He is so simple in his mind. He never thinks of complicated ways, always take the shortest and easiest.
The truth is that Onime no Kyo is more like a kitten than a demon, as long as it not comes to fighting.
He never shows his true personality openly though. He is mostly quiet, never answer questions. He is lazy, rude, perverted and a drunktard.
But he never lies. Never.
I don't know when, but just like that... I fell in love with him.
And as time passed by, his thirst for blood faded.
Kyo is a legend. Today he is slowly falling into a myth, but still with the title Strongest.
As I tell you this, I'm standing in front of a sakura tree. It's spring and still cold at nights.
I've been living with Kyo for almost two years. It's amazing! Two years!
As I look up on the beautiful pink I feel how the memories flash by. So fast. So much happened.
Once, Kyo told me this;
Sakura trees are fantastic. Whenever you feel down, you just need to look at them and breath in the air around them. Then your soul is at peace. They also bring people together.
I believe in those words. I've tried myself and it's true!
Sakura trees are amazing!
To be continued
As I wrote the story I realized that I wasn't happy with the prologue. So I decided to change it.
The prologue is important in a story, it's purpose is to make the people fired up and to make them want to read the continuing. I just get credit for the other chapters...
So I hope that this was better! I hope you continue to read the other chapters!
