It had all happened so fast, clarity ringing into minds as a scream resounded through the city, along with loud clanging of steel colliding against steel. The entire scene was a blur in his mind, and all he knew at the moment, is that there was danger… glowing green axes pressed hard against his back, a tiny form clutched to his chest, eyes wide. Blood spatters everywhere, the rising thick stench of iron, so powerful it had him doing a double take, wondering if he was swallowing blood, gagging on the horrible stench as it grew stronger. Looking down to the person he held close, a slight laugh barely escaping him, the terrified girl looking up at him.

"You okay?" She nodded slowly, eyes watering up.

"Momma… daddy…. They…" he swallowed hard, not wanting to nod, though turning his head slightly, he looked over to the bodies that were skewered and cut apart, the two bodies lying in pools of blood. The nod was slow, not wanting to nod at all. Glancing towards the killer, he set her down slowly, keeping an eye on the crazed warrior that was apparently trying to massacre every moving thing. It didn't take long to recognize him.

"S-shikyo… Why are you doin' this?" the words could barely escape him, the girl shaking in his grasp as he kept his gaze on the killer. "Why… we just became at peace with the Untamed and you begin a massacre?"

"Why are we at peace with these people?! They're part animal! Monsters!" It wasn't hard to realize this guy was one of the few psychotic people that didn't want any race other than human to dominate. "Look at the girl you're defending! She's got bunny ears! Why are you defending monsters?!"

"They're not monsters Shikyo! They have feelings too! They're just like anyone!!!" Eyes scanning over the room briefly, he noticed a little snow hare, its white fur stained with blood, the tiny creature not moving anymore, along with a small kitten, the lovable fluff ball cut in two pieces. "You've slaughtered anything that moves! Anything that isn't human! What're you trying to do?!"

"CLEANSE PANGU!!"

"From what?! Are you trying to kill everything? What do you want? Humans to be the dominant race?"

"That's how it's meant to be right!?!?!?!"

"No!!" He knew that these people had feelings, he couldn't understand why Shikyo was trying to destroy them all, and he even killed the animals. It was… horrifying. "You even killed the animals Shikyo!"

"I did it for PANGU!"

"Killing animals isn't for Pangu! That's something a true monster would do! Killing innocent people! Killing children and babies! Killing little animals!"

"I am not a monster!!! I'm doing what's good for this world!" the crazed warrior screamed at the top of his lungs, twirling his spear in his hand before jabbing at the other warrior, the girl shrieking again in fear, the axe warrior managing to pull his axes out on time to knock the attack away, the spear burrowing into the wall before being jerked back roughly. "It's for Pangu! How could you stand against me!" the axe warrior's eyes widened a little, grip on the shining axes tightening.

"Shikyo stop it! Stop it please!"

"No! The Untamed will die! And anyone who defends the—" his words died off, having swung down at the axe warrior again, only this time, the spear smashed into the axes, tip of the weapon breaking off, ricocheting back towards him. It spliced in through his eye, bouncing inside his skull, the spear warrior's remaining eye rolling back, blood spurting from the other as he fell backwards. The girl released a blood curdling scream as the now dead warrior hit the floor, the blood continuing to spurt out; a fountain spouting out blood and gore.

Reaching over to the girl, the axe warrior covered her eyes, picking her up and walking out of the building where others were starting to gather, the ones who had heard the screams and some who might've seen some of the massacre, or results. He frowned a little, knowing many had died. The crazed warrior had caught them all by surprise… The girl was clinging to him, literally, and her grip on his clothing tighter than ever. Prying her off gently, he set her down, kneeling down in front of her.

"Are you going to be okay, Kaida-chan?" sniffling, she nodded slowly.

"I thnk so onii-ch-chan…" Smiling softly, he raised a hand, cupping her cheek lightly.

"You were brave, your parents would be proud of you Kaida…"

"B-but onii-ch-chan… th-they d-dead…" with that said, she burst into uncontrollable sobs, rushing towards the axe warrior, bawling her little eyes out, never wanting to remember the horrific site she'd witnessed ever again. Scooping the child up into his arms, he tried to soothe her, unsure of how to really do that, but it was his best shot, eventually passing the girl to a mother before heading off to do some business. He needed to talk to some people, and he wanted to help clean up the damages. He was just glad he could save Kaida… but disappointed he wasn't able to save anyone else. Deaths needed to be counted, names of the dead listed, and if there were orphans to the now dead adults, homes for them found. Kaida was one of them. He could still remember when he first met the girl…

A/N: Yes I did just stop there! Anyways if you saw this before by Takkun and Chi, this was actually written by me, but, they let me post up on their account until I could post on mine.
