Prologue
"What am I gonna do? Three of my close friends are dead… and I'm next"
"Kidomaru-sama, I assure you that you are under my full protection. This assassin can not harm you." Kidomaru paced back and forth in his large office. Kidomaru was part of a large gang called the Sound Four. He and his three friends were the head leaders, and were well known inside a community within the country of Rice. Their gang murder, steal, and frighten people - It's their specialty.
However, just a week ago Jirobo, one of Kidomaru's friends, was found on the ground with his throat slashed open in his home. When Kidomaru, Tayuya, and Sakon heard what has happened to their close friend, they were appalled. Scared and thinking quickly, he hired a body guard , Iruna Takanawa, for the protection of him and his friends. The guard is 5'10' , young, and very strong. When Kidomaru did a background check, he found out that this guard was once in a special force - he knew this was the guy to hire.
However, his two other friends wanted to leave the Rice Country for their own safety a three days after Jirobo's death. Kidomaru did not want them to leave, but he understood why they wanted to. He assigned his guard to drive them to the airport. However, the guard reported back that both of Kidomaru's friends were dead, and died the same way Jirobo did.
The last leader of the Sound Four is now confused, and lost. He felt so alone now that all his close friends are now dead by the hands of an unknown assassin. He was scared stiff, he knew the assassin is after him.
"Kidomaru-sama, you just need to calm down. I'm sure this assassin isn't even here right now. Here something that could help. This helps me through some tough times. Close your eyes and breathe through the stomach. Take in deep breathes and let out slowly."
And so he did. He breathed in slowly and let out slowly. He could feel his heart beat slowing down after his first exhale. His body began to relax when he began to breathe in once more. "Very good, now once more." said the guard Iruna.
Breathing in, and breathing out. Kidomaru sighed in relief, he felt more relaxed and focused. He opened his eyes to see only his guard's arm stretched forward towards his neck, a kunai knife in hand. The knife was at his neck ready to slice across like butter. "I-Iruna… what are you doing!?"
"Iruna is not my name… And I'm simply getting rid of problems, such as your gang."
"Mr. um… please don't-"
"Don't worry. This will be quick…" Kidomaru gulped and felt his skin touch the cold, sharp end of the knife. He shut his eyes, waiting for his life to end. "And my name is Minato."
Kidomaru eyes opened wide, "The Yello-"
Slash…
