Chapter 5 – Purpose to Live

"NOOOOOOO! You Bastard! You are the one who kidnapped me right? You… You… get out of here!"

"I… I'm sorry, I didn't mean to look at you naked. I'm just worried about you that you are already hungry, that's why I brought you some food.

Yanagi suddenly stopped, and felt somewhat ashamed of herself as she see Koganei's watery eyes. .

"I'm sorry boy, I thought that you are a bad guy. Please forgive me. I'm not mad at you"

"Really? You are not mad at me anymore? Yay. Yay!" Koganei jumped up and down. Yanagi smiled at him

~ You're really a kid. ~

"What is your name?"

"I'm Kaoru Koganei. Sorry about kidnapping you. I really don't want to do it. I'm just ordered to. I can't let you escape either. Kurei will be angry when he finds out."

Suddenly, Yanagi shivers in terror "You… you don't mean the man with the mask? Kaoru, please tell me, what is going to happen to me? Will I be killed by that man?"

"No. He won't do it. Believe me Sis." Koganei raised is voice. Then a lower voice followed, "He told me, will never do such a thing."

~ Kaoru. I'm so glad. I feel very secure with you. Don't leave me. I want you to stay by my side. ~

Suddenly a message from Kurei distracted their discussion.

Koganei looks at his beeper, "Intruders? One who is in a ninja outfit?"

"Really Kaoru? Finally my knight has come." Yanagi laughed.

"Knight? Is he very strong?" Koganei asked excitedly.

"Yes he is. And he is very handsome too. Someday I'll marry him."

Koganei looks confused. "What's marry?"

"Oh! Haha I talked too much. Sorry it's nothing Kaoru."

"Right. Haha See ya later Sis. I'll come back after I've taken care of the problems."

~ Knight? A very strong and handsome guy? Who can he be? I gotta meet him! ~

For hours, Recca, Fuuko, Mikagami and Domon fought their way in the Mansion. One by one, they defeated the guardians, Ganko, Sekiou, Mowkuren and Koganei. As Recca and his friends met with each other in a huge room filled with decorations. It was the same room which Raiha and the others decorated. There, they were welcomed by the owner of the Mansion, Kurei. Behind Kurei are two giant door where you could hear the scream of agony from Yanagi as she is being experimented.

"Recca so you've defeated Mowkuren and Koganei. Very interesting." Kurei sneered, "At least you four made it to the top, but don't think you will ever be able to rescue your princess again."

Kurei brought out his flame, Kurenai. But until then, Recca's determination enabled him to summon Resshin and defeat Kurenai. It ended the battle as well when Kurei finally lost all of his energy. Yanagi Sakoshita is finally back in Recca's hands as Ganko cries in the corner with the unconscious Mr. Tatesako.

~ It's saddening. The whole mansion has been destroyed. Kurei, are you alright? ~

"What are you looking at Koganei? And why are you here?" Koganei hurriedly turned back. He saw Kurei without his mask and standing before him, are four members of his Jyushinshu.

"Brother, It's just that, I want to wave goodbye to you." He cried.

~ Koganei! But… But why? ~

"I no longer want to work for you brother. I'm sorry." He added.

~ Koganei. No. Don't do this to me. ~

"Koganei! You fool. I will never forgive you boy, Kurei-sama, do you want me to destroy him with my Fukyu Waon?" It was Neon, a female member of the Jyushinshu.

"No Neon, leave him alone. He's just a kid. Let him go."

Koganei runs to the forest ahead. As the burning mansion collapses, Kurei and the rest of his Jyushinshus only stood there.

"Neon, Jisho Raiha, Genjuroh, please leave me alone for a while. I'll meet you at my father's mansion."

The four Jyushinshus vanished in thin air. As Kurei watches Koganei, who is still running to the woods ahead. His tears slowly fell down.

~ Koganei. I'll… no longer be your elder brother. Never call me your brother again. You're just the same as my father. I'll… I'll kill you all! ~

~ Brother, I'm sorry, I'm very confused. I don't know what to do. But I promise, someday, I'll come back to you. I'll come back to you and say, Brother, I've gotten stronger. But for now, I have to search for my own reason. I have to search for my own purpose. Someone beneath this forest, might know the answer… ~
