Chapter 10:Zaffiroth and the Murasame
Zapland's Point of View
I looked in the direction of footsteps and saw the doctor who owned the house we were in.
"How's Ray?"Cirrus asked.
"See for yourself,"the doctor said as he stepped away from the door.
'Like he would be phased from going unconscious,'I thought as Ray walked into the room,soon followed by Sarah and Trunks.
"Hey guys.Anything happened while I was out?"Ray asked.
"Not really.But you did miss these fools worrying like you had been attacked by a monster,"I replied.
I received a few glares,which only caused me to smirk.
"Nono,is the 'you-know-what' here?"he questioned,looking at the silver beast.
I could tell he did not want the doctor to know why we were there.
"Yes,I believe so.But I can feel something else nearby,"Nono stated.
I felt a chill run down my spine as I sensed something.Something I had felt before.
"The silver haired monster..."I growled.
"What is it?"Jessie asked.
Ray and I looked towards each other.I could tell he could feel the same presence.And from the look on his face,so could Trunks.It was something all too familiar to me.I had felt it exactly nine years prior.It could only be the man that burnt down my home.
"C'mon,we've got business to take care of,"Ray stated.
I nodded and stood up from the brown chair I had been seated on.We thanked the doctor for his hospitality and walked out of the door.What we saw proved my suspicions.There stood a silver haired man wearing a black cloak,grey shirt,and black pants.A long, curved blade was held in his left hand.
"Old man!?"Ray exclaimed.
The man turned around his eyes focused on Ray,"Hmph...You."
There was a low,almost inaudible rumble that escaped Ray's throat.
"Who is this man?"Trunks asked.
"He's my...My father,"Ray replied.
Everyone gasped.I was the only who knew it.
"How can that monster be your father!?He's a....and you're--"Cirrus started.
"Shut up!This doesn't concern any of you right now!"Ray growled.
I glared at the man in front of us,"Zaffiroth..."
"Ah.Zapland.Have you figured out the mystery of your brother yet?"he asked.
I drew my sword and pointed it at him,"Shut up!"
Ray stepped forward,"So..You burned down our home?"
Zaffiroth nodded,"And I'd do it again."
"That sword!It can't be!"Nono exclaimed.
"I see the protector of the Masamune recognizes my sword,"Zaffiroth said.
"What is it,Nono?"Ray asked.
"The evil blade...The Murasame,"Nono replied,fear evident in his deep voice.
We all gasped in surprise.
"Spirit of the Murasame!Come out and destroy my foes!!"Zaffiroth shouted,throwing the sword into the air.
Darkness surrounded all of us as the sword started to take the shape of a humanoid figure.It would have looked normal,had it not been completely jet-black in color.
"Are these the fools you've been worried about for the past nine years,master?Ha ha!They appear extremely weak to me,"the Murasame said.
"Don't underestimate them,"Zaffiroth warned.
The Murasame ran forward and none of us saw how,but we were all instantly on the ground.Zaffiroth walked over to me and lifted me up by the collar of my shirt.
"You're just as weak as your brother,"he snarled and dropped me back to the ground.
I used all of my strength to follow him with my eyes.He walked over to Ray and did the same thing he had done to me.
"You'll never be strong,"he stated and threw Ray back to the ground.
Then he walked over to Trunks and lifted him up as well.
"You're a fool for accepting Ray as your only friend in this dimension,"with that,he tossed Trunks back to the ground as well.
He started to walk towards Sarah and was about to pick her up when Ray had somehow made it to his feet.
"Don't...you dare...hurt her,"he warned.
"Perhaps I really did underestimate you.Most wouldn't be able to stand for a month,if they stood at all,"Zaffiroth said.
Ray managed to chuckle,"Well,I'm definitely not like most people."
"I can...second that notion,"I said,stumbling to my own feet.
"What...?"Zaffiroth trailed off.
"I may...not know you...But I have been..told enough..to know that you are evil,"Trunks stated,standing up as well.
"IMPOSSIBLE!!"Zaffiroth shouted as the others stood up as well.
"You can't...keep us down,old man,"Ray laughed.
Zaffiroth looked around at us,"Hm..I must be off.I don't wish to cause any more damage until later."
With that,he and the Murasame,still in human form,disappeared.The darkness around us shattered away.
"I hope..that doctor..won't charge too much.It looks like..we'll need his help,"Ray said,looking down at his wounds.
'How can that sword move so fast?'I thought,never taking my eyes off of where Zaffiroth and the Murasame had been standing.
Ending Notes:"I know,a rather one-sided fight.I wanted to show that Trunks,Ray,and the others didn't a stand a chance,so I had to make it short.So,now do you know why I chose to use 'Masamune' and 'Murasame'?Those swords are from an old Japanese legend.The Masamune was forged by a great man of the same name.Masamune's(the man,not the sword)student by the name of Murasame wanted to craft a sword the same way as his mentor,but lacked experience and understanding.Masamune's swords had a...holy air around them,while Murasame's had evil intentions.The legend says that if you placed the Masamune and Murasame(the swords this time)into a stream,lilies would gather around the Masamune and never be harmed because of its holy powers.But once the lilies drifted downstream,the Murasame would use its evil powers to slice them in half(which explains why I got the evil dude to wield it).There are a lot of variations on this legend,and I've already used a lot of space on the one.Anyway,please review.And thanks again to Juunanagou4ever for the review."
