I ran as fast as I could, rumor was it is that the man slayer, Battousai, was in our town, ready to kill at anytime! That blood thirsty scoundrel! I will do anything to get my revenge. I ran
down all the darkest parts of the alley, where any fight would be held. And then I finally found him, and something was under him. The body was small and when I finally recognized the
face… It was Kosa.
"Kosa!" I yelled. I have totally forgotten about the Battousai, when I looked up he was gone.
"BATTOUSAI!" I yelled, tears falling from my face. I buried my face in my brother's shoulder and picked him up, to go home.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*Shinta's point of view*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
I was back at her house, that I wasn't even worthy to step in. Tears fell from my eyes as I choked. I killed a child, my lovers brother, a boy that looked up to me as his brother and I
killed him, because Battousai has to kill every damn thing that gets in his fucking way. I could feel Battousai itching to come out to kill again, he feeds on my anger, and the blood of
innocent men. O, how I long to be just Shinta, the man that Sanso sees that would never kill, just a peaceful man, with his wife, but no… I have Battousai following me where ever I go…
I don't want to be Battousai! I am tired of killing! I am tired of bringing pain to others!
"Shinta! Shinta where are you?!" Sanso yelled, choking with tears. I wiped away mine as fast as I could.
"Wh- What's wrong?"
"Look at what the Battousai did! He killed Kosa!" She said putting him gently on the floor, burying her face on my chest.
"He was just a boy, nothing more, why?" I put my hand on the back of her head as I said,
"Sometimes the Battousai can't help what he does…"
"What are you saying? He is nothing but a blood thirsty killer who will show no mercy to anybody!"
"There now," I said, "Someday Battousai will pay for what he has done…"
*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^5 days later*^!*^!*^!*!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^
We buried Kosa in the yard, as it read:
May Angels lead you in, for you are truly one.
A friend of Sanso made this, everyday since he died I came to this spot, praying to him, to forgive what I have done, it is a sin, I should be punished for. When I finish my job in the
Revolution, I shall never kill again. I will protect the innocent, like how I should have protected Kosa. I will try to be known as Shinta, nothing else.
I walked back to the house where Sanso was, on the patio looking into a distance. She smiled at me as I walked towards her.
"I have something I want to tell you."
"Hm?"
"I went to the doctors today to check up on something, that I wasn't quite sure of…"
"And that was…?"
"Shinta," She said, smiling, "We are going to have a baby."
My frown turned into a smile in an instant as I said, "That is wonderful!" I gave her a hug as she smiled.
"But what about the wedding though?" she asked.
"We will get married after the baby is born, you should be able to fit in a kimono by then."
She hit me over the head and said, "Thanks…"
^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^Later^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~
I had left Sanso for another battle, I will be gone for not long, the revolution is almost over, for the fact that the imperialists have taken over completely except for this one spot of land.
And we our here to take care of that…
The men were ruthless and large, arrogant by the grins on there faces. One withdrew his sword ran to me using the Je-gen style. Fool… As he sliced I jumped up in the air and stabbed
him in the heart, he dropped dead, as many men were running away…
Let them go, the cowards. I have bigger aspects I am looking for…
I ran to find the leader of this group, to think of all the time I am waisting for this.
"I see we meet again… Battousai."
I looked at his cold complextion, I gave the same hatred back.
"Saitou…" I said with something very cold in my voice, "Draw your weapon and fight me, Saitou, my blade wants your blood…"
Saitou is the leader of the Moburo wolf, and is one of the most fierce enemies of the Imperialists.
"Tsk tsk, Himura, I am not here to fight you, atleast not today, I am here for a threat."
"Threat? What sort of threat do you have on me?"
"Your fiance… your upcoming child, her hatred towards Battousai…"
My eyes widened in utter shock.
"How do you know all this?"
"It's really funny, how the clatter of money can link you to all sorts of information."
I was about to shieth my sword, until he said, "Nuh uh, my death equals her knowing…"
I let go of the handle and said, "What the hell do you want from me?"
"You to join the Moburo Wolf."
"Never. I would never join your dirty group of fighter. Besides you have no proof that I am Battousai, she would never believe you."
He pulled something out his pocket, it was piece of paper.
"The paper, has your whole future in my hands."
"What are you saying?"
"Simple, this is your whole record, I was looking through the imperialist files and I found this, it has everything that even the lord would know about you, occupation, birth, blood type…
everything…"
I only looked in horror.
"And if you don't give up being an imperialist and join the Moburo wolf, your lover will die knowing she loved the lowest of the killers, the Battousai."
I could kill him now, I would, but Sanso…
"Good day Battousai, may we meet again…"
*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^Two days later*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^!*^
Life has been pure hell for me(A/N: If you are thinking that this is OOC, he is kinda the Battousai right now, cause all of the horrible stuff that is happening. ^O^*)
I can never betray the imperialism belief, Yamigato needs me to make this new era. But,
It is also risking my future family, I could never let that happen.
I had to go again tonight, to fight the Moburo Wolf, I will kill everyone of those bloody bastards.
*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**Sanso's point of view*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~
I can't believe I actually thought that Shinta was the manslayer, that was stupid of me. If he were to be Battousai, he would've killed me by now.
Well, though the doctor says I shouldn't be running, but I am only a week and a half pregnant, you can't even tell that I am going to have the baby. I am going to get revenge on my
brother, for what Battousai has done. If I were to find him tonight, I would use my sniping skills to get him.
Shinta was leaving tonight anyway, he finally told me what he was doing everynight, he works for the trade in for Europe and America. Still I don't know why he hasn't told me before…
I was still deciding on a name for the baby, I want it to be a boy, boys always listen to there mothers and are more lovable.
Shinta wants it to be a girl, I would love to have a girl, but I would still rather have it be a boy. He just wants daddy's little girl to spoil rotten.
Just thinking about the life I am going to live with him. I gave a sigh…
~^^~^~^~^~^^~^^~^~^^~^^~Later that day^~~^~^~^^~^^~^~^^~^~^^~^~
I was walking across the town later, I wanted to go shopping for a kimono. My Aunt Hira, she owns a Kimono shop, gives them to me for half price. I love her, she is like a mother to me,
when my parents died she would help me take care of Kosa.
When I waked in the store( which it was called: Silky Flowers) I found my aunt, I had told her the news about the baby and she was very excited about being a great Aunt.
She gave me a hug and said, "Hello Sanso, how are you today?"
"I am fine, just a little tired, needless to say."
"Well I am sure I have a kimono for you, I will be right back, I just finished making one this morning!"
I was leaning against a wall and as I was listening to a conversation that two women were having.
"Have you heard about the Battousai?"
"O yes I have heard he just killed five men yesterday, I won't let my children out at night knowing that he is around."
"Really, that fiend, the governor should let the war carry away from towns!"
"Do you know where he is fighting at every night?"
"No! Do you?"
"Yes, my husband told me, he works in the imperialist government, he told me that the wars will be carried in that building not to far from here, you know, the Sabatouki?"
"Against the Moburo wolf?"
"Indeed… Youi that building is going to be reck tonight!"
The women carried a new conversation. Well, the Battousai was goint to have a little surprise tonight.
*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^That night*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^~*^
I put on my outfit that I haven't put on in a while, I took my bow and arrows out of my closet.
"Hello old friend," I said, pulling the string back, to see if I still had the strength to pull it back.
I put the arrows on the back of my back and walked outside, the pre-war was would start any moment.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*At the building~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I looked around, and there he was, talking to a man, his back turned at me so I couldn't get a glimpse of his face. I took an arrow out, I hope that my sniping skills haven't fallen since the
last time I have used them, then the man he was talking to caught me and said, "Looks like we have a visitor Man slayer."
He looked at me and I finally go to see who this horrible man was who caused me so much pain.
