::Kyo wakes up the next day, he feels no pain as he leans up as the blanket slides off of him, looking at his chest, his shirt was no longer on, he looks around not seeing any wounds not even a bruise as he blinks a few times::."what happened to my wounds?" ::he didn't really care.. He was just happy his wounds where gone, he soon got up out of the bed and walked into the next room seeing nobody, he walked to the front door and opened it seeing he was in a huge open field with a mountain not far to the east and a couple trees around the house, he sees the old man and the young girl next to the old man, they where talking, Kyo walks over to them as the young girls eyes widen:: "Kyo! You should still be in bed your woun-.." ::she stoped in mid sentence seeing that all of Kyo's wounds are gone, he was only in his wooden sandles and his baggey dark blue pants:: "hey Crashion.where is my armor?" ::the old man nodded:: 'I threw it away..it was all torn and burnt.. I have something better for you ::he turned around bending over picking up a shirt turning around tossing it to Kyo, it was a black short sleeve shirt, it was all Velcro and would be very tight on him Kyo put it on as the old man tossed Kyo some Velcro fingerless gloves that would go up to right below his elbow, the fingerless gloves have small steel rings that would go around his fingers, the old man then tosses Kyo a red Bracer, Kyo equips it to his left arm, it was solid steel and very thick and strong, Kyo walks over to man smiling:: "I'm going to train you to become a true samuri.wearing this will help you move quicker..and now..I will give you one of my swords" ::the old man grabbed the sword sheathed at his side, it had a black sheath and the hilt had a torn green like tape all around that made the hilt more comfortable to hold, Kyo takes it unsheathing it seeing a dragon engraved on it curving around the blade, and several japenese symbols on, saying {Hope, power, Energy, and honor} Kyo smiled and then tied to it his sash unsheathing the sword:: "now what do I have to do to prove I am worthy of your training" ::the old man smirked evily:: "you must kill demon" ::Kyo's eye's widened:: "what!?" "you heard me..the demon is in a cave at the base of the Mountain over there now go..you have to slay it before sunset" ::without hesitation Kyo darted off towards the mountain sheathing his katana, running in the speed of a blur, he reached the cave quickly and hesitated on going on then slowly entered the pitch black cave walking in slowly it was extremely hard to see slowly making his way threw, after a while he saw a light near the end, he quickly ran towards it entering a huge room with torchs..but the flames where blue, he blinked several times as his eyes adjusted to the light, he then heard loud footsteps slowly approaching him, he looks around franticly then saw a huge muscular demon approaching him, with grey prickly skin, it had long sharp fingernails and piercing bloodshot eyes as saliva ran out of it's mouth looking as if it haden't eaten in days as it started to run at Kyo, his eyes widened and then jumped to the side out of the way of the demon as it slid on the ground turning charging at Kyo again, Kyo quickly unsheathed his sword the monster swung it's left fist at him as Kyo jumped under the massively large arm of the monster thrusting his sword up under the monster as it screamed loud in pain as blood spurred from the monster, Instead of pulling it straight out Kyo smirked ripping out to the right side the monsters arm deep as the arm dangled, the demons bone showed from the massively deep wound. The monster swung it's other arm at Kyo verticly as Kyo quickly turned to his side but not fast enough as the massively large hand hit him sending him smacking into the wall as the wall cracked, Kyo closing his left eye tightly as he slowly stood then charged at the demon, the demon swung it's arm at him again but Kyo ducked his head as the hand went over him as he ran by the monsters side letting his massively sharp Katana cut threw the monsters side letting the blood spill onto the ground, the monster spun around swinging it's arm at him as he jumped over it landing on the monsters arm running up the arm as the demons eyes widened as he thrusted his sword threw the monsters eye and going threw it's head as it let it's arm dangle as Kyo smirked from the blood pouring out onto his sword, he pulled his sword out hopping off of the demon's shoulder as it's body still stood as he looked at the demon, then a huge eye opened up on the monster's chest, Kyo's eyes widened in fear as the eye shot out a huge blue beam as it hit him making him go flying into the wall as it was burning his face but the Velcro shirt he was wearing was somehow protecting his flesh as he screamed from his unprotected face and arms, his sword glowed a bright blue then pushing the blast back Kyo had no clue was was happeneding as he continued to hold his sword out in front of him till the blast disappeared, Kyo then charged at the demon again thrusting his sword threw the eye as the eye closed around the sword, he pulled his sword out thrusting it into the monsters eye again and then sheathed his blood stained sword looking at the demon as it till it collapsed, then there is a cracking sound by Kyo::
::Kyo turns his head looking at the entrance where he came from and then saw a huge boulder come down blocking the passageway as he turns his head seeing another boulder coming down blocking the passageway that let's you go farther, then he looks up hearing a buzzing sound seeing hundreds of demons making their way down towards him his eyes widened, some of the demons where small some where massively large, he then just smirked clutching the sword tightly with both hands as the sword glowed blue for a moment:: "alright.this'll be more interesting!" ::the demons flew at him he hacked threw one of the smaller ones as if it where nothing as it screeched as a puddle of blood flew from it he jumped into the air at one of the larger ones slashing it's arm off then kicking it in the back of the head propelling him higher in the air at some of the other demons as one human sized demon punched Kyo in the face lunging Kyo all the way back to the ground as he hits it hard and then hops back up quickly counting all of the demons in there. He counts up 34 of them as he just gets in his fighting stance waiting for the demons to strike as he just smirks and then charges at them as they charge at him::
::the old man was looking at the Cave smirking, he could sense everything that was happing inside::
::Ferverus slowly approaches the large town, there where men mounted on small dragons flying around the town as Ferverus slowly walked into the town, people where walking around carrying on with their business, he bumped into a knight as the knight grabbed Ferverus by the cuff of his cloak as Ferverus smirked:: "hey! Watch where the hell your going!" ::Ferverus then grabs the hilt of his sword then brings it down cutting the man clean straight threw his side cutting him in half with a devilish smirk on Ferverus as the people around him scream, the cloak waves from his quick smooth movement as the men on the dragons lunge down at Ferverus, the dragon shoots a fireball at Ferverus as he jumps back out of the way as it exploads, one of the people trying to flee trips as Ferverus runs by him letting his blade run along the ground slicing the man's skull into two, Ferverus jumps high into the air at the man on the dragon swinging it once quickly at the dragon then once at the man as both of their heads slowly fell off as he decended back to the ground holding his sword over his head bringing it down quickly cutting a woman into two as the child looks up at him crying as he glars at the child as his blood red eyes glowed blood red as a knight charges at Ferverus before he could swing his sword at the child, the man thrusts his sword at Ferverus's side as his sword snaps in half, Ferverus laughs at him:: "your all fools! You'll all die here!" ::he brings the sword down on the man's shoulder cutting his arm off as he screams in pain as the young child starts to run Ferverus runs at the Kid as knight shoots an arrow at Ferverus as it snaps, he turns his head looking at the knight as he dives into the air lunging at the man,the man screams as he brings the sword up under the mans chin cutting up his face as he turns around with blood on his face with an evil smile, he then begins to laugh evily as he continues his onslaught::
::Kyo is now down to only three demons left, he is panting heavily, there is a deep cut on his left cheek where blood is trickling down, he is only holding his sword with one hand since his left has a deep cut as it is hanging limp at his side, he then rushed at one of the two small demons left as it shoots a spike at him but he sways out of the way bringing his sword down horizontally cutting the small demon in two then swinging his sword vertically at the larger demon cutting down it's head as it shrieked, the little demon shot a spike at Kyo's back as it pierced his back as Kyo fell to one knee and screamed in pain, the demon charged at Kyo as Kyo swung his blade without looking at the demon as the blood splatters onto Kyo's back as he continues to pant, the huge boulder that leads to where he came from slowly moves out of the way ::Kyo slowly stands up and starts to walk out sheathing his blood stoned sword, he walks outside seeing it was now sunset it felt as if he had in been in there for days as the old man smiles at Kyo as Kyo smiles back and then collapses on the ground from exhaustion::
