part 5
Part 5
The sun burned through the shades of the once dark and solemn room. Trunks awoke not to the light but to the sound of a young woman knocking at the door. Though he lacked any emotion whatsoever Trunks somehow felt... annoyed and at the same time nervous. The annoying aspect of the woman named Terra was that she was shy and constantly smiled. Trunks had lost every reason to smile and so decided that smiling only took away energy so in a sense it was wasteful. But the stranger aspect of the woman was that she made him uneasy. She was definitely not a fighter but when Trunks first met her he had been on his guard.
Slowly, the young man arose from his bed and pulled his knee length trench coat from its place on the wall and returned into it. From outside his door he heard the young woman's calls and then her persistant knocking upon his door. Trunks with no sign of anger or loss of patience opened the door.
Terra smiled happily and then clapped her hands together.
"Mr. Briefs if you would enjoy it, our hotel offers breakfast down stairs in the main lobby." Trunks looked at the woman and nodded slowly. Terra slowly turned bright red as his eyes seemed to penetrate her own dark brown orbs. Immediately, she turned her gaze downward.
Trunks looked down the hall and saw that no one else had recieved this wake up call and looked at the young lady.
"What is the time?" He asked, his voice low in almost a whisper. Terra immediately looked at her watch and responded.
"Well its around ten...." she began but Trunks interrupted her.
"So, why wake me up?" He asked and Terra turned bright red.
"I'm so sorry, I just thought maybe you'd like something to eat, please forgive me." Terra turned quickly and started off.
"Where are you going?" Trunks asked loud enough for her to her. Terra turned on her heels and looked down at her feet.
"I didn't know you were still asleep, I'll let you rest, please forgive me." Terra stated. Trunks thought for a moment and decided that food was something he needed. After one more glance at Terra he spoke.
"Since you woke me up, you can go and retrieve my breakfast for me." Trunks spoke as Terra lifted her head. Trunks turned back into his room but stopped.
"Listen, make sure there is enough for ten people at least." Trunks closed his door and went back to his bed after closing the curtains to block any of the unwanted light out.
Terra had not even thought of questioning his request, she was just happy that he didn't explode in her face like so many of the other men whom she had taken a liking to and hasseled at the same time... or at least that's what they said she did.
Many times people told her how beautiful she looked but at the same time those people would also say how annoying and rude she could be. In a way, Terra couldn't help it. She wanted so badly to fall in love and aid her mate in anyway she could. Some women thought Terra to be mad, while men thought her to be overbearing.
On many different occasions she acted this way with certain male guests and each time her heart was torn to pieces. Though many of her friends who worked along side her told her that, she could never find love this way, Terra refused to give up.
After about ten minutes she returned to Trunks' room and knocked on the door. Slowly it opened and Trunks stood behind it. With a small flick of his neck he motioned Terra in. She smiled and at the same time turned dark crimson as she pulled the cart filled with varieties of foods into his room.
Terra bowed to Trunks after giving him her best smile and started out the door. Trunks looked at the cart and nodded.
"Obviously, this isn't your job..." Trunks stated as Terra stopped dead in her tracks, thinking she had displeased him. She turned around while she fumbled with her hands.
"Don't you work at the front desk?" Trunks asked receiving a nod from the young woman. He turned to her and nodded his head in a respectful manner.
"Consider yourself lucky....I rarely say this but .... thank you." Though the young man had trouble saying this to someone of such little importance, Terra beamed her best smile and bowed once again.
"As I said, if you need anything I'll be at your service no matter what." Terra smiled once again and left the room. Trunks looked back to his breakfast and started to eat.
Before he could finish, he felt a presence. In the blink of an eye Trunks had his sword drawn and pointed directly at Kuro's throat.
"Very good, still on your guard, my Saishuuheiki." Trunks sheathed his sword and sat back down. Kuro walked over in front of him and grinned.
"I see you have an admirer." He spoke but Trunks gave no emotion to the words, but answered bluntly.
"She is just living in a fantasy world, her earthly desires do not matter to me." he answered and Kuro grinned.
"Come now, you're a grown man, surely you have urges...." Kuro stopped and then shook his head.
"When you let go of those emotions you also let go of all desires, other than the desire of revenge.... but she is quite attractive, what would it hurt?" Kuro laughed as Trunks finished his meal.
"I have no desire to continue this conversation, if you do not have any thing pertaining to the time in which we strike, I care not..... But, there is one thing in which you can grab my attention with..." Trunks stated as he moved his eyes toward his teacher.
Kuro sighed and grinned.
"Very well, but I can only teach you the form and the steps that must be taken in order to fully perform the technique. Since you have almost no emotion trying such an attack is life threatening even for you." Kuro stated and Trunks nodded.
"Very well follow me." Kuro blasted out of the window and Trunks followed instantly. Using their enhanced speed they arrived at their destination in a few moments.
Kuro looked around and walked toward a tree and stood with his back towards it.
"Pay close attention, apprentice and stay back, for this is a move in which releases amazing power. It defeates all attacks even that of the Tenrai Zansatsu. The stance is very unique and very eccentric. This is the final move of the Mukizu-Jutsu." Kuro stated as he faced Trunks with his back to the large tree.
"The Sokushi Satsu or Instant Death Kill is a move that I must show you in slow motion, for if I used it's true speed you'd be killed, for this attack is too fast for even you to dodge." Kuro spoke and Trunks' eye momentarily widened. Kuro saw this and grinned.
"And you didn't believe me when I said how fast this attack was. It makes the speed needed for the Tenrai Zansatsu seem horribly slow. Now, the first stance needed is for the user to have his sword sheathed and his back to his opponent but at an angle so that the opponent can be seen over the left shoulder and the left foot needs to be closer to your opponent than the right also. Obviously the opponent will charge you if your back is to them so when they are within range that is when emotion takes control. The left foot is brought forward as if you were stepping away from the opponent. Quickly, slam that foot into the ground in front of you so that your body begins to pivot to face your opponent. Your right foot should be the foot you pivot upon. Now once you begin to spin, unsheath the sword with your right hand from the left side of your body and slice the victim in half. Don't worry if the sword doesn't hit your opponent, the powerful force that was created from the speed of the attack will wipe all life out in the vicinity instantly. Nothing near the attack shall survive. This force explodes outward from all directions of your body, though I don't know the mechanics on why it does such a thing, I do know that the user is somehow encased in a 'shell' like energy while everything else is wiped out around him." Slowly, Kuro performed the move and Trunks watched.
Though emotion was foreign to him his hand was shaking. To him this attack was unreal, it defied all logical thinking and since logic was all he had left, he in some ways feared it, though not on his face but physically. This display of emotion lasted only a few seconds before Trunks regained control realizing that only the weak show such feelings. Kuro smiled and then went to Trunks.
"I'll let you return to you're lady now, Romeo." Kuro grinned as Trunks lifted into the sky.
"The Sokushi Satsu... such power.... but Kuro said that he didn't know how it all worked. That must mean someone else taught him..." Trunks looked down at the hotel as he arrived and floated into his window.
"But what kind of being could have created such a technique, if Kuro didn't then who did?" Trunks thought as once again the eager young woman knocked.
Trunks looked to the door and then to his sword at his side and finally to the sky outside.
"Maybe I'll ask him about it later." Trunks decided as he went to the door once again.
So was that good? I hope you like it so far, next installment- part 6: Shattering the Cold. Keep the reviews coming and I promise to get part 6 out by this saturday at the latest!
