Chapter four: Water torture

AN: Hey! Here is more! I don't own Soul Calibur

Mitsurugi had just walked into the emperor's office. The office was elegant and had even a miniature garden filled with bonsai trees. The emperor sat calmly at his desk. His arms crossed and his face straight he rarely blinked but when he did they were long slow blinks. His mouth only opened halfway and he spoke rather slowly to Mitsurugi.

"How may I help you samurai?" asked the Emperor. "Your majesty I ask that our army will help a group of people in great need." Asked Mitsurugi. "Who are these people and why should we help them?" asked the Emperor leaning in a bit as though if he did so Mitsurugi would talk faster or louder.

"The Lizard people of Greece they are in grave danger." Answered Mitsurugi. The Emperor squirmed in his seat a bead of sweat rolled down his face. One of his servants quickly came and dabbed it off his face with a towel. "The Lizard people you say? Why should we help those barbarians?" asked the Emperor his speech had speed up and his blinking became more rapid he also began to rub his hands. "Taki a ninja has mated with one of the Lizard people Lizard man I think you know who I am talking about." Said Mitsurugi.

"Ah, yes the merchant. He has bought many pounds of gun powder it's rumored however that he hid a little stash somewhere in the Greek mountains." Informed the Emperor. "Will you help?" asked Mitsurugi. "Of course not Mitsurugi you are fool for even considering this thought." Spat the Emperor. "But your majesty!" Mitsurugi then rose up a bit of anger in his face. "Do you dare to challenge my authority? Samurai I would have expected much more. You must be punished for your ignorance! Guards seize him and place him in the torture chamber. Don't kill him just give him the water torture." Ordered the Emperor.

Mitsurugi was dragged off into a dark room. There they shaved him bald and then from a height dropped little drops of ice cold water onto his head in the exact same spot. Mitsurugi began to cry in pain the water began to feel like a knife jutting through his head. After an hour of this torture Mitsurugi was put back into the Emperor's office.

The Emperor held in his hand a rifle. "You see this weapon Mitsurugi? This weapon will end the Samurai. Since the very first shot you samurai knew you were doomed. Your garbage! Worthless! Now leave my sight!" barked the Emperor. Mitsurugi began to walk out the door stopped and turned. "If you will not help I will find other who will." Stated Mitsurugi. With that he exited. The Emperor sat back down at his desk and stared blankly into space he was calm again his blinking slow and his breathing soft. But his heart raced for though he had many guards he feared the sword of Mitsurugi.
