"I doubt my life is very exciting," she said. "I mean I was born in China, worked at small jobs a lot. My mother and father lived the interesting lives, they worked for some kind of organization that they won't tell me about."
"I would kill to have that life," Guilty said. She stared over the rim of her cup into the dark liquid, she and Changsou were at a small corner coffee shop. "In a nutshell my life is this: born - slash - created when a psycho tried to destroy an American city, travel the world destroying this odd syndicate that wanted to take over the world and now," she took a quick sip of coffee. "I'm pretty much saving the world like usual."
"I thought I could sense something about you," Changsou said. "You have this aura about you."
"So do you, Kessha Kistune."
Scrawny but lean, tall but slightly hunch over. This is something that the young man feared; the twelve angels were becoming active now.
Opening his mouth the creature revealed long fangs as the jaw unhinge itself,his fingers pop as they twisted themselves into long and narrow claws. His shoulders sagged than tense up as they expanded, his legs buckle while they shifted into something unearthly.
The skin grew charcoal grey as the eyes disappeared into nothingness.
"Dexter Straif," he spoke in such an unearthly tone. "You interference with our plans have lead to this."
Dexter remained silent as he held the hilt in a striking position, a small streak slid through the empty air. The creature shrugged back, but then relaxed and laughed.
"What you expect to do with a energy sword?" He said. "They are inferior to the shinken, a sword made from pure and compacted light will never cut me."
A form flickered under where the streak appeared, Dexter's eyes were silhouetted by his bangs. Sliding one foot back while shifting all of his weight to the other he let one hand drop to his side, like a blast from a cannon he was speeding towards the creature. The creature crossed it's arms than swung them in a wide arc releasing millions of small needle-like objects.
Dexter skid to a halt, he glanced over his shoulder at the creature.
"Amazing," the creature said. "You've manage to dodge all of my attacks, that's impressive but your sword failed to even get near me."
Dexter just shrugged as he lowered the blade, the creature felt his breath stop as his torso lean forward. The lower half stayed in place as his upper half slid away from it. The creature could see the truth now, it wasn't a energy blade but Muramasa itself!
"Computer," Dexter said as he allowed the sword to return to nothingness. "Now you can e-mail Kaiohte."
"Attention," Akumaru said as he walked into the room. Everyone in the room stood up, he eyed them carefully than nodded for them to at ease. "Okay, let's get down to busy; the yearly vacation for most of the Hakke elites is coming up but since everyone has been working very hard lately I've decided to add on a extra week. But in exchange when you guys get back we'll be going into over time, that's all"
Akumaru left while everyone was confused by what he said, why were they going to work harder than usual after vacation? Some assume it has something to do with a rival syndicate that has appeared lately creating some havoc lately or that mysterious heroine that has been destroying bases all around the world.
"You think the boss has finally found a way to stop her?" A young lady was over heard saying. "Maybe the Black Mafia has rebuilt?" Another said.
Whatever the reason they were getting an extra week, which was a plus.
Usagiko already had her plan mapped out; she was going to Japan to a hot spring resort and get drunk. Dee dee was coming with for the fun of it.
Nothing sinister about that, Usagiko thought as she walked towards her living quarters unaware of how wrong she was.
Buttercup had just finished chewing out Gemini, Princess was away on business but that didn't stop her from doing the same over the phone. She bet the others were getting the same treatment too, but right now she was more worried about saving her own skin.
"Alright," Buttercup said as she folded her arms. "Since you went through the trouble of breaking and entering and almost getting killed, what did you learn?"
"Well, she's with someone very dangerous and I think she gotten some kind of biological modification."
"That's all," Buttercup said. "Go to your room."
Gemini nodded as she walked away silently.
Shinken - this means live blade, in this case the creature means that a well crafted metal blade is suprior to the energy sword.
Sorry for the lack of updates, first the phone line breaks than I get the flu. Kind of sucks, doesn't it?
One the up side I have gotten the first Samurai Deeper Kyo DVD and started work on a special story.
What a plus!
