Okay first off, I don't own any of these characters. They all belong to Capcom so don't think I made any of these characters up. Now on to the story.

Chapter five: The Forgotten.

Ibuki: "Sensei! SENSEI!!!!!"

Sensei: "Ibuki! You're back. What are you doing here? All I asked you to rest and meditate in the forest to practice your state of tranquility."

Ibuki: "I know I know but I couldn't help but see you again sensei! You're so wonderful... and good looking... and strong... and... forgiving...."

Sensei: "You didn't meditate today... DID YOU."

Ibuki looking down at the floor with her feet together and her hands behind her back: "No.... But I have a good reason!"

Sensei: "And what's that?"

Ibuki: "I brought someone who could really use your help."

Sensei: "Really... who's that?"

Ibuki: "I don't know his name or where he's from but all I know is that he's got this weird looking sword that I didn't even wanna bother asking about and he wears this strange uniform that kinda looks like ninjitsu gear."

Sensei: "Weird looking sword... Strange uniform.... Bring him to me. I'll see what I can do."

I walked slowly toward the dojo as I saw Ibuki ran straight for me. She quickly grabbed my wrist and practically dragged me forward almost making me trip. She stopped in front of a man who seemed like the person in charge of the place. He bowed to me and began speaking politely to me.

Sensei: "So you're the fellow who Ibuki was talking about. She definitely described you well."

"Really? What did she happen to say about me?"

Sensei: "She said you were weird looking."

Ibuki nervously smiled at me and took a step back behind the man.

Sensei: "You don't look like your one of the Shintao men."

"Shintao?"

Sensei: "The Shintao clan is a group of renegade ninjas out here trying to persistently mark their territory as well as steal and disrupt our dojo. They are quite bothersome."

"I see."

Sensei: "Please, come with me. The sun seems to be setting. We will talk more over some dinner."

Ibuki: "DINNER?! Woo hoo!"

She ran off to the inside right section of the dojo which seemed to be the eating area with tables and such.

"Well I am rather hungry. Actually to be honest, I am very hungry."

Sensei chuckling briefly: "Come my boy. Let us eat."

"Oh by the way uh "sensei" is it? What is your name? I would rather call you by your right formal title out of respect for letting me eat here."

Sensei: "How well mannered of you to ask. As for my name, you can call me Master Murakamo"

I opened my eyes wide in sudden shock. MURAKAMO?! As I thought to myself. I... I know that name. That word. A pain drilled into my head and I collapsed onto my knees.

Master Murakamo: "Are you alright?!"

I couldn't stop latching my hands onto my head. The pain was drilling into me. I felt like my head was being broken up. Yet it turned out to be just another flashback.

Takaru: "Is that all you got?!"

Unknown Person: "Yeah we'll see!"

Two fighters that looked like a dramatic battle going at it in what seems to be a Sparring session,

Takaru: "Kurae!!!" (In Japanese, "Kurae" is a word when in a fight or a battle that closely relates to the expression "Take this!" or "Eat this!")

Takaru ran toward the unknown fighter with a side swiping swing of his Sword but the Unknown fighter ended up dodging it and counterattacking from the side.

Unknown Person: "I don't think so!"

Takaru: "Huh?!"

Unknown Person: "Ame No Murakamo!" (Ame No Murakamo directly translates into the phrase "Rain of Gathering Clouds". It is an Advancing Full Body Spin Slash moving at incredible and nearly insane speeds. Anyone who has played perhaps MVC1 or 2 can visually recall this move rather easily.)

Takaru: "Ugh...."

Takaru falls down to his knees. And breathes heavily. The unknown fighter stands there looking at the floor.

Takaru breathing heavily: "What... was that all about."

Unknown Person: "I can't stand it no more."

Takaru: "What?"

Unknown Person: "I was supposed to be in Mongolia lively peacefully and I'm back here. Fighting for the sake of the world. Yet again..."

"AHHH!!!!!!"

I clench my hand together to stop the pain but then it sudden goes away in a tense heart beat. I collapse unto the floor.

Master Murakamo: "Ibuki get over here quick!"

Ibuki drops her plate and runs over to quickly holster my body on her shoulder. Both carried me to Ibuki's room to lie down. I was sweating and breathing heavily. I started to black out and faint. I slowly closed my eyes.

Master Murakamo: "I'll go get some water!"

Ibuki started to tear.

Ibuki: "Wake up! Wake up!"

Ibuki: "Stop being so mean to me and wake up. I'm... sorry."

Ibuki started crying with her hands covering her eyes. Not know what happened or what was going on, she cried with a sudden feeling of guilt.

Ibuki: "I'm sorry I called you weird looking and I'm sorry if I made fun of you. Please wake up I'll be nice I promise...."

It was no hope for I had passed out from the pain. Little did I know that Ibuki planned to stay there all day and night to see if I woke up or not trying not to cry. I really felt like I was dying but I also felt like I was reminiscing something. A lost forgotten feeling. Something that I had put away for so many years. Was it was love? Passion perhaps? Or was it fear? No wait... ahh yes, I remembered then. As I began to doze off and sleep, I truly felt it then. That wonderful feeling.

....Freedom....

To be continued.
