Prologue
It's now after the battle between Kyo and Akira for Kyo's body. It's now after the battle with Kyo and Kyoshiro for the title of the strongest. Kyo came out victorous in both of his battles and Kyoshiro and Akira both came out dead. Yuya still by Kyo's side as his servant, Yukimura still waiting for the opportunity to take Kyo on, Benitora still falling head over heels for Yuya, Okuni dead from a sacrifice made so Kyo could return to his body, Sasuke and Saizo still working for Yukimura and protecting him when they can, Sakuya still hidden looking up at the stars.
It's been a week since Kyo defeated Kyoshiro. Kyo, Yuya, Benitora, and Yukimura sit on the floor of a room at an inn in the town of Kyoto. They decided after the battle that they would stay for awhile, they were needed no where else at that moment.
Kyo sat back against one of the walls, he was still contemplating on what Akira had said just before he died.
"You will never be the strongest, you may defeat me and Kyoshiro, but you will never defeat the dragon." Akira had said then abruptly stopped talking for he had bled to death from taking a stab in the stomache.
Kyo had told nobody of this imformation, because everyone thought that now because Kyoshiro was dead that Kyo was the strongest of them all. But only he knew he wasn't, he knew Akira was not lying when he had said it.
It was now midnight, and everyone had fallen asleep, but not Kyo. No he sat up still thinking and wanting to know who this "Dragon" person was. How strong was he? Could he defeat him? Where is he now?
Little did Kyo know that he wasn't alone, and that his answers would soon be answered...
