Blood& Tears

Kilik rose out of the water. His mind cleared of what had happened. Taki walked up to him. Kilik stumbled backwards.

"I thought you were good on you feet" Taki said mockingly.

Kilik looked at the woman she was laughing. The warrior got out of the water. Seung appeared, Kilik put on his sandals.

"So you heard Him too huh?" Kilik asked putting on his coat.

"Yah hey you're hurt you'd better let me see it," Seung said.

"I'm fine just a scratch"

Xianghun ran through the forest. She felt that someone else was near she stopped. A blade was to her back.

"Halt who are you?" The raspy voice asked.

"Mitsugri I'm just looking for Kilik," Chai Xianghun said.

"Kilik the one Nightmare's looking for?"

"What what's Nightmare want with him?"

"He needs his blood and he's a great fighter"

The two camped in the forest.

Maxi and Yunsung sat on the roof.

"Tomorrow I'll look for Kilik you'll look after Talim," Maxi said.

"No we gotta stay together"

"Hey I hope she's wrong you know about the army and Kilik killing us"

"I pray she's wrong Kiliks' a friend of mine I can't kill him"

Taki looked at Kilik he was frowning. Seung Mina slept peacefully. The Japanese fighter sat next to the former monk.

"What's up usually your ready to fight now you quiet and sad?" Taki asked.

"I…I Nightmare is…"

"What you can tell me," Taki said.

"My past is thrashing my thoughts it's like I know that if this continues I'll be just like him a crazed murder"

"Oh I see"

Taki stroked his cheek. Kilik caught her hand. She ran her fingers along his scar. She leaned in and kissed him. Their kissing continued Kilik begging to lay back, Taki lie on top of him the two held each other and fell asleep.

Xianghun awoke the next mourning Mitsugri had not slept he just meditated. She looked at the samurai he was concentrating hard about something.

In Mitsugri's mind:

Kilik is walking towards a castle Taki and Seung are fallowing him. Maxi is strolling around the grounds.

Reality

He and Xianghun walked along a path. She had dreamt about him again. He was covered in tattoos bleeding fighting another god like being.

Taki had been walking very close to Kilik. Seung had stopped, so did Kilik. The birds stopped, and the frogs grew quiet.

A man in white his face hidden by his hood emerged form behind the trees.

"Are you Kilik?"

"Yes"

"I am Zasalamel I was instated by the gods to find you"

"Why?" Kilik had his hands bo-staff.

"The lord of this land believes he is the true ruler of Soul Calibur, but you and I know that he is not fit for such a title your friends, Yunsung, Mitsugri, Talim, Maxi, Xianghun, Cassandra, Sophita, Taki, Seung, Ivy;

All dreamt about your fate"

Kilik was confused the large man stepped forward.

"But it is I not you who will defeat Nightmare"

The large hooded man swung his scythe Kilik blocked it with his staff. Taki threw daggers at the attacker. Seung aided Kilik in holding back the scythe.

Zasalamel quickly disappeared.

Xianghun walked through the snow covered ruins. Mitsugri led the way the stopped in front of a castle. Maxi heard footsteps and jumped down Mitsugri drew his sword. Maxi saw Xianghun; his eye is lit up at the site of her.

"Maxi!"

She yelled as she hugged the nun-chuck wielding fighter.

"Chai you uh filled out" Maxi said eyeing her breast.

"Watch yourself kid Kilik will kick your ass if you touch her.

Cassandra and Sophita stood at the foot of the church the sisters had slipped past the army. Sophita walked in the door Cassandra fallowed. The two found the woman know as Tira clad in a scantly green outfit sleeping. Sophita drew her sword and walked up stairs. Cassandra walked around a woman twirling an umbrella stood in the doorway.

"Ah the great Alexandra sisters oh looks like only the younger one is here"

'Who are you?"

"Setsuka, I looking for the samurai Mitsguri"

Cassandra looked at the woman dressed in a kimono her leg partly exposed. Cassandra knew Maxi would explode in his pants if he saw this woman. She drew a sword out of the bottom of the umbrella. Cassandra rushed the woman she stepped to the side and stabbed the young woman. Cassandra felt the blade penetrate her armor she fell instantly.

"Ah Siegfried will have his way with you" Setsuka said looking at the wounded sister.

Sophita ran up the spiral staircase she reached the top Ivy in a crown and a white scantly outfit sat on a throne.

"Ah you came I'll take care of you Siegfried is finishing remaking Soul Edge" Ivy said.

Ivy looked up the sounds of Nightmare creating an unholy demonic blade could be heard throughout the church.

Ivy swung her snake-like sword it cut Sophita's leg her blood hit the marble floor. The warrior woman blocked the wicked demonic queen's second attempt with her shield. Sophita ran forward and slashed at Ivy the two women continued fighting. They both felt a presence the stopped your heart. The demonic knight walked forward the ground shaking with each step. Sophita felt the demonic presence of the new blade. Nightmare impaled her with it, spun in a circle, and flung the girl across the room. He walked over to the bleeding girl the unholy weapon at her neck.

"Beg if you want to see your friends fail too!" Nightmare commanded.

"I'll never bow to you, you devil" Sophita yelled.

Nightmare picked up his weapon Sophita closed her eyes. Nightmare felt it the darkness in the heart of the girl. He stopped, and picked the girl up.

"I know you despise Kilik and the others for trying to destroy the weapon your father and your ancestors tried to protect"

Sophita stopped struggling he was right her father tried to stop anyone from reaching the three Soul Blades.

"Now tell me who is it that is leading the warriors?"

"I don't now"

"Aw very well Zasalamel will be pleased with you," Nightmare said.

Kilik sat at the bank of the river. Taki walked up behind, She was worried about him.

"Kilik?"

The Japanese ninja sat next to the quiet fighter.

"Is it true you saw me and Nightmare fighting?" Kilik asked.

"Yes" Taki said looking at him but he turned away.

A tear rolled down her cheek. Kilik turned to her and whipped it away with his thumb. He kissed her she allowed him to explore her mouth with his tongue. She pulled him closer to her.

Ok next champter will have a bit of well you now so just a warning. And Zasamel, Tria, Setsuka, are all real Soul calibur three caharaters
