Huin: The Ruin of Destruction. (Part 1)

The trio entered what was supposed to be Huin: The city of hope. What they saw however was Huin: The ruin of destruction. Everywhere was up in ruins. As far as the eye can see. Nobody seemed to be alive either. Just miles and miles of endless rubble. The area also smelled like blood.

Fuu gasped looking around. She remembered coming here a long time ago with her family. This would always be a town to trade items or weapons. Like an amusement town. Now it was just pure garbage.

"Damn...and I just got the smell of blood off me," Mugen said spitting on the ground, "Now I got I smell this? Let's hurry and get the hell outta here."

"Have some respect," Jin said walking over to the rubble, "We do not know what happened here. Somebody must have attacked a little while ago. It smells like smoke and blood."

"I can't believe this..." Fuu sighed looking around, "I just can't believe it."

Mugen patted her on the shoulder, "Hey there isn't anything we could do about it, right? Lets just pass through. I'm pretty sure the Yakuza leader in this town is dead."

She turned around and smiled at him. She was surprised to see him smile back. Jin smiled a little then walked ahead of them. It was only a matter of time before Mugen completely changed into someone else.

Mugen bent down a little then kissed Fuu. She was a little embarrassed to be kissed do deeply like this outside, but she loved it all the same when Mugen deepened the kiss even more with his tongue. She shivered in delight when she felt his hand travel all over her body from inside her Kimono.

Before this went any further she pushed against him. He groaned then continued walking with Jin, "Good idea, Fuu. I would of done you right there."

She sighed and followed him, "Might not be such a bad idea..."

As they continued traveling through Huin, they noticed that the closer they got to the end of the city, the thicker the smell of blood and the more sounds they heard. They quickened their pace for a while so they could get out of Huin quicker.

"Yo!"

They heard the voice come from behind them. Mugen was the first to turn around. A few feet away from them stood some kid. He looked about 15 years old. He had black spiked hair and a white head band. He had on a little black un-buttoned shirt that was showing his bare chest, and baggy black jeans. He had a bamboo stick carved in the shape of a sword leaning against his shoulder. He was smirking with his teeth showing.

Mugen scoffed, "Tch, its just a kid. Let's keep going."

"Why don't you say that to my face, Mugen?" The kid said spitting out his gum, "Since I'm just a kid you should have no problem defeating me in battle."

"Wait, are you with the Yakuza?" Jin said standing in front of Mugen.

The kid spun the bamboo sword around, "Yeah. I'm with the Otaki group. The name is Kotaro. The Kotaro who is gonna beat you both to a bloody pulp."

Mugen grinned unsheathing his sword, "So I take it you run this town to the ground, huh? You know it seems every day I'm messing with my policy. I usually never hit girls but I killed one. I never fall in love but I did. And now I'm going to kill a kid?"

"Oh don't worry about that last one," Kotaro said getting in his very cool looking battle stance, "Because this 'kid' is going to kill you. Come on! One at a time!"

Mugen said no more as he charged towards Kotaro who just stood there with a smirk on his face. Mugen attacked with a downwards slash. Problem was that where he stood, Kotaro wasn't there. He quickly spun around to see him talking to Fuu.

"You know you're pretty cute," Kotaro said grinning at Fuu, "After this fight I'll take you for myself!"

"In your damn dreams!" Mugen said trying to attack once more. Kotaro sighed as he spun around quickly slashing Mugen right in the stomach. He staggered for a bit only to be slashed once more in the chest. Kotaro continued to spun and slash until he got a little dizzy. By that time Mugen had around 60 little red marks all over his body. They weren't bleeding but they hurt like hell.

Mugen tried to move but he couldn't. The pain was holding him back. Kotaro calmly walked over to him and held the bamboo sword up. He unsheathed the true sword from the bamboo sword sheath, "Nice trick huh? It's like I got two swords. Jin will tell you all about it when he dies as well."

Mugen growled then spun around tripping Kotaro. He was caught off guard so he fell, leaving him open to an attack for a split second. Mugen nailed him right in the face with his geta.

Before Kotaro could stop kidding on the ground Mugen ran up to him then attacked once more with a downward slash. Before the blade could reach Kotaro, he grabbed the bamboo sword and drove it through Mugen's stomach.

Mugen hissed in pain as he fell back, "F-Fuck! Fuck this!" He said taking it out. The wound in his stomach was huge as hell. He was losing lots of blood fast, "This always happens! Will you Yakuza find a new trick?"

Kotaro glared at him, "My moves are all mine. That one was new. Don't ever hit this pretty face." Fuu was about to say something when Kotaro stopped her, "Move and I'll kill him right here and now. I want to prolong his suffering."

Jin chuckled, "Mugen won't die so easily. He's been in worse situations then this. Of course you are just toying with him. Your true power must be immense, Kotaro. I look forward to watching you in combat. Please continue."

Mugen growled, "Damn it Jin! Shut up Will ya! I'm tryin' my best here!"

Kotaro looked surprised, "Is this your best? I'm not even fighting you! Damn your weak as hell and your fighting skills are all over the place. Where did you study? A dark alley?"

Jin smiled a little, "That's what I said..."

"Ke-yah!" Kotaro said slashing Mugen repeatedly with his sword. Blood was flying everywhere with each slash. Soon Mugen fell to the ground, and Kotaro turned to Jin, "Your turn!" He ran towards Jin then tried an attack.

A loud clash could be heard. Jin held Kotaro back with his sword; a calm expression over his face. It pissed Kotaro off. No way was some idiot going to act tough around him. That was his job. Kotaro jumped back and unsheathed his second sword, "Your dead!"

Jin grunted as he dodged many of Kotaro's attacks. Every once in a while Kotaro would slash off a piece of Jin's gi, but no flesh was sliced off. Well not Jin's anyway. Jin moved to the side when Kotaro tried a hard attack. Both swords bounced off the ground. Kotaro cursed and drew them back, "Tch. Nice moves old man, but how am I going to kill you if you keep moving? I don't think we're both on the same page here."

"And Neither are we," Said Mugen as he strained to stand up. He heard Kotaro laugh, "Wh-Whats so damn funny?"

Kotaro sighed making sure his hair was perfect, "You both don't know when to quit." He ran passed the two. Right before he made his mistake he kicked Jin and Mugen in the ankles then ran off, "Its a Delay attack!" He said disappearing from their view.

They didn't bother to try and catch Kotaro. They would see him again, although neither of them knew what a delay attack was, it couldn't be that bad if Kotaro were to say it out loud like that.. Mugen sighed and fell back, "Fuck that kid! Him and his stupid spiky hair!"

Jin sighed sitting down "He was very powerful for his age. He tricked us with the bamboo sword...I feel so stupid."

Mugen sat up and spat out some blood, "You feel stupid? He sliced the crap outta me! I swear, when I see hat kid again, I'm going to torture him until he dies. I could care how old he is!"

Fuu shook her head and knelt by him, "Well before that happens, I need to get you two fixed up. Jin shouldn't been fighting in the first place. He's very lucky his wounds didn't re open. And you, I don't even know what to say about these. Its best to leave them alone and just stop the bleeding."

"Yeah, whatever." He said laying back once more, "Geez, why is it that every time we fight, I get the crazy ass wounds, and Jin doesn't feel pain at all."

"Its just the way things work out in the end," Fuu said cleaning up the blood seeping from his wounds, "Now let's get out of this town. Its really creepy. Like anything could pop out at any moment. I don't like it at all."

Mugen smirked, "Don't worry, I'm here. I won't let any ghosts get to your hot body. Just mark my words."

Fuu sighed, "Did...you really have to say it like that?"

Jin groaned, "Well Huin doesn't end for quite a while. Maybe we should find some sort of shelter. The entire town can't be completely destroyed. Perhaps a small cave or a run down Inn."

"Whatever, man..." Mugen said as he stood up, "I just need a nice soft bed."

Fuu blushed, "Wh-What?"

He smirked, "Now who's thinking about sex. I just needed a soft bed to sleep...but...if you want to, then I have no objections, you know? Heheheh." He grabbed Fuu and kissed her, teasingly. He grinned then walked off with Jin, making Fuu whine in displeasure.

"Why did you do that if you...Grrrr..."

Mugen grunted as he pushed a few rocks out of the way. They found a house that seemed still intact. All that was in the way were a few loose boards. It was completely deserted, much like the rest of the town, but it seemed to be well enough to keep the trio safe for a few days. Long enough for them to find the quickest route out of Huin anyway.

Mugen sighed in relief as he lay down on the upstairs futon. He was so tired, and his body was aching from his earlier wounds. Jin rested in the downstairs whatever, and Fuu was staring out the window. Looking at all the rubble. She sighed, "What could of happened here? What really could of happened? The Yakuza couldn't do this alone...it must of been a war..."

"I don't really give a damn." Mugen said simply.

"M-Mugen? How could you say something like that?"

He didn't even bother opening his eyes, "What happened to this city has nothing to do with us at all. What happened has happened. It doesn't concern me anymore."

She stared at him for a few seconds, "Any...more?" She knelt by him, "You were here before?"

He nodded slowly, "Yeah, I was. Its been a very loong time..." He grinned then kissed her, "But that doesn't matter anymore does. It. There's a penis with your name written all over it-agh!"

Fuu growled with anger, "You ruined the mood, Mugen! You are so dirty! I can't believe you!"

He chuckled then brought her down on his lap, "I was just kidding. Man, your just too sensitive for your own good." He slipped his hands under her Kimono, making Fuu blush and move towards him.
