I don't own any RK characters I just write things about their lives.

Hitokiri Battousai

Here you are stalking through the night

Your eyes are finely tuned to the darkness, you need no light.

You hunt down your victims so quick and silent

They never see it coming, they cannot fight it.

You wield your sword proudly as you take their lives

Knowing within your heart that they will not survive.

Their fresh, hot blood runs down your face and hair

It doesn't matter to you, you no longer care.

No longer do you seem like a human being

But as a monster with no true meaning.

You walk swiftly and silently through the night

You senses are fully alert, you are ready to fight.

People see your face and run in fear

You don't care, you no longer hold their opinions near.

You once trusted only a few

Now you trust no one since you've lost all you knew.

The one you loved and held in your heart is gone

Taken away from you by your blade as it was drawn.

Her blood now rests on your hands, you heart has turned into an empty space

The only reminder of her now is the scar on your face.

You look at her grave and a single tear falls from your golden eyes

Turned emotionless and cold from years of lies.

You are brutal, strong, fierce and cruel

Your enemies fight you only if they are a fool.

Your emotion is gone, for the ones you trusted have betrayed you

They made you part of their plan, part of their twisted sinew.

After so much death you realize what you have done

You should've had compassion and mercy although you had none.

You lay down the sword that has taken so many lives and shed so much blood

You have vowed to never again cause the rain of blood which used to fall, not as a rain, but more as a flood.

You've become a gentle wanderer with a heart pure and true with only your sword and instincts to guide you.

You've sworn to repent for all that you've done

You will never again take another life, never, not one.

You wander alone, sad and lonely

You know that you will die repenting but you do so gladly.

You try to hide who you really are

But people know you by your scar.

You try to make your past only a memory

To make it go away, to destroy it completely.

Deep down you know who you really are

You cannot hide the truth, it is never that far.

You were once a manslayer through and through

The one who caused the rain to bleed was you.

You are who you are, that you cannot deny

You will remain the same until the day you die.

You cannot hide the truth about your past, you cannot lie

Until the day you die you are the man feared by all, you are
