Chapter 2 - Resurrection
I finally gathered the nerve to remove the gag from my mouth as Kasumi started to slyly make her way to the dead squad leader.
"So I guess the whole 'I can't fight thing' was to throw them off?" I had my beliefs on Kasumi's earlier actions. Her brown eyes turning red, the certain attitude change from scared to cocky, and the deceitful smile Kasumi was never known for. I just refused to believe my own hypothesis.
Then at that, Kasumi completely ignored me. She pulled the knife out of the dead body, claiming it for her own, then she walked past me as if I wasn't even in her presence.
"I'm talking to you. What just happened back there?"
She just looked back at me with those same red eyes, threw up her head, scoffed and replied. "Whatever." Then turned and began to make her way to the camp.
My fish still laid near the open fire as I saw the shinobi pick up the warm raw fish and claimed it as her own. My eyes popped open in astonishment. Kasumi has made her self comfortable near my fire, eating my food, even after I forcefully made it clear that she was not welcome to my morsels. How dare does a shinobi look at me in such a manner and shows that amount of disrespect while in my presence?
I ran to grab my sword and pointed it in her direction. "You will respect me." I demanded.
She turned and gave me a taunthing smile. "Or what?" She rhetorically asked. "You're going to kill me?" She rhetorically asked again with that same smile. For some reason, she had a sudden obsession to be sarcastic. "Remove your mask. I want to see the true weakling that couldn't protect his own life."
I was reluctant at first, but slowly obliged, removing the mask off of my face.
Kasumi snickered when she saw my angered look piercing into her. "And what is your name, weakling?"
I sneered, "Ryokai, the same weakling that saved your life when you left yourself vulnerable to the Mizu Doragon."
She laughed at me then mockingly spoke, "Ryokai, the same weakling that couldn't protect himself and a woman in despair." She said taking another huge bite out of my fish. After she swallowed she stated, "Please don't tell me you want to fight someone that killed the people you couldn't defeat." Then she turned her body to me and stated. "After that performance, I didn't even break a sweat. Do you honestly think you can defeat me?"
I lowered my sword. What could I say? She was right. I couldn't defeat the six ninjas and yet she took them on as if they were nothing but a joke to her. I was beginning to understand why she has been too hard to catch after so long of a hunt.
Kasumi took notice to my lowered sword. "That's what I thought." She boastingly said as she dropped boned remains of my food, stood, and turned to make her way through the forest.
"Wait, where are you going?" I asked as I began to chase after her.
"Just go home, weakling." She continued to taunt me.
Hey, just because I couldn't defeat six ninjas at one time doesn't make me a weakling, does it? If you think I'm offended that a female is stronger than me, then you're wrong. Do you know how many powerful kinochis are out there having their way with the male ninjas? If a kinochi joins a clan, do not be surprised if she turns out to be the best. It's almost natural for their gender.
I grabbed her by her arm. "I'm not a weakling." I said. Woman or not, I wasn't going to let anyone talk about me that way. Especially a traitor.
Kasumi then gave me a cold stare. "I said, 'Go home'."
Again, she continues with her rants. Well, two can play that game. I gave her a cold stare back. "No."
She then pulled out the knife and put the point to my chest. "Now will you listen?"
Believe it or not, but I wasn't scared. I knew this was only a test and if she was to stab, well, as I said earlier, ninjas are not afraid of death. "No."
Kasumi stared at me for a second observing my facial expression to see if I was bluffing. Then a smile came across her face, this time not of deceit. "Maybe you're not pathetic after all. Still a weakling, but not pathetic." She said as she put away the knife, sparing my life. She turned and began walking through the forest again.
"Where are you going?" I asked again.
"I don't know."
"So you're walking in the forest in the middle of the night with no direction?"
"Yes."
"What are you hoping to find?"
"I don't know."
She still spoke as if she was partially ignoring me. It was becoming very annoying at this point. It was as if she took control when I had the "Master" title in my hand.
Then she looked at me. "Do you know where a lake is at?"
"Maybe. If you tell me what's going on."
She snickered. "You wouldn't understand." We stood in silence waiting for the other to speak. Then she broke the silence. "Fine, I'll find it myself." She turned to leave again (in the opposite direction of the nearby lake for that matter).
"Wait, okay," I reluctantly said. "I'll show you." I mean, I liked seeing the female run around lost, too stubborn and obnoxious to admit she needs help. Kasumi was beginning to remind me a lot of her.
I led her to the lake where I had fished earlier and she commenced to wash her face. For once she decided to make conversation.
"You gave me these rags?" Referring to the clothes I dressed her in.
"Yes. I found you naked in the middle of the forest. I had to dress you in something."
"Next time pick something more appropriate."
God, she was getting more and more annoying by the minute. "Next time, I'll just let you walk around naked." Then I started to blab as she washed her face and looked at her reflection in the water. "You should be appreciative when someone helps you out. I could've left you for dead if it wasn't for…"
She interrupted me when she punched the water. Then she began to sob. What's going on now? Is she going insane?
"What's wrong?"
She wiped her tears, turned away from me and began walking again. "Nothing."
Then I realized I was being a bit too nice to the runaway shinobi. She may have saved my life, but it was only in return of me saving hers, and that was no reason for her to treat me the way she was. I, then, practically yelled. "Just talk to me, Kasumi!"
Kasumi quickly turned with her knife in hand and threw it in my direction. My instinct kicked in as I caught the knife by its handle, preventing it from piercing into my face. I wasn't shocked at the fact my life was almost ended by the knife. I was shocked that it was Kasumi attacked me.
"Don't you ever call me that name!" She yelled.
That was it. That confirmed everything. I figured out what was going on. I wasn't talking to Kasumi and that wasn't Kasumi that killed those ninjas back there. That's why her eyes are red. That's why she fought in the brutal way that she did. That explains her cockiness and over-confidence. That explained why she punched at the reflection in the water. I knew who I was talking to; I just didn't want to admit it to myself.
"Ayane?"
The girl turned away and proceeded her sobbing. She didn't have to answer. Her tears were enough. Somehow, Ayane was in Kasumi's body. I walked up to her; I wanted to place my hands on her shoulders to comfort her, but I knew the type of person Ayane was, even in her time of need she didn't want to have anything to do with anyone.
"How did this happen?" I asked.
She continued to sob but eventually shrugged. She didn't know what happened to her either, just like Kasumi.
"How do you know your name?" I remembered how Kasumi couldn't remember anything. Surprisingly, this time, Ayane was ready to talk.
She turned to me, wiping the tears from her eyes and shrugging her shoulders. "I don't know." She said. "All I remember is my name and how to fight." She sniffed back more tears. "And that I hate the owner of this body." Her voice trembled. "I don't know why I hate her."
I could've given her the full scoop at that time on who Kasumi was, but I didn't feel it was appropriate. I wanted to hold Ayane and let her know everything was going to be okay, but I knew she wasn't the type to take affection from anyone. As annoying and obnoxious as she was earlier, I still had to respect the type of person she was. I felt her sadness grow within my own body.
"Don't worry we'll figure something out." I said, even though I had no idea where to begin. I mean, Ayane in Kasumi's body? I was struck in awe. Who would believe something like that could happen to another person.
"You'll have to start by heading back to the village." A voice said from within the forest.
Ayane and I both looked to see a woman emerged dressed in a silk kimono. She had long black hair that glided down to her back.
Ayane quickly composed herself. "Who are you?" She spoke in her usual demanding tone.
I answered for the mystery woman. "Hiroshi." I knew exactly who the female was. One of Ayame's followers. They are said to be the best kinochis but all they do is lounge around all day with no responsibilities except to protect Ayame. I just had no idea what she was doing out here, so justly, I asked. "What do you want?"
Ayame's followers always spoke with a calm and pleasant smile. That's what irritated me. They wanted to believe everything in the world was calm, peaceful, and pleasant. Well, they're not the ones risking their lives everyday for the better of the clan. "Hayate asked me to keep an eye on you." She said. "Made sure I cleaned up any mess that you made."
I was appalled. Hayate sent someone to watch over me? He didn't believe I could get the job done? Then why did he send me in the first place?
"We have all under control here."
"Oh really?" She asked as she made her way closer to us. The way she walked made it seems as if she glided her way to us. "Ayane's soul is trapped in Kasumi's body while the Mugen-Tenshin clan believes that Ayane was murdered."
Ayane intervened. "Murdered? By who?"
Hiroshi continued. "By the one of the body you possess now."
Ayane laughed. "Ha! I had to save her to make sure she didn't kill the both of us earlier."
"If you are referring to your battle with the ninjas, then I must agree. You are correct. But what you fail to realize is that Kasumi was vulnerable." She continued to explain. "She remembered nothing of herself, her past, or her skills. Fortunately, you were granted the knowledge of what you needed to remember for survival. That is why your soul intervened and removed Kasumi from possession."
Then I spoke. "You sound like you have some useful information."
She nodded. "True, but for the sake of our victim, I cannot reveal too much information all at once."
That made sense. We wouldn't want Ayane going mad and doing something to intentionally harm Kasumi's body and in turn herself, as well.
"So what can you tell us?"
Hiroshi smiled at me. "Follow me."
Ayane gave me a look of concern. I, too, wasn't sure of what was going on, but this is information that we need to figure out exactly what in the world was going on. Hiroshi took us on a hike that laste for hours. Even the sun was beginning to peak over the horizon as ifs radiance gave bright colors to the green forest. She eventually led us to an open meadow not too much further and just a bit outside of the forest.
"Where are we?" I asked.
Hiroshi explained. "You are at the location where Kasumi and Ayane were about to have their final beautiful. Beautiful, isn't it?" She asked taking in the lovely scenery of the meadow filled with grass and multi-colored flowers. "To think that all of nature recuperated just minutes after the incident.
"Incident? What incident?" Ayane asked.
Hiroshi gave Ayane a smile. "Just before the brink of the battle, you two were hit by a large and summoned meteor."
"Summoned?" I asked.
Hiroshi nodded. "This meteor was no accident. If it was an accident, the meadow would be of nothing but burns, ash, and waste as it was when the meteor first struck into the ground. In only a matter of minutes this meadow was restored with the meteor buried deep beneath the earth."
"This was someone's plan?"
"An intent not to kill. That is why Kasumi and Ayane are still alive now."
"If not to kill, then what?"
"Who knows?" Hiroshi shrugged with that same smile. "When the meteor hit, it carried Ayane's body to Mugen-Tenshin territory." Hiroshi looked at me. "You were meant to find her body." Then she looked at Ayane. "Your soul was brought to Kasumi's body for a reason."
"What reason?" Ayane finally spoke.
"I'm not for sure of the reason or who is behind the plot."
Then I asked. "Does the Elders know of this?"
"Not yet. I wanted to confirm what I believed was correct." Then she stared into Ayane's red eyes embedded in Kasumi's body. "Now that I see that I am, we must head back to the village immediately." She paused. "Our only remedy for this symptom is to recover Ayane's body from the Garden of Resting and undo the spell."
"It may be Ayane, but they'll only see Kasumi. We both know the clan won't accept this with open arms." I spoke.
"Exactly, this is why we must sneak her in."
"Sneak?" Ayane said. "I prefer the front door method." She then pulled her knife. "Those who stand in my way will only die by this blade."
Hiroshi gave a pleasant laugh. "Foolish Ayane. You're still the same as I remembered you."
"Is that a compliment?" She replied with a question.
"First, you speak of killing off an entire clan with countless number of ninjas." She continued. "And even if you are so lucky to pull off such a victory, could you imagine the amount of friends and family you would be killing that have helped in raising you for so many years?"
Ayane stayed quiet but her lip curled in anger.
Hiroshi then finished. "Come we must hurry to the village."
Hiroshi led the way to the village. I stood behind following along with Ayane. Of course, I knew my way back, but I felt, regardless if Ayane didn't want to admit, she needed a companion right now. Just someone to walk side-by-side with her. We finally made out of Mizu-Doragon's territory. I couldn't have been more pleased. What did make me wonder is where they were if they weren't patrolling their own territory? I decided not to worry about it. A ninja must tend to his own missions. That's how Kasumi got herself in the mess she's in.
"I don't trust her." Ayane said interrupting my thoughts.
In fact, she didn't even whisper for Hiroshi to not hear. She spoke loudly enough, probably wanting to initiate a confrontation with Ayame's follower. Fortunately, Hiroshi only kept her eyes forward as if she was ignoring her; making her way through the trees to get back to Mugen-Tenshin territory.
"Why not?" I whispered. Hiroshi is a powerful person within the clan. I didn't want her to hear me and I'm subjected to whatever punishment the Elders would have in mind.
"She knows too much. And it seems she's keeping certain information from me."
"You can't see she's helping us?"
"Don't give me that. I know you don't like her as much as I don't. I can see it in your eyes."
Now why would she say that for her to hear? No matter how true it is. Okay, it's not that I don't trust her, I just don't like how we do all the fighting and they sit around doing nothing, when they are "so-called" the strongest.
"I never said that." I whispered a bit louder, trying to play off being secret while at the same time hoping Hiroshi would hear me defend myself and her honor.
"Whatever. Why does the Mugen-Tenshin hate Kasumi?"
I was hesitant at first, I even looked to the back of Hiroshi's head for some type of approval before revealing the information to her, "Several years ago, she betrayed her clan after her brother was injured. Against the orders of the Elders, she took the mission as her own and set off to avenge him."
"Her brother died?"
I shook my head. "No just severely injured after an intrusion attack." I looked to her. "I don't know too much of the details, but I was said to be a lone ninja. Probably a former clan member that took on half of the Mugen Tenshin force."
"A lone ninja?" Ayane gave a bit of a chuckle. "Is your entire clan full of weaklings?"
I gave her a cold stare. "You were one of the ninjas he took out."
Ayane stayed quiet at that remark. I probably shouldn't have told her that, but if she's bold enough to call the clan "weaklings" then she's bold enough to hear that she was one of those "weaklings".
"What happened afterwards?" She broke the silence. "Was she successful?"
"She's still alive, isn't she?" I replied.
"How was she able to defeat the intruder and I wasn't? I know she isn't stronger than me."
I didn't know how to answer the question. Ayane did bring up a good point. From what I know, she has trained a lot more along the sides of some of the greatest fighters, but in actuality who was stronger, Kasumi or Ayane? "I don't know." That's all I could say.
"You said she went to avenge her brother. What can you tell me about him?"
Hiroshi was still keeping a steady pace in front of us. Ayane was asking these questions and I wasn't for sure if I was allowed to answer them or not. I didn't want to reveal delicate information that could have a negative effect depending on how Ayane took the news. Reluctantly, I answered. "I think Hiroshi is right. Maybe we shouldn't reveal too much information to you just yet."
Ayane stopped herself and I in her tracks and once again I could feel the blade of the knife pressing up against my body, only this time it was my back. Unfortunately, Hiroshi kept her pace leaving us behind.
"I just told you, I didn't trust her. Are you going to give me a reason not to trust you?"
"Don't you think this is getting a bit old, Ayane?"
"Just answer my question."
"As Hiroshi said, we shouldn't reveal too much information all at once." I said staring into her eyes showing no fear. "Kill me if you like, but what I do not appreciate is you threatening my life every time something does not go your way."
Ayane stared at me for a bit, then I could feel the blade slowly easing itself off of my back. She, then, placed the knife in front of my face. "I swear if I find out you're giving me a reason not to trust you, I will no longer threaten your life, but take it as well."
"Do as you please, Ayane. For certain, I am not giving you a reason to not trust me."
She stood quiet again staring at me as if she was trying to hypnotize me with her red eyes. "Keep it that way." She finally said as she turned to catch up with Hiroshi.
I gave a sigh, not a sigh of relief, but of annoyance. That's exactly what Ayane was coming to. As much as I tried to work with her, she didn't want to accept my help. I was already getting sick of it. I was already beginning to miss Kasumi.
"Here we are." Hiroshi said as we stood outside of the gates of the Mugen Tenshin village. It was a two-day hike, seems as if I did more traveling than I thought. Don't worry, I'm not leaving out nothing important. The past two days was nothing but Ayane trying to get more information out of me. And yes, she did try to threaten my life a few dozen more times.
After the two days, we stood out side of the Mugen Tenshin village, just out of view from the front door guards.
"I will go in first." Hiroshi looked at me. "Bring her to the side entrance. I will have some followers distract those guards, and immediately bring her to Hayate's quarters."
I gave a bow in agreement but Ayane intervened.
"I still prefer the front door method."
"We'll try that if this doesn't work." Hiroshi only said that to quiet Ayane's obnoxious behavior as she departed from the group and headed inside the village.
We must've waited for at least an hour before we received the signal from another one of Ayame's followers to make our entrance.
We did as we were told as we made our way inside. The guards were gone, the residents were gone. Hiroshi did a great job in clearing out the path to Hayate's quarters. Ayane stayed closed, thankfully. At least it gave me some confidence that she knew how to take orders when needed to.
We finally made it to Hayate's quarters where Hiroshi stood outside of Hayate's door awaiting our arrival.
"It's about time you two showed up." She said.
"It isn't easy trying to sneak past an entire clan." I said. "Thanks for the help." I sarcastically stated.
That's when everything spoiled as nearby ninja making his walk saw Kasumi's form standing next to the two Mugen Tenshin ninjas.
First he gasp. "What is she doing here?"
I quickly tried to quiet him. "Shhh. It's okay."
But being a member of the Mugen Tenshin clan and seeing a former member, now a traitor, on Mugen Tenshin territorial village, it's normal to predict his next action.
"It's the traitor!" He yelled which alerted nearby ninjas that even I didn't know was around.
I looked to Hiroshi for help, but all she did was flip her hair and said, "Well my work here is done." As she turned and walked into Hayate's quarters.
I was shocked that Hiroshi left me alone with the possessed body of Kasumi. How was I going to explain this? Why would she just turn her back on us?
Surprisingly, Ayane kept her calm, as Tenjinmon ninjas gathered into a group surrounding Ayane and me in a circle.
"What is she doing here?" I heard that voice among many of the others that was commoting around us.
I did my best to gain control of the situation.
"Please, it is not what it seems. This is not Kasumi."
"How can you say such an ignorant thing? She's standing right here in front of us."
Ayane looked at me with red eyes. I knew exactly what she was thinking, she was ready to take them all on in battle, by herself.
"Listen, why would I bring a runaway shinobi on Mugen Tenshin territory?" I tried to reason.
It didn't work. "Maybe you've sided with her."
The arguing and commotion continued until Ayane broke the noise. "Enough!" Everyone quieted and focused their attention to her. "I am not the woman who you think I am." She said coldly.
"How dare you speak to us that way traitor?"
I had a feeling he shouldn't have said that. Ayane looked at me. "Give me your sword."
"What? No." I said back.
"It's obvious these imbeciles aren't up to reason, so I guess there's only one other way to prove I am not Kasumi."
"Forget it, Ayane. I'm not."
"Fine, then look around." She said waving her hand in a circle as the Tenjinmon ninja began retrieving and readying their respected swords. "They already think you went against them. Are you going to sit here and let them kill us?"
I stayed quiet which caused her to roll her giving giving off a sigh, "Fine I promise I won't kill them."
"I want no part in this."
"Good, cause I don't need you as a distraction. Give me your sword and sit this one out."
God, I hated when she was right. I don't know what I got myself into. All I was doing was obeying orders and now I'm being looked at as a traitor. "You promise not to kill them."
"Tick tock, Ryokai." After the encounter in the Mizu Doragon forest, I was familiar with what she meant all too well.
"Fine." I said as I reached for the sword strapped to my back.
Before I could even pull it out, I have a hand grab my wrists preventing me from unshielding my weapon. I looked back to see who the individual was.
"Hayate." I was glad to see him. Maybe now I can get some order around here.
"Why did you bring her here?" He gave me a cold and angry look. So much for order.
In honor and respect to my leader, I bowed before him. "My apologies Hayate-sama…"
Before I could speak any further he interrupted me, "I only asked you to return with her location."
"This person you see is not Kasumi. I assure you." I looked up and saw him arch his eyebrow at me. "Please Hayate-sama."
Then Ayane intervened. "Get off of your knees. You have nothing to explain to him." She boastingly said.
Hayate became angered at Ayane's (Kasumi in his mind) insolence. "Stay out of this, Kasumi. It doesn't concern you."
"Don't call me that name." I could tell by just her voice she was easily getting aggravated as well as Hayate. I had to say something before things become out of control.
"Please Hayate-sama, forgive her. She knows not of what she speaks. Her memory has been erased."
He looked down to me. "If she is not Kasumi, then who is she."
I took a deep breath. I was hesitant on giving him the correct answer. I wasn't sure how he would react. "Ayane."
I looked to read his facial expressions and it was the same as mine when I first found out the body of Kasumi held the soul of Ayane.
"What kind of trick is this?" He asked.
"Please Hayate-sama. Just look into her eyes. Look at her soul. It is not Kasumi you are looking at."
I wouldn't say Hayate was hesitant or cautious, but he did stall as he slowly walked towards Ayane. The kinochi stared at Hayate with angered eyes. She didn't like the fact that this stranger was throwing his power around so freely.
Hayate looked deep within Ayane's red eyes. That was the first giveaway. The second I would have to say the frown. From what I know, Kasumi would normally have a smile or some other expression to show off her innocence.
"Ayane?" Hayate remarked with concern.
Ayane only stayed quiet as her look pierced a hole into Hayate.
Then a smile came across his face. "It's really you." He grabbed the kinochi and gave her a hug. I, myself, was surprised. I've never seen a ninja display such emotion.
Ayane immediately pushed him off of her. "Don't you ever put your hands on me!"
That's when I stood. I wasn't for sure if Hayate was angry or disappointed at this point, but I had to assure. "Please Hayate-sama. Forgive her. As I said she doesn't remember anything."
Hayate looked at me. "All is forgiven." Then he asked. "How did this happen?"
"It's a long story." I looked around to the other by-standing ninjas still having their weapons ready to strike on the command. I was giving the impression that maybe it wasn't the best of ideas to speak aloud before the group.
Hayate immediately caught on to my silent request. He gave his silent signal to his Tenshinmon ninjas to take their leave. They were hesitant at first, if I was in their position I wouldn't blame them. Here we have the body of the shinobi standing in full presence on Mugen-Tenshin territory and to hear the soul of, what is to be believed, a dead warrior trapping itself inside of its worst enemy. But as ninjas they had orders to follow, after a bit of silent discussion within their own minds, they slowly began taking their leave. Each still keeping a close eye onto the body of Kasumi.
Once everyone was out of sight, Hayate turned to us. "Come in. It seems there is much we must discuss."
MY REVIEWS:
------------------------------------------
LadyMidnight: WOW! So first you make Kasumi seem totally incapable
and amnesia wrought and then she's there kicking but with a sadistic
look on her face...I LOVE it! Very different from the other stories
I've read, great job!
I must say that Chapters 1 & 2 are my favs because it introduces
the plotline to the story, this is the reason why I didn't want to give
away the plotline when the story was first introduced.
------------------------------------------
LadyMidnight: Ooh! WOW! Makes me want to know what's going to happen next! Once again, fantastic writing
Thanks...so far this is my favorite story of all three mainly because
(since it's posted monthly) I get to go as deep indepth as I want to
and put out a 8-9 page chapter.
------------------------------------------
James Hanson: Greeings.
You bastard! You killed Ayane! No!
What do you mean she got hit by a meteor? It looked like both sisters
got hit by the meteor. And why were both found naked with blood coming
out of their mouthes? And why was Ayane dead (waahh!) but not Kasumi?
And why are her eyes red? Sounds a little X-Files-ish to me. You got
some explaining to do mister.
And since when does the clan especially the Tenjin-mon respect Ayane?
Catch you later, by for now.
James Hanson
Hmmmm, I think someone here owes me an apology. hehehe, j/k, but
of course I couldn't kill Ayane. But still the question remains,
will she die sooner or later. Will Kasumi die sooner or latr will
they both die sooner or later? And'there's only one way to find out
(keep reading on). And after reading this chapter, I can see all
except for one of your questions being answered which is the "Why were
they found naked with blood coming out of their mouths?"...and I don't
want to spoil so all I can say is keep reading. XD
------------------------------------------
Gullible Panda: WHAAT!
OMG! THIS HAS TO BE ONE OF THE BEST PLOTS EVER! CRIES HAPPILY I GIVE THIS 5 STARS! I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS! I ACUTALLY THOUGHT AYANE WAS DEAD! WAH! OMGG CONTINUE! I LOVE YOU! I FUCKING LOVE YOU!
This reminds me of "Samurai Deeper Kyo"
but I love these two beautiful ninja's better... sniffles I never dreamt of such a beautiful plot... bravo.. please continue.. cries
BLUSHES I'm glad you like it. And I love you too, but I must warn you, I'm engaged. hehehehe :P
hehehehe...I have a confession, I did get the idea of Samurai Deeper Kyo, and I'm glad you are a fan of the anime as well. But what I can say in my defense, is that only a few aspects of Samurai Deeper Kyo was taken, but most to almost all of the story is mine XD You'll see what I mean.
