------------------------------------------Chapter 22---------------------------------------------------
They all entered the tunnel ready for anything. In this cave the party was tested of there loyalties to one
another. They found these strange Huge floating eye balls these eye balls had the abilities of Enchanters.
Balerian walked up to one of these Eyes and tried to kill it but he came under its spell. He turned and
looked at Shadex and charged shade with blades pointed at shades Chest. But being the killer Shadex is he
jumped into the air and landed behind Balerian with his daggers ready to kill but he only knocked Bal out
with the hilt of his sword. Shadex had heard of these Evil Eyes they can take the most loyal of men and turn
them against there leader. Shadex avoided its gaze the Druid. Kenji and Kenshin using there swords (Aka
Katana's) so you can grasp Kenji and Kenshin I am not going to change them form there status as Samurai
or alter them from the manga/ anime. Kenji is wearing a Blue kimono top and a white Hakama and Kenshin
is wearing a Black Kimono top and a white Hakama (In the manga of samurai X Kenshin wears this when
he's going to kill tomeo) They both have Well made Katana's. ok back to the killing using there sword
style Hiten Mitsurugi Ryu they blind the Eye and give Shadow and Shadex there chance to get close and
stab the beast in the back and kill it. Cara wakes and heals Balerian he seems to be surprised at how fast
Shadex had gotten. Shadex had changed from a rogue in the past weeks to a ninja. He far surpassed a
simple assassin he was much more skilled and Balerian had also changed but he went from a Warrior to a
Guardian. He was much stronger then a normal warrior. When the group got through most of the tunnel
they saw small camp they went and saw all it was, was a few merchants who were selling rare things and
very valuable things to adventurers who want nice things for a bit of coin. Shadex drops to them and sells
his ring mail armor and buys some lighter chain mail and a whole new outfit that was suited for a ninja (like
Aoshie when he was the leader of the oniwaban see Rouni Kenshin to understand) he had two kodachies
and he was a lot different then he used to be he had a mask the only covered his nose and chin and mouth.
He was ready for anything. Shadow was in awe when he saw Shadex and went up to him and said
Shadow: Wow I like the clothes man I wanna be like you your so much better then Assassins.
Shadex: well if you'd like ill work with you and teach you what I know
Shadow: that would be great…do I have to call you Sensei of Master?
Shadex: you can call me sensei if you want other then that call me Shadex ha-ha.
Shadow: ok sensei Shadow bows to Shadex and goes and buys what Shadex has on but instead of black he gets gray
Balerian: hay Kenji what is that sword technique you and your old man do that's so fast?
Kenji: well it's really just the sword style I do its Hiten Mitsurugi Ryu.
Balerian: wow hay you think your old man would teach me that?
Kenshin: you act as if I am not here you do
Balerian: I am sorry Kenshin
Kenshin: its ok and ill teach you the ways of Hiten Mitsurugi Ryu.
Balerian: cool thanks
Balerian sells his swords and his armor and buys a Red kimono top and a black Hakama and a Silver and
black Katana.
After all the talking and selling was done the party found a spot in the tunnel that seemed protect able and
Balerian got the first watch that night and what happens next no one was expecting.
