Prologue
Another explosion. The castle walls shook sending more rubble and stone to the ground. Nobunaga held one arm up above his head to shelter himself from the falling pebbles. He continued to sweep through the castle, hoping the castle would hold together long enough for him to reach the basement.
Around him dozens of demons were flooding in the same direction, heading towards the lower castle floors. The castle was under attack. The samurais led by Samonosuke Akechi were pushing forward and the castle wouldn't be able to hold much longer. Nobunaga was surprised it had lasted this long.
The samurais had secured the outside of the castle. Any demons who were foolish enough to try and escape were cut down immediately. In theory there was nothing the demons could do but wait inside for the samurais to blast their way and end it all. In theory.
The samurais hadn't accounted for Guildenstern's invention. Supposedly it could travel through time, but it was still in the experimental procedures. However, with little options left and knowing the demons would not survive a head on assault from the coming armies, Nobunaga had ordered their best chance of survival was to leave the castle through the machine.
Entering the basement, Nobunaga could see hoards of demons streaming into the blinding light of the machine. Guildenstern was beside the control panel and from the grin on his face it appeared to be working. Nobunaga stood beside him, "Well?" he asked, "Is it working?"
Guildenstern gave a small shrug, "I don't know where they're going…but they're going somewhere."
Nobunaga frowned, hardly the answer he was expecting, or wanting. But an another explosion confirmed, he had no choice.
