Chapter 2...

"I know about almost every type of danger beast that exists on land. I trained my ass off to the point I coughed up blood. I was able to obtain and use an Imperial-Arms. I even practiced stealth take downs of various styles...yet.." Tatsumi was deep in thought as his anger was slowly building.

"Where's my seconds?"

"Are you almost finished?"

"I want extra meat."

"I'd like some more please."

"Me as well."

"Why in gods name am I stuck cooking for these imbeciles!?" Tatsumi was still wearing a cooking apron, as he was getting another serving of lunch prepped. He was sure they would have sent him out on assignment after a few days. But he was stuck cooking every night. He had a tick mark on his head as he turned with a awkwardly forced smile.

"Ju-just give me a second." He then went back to stirring a bowel and he scowled.

"Don't spit in the bowel, newbie." Mine said while she leaned back in her chair.

"I AIN"T SPITTIN'!" He said angrily. "Why am I suddenly cooking!? Isn't this Akam-DROP MY STEAK THIS INSTANT!" He turned to Akame and saw her chewing on it, as he threw a cooking knife, missing her while she ducked.

"It cam't beh herped. I'm usawly the ownwy won cwooking. (It can't be helped. I'm usually the only one cooking.)." She said with her mouth full.

"I bet its just so you can get to the food first." He said as he made an annoyed look.

"Awf cwourse nawt (Of course not)." She said as the steak hung from her mouth. It was really good steak, so good, she couldn't help but eat Tatsumi's.

"No matter how you look at it, its not convincing in any way." He thought as he just sighed in defeat.

"Well that apron is befitting of a newbie like yourself." Mine said as she made a smug look.

"Urusai! I'll make you food that'll flatten your chest down from A cup , to non-existence, you pink big mouth!" He threatened.

"Wh-!? I am not an A-cup! How dare you talk all high and mighty, even though you just got here!" She said as she blushed and stood up and pointed at him in a threatening manner.

"The fact that your that flat is a sin itself! You kid, Little girl, Flatty!" He constantly fired insults at her making her grit her teeth.

"You...Mega pervert!" She said as she once again was trying to trounce him while being held back by Leone.

"Now Mine. You walked right into that one." Leone said as she nervously chuckled.

"Well, thanks for dinner! It's about time we got going everyone!" Bulat said and got up and grabbed his jacket. Everyone one else at the table got up and also followed him as Tatsumi was curious where they were going.

"Going somewhere?" He asked.

"Yep. We got called out for emergency assignment." Bulat explained.

"Huh? Then why am I not going with you?" He asked.

"The NEWBIE can stay here. Go back to chopping cucumbers, or whatever it is your only good for!" Mine said as she belittled him.

"She's gonna be a pain in the ass as long as i'm here, right?" Tatsumi thought, his eye twitching.

"Later~!" She waved as they left leaving Tatsumi with killing intent leaking out as he clenched his fist.

Elsewhere...

Tatsumi was out outside with Akame as they stood in front of a waterfall. Tatsumi was at a loss for words as he just stared at it.

"..I assume there is a reason for dragging me out here?" He asked, turning to Akame.

"Our target is the Koga Tuna. This is the best place for catching them." She said as she started pulling her shirt up. Tatsumi then widened his eyes. Was she seriously stripping right here in front of hi..he then saw a white bikini she was in as she dropped her clothes.

"Oi Oi, I thought we were fishing." He said confused.

"Our prey is in the water." She said, and looked down. She then dove and dived down in the water as Tatsumi raised an eye brow. He then saw fish come flying out of the water and tried to catch them with the basket on his back. He was surprised she caught them so easily. He then saw her resurface.

"Dive down to the bottom and mask your presence. Then strike. Commitment is the key. Can you do it?" She asked. He simply blinked and lowered the basket and took his shirt off, and then dove.

Later...

"In the end, she got one more than me." Tatsumi said to himself as he just sat the table and finished the meat off his tuna.

"Akame says you did pretty good. Nice job with getting the fish!" Leone said with a smile as Tatsumi just sat back and sighed.

"Well Leone, lets hear the mission request." Najenda asked Leone. She nodded and put two posters sketched with faces on the table.

"Our targets this time are Gamel, an oil merchant, and Ogre of the imperial police. According to our client, Gamel the merchant has been paying huge amounts of bribes to Ogre. Every time Gamel commits a crime, Ogre fabricates it with lies, and frames someone innocent. Her fiance was framed and murdered while those two were doing their business." She then reached down and put a bag of money on the table. "Here's the payment."

"Quite a bit." Tatsumi said.

"I sensed pain.." She said, then frowned and gripped her arms." She must have had to sell her body to get this much." Tatsumi just made an emotionless expression as he to disliked the fact the way the woman had to sell herself. Another reason he hated the corruption.

"Have you verified the case?" Najenda asked.

"I checked with my own eyes and ears. They're guilty."

"Very well. Night Raid accepts this request. We wont need any abhorrent garbage in the new country. We shall carry out divine punishment." She said as she lit herself another cigarette.

"Gamel should be easy, but Ogre will be a formidable opponent." She said with a serious tone. "Ogre the Demon. He's a highly skilled swordsmen that even criminals fear. Normally, he has himself surrounded by his lackeys, and is rarely alone. Additionally, he's cautious. When accepting the hush money, he invites Gamel to his room. When he's off duty, he's drinking at Main Street.

"But the police are strict in the vicinity of that place. Getting there will be tough for faces that have wanted posters, like Akame." Najenda noted.

"Hey, Hey! I'm not on any wanted posters!" Leone said as she raised her hand enthusiastically.

"You up to it?"

"The stronger the enemy, the more fired up I am!" Leone said confidently as she pumped her fist.

"Why not wait till Mine and the others get back?" Akame asked.

"There's no way of knowing when they'll get back." Tatsumi said. Akame nodded in agreement. "Why don't the three of us just do it?" He suggested.

"Oh? Are you saying you'll defeat Ogre?" Najenda said as she smiled.

"That's big talk Tatsumi, you better be prepared to take responsibility for those words." Leone said as she smiled at him.

"These aren't the same as other soldiers Tatsumi, this might be beyond you." Akame said, then took a sip from her cup.

"The only thing I see wrong is that nickname. If you think I can't deal with one meatbag that knows how to use a sword, then say it to my face." He said as he stated coldly towards Akame. She blinked for a moment as Leone could feel an uneasy atmosphere from him. He seemed to be a little pissed about something.

"..We aren't saying you can't kill Ogre, Tatsumi. I know you were the first person who got closer to the Prime Minister than anybody else. So, I will send you to eliminate Ogre. Akame and Leone will deal with Gamel." She said as she stood up and walked off.

"Roger." Akame said, and stood up.

"Oh Tatsumi." Najenda then turned before she left. "That Teigu that you retrieved. It's in your room when you're ready to leave."

"..I won't need it." He said as his hair foreshadowed his eyes. He got up and then put on his long brown coat and buttoned it, and went over to a rack with regular short swords, and took one. "I'll meet you there."

"Eeeh~? Why not just travel together? " Leone asked, much to her distress.

"I don't know if my wanted poster showed up there. If I accompany you, and people recognize me, then they will assume you're with me." He said as he slung the sword over his back and fastened it around his body. It rested horizontally on the bottom of his back. "Later." He said, and walked off.

Later in the capital...

"I went around town for about an hour. Nobody seemed to be glancing, or paid me any unnecessary attention. I should be ok." Tatsumi said while he stood there with Leone.

"You have the location mapped out?" She asked.

"Its memorized." He said as he just stared emptily out at the crowd.

"Hey, Tatsumi.." She started to say as he turned to her. "You should know, its not like Akame doesn't trust you or anything. She told me that you handled yourself really well when you went to go grab your Teigu. But you should know about her past. Back when she was just a child, the Empire bought her and her sister. She, and other children with similar circumstances, were forced into a program for assassins, and were trained to kill. She survived that cruel experience. And she became an assassin that could fully carry out the capital's orders." She explained as he just maintained a blank expression."However, as Akame continued to fulfill missions, she began to sense the capitals darkness. And her target at the time was Boss. She persuaded her to defect and join the Revolutionary Army, that clearly fought for the people. But by this time, most of the comrades she grew up with were dead." She finished the story as Tatsumi just turned back to the crowd."I'm sure you understand what that's like." She said while she turned to him.

"..Maybe." He said, and walked past her. "I don't hate her or anything Leone...I was just frustrated because everyone was acting like I can't handle myself." He began walking towards the crowd before saying. "Good luck to you both."

"Heheh~! You too!" She said happily.

"Tahh~! It feels good to have a drink after an intense interrogation." A burly man with a scar over his eye said while he walked through town.

"Umm..excuse me sir."

"Heuh?" Ogre turned to see a young, cloaked man who was fidgeting and keeping his head down.

"Uh..Ah, here." He then clumsily pulled out a small piece of paper and read it. "I cornered a rat behind the..um..ch-church. Take care of it." He finished. "Um, a merchant told me to tell you this, and that you would give me..c-compensation?"

"Tch! I have to do everything for that idiot! Whatever kid, take this and beat it." Ogre said as he walked off towards the church. After he arrived at a dark alley, he looked around for the merchant. "Hey! Gamel! Where the hell are you!?" He roared. He scoffed and turned and then his eye met a young man right in front of him, it was the same boy from earlier. "I see now. I don't know how you know of our arrangement boy. But now I can't let you live!" He said as he drew his sword and charged after Tatsumi. Tatsumi then shot past him and slashed his torso, causing Ogre's blood to fly everywhere.

"S-such speed and power." He said as he fell. Tatsumi then slowly recomposed himself and stood up and kept his back to Ogre. "Get up meatbag. That little cut isn't enough to put you down." Tatsumi said, feeling Ogre's presence behind him. Tatsumi dodged his slashes as Ogre roared in defiance.

"To think that I, the great Ogre, could possibly be defeated by a measly twerp!" He brought his sword down and missed Tatsumi once again as his sword cracked the ground. Tatsumi just kept a stern look before he came at Ogre again and jumped as he brought his sword down on Ogre. Ogre attempted to block it, but it was a feint, as Tatsumi got under his guard, and slashed his arm off.

"YAAHHH! YOU FUCKING TW-" He didn't get to finish as Tatsumi quickly slashed his head off. "T..to b..e..beaten..by a..twerp." Were his last thoughts while his blood sprayed in arcs from Tatsumi's slashes. His head and corpse hit the ground. Tatsumi then simply sheathed his sword and walked calmly away.

"I guess I better return to base."

Night Raid headquarters...

"Congratulations on defeating Ogre." Najenda said with smile.

"He wasn't much to be honest. That meatbag didn't even get a single strike in." He sighed. All of a sudden, Akame came over and grabbed his shirt. Tatsumi immediately grabbed her wrist with annoyance. "Oi." He simply said.

"I need to check for any signs of wounds." She simply said.

"But I didn't get wounded." He raised his eye brow.

"Lenoe, hold him."

"Roger~!" She grabbed him from behind and lifted his shirt off much to his annoyance.

"Hey, don't go stripping people!" He shouted. He then felt Akame drop his pants as his cheeks were a little red from embarrassment. "WHAT THE HELL AKAME!?" He shouted annoyed.

"Hmm.." Akame then began looking all over him and then stopped right in front of him. "Thank goodness." He then made a sound of surprise, as she smiled warmly. "A friend of mine died because he was too proud to report his wounds, and they were poisoned. Well done on your first mission, Tatsumi." She said as she offered him her hand as he just blinked and then took her hand slowly while looking away.

"First missions have a high fatality rate. So its very fortunate that you came out alive after this. With this, you are now officially one of us." Najenda said.

"I say this calls for a celebration! Hey Tatsumi, could you please make something to eat? I worked up quite a appetite out there~!" She said, then she grabbed him by his head and snuggled him close to her breast.

"O-Oi! Clothes, I need my freaking clothes!" He tried to say as she carried him off.

"That was a successful mission. Great job Akame." Najenda said. Akame then shook her head and smiled.

"My friends helped me get through it. I'm happy everyone came back alive." Najenda smiled once more and put out her cigarette.

"Lets keep it that way eh?" She said.

"Hai." Akame smiled while she nodded.

Tatsumi was was cleaning dishes once again, since Leone had eaten her fill and drifted off to sleep on the couch. He was alone with his thoughts. He was thinking back to before he was caught up in this whole thing with Night Raid. He was simply wondering if this was really worth it. Would he really be able to get his revenge? Could he trust these people? They seemed okay. Granted they were a little..scratch that, they WERE weird. But they seemed to be respectable and caring for one another. They truly believed that they can change the Empire. Well, that would be great, but he just wanted to kill the son of a bitch that annihilated his village.

"Tatsumi." He heard a voice behind him and saw Akame standing in the door way.

"I didn't make anymore food." He said, thinking that was her reason for coming to the kitchen.

"Its not that. I just wanted to say, good job."

"Eh, thanks." He said, turning back to the dishes.

"I hope you weren't upset earlier when I said that the target was beyond you. I apologize if I angered you." She said while bowing. Tatsumi then stopped and turned his head to the side. "You have nothing to apologize for. You just wanted to make sure I was capable, and didn't get cocky." He said turning back to the sink.

"N-not only that, but I wanted you to come back safely as well!" She quickly said. He then widened his eyes, and he stopped for a few moments.

"I..really care about all my comrades in Night Raid..so..I just wanted you to know that you are important as well." Tatsumi then, unknown to her, smiled and continued washing dishes. "I guess I was right to put my faith in you after all." He said, which made her look up at him with a sound of surprise. "I'll be counting on you in the future, comrade." He said, keeping his back to her. She then smiled warmly.

"Mm."

The next morning...

Tatsumi was training in the yard. He had his Teigu with him, trying to focus. "I'll master this damn thing, even if I hate it." He thought. He then stabbed it in the ground in front of him. It then began emanating a green light, as greenish wind picked up and began blowing around him. He was then becoming engulfed inside a tornado. It blew upward and began sucking everything around inside it. Branches, rocks, and uprooted earth had been sucked into it. Tatsumi then slowly directed his sword in a circular fashion above him, as the top of the tornado began following the movements of the tip of the blade.

"Tornado!" He then directed the tornado in front of him as it blasted through the forest in front of him and ripped through the ground, and flinging trees in all directions. He then stopped and the wind around him calmed as he slowly sheathed the sword. He smiled a little. "It's not perfect, but it'll do for now."

"Tatsumi." He turned and saw Lubbock waving towards him.

"Yeah?"

"Miss Nejanda wanted you for something. Everyone is waiting."

"Hm?" Tatsumi raised his eyebrow curiously. What was it this time?

"Good morning Tatsumi!" Bulat said as he came up and gave him a friendly pat (more like slap) on the back while greeting him.

"You guys are back?" He asked.

"Yep! We traveled till dusk, then got some much needed rest. I heard from the boss that you were successful on your first mission! Great job with that!" He said as he put his hand on his shoulder.

"Eh, wasn't that bad. To be honest though, I was expecting more." He sighed.

"Ohh, I like your enthusiasm! Looks like you are going to fit in nicely around here!" Bulat laughed.

"If you two are done, we should get down to business." Najenda said. "Tatsumi, I found out some more about your Teigu, and figured you would want to know."

"Yeah? What do you know?" Tatsumi asked.

"The army sent me some more up-to-date details on Teigu, and I found out that its called The Jade Storm: Sky Ripper."

"Heh, well that actually sums up this thing's capabilities." Tatsumi smirked, holding the sword up.

"I was correct about the material being from a Tempest's horn. It can control wind, and, as it's name implies, can rip through almost anything. It can control storms, and create shock waves of wind that can cut through things stronger than steel. Although, it's trump card hasn't been identified yet. But, i'm sure at some point you'll figure it out." She said with a friendly smile. Tatsumi just looked at it one last time and nodded. Another question then occurred to him.

"Just to clarify, you all use Teigu, right?" They all nodded.

"Yes. Every member of Night Raid has a Teigu of their own. Akame's sword is Murasame that can kill with just one cut. The blade has a deadly poison that quickly kills the target in mere seconds."

"Well, I guess that's handy."

"Not really. Its a nuisance, because I have to be careful when cleaning it." Akame said while she made a furrowed look.

"Ok, I guess not." Tatsumi said with a sweat drop.

"Next is Incursio. It covers the user in a nearly indestructible armor that endows enhanced speed and strength. Also is capable of turning the user invisible. But it gives a massive strain on someone who can't control it. Then there is Lionelle. It enhances all five senses, giving the user beast-like characteristics. It also has a regeneration ability. Then there's.." She went on explaining all the Teigu to him that each member possessed. He found it rather interesting. It was quite hard to believe that weapons like these exist.

"Hm. I wonder how many Teigu exist in all." He thought out loud.

"There was originally 48 in all. But half of them were destroyed and lost. Although, not much is known about these super weapons, or the people that created them." Najenda explained.

"A mystery indeed." Tatsumi then nodded, and walked off as he walked towards the outside door.

"Where are you going?" Leone asked curiously.

"Personal business I got to take care of. I'll be back tomorrow."

"Eeeh? Sounds suspicious." Leone said while looking at him with a narrowed look.

"I don't mind if you tag along. But i'm coming right back afterwards." He said as he exited.

"Now that was just shady." Mine said while folding her arms.

"..Let him go Leone." Najenda said as she puffed out smoke.

"Eh?"

"Tatsumi proved he can be trusted, so we should treat him just like a comrade. If he says he'll back, then we should believe him." She said.

"Are you sure about this?" Mine asked.

"I checked the murder out of Far Heshing. Looks like Tatsumi was telling the truth. The captain had a contact he met every few months, so the army sent in an impostor, and was playing him to figure out what he was selling the Empire. But Tatsumi killed him right when they were about to meet the real contact. So the army got pissed and took their frustration out on him. It was off the books though, so even the men he killed in self defense had no idea their superior was dirty." She explained.

"Well, I guess that explains why he had to run from them. Wait boss, how long did you know he was innocent?" Sheele asked curiously.

"About the time you guys busted him out. Although I wanted to double check."

"Eh!? Then why didn't you say anything? I was worrying the whole time for nothing then." Mine protested.

"I also found out why Tatsumi wants to get revenge."

"Eh?" Everyone said.

"Turns out the village he lived at was purged by a special unit led by the Prime Minister himself." Bulat then felt a frown take over his face as he looked down.

"Purges, huh? Can't say I blame him." Bulat said.

"Purges?" Lubbock asked curiously.

"Hai. Purges were the most ruthless thing a village could succumb to. Back when I was still in the army, the generals would send troops in to make villages surrender to the Empire. If they didn't submit, we were ordered to slaughter, and publicly humiliate the village, as a testament to those who defied the Empire. If the Prime Minister was part of that unit, it must have been ten times worse." He finished.

"And if that's not a reason to want to kill the Prime Minister, then I don't what is. He wants the same thing, although for a different reason, we're all wanting the corruption to end. And for that, Night Raid will deliver divine judgment to the trash that inhabit the Empire." Najenda stated. They all nodded in agreement.

Elsewhere...

Tatsumi was walking down the road in a forest. Keeping a stern expression and walking down the road. His Teigu was strapped horizontally on the bottom of his back, over his brown, long coat, as he felt wind currents from all directions. He hypothesized that the air currents were easy to read because of his Teigu. Slowly, day by day, the Teigu was becoming more in tune with him. Perhaps he was going about using it all wrong. He was never able to generate a tornado when he was on his own. Perhaps spending time with these assassins was slowly making him able to unlock the potential of the Teigu. Was the Teigu affected by his emotional state? His subconscious? Perhaps his heart? He could only guess as he walked down the road.

He was still walking when he then noticed a silhouette approaching from down the road. He narrowed his eyes, trying to identify what it was while walking towards it. It was human. A woman, with long blue hair. Her skin looked pale white. She kept a long rapier on the back of her waist. Her outfit clearly indicated some air of superiority about her. Her eyes also were blue, gentle, but cold. He was curious, but decided to ignore her and try to make little to no eye contact, as he kept his head down, his brown hair shadowing his eyes.

The woman seemed to notice him, but barely glanced. She kept walking normally until the two were close to each other. They passed each other, but right before it happened, Tatsumi felt the air around her was cold. It was the kind that sent chills down your spine when someone was dangerous. It was killing intent, which instinctively made him grab his sword handle. She then paused about a few feet away from him as she then turned her gaze toward the boy.

"You. Have you no respect for proper etiquette? You are to respect a general of the Empire with a bow and greeting." She said in a cold tone that sounded a bit annoyed. Who the hell was this woman? Tatsumi then just continued on, ignoring her and walking. He didn't give a shit if she was the King, he bowed to no man..or woman.

"Good for you, now stop bothering me." He said in a cold tone as he walked on.

"Hoh? A defiant one I see." A devilish smirk then made it to her face as she drew her rapier."I shall escort you to the torture chamber, little man. Maybe after an hour you'll learn not to defy me." Tatsumi felt the same killing intent she gave off in that last brief moment. This time it flowed out of her like she was possessed by Satan himself. He stopped and then turned to her with a cold gaze of his own. This woman didn't seem to be intimidated at all. She felt no killing intent from him whatsoever. Did he think glaring at her was supposed make her back down.

She knew children that gave off a more threatening aura.

"I'm not looking to fight the Empire's bitch." He said still locking gazes with her.

"I see. Maybe after breaking your body down to its very soul, i'll personally rip that insolent tongue out, little man." She seemed annoyed and strangely impressed that he didn't run away. He had good, cold eyes like her. He didn't seem angry, or scared stiff, just simply annoyed. Perhaps she would toy with him for a bit.

"Keep your words, show me your steel." Tatsumi said as the two stood their ground.

"Interesting. You might prove to be a satisfying toy, little man." She said while smiling.

"I'm not your toy." He said as he drew his sword. She eyed the sword he had and thought it looked strange.

"That sword looks interesting. I've never seen craftsmen ship like that before." She noted.

"Really? I don't really like it."

"And why is that?" She asked.

"Find out." He then jumped and shot towards her. He first brought his sword down as a feint, which she blocked. He then ducked and swiped for her arm, but she blocked that as well, but he wasn't done yet. He then spun around and blasted her back with a strong wind. She was a bit surprised as she slid back, barely fazed by the attack. Tatsumi charged her again and began swiping at her from all directions that no normal person would be able to read. But she was blocking them all, and then got into a sword lock with him, as he glared at her.

"Well whats this? A Teigu user, and you handle your self pretty well." She praised and smiled gently. "Show me more, little man."

"Grrhh!" He grunted and began slashing even faster, as she side stepped and elbowed him in the back of the head. He then hit the ground face first. Surprised she was able react. He then quickly jumped back up. He then charged her again. He slashed once more at her horizontally, but she jumped and avoided it. She then pointed her sword toward his face, mere inches away from him. He froze for a moment, and then backed away from her quickly.

"She's just screwing with me." Tatsumi thought, feeling a cold drop of sweat. Never in the longest time had he been that close to another's blade.

"Come, let me give you a fitting death." She said while smiling, amused.

"You're some kinda monster lady." He said readying his sword. "Okay, lets try this." He then swiped his sword and jetted toward her. She simply smiled. She then slashed his body, he didn't even see it coming, seeing as how he didn't even move. But all of the sudden, Tatsumi vanished in the air. Her eyes had a stern look. "A clone?" She thought. She was right, as Tatsumi shot at her again.

"Interesting. You handle that Teigu rather well boy." She said as she blocked his strike close to her face."And you keep going for my head. You really do know to kill a person." She praised him once more as he just grunted. She was stronger then he anticipated. But that wasn't going to stop him. He charged with his constant assault. She just parried his blows while getting more and more amused.

"Come! More! Dance for me more!" She said while her grin grew bigger. "This is quite a duel little man. I never thought you would still be sta-"

She blocked several strikes from him, but then was shocked. He had a dark red glint in his eye, as he lounged at her face, barely making a small slit on her pale cheek. He maintained his cold look, as he stared her dead in the eyes. His eyes clearly saying he was going for the kill.

He then jumped back and readied himself once more. She then felt her cheek with a hand, and then looked at it with a foreshadowed look. He had just barely cut her. That alone was a shock. She put her hand on the ground, and a bunch of spiked shape ice was coming out of the ground and heading towards Tatsumi. He widened his eyes and rolled to the side just barely dodging it. He then looked back at her with a surprised look. She was smiling. Why was she smiling?

"..I've never been cut before. Not in the longest time, has any man been able to so much as scratch my visage!" She had the look of a demon about her. Tatsumi was surprised that ice randomly came out of the ground. Was she using a Teigu as well? "My blood is boiling..I feel..excitement?" She then made a dark, amused, gentle smile. "What is your name young man?"

"Tatsumi." He said panting.

"I see. It is a good name. I praise you for being able to at least hold your ground."

"I admit you're a cut or two above other meatbags." Tatsumi said as he kept his eyes on her.

"Hmph." She lightly scoffed as she then came at Tatsumi. He blocked two of her blows, but the third had made him stumble back, giving her the opportunity to trip him and made him fall to the ground. She then got on top of him, straddling him while holding her swords edge to his throat. He made blank look at her. He lost. No way in hell could he match her. She got him down in just a few seconds! Who the hell was this!?

"My name is Esdeath. " She said while smiling at him with an amused look.

"Esdeath..." He slowly said the name to himself...All of a sudden, he realized he was staring into the eyes of the most strongest general the Empire had.

"Wait I've heard that na-..Oh shit."

"I will make you mine, Tatsumi." She said with a bit of a pink on her cheeks, as she gently smiled at him.

"W-what?"

Oh boy! How will Tatsumi get out of this one? Read/Review/Vote!

Laters!
