Anyway this is the next chapter. Enjoy!
Chapter 4 Meet the Siblings
Continuing where we last saw them, we see Makoto the Emperor, dragging Tatsumi around the corridors of the castle, with Esdeath, Budo, Tadakatsu, and the Three Beasts in tow.
They arrived at a HUGE indoor garden, moving towards a large gazebo, everyone sat at different places at the gazebo. Nyau went on top of the railing laying himself there and Daidara is just outside of the gazebo laying on the grass looking up at the sky, while River sat on a rocking chair with a cup of tea at the ready. Budo and Tadakatsu leaned on pillars wary of each other, Tatsumi and Esdeath sat on a couch swing? with little Makoto placing himself next to him looking up at him with sparkling eyes.
"Ne~ Onee-san! What did you do now? I'm sorry Esdeath-san but I can't help it, but how was it like? Fighting and beating Esdeath-san?" Makoto asked eagerly.
Tatsumi just chuckled. "You know… I can just show you, you know? Shadow Film!"
He said as he held his hand out to an unoccupied corner of the gazebo. Shadows started gathering and solidifying into a blank black surface, after a while an image started to appear.
(Insert fight from chapter 1)
Makoto looked at him and Esdeath with stars in his eyes. "That was sooo coool onee-san, Esdeath-san!"
Tatsumi just smiled at the little boy, while Esdeath was genuinely surprised by the awe in his voice she could not help but also smile at the little emperor and pat him on the head. Making him purr? Makoto froze as Esdeath heard Tatsumi chuckle a little.
"Soooo~ Mako-chan still purrs doesn't he?~" Tatsumi bent down looking at the blushing and squirming Emperor.
"Mou~ Onee-san! Urusai!~" Makoto yelled with an atomic blush on his face. Tatsumi started laughing at that, and Esdeath couldn't help but chuckle little, making Makoto look at her with a horrified face. "It's not funny!~" The embarrassed emperor all but screamed out in playful frustration.
Tatsumi looked around and saw that Nyau is now running around running away laughing from the angry Daidara, and River, Tadakatsu and Budo, having a conversation about something. Looking back at the fuming Makoto, Tatsumi was about to say something when an imperial guard made himself known. "Makoto-sama! There is a commotion going on in the town square, there are two individuals fighting and two other people trying to calm them both down!"
Makoto looked at the guard seriously. "Who are the individuals?" The soldier immediately answered. "The two people creating the commotion are a girl with burning hair, and an apparently younger boy with a broadsword and thunder sparking hair, yes I am serious Makoto-sama. And the two people trying to calm them down are a lazy looking black haired man with a strange sword, and a young girl with a strange bow and even stranger looking arrows."
Makoto was about to say something when Tatsumi couldn't hold it in and started chuckling evilly, making EVERYONE freeze, they all looked at Tatsumi who has this dark aura and several tick marks on his head. Tatsumi looked up at everyone, letting everyone see Tatsumi with a twitching eyebrow and a very terrifying looking innocent smile. "Excuse me soldier-san~?" Making the imperial soldier pray to the divines quickly before asking. "Y-ye-yes?" Tatsumi opened his eyes, showing everyone that they're glowing malevolent red. "Where are they now~?"
- A few minutes later -
"Aren't ya gonna apologize brat?!" The girl with burning hair smashed her fists together clearly preparing to smash the brat's head in. "Why should I apologize when you ran into me you bitch?!" The 'brat' with thunder sparking hair retorted back at her.
"Lin! I think you should calm down a little. Your gonna get the imperial guard after you. And you can tell that would be very annoying don't you remember?" A man with hair that looks like the night sky, and magenta eyes tried to tell her in a calm voice.
"Yeah! Ieyasu come on! You should also calm down. I don't want our reunion with onee-chan to be visiting you in prison!" A black haired girl with gray eyes groaned out in frustration.
The two fighters looked back at their respective companions. "But Niro,/Sayo, he/she started it!" They were about to say something else when they felt a hand on their shoulder. They turned back quickly.
"Oi! Who aaaaarrrreeeeeee….. Shiiiiiiiiiiiiit…..." The newly mentioned Lin and Ieyasu trailed off together as they started sweating in obvious fear, drawing the attention of everyone including their companions, Sayo and Niro looked at the person and started sweating also.
"Now~ What were you two about to do~?" Tatsumi smiled innocently with closed eyes. Scaring the four fighters even more. Ieyasu started to stutter. "Uh. uh. Bro! Uhm… Nothing! Nothing! The two of us were just talking. Yeah! Just talking right?" Ieyasu finished with a nervous smile, sweating even more when Tatsumi opened a single glowing red eye and looked at him with a freaking death stare.
Lin's instincts are fucking screaming at her to try and get her to run or calm this monster down. She couldn't run so she had to do what the brat was trying to do. "Ye-yeah! We were just having a friendly talk. No fighting here!" Lin finished also smiling nervously, and started sweating even more when the monster's eye locked onto her.
Tatsumi was not amused. "Oh really now~? Is that the truth~?" Tatsumi opened his other eye looking fully at both of them with an innocent smile.
Sayo and Niro are wisely trying to inch away from ground zero. However Tatsumi wouldn't let them off the hook as well. Both of their shadows grabbed them, and started sliding them until they were beside their respective companion. Tatsumi just stared at them, slowly getting them to loosen their mouths so that they tell the truth out of shear terror, when.
A short girl with short black hair nibbling on candy piped up from the crowd. "The two were about to fight. Because the two bumped into each other and didn't want to apologize to each other." Making Tatsumi turn his glowing eyes and innocent smile to her. Making her take a quick step back, making her feel fear for the first time in forever. Tatsumi's smile just got bigger. "Thank you, miss?" The girl stuttered a bit. "Ku-Kurome." Tatsumi nodded slowly. "Arigatou~ Kurome-chan~" The obvious restrained delight and anger in his voice made her shudder in fright.
Kana was looking out of her window looking at the scene… And taking notes on her notepad…. "So that's what he meant." Kana chuckled. "Fufufu, I can't wait to try my version next time." Kana chuckled quietly, scaring a few of her customers, and making her daughter whimper in fright because she only chuckles like that when she has a scary thought.
Looking back at the four tied up people. "So~ I guess… I have to P-U-N-I-S-H you~" Tatsumi slowly said as his eyes glowed malevolently. Making the four shake in absolute terror.
They were being dragged by Tatsumi as the citizens and corrupt people gave him a HUGE berth of space. They screamed out together. "Nooooooooooooo"
- One hour later -
Sayo, Ieyasu, Lin, and Niro are sitting down on the floor with their hands on their knees, bowing their heads… With a huge bump on each of their heads. Tatsumi is sitting down on the throne with Makoto, Esdeath, and the others hiding behind a door, with their heads peeking out, somewhat curious to see what Tatsumi would do next.
It was nothing but silence in the throne room. Finally, Tatsumi spoke. "Now. What did we learn~?"
The four subdued individuals spoke out in unison. "Not to fight in civilian areas, and to be respectful..." Their answer pleased Tatsumi.
Tatsumi nodded. "Good! Now, I was expecting you four to arrive here in a day or two, but it seems you arrived earlier than I thought." Tatsumi started speaking out. Making the four look up. "There are some people I want you to meet." Tatsumi looked to the door… and yelled out in annoyance. "OI! GET IN HERE!" As he yelled that out. Makoto, Esdeath, and the others quickly ran into the room, still afraid of him.
Looking around and nodding, Tatsumi spoke. "Sayo, Ieyasu, Niro, and Lin! Introduce yourselves!" "Roger!"
Turning to them, Sayo went first. "Uhh… Hello, my name is Sayo, it is nice to meet you all! And uhh… this is my weapon, the Hakugin Koka" Sayo said this with a nervous smile, and a gentle aura. She has long straight black hair, and dark gray eyes. She has a holy looking silvery white bow, and an even holier looking white and gold quiver.
Ieyasu went next as he spoke out. "Yo! The name's Ieyasu! Nice to meet ya! And my weapon is this bad boy here, the Raiu no Ha!" He finished in a thumbs up pose, and slightly electric aura. He has black messy hair, with a white bandanna with blue lighting marks on the bandanna, he has brown eyes, with a blue pupil. He carries a huge broadsword that looks normal, but has glowing blue lines in the middle of the blade, and has a glowing blue and white jewel on the guard.
Niro spoke out bowing a little. "Greetings. My name is Niro. It is a pleasure to meet you all, my weapon is this. The Ryuuraito" He said this with an eye smile and an easy going aura. He has black hair that looks like a starry night tied in a high pony tail and magenta eyes. He carries a strange looking black katana that looks like it was forged from the night.
Lin went last. "I guess I'm last then. Welp! Yo! The name's Lin Nayashi! I guess it's ok to meet you… Anyway! My weapon is a part of me right here! My Satsui no Hado! She roared out the last sentence. She has long wavy purple hair with fire-like highlights streaking through it, and black eyes that have an orange like glow. She held up her fists, that generated a weird burning aura that took the transparent form of dangerous looking gauntlets.
Everyone else greeted themselves, everyone but Makoto did their introdutions, Makoto took place hiding behind Tatsumi, peeking out a little at times. Tatsumi smiled softly, and started using an arm to move the little emperor out in the open in front of him. "Come on Mako-chan, you don't need to be nervous… Go on. Just introduce yourself." Tatsumi coaxed him.
Makoto looked up at his onee-san. He looked back at the four. "Uhh… Greetings. My name is Makoto, I am the… Emperor… I… wield my own weapon. It's... called the Eien no Yama" He said shyly as he is not used to talking to other people like this aside from his onee-san.
Sayo got down until she was eye level with the young emperor. "Aw~ Kawaii~! Its nice to meet you too." Sayo said it with a gentle smile, Makoto blushed at that and looked down at his feet.
Tatsumi clapped his hands, scaring everyone into attention. "Alright! Now that is done and over with. I'd like to ask Mako-chan something." He walked until he is in front of Makoto, getting down so that he's eye level with the little emperor. "Ne~ Mako-chan. Can those four and I stay here for awhile?" Tatsumi asked with a gentle smile. Makoto nodded furiously. "Of course Onee-san! You and your friends are more than welcome to stay here! I can get some of the guards to show you guys to your rooms! I would do it myself but… I don't know where the guest rooms are exactly… hehe~" Makoto finished with an embarrassed chuckle and sweatdrop.
Tatsumi grabbed Makoto into a big hug worthy of an older sibling. "Wuah~ Arigatou Mako-chan~" He said this as he's spinning themselves around rubbing his cheek on Makoto's, whose face is red from the sibling affection. "Ah! Onee-san! Put me down~!"
Tatsumi suddenly stopped and let go completely, making Makoto fall to the ground with a yelp. He looked at Budo, making him take a step back. "Ah. Budo-chan? I need to talk to you about something. You to Es-chan." The seriousness in his voice threw the two mentioned generals for a loop.
"Tadakatsu, I need you to guard Mako-chan while the three of us talk." The seriousness in his voice made Tadakatsu nod. "Hai!" Tadakatsu went and took Budo's place beside Makoto.
Nodding, Tatsumi looked back at the two generals. "Follow me." Tatsumi created a black portal of darkness. The two generals looked at each other before nodding. The three powerful warriors disappeared into the portal. Silence reigned.
Sayo broke the silence. "So… Uh… Do you guys want to do something?" That snapped everyone else out, and started talking about things while a few are playing games.
- In a dark room. -
"So. Tatsumi-dono, what did you want to talk to us for? Especially if it meant to get us away from prying eyes." Budo asked while placing his hands on the table.
"I am quite confused as well, Tatsu-chan. Why did you want to talk to the two of us?" Esdeath also inquired.
Looking left and right Tatsumi looked at the generals seriously. "How well do you know the Slate?" That got the attention of both. Budo looked wary, while Esdeath looked pleasantly surprised.
Budo answered first slowly. "The only thing I know is that it is an ancient artifact, dating back to even before this empire was born, and the fact that the Slate carries catastrophic forces that make even ultra-class danger beasts look weak."
Esdeath nodded. "Yes, from what I remember, I was always told it was a legend when I was a child. I never actually thought that it would be real."
Tatsumi nodded. "You two are not that far off. The Slate is an ancient artifact yes, that is true. However one fails to notice one thing about it..." Tatsumi looked at both of them dead in the eye. "It's sentient." That revelation made the two generals' eyes widen.
Budo shook his head. "That, can't be possible… How could that be? We would have noticed the energy-" Tatsumi slammed his hands on the table. "Do you even know what the Slate is?! Do you even know where it is?!" Silencing Budo, making him look down at his hands. Looking back up he asked. "Do you know?"
Tatsumi nodded. "Yes I do. The Slate is the object inside the machine that creates the Teigu. It is hidden very well, but I know in what compartment is it in. However I didn't bring you two here for that. The reason is that the Slate… has a powerful abyssal entity inside it… and it has followers. Trying to find out where the Slate is so that they could free their master."
Budo and Esdeath looked at each other with wary eyes. Looking back to Tatsumi, Esdeath asked. "Then what do you propose we do?"
Looking at the two, Tatsumi answered her. "We need to gather the remaining Teigu users. As many as we can, even if you guys have to get help from Night Raid, or even the Revolutionary Army. I don't care if you two don't like the rebels. This is bigger than the threat those two could pose."
Looking at each other again, they looked back again. Budo this time spoke. "What about the Emperor? Shouldn't he know about this as well?" Tatsumi shook his head. "The political and public backlash that Makoto would receive from trying to reach out to the Revolutionary Army or Night Raid would be dangerous. So no. Not now, maybe some time in the future however, Makoto doesn't have a solid hold as the Emperor… and that bastard of a pig Honest would try to take advantage of this. I don't intend to let him."
The two generals nodded. Esdeath spoke out. "I can request the Emperor that maybe I could create a task force of Teigu users to 'deal' with Night Raid's Teigu users, it looks like a good reason." Tatsumi and Budo nodded.
Tatsumi looked at Budo. "I need you to try and find Teigu users, or even find people extremely loyal that could possibly use the Teigus in the Imperial Storage." Budo nodded. "I can do that, but what about you?"
Tatsumi shook his head. "I am managing my Creed of Shadows to dig up as much information about the enemy cult as much as they could. I am also preparing the Onyx Armies and Obsidian Fleets should the need arise… I have enough forces to do a full-frontal assault on twenty Imperial capitals all at once so numbers and quality aren't a problem."
The two generals nodded again. Tatsumi nodded. "That is all I needed to tell you two, we can go back now." He finished as he created another portal. Esdeath and Budo nodded aagain and started walking to the portal, they went in first disappearing into the portal leaving Tatsumi for awhile. "You can come out now." A being of shadows came into existence. "My lord. I come bearing news."
- Back at the palace -
Esdeath and Budo are blinking rapidly with massive sweatdrops. Not believing what the hell is happening in front of them. Sayo is doing a weird dance with a happy face on top of a rying Niro who has a tiny raincloud on top of his head. Makoto, and Nyau are running around the room, running away from an irate looking Lin, as Tadakatsu and River are sitting on their chairs looking at the scene with tired faces, and finally Daidara and Ieyasu are fighting each other in rock, paper, scissors both looking incredibly frustrated.
The two generals quietly looked at each other from the corner of their eyes. "The hell happened here?" Esdeath asked quietly, Budo answered just as quietly. "I don't even want to know what happened..."
Tatsumi came out of the portal. Sweatdropping also at the scene, he looked at the two generals. He quietly called them. "Let us quietly leave them be. Shall we exit this weird scene?" Budo and Esdeath nodded. "Yes, let's." The three warriors started quietly moving away from the scene towards the door.
Tatsumi just shook his head. "That is something you don't see everyday." Tatsumi laughed quietly with a sweatdrop. Drawing an exasperated sigh from Budo, and an amused chuckle from Esdeath.
- Chapter 4 Meet the Siblings End -
Alright! Sorry for not updating quickly, I had to do a lot of things. Things that you guys don't need to know, as I don't think you guys would be interested in my school life.
Anyway I will clarify a few things. Their Teigus.
Sayo's Teigu – Hakugin Koka (Silver Effect) is a bow and quiver teigu, the quiver can create different types of arrows as long as the user imagines what kind of arrow he/she wants. The bow on the other hand has a unique effect, it is as durable as Ina's bow, the user can bypass the quiver and directly create an arrow just like Ina did, however it is much slower than she could do. The bow can also 'lock on' however that can be toggled.
Ieyasu's Teigu – Raiu no Ha (Blade of the Thunderstorm) is a giant grayish white broadsword, with glowing blue lines going along the middle of the blade, with a blue bolt at the guard of the sword. It gives the user the ability to control thunder, that includes thunderstorms (duh), electric currents, and the ability to call lighting from the sky, the blade also gives the user increased precision and speed, reminiscent to a thunderstrike.
Niro's Teigu – Ryuuraito (Dragon's Light) is a strange looking black katana that looks like it eats light, opposite of its name. The blade gives the user the ability to cut rifts into space, allowing for either instant travel or creating an endless space, allowing to destroy the enemy in an excruciating manner. It also gives the user the ability to slightly manipulate gravity, allowing him/her to control gravity allowing him to fly or have his strikes become even heavier.
Lin's Teigu – Satsui no Hado this is just as you think it is, this is from Street fighter, however I have limited it a little. This energy-like Teigu fills the user with an energy of its own, allowing for the user to use the energy to create their own ranged attacks, or even strengthen the strikes of their melee attacks. When fully activated, the user gains a temporary ability to take a lot of damage, and healing and boosting their attack power, however after the effect it makes the user dead tired.
Makoto's Teigu – Eien no Yama (Eternal Mountain) is a teigu that is body and energy oriented. The user is given the ability to manipulate the earth, and plant life, the user can use the properties of a mountain, strengthening their bodies to become as immovable as a mountain. The user can use the power of the Teigu to create earthquakes, or even use the plant life as a weapon, however the Teigu is primarily used for defense, as a mountain is difficult to break.
These five have their Teigus because… well I want them too.
The divisions of Tatsumi's Kurai Kotei.
The Creed of Shadows – Mostly Espionage, Spies and Assassins.
The Onyx Armies – Mostly Ground Units, Warriors, Archers, Gunners, Assault and Sieger Units.
The Obsidian Fleets – Mostly Naval Ships (or Flying Naval Ships), Capital Ships, and Mobile Sea Fortresses, The Schatten-Drache Unendlich is included but classified as a Grand Capital Fortress due to it's sheer size.
The Black Legion – Large contingent of Onyx Armies.
The Oblivion Armada – Large contingent of Obsidian Fleets.
The Black Death – Highest elite Assassin.
The Slate was slightly inspired by the Slates in the anime K or K Project. And I do not own anything as I said.
Anyway I hope this chapter was a good one anyway I hope you guys like it I will update another story next. And remember if you want to review then review, if you don't like it then close this.
Anyway I kept this short and this is The Oblivion Overlord signing out.
