Hello my fellow readers! Sorry that I haven't really been keeping in touch with you guys throughout the story, and that this chapter is a little later than the others. Anyways, this is the last chapter of Crimson I, sorry that its a little short but its mostly an action chapter. Enjoy!

I saw the nearest man to me fire exactly thirteen bullets into my body and kill me. Before that happened I tore my blade from its sheath, deflecting each bullet. Before he could fire any more I charged, slicing his gun, and arm, in half. He bled out, stumbling backwards. I finished him off by slicing him diagonally in half.

I was surrounded by several men already, all poised to fire their guns. I saw myself completely overtaken by the bullets and die. Memorizing the direction each bullet came from, I blocked each shot, not taking a single one.

They began to reload, and I took this opportunity.

The bottom half of my blade is thicker and bigger, whereas the top half is thinner and smaller. At the middle point the top half retracts into the bottom half of the blade to fit into my sheath, but it can also extend out from there.

I swung my blade to the side, causing it to extend and reach the nearest man. I severed him on it, then spun around, dragging my blade with me and cutting everyone in half. They collapsed to the ground in bloody heaps.

I saw one man approaching me, drawing his blade and charging. I swung my blade around my head, lopping the top half of his head clean off.

Looking up at the balcony, I saw Mr. Fall still standing there, a panicked look spread across his face. He glanced right and left, then pulled out a radio to call reinforcements. Either he didn't want to fight or he was incapable.

I grabbed the ball at the end of my sword hilt in one hand, let go with the other, and initiated the transformation. The blade split down the middle, through the hilt and to the bottom ball in my hand. A long tight string stretched out between either end of the separated blade, creating a bow. Lastly, an arrow dropped down from the inside of the blade into place. I always had an arrow hidden inside, in case of emergencies.

I caught the arrow, aiming it up at Mr. Fall. I saw him easily avoid the arrow by moving his head aside. So I aimed enough to the side so that he wouldn't see any danger, but enough to startle him and allow me another shot on his head.

I aimed and released. Sure enough he jumped and fell to the ground, panting. I drew another arrow from the quiver attached to the top of my sheath and put it into place.

Just then I felt someone grab me from behind. I dropped Arkynshihn and was dragged backwards.

Quickly regaining my balance, I swung my head back, breaking his nose against the back of it. He let go, stumbling backwards. I drew my knife and whipped it into his skull. He fell backwards, blood spilling out from his forehead.

I spun around, immediately faced by another man. He swung a short sword at me, and I ducked to avoid it. Punching him in the chest, I knocking the wind out of him. I stood as he was catching his breath and broke his neck.

I grabbed Arkynshihn and retracted it into a blade, charging up the stairs to the balcony. Mr. Fall was already gone, likely into the next room.

I ran through the door, seeing four men standing before me in a large room. Each was equipped with interestingly colored armor and weapons. Each weapon was the same, which was a katana. Mr. Fall stood at the end of the room.

"I'll kill you" I said, pointing my sword forward and charging into the group. I was stopped by the first two men. I clashed blades with the first one, sparks flying around us. Dodging to the side, I evaded a long whip. Looking closer, each katana was divided into sections along the blade which separated, turning them into bladed whips. Furthermore, at the tip of the blade instead of a sharp point was a small barrel. Gun-whip katana, I thought, didn't see that coming.

I kicked the first guy aside, then turned to the second man approaching me. He swung his katana, causing it to extend. Pulling a trigger, he fired a round at me from the tip. I dodged just in time; rolling to the side and swinging my blade as I went, cutting his leg clean off. He tumbled to the ground.

Before I could finish him off I saw someone attack from behind. Spinning around, I swung my sword as I went and sliced straight through his katana and his body, causing him to fall to the ground and blood to pour out.

The next two men approached me, swinging both their katanas in synch, making them more difficult to avoid. I always had to dodge two blades, two whips, or two bullets at once. Finally their blades came from either direction. I ducked down and the blades looped around. I knew that they would avoid their own blades but still hoped to see them kill each other.

Standing and turning to face them, I flipped my blade into a bow and hooked it around someone's head. Shutting the bow into a blade, I decapitated the first man.

I stabbed my blade forward, over the first man as he fell and died, and plunged it into the second man's gut. He stopped for a second, and I transformed my blade into a bow, ripping him in half.

I turned to Mr. Fall, ready to fight him.

He was nowhere to be found.

So what did you all think? I know its a cliffhanger with lot's of unanswered questions, but Gazini's story will continue in Crimson II. Please favorite, follow or just read it, the view count is still motivation. Seriously guys, you are awesome. Already I have 427 views! Now I know that that's not a lot but everyone starts out small right?

Anyways, I'm extremely excited to continue with the story and for those people who have been consistently reading this I hope you are too. Whether you like it or not this story's going straight to the very end, there's no way I'm going to just give up on it. However, this will be the last chapter for a little while as I was working on another story before this and haven't quite finished it.

Anyways, thanks for reading and please give me feedback in the reviews, everything is appreciated. I'll see you all later in Pink I!
