After praying for the passage of Nohime's soul, Oichi directs a cool gaze towards Oda. His back is turned to here with his broad shoulders hunched over his abdomenon. He is driving the blade of Masamune's sword down with his left palm as his right hand is directing the barrell of his gun at Masamune's cracked helmet. "To think that you would be a challenge for me..BAHAHAHA" Gritting his teeth in anger, Masamune tries to push back Oda but struggles to do so. "You should've kicked the bucket by now, you geezer" The weight on Masamune's shoulder lightens. He looks up to find whites of Oda's eyes turning purple around the edges and a strange black wisp wrapping around his neck like an anaconda. "HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! THIS IS MY FIGHT!" As Kaede stands beside her in a daze, Oichi turns her head away from Oda prevent herself from crying. Masamune's words don't reach her as she can only think about concentrating enough power on killing off her brother. This was a strange moment in which she couldn't figure if she felt joy on her liberation from her brother's tyranny or a bitter sadness for having to end the life of her own brother, as terrible as he may be. The tension between her temples finally ease up as Oda slumps off dead over Masamune's shoulder. "DAMNIT!" Masamune grudgingly pushes Oda's heavy body aside then marches towards Oichi. Kaede places his arm in front of Oichi, preventing Masamune to draw near her. Oichi nonchalantly pushes Kaede's arm aside, "It's fine Kaede" she mutters quietly. Masamune scoffs "Forget it" and marches away from the two. Kaede wraps his arm around Oichi and directs her to a dirt path leading into the thick of the mountains. Together they find safety in the depths of the mountains. With the passing of Oda, the remaining warlords continue their fight for the expansion of their territory.
