Chapter 1 : A Past better left buried

-=(Music)=-

10 years ago…

A dark silhouette slices his way through the cloak of the night. The air around him feels thicker, heavier, his smell expose a foul stench of death. The surrounding has gone quiet, lifeless… Animals and insect don’t make mistakes, they know he is dangerous. He sits on the branch of a tree, a perfect location to watch what he was looking for… a little isolated farm, with two main building surrounded by a forest.

-Tonight’s the night… You’ve mocked the Ikaru family for the last time!

A dozen more figures appear around the Mysterious man.

- You sure it’s the right one boss?
- Yeah?
- Remember last time? With the Orphans house
- Hahaha
- Yeah! That was Hilarious

-SHUT UP YOU FOOLS! This IS the right house, there is no mistake

-Sorry Boss
-Sorry!
-Yeah!

The followers clearly fear their leaders, even together, they wouldn’t stand a chance. Suddenly , they jump on the ground, landing in front the farm. The sound of a hundred footsteps makes its way to the Master Chamber, waking the owner, a simple and humble man. He takes the only weapon at his disposal, a wooden katana...

As one of the assassin opens the door, the farmer kicks it, knocking him away, He then steps outside…

-My name is Daisuke Kibagami, State your purpose!

He points his Wooden Katana at the leader, confident of his own skill.

-I Said STATE YOUR PURPO---

*SLLLLLLLLLLING * The assassin boss strike swiftly with his, weapon... too fast to understand what he did exacly...

The farmer kneels on the ground paralyzed at the sight of his own arm falling down. The leader of the assassins approaches him and whispers to his ear…

-So you’re not so arrogant now are you?... You and your family will pay for what you've done!

Behind a window, a young boy is watching as the scene goes by. He remains unoticed. Suddenly his mother appears behind him and ask what’s happening, he points outside, speechless. The woman watches for a few seconds and start crying, She then Runs outside to help the man…

- Daisuke!

*SLLLLIIIINGGG*

She falls on the ground, her face lying in her own blood… she’s dead. One of the assassins slowly pulls his blade out of her back.

-Hahah, that’s what I call fun!

-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Daisuke screams at the lost of his beloved, he then crawls back inside his house, searching for something. The assassins simply watch him and laugh for they know he’s not going anywhere far in this condition. The farmer found what he was looking for, His children… A young boy and an older girl. The young boy was already awake…

- Jubei! Take your sister and RUN!
- But Father?!
- Do as I said JUBEI!

Against his will, the young boy wakes his sister and takes her outside to the forest. The man is now alone in his farm with the killers. Even tho he lost a lot of blood, he is still standing, ready to confront the intruders once again.

Jubei and his sister are running through the forest…

-Jubei? What Happened?
-Fat…Father…He’s fighting against dangerous men… THEY CUT HIS ARM!
-WHAT?!?

The two kids stop running, and then the elder sister put her hand on Jubei’s shoulder…

-You stay here, everything will be fine, I promise…

She then leaves the boy alone with his hopes, running to her father. After a few minutes of thinking, the boy decides to go back to the farm, to help his family. As he run towards his house, he hears screaming… It’s his sister! She’s being hanged by the assassins while the leader is beating a layer of flesh that uses to be Jubei’s father. The young boy was too late…

The raiders light their torches… Blood red flames lit the night… the assassins burned everything on their path, no clues were left behind… From the nearby woods, the boy watched as all he knew was taking away, his whole life was crushed to ashes…

He was now alone…

Coming soon...

Chapter 2 : The things we cannot change

-=(Music)=-

6 Years Later

On a sunny day, a young samurai walks on a dirt road in a canyon, heading toward an unknown location, even for him. He walks slowly while eating a rice ball. His long dark hair faintly touches his Katana with every breeze, a sword he keeps on his shoulders by holding a thin metal wire attached to the handle. He wears a straw hat which cast a strong shadow on his face, masking his identity. A little further on the same road roams a gang of bandits looting and killing all in their path. As they were counting their loot from a previous raid, the young samurai appears on their horizon.

-Look! I think we’ve got another one!
-Yeah!
-Let’s go get him!
-YAAAAAAAH!

The four bandits put themselves between the Samurai and his destination. He looks at all of them then nods he’s head…

-Hello Gentlemen.

He continues walking as nothing ever happened, leaving the bandits insulted and annoyed.

-You! Wait a second, we’re not done here!
-Huh? Well…? How can I help you?

The samurai stops and turns toward the bandits… taking his hats off to show his face. He doesn’t show any fear, his drowsy blue eyes show sign of tiredness. He’s got an innocent smile on his face, he walks as if he had a shield around him, blocking the reality of the surrounding world, or the situation he’s in. The bandits see this as an opportunity and decide to take their chance against a tired young samurai.

-=(Music)=-

As they draw their weapons, so does the samurai, but a lot faster. He slices the first enemy in half, which falls on the grounds powerless as he watches his legs in the wrong direction. The second bandits had a better starting position for the attack, he was behind the samurai, but that didn’t save him from loosing his head. After the samurai finished slicing the pervious enemy, he continued he’s rotation to hit the bandits behind him. As both enemies’ pieces falls on the ground, the samurai takes a defensive stance, ready for the next wave.

The two remaining bandits have more experience; they didn’t rush into action not because they were scarred, but because they know it's foolish to attack without a single information on their opponent.

-You Will Regret This!

Waving their sword in the air, the bandits boast to gain a momentum. The samurai, not impressed, awaits steadily his opponent's next move. Both bandits strikes at the same time, engaging the samurai from 2 driffent angle. He quickly empale one bandits, and uses him as a human shield while his blade is still stock inside him. As the bandit screams for help, he's partner accidently kills him by trying to get the samurai. Two blades are now stock inside the dead bandit, he's lifeless corpse hang over the ground. The two remaining oponents stare at one another keeping their blades steady in their hands. The Samurai kicks the corpse toward his partner, making him go further onto his blade, and leaving the samurai's katana free. He uses this oportunity to strike at the remaining bandit, and dont miss. After slicing the bandit from his wraist to his neck, the samurai stops besides him and hold his shoulder...

-*Cough* Who Ar...Arr....are y...You? *cough*
- My name is Jubei Kibagami... Now rest... you've earned it.

The bandits falls on the ground, half a second after his stomach and lungs, which makes a nice cushion for him to land on.

-=(Music)=-

Jubei watches the new bloody landscape he just created. A masterpeice of horror left for everyone to enjoy. He turns around and sees more blood... along with the remains of the bandits. As he takes back his hat he had prevously dropped on the ground, he looks at his hands, which are covered in blood. For a moment, the Samurai is lost, he falls on the ground shaking, remembering what happent in his past... what made him who he was... he remembered the things he could not change...

Coming soon :

Chapter 3 - Trapped in a nightmare of forgotten dreams.

Chapter 3 : Trapped in a nightmare of forgotten dreams.

A Few days later

-=(Music)=-

The moonlight shines over the horizon... its beauty reflected on the oceans is like twin angels staring at one another. The stars compliment its prettyness like dimonds make a women more lovely. Everything is perfect, but not inside the head of a sleeping samurai in an abandonned shack. He dreams of chaos and blood... he dreams of tears and steel... he dreams of his past and whats been taking from him... Over and over the images of his family being murdered blink in his head... Hell would seem like a nice place for the young man...

Jubei wakes up in sweat and tears. Troubled by his nightmare. They have become more frequent and intrusive. For a second, the samurai doesnt seem to know where he is. His heart beat races through his chest and echoes like the drums of a war lord. He's hungry.... hungry for blood... hungry for revenge... he holds his sword close to his heart so it can share his feelings.... steel... hes only friend... the young man may not know where he is, but he definetly knows what he wants... the blood thats been taken from him... each drops of tears are sliced cold by the sword... like his dreams were by his tragic past.

-=(Music)=-

The next morning, jubei set out for the wind country, where he hopes he will find clues on the whereabouts of his familys murderers. A long road is ahead of him... The sky is clear of troubles like the mind of the samurai, for once. For weeks the young man walks... He walks through the heights of the moutain, on the top of the world. In the deepest region of the forests, where no light shines. In the darkest swamps, amongs the worst creature in the world... Nothing stops the samurai from reaching his destination. His will is set in stone, like his past he cannot change... His destiny is clear, like the tears he wipes every night...

On his journey he met manys foes and friends... he fought wild creatures and bandits... he saw lands he never saw before... beauties that even words cant explain... he traveled among wanderers and traders... refugees and farmers... for every day he walked, he was one step closer to the truth... or so he thought... At the border of the fire country and the wind country, Jubei sits on the edge of a cliff, where he can see the endless desert in front of him... He takes a map out of his pocket, a map with all countries... The wind country and 2 more are the only one without and X on it. This is it... his destination...

After a good night of sleep and a few hours of walk, Jubei enters the first city in the wind country...

-=(Music)=-

As Jubei walks in the city, hundreds of people fills the streets, walking towards their destination. A beautyful city created with sand and rocks. Unique in its design, its culture... For a land blend in one color, they sure know how to make it more lovely. Tapisry everwhere... purple, red, blue and gold... walls are covered with exquisite ornements, even the dress the women wears are diffrent, elegant. The tight alleys gives a more intimate touch to the city, which is covered with decorations and filled with temples to buff the plain look of sand... This city is one of a kind... merchants everywhere selling golds and weapon... jewelry and trinckets...

The young man ask questions to all merchants and peasant he can find.

"Have You Heard of the Ikaru Family?"

"Does Ikaru rings a bell to you?"

"Sir! Excuse me Sir! can you tell me where i can find the Ikaru family?"
After asking for over a hundred person, the young samurai started to loose all his hopes... he sits on a bench in a dark alley to be alone... suddenly, a figures appears behind Jubei and holds him with a knife to his throat...

"So you want to find the Ikaru family?" - says a feminine voice
