Dragon of Echigo

Golden Light {Kenshin and Oichi}

Only selfish men would talk in such way. What is there to protect when they did nothing but destroy the other people, to take over their possessions, their lives, their wives, their future children, taking them and turning all of this into nothing but servants. They had selfish hearts just like her brother. For being the god of war only meant he also was bringer of destruction to the weak inferior lords absorbing their lands. One does not simply gain a titled out of ‘kindness’ she knew very well he along with other lords were eager of going to war using the lives of their army as weapons.

"Kenshin-sama doubts Ichi, he doesn’t believe she only wants to bring justice. His heart falters to the sound of her breathing." The breeze that freely chased leaves that fell down oak trees that surrounded them felt cold as winter. The clouds began to crowd on top of the both of them covering the rays of sun of that evening.

The demon queen mumbled to herself as she finally took a step closer, only to unleash darkness from behind her, demonic tormented souls began to appear all around tinting in black the field under her feet. Looking like hands demonic dark fingers caressed the closest ratio around the woman.

"Animals do struggle before their lives are put to end. But their souls are released from carnal suffering." A giggle could be heard and yet another step taken from the woman closer to where the other ones. "Nagamasa-sama will not judge as unjust the acting of his wife for his light surrounds her and will overcome the darkness of the heart of lord Kenshin."

——“Ichi will too, put ending to your suffering and release your soul from sorrow, but for that—-you need to die.”

Kenshin could hardly believe that this was real. That this was not a nightmare. The leaves battered around this way and that, a cold breeze blowing through the graveyard of animals. And yet, it was not the kind of breeze Kenshin liked. It was too cold. Deathly cold. If Kenshin had any chance to escape he would have taken it, but he did not know how quickly she could move.... "I assure you there is no darkness in this heart... However... If fighting cannot be avoided.... If I must take up arms to defend myself from you then..." Kenshin bowed his head, before taking an open battle position. He could tel the gears were turning in that head of hers. She was judging him, sizing him up. She truly believed he was some sort of devil. It sort of... hurt him she felt that way. And yet he knew he could not let that get to him.

It was so odd. She acted as a broken doll at times but she was no idiot. No, indeed. If he wasn't careful... Well he didn't want to think about that. "Prepare yourself Lady Oichi. I will not die today. I have too much that is precious to me."

"Om Vaisravana Bishamonten."

An awfully strange system, as far as he could tell, but at least someone seemed to know what was up, that was more than he could say a moment ago. Sasuke listened intently, eyes shifting down the surrounding streets. Everything about this was strange, really. The sooner he accepted that much, the better.

No point in beating around the bush, even if this situation was… strange, likely for the both of them. But there were certainly worse allies to have, of that he was sure. "In that case, I seem to be in M-5, if that tells you anything." From his earlier description, he had a vague idea of what it might mean, but… better not to jump to conclusions just yet.

#[I'm alive! PLEASE DON'T ABANDON ME]#[oh hey but you were out of town too!]#kagemoguri

It was certainly odd to be assisting a ninja that was his rival's vassal- let alone a ninja that gave his own beloved blade such a rough time. But things were different here, and Sasuke seemed like a good enough man. There was nothing to fear, he supposed.

Besides, he figured his iai was quicker than Sasuke's shurikenjutsu...~

"Ah well, that means you live in... district 5, on... erm... floor M of the apartment building." Kenshin was here for over a month now and he still had no real way to properly describe an apartment. "It is, essentially... A tall building, with a stairwell and a level and pulley system called an elevator. These are used to get to each floor. Each floor has a general living space with an icebox called a refrigerator and a kitchen, and doors leading to sleeping chambers.

OOC; collapse of the mewshu

Okay i'm going to bed now. I should be on for more Meme Sunday fun in the morning/afternoon though.

I should also note I'm going to be at Otakon from this thursday to sunday, so I won't be on at all then. No computer and even if I had it I'd only have computer time on Thursday night. I don't think 4 days of inactivity is enough to declare a semi-hiatus, so... Just a heads up to people I'm threading with.

Well damn that week went by really freakin’ fast.

I’ll be posting as Ranmaru and Kenshin soonish. I feel really out of it so I’m gonna rest a bit first but I promise I’ll be on the replies I know about as soon as possible. Also if I owe you a reply, message me or like this post. Or something.

So he hadn’t been here for long, either. Still, that was more direction than Sasuke’d had moments ago, so he wasn’t about to complain. Odd as it was to accept help from Kenshin, of all people, it was still something of a relief. Surely it wouldn’t take long for him to get his footing in this new place, but for now… well, this would have to do.

Rather than answer right away, he let himself drop from his perch, landing at the base of the post. Well, if nothing else, he had to admit this place had plenty of high places for him to tangle with, foreign as they were.

"That’s probably the best offer I’ve heard all day, Lord Kenshin." With a sigh, he rose to his feet, still casting the occasional cautious glance around. "I’m looking for the housing in this… city, is it? I don’t suppose that’s too far out of your way, right?"

#oh good then!#kagemoguri

"Yes, this is indeed a city, hard as it is to believe," Kenshin replied, nodding at the shinobi as he stood. Out of learned instinct, as a lord in an era of ninja assassinations, Kenshin kept his eyes on Sasuke- if he knew what he was doing, he'd tear his eyes away out of respect. "Six sectors, each with an apartment building, a box town, and an underground area with living spaces. If you tell me where you were assigned, I'd be able to guide you."

It was a bit odd he was helping a ninja of the Takeda, admittedly. But he supposed old rivalries and enmities had to be wiped clean here. It was not the subjects against one another that should be the goal, but the subjects against the scientists, if there was to be any fighting at all.

The sudden stop the other one had made her wonder what had gone wrong, weren’t they just walking out of this place? Why did he have to stop in his tracks? Hurt him, she wouldn’t want to hurt him?

"Ichi doesn’t understand what Kenshin-sama mean by that." Did he want to get hurt, but why would she hurt him for no reason? Why did he seem to be afraid of her. Nonsense, did he want to get rid of her in this place now? Ichi is eternal he won’t get to put an end to her life because he simply felt like it.

The Oda woman turned around only to realise that his hand now was placed on his own weapon, no reason for such reaction…. That’s it! That’s why he is getting mad, he didn’t think Ichi knew how to bring justice, he wasn’t on Nagamasa’s side, no. He lied all along, he wanted to stop her from bringing peace and justice to the less fortunate ones. Lying, he lied all along because nothing mattered to him more than become the lord of lands that did not belong to him. Just like her lord brother.

"God of war’s drive is his selfishness, he cares nothing but to own more lands." The tone in her voice changed drastically as she said this. He didn’t believe in justice, he was unjust, and unjust people deserved to die, just like Nobunaga, her lord brother, died because he was unjust, brought nothing but misery to everyone around him. She dared not to talk back but she had to save his soul, the soul of her beloved brother, and still. He was the owner of hell, he desired nothing more than destroy this world.

As the minutes went by, the shadow that followed the sister of Oda Nobunaga began to be more consistent and clear, souls from hell coming to her. Hands that would move by themselves and reach out to destroy whatever they found in their way. “Kenshin-sama is unjust… he made the souls from hell taste hatred again." it wasn’t a matter of her brother commanding her to kill or not, it was the fact that he, the god of war decided to show his true self in that very moment, triggering the murderous unstable state of the wife of lord Azai.

#sorry it isn't as long as yours #;w;#melancholichi

Kenshin acted too soon it seemed, and triggered her madness to even further manifest itself. The man couldn't be blamed- she was hard to read when she was like this. Nonetheless he cursed himself... he'd hoped to avoid this. "My only desire is to protect my people and those precious to me..." he retorted, "But, I can tell you won't listen to me Oichi. You have no reason to. So I apologize but... if you attack me, you'll leave me with no choice but to defend myself."

Kenshin's face had become cold and stony, as it was in combat with anyone who wasn't Shingen or someone equally worthy. It hid his fear. Kenshin was not afraid of much, but the powers of the beyond Oichi possessed were worthy of his ire. It was not death itself he feared- but the pain he'd feel with it, and those he'd leave behind. So he was not about to let himself be harmed, if he could help it.

"Oichi, I implore you... please don't attack me. I promise I only intend to lead you to Nagamasa, that's all. But I will attack you if you attack me."

"It’s no problem~" Nowi didn’t really mind using her money anyway since all she ever bought were food items and game items. Working two jobs, she had a lot to spare. At saying he’d pay her back she just shook her head. “No worries! You’re going to play with Nowi after all~ and think of the Go set as a gift to celebrate our new friendship~" So that he can play Go with whoever he came across.

Of course, Nowi had no idea what was going on with Kenshin and the cashier. All was on her mind was finding the game that they were going to play. Looking through aile, after aisle, she finally found a box that had Go on it. She brought it over to Kenshin for confirmation. “Is this it?"

#crap sorry im behind #wantsafamily

The two men stopped arguing when the youthful manakete approached them. "Ah, yes, that's exactly it," Kenshin replied, smiling at the girl and taking it from her, placing it on the counter. "Now, Nowi, you said you want to pay for it yes?" "Lady, you disgust me." Kenshin looked from Nowi to the cashier, who had spoken to him rather rudely- and got his gender wrong. "Excuse me?"

"First you put her in that get up, then you make her pay for her own crap. Huh. I oughta have you arrested, chick." "I still don't see what you're going on about... But if you're not going to take her money, then I don't see any reason for us to stand here being insulted!" Kenshin squinted at the man, something in his gaze giving the man the willies. The worker gave Nowi the receipt and waited for her to hand over the money. "That's better...~"

[[ You do a great job, really, with your Kenshin. I can't think of anything constructive to say otherwise, so keep it up~. ]]

[[Thank you so much~. I could say the same of your Motonari.

Sasuke had to pause for a moment, just blinking at who he had come across. Of all people… well, at least it was a familiar face. That was more than he could say for most of his encounters so far. Besides, if the War God was here, that meant…

He was quick to push aside those thoughts. Having seen no sign of his own master yet, right now there was no reason to believe anyone had been that lucky. Besides, were she here, no doubt she’d be somewhere nearby—and like hell would he fail to take notice of that.

"Lord.. Kenshin. So you were brought here, too." What was he supposed to say? Considering the normally war-like climate between them, this was.. strange, to say the least. Still, he supposed this was better than many other faces he could have run into.

Relaxing a bit on his perch, Sasuke let a faint smile cross his lips. Might as well play friendly, at least until their situation could be straightened out. "This will probably seem strange, coming from a ninja, but I don’t suppose you know your way around here, do you?" Was worth a shot, anyway.
