Chapter 041
The Danger Of Tomorrow
Akita lays Kingsman head on his pillow and she cuddles next to him as she lays next to him she starts to fall asleep but Kingsman starts twitching and she sits up and can see his arm start to cover with his darkness and she says
“Kingsman calm down, I know your strong enough to keep control over yourself” But his darkness keeps rising until she grabs his arm and says
“I know the man you are, you won’t lose, you never lose, you have to fight it! Please…For me” His darkness stops rising and he stops twitching and Akita pulls Kingsman head and places it back on her lap and starts playing with his hair as she says
“I’m trying my best to help you, but I truly don’t understand everything you’ve been through to help you the best I can” Kingsman's face starts twitching as his mouth slightly open and he *softly* whispers
“I” Akita is *shocked* and says
“Huh?” Kingsman *softly* whispers
“You” Akita leans close to Kingsman’s mouth and says
“Me what?” Kingsman *softly* whispers
“Your…All I have left” Akita says
“Kingsman!?” Kingsman *softly* whispers
“My family died… Because of me” Akita *gasps* but Kingsman *softly* whispers
“I should have stopped them” Akita is *confused* and says
“Stopped who?” Kingsman *softly* whispers
“The…Golden Order'' Akita says
“It’s not your fault, all of this happened back when you were a child. Whoever they are I know you fought with everything you could” Kingsman *softly* whispers
“I’m…locked in a prison in my mind, but I deserve this for failing my brother and father” Akita is *confused* and says
“ I…Uh…Is this you Kingsman?” Kingsman *softly* whispers
“This is…My true mind, I need you Akita. I need you too get me the–” Kingsman abruptly sits up with his eyes closed and he snatches The Cursed Kunai out of his chest and he throws The Cursed Kunai into the wall cracking it and he falls back down into Akita's lap and his eyes slowly open as he sits up and is *confused* as he grabs his head and says
“What happened?” Akita says
“I helped you'' Kingsman looks back at Akita and says
“Akita? When did you get here?” Akita says
“I’ve been here, and I brought you up here” Kingsman stands up but as he touches his stomach he *winches in pain* and he pulls up his shirt and sees a stab wound and Kingsman is *shocked* and says
“Did you stab me?” Akita is *shocked* and says
“Uhh,yes but no, but–” Kingsman gets *angry* and says
“I trusted you, how could you!? After everything I've done to protect you, this is how you repay me!" Kingsman darkness surges around him and Akita is *scared* but says
"Wait, no...I was trying to-" But Kingsman turns around and leaves the room slamming the door behind him and Akita gets up and runs after him saying
“Wait Kingsman it’s not what you–” But as she opens the door Kingsman standing in the doorway *smiling* and he says
“I know, thank you” Akita hugs him and says
“Why do you always have to do that to me?” Kingsman says
“I have to keep you on your toes” She stomps on his and he *screams in pain* as he holds his foot and Akita says
“Now I’m on yours” Akita lets go of Kingsman and walks downstairs and sits at the table and Kingsman walks downstairs and he walks to the backdoor but he stops and says
"Be careful, even when I was unconscious I could sense something" Akita says
"All right, I'll make sure me and Hana are careful. But you need to be careful as well" Kingsman says
"No I don't, I'm the strongest" Kingsman walks out of the back door and Akita *sighs* and thinks
"I love you, but your going to get yourself killed with that mentality. So I'll just have to keep protecting-" Suddenly Akita hears Kingsman *scream in pain* from outside and Akita stands up and rushes to the backdoor but as she opens it she sees Kingsman on his knees with two men holding his arms and another one in front of him with a sword and Akita screams
"NO!" Akita rushes the men and tries to punch the one with the sword but she phases through him and falls on the ground and she hears *laughing* from behind her but as she turns around Kingsman is standing up alone and *laughing* as he stands over her but she *smiles* and thinks
“He’s finally back to his old self!” Kingsman pulls Akita up to her feet but he scopes her legs and picks her up as he jumps into the air but Akita doesn’t scream, she just keeps *smiling* as she stares at him and Kingsman lands in the middle of the village and Kenzo and Kaito are talking while drinking sake as Kingsman and Akita lands next to them, Kenzo and Kaito both looks over and see Kingsman and Kingsman sits Akita down as Kaito and Kenzo both stand up and walk towards him but Kingsman suddenly tackles the both of them down to the ground and Kingsman runs up to the table and grabs the sake and starts to run away as he's drinking it but he’s stops in his tracks as Kenzo gets up and brushes himself off and walks up to Kingsman and says
“I see your back to your old self” Kenzo punches him in the stomach and grabs the sake out of his hand and sits back down but as he does Kingsman falls to the ground spitting up the sake he drank and Kingsman slowly starts to get up but Kaito walks up and kicks Kingsman in his back making him fall face first on the ground and Kaito grab Kingsman’s leg and Kaito says
“Can I have a little help?” Kenzo says
“Of course my lord” Kenzo gets up and grab Kingsman’s other leg and they both run off pull him all around the village until there back where they starts and as they let go Kingsman spits up dirt and stands up and Kaito says
“Now we're even” Kingsman *coughs up dirt* as he says
“I don’t understand why everybody is so aggressive today” Kenzo says
“You tried to steal from me!” Kaito says
“You dragged me through the dirt!” Kingsman says
“Technically I own everything in this village so I was taking my sake, and we helped you get to the hideout faster” Kenzo says
“I payed for it so it belongs to me” Kingsman says
“And you are a very generous person so I know you will share” Kenzo says
“Not with you, your a bit of an alcoholic. Plus you need to work on your physics, when you were younger you used to say you wanted a physic like your brother. You need to start working out a bit more, you're a bit fluffy” Kenzo sits the sake down and Kingsman says
“My training isn’t the issue, if I was anybody else I’d have the greatest physic in the world but because of certain issues I need to have my sake close to my hand. And plus he is a bigger alcoholic than me” Kingsman points behind them and Kenzo and Kaito look behind them but Kingsman opens up a small portal underneath the sake dropping it inside but it pops right back out landing in the same spot and Kaito and Kenzo turn back around and Kenzo says
"I'm shocked, I was ready to break your hand when you reached for it. But you have grown much self control" Kaito says
“I thought he was going to take it as well, but who are you talking?” Kingsman says
“Akita…Yep she’s a massive alcoholic” Akita is *shocked* as she walks up behind him and says
“No I’m not!” Kingsman turns to her and says
“Of course you're not'' But Kingsman turns back to Kenzo and Kaito as he mouths
“Yes she is” Kenzo says
“How are you doing Akita? It has been some time since we last spoke, and plus you've had to live with...Him” Kingsman says
"Hey! At least I have a wife!" Kenzo says
"Did she become you're wife before or after you abducted her?" Kingsman says
"Actually I was the one who was abducted, I passed out on the side of the road and I woke up on a couch with her. I'm the victim!" Akita is *shocked* and says
"I helped you, you we're going to get killed if I didn't help you!" Kingsman *laughs* and says
"Did I also need you to strip me!? Would I have died if I kept my clothes on?" Kenzo and Kaito *laughs* as Akita turns red from *embarrassment* but she says
"Don't say it like that!" Kingsman *smiles* and says
"How would you like me to say it, you took my clothes off while I was unconscious" Akita says
"You we're bleeding, and the cuts we're going to get infected" Kingsman says
"Sure, but why did you need to cuddle up next to me as I slept?" Akita is *shocked* and says
"I didn't!" Kingsman says
"So I didn't wake up with you right next to me" Akita says
"No...Well yes...But I didn't sleep next to you-" Kingsman says
"Thank you, for finally admitting it" Akita says
"No! I didn't admit anything, I slept on the floor when I went to sleep but then I woke up next to you" Kingsman puts his arm around her pulling her close and says
"So your body wanted to violate me more than your mind did" Akita says
"No!" Kenzo *laughs* and says
"Back to our conversation, how have you been Akita?" Akita turns to Kenzo and says
"I have been good and I hope you have as well, and I hope your finding new things to put in your library” Kenzo says
"Thank you, and I have been doing very well. And I have been gaining new knowledge to add to my library, you can come and visit anytime. I've always needed a successor" Kingsman says
"So your trying to steal my wife and make her your successor!" Kingsman pushes Akita off of him as his darkness starts surging and Kenzo stands up and says
"Do you truly wish to do this again my lord?" Kaito stands up as his Icy Sun Flames also surge around him and they all share at each other and Akita says
"There's no need to fight" Kingsman says
"It's not going to be a fight-" Kaito says
"It's going to be a massacre-" Kenzo says
"With only the strongest left standing" Akita says
"All of you are going to destroy the village if you fight here, you can't!" Kingsman looks at her and says
"Your right" Kenzo says
"To the skies?" Kaito *smiles* and says
"To the skies!" Kingsman and Kaito all float off of the ground with there darkness and Icy Sun Flames and Kenzo stretches his legs but as he jumps, Akita is *shocked* as she sees him go extremely high into the air past the clouds and as he comes down he lands softly back on the ground and Kingsman says
"You ready?" Kenzo says
"Always" Akita says
"Stop! Why do you always have to fight just to solve your issues?" Kingsman,Kaito and Kenzo looks at Akita and Kenzo says
"We're warriors!" Kaito says
"We're men!" Kingsman says
"We're animals!" Akita says
"Can't you just be civilized people?" Kingsman says
"If we were civilized we wouldn't have control over the world like we do, but since your crying we'll just sit down and talk" Kenzo says
"This is the first time I've ever seen you back down from a fight, seems like your the one getting soft" Kingsman says
"No old man, I'm simply allowing you to breathe for another day" Kenzo *laughs* and says
"As if you could stop it, do not forget the two of you still haven't beaten me" Kingsman says
"I've never been going all out old man!" Kenzo *laughs* and says
"It's cute if you think I've ever given either of you more than fifty percent" Kaito sits down and says
"Fifty? Neither of you have truly got twenty-five percent" Kingsman says
"Let's settle it right-" But Akita steps in front of him and covers Kingsman's mouth as she says
"Kaito, how has Akemi and Emi been?" Kaito says
"They are doing well, but Emi might be starting to develop a cold. And Akemi becoming anxious but other than that they are well" Kingsman *laughs* and moves Akita's hand as he says
"He's calm now, but the moment she sneezes to hard he is going to come running to us about how to make her better" Kaito says
“Just like how you we're when Hana got her allergies and Akita was sick" Kingsman pulls his sword out of the darkness on his hand and he points his sword at Kaito and says
"Open your mouth again and I'll put you down!" Kaito says
"Embarrassed that the big bad Kingsman, needed help handling his precious daughter" Kingsman throws his sword at Kaito but he's able to dodge it and Kaito *laughs* as he says
The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
"What!? You can bring up my daughter, but when I bring up yours it's an issue" Kingsman snaps as his sword flies back to his hand and Kingsman *smiles* and says
"Your playing a dangerous game Kaito, and I promise you won't win" Kaito says
"Speaking of my niece, where is she?” Kingsman says
“Where’s mine?” Kaito says
“Sleeping with her mother” Kingsman opens a portal into Hana’s room and sees her sleeping on Tadashi’s back and he says
“Sleeping” He closes the portal and Kaito *laughs* as he says
“You needed a portal to know where your kid was, do you even know where my nephews are?” Kingsman *smiles* and says
“Look up” Kaito looks up and sees Kenji,Itsuki and Dai standing on the roofs around them and they all drop down and Dai walks up to Kingsman and looks him in his eyes as he punches him in the stomach and Kingsman drops to one knee from Dai's punch and Dai shakes his head in *disappointment* and says
“We’re done, your no longer my Sensei” But as he tries to pull his fist out of Kingsman’s stomach, he can’t and he looks at Kingsman’s face but Kingsman is *smiling* and suddenly he starts to fades away and as he does Dai is able to see Kaito caught his hand and Kingsman walks out from behind Kaito and Kingsman knees Dai in the stomach dropping him to the floor and Kingsman says
“I tried to give you one free hit, but you couldn’t get it. It won’t happen again” Dai gets up and looks at Kingsman and *smiles*, Itsuki says
“Seems like your back to normal Sensei” Kingsman walks up to Kenji and notices Kenji's eyes are completely healed and he puts his hands on Kenji's shoulder and says
"You good?" Kenji *smiles* and says
"Yeah" Kingsman says
"It's a shame about your body healing that scar, you could have looked really dangerous with it. But now you're just stuck with that face" Kingsman *laughs* and Kenji tries to punch him but Kingsman catches his fist and twists it as Kingsman turns to Itsuki and says
“I’ve always been normal, just a small issue with my anger. Sometimes I just randomly lash out” Kingsman punches Kenji in the stomach sending him flying and Kenji slams into the ground passing out and Kingsman says
“It’s like I can’t control myself” Kingsman rushes up and punches Dai in the stomach and Dai falls to the ground *holding his stomach in pain* and Kingsman punches him in the back of the head slamming his face into the ground knocking him out and Kingsman says
“You know?” He rushes Itsuki and they clash fist but Kingsman *smiles* and says
“But there’s always someone with worse anger than me” Kaito appears behind Itsuki and punches him in the back pushing him forward and Kingsman punches him in the stomach and Kingsman grabs his face and Kaito grabs his chest and they both slam him into the ground knocking him out and as Kingsman and Kaito standing over Itsuki, Kingsman says
“But I’ve somewhat got it under control though” Akita is *shocked* and says
“Kingsman! Do you always have to be so rough with them!?” Kingsman says
“They aren’t children, Akita” Akita says
“Yes, they are Kingsman!” Kingsman says
“Ok they might be, but there boys. If nobody else is going to do it then I’ll have to make them men suited for this world” Akita says
“Why not make the world a safer place?” Kingsman says
“We've already had this conversation, but we are trying. And until then they need to be capable warriors” Kingsman picks up Itsuki by his hair and turns him around putting him in Akita's face and says
“Isn’t this the face of a very capable warrior?” Akita grabs Itsuki and Kingsman says
“He’s not a baby” Akita says
“There all my babies” Kingsman *chuckles* and says
“Can you carry all of your babies home?” Akita says
“Yes I can!” Akita props Itsuki up on her chest and she walks over to Dai and she slowly crouches down and she grabs his hand and she struggles to lift him but she's able to pull him up and lay him on her chest as she almost falls but she's able to maintain her balance and she slowly walks over towards Kenji and crouches down and grabs Kenji’s arm but she can’t lift him and Kingsman *sighs* and opens up a portal underneath Kenji dropping him on his bed and the portal closes and Kingsman walks up and picks up Akita and turns around as he says
“I have something to handle, you two stay safe” Kaito says
“Always brother” Kenzo says
“I have nothing to worry about'' Kingsman *chuckles* and falls backwards as he's about to hit the ground a portal on the ground opens and drops them into the kitchen and Kingsman sits Akita down and he grabs Itsuki and Dai out of her arms and separate portals open up on the ground and Kingsman drops them both through them dropping them into their beds, Kingsman says
“I’m going to bed” Kingsman tries to walk past Akita but she gets up and hugs him and he *sighs* and says
“I see I’ve been letting you do this too much, ma’am please let me go. I’m very uncomfortable, I don’t like this” Akita says
“I really love you!” Kingsman says
“I would too” Akita stomps his foot and he says
“OW! It was a joke, I love me too” Akita stomps his other foot and he says
“Ow! Fine, I love you too” But Akita still doesn’t let go of Kingsman and he *sighs* and says
“We doing this again?” She says
“Mhm” Kingsman says
“Well I’m going to sleep, do you want to make some food before we go?” Akita shakes her head no and Kingsman walks upstairs with Akita still holding onto him and he goes to their room.
The next morning Kingsman wakes up and Akita is still laying on his chest and he gently pushes her off of him and he stands up and walks to the door but as he grabs the door knob, Akita wakes up and *drowsily* says
“Kingsman...Where are you going?” Kingsman says
“Downstairs, I’m hungry” Akita *yawns* and says
“Can you make me some–” But she falls back to sleep and Kingsman *chuckles* and says
“Sure” Kingsman leaves the room but as he’s walking down the hallway, he notices Hana’s door is cracked and he walks in and sees Tadashi sleeping beside Hana’s bed and He *whistles* Tadashi stands up and sees Kingsman as he turns and walks downstairs and Tadashi follows Kingsman downstairs and Kingsman walks out the back door but Tadashi stops at the doorway and starts backing up in *fear* but Kingsman walks up to him and says
“I know it hurts every time, but I’ll try and make it quick this time. We need more information about them” They walk outside and Kingsman sits in the grass and closes his eyes as Tadashi lays on the grass right in front of Kingsman and Kingsman slows his breathing and the symbols all over Tadashi start to glow and Kingsman says
"Show me the two men that brought you here" Kingsman puts his hand on Tadashi’s head and everything around Kingsman goes completely silent and as he opens his eyes he’s inside a dark and mysterious room as he sees the two men in cloaks from before but this time they don’t have on their cloaks and Kingsman can see The Tall One has six universes in his chest and The Smaller One has seven universes in his chest and The Tall One says
“Haruto doesn’t know his place, he moves without speaking to Lord Jushiro as if he can do what he wants. Every time the bastard would sneak away he would blind Lord Jushiro’s eyes around the universe so he could be unseen” The Smaller One *chuckles* and says
“Makoto, do you really believe Haruto has the power necessary to blind all of the stars at once? Hell even if he could there’s no way he’s getting past Lord Jushiro, he’s far too smart to allow something like that. Besides Makoto we will deal with Haruto soon enough, but as it currently stands Lord Jushiro is allowing Haruto to continue the work he’s doing” Makoto says
“Jiro, Lord Jushiro should have killed him! If he doesn’t I’ll do it myself” Jiro says
“Would you really want to stop Lord Jushiro’s fun?” But Makoto says nothing and Jiro says
“I thought so, and beside Lord Jushiro says he wants to find and kill Kuragai or something like that I don’t know, but as he leads we follow. Do not over step” Makoto says
“But I feel like something is going on, Lord Jushiro will travel across the universes but when it comes to going to one planet he forbids everyone from returning to it. He was very strict about that and threatened anyone who would even mention it” Jiro says
“You know Lord Jushiro has never wanted to return to that planet after those two scarred him for some reason” Makoto says
“Then why not just destroy the entire planet and be done with it!” Jiro *chuckles* and says
“You truly don’t know a thing do you? Lord Jushiro is looking for Kuragai, but he doesn’t just want to instantly kill him. He needs answers and apparently he possesses a great power, and if I know Lord Jushiro he will want to take it as well” Makoto opens his mouth but they both turn their heads and look at Kingsman and the symbols all over Tadashi start burning extremely bright and Kingsman falls back clutching his head and he *screams in pain* as he closes his eyes and Tadashi rolls around in *extreme pain* and Kingsman struggles to slowly get to his feet and he opens his eyes and sees Tadashi rolling around and he walks up and grabs his head and as he does all the symbols on Tadashi slowly dim and Kingsman falls to the ground still *holding his head in pain* and thinks
“I knew it, Haruto isn’t the only one of them. So that means I fought both of them already, but I was just barely able to keep up with one of them and if he was that strong I could only Imagine how strong this “Lord Jushiro” is. Hopefully we did enough to give us more time to train…I need to get a lot stronger but…Who is this Kuragai?” Kingsman stands up and sees Tadashi is passed out and Kingsman picks him up and says
“I know it hurts a little worse every time, but thank you for helping me gain more and more knowledge on them” Kingsman carries him in the house and sits him on the floor as he pulls some meat out of the fridge and he cooks it on the stove and he puts it next to Tadashi head and says
“Sorry, but my body can’t handle anymore excursion today. I know you like it when I cook it with my flames, but I can’t” Tadashi slowly opens his eyes and slowly puts head up and bites the meat pulling it out of Kingsman’s hand but he just lays it on the floor next to him, Kingsman says
“Either you eat it as it is or I’ll chew it for you” Tadashi leans forward and eats the meat and he lays his head back on the floor and Kingsman *laughs* and says
“I thought so” Kingsman picks him up and takes him back to Hana’s room and puts him back on the floor and Kingsman goes back downstairs and cooks some Chicken Yaki Udon and he walks back upstairs and into his room and he says
“Kit wake up” But Akita is still sound asleep and he says
“Kit wake up!” But she still doesn't wake up and he screams
“AKITA GET UP!” Akita sits up *shocked* and *scared* and Kingsman walks up and sits the food on her lap and says
“I made you food” He kiss her on the check and leaves but she’s still in *shock* and doesn’t move and Kingsman goes downstairs and he grabs some sake out of the fridge and he sits at the table but as he’s drinking his sake, Dai walks downstairs and sees Kingsman sitting at the table drinking and Dai thinks
"Let's have a little fun" Dai rushes up to Kingsman and throws a punch towards Kingsman's face but a portal opens up in front of Dai's fist making Dai punch himself in the face knocking him down and Kingsman *burps* and says
“Your a bit to slow” Kingsman gets up and walks out of the backdoor and starts drinking while he's walking and Dai rushes him and throws another punch, but Dai's arm disappears as he suddenly punches himself in the stomach and Dai drops to the ground and is *shocked* and says
“How the hell can you make a portal I can’t see!?” Kingsman *burps* and *laughs* as he says
“Just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist” Kingsman walks into the forest and Dai follows behind him but Dai starts breaking branches off of the trees and starts throwing them at Kingsman but portals keep opening up around Kingsman launching them back at Dai until Kingsman gets to a giant opening field of flowers and Dai stops before he comes out of the tree line and Dai thinks
“What are you plotting?” As Kingsman makes it to the middle of the field, he finishes the sake and throws the bottle in the air and he throws a kunai into the air destroying it and he catches the kunai and his hand covers in darkness duplicating three more kunai's and throws all four of them in different directions but they all stop mid air and darkness bleeds from them making a puddle and then one Kingsman comes out of each puddle and as they all stand up they grab the kunai out of the air as Kingsman is just drunkenly dancing in the middle of the field and all of the Kingsman’s duplicate hundreds of kunai's and they start throwing them all at Kingsman but he dodges all of the kunai's with his drunken dancing and Dai is *shocked* as Kingsman grabs multiple of the flying kunai's with one hand while he’s still dancing and morphs them into a sword and he starts deflecting all the kunai's and he runs up to one of his clones and cuts it’s head off and he rushes another one still deflecting all of the kunai's and he slashes the clone across the chest destroying it and Kingsman walks back to the middle and Kingsman drops his sword as he gets hit by multiple kunai's in the chest and he falls to the ground and Dai is *shocked* and says
“Sensei!” Dai punches two of the trees and throws them towards Kingsman but the clones of Kingsman start throwing there kunai's at the trees destroying them before the trees could get close to Kingsman and Dai runs towards Kingsman and the clones of Kingsman start throwing there kunai's towards Dai and he's able to dodge all of them until one of them stabs him in the side of the leg and he falls to one knee and as he does he's slashed all over his body by hundreds of kunai's and Dai punches the ground causing two firewalls to shoot out of the ground on both sides of him and Dai pulls the kunai's out of the side of his leg and throws it away and he thinks
“Damn it Sensei, why am I always the one who has to save you!” Dai stands back up and he *breathes slowly* and his flaming wings reappear on his back and he moves with so much speed he destroys the ground and he’s so fast none of the kunai’s can keep up with him and as he gets up to Kingsman his wings grow and wrap around him and Kingsman causing all of the kunai's to bounce off of his wings and Dai says
“All right Sensei let’s go! I know it hurts, but you–” Kingsman is just *laughing* and Dai is *confused* and says
“Why the hell are you laughing!? Aren’t you hurt?” Kingsman says
“Nope, not in the slightest. But you were watching me and I wanted to give you something to do” Dai gets *angry* and says
“What the hell is wrong with you!?” Kingsman says
“Focus Dai, keep your wings strong. It's dangerous to lose focus even in the most tense situations” Dai says
“I am–” A kunai pierces Dai’s wing but Kingsman catches the kunai before it hits Dai in his eye and Kingsman *laughs* and says
“Just focus and relax, sit down Dai” Dai sits down next to Kingsman as Kingsman says
“You know we’ll always be family, right?” Dai says
“What do you mean Sensei?” Kingsman *chuckles* and says
“I know the real reason you always step in front of danger and volunteer to go on every slightly dangerous excursion” Dai is *shocked* and says
“I-I don’t know what you mean Sensei, I’m a warrior and the strong must always protect the weak” Kingsman says
“I know you're afraid to lose the people you care about again. Sadly our pain is similar, two warriors who lost the most important people in there lives and are still clinging on to what little they have left to keep them whole” Dai sheds a tear and Kingsman grabs his head and says
“We’ve truly been through to much, but the strongest warriors must make sacrifices to protect the ones they love” Dai says
“S-Sensei…I’m scared, after Riku died I’ve been so scared about losing anyone else. Especially… Especially you Sensei, I started to see you as my Father and I don’t think I can handle the pain of losing my Father again” Kingsman *smiles* and says
“I’m honored that you would think so highly of me to give me that honor, but do you think I have what it takes to watch a son of mine die again? If it came down to us Dai, you would be far better without me than me without you. I am a man that has been mentally destroyed by time, I promise I won’t handle it well” Dai says
“Sensei, can you make me a promise?” Kingsman says
“Which is?” Dai says
“If something is to happen to me I want you to be strong and keep fighting no matter what happens” Kingsman *chuckles* and says
“That’s what I’m supposed to make you promise me, I’m the old man here. You have a lot more time left than me, but the only way I’ll keep that promise is if you keep one for me” Dai says
“What is it?” Kingsman says
“You’ll learn to control your anger and only use it to your advantage and not be consumed by it, no matter what happens” Dai says
“But that’s how I make my fire stronger” Kingsman says
“No your spirit makes it stronger, your anger makes it unstable. That’s why every time you get too angry your fire explodes off of you, I also noticed that the explosion also hurts you. You might not want to show it, but I noticed it and it makes you too predictable. You're too strong of a warrior to be that predictable, so do we have a deal?” Dai says
“Fine, if it means that you’ll live on. I can learn to control my anger” Kingsman *laughs* and says
“Look at that, now we’re going to be better for each other like father and son should be” Dai stands up and punches Kingsman in the stomach and says
“You always have to ruin something” Kingsman *laughs* and stands up as he hits Dai on top of his head and says
“Dai, I truly want you to know I am proud of the man you're becoming” Dai says
“I’m just becoming the man you’ve made me to be” Kingsman says
“Don’t be the man I want you to be, be the man you truly want to be” Dai says
“But I want to become a man just like you” Kingsman says
“No, what you want to be is a man you think I’ll approve of. But I am not the man you want to become like, it’s ok to take some of my teachings, hell even some of my ideals. But never take my mind set! That is something you create for yourself, you trying to imitate mine will destroy anything you build because you’ll want to think about if I would do it or not. But your life isn’t about me, it’s about you. Do you understand?” Dai says
“Yes sir” Kingsman says
“Good, now let’s get out of here before they kill us. Let go Dai, realize your wings” Dai slows his breathing and Dai’s wings start to fade and Kingsman grabs Dai and pulls him close as he jumps into the air shattering Dai’s wings and Kingsman says
“Do it!” Then lightning arrows impales one of the clones all over its body and the other one is frozen solid and they both surge with lightning causing a giant explosion of ice and lightning all across the field and Kingsman lands on the ground and says
“Both of you come here” Dai takes a step back from Kingsman and Itsuki and Kenji walk out of the tree line and over to Kingsman and Kingsman says
“I want all of you to know that I am very proud of all of you, and when you two get back I want you to find me, understood?” Dai says
“Yes” Itsuki says
“I was going to do that anyways” Kingsman says
“I’ve decided today is the day both of you leave” Kenji is *shocked* and says
“What!? Why?” Kingsman says
“This is the perfect time, no one is making any moves against us. So that is why I want you both to go now” Itsuki says
“...Yes Sensei” Kingsman says
“Itsuki, speak your mind” Itsuki says
“ I-I…Don’t want to go because I’m going to miss you Sensei, but I also want to make you proud and defeat Oda” Kingsman says
“Please understand I’m doing this for the safety of you two, hell if I could send the boy away I would. I want all of you to understand there’s something more to this world than fighting and dying. There’s so much more I want all of you to see” Itsuki sheds a tear and he hugs Kingsman as he says
“I know, and thank you for that Sensei but…I’m scared Sensei, what if when we leave you die?” Kingsman says
“Listen we all die one day, the goal isn’t to live forever. But to make something that will, I know all of you will take my teachings and help others learn them. So no matter if I die my style lives on regardless” Itsuki steps back with *tears in his eyes* and punches Kingsman in the stomach and says
“If you die while I’m gone, I’m going to come back and kill you” Kingsman *laughs* and says
“You truly believe there’s someone alive that can beat me, even more than that you think there’s someone that can kill me! If I ever die it’ll be to myself” Kingsman punches Itsuki in his stomach and says
“But don’t you dare go out there and die on me” Itsuki *smiles* and says
“Never, I was trained by the best” Kingsman says
“Alright, let’s get the hard part out of the way and go tell your mother that all of you are leaving” Kenji *laughs* and says
“I’d be surprised if you could keep mom off of them” Kingsman says
“This is definitely going to be a struggle, but I have a plan”
At the same time Kei is sitting at his desk with his head down thinking
“I’m doing all of this to honor my family, my father…But at what cost? I have to break my brother and destroy everything he loves for what! Fear, Land, Respect…I can not do this. Not to my brother” But then the golden dragon reappears on his neck and the symbols across the room reappear and Haruto says
“It is time Kei” Kei says
“I-I can’t” Haruto says
“After everything we’ve done for victory, for glory you would quit so close to the end” Kei stands up in *frustration* and screams
“I DIDN’T DO THIS FOR SOME FALSE GLORY!” Haruto says
“Then what did you do this for?” Kei says
“I did this for my Father, for his legacy…For my family, for their honor. I just wanted us back to what we use to be, I just want my brother back” Haruto says
“You really want to stop here? Stopping now won’t make your brother accept you back, but if you continue it will make your father proud, your family proud. You must understand to build an empire it requires a sacrifice of blood and sometimes you have to spill the blood of loved ones to get what you want” Kei says
“Don’t you dare speak about what would make my Father proud! I’m done with this, I won’t travel down this road any longer. I know stopping won’t make my brother accept me, but it will somewhat make my brother realize how much I’ve changed!” Kei walks to the door but as he grabs the door handle he *screams in pain* and falls to the floor as the golden dragon burns brighter and Haruto says
“I spent years preparing to claim this world, and you think I’m about to let you squander this opportunity! I may not have found Kuragai, but I will not show up to Lord Jushiro empty handed. You don't know everything I've sacrificed just to be here!” Haruto puts his hand up and the dragon extends and wraps around the rest of Kei’s neck choking him and Haruto says
“You will go and kill Kaito’s wife and child and as he’s grieving you will put this on his neck and I will handle the rest. Am I understood!” Kei while being choked says
“Y-Yes...My lord” The golden dragon disappears from around his neck and Haruto says
“Now go!” Kei slowly gets to his feet and stumbles out of the door
