The man stood still as a stone as he held his bloodied sword in his hands the body of a women was at his feet blood pooling out from under her the man had a horrified look on his face "What have I done?" he asked himself as he repeatedly look from his sword to the woman's body. He bit his lip "How could this have happened?" he wondered how could he have just killed the princess of his kingdom the one he was sworn to protect soon after hearing the scream several guards came rushing over to his home when they saw the sight before their eyes they took no time in subduing the man and dragging him out of his home another guard took his bloody sword from him while another three walked him off in chains he glanced back at the lifeless body of the princess as it was covered by a white sheet.
It didn't take long for a court date to be appointed the man had only been sitting in his dungeon cell for only three days after the incident when he was called as he was walked to the court the townspeople booed at him and the yelled and threw things at him some shouted his new title 'Princess Killer' hearing that his emotions seemed to be cut off as the full brunt of what happened sunk in he had killed the princess but how did that awful thing occur how come the princess had to come during the night heavily cloaked without so much as a prior notice it was then as the man looked at the faces of the other royal guards did he know why it happened some had big smirks across their faces as he was marched down the stone street.
The man eyed those several men as he walked passed them as he stared at them something clicked n his head "Those bastards did this, it's their fault" the man said under his breath in spite "They did this to me" he said with a growl and he fixated his eyes on each of their faces so he wouldn't forget them "I'll get them, I get them all" the man said as the court came into view. The man was now standing in the center of the courtroom he was handcuffed around his wrists and his ankles their were murmurs from the people watching as well as the jury "Can't we get this over with he obviously guilty" said a jury men in a whisper to another "I know right, they caught him red handed" the other said back the man paid no heed to whispers of the jurors.
Suddenly all the people sitting behind the accused man rose as the king himself entered the "Court is now in session the king Qui Leon presiding" the bailiff said as the king passed him by the king looked over at the man accused of killing his daughter before he walked to the judges chair "You I can't believe it's you" Qui Leon said as he shook his head "Do you have anything to say for yourself?" Qui Leon asked the man didn't answer Qui Leon sighed "So be it" he said and made his way to the judges chair and sat down.
The people sat down and the murmurs and whispers began again yet the man didn't pay no mind he just looked forward with a cold look on his face and in his eyes Qui Leon cleared his throat "Shayung Lei-won" Qui Leon said the man didn't even respond to his own name Qui Leon sighed "Shayung, you are charged with killing the princess of our kingdom, my daughter" Qui Leon said Shayung said nothing still "How do you plead Shayung?" Qui Leon asked.
Shayung stayed silent "Shayung answer the question" Qui Leon said a bit of anger in his voice Shayung didn't utter a word "Speak you piece of trash!" Qui Leon shouted Shayung didn't falter his mouth stayed closed his eyes were colorless and cold looking and was paired with an emotionless face the king was fed up with being nice a civil "You bastard you killed my only daughter and yet you say nothing!" Qui Leon shouted "Beg! Plead! Do something that will make me feel satisfied!" Qui Leon shouted Shayung scoffed he finally opened his mouth "I will come for those who wronged me" Shayung said with a gruff tone the king clicked his tounge "Is that a threat Shayung?!" Qui Leon shouted . Shayung smirked "Think of it what you will" he said Qui Leon growled "Guilty" Qui Leon said without hesitation "I find you guilty" Qui Leon said "You are guilty of killing Princess Leona" Qui Leon said "And you are sentenced to execution" Qui Leon said "A date will be set for you death" he added "An for what you've take from me I hope you suffer" Qui Leon said "Court adjourned" he said and walked off a loud uproar came from in back of Shayung.
Shayung droned the shouts and curses thrown at him as he had other things occupying his mind "I'll show them, I'll show them all" he said to himself after the court session he was dragged to a new cell where he would wait until his execution date it was then months had passed his hair had grown long and unkempt his face was full of facial hair his face was covered in smudges of dirt his clothes were torn and ripped his skin was showing through some of the tears and bruises could be seen from where some of the royal guards beat him in secret he took all of their punishment and it became fuel for him which he held onto until the time came when his execution day came two heavily armored guards came to get him they opened his cell and walked in not knowing he had gotten the chains around his hands and ankles free when they came close enough to where they could grab him he sprung up he took hold of one of the guards swords and he quickly killed them both with a slash to the neck and a lopped off head.

Shayung ran out the cell passed the other guards that was waiting when they saw him run by his newly acquired bloody sword they began chase shouting at him but Shayung wasn't going to stop he had one thing on his mind revenge with that in his mind he rushed forth anything or anyone that got in his way was cut down as he made his way out the royal city he had made a path of blood and bodies as he made his way to the exit most of the bodies he cut down were foolish townsmen that tried to stop him if he were still the man he was before Shayung would be feeling bad for cutting down the people he once protected but now he didn't care whatsoever "I'll kill them all" he said as he ran "I'll kill them all!" Shayung shouted as he passed the exit and rushed into the forest.
It was a few hours later in the day that Shayung decided it was time to move as the number of guards looking for him diminished he came out from his hiding spot and made sure no one was around he then ran through the forest the faces of the ones that betrayed him fresh in his mind "They will pay" Shayung said. Several months later word had gotten out that certain members of the Royal Guard had been killed in their homes along with their families everybody knew deep down even if no one was saying who the culprit was Shayung Lei-won but no one could catch him and the king was worried remembering the words Shayung had said in the courtroom worried and scared that he would for him next the strain on his mind was much more then he could handle and he took his own life and so the Royal City was left without a king and the kingdom was in disarray.
Shayung had been wandering the land staying away from the city as to not be risky and get caught before he killed everyone that betrayed him he had in that time acquired new clothes gotten clean shaven and cut his hair but he kept it long as to disguise himself he even took a new name he started calling himself Yun-Shao and claimed he was a wanderer it was difficult for him to get into the Royal City to deal with his revenge with the whole Royal Guard looking for him he then decided to travel farther away to give some time for his name and face to be forgotten.
It was years later that Yun-Shao made his way back to the Royal City his face had not changed since then his eyes were cold and almost lifeless the only thing on his mind was killing those that were left on his death list as he made his way down the road he heard a rustling coming from the bushes on the side of the road in the dense line of trees he stopped thinking he was about to be attacked by a bandit but he was surprised to see a young girl with jet black hair that was tied into to pigtails on the sides of her head she had two curved knives in her hands and she had a scared look on her face before Yun-Shao could brace himself the girl plowed into him and knocked him down to the ground "Sorry!" the girl apologized Yun-Shao looked up at the girl and his eyes widened in surprise "Princess?" he said dazed the girl sitting on top of him looked very much like Princess Leona but Yun-Shao knew that she was dead but the uncanny resemblance still got to him.
"She went that way!" came male shout the girl looked over to where the shout came from with a scared look she looked down at Yun-Shao "Can you please help me!?" the girl asked Yun-Shao looked at the girl who was waiting for an answer.
