Marcus
A week ago, I volunteered to go to the Badlands a uncharted Area. There was a Magical Disturbance. It is so boring around here and I might as well go. The people who went with me were Julius a court Magician, David a knight, George the archer, and Lisana and elf and healer. It takes a week to get there. We were making progress when we were ambush buy two Oni. Lisana was hurt in the sneak attack. I challenged them to a fight. I made the others run with Lisana so that they could get away. One of them got pass me when I was careless. Now that I was on a time limit I immediately defeated the Oni with a slash of my sword, and went to chase the others.
When I got there, I saw a beautiful girl kicking the Oni into the air. Then she wrapped something around him. She spun in the air and crushed the Oni into the gound. Not only did she defeat him effortlessly, there is not a single drop of Mana or Aura in her body, but I felt something entirely different. I go up to her she seems to be on her guard. She wanted us to leave. Julius tried to convince her, saying we have to wait because of Lisana. She looked annoyed. She asked a child from their group about something. The little girl nods her head and they begin treating Lisana with a weird technique. David is inferring the same thing I am. This girl and these kids are probably the magical disturbance. She looks too young to be a mother of such old children so they are not hers. Which mean they belong to someone else. That mean there are more people here. A civilization in the badlands. I must find out more, not because of the king, but I want to know how people are surviving such a harsh environment.
When I question her, and said there might be people here her eyes turned cold. Then I notice several energies like the girl in the trees. She threatened to kill me. My companions draw their weapons. I am the only one who notice those three kids have already got a weird knife at their throats. Their speed was incredible. They far out past an assassin. I tell my men to stand down and asked the leader to come out. I was surprise the leader is same age as the girl around 17. He is wearing a similar style of clothes. I look at his eyes I never seen them that color before. I finally here the name of the girl Shirgure. I will remember it. She is not like any other girl I have met. One of the subordinates of the man named Hongo takes the children home. He also tells his subordinate to inform someone called a Hokage. What is a Hokage? Probably a leader or king. Shirgure is looking up into the stars. I don't know why but I can' t take my eyes off her. Her senses are sharp she turns her head but I play dumb. Than a bird comes and some sort of message drops down. She reads it and says we are allowed to enter, but she threatens to kill me if we do anything. She may be threating me, but I don't know why. but I have to urge to smile. Maybe it is because boot lickers and schemers surround me every day. This person does not like me and she says it right to may face. So straight forward no deceit at all. I can't help but smile.
We leave with them and I realize these people are fast. I can keep up with them, but the others are having a hard time. Shirgure notices. She looks annoyed
Shirgure: Hongo they can't keep up what do you want to do.
Hongo: 5 minutes for break
We all stop and the others finally catch up. They are out of breath. Shirgure, Hongo and the others are fine. They don't even look tired.
Shirgure: Going on like this we have to take several breaks before we get there.
Hongo: It fine I got and idea NINJA ART SUMMONING JUTSU!
He moves his hand at extremely fast speed than he bites his thumb and places his hand on the ground. A horse appears out of the smoke. What Magic is this. It a huge brown horse with black mane. Is that thing smoking a pipe? What is with the clothes?
Hongo: Yo Yukimura
Yukimura: Brat why have you summoned me?
Hongo: You think give those people a lift
Yukimura: You summoned me for such a useless reason.
Hongo: I get you that high quality hay you like so much
Yukimura: you think you can bribe me.
Makuro: Just do it you stupid horse. Or is that you are two weak too carry 4 people.
Yukimura: What did you just say?
Shirgure: Was it really wise to bring Yukimura out when Makuro is around. You know they fight like cats and dogs.
After the taunting buy the owl the horse got piss off and showed it fighting spirit and threw all of them on its back and charged ahead.
Yukimura: AHHHHHHHHHHH!
Makuro: Like I said stupid horse he is to easy.
Wow that owl is smart he manipulated that horse into doing something it did want to do. Now he is doing it will all his might. We make it to the village and I am shocked. It is as big as a city. There is a wall surrounding It. I see the others Julius look like he is about to puke.
Yukimura: See you dumb bird I am super strong.
Makuro: Yes Yes your strong.
Yukimura: Those four people could not hinder my speed I got here first......... Hey wait a minute YOU EVIL BIRD YOU TRICKED ME!
Makuro: Was not that hard.
Stolen content warning: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.
Yukimura: I WILL KILL YOU!
Hongo: That enough time for you to return
Shirgure: You too Makuro
Hongo and Shirgure: RELEASE!
The owl and the horse both vanish in puff of smoke. Than The guard let us in. They seem to pay great respect to Hongo and Shirgure. They both must be important. I girl with green hair comes to get us.
Shirgure: Chiaki
Chiaki: Saito wants all the captain and the outsiders in the meeting room. There is much to discuss.
Shirgure nods her head. We follow the woman named Chiaki. I notice all of them have a headband with a mark of a tree on it. We walk through the village and we see people staring at us. But then they stop and go on about their business. Than we go to a large meeting room. Shirgure, Hongo and Chiaki take a Seat. I saw Shirgure strength and Hongo leads a unit. But I did not expect Chiaki would be a captain as well. Next another girl come in with short blue hair and pink eyes.
Aoi: These the out siders
Chiaki: Yeah
Aoi: The guy with the black armor kind of cute.
Chiaki: Aoi don't be rude to our guess.
Aoi: Yeah yeah.
Next comes in another person with green Hair.
Honzo: Yo sis
Chiaki: Hey
Shirgure: Honzo is Yamamoto coming yet where is he.
The guy named Honzo sighs
Honzo: Peeping on the girls in the Hot spring
Shirgure: Aoi
Aoi: Already on standby.
A guy with red hair comes in after 15 minutes. He looks extremely happy, but his face looks swollen. and following him is a giant dog.
Yamamoto: Totally worth it.
Shirgure goes over grabs Yamaimo and slams him into the wall. Aoi goes over and heals him.
Aoi: Wow four broken ribs this time you held back.
Shirgure: We have a meeting soon.
Marcus: Does this happen often
Everyone: Yes.
George: Can that dog talk as well.
They all look at him like he is crazy.
Yamamoto: Why would Chiba be able to talk he is a dog.
A vain in Georges head started to bulge. So an owl and a horse can talk but a dog can't? Seeing my confused look.
Shirgure: Makuro and Yukimura are different than Chiba
Marcus: Oh
I still don’t get it. Finally, and man comes in he has long black hair that he put into a braid. He has snow white skin and dark eyes. He is wearing a black robe with red clouds on it and has a sword on his side that I have never seen before. He only looks less than 26.
Marcus: Are You the Hokage
Saito: I am Saito Uchiha the 2nd Hokage of the Village Hidden in the Forest
Marcus: I am The Fourth Prince Marcus Vestal of the Esreld Kingdom.
Saito: May I ask why you have come here.
Marcus: We came here to find out about a magical disruption.
Saito: Did this disruption happen a week ago.
They all started looking at each other I was right it has to do with this place. There is no way a place like this would not have been discovered.
Saito: Yes, the disruption was cause buy us unintendedly
Marcus: What do you mean.
Saito: Do you know someone named Braga
Marcus: God of Mischief I have heard of him.
Saito: We are not from here. The one you know as Braga sent us here for his own a amusement. We don't know how to return so we decided to make the best of the situation and live here for now.
Julius: What was that strange magic you were using. It did not use any mana
Saito: That is because it is not magic it is Ninjutsu. We don't use mana we use chakra.
Marcus: Chakra what is that.
Saito: I won’t tell you. I don’t trust you enough to know our secrets
Marcus: That is fair. What are your intentions.
Saito: Survival. We just want to live our lives. For now, we don't plan on doing anything. If you leave us alone we will leave you alone, but if you mess with us,,,,,,,,
He eyes turn a deep blood red
Saito: Be prepared to die.
As soon as I looked into his eyes I felt fear. I have not felt l fear in a long time. Shirgure said you earn being Hokage. I can see why. That man is a monster. Suddenly a man comes rushing in.
Ozai: Second urgent news
Saito: What wrong Ozai
Ozai hand him an eye demon. They are eyeballs with wings use for surveillance.
Saito: Looks like Esreld was not the only one to notice us.
Shirgure: Before I came here I defeated an Oni.
Saito: They are lower class. They are always subordinates it looks like their boss is coming.
Marcus: I can call the kingdom for support
Saito: No need
Marcus: But a Boss demon is coming he sure have a small army.
Saito: They just want to know about us. We are just going educate them.
Then his eyes change and he gives off a smile. I have feeling the demons just made a huge mistake
