Welcome to Gaia! ::

One commander messengers rushes up out of breath "Sir Sir Sir!!" he screams as he stops in front of him "What is it, calm down boy." matachi says putting a hand on his shoulder "Bandits at the docks." He spurts out in a shaky, this instantly grabs matachi "You five come with me." Matachi says pointing out to a few young soldiers walking by. Matachi leaves the man followed by the soldiers.

As the horses rush though the forest path about to hit the beginning of the docks a thin piece of iron wire is risen from the path way just before the horses it. Matachi is the first one to be hurled from his horse, he slams into the ground sliding a few feet, the horse dies on impact from a shattered next. Matachi achingly turns his head to see the other soldiers to be thrown from their horses as well. One of the youngest a eighteen year old dies on impact from the horse tumbling over him his body lays limp on the path, two others shatter one of their legs and scream out as they lay on the ground reaching for their swords that lay near them. The last two get up and start glancing around.

"You go." Matachi says smirking at the soldier "When I take off wait till they go after me." He says "Then you need to run as hard as you can back to the castle and tell them to send forest soldiers through here." He says, the soldier tries to protest but as he begins to speak matachi stands up dashing down the path towards docks "GO!" He shouts. The soldier runs as fast as he can back up the path, he is soon out of their site.

Matachi dashes down one of the the docks, smoke billows from their target ship suddenly as something explodes along front of it. Seems to be a trade ship that looks of high importance. Matachi finally stops near the end of the dock, being a good distance away from the first point of where this kicked off. Enough space for the two wounded to hide in the trees. The bandits poor onto the start of the dock some stopping to fire arrows which skim past matachi.

Unsheathing sky tear and the llyr blade matachi dashes forward towards them, he does not used the sidiion for some reason. He pummels straight into the group stabbing the first two straight into the chest, blood flows from them as he rips the swords back out, they scream as they fall to the ground. Matachi turns bringing around sky tear into one of the archers who easily takes a slice a diagonally up his chest sending the man back off the dock and into the water. This is when the first arrow hits its mark. Puncturing its way right through his thin forest clothing of his back as he was finishing the rotation, the arrow punches its way through his rib cage and into his left lung. He freezes almost instantly as the pain travels up and down his body.

Matachi coughs slightly smirking as he turns to face the rest of the group of bandits who seem to slowly back up. "What scared already?" He says as he walks forward, another bandit archer takes his chance releasing an arrow from its bow. Matachi does not avoid it, instead he dashes towards them. Being caught by a small pocket of dead air the arrow goes down ripping its way through his right thigh. He doesn't stop even though it feels as though someone just stopped all his muscles in his right leg. Bringing the blades forward he cuts through two of three men who dash forward, they collapse with slices to their legs sending them sliding across the deck. Swinging his arm around matachi head locks the last of the three. Jerking with a twist of his hand he snaps the mans neck.

He stops again, to look get a good solid breath. He could feel the blood rushing to the lung filling it making him feel a though someone was pouring a liquid into trying to drown him. This throws his strength off. A screaming bandit dashes up holding two small daggers. He blocks the first slightly weak swing of the sky tear, this opens my side. The man swings around the dagger in the left hand, this enters his side straight into his kidneys. Matachi gets a slightly heavy breath from this pain giving him the strength to bring the llyr blade into the mans gut and out his back. Matachi presses the blade upward twice for sure the killed him. Not worried about getting the blade he dashes at the rest of the group who start to run back from the dock.
