It has been two years since Kazuki had been to the Temple of the Rising Suns. As the teleportation ended and the white light vanished all that was to their eyes was a destroyed Temple and the body of monks covered in blood. Kazuki took off running for the temple, which had caught a blaze near the top. Kazuki’s long brown hair flew behind him moving left and right while he ran. His right hand on the sheath of his sword, he was moving his left arm towards his head and down to his hip while he was running for the main part of the Temple where Monk Zaku normally stated with the elders. Kai, Akura and Raziel then nodded at each other after watching Kazuki Sprint off and they ran after him, but then three demons came from the ground and then two where in the trees. Most of the demons looked the same with their green bodies and their inhuman like face but one stood out, a man with a all white face and purple lipstick, also he had purple eyeliner and long pointed ears. His clothes where also different he wore a black chest plate and white samurai pants with a long katana on his hip. This demon also had short black hair.

Raziel: ((Raziel grabbed his bow and his arrow bag and put it over his back. He then grabbed two arrows and place the end of the arrows on the thread connecting the two ends of the bow. He then pulled back on the ends of the arrows with the thread and took aim.)) “Ok, you have two choice you can let us pass or you can die”

Kai: “Who is your leader and why have you come to this holy place.”((He said drawing his broad sword”))

Akura: “If they wont say anything then lets go because I am tired of looking at their ugly faces” (( She yelled drawing her Katanas and dashing forward. She spun her body around in a circle and then slice a demon across the chest and used her second sword to stab a demon behind her by spinning the sword in her right hand and then grabbing the hilt while the blade was turned into the demon’s heart.))

The strange demon vanished and then the others started to attack at once. Raziel released his hand from the thread and the end of both arrows as the two arrows his a demon in the head that was coming up behind Akura. Akura quickly pulled her swords out of the demons bodies and jumped into the air and spun around and struck at another demon but it pulled up its own sword and blocked the strike, as their blades clashed Kai saw no point in using a weapon on a low class of demons he ran through his enemies one punch in the gut of a demon the second demon a punch in the heart, the third demon a round house kick to the neck send it spinning. Raziel was surrounded as two demons attack on form the back and on from the front, Raziel tossed his bow in the air and held two fingers on his right hand, he spun around to make the demons bump heads then he stuck down twice in the first demons shoulder and then in its back on the second demon his held his hand like a bow and then pulled back his left hand like the thread a blue light that looked like a bow appeared and then a arrow showed up as he release the energy like shooting a bow the other demon exploded, and so did the second one with the contact of the magic arrow.

Raziel: “Is that all, I was just getting started.” ((He said as he caught his bow of Light from the sky and held it down at the ready.))

Akura: “Lets go Kazuki could be walking into a trap.” ((She said as she slashed her sword at the ground swiping the blood from her Katanas and then ran for the tower her swords in both hands her grip was tight as she ran with both blades out to the side.

Kai: “Right, lets move Raziel!” ((Kai called as he grabbed his broad sword and then held it like a knight would at his center and started to run to catch up with Akura))

Raziel: “Right.” ((He said following Kai, Raziel grabbed two arrows from his pack that was on his back.)) “Kai, heads up” ((He called out to Kai as Raziel jumped on to Kai’s back and jumped into the air and put the arrows on the thread and pulled back he the shot the bow at two stragglers who where at the top getting ready to shoot them with arrows.)) “Shining Arrow” ((He yelled as the arrows where covered in a bright light and shot through the bodies of the demons with a clear shot. Raziel then flipped forwards twice as he landed in front of Akura and continued to run with them.

Akura: “Nice shot.”

Kai: “Yes, I did not even notice them until you called out to me.”

Raziel: “No problem, but look up a head that door I wonder how we get through it”

Akura: “My turn.” ((She said as she gained speed moving pass Raziel and then her blades glowed purple and then black, her eyes where also glowing the blue and green for a second two large white wings could be seen, but it was on a quick blink as she jumped into the air and then slashed down at the door cutting it open.)) “Just like butter” ((She said running again, her blood red hair was moving all over the place.

Kai: “Up head look at those” ((He said as he pointed at two spinning blades the where engulfed in flames. Kai turned his broad to the left and ran a head of everyone and then jumped in front of the blade and sliced upwards as his blade gained a flame and then cut the other blade in two and shot them into the air stabbing them into the ceiling. ))

As they where making their way behind Kazuki at a fast pace Kazuki was still running his left hand on his hilt as he drew his katana and seven demons surrounded the door. Kazuki kept running not slowing down he slashed through four of them cutting the middle of demon having it separate from its waist the blood splashed on Kazuki’s face and clothes, after that with his blade on his left side he came to the next demon and sliced upward spreading him in two Kazuki ran through the open area. He then came to the next demon in the way and slashed downward to his right cutting it arms off. More blood splashed on to Kazuki and his katana, his hair now soaked in black blood from the demons you could barely make out the brown of his hair. Kazuki then let out a loud battle cry and his eyes were like daggers as he looked at his demon opponent and cut them down one by one.

Kazuki: “Get out of my way or die!!” ((He yelled as he dashed forward pushing open a door with his shoulder and then slashed a demon that was waiting, down the middle. Kazuki took a leap over most of the demons heads as he felt a strong aura, it felt familiar to him but he did not care, who ever it was, is the one who has destroyed his home and he was not going to let them escape or leave this area alive.))

Akura: “Kazuki wait up!” ((She called out as she came into view with Kai and Raziel from behind attack the enemies that where following them.

Raziel: “Wow, that mana level; where is it coming from?” ((He said turning around and charging his mana into a arrow and released it creating a large white arrow. He then kept running.))

Kai: “Not sure” ((Kai said as he block a sword from cutting his head off, he then moved pushed the enemy back and held his right arm up as his caught a blaze of a red orange fire mixed with a blue fire)) “Chinese Fire Ball Strike!” ((He called out as a large fire ball was released from his hand and shot towards all the enemies following them and disintegrated their bodies; as the ash fell down Kai began to run and catch up with Raziel and Akura.))

Akura: ((As Akura came up to the rear of Kazuki she saw he came to a complete stop at the final door heading into the main chamber she the stopped sliding on the carped)) “Hey, where a team Kazuki so we are right here behind you.” ((She said as she walked behind him and smiled, at that moment Kai and Raziel walked up next to Akura))

Kai: “Yeah, we are and we know that the Elemental Demons are behind this and some one extremely strong is behind that door.” ((He said as he flipped his head up to move his hair from his face and out of his eyes.))

Raziel: “What they said, but lets get going and stop standing around” ((He said as he put his arm on Kazuki’s head and leaned on top of it.))

Kazuki: ((Kazuki lowered his head so his hair covered his eyes, Kazuki then lifted his head up and turned to his friends, Raziel moved off of Kazuki and grabbed his bow.)) “Thank you, as soon as this is over I will find out what makes us connected”

Kai: “Forget about it, lets just go and kick this guys but”

Kazuki: “Right” ((He took another look at his friends and then turned to the door, as he placed his hand on it everyone else took a part of the door and began to push it open with Kazuki.))

As the large door open, the room was mostly covered in darkness and only a small portion of it was lit by light, Kazuki and Kai stepped in first to check out the area, their swords drawn and ready next Raziel and Akura who check the other part of the room. They tried to stay in the lit area, soon they heard a faint sound the sound of blades clashing it was coming from above. Kazuki looked up but it was no go, it was way to dark to see, Kai looked up and then pointed up at a location as he saw a small spark from whoever’s blades where clashing against each other. Kazuki griped his Katana his right palm was facing the floor as his left palm was facing the ceiling the blade was covered in blood and the tip of the sword was inches from the ground. Then the sound of feet taping against the ceiling had went through Kazuki’s ears and he also heard flapping of a robe and the sound of a kimono.

Kai: “Who is up their, normally someone would have fallen to the ground. The two swordsman must be great fighters.” ((He said as he crossed his arms and then tried to listen for where they where at.))

Kazuki: “One of them is defiantly Monk Zaku, the monk who raised me after my parents where murdered. He is a far greater swordsman then my self” ((As Kazuki said that he faintly heard Zaku’s voice talking to his attacker and then two bodies flew down to eye level in the sky and strikes at each an land on the ground in a cross formation, their sword at perfect balance in the air as they kneeled on the ground and then swiftly spun around and ran at each other again. from Kazuki’s current location he could not see much but a dark shadow around their bodies. The thick black cloud made it impossible to find out who was who. The two then jumped back into the air and vanished from sight again.))

Kai: “Could you make out their faces by any chance?” ((He asked as he walked to the center of the room where the two where just fighting, then Raziel and Akura came running over to Kai.))

Akura: “Whoever those two where, the are great fighting and they did each other’s technique.”

Raziel: “That looked familiar to me, but I don’t remember where I have seen that style from.”

Kazuki: (( lessened his grip on his sword as he grabbed a talisman from his cloak pocket. and threw it into the air)) “That style originated her in Japan, that was no other then the Falling Dragon Hammer Attack. Only samurai from an old time knows it and most of them are monks now, only way another can know it is if he was taught or was coping the style from his opponent” ((Kazuki said as he then grabbed the talisman with his right hand from the air and walked over to the middle of the room with his friends and held his hand in the air)) “Great power of fire grant us light of Courage, Ignite Flame of Courage!” ((He chanted as the Talisman produced a great light from a white flame and then the flame explodes into several smaller flames and flew over to the candles in the room and caught them a blaze, luckily there were many candles with in this room. With that the room was bright enough to see the two fighters and the whole fight.))

Raziel: “....Look out here they come” ((Raziel said as he grabbed Akura’s waist and then jumped over to the left and Kai and Kazuki also jumped to the left out of the way of the two fighters as the came down clashing their blades head on, their faces where inches apart.))

Akura: “Thanks.” ((She said as she then stood up on her own and watched the fight as she walked over to Kazuki.))

Kazuki was watching the two fight, a tall man the one known as Zaku on Kazuki’s right was wearing a all white robe with a black obi tied on his waist, his sword sheath was a dark green darker then his eyes, as the bright white light touched them, his bold head was perfectly shaved, his white clothes were stained in blood from his arms and his legs. The attacker who was on the left of Kazuki and facing Zaku, was a tall man he wore a black kimono with a white moon on the chest area going over to his right sleeve. The man had pitch black eyes burning with the desirer to win at all cost. His short black hair laid on his neck as his bangs covered his right eye, the smell of blood was all over him his sword was the worst. Not only was human blood but the blood of demons. Who was this man and why was he attacking the temple.

Monk Zaku: ((Not turning his head but looking from the corner of his eye he saw Kazuki and the others standing there watching Kazuki looked as if he was going to snap and jump in at any moment.)) “Tell me warrior, what is your name.” ((Zaku said as he held his sword at the center of his body holding the man’s sword back from cutting him.))

Man (????): “I am know as the Demon of Life, the one who takes life from his opponents. The vice-commander of the Elemental Demon Society, I am here to kill you and then Kazuki Makaru. My true name that he knows me by is an old one and one that is haunted in his nightmares.” ((The man said as he pushed Zaku’s sword back along with Zaku the man jumped back a couple of feet and then stood their his right leg crossed over his left leg, his right hand held his sword as left hand stood at the bottom of the hilt of the sword.))

Kazuki: “A name in my nightmares, a boy that I know, Jin Dentichi. His name is Jin Dentichi.” ((Kazuki said as he griped his sword and took a step forward))

Kai: ((Kai grabbed Kazuki’s arm)) “We have to watch this one; if we don’t I think more blood will be spilt then what will be needed.”

Kazuki: “If we don’t do something, Zaku will be killed, look at him he can barley stand.”

Akura: “Kai is right, we have to watch no matter the out come.”

Monk Zaku: “Kazuki, you have been a great student I want to tell you that we found their location they are in a secret area in North America, unfortunately we could not find out where that was, but know if I die know that I am proud of you and the one who order the attack on your parents was no other than The Demon of Life.” (( As he finished his sentence Jin dashed forward with his sword and slice at high speed and was behind Zaku, as Zaku’s body fell to the ground the man stood up from his crouching position and lifted his sword in the air with his right hand and then swiped at the ground swiping off all of the blood on to the ground.))

Kazuki: “Noooo!” ((He screamed as he ran for Jin)) “I can never forgive you. Vengeance is mine!!” ((He yelled as he slashed his sword from the left across Jin’s chest, Jin quickly blocked Kazuki’s strike with his own sword, the clashing of the two blades was intense. Jin threw Kazuki back with his sword and then started to dash for Kazuki while he struggled for balance. Just then a yellow flash shot across Jin’s face just gazing his nose. It was Zazu, the monk that Kazuki meet before his journey.))

Monk Zazu: “Take one more step and I will kill you here and now.” (( He said coming out of a shadow area of the wall his right arm was in the air being held up by his left hand, his right palm had a yellow orb in it and it was pulsing with energy.))

Jin Dentichi: “Kazuki, we will meet again, and next I will kill you.” (( With that said his body turned into a shadow and vanished into the hard wood floor, along with the other demons and dead bodies of monks.))

Kazuki: “Darn, why was I so angry, I need to stay calm and focused” ((He said falling to his knees and his bangs covered his eyes his sword stabbed in the floor.))

Monk Zazu: “Yes, you do and so do all of you. We of the Purifying Society of Light, or angels have bought you some time, we have one month to get you all trained and ready for the greatest battle of your lives.” ((He said as he walked over to Kazuki’s side and placed his hand on his shoulder. ))

Akura: “Oh no you don’t I am not going back on to heavenly ground ever again. You know why.” (( She said as she turned around crossed her arms))

Raziel: “But, that place is for angels like you.”

Akura: “Its more then you think. I was born and raised their, being a half demon made it worst on me. My stupid wolf demon father killed my mother after boring me and then killed himself. That man was crazy and made the angels think I was like him.”

Monk Zazu: “That’s not true. The head commander of your unit told you that lie to protect you from the truth.” ((His voice was ferrous and yet not hatful))

Akura: “....Why?”

Monk Zazu: “So, you would become a demon hating angel and a dark angel carrier. By doing so you would become like your sister who was the one who killed your mother and father, she is also the real person behind the Element Demon Society, she created it and for her physic powers she had visions of a group of kids who would stop her plans to over throw the Society of Light. She turned old friends into enemies, relatives to enemies and killed many loved ones.”

Kai: “That’s what links us together our dark passes link us together. The horror of lost of a loved one, and the pain form losing them at a young age.”

Monk Zazu: “Correct, so what do you say. Will you come with me.”

Raziel: “I will, I say lets get these guys who killed our loved ones.”

Kai: “I will go too, I think we have come to far to give up and walk away.”

Akura: “Ok, I am in, I will get back this so-called sister and show her what happens when she makes a wolf angry.”

Monk Zazu: “And you Kazuki, what will you do”

Kazuki: “To, Zaku I will make this vow, to stop all this at the cost of my life, and to my old friend Jin I will defeat you and restore you to your true self.”

Monk Zazu: “With that said we shall set off now.” (( He waved his arm in a circle in a white spinning vortex with a purple and black light opened out of nowhere. Zazu walked over to the portal and stood there.)) “Enter when you are ready to go.”

Kazuki: (( Kazuki started to walk first as Kai and the others followed, Shin flew quickly and landed on Kazuki’s shoulder and then let out a happy wail, Yuffi was walking slowly next to Akura.)) “Lets go then, to the city of Angels.” Kazuki said

Kai and Akura and Yuffi first to jump into the portal with shin, followed Kazuki after them Zazu and Raziel walked into the portal. The warriors yelled as they felt pain and a vomiting feeling as they spun around in a circle in the vortex, as they where coming out of the vortex a bright light blinded them. Kazuki covered his eyes from the light and looked at the city, Their where many people with all white Kimonos and robes, and all the people had large wings coming from their back. Each person had a different set of feather colors and not the same.
