InuYasha Fan Fiction / Rurouni Kenshin Fan Fiction ❯ Infernal Blade ❯ Prologue ( Chapter 1 )

Prologue

It was a lovely day in Hiroshima. The trades were doing great and everyone was happy.

"Hey, Tawasaki remember those oxen you lent well I accidentally shot and one with my poison arrow." A man called.

"You did what!" Tawasaki said

But neither man could stay unhappy for very long, it was too good of a day.

Slowly it turned from day to night. It was a pitch-black night.

"Somebody help us the town is on fire!" a woman screamed.

The roaring flames slowly engulfed the town. Everywhere the buildings were burning down to the ground. Women and children were jumping out of houses only to see the streets were on fire. Men screamed for their wives and children cried for their parents most people were trapped in the flames. Others went back in to get some more people. Then a figure, who was about 6 feet tall with red eyes, silver hair, and a samurai sword, walked casually out of the flames. He seemed to be crying, wait no, he had on a smile, and he was laughing!

"You did this didn't you!" a warrior yelled but no answer came from the figure, "What did you say!" the figure just smiled. "Bastard! I am going to kill your retard ass"

"Wait! Don't you see he waiting for you to attack?" a younger warrior warned, "He is anticipating your move."

"Shut the hell up you dumbass before I kill you too, he burned my family…"

"Oh dear were right over here, we're fine!" a woman exclaimed.

"Well he burned up my stuff"

"Nope we got that out too!"

"He burned down the village, okay!"

"Go ahead and attack, you shouldn't keep people waiting," the figure taunted.

"Bastard!" the warrior yelled as he charged at him.

The warrior ran swiftly and attacked the figure. He pulled his sword from his sheath as he ran to strike the figure but the figure dodged his attack. The warrior turned back to attack again but before he could reach him he was impaled by the figure. The figure twisted the sword causing the warrior to wince in pain.

"This is the reason why listening to your elders is so stupid." The figure exclaimed.

"See I told you mommy, that is stupid!" a little boy said.

"Be quiet," his mother said.

The figure picked up the warrior and with one fluid movement he decapitated him.

"You bastard!" another warrior yelled.

One by one warriors tested their skills against the figure. One by one they were slaughtered unmercifully by the figure. Only one remained now, the younger warrior that warned the first.

"Go home runt!" the figure said, "I will spare you."

"Don't underestimate me," the young warrior yelled.

The two began to fight. It seemed like hours that they were fighting each other. One attacked and the other blocked the blow. Soon the figure became pissed at this warrior and decided to resort to turning it up another notch. Unfortunately so did the warrior. The figure struck his sword into the ground and said a few spells. Then suddenly flames came from the earth and flaming dragon came up from Hell and roared mightily. The warrior took his sword and pointed it to the sky. He also said a few spells and a dragon in the shape of a lightning bolt came down from the sky. Then the dragons attacked each other with exact unison of their masters. When the smoke cleared, the warrior was still standing with the head of the figure in his hands. Then suddenly the head and its body caught on fire, killing the warrior. Both bodies were burned to ashes and blown away by the wind.
