Kikyo, the Dragon of Shadows Part 6

Last time...

“Ha, I….always…knew…that…I could…count ….on…you,” Lee whispered out as his hand fell to the ground and he took his last breath and fell into the darkness. “Lee, Lee, NOOOOOOO,” Kikyo cried loudly, “Don't leave me alone like this!”

“Please Lee, come back okay, please all right I promise I'll be better than before just please come back,” Kikyo sobbed as she rocked herself back and forth in tears. “Is he died,” Lord Hao asked the mysterious man who stood next to him. “He is dead for that attack did too much damage that it did,” the man said.

“Good riddance and besides he was weak anyways,” Lord Hao said while laughing, “Yes that's right, he was weak and pathetic for letting himself be murdered to save some worthless woman. Kikyo hearing all these things said about Lee, lifted her head up, but it was only for a moment until she dropped her head again. Then seeing Kikyo's action the killer turned his attention back to Lord Hao and then to Kikyo. “Lord Hao,” the man whispered fiercely. “What boy, can't you see that I'm celebrating now,” Lord Hao snapped at him. “Yes, I can see that, however, I think that it would be in your best interest to cut it short that I do,” the man said.

“You do, do you,” Lord Hao asked with a smirk. “Yes that I do,” said the man as he watched Kikyo's movements. “Well that's why you were hired to protect and kill for us instead of thinking,” said Lord Hao. “Lord Hao stop being a fool for it you don't stop with your words, you will regret it that you will,” the man shouted.

“Be quiet, you are not the person in charge here and so I will do as I like and besides Lee was a fool blinded by love and sympathy which sealed his fate from the beginning,” Lord Hao managed to say as he laughed again.

After hearing Lord Hao words against Lee again, Kikyo lifted her head as her eyes flashed back and forth into the embracing darkness. “What a waste of time that Lee was and then he had the nerve to insult my best warriors, ha, what a fool,” Lord Hao said as he continues his verbal attack on Lee. Then the man tired of listening to Lord Hao

foolishness, turned to Kikyo again to see that not only was she moving, buy she was reaching for something on the floor.

“A life for a life and taking two more shouldn't matter,” Kikyo whispered to herself as she reached for the sword that Lee had placed on the ground. “Lord Hao, I think we better leave that I do,” the man said with a look of worry on his face. “Nonsense do you hear me nonsense,” Lord Hao said laughing.

That fool is going to get himself killed that he is. However, that does not mean I have to suffer the same fate that I do, the man thought to himself. “Where do you think you're going,” Lord Hao said after he realized that his savior was leaving. “I have to go do something that I do,” the man said as he continued to leave. “No you don't for I forbid you to go anywhere until I give you anorder,” Lord Hao commanded.

“Well in that case, I quit that I do,” the man said while stopping and turning to face Lord Hao. “What, you can't quit,” I'm the only one who can allow you to quit and I won't,” Lord Hao shouted. “Whatever, you're wrong as always Lord Hao,” the man said as he started walking away again. “Stop right there, did you understand what I said, you can't quit until I allow you to,” Lord Hao said.

“Hao, I'm quitting that I am and if you are wise you will quit too that you will,” the man said. “And why is that,” Lord Hao said. “Because, if you haven't notice yet there I someone who would like nothing more than to cut your head off that they do,” the man said reaching the exit.

“Um, and who is this someone that you are referring to,” Lord Hao. “You know, it's funny how you forget people so easily but I think I could refresh your memory pretty quick if you turn around,” a voice said in the shadows right next to Lord Hao's ear. Lord Hao being the fool that he is turned around to see Kikyo standing in front of him a sword in her hands read to kill at any moment.

“Boy get back here and protect me,” Lord Hao said looking at the man who was leaving the room. “No because you brought this on yourself that you did and like I said I quit,” the man said turning the doorknob and leaving the room, “Oh ya, and Lord Hao I hope u like fire because that's where u're going to find yourself in for the rest of eternity. So good-bye. “Boy I command you to come back now boy…boy…ahhh,” Lord Hao screamed as a slash across his chest ended his life.

“So you just left him to die that you did,” said a man to the leaving warrior. “That is correct,” said the warrior. “You know she is going to kill you too that she is,” the other warrior said. “Then let her try and besides from what I could see she is only going to remember one thing while she is hunting for me my voice and my words. Which will save me better than most would think,” the warrior said as he continued his path to the exit and out of its door.

 

 

Back to Kikyo…

“A life for a life,” she said after she dropped the sword she was holding. Watching Lord Hao as he drew his finally breathes; she walked to Lee's body and lifted him unto her back. “I will keep my promise to you, but I will also keep another which is to kill that warrior who thinks that he can kill you and get away with it,” Kikyo said as she began to walk out of the room.

“I will kill that warrior and I will never let this anger go until I do or may a curse befall me. This is my promise to me and our clan.
