Volume 3 Chapter 10 : Recca and Kurei recca : heh! hahah...... 400 years? Is your head working all right? I’ve never seen you before! but I don’t feel sorry at all! finally you little coward! speak! where is my princess? kurei : the person you want is in the room behind me playing guinea pig! interested in a little chat first? you deserve a little prize for making it this far! this is my compliment for your efforts-- (holding sekiou’s head) please accept it! (throws the head at them) recca (domon’s surprised) : seki... ou... ganko (scream) : ahhhhhh! fuuko (cover her mouth) : cruel...... kurei : this guy can’t even stop three kids, it’s useless for him to live! I’ll take back the weapon and find someone else! recca : you...... you bastard...... (flame appear) YOU FUCKING BASTARD! HAVEN’T YOU HAD ENOUGH YET? fuuko : recca!! domon : kill him! recca! at least sekiou was a fair opponent, how could he...... ganko : his hand’s on fire! (recca jump at kurei, kurei very please, cruel laugh) kurei : this is the proof! now I’m sure it’s you! recca! (recca’s flame hits kurei) recca : !! (the flame comes into contact with kurei, but kurei holds it back carelessly with one hand.) recca : what? my flame’s been blocked? kurei : I said we could chat a bit! only stupid animals act sentimentally! (throws recca back so effortlessly) recca : hurts! fuuko : recca! hahah...... things will happen in order...... you’ll die later. right now-- you at least have three questions for me don’t you? number one, why did I kidnap sakoshita yanagi? because I have a very powerful father, a father who has everything except for one thing. mori koran (flashback) : [kurei! I want life...... I want to have eternal life...... no matter how many will be sacrificed, my dream will come true......] kurei : because of his efforts, finally he found the solution...... sakoshita yanagi! (scene of yanagi healing recca in the mirror house) mori koran : [this is the girl! her healing magic is a supernatural power, it’s the way to my eternal life!] I want her! recca (playing stupid) : what are you talking about? what healing power? go home and tell your stupid old man! princess ain't got such a power! kurei : unfortunately we have proof. recca : [...... shit! fucking old creep...... what eternal life? he actually kidnapped princess for this?] stop day dreaming! (punches kurei, demonstrating that he is that kind of stupid animal who acts sentimentally) kurei (easy dodge, didn’t even move much) : question two, why did I kidnap tatesako fumio? recca (tatesako hung, unconscious) : what did you to do sensei? kurei : just a few doses of truth serum, he’s not dead yet...... have you heard of the hokage ninja? (recca freezes, remembering the things about hokage that his teacher said) tatesako (flashback) : hanabishi! have you heard of the hokage ninja? kurei : during the time of the warring states, oda nobunaga united japan committing many evils in the process...... such as killing his own brother, burning hiei mountain, killing innocents in his pointless war...... then...... the fourth year of tensho! he faced the 53 ninja clans led by Iga! in that battle, the nameless hokage were also there! unfortunately-- nobunaga over powered them with his huge army! the hokage clan seized to exist afterwards...... the modern day theory was that nobunaga hated ninjas, he was afraid that they might oppose him one day...... but, that’s not the truth! oda nobunaga’s only fear is the hokage ninja! because the hokage owns the strongest weapons this world has ever seen! they are the hokage madougu! they are created from magic, science, natural elements, only the hokage ninja can make the madougu, this is the only thing oda feared! after the hokage were wiped out, the madougus were lost all over the world...... deep in the mountains, sunk under the ocean...... no one has used them again. I believe I can use their powers! the magical power of the madougu is no less than any modern weaponry! and to me who must resort to killing sometimes, it’s the simplest way! so I start to search for them, and finally I dug up a few of them! the ones that couldn’t find are down to the three elements you are holding-- fuujin, dosei ring, ensui! domon (thinking) : huh? but I didn’t take anything. [? ? ? ?] arrow (his nose ring) : dosei ring kurei : the existence of the hokage should be held in absolute secrecy, tatesako’s curiosity put him in my way. to me, he must be eliminated! kidnapping him was only to know how much he knows, I’ll cancel him if necessary! recca : are you done? not only did you take princess for your coward dad, now you wanna kill my teacher! are you crazy? what hokage, what madougu...... it has nothing to do with us! kurei : oh, it has a lot to do with us. question three, who am I? the answer-- just like you, I am a member of the hokage clan! the ninja who crossed time and space to the future! recca : what are you talking about? tatesako (flashback) : [some legend says they can control time as they wish, other say they can also control fire!] kurei : I don’t care if you believe me or not, I’m done. now it’s your turn to give some answers. who gave you the madougu? (all three of them immediately have the picture of kage hoshi in their minds) domon (thinking to fuuko) : you won’t tell will you? fuuko (thinking to domon) : ha! I’m not that nice! recca : it’s kage hoshi! fuuko & domon : you stupid asshole! ganko : ? fuuko : you idiot! why did you tell him! recca : he answered so many questions for us, I’ll feel bad if I don’t even it out! kurei : kage... hoshi? [.........] is it the woman with two moles on her chin? recca : so what if it is? kurei : [KAGERO! so she’s moved here to this time also?] good! the conference is over! with these information, I can do my research on you all! recca : you’re done? then let me get something straight. I did swear to become a ninja, but not a historic ninja! kurei (thumb down) : fool! you want to fight me with your puny power? clear your head downstairs! everyone : !!? (the floorboard below them open, they all fall down the pit except for recca who grabs the edge.) recca : ah! domon! ganko...... fuuko! (kurei steps on his hand) kurei : if you can get up here again, then I’ll play with you. it all depends on yourself! recca : damn you! (look up) kurei... just wait! one day I’ll make you beg! just hold your breath and wait for me to take care of you once and for all! (he lets go of the edge and falls into darkness.) kurei : it’s you’re choice to enter hell...... I really want to see...... show me what you can do! end of volume 3 chapter 10 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [ Email | Lynx | Updates | Sign My Guestbook | View My Guestbook ] Search the Net [1]
