With some distance ahead of him to his new mission location. Kiyoshi stops by a nearby town to stock up on supplies. He walks around the town with his hat on his back to avoid drawing attention to himself, since this town and the towns neighboring it were in the midst of a civil war, and any mysterious strangers could be seen as a spy. Strolling along the roadway, Kiyoshi could observe commoners tending to their chickens and sheep, and other livestock. The women and men surveyed Kiyoshi as he passed by whilst the children kicked balls and chased dogs in the street. Kiyoshi continued wandering until he arrived at a tavern called The Liquid Gold Tavern. The old wooden building looked centuries-old as termites eating away at its structure. Drunken men stagger and fall amongst themselves with clothes soaked in urine and vomit. Kiyoshi trekked up the old wooden stairs, which creaked and squeaked with each step Kiyoshi made. Making his way inside the tavern, Kiyoshi avoided the drunk and di
Kiyoshi enters the bar. He looks around to see if the stranger in the hoodie form early was present. He eyes the patrons, who are all in their own right, very mysterious looking. Most of them wear masks and other garments to cover their faces. Kiyoshi leisurely strolls through the bar when he feels someone staring at him. He immediately turns to see the hooded figure from before staring at him from across the bar. The two briefly share eye contact before adverting these eyes from one another to avoid drawing attention to themselves. Within minutes Kiyoshi arrives at the table and takes a seat next to the hooded stranger. Even though the face of the stranger is hidden, Kiyoshi could tell by the person's frame that they were female. "Good day. My name is Christina Grutte Pier, and I presumed you are Kiyoshi Kataigure, the blood samurai." Remarks the stranger as she gently holds on to Kiyoshi's hands. Her soft and plush hands easily melt into Kiyoshi's own. "Grutte Pier, I know I have
As the moonlight shined in the cell, it revealed the faces of the two men. One of the men was skinny and old, at least sixty years of age. His face was wrinkled and scarred. His dull blue eyes looked tensely at Sarah. His hair was grey, and he wore a silky purple robe. The man beside a halfling had spiky purplish-grey hair, red piercing eyes, and a pointy triangular chin. He smirked to reveal fang-like teeth, making him look more like a vampire than a half-elf. The halfling wore a brown robe and necklace with a moon on it. "Look at the great and powerful Sarah Grutte Pier. Once a powerful warrior, now a prisoner in my dungeon." Laughed the old man as he spat on the feet of Sarah, to the pleasure of the other man. "I am honored that the duke will come all this way just to spit on my feet." Replied Sarah will a belittling smile on her face. The other man, displeased with Sarah's response, slapped her across her face. "How dare you disrespect the great duke of Lutter en paix, Louis Rap
Kiyoshi arms himself, preparing for a fight when one of the hooded figures removes their hood, revealing themselves to be Christina. With her crystal blue eyes filled with tears, she rushes over to her beloved sister, embracing her in an everlasting hug. Sarah, overwhelmed by her sister's embrace, gently rest her hand on top of her sister's head, stroking her hair softly. Long streams of tears continue from Christina's face as she remarks she is overjoyed by Sarah's safe return.For a brief moment, Christina raises her head from her sister's shoulders, whipping away the tears from her eyes. She slowly walks over to Kiyoshi and thanks him for saving her sister."I know it may be just a job to you. But I am indebted to you for what you have done, not only for me and my sister, by for all of Anges du sol. Thank you." Remarked Christina with a bright, angelic smile as she continued to whip the tears from her face."You always were a cry baby Christina. But am here now and I am safe. And w
Outside of their hideout, Sarah finds Christina standing in the wilderness looking up into the night sky. Standing behind her Sarah informs Christina that it's time to address the out members of Anges du sol before their battle with the Tucsons and the duke. To which Christina replies I know before making her way back inside ignoring her sister as she passes. As Christina passes by Sarah extends her hand out to her sister but pulls back at the last second deciding to leave the family drama until after the battle is won. Sarah rests her hand on her forehead well shaking her head as she slowly follows the still upset Christina inside. Back inside the hideout members of the Anges du sol surrounded Sarah and Christina as they made their per battle speech to the group. Kiyoshi stood off in the back to a corner drinking as Sarah starts. "My fellow sisters and brothers, we stand here today awaiting our greatest test ever. We await battle with the Tucsons and the Duke. Though we may be outnu
Early the next morning, everyone inside the hideout awoke to the sound of loud explosions and terrified screams coming from the town of Lutter en Paix. All the members of Anges Du Sol gather themselves, throwing on their armor and weaponry, preparing to head into town to combat the invading forces. Sarah quickly organizes the member of Anges Du Sol, grouping them for their specific duties before heading outside to meet Kiyoshi. The members of Anges Du Sol quickly disburse from their hideout, heading in different directions as they prepare to engage in battle. Sarah slowly emerges from the hideout after everyone had left, to gather Kiyoshi for both of them to depart. "Are you ready to go, samurai?" Asked Sarah as Kiyoshi removes himself from the rock he had spent the entire night on. Kiyoshi nods his head as the two make their way to town for their climactic battle to begin. In the town of Lutter En Paix soldiers wearing Tucson's armor patrol the town in large numbers. They force them
The bullet that killed the duke entered through his left eye and out through the back of his head. Sarah turned and looked off into the distance. She softly remarked, Thanks as she waved her hand to someone but no one else but her was present. From about five kilometers away from Sarah's current location sat Christina in a canopy of a tree in the woods. Her rifle still smoking, as if it had just been fired. Her left eye is completely green with multiple red rings inside of it. A far cry from its usual color blue as she activated her power, which gave her the perfect aim she used to kill the duke. Christina turns away from looking in the direction of her sister as she scouts ahead for incoming reinforcements. Sarah looks around for Kiyoshi and finds him attending to the injuries of those who got caught in the crossfires of the Tucson and the duke. As she makes her way over to him, she hears a familiar voice talking to her. "Where do you think you're going?" Remarked someone from the b
With monstrous rage and intense flurry, Sarah swings her down and the massive sword connects with the ground in seconds. Arthur arose from the ground checking to see if his head was still connected to his body and it was. As Sarah walks around from Arthur he calls out to her wondering why she let him live when they were in a heated life-or-death battle a second ago. Sarah annoyed turned to her sobbing brother and remarked that Christina was right she couldn't kill him because they were the ones that raised him and that are siblings and the only family they have left. But remarked that his crimes against the group couldn't go unpunished but she couldn't bring herself to kill her little brother regardless of what he had done. Sarah then proceeded to walk towards a fallen log and sat on it whilst all the while staring at Arthur who was brought to tears at this point. "So what happens to me now?" Asked Arthur as tears streamed down his face. "Exile!" Sarah proclaimed in sadden tone of v
