Unknown beginnings

The day was a normal day. Kids running around in the streets with their kimonos on smiling and giggling. The town was a beautiful and peaceful place. Untouched from the war it was a safe haven for injured soldiers of both sides.

It all changed when the sky went dark. And the rumbling of footsteps shook the earth like a great earthquake. A single man approaches the town on a black horse as dark as the night with armor, the man's aura gave off the impression he was powerful.

"THOSE OF THIS PEACEFUL TOWN LAY DOWN THE SOLDIERS YOU HIDE!!! WE KNOW THAT YOU ARE HARBORING THE ENEMYS GREAT GENERAL NATHAN!!!!

Inside their homes the people whisper to each other knowing full well what he was talking about. The town mayor walks out to meet the proud warrior.

"Sir we do not harbor the great general you speak of. Yes we harbor enemy's of the empire but they are injured and unable to be a threat to the empire. Please do not harm the town, but we will not let you take the prisoners."

- The warrior listened to the man but as the mayor finished he dismounted his horse he walked up to the mayor and stood in front of him, a towering figure about a whole foot taller then the Mayor-

"You know the price to pay for harboring enemy's of the empire don't you?"

-The mayor nodded his head knowing full well what he was in for-

"I offer my life in exchange for the town to live and be able to do as they wish."

-The warrior sighed and looked at the mayor and then at the town-

"This used to be a bigger place where kids used to play outside not scared of a thing. War wasn't a thing. It's such a shame to know the place has become such a place of treachery."

-As the mayor turned to look at his town once more the warrior sliced his hand outlining the mayors neck, as the warrior mounted his horse the mayor fell as his head fell from his body and rolled away.-

"THOSE OF THIS TOWN IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO JOIN THIS MAN'S TREACHERY I BEG THAT YOU GIVE ME THE GREAT GENERAL OR DO NOT BE UPSET FOR WHAT I DECIDE TO DO!!!!"

-Right before the warrior orders the army to destroy the town, the great general steps out of the town hall-

"You wished to see me? My old friend." - The great general smiled as he looked at the massive army that lay before him-

"You used to be able to destroy such a measly force alone without any trouble but look at you now. Your strength and your will to fight have left. Why did you join the republic? Why did you fight for the side you knew was going to lose?!"

- The warrior looked at the great general with a look of what the general thought as sadness-

"I joined the republic because they were going to lose but if they were to lose everything would change and one day the empire will fall not to then people but of someone else."

- The great general dropped his kimono and showed the bandages covering his whole body the only thing covering him was his gi pants-

"Now will you do me the favor and let me die in battle by you my greatest friend, Emperor Ryan."

-The great general takes his battle stance the ancient stance that only the general knew the famous demon torture style-

"You're a fool for thinking that the empire will ever fall or I will ever lose to anyone."

- The emperor dismounted his horse once more and takes off his breat plate armor and shoulder guards and takes his stance, heavenly crusher.-

The two great warriors flew at each other with ferocity you'd think two lions were fighting for territory. The great general struck with his fists trying to find a spot to twist his opponents energy but as he threw a strike as the emperors chest the emperor parried and palm strikes him so that it sends him flying backwards. As the great general tries to get back up he throws up blood all over the ground as he gets on his knee.

"What strike was that? I've never felt or heard of that strike before?"

- The emperor walks up to the general as he looks down he pick his head up and holds him in the air-

"The emperors judgement."

- The general grips his wrist trying to free himself from his grip as he laughs-

"Of course it would be you to make a new powerful move in the middle of a war. You are a genius."

-The emperor thrusts his hand into the generals heart and crushes it the moment he does-

"Thank you my friend, I made this move especially for killing you."
