Kaishakunin

<The Meiji era (Japan 1868)> ____ After revolution that bringed back the reign of emperors Japan was left to build itself once more. Political relations, functioning of the country, building trust, gaing favours, setting positions... ____ All of this didn't bothered the shadows. Invisible to normal people, hidden in the dark creatures didn't bothered if it was a new reform or another rebelion. All human tasted the same... Demons, Oni, Devils... Sometimes they weren't interested in humans. Sometimes they wanted just observe. Sometimes they were just curious. Sometimes they were striking faster than the flash of light. Regardels of purpose and intentions all of their head were sliced the moment they were spotted. In the woods. By the river. In the temples or towns. Mostly at night, sometimes during the day. A war no one saw. A slaughter only the one involved knew about. ____ Ninja. Shinobi. Shinobi no mono. Wariors chosen by the gods. They didn't decided about thier fate. Fate decided for them. The ones with the curse of seeing. Once born with "mi (見)" sign on their body they were cursed to protect, slice and draw thier katanas the very moment they saw an Oni. Without hesitation, question or doubts. Their blade had to be free from worries, confident, merciless. Only then their blade could shine the brightest. ____ Her (Mitaka) - calm and composed at all times, no matter what obstacles are faced. Never showing emotions, never losing patience, never trembling. A perfect shinobi. "You manage to win my loyalty. I don't mind you having my back." Him (Yorasu) - sharp tongue and babbly mouth. Never shutting up even in the heat of battle. May seem dumb and too goodhearted but in his blade there's never even a hint of hesitation. "I'll go with you to hell, my lady" ____ Be a narrator, create your own story😉 please read the comment.
