1-5: Hatori vs Yume

[Hatori]

Dust slightly flying in the air as a light breeze swiftly went across the barren waist land. Only a few things still seemed to grow here which where dried up patches of grass that easily crumbled under Hatori’s heavy boots. A few rays of light seemed to peek through the gloomy and gray clouds that seemed to cover the sky like a blanket. It felt like a dying feeling that you only get when you where on the brink on madness or insanity. It felt as if life was absent and forgotten like time it self, but even the thought of death didn’t scare him, No not at all for he lived for death it was his thing.

Hatori slowly walked not looking back as a small breeze shifted his hair all about. His blood red eyes shifting all about as he stepped upon the blood stained land. In his left hand he carried his beloved shakujo that now rested upon his shoulders. His eyes seemed to narrow just a bit as he slowly came upon a flat peace of land. Hatori stood there for a moment scanning the land around him as a smile appeared on his semi dusty face. His body soon crouched down running his fingers through the sand feeling the texture. Hatori’s eyes soon widening in surprise as he could hear someone coming closer to the area. His hand that was once in the sand soon dug deep into the earth picking up a hand full of dust. A insane look seemed to form on his face as a wide grin spread across his face. In the distance he could see two figures coming closer and closer. He could tell that one was a young woman and the other was a tiger or what he thought was a tiger. Hatori smiled as he stands awaiting his new victim’s arrival….

[Yume]

Yume slowly made her way through the barron waste land that only the dead could enjoy. Karurie slowly treaded along side her ember like orbs looking up at her master wondering what she was thinking. Her tigers orbs soon turning to see the shape of a man in the distance and growled fiercely as she stared down the man.

Yume’s head seemed to cock to one side as she heard Karurie’s growl.” what is it girl? You see something?” she said as she turned to look out at the waste land. It took a moment before her eyes rested upon Hatori a chill running up her back as she went into a steady pace. After a short while she finally reached him staring him down like a hawk. “What brings you out here?! “ Her voice was strong as she crossed her arms seeing the sand run through his fingers. is he crazy or something?.... He must be. she thought as she slowly placed her hands upon her twin blades. Karuries jaws slightly opening to release a fierce and deadly growl showing no fear towards the man, claws digging into the earth’s surface ready to attack. Yume on the other hand stood there staring into his eyes showing but a hint of fear of death for she didn’t wish to die now. No, not now not while her brother was still out there somewhere...Her eyes soon narrowing as she prepared her self for what ever was to happen.

[Hatori]

Hatori just smirked as he looked down upon Yume and her tiger with little interest or fear, In fact it just made him laugh as he watched the tiger threaten him with growls and stares. “Aww, how cute a kitty cat…you know tiger’s fur sales a lot these days. I wonder how much money I would get off of the beast.” His voice was low and dark and if he was insane or close to it in some way. His eyes soon turning back to Yume as a smile seemed to slowly creep across his face. “What brings me out here? I should ask the same question to you my dear. But since I'm a nice guy I'll tell you ‘why’...I'm here to make your last days on earth a living hell any questions?.." His voice seemed to change to a more happy-go-lucky tone, as he brought forth his shakujo letting the sharp crescent blade touch the ground with such ease that it hardly made a scratch on the earth’s surface. “Oh by the way before I forget, what is your name? So that I can carve it on your grave stone after words… “With that said Hatori’s fingers slipped down the silver rod to mash a small silver button unhooking the crescent blade from the long staff. Once the blade hit the ground chains seemed to fallow behind it showing that it was still attached to the staff. Hatori smiled brighter than ever as he carefully lifted up the chain and blade so that it was loosely in his fingers. And when he was done his smile seemed to disappear, as he started twirling it above his head in a windmill like motion. As the chain and blade spun faster and faster the dirt around his feet began to shift showing that the blade was now at accrete speed. “Well are you ready?! I hope you are because there’s no turning back now, Missy!”
