Why does she just stand there out in the open? “Yumena-Sama!”  One of the Taka Ninja’s rushes headlong intercepting an enemy ninja by stabbing it in the back with a kunai before jumping closer to Yumena. “Yumena-Sama?” The Taka ninja continues to run towards Yumena who stands clearly in an opening of the forest.

“Stop!” Yumena catches the ninja by the shoulder freezing him in his spot from behind.

“Yu-Yumena-Sama?” The ninja struggles to move as Yumena pulls him back a bit.

“You were caught in my gen-jutsu (Illusion) as well.” Yumena removes her hand as he starts to stretch his muscles as she points the direction she saved him from,

“I was?”

“Really, she’s your older sister!?” Hatsumi sputtered out as Zeff’s sister eyed up Hatsumi across the room. “I mean she’s so much more attractive than what I imagine from your stories. And how is it she looks as young as you Zeff-sama?” Hatsumi tugs on Zeff’s shirt again as Zeff’s sister smiles in turn.

Zeff rubbed his forehead as his gaze fell down at the desk.  “Yumena Taka; she is no less innocent then you are.” Zeff pokes Hatsumi on her nose.

Hatsumi frowns and continues to stare at Yumena.

Yumena smiles then diverts her attention. “I am sorry Tenzo-sama of the Hoga of Sunaomo; Zenju-sama couldn’t make it. We were ambushed shortly after leaving Takane. Most likely from the revolutionary group but we can’t be too certain. We decided it would be safer if Zenju remained in Takane so we came in his stead.” Yumena softly bowed.

“How fortunate you were ambushed.” I softly said glaring at the Taka’s across the room as I clenched my unseen hand.

Location:  Sunaomo no Sato pt. 1

                Sunaomo; like home, at least for a time and now I return…

                The group reached the main center of the village brought there by Sunaomo guards.

                “Tenzo-sama” Zeff bowed earnestly towards the man standing before them. Hatsumi followed Zeff and paid her respects before looking around.

                “So there is someone even a piece of trash like you whom you are even respectful too, I am amazed.” Hataya looked off to the side after closing his mouth. Hatsumi clenched her fists and glared at the man.

                “Out of respect for Tenzo, and the Sunaomo people I will ignore your ignorant cowardly mouth. But should you speak again like that outside these walls Hataya, you won’t be a coward like your parents you will be a dead man hanging from my walls for your pathetic family to see “. Zeff raised his hand and Hatsumi pulled it back down before shaking her head and then glaring back at Hataya.

Kazima Lament: Desert Castle pt.3 (continuation: 2)

“So some of the villagers started to show signs of animosity towards Zeff? Events and accidents not truly associated with him, he started too blamed for? And evens till some villagers most likely spoke out about him learning your clan’s secrets…am I right Tenzo?”

Tenzo sighs before nodding. “You are correct. The mysterious nature of the Kazima and Zeff’s previous experiences made him already reclusive to the point only a few knew his identity. So I can understand a little apprehensive however he had my full faith and still. They don’t know the power he contains and can wield. The proof comes from the fact that they all live despite the severity of the accident.”

“What happen to him after the accident?” Yukari squeaked out.

“He woke a week later; Zeff had managed to survive despite the grievous wounds through the abilities of a Kazima. The abilities of a Kazima depend on the type of blood they acquire.”  Tenzo stopped and looked at Zenju.

“You’re fond of him aren’t you young Taka.” Lady Mayu smiled again as she slowly walked side by side with Yukari.

Yukari blushed slightly before shaking her head. “No… well maybe a little I have always liked Zeff. He was admirable when we were kids. Always tried help even when the other families didn’t want to have anything to do with him. So I guess I can understand why he is so cold…it’s just I…”

“You wish he was like his childhood self?” Lady Mayu looked down at Yukari as they slowly walked through several arch ways.

“o-of course I do!” Yukari stopped and put her hand to her mouth as she blushed. “Sorry.” She looked down at the floor. “I wish the war that reached our village was ended before it had… Zeff had a hard childhood as it was. Maybe, if only the war had never started or if it happened later and Zeff could have showed is worth, his mettle that…then maybe these events wouldn’t have happened.” Yukari sighs.
