"He is too strong." Susanoo says while he is being bandaged up. They are in a place more beautiful than human eyes could ever see. The sun shines a golden light on the pillars that Susanoo is being bandaged under. The giant city that is sprawled out before them is the same. Golden light envelopes the city of heaven.
"He was stronger than the God of the Sea and Storms? How is a low Demon that powerful?" A strong womanly voice says from the shade of the pillars. Unknown to everyone, she hides who she is.
"Im sorry, sister. I tried my all. But he is anything but a low Demon. His power level is insane. I underestimated him and it caused me to lose. I wasnt able to summon my full power at that moment." Susanoo is now covered in bandages.
"You disgrace the Heavens, brother. Until you take his head, you are to not return. Live among the mortals until you are able to bring the Demon known as The Whistling Oni down.""You fought a God, Taka." The hooded woman says, as she is bandaging Taka's chest up. His chest took the brunt of the damage from Susanoo's sword. Blood is still dripping from his wound, even while being bandaged.
"Why wont my wound heal like my arm?" Taka says, looking down at his chest.
"When Susanoo attacked you he used a Godly Technique embuing his sword with anti heal basically. Its a deadly and heartless approach, but its one that is needed to kill a Demon. They realize how much of a threat you are to them." The woman laughs.
"I'll just kill more." Taka says, standing. They are in a dark room, hardly anything is able to be seen except the bed Taka is next to, the portable table that has the bandages and tools on it, and the hooded woman.
"You are what is known as a Demon Legionare. You are more powerful then they realize. On your journey to find the next target, look for a woman who goes by The Enchantress. She will help you in your fight against the God's."Taka walks aimlessly through the streets. Looking around, mainly for food. His stomach continues to yell at him. He stares at a sign that reads, "呉の生麺"
*Wu's Fresh Noodles*
"That sounds good." Taka mumbles to himself. He walks in and is amazed. The place is a Crimson Palace of beauty. The outside looked so rundown, but the inside looks like the finest of dining. He sits himself at a table. Nobody is in here, he doesn't even see a waiter or anything. He opens up the menu and looks over it. His eyes catch the number two menu item, "豚麺"
*Pork Noodles*
He sets the menu down and waits. As he looks around he sees a bar, but no bartender. There's a second story but no sounds from up there. The kitchen doesnt have people moving about at all. Seems awfully quite for such a beautiful place. A lady appears next to him.
"Hi! Im Mrs. Wu! I run this place. Glad to have You! We dont get many visitors! Know what youd like?" She asks Taka with a huge smile. She seems innocent and charismatic. Taka feels safe around her.
"The number two please." He says with a smile that, for once, isnt demonic."
"Coming right up!" She says, grabbing his menu and disappearing into the kitchen in a flash. Not too long goes by, when four men walk in. They look like common thugs. One has a Mohawk, he stands in front of the rest. They all are wearing leather jackers and jeans.
"Wu! Come out here!" One yells.
"Hey, bitch! When youre called, you come running!" The one in front says, presumably the leader.
"Have some respect." Taka says, without ever looking up from the water on his table. He stares at the condensation as it drips ever so slowly off the cup.
"The fuck did you say?" The leader asks.
"Have some respect. Shes an older woman, working her ass off. You guys should try it once you're done jerkin eachother off of course." Taka smiles, a still normal smile.
"I dont think you know who you're talking to, bro!" One of the lackies laughs.
"Yakuza id assume. Some shit family that can only control an older woman. Weak and pathetic. I know." Taka says, finally looking up at them.
"You got a big mouth." The leader walks over and slams his hands on the table. Knocking over the water.
"Clean that up." Taka says sternly.
"The fuck? No." The leader laughs, looking back at his goons. Taka stands, grabs his neck, kicks his knee out from under him and slams him into the table. He pushes his face against the water and the now broken cup.
"Clean. It. Up." Taka says more agressively this time.
"FUCKING KILL THIS PEICE OF SHIT!" The leader screams from the ground. The goons remove their guns and open fire. To which, Taka picks up the man, and uses him as a human shield. Those idiots never stop firing either, they keep unloading their guns into the dead leader. Blood has splattered all over Taka, and the ground around him. He throws the body on the broken table as they begin to reload their guns. Taka smiles, this time, the devilish smile we all know and love.
"Fuck fuck fuck" one of the goons says as he drops his magazine. He picks it up and stands, just to see Taka standing there in his face.
"You shot your boss, dummy." Taka laughs as he sends his right arm through the mans chest. He moves his hand a bit once its on the other side of the man. The rest of the goons freak out, and go to shoot Taka. Taka lifts his right arm, and swings the man at them. Once they lost their shot for a second, he throws the man at the one on the left. He walks up to the one of the right, and looks him up and down. The man is shivering and pee is running down his leg.
"Pitiful." Taka says before punching the man in his leg, causing an explosion on the other side of where he punches, almost like an exit wound of a bullet. He then quickly does the same to the other leg before the man can fall. Once fallen, and screaming, Taka turns just in time to see a bullet scrap his cheek and fly into the wall. After firing that shot, the man panics and freezes. Taka then takes a look around and notices the place has blood all over it, a broken table, and a screaming bloody man trying to squirm away. The man is dragging blood with him. Taka lets out a soft version of his whistle. The man who took the shot that hit Taka, slowly walks up the stairs. Mrs. Wu walks out of the kitchen and screams. She drops the plate of food, but Taka catches it right before it shatters.
"They wanted to hurt you. Plus, they called you a hurtful name." Taka says, devouring the noodles right where he stands.
"Did- did you do this?" She asks.
"Well, yea-" Taka is cut off when a body comes flying off the second story, landing on the screaming man. Killing them both.
"That, I did not do." Taka smiles while continuing to eat the noodles.
