The snow softly falls outside as I gaze outside my window pondering the events of 4 hours ago. I insisted to be left alone after I arrived back at the Manson and to my surprise Slenda allowed it but recommended that I come to her office later for the final step in being accepted into her house. She has some nerve asking me that after what happened, but I'll listen just so I don't have to deal with her getting mead again.

I'm unsure what the visit will entail but I pray it's not worse than taking an innocent life, when I was first brought here I thought I could ignore the killing the rest took part in and I assumed I wouldn't have to join in it but I was naive thinking that,  understand I can't fault them for it, from what info I've gathered humanity has scared and hurt them in many ways I have yet to fully understand, all they seem to want is to be left alone and only a select few I've met seem to enjoy killing, but I don't......I HATE IT.

The feeling of taking a life is something I'll never forget, when I plunged my knife in and watched him take his last breath something died in me like I lost a piece of myself, as I'm thinking over today's events my gaze makes it's way to the case I was given, I haven't opened it yet and considering I'm alone now's a good time to see what's inside.

Slowly I pick it up off the side of my bed and set it on top and look over the case. It's made of a high quality black leather with no company logo and two silver buckles keeping it closed. Slowly I unbuckle it and open it.

"I was expecting documents or something but this is unexpected?" Inside the case was not document's but a set of clothes and something wrapped in a red cloth picking up the cloth I set it on my bed and unwrapped it and to my surprise and awe it was two short swords one black with a red gid like pattern on the blade and the other a fully white blade and on the gold hilt of both swords was a Yin and Yang symbol.

The swords sitting in front of me were beautiful and I could tell just by looking at them that they were perfect together smiling slightly I picked them up in my hands and admired them.

The blades were equal in wight and fit very comfortable in my hands, looking over to the case something else is sitting in it, I carefully set the blades down and pick up the next item and set it out on my bed, "well look what we have here" what I set out infront of me was an outfit.

The outfit consisted of a black kevlar chest piece but apon further inspection I noticed it was way more flexible than kevlar and was lighter, then next items were a pair of reinforced black pants with a few pouches, black combat gloves, and a pair of combat boots with some kind of metal covering the toes.

"Thank you" I mutter as I go to pack everything back into the case for later but I noticed a pice of paper at the bottom of it picking it up and unfolding it I realize it's from Jonathan and I start to read.

'If you are reading this it means I have died and moved on to the next world I'm sure you're curious about the contents of this case. The swords names are Konhou and Bakuya "The Married Twin Blades" they aren't your average swords they have an uncanny ability to be thrown like a boomerang and come back to the welder as long as one is in hand, they also have an ability if welded together to increase their durability and sharpness. As for the armor it was made by me personally it is made of an improved kevlar material created and mixed with alchemy and dark energy said energy comes from the blood of an elder being those who have lived for many thousands of years and I'm sure if you found this case you have ran into one of these beings. My only hope is that you who may be reading this uses these blades to protect and not destroy in the act of destruction you sully the name of he who made them the great sword smith

Senji Muramasa.

Sincerely Jonathan B. Manson

Senji Muramasa the mention of that name makes my eyes widen Senji made these blades!. Now it's my job to make sure they aren't used to harm innocent lives, looking down at the blades I smile.

"Don't worry I promise to put them to good use" saying that my eyes begin to glow a golden color and I begin to Trace them so just in case they break in the future they will always be in the armory Senji created in my mind.

"Trace On, Conceptualizing, Understanding object makeup, Trigger On And Set" saying those words caused the blades to glow blue signifying that they were copied and stored.

"Man this ability is nice although I wish I hadn't accidentally traced all the knives and cutlery in the kitchen when I went downstairs" finishing up I put everything back in the case and set it in my closet and leave my room to talk to Slenda on what she wants.

Standing in front of her door I knock and her voice singles me to come in, as I walk in I see she's sitting at her desk reading a book.

"you wanted to see me?" I ask while shutting the door behind me, looking up from her book she frowns slightly "yes, it's time for you to finish your assimilation into the Manson as a Proxy, but I will warn you there is a chance me turning you into a proxy will kill you, when I brand you it will be the greatest pain you will ever feel and you might die from shock" she says getting out of her chair and walking to stand Infront of me.

"what will me becoming your proxy entail?" I ask looking up at her.

"you will become almost immortal, have increased strength, stamina, reflexes, and increased senses, but also if you betray me or try to kill any other residents of the Manson you will die, are those terms agreeable?" She asks.

"And what about my sister?, I won't just abandon her" I say glaring at her slightly, seeing my mood shift she put her hand on my shoulder and gently rubs it causing me to get uncomfortable at the sudden kind acton.

"If you become my proxy you're problems become my problems so In short you're sisters safety and retrieval will become a high priority" surprised by her sudden change in attitude gets my attention.

"why do nice all the sudden just a few hours ago you threatened to kill me, hell when I tried to fight you, you could have just killed me and had been done with it!?" I yell confused.

Seeing my emotional outburst she sighs "I'm sure you're quite mad at me by making you kill someone but that's just how things work here, we kill those who wish to do us harm be that with paper, words or fists, I made this Manson so that those thrown out by society may find companionship and family, I am sorry I threw you in the deep end there and for that I am truly sorry, if you choose to become my proxy I swear I will help you find your sister and those responsible" she says seriously.

Hearing her words and apology surprised me because knowing she was willing to say these things ment she had a heart and was more than what I thought she was and seeing this I made my decision.

"Fine.......I'll join you but I have a request..." I say sitting down on a chair by her desk.

Slenda seemed to ponder for a second before nodding "I don't wanna kill anyone who hasn't hurt innocent people or done horrible things I will not go through that again that's all I want.........please" I ask praying she'll agree and to my surprise she does!.

"Very well I can agree with those terms, I could tell you were shaken up by what happened and I don't want my proxies depressed and complacent in battle" she says walking back to her desk and out of a drawer she pulled out some kind of needle with a black liquid in it.

"Is that what I think it is?" I say surprised "yes this is a vile of my blood and putting it in your bloodstream will hopefully brand you, now hold out your arm and be prepared because once I inject you there's no going back" she says gesturing to pull out my arm.

"Uh ok but before we start should there be any side effects I should know about besides possible death and excruciating pain?" I ask nervously putting my arm on her desk.

"Not really you should be fine any changes will be inconsequential. She says flicking the needle causing the black liquid to leak out slightly.

"Alright......I'm ready when you are" I say nervously.

Slowly she injects the blood into my arm.......nothing happens for a few seconds before I feel a burning sensation and black out.

Hope you enjoyed this chapter have a good day.
