Chapter 5: The Journey Continues...

"No... No!!"

A scream erupted within the snowy walls of the Shindo Dojo, a defeated Taigen kneeled on the white ground, he shifted his hand to the top of his head as his head felt unusually cold. Feeling a large area of skin instead of hair, his hand soon possessed a large bundle of tied hair... his hair bun had been cut clean as he growl in shock and fury. He looked behind him, only to see the men who stood with him against the "intruder" but turned in disappointment, leaving Taigen alone as he looked down in shame. Gritting his teeth as he gripped his loose hair tighter in a fit of rage....

This samurai will pay....

————————————————————————

Within a familiar soba restaurant, was an old man... squeezing a rag which oozed with red as he was seen cleaning the blooded floor of his restaurant. A exhausted sigh escaped the elder's mouth as he raised his arm to wipe the sweat that trickled down his face...

Owner: *sigh* The last of it... who knew one man could bleed so much.

???: You're better off cleaning than cooking... when does your son get back?

The elderly man looked towards the voice his mouth agape as he couldn't comprehend the situation that his restaurant had received which was the result of his missing son. A sigh of disbelief was heard before a gust of the winter wind blew into the restaurant, paired with the sound of heavy footsteps coming closer as the sound grew ever so louder. The whole restaurant soon turned silent... turning to the sound of the heavy thuds that rung throughout the restaurant. The Owner looked up, breaking his eyes from the rippling water within the bucket as a shadow fell over it... only to spot a large male, played in black and red armour, his face... obscured by an Oni mask. Accompanied by three other armoured men, standing in dominance over the elderly owner...

A gasp escaped the elder's mouth as he now brewed with a nervous rush, bringing his hands together as he recognised the four individuals. He's voice quivered as he witness the arrival of this group...

Owner: The Four Fangs! W-What an honour, may I get you something to eat?

Seconds of silence passed before the masked leader spoke out, a mature semi deep voice rung the room...

Fang Leader: A samurai came by here... young... arrogant... he cut four fingers to get a name, tell me what you know.

???: Shut up! Can't you see we're trying to eat.

A voice boomed in the restaurant, as the Owner turned to look at his customer, his eyes widened as if he had foreshadowed this rude individual's demise. As if this person was unaware of who the Four Fangs were... the owner turned back to the leader, very much fearing the worst. The oni masked leader turned his head slightly to face the rude customer, as if he was ordering his subordinates telepathically, two of them drew their blades wielding weapons in both hands. Before persuading the table of the interruptive victims.. screams couldn't have the chance to escape, as blades made contact with the flesh of the customers as blood spattered around the restaurant. Soon to have internals stick to the ceiling... this left the owner in shock, as he now feared he would be next. The loud thuds of the two fangs echoed around him as their blades emerged in front of him.

Owner: He was here two days ago, he spilled blood everywhere! ... which is fine... then he left and he took my son, an invalid. That's it!
