I am a Bushi now. Moradobushi Mr. Kitty calls me. Only my closest pals remember me. I hope I can rely on them. I hope the burden I have put on little Indigo isn't too much. This has to be done though. Alpha has to be stopped.
I can hear him when I touch the sword, Samishii. He speaks to me now, and his words aren't unwanted.
"Mijo, it's me, Samishii, if you can here me then you have become a Bushi, those who wield a Bushi's blade and are not a Bushi are driven mad because they cannot communicate with the voice within."
"Sam, what do I do?" I ask.
"You have become a Bushi, you must complete the task that drove you to become a Bushi," Sam replies.
"I have to protect my pals, I have to defeat Alpha," I say raising the sword.
"Now is the time mijo, go to her, she is waiting for you," Sam says his voice fading away.
Dark clouds circle the sky as thunder cracks shaking the ground. Dr. PAL's lab, no, Alpha's lab, has changed to a large spire like that of the tower bosses. I approach cautiously to find Moon lying at the bottom of its steps. She's been physically abused. I lean down cradling her in my arms.
"Moon, are you ok?" I ask petting her head.
Her bright violet eyes open wide and she reaches out running her paw against my cheek.
"Morado, do you remember me?" Moon asks.
"I'm sorry Moon, I only remember you as ever being a pal, I have no memories of you being human," I reply.
"Morado, Moon was never a human, Moon only showed you that because she was afraid you wouldn't love Moon if you knew, if you knew Moon was only this creature," Moon says as soft sapphire tears roll down her furry cheeks.
"Moon it was never about-," I'm cut short by Rapido's swift approach.
"Moradobushi, Jessica encroaches upon Mount Obsidian!" Rapido yells.
"What does that mean?" I ask.
"The world Ender beast approaches its destiny, the calamity begins, only the will of the samurai can stop it now," he says moving close to me.
I can see in his eyes he wishes for me to mount him so that we can ride to Mount Obsidian to stop Jessica.
"Rapido, how much time to we have?" I ask.
"Two days," he replies.
"We'll need them both," I say cradling Moon in my arms.
As a Pal I can't build much, but I can make a bed for Moon and Rapido. I skulk about a small camp trying to get my bearings. It's strange walking around as a pal. I feel I'm moving someone else's body with my mind for a while. It's only after much practice that I become accustomed to my new form.
