(Haru&Ryoko step out the portal and looks at there surroundings a barren wasteland the grass that once grew withered wind whips by slowly over them carrying nothing but only a feeling of despair )
Ryoko: Haru? What happened here... the land? Its-
Miroda: (begins to whimper looking around frightened looking at ryoko then haru’s face)
Ryoko: shhh don’t cry (bounces him walking forward)
Haru: let’s head over there maybe we can find some answers over there (points toward the smoke that seems to float over the canopy of the tree tops
Ryoko: looks at Haru who is walking beside her (still remember the little kid she met just yesterday seeing the gates to the village in front of eyes)
(Every villager walks by with wiry legs some of them in tattered clothing the guards they stop and stare asking and begging them)
Villager 1: please help... why did the king abandon us? (Walks off pulling a cart of sharp wood)
Haru: (looks over at them with no emotion in their faces as if they had lost all hope and continues to walk through the village trying to find answers hearing others groans of pain they feel in there hearts) what’s going on here
(Another villager walks by them speaking something under his breath)
Villager 2: what did we ever do to deserve this...? I would rather be dead then serve his highness (coughs and walks away into the crowd of slaves)
(The guards would approach them looking at them)
Guard: you there. Why aren’t you working!!! Like the others! (Looks at the bundle in ryoko’s arms) what do you have there (reach’s to grab the bundle)
Haru: (quickly grabs his wrist with a face with no emotion and looks him dead in the eye) don’t... You... dare touch her!
Guard: looks at Haru with a smirk then speaks with a voice filled with sarcasm then with anger) YOU DARE TO TALK TO ME IN THAT MANNER YOU PATHETIC WORM!!
Haru: (becomes angered and clench’s his fist)
[Haru then throws the first punch, the guard then grabs his wrist and punch’s him in the back of his torso, then kicks him in the back of his leg unsheathing the sword that rest at his hip and threatens to have him be headed before everyone Haru closes his eyes flinching as a sudden cry breaks out the guard then stops , Haru then opens his eyes seeing some one standing before him his arms stretched out ]
Taro: that’s enough Azar!
Azar: (looks at the teen and sheaths his sword) well... well... What do we have here an EX – Solider that betrayed us. Just to save the life of the dammed prince!?
Taro: (lowers his arms to his side still standing in front of Haru) I did what I must.
Azar: what is that to betray us and rot along with these peasants?!
Taro: no. My loyalty was to king Zetsu not to a false king.
Azar: why won’t you get it through your head Taro! The prince is dead!!!
Taro: (remains silent)
Azar: such silence only comes from a traitor... That’s why you were placed here...Where you belong with all the others who decided to betray the king
(Azar then leaves only leaving Ryoko, Haru and baby miroda, Taro in the village square)
Haru: (stands up looking at taro still standing in front of him) thank you for helping me back there I thought I was going---
Taro: (looks back at Haru and Ryoko) you’re not from around here are you?
Haru: no. We aren’t we are from here...
Taro: I can tell from your weird clothing you’re not from around here.
Haru: (remains silent) ya… but I feel we have met before…
Taro: have we? Did you train in the plains of the infernal?
Haru: no
Taro: it’s strange I feel like we have. Or maybe my memories are getting a hold me again... You look a lot like my old friend Zetsu... (Looks at all the villager pass by glancing at all four of them and walks away slowly)
(Haru & Ryoko follow taro to the hill side where his house sits close to the castle but not to far from it they enter the house looking at his home and sits down looking at the fire that sits in the middle of the room a dark brown screen to his right and a small window to his left )
Haru: who was that guy back there?
Taro: (looks at the fire) he was my best friend..
Haru: oh
Taro: my father once lived in the castle he was the captain of the guard for king Zukimaru and queen Hitori. I still remember that day Zetsu was only about 10 years old the crowned prince Zetsu
