All that could be heard was the screams of injured and our people, who were hiding out in the dojo. We fought until sunset and beyond. It was dark and lanterns were the only light sources. I know what living in the Edo and Meiji Era would've been like now.
I clutched my sword by my side and stood in a fighting position, waiting for their attack. It seemed to last forever. I switched from nervous to extremely motivated multiple times. I look around to see an unfamiliar scene. A battlefield of corpses. It seemed unusual. But I continued to fight. My strongest enemy was right at me at this point. I managed to get 7 down, but 4 remained. I turned around to a sudden shot of nothingness. I dropped my sword on the floor and covered my eye as blood trickled down my face. They laughed as my anger slowly enlarged.
With a sudden choice, I turned around, swinging my sword. One, two, three and four! Out of breath I did a 360 turn annihilating all four of them. Blood splattered all over me, and the walls. Relieved, I got to my knees. Although, I was more than shocked at what I achieved.
After a while, the others finished their battles and reunited at the centre. I stayed in the same place. I could barely move. I felt as if I had accomplished an extreme thing. Although, I really just added names to list of my murder victims. Shuya and Ryutaro slowly approached me. I couldn't tell if they thought I was dead or were just being lazy. I'd say both. I stood up and slowly turned to face them as I regained my strength slowly. They looked at my eye that was pouring with blood.
"The hell happened to you.....?" Asked Ryutaro.
He looked.... well..... slightly terrified.
"I fought, won, and paid a price. Unluckily that's the sight in one eye" I replied.
Shuya walked to me.
"Better get you cleaned up" he said looking at me.
His look went right through me. The three of us walked to the centre. Minako, Yoshiki and Asami were helping everyone. Shuya must of thought I couldn't see at all, he was guiding me around like a new born puppy. It wasn't that bad like this. I got to see all their suprised faces with my remaining eye. They covered my head with a bandage. Everything seemed fairly quiet after this. Apart from the obsessive thanks coming from the civilians that filled our day of unnecessary reminders. We may not have lost much that day. But we did give it. Resulting in a loss.
