As the prince clashes with shura he pauses in the middle of their fight. "Might ask if image of mind is wrong or does the heat it feels hot more so than before?" The prince stands up idly  straight and looks around to the other two puzzled by this phenomenal situation, kaza picks up on the prince lack of participation and stops his movement as well. "I dont feel hot, its probably because your worn out from training with master all day, sides, it should be around night by this time why would it be hot?" Kaza deduce with confidence yet concern in his exhausted voice, shura watches the two boys talking amongst each other and lowers his blade as well. "No, the young prince has a point, precisely because its night it should gradually become much colder in here, the fact that its not is unusual." Shura explains bemuse by this outrageous situation as he looks at the still baffle prince, who strangely doesn't utter a word but quietly stands in place in the middle of the wooden floor of the dojo.     

"Hear do you, that sound as well?" The prince curiously cast his eyes on kaza. "Hear what ka chan?" Kaza walks over to the prince in an attempt to hear this sound the prince had heard but to no avail, it ends in vain. "Know not that i do." The prince takes a glimpse at the door on the far right end of the dojo, shura sheath his sword. "(I wonder what it could be.) Okay students lets put our match on hold, sakura would you be so kind as to wait back there momentarily?" Shura flashes her a comforting smile that catches her off guard, in nervousness she looks away. "O-okay shura." Sakura bashfully hold onto her sleeve of the dress to hide her face. "Ill do of the checking, problem to see might what it be." The prince offers and heads over toward the dig door with his sword in hand still from the match with shura, he respectively puts his footwear back on that he had previously removed from entering the dojo, he opens the door completely speachless standing there frozen in place he looses the grip on the sword and it falls to the ground, kaza sees this unnatural sight of the prince and wonders over to see himself in order to investigate the problem, like the prince be puts his footwear on as well. "Ka chan, whats wro-" Kaza doesn't get a chance to finish his sentence as he starts to look up from his footwear he had put on, he shares the same view as the still tranquil prince.          

As they look outside at what was once called the market town, all thats left of it now are burn down, crumbled up building and stalls no citizens in sight as of present, as the crimson fire mingle with the flammable wooden stalls and buildings causing it to spreads quickly and easily throughout the market town, the fire creates thick smoke lingering the streets of the town that could be mistaken as clouds drifting into the sky making it hard to distinguish where the street actually is, as the scarlet flames rise in velocity and volume it rises high into the sky creating the illusion of a blood moon, with no stars around to keep it company the lonesome moon reluctantly yet forcibly raises slowly and looms in the distorted sky above the destroyed town, with the visibility of the moon, you could faintly see a face of the mood unwilling, yet sorrowfully look down on the unfortunate town signalling the embark of the approaching end.               

Loud shouts echo throughout the deserted town in the far distance, that seems so far away it gradually fades in time. "Wha- What be this?" The prince horrify by the unthinkable scene before him, he instinctively takes a step back but ends up stumble over the hilt of the sword that feel on the ground down backwards on the hard wooden floor. "I..I dont understand, how did this happen? Everything was normal when we got here!" Kaza confused helps the prince on the floor up once again, shura immediately walks over to see what the scene was about and stands in surprise and regret at the once lively town. "I knew something was wrong the moment i layed eyes on you, but never did i expected you to go this far anthia." Shura mutters to himself as he looks down on the two unprepared boys in his care. "N-nothing seem strange out of... mother she was of the odd. (Become strong and live the life you want, i alway loved you.)" The words echo throughout his mind. "Mother said you were not to be of the time here today for training... this you known must have to keep the safe of me." The prince struggles to utters while tears form in his innocent eyes that stream down his warm cheeks uncontrollably, it catches kaza attention. "Ka chan..." Kaza looks at the prince with pain expression as he finds himself at a lost of words.
