Akai me no kirā

Chapter 1: Introduction

Narration -
It's a dark, cold, stormy night in the abandoned ruins of the city of Yokai. Bandits roamed the city as the wind blew, making it harsh weather to move in. They went from building to building searching for supplies. These bandits were part of a much larger group that rules a chunk of the city. They're disgusting people with no remorse. Cannibals. Demons. As the storm grew stronger, they found a building to take shelter in for the night.

Dialogue -
Bandit #1: Guys! You see any shit worth taking over there? I ain't findin' nothin'!
-
Bandit #2: Nah, the place has already been fuckin' looted and destroyed. 
-
Bandit #3: I found some food over here. We ain't leavin' this building tonight, there's no way. That motherfuckin' storm is a bitch. Stay away from the windows, the wind is strong.
-
Bandit #4: Aye, we can stay in this room right over here, there ain't any windows.
-
Bandit #5: Yeah yeah, I'll start a campfire. Everyone lay down your sleepin' bags.

Narration -
The bandits set up their camp within the building and prepared food over the fire. They all gathered around the small campfire for warmth and began eating as the food finished cooking. From the shadows, a figure watched them as they ate and chatted; waiting for the perfect moment to strike. As they finished eating, they all laid down in their sleeping bags and got ready to sleep, they had to wake up early and head back to their base with all the supplies they gathered. As they laid down, they were fast to sleep, since they had a long day of scouting. The place was extremely quiet, all that could be heard was the raging storm that took place outside of the building. Wind blew in from the other room causing the fire to fade. At the moment the fire went out, the figure from the shadows hopped out with a blink of an eye, striking 5 of the bandits within 2 seconds, slitting each ones' throat, killing them. With 5 of the bandits eliminated, there was just one left. From the sound of a blade swinging, the last one woke as blood splattered across his face. The bandit screamed "YOU MONSTER!!!!" clearly petrified, you could tell from his facial expression and trembling voice. The figure wearing all black with it's bright, shining red eyes starred back at him as if they were piercing through his soul. Without hesitation, the figure quickly charged at him, slicing his throat. The bandit just watched as it happened, frozen with fear. Blood squirted all over the walls and floor, the place was a mess. "Eliminated." Said the figure in a quiet, calm, and soft voice. He swung his blade, causing the blood that was on it to fall to the floor. He began looking through their scouted supplies to see what they had gathered. He took most of the food and other useful stuff, but one bag in particular had caught his eye. When he opened the bag, he saw the cut up limbs of humans. The bag smelt like horse shit and rotting flesh. It was awful. The figure took the bag and threw it over the bodies of the bandits and set the place on fire. Quickly, he left the building and moved to a building across the street. Once on the roof of the tall building in the dark, stormy night, the figure placed two fingers on his ear. He had a small earphone that he used to communicate with his allies and boss. "Targets eliminated." The figure reported to his boss and hung up right after. The figure hopped from roof to roof as the storm was dying down slightly, making it easier for him to move in it. He had a small camp nearby which his partner was staying at. Once the figure arrived, a voice was heard from a few meters  away. "What took you so long, Aka-hoshi?" Said the voice  in a calm, but worried tone. "Apologies. The storm took a while to die down and the bandits took their sweet time to fall asleep." Aka-hoshi, the figure who assassinated the bandits and set the building on fire said in a quiet tone. "It's fine, as long as the job is done. I assume you got some stuff from the bandits as you are carrying that bag with you." Aoi-hoshi said, giving Aka-hoshi a curious look. Aka-hoshi took the bag off his back and opened it, dumping all the stuff out on to the floor to showcase everything he got from them. "Ah, you got a decent amount of supplies. How long do you think they had been out scouting for? My guess is about a 2-3 days." Aoi-hoshi said in a joking voice in attempt to get Aka-hoshi to open up to him. "I would say maybe 2 days..This is not all they had. There were limbs to human bodies and more, however, I burned it all." Aka-hoshi replied as he sat down and began to fall asleep. Aoi-hoshi sighed and looked at Aka-hoshi as he was fast to sleep. He never seemed to be able to get Aka-hoshi to speak much, but there was nothing he could do about it since Aka-hoshi always got the job done with no problem. "I guess it can't be helped..." Aoi-hoshi sighed as he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
