Chapter 7: Justice
"What's a Teigu?"
The tentative question directed towards Akame pierced the silence of the pursuit for the Executioner of the Empire, Zanku. Since the serial killer was known to be active at night, the assassins split into groups of two, in order to cover more ground.
Tatsumi, nervously holding his hand up, was met by Akame's blank stare.
"...This." Akame stated, holding up her katana with a red hilt. Engraved in the hilt's white plate were strange characters foreign and unknown, the blank ink seemingly still fresh.
"I...I don't get it." Tatsumi replied, understandably confused.
Meanwhile, in the headquarters of Night Raid, Akira was seen writing furiously on a piece of paper, the scratching sounds of his pen against the paper filling his room. Morgana was asleep at his side, various infiltration tools cluttering the desk.
"...A thousand years ago, the first Emperor who founded the great kingdom of the Empire found himself...worried." Akame began.
Next to Akira's arms was a book titled, "History of the Great and Powerful Empire." It was tossed to the side, and had a knife stabbed in the cover, most likely thrown at the tome.
"'My only wish is to protect this great country for all of eternity, but my time will come to an end,' he thought."
In front of Akira, in the middle of the clutter, was a book that he had swiped from Najenda's office, thanks to Morgana's help. It was a book about every currently known Teigu, and their abilities to boot. Turning the page, Akira resumed his frantic scribbling, a serious expression on his face.
"If I can't live into the future, then I shall create weapons and armor that CAN endure into the future.'"
Akira looked at the current page, finding the Teigu, "Roman Battery, Pumpkin." Akira smirked, brushing his hair away from his face."So this is what Pinky uses...It uses spirit energy as ammunition? Perhaps something similar to a Persona..." Akira muttered, scribbling his thoughts down. "It's customizable, and it get's stronger when backed against the wall? Strange...Better not underestimate Mine because of her attitude and pink clothing..."
"To fulfill his will, the Empire gathered raw materials from Danger Beasts, searched for rare metals, and summoned only the finest craftsmen from all around the world."
Akira turned the page again, greeted by the sketch of a belt, and a rough sketch of a human growing beast arms, claws, a tail, and animal ears.
