"It's all been destroyed it's impossible. Who or what could have done this?"
Jin gasps in realization, "The MASTERS?!?!"
Jin runs to the The Villages Temple where the master stay frantically looking for anyone of the Masters to be alive one after another all he finds are dead men until he comes across Grandmaster Miyamoto.
"Grandmaster! Grandmaster! Grandmaster Miyamoto."
"Cough cough cough Jin what are you doing here?"
"Grandmaster I'm back from my mission to find Toji Village like this what happened here?"
"We were ambushed by a swarm of demons."
"What?!?"
"It happened in the dead of night when our security is on a skeleton crew."
Unknown to them Luna enters the room quietly standing in the doorway listening in.
"First there was an explosion down by the river." (cough) "After we sent troops to check it out the village (cough cough) was swarmed in every direction."
"There is no way a bunch of low class demons came up with a plan like that. What the hell is going on?"
"That's the thing it wasn't just low class demons they were led by a mid class demon. (Cough cough)"
"But that's impossible no mid class demon can get passed the barrier."
"This demon was unlike any other I've ever seen Jin (cough) it looked like a human, (cough cough) but that's impossible no human can wield demonic powers like that."
"Survivors where are all the survivors?"
"I don't know if there are any. Besides you everyone had returned from missions last night."
"Are you telling me that they knew that everyone was going to be in the village and when we were going to have the least amount of security?"
"These demons where uncommonly organized (cough) no way they are regular demons."
"Balthazar!"
"It must be (cough cough) these past years he must have been gathering an army of low class demons to cross the barrier."
"He must know about Luna."
"Luna? You found her you have found the reincarnation. ( Cough cough cough cough)"
Luna walks in and speaks up "Yes he did."
"Luna?!? I told you to wait!"
"Jin hush now boy, come come here child."
Luna walks over to Miyamoto and Jin. Miyamoto looks into her eyes.
"Yes yes I can see her in you."
"Excuse me sir but I overheard you say everyone had returned from their missions did you not have anyone else overlooking possible reincarnations?"
"(cough cough) she is a smart one Jin. (Cough) yes we had others out but not all at once we couldn't spare the man power, (cough) so we would send units out one at a time to look at if the reincarnation had awakened.... Jin (cough) (cough)"
"Yes Grandmaster?"
"This is my last mission for you (cough cough) you must continue to protect Luna she is a target as long as she has that power inside her. So you have to find a powerful magic wielder, you must go to Montavelo Village find the Head Sage. He should be powerful enough to remove her dormant ki."
"I shall fulfill this final mission Grandmaster Miyamoto even if it means my life."
"Now go leave me I don't have much time left let me go in peace."
"Can't you use your Ki to heal yourself I heard you guys can do that?"
"Normally I could but my injuries are far too severe for me to do so. Now both of you go now and Jin you must not fail."
"I promise I won't fail."
Jin and Luna leave the temple Luna hugs Jin from behind
"Jin. Jin. I'm so sorry."
Jin wipes the tiers from his eyes
"Its fine its fine it's not your fault, let's get moving I have a mission to complete."
"Jin it's ok to cry just take a second to..."
"I said its fine LET'S GO!"
"Ok but where?"
"Back to your house we will regroup and figure out our next move."
"Ok."
Luna and Jin head to the exit of the village where Minou is but before they can leave an energy blast comes flying at them. Jin pushes Luna out of the way.
"DODGE!"
The energy blast hits the ground and causes an explosion.
Luna falls to the ground from the force of the explosion.
"What the hell! what was that?"
"Luna are you ok?"
"LOOK OUT JIN!"
Another blast comes straight at Jin. Jin escapes the blast just in time.
"Who is doing this? Could the leader still be here?"
At that moment a girl's voice can be heard from the shadows.
"You will pay for what you have done."
Another blast comes soaring towards Jin. Jin pulls out his swords and with a loud yell swings at the blast and sends the blast back where it came. The blast strikes a nearby building and it blows up. Out from the explosion comes a girl jumping out of the smoke.
"Ha! Nice try but it will take more than that to beat me. Take heed I am Maya Toriyato, I am a Guardian of this village, and you will pay for what you have done here."
"Maya Toriyato??...... Wait!"
Maya charges Jin and starts throwing punches and kicks at him. Jin is simply blocking and dodging her attacks not fighting back.
"Maya wait! Stand down I said STAND DOWN! We are on the same team."
"Liar!"
Maya continues attacking Jin, Jin continues to dodge.
Luna watches in amazement, "Wow that girl is amazing but she can't even land one shot on Jin."
"Maya I'm telling you the truth I'm...."
Pow! while trying to explain himself Maya lands a punch right in Jin's mouth.
Now Jin is pissed, "Ok Enough!"
Maya throws another punch for Jin's face, Jin catches the punch with one hand puts his other hand on her chest, then takes his leg sweeps her, and sends her crashing to the ground.
"Listen up it's like I said I am not your enemy if I wanted you dead you would be. I am Jin Motozaway, maybe you heard of me."
"Oh my god you're Jin Motozaway?"
Maya gets on her hands and knees bowing to Jin.
"I am so so so sorry please forgive my stupidity."
"Get up please, and tell me what you are doing here I was under the impression that no one survived this attack."
"Um well you see.... I wasn't here during the attack."
"But the old man said everyone had come back from their missions?"
"Who the heck are you?"
"Mind your tone she is the reincarnation of Lunalesca, Luna Yi."
"WHAT?!? FOR REAL?!?"
Maya runs over to Luna and falls to her hands and knees.
"Please forgive me. PLEASE forgive me. I would've never shot my ki arrow at you if I knew who you were."
"Um it's ok."
"Hey get back to telling me how you survived this mess. You said you weren't here then where were you?"
"Well you see we had level 3 Guardian exams coming up so I was supposed to be off training but I kind of snuck off to a cave, I like to go off to and took a nap."
"Wait so you're telling me you are alive because you were lazy?"
"Damn it if I was here I could have made a difference."
"No, if either of us were here we would have died along with them. Grandmaster Miyamoto told me their attack strategy was too sound."
"The Grandmaster is still alive!?!"
"He was on his last breaths when we spoke."
Maya begins crying
"So everyone is gone?"
"No they live on in us."
"You're right........ Hey wait a second where were you when this happened."
"I just returned from my mission not even an hour ago."
"So what now?"
"You can come with us."
"Huh?"
"The Grandmaster gave me one more mission I must protect Luna with my life and either train her or get Lunaclipseia's power out of her we are going back to her home to figure out our next move. Luna is right would you like to join me on my mission?"
"A mission? But I'm only a second level trainee, I'm no Guardian like you Jin."
"Well we can't just leave you here I can help pass on the training I got shouldn't be too hard it wasn't long ago I was still in training. Than after this mission we will come back here and rebuild. Make the Guardians stronger than they ever were. How bout it?"
"Well that sounds like a lot of work but ok if you're sure."
"I'm sure Maya. It would be an honor to have you join us."
"Thank you."
"You hear that Minou we have company."
"Reow"
"Hey you guys have a cabbit."
"We don't have anything that's just a stray she picked up on the way."
"Aww how can you say that after he saved me."
"Excuse me I saved you."
"Yeah but if it wasn't for him there wouldn't be anything to save anymore."
"Ok fine he proved himself useful... let's get going ok I don't want to be here anymore."
So the crew hit the road to Luna's house with their new ally Maya.
"So Maya what the heck was that you attacked us with?"
"Oh that nothing special just a Ki arrow."
"What's that?"
"Well you see this bow I have well it's a specialty made guardian weapon, its purpose is to draw Ki energy. When holding it I focus my Ki into the bow, then when I draw it back I concentrate on making it an arrow and the bow aids in shaping the Ki and then let her rip."
"Wow that's amazing. Jin can you do that?"
"No... My specialty is close range attacks that's why I have my Kodachi."
"What's a Kodachi?"
"These."
Jin draw his two sword
"See these Kodachi are shorter than your everyday Katana but there much longer than a dagger they are commonly used for defense but I a very effective on offense and defense with them. My Kodachi are also special guardian weapons they can absorb Ki energy and unleash them with my strikes which amplifies its power making it easier to cut through mostly anything. Heck if I put enough energy into them I don't even have to make contact with an opponent to cause damage."
"That's cool so what was that thing you did to the demon that attacked me?"
"Well as I said I like to win close range attacks so I learned to be able to use my Ki energy to enhance my body which makes me stronger faster and more durable also I can focus it in my fist in my feet for devastating attacks like my kinetic punch that you saw last night."
"Kinetic Punch?!?"
"Yes I focus all may Ki to my fists which normally would be too much in one point but with these handy gauntlets I have it absorbs the power and helps me redistribute it when I strike."
"That's pretty cool."
"Yeah I wish I could do that."
"Well it's not like I can do a Ki arrow I'm not a long range fighter."
"Yeah."
The crew continue on their journey till night fall. The crew maks camp for the night.
"Ok ladies seeing what happened to Toji Village and the demon that attacked Luna the other night Maya and I will take 3 hour shifts. Sound good?"
"Sounds good."
