Chapter: 1
A lone man walks on a deserted road heading towards the empire's capital. He has a lean build but, with every step you can tell he has a deadly grace and nobility. The man is wearing a black with red trim long coat that hugs his body perfectly. Under the coat he is wearing a plain white muscle shirt and dark blue traveling pants and hidden from sight on his right thigh a empty black/silver pommel of a sword.. He is also wearing black combat gloves with a silver plate attached to the back of his hand, a pair of black and sliver combat boots and finally a silver with emerald green trim scarf covering the lower half of his face while the hood of his coat hides the rest. Hidden in his right coat sleeve is a dagger.
The guy stretches his arms in to the air for brief second then lowers one of them to cover his mouth as he yawns loudly.
"Hm, well that was really boring, kinda hoped for more of a challenge from those bandits."
The young man soon perks up at the loud roar a little in the distance and soon starts running at full speed while constantly chanting in a loud voice .
"Mine, mine, mine."
Two traveling merchants look in fear as the first class risk species, earth dragon stares down at them hungrily. The two close their eyes and pray for it to be over quickly and painlessly; soon after they close their eyes they hear a voice in the distance getting closer by the second, one of them peeks out of one eye to see while the other only hears as the sound of flesh and bone being severed brutally. The other merchant slowly opens his eyes and they both see someone standing between the two severed half's of the danger beast.
The warrior then clicks his tongue in annoyance.
"Not even a warm up..how boring."
The strange fighter then walks right pass the other two people on the road without even acknowledging them.
One of the merchants soon shakes off the shock and then asks who he cant help but think sounds like a teenager, even if his voice is muffled by the scarf nervously.
"Oi, kid who are you?"
The man turns his head and says in a muffled voice.
"The name is Tatsumi."
Then with out another word Tatsumi continues foreword passed the two merchants ignoring their rapid fire questions.
A few hours later Tatsumi enter the capital city of the empire in search of some food. As he walks around he thinks to him self.
'now how should I play this, should I go and join the military or try my luck and hunt down the rumored night raid assassins.'
As Tatsumi ponders this while just entering a local tavern and sitting down a blonde girl sits in front of and gives a flirtatious smile and asks cheerfully.
"Hey, I haven't seen around before. Are you new to the city?"
Tatsumi raises his head and silently stares at the girl in front of him. He then shrugs and replies casually.
"Ya is it that easy to tell."
the blonde shakes her head 'no' and then grins mischievously before she answers back.
"Not really you just smell kinda like the country is all."
Tatsumi raises a hidden brow and nods but doesn't say thing to that comment. He then notices the girl staring at his money pouch and decides to skip lunch and begins to stand the girl stops him by asking.
"So mystery guy, you going to tell me you name?"
Tatsumi smiles under his scarf and responds.
"Common curtisy dictates you should introduce your self first."
Before she can even form response Tatsumi quickly walks out of the tavern and disappears in to the crowds.
As Tatsumi continues to walk around the city hands in his coat pockets a carriage pulls up in front of him . A young girl hops out and looks up at Tatsumi and smiles warmly.
"hello, my name is Airia, what's yours?"
Tatsumi looks down at the girl in confusion before replying.
"It's Tatsumi nice to meet you Airia-san."
Airia nods at him then tilts her head cutely and asks.
"Are you lost Tatsumi-kun."
Tatsumi shrugs then scratches his cheek.
"Not really, I'm just looking for an inn to stay at for the night and maybe some food."
Airia grins and claps her hands in excitement.
"Oh, well I think I can help you with you problem. How about you come stay the night at my families mansion I'm sure mama and papa would be ok with it"
Tatsumi simply nods his head in confusion but follows Airia in to the carriage. He then sits in front of the kind girl a smirk plays on his lips as he thinks.
'This might be interesting. Wonder why she is offering me a place to sleep, cause I doubt it very much that it is from the kindness of he heart.'
Tatsumi then looks up from his musings and asks the girl.
"Airia-san why are you offering to help me. I mean you don't even know me."
Airia giggles in to her hand then says sweetly and with some traces of mirth.
"Well Tatsumi-kun because it's the right thing to do."
Tatsumi rubs the back of his head in embarrassment.
"I see well then thank you very much, I really appreciate your kindness."
Once they reach the mansion Airia introduces Tatsumi to her parents. Who then ask him several questions about why he came to the capital and if he had come here alone or if he came with other people. After Tatsumi answered everything they asked the family showed Tatsumi to a guest room that he could use for the night . Which Tatsumi bowed and thanked them for; the family had waved off his thanks as no trouble at all and left Tatsumi to clean up.
After Tatsumi closed the door and locks it he went over to the bed and started to undress . A few small scars become visible on his chest and back his brown hair hangs loosely while spiking slightly down to just above his shoulders while a bang slightly covers his left eye in a sort of fang look.
He also has a black and purple lotus flower tattoo on the upper middle of his back. Around his neck a silver chain with a ruby rose in front of a Obsidian iron cross pendent, that he had received in what felt like a different life time from a strange blue eyed, blue haired girl who had called him, her future mate. Tatsumi smiles at the memories as he then walks in to the shower.
Awhile later after he had showered Tatsumi lays down in the soft bed and falls asleep almost instantly.
Later that evening in the middle of the night Tatsumi is awoken by a bunch of screams from outside and inside the house. So as quickly and silently as possible he gets dressed making sure his pendent is safely tucked in his shirt. He then heads out of the room and scans everything around him, he notices a group of four outside a window standing on what looks like wire and he internally smirks while thinking.
"So those must be the infamous and rumored night raid... how interesting ."
Tatsumi then starts running passed all the dead bodies that where left strewn in the mansion till he is outside and see Airia running into a shed a little ways away from the mansion. so quietly follows her and enters the shed what he sees causes his eyes to widen in shock and turns at the sound of the door slamming closed and is very surprised to see Tatsumi, but before she can say anything Tatsumi grabs her by the throat and growls out.
"What the fuck did you sick twist creatures do too these poor innocent people?"
Even with the lack of oxygen Airia still grins insane and cackles before replying
"Innocent people? Please they are no better then cattle waiting for slaughter and that's what we did. I mean who would miss a bunch of country bumpkins."
Tatsumi's eyes harden even more at her comment as a whisper on the wind breath in to his ear to use him, but Tatsumi ignores it and slides out his dagger from his sleeve before very slowly he pierces it through the insane girls chest till the tip reaches her heart. He then moves the blade angle up doing minimal damage to the outside but cutting open the girls pain must have been excruciating as her strangled screams where loud enough to wake the dead and was eternally etched in to her face as she died .
Tatsumi lets the body drop from his grip as he looks at it coldly before leaving it to rot with the rest of the 'cattle'. He silently prays for this thing and her ilk to burn for eternally while being tortured by all those she had tortured.
Once Tatsumi exits the shed he ends up standing almost face to face with another familiar person. The unforgettable long black hair and red eyes of Akame.
The girl stares at him with out a hint of emotion and then tonelessly says.
"Eliminate"
Tatsumi's eyes widen a fraction at the sound of her voice but still manages to block her blade with the point of his dagger, he then kicks her in the stomach sending the scary and dangerous girl skidding back and giving himself a bit of breathing room.
He quickly looks at his surrounding from the corners of his eyes and not seeing any of the girls comrade falls in to a basic sword stance. Neither says anything then a split second later they both disappear and just as quickly reappear in a sword lock as sparks flash from both blades. Tatsumi then reaches out and grabs the girl then throw her over his shoulder.
The girl almost instantly gets her bearing back after she is thrown and turns her body to slash at his exposed back but much to her shock he turns on his heel and blocks her attack once again with just the tip. She then jumps back to get some space between them and to come up with a different plan.
Tatsumi rotates his shoulder to regain some feeling in to it because that last attack was no joke.
'Bloody hell she has diffidently gotten a hell of a lot stronger since my exile ten years ago *sigh* I miss that energetic and happy girl.'
Tatsumi had then caught a slight amount of movement on his right side and then sighs out loud before muttering.
"Damn, looks like this spars is over and here it was just starting to get fun."
Akame looks at him curiously and wonders why he dropped his guard but before she can attack and kill him A tall armored guy appears in front of her and bops her on the head lightly, causing the girl to blink then tilt her head as she looks to be holding back tears while holding where the armored guy tapped her.
"Akame look the kid surrendered so no need to go all emotionless killer on the poor guy any more."
Tatsumi watches this scene play out and gains a small tic mark and internally rages.
"That asshole hasn't bloody changed a bit he still so bloody laid back. Wonder if the blockhead has finally come out of the closet yet."
Tatsumi then feels an arm wrap around his neck and feel extra weight leaning on his right side. He looks to his side and sees the blonde girl from earlier that day, she looks him in the eye and grin before saying.
"Ya Akame calm down he's kinda harmless I met this mystery cutie earlier today. by the way I'm Leone."
Akame glares at the unknown but sheathes her katana regardless. soon afterwards a green haired youth runs towards the small group followed by a purple haired women with glasses. she then smiles kindly at Tatsumi while the guy with green hair glares at him suspiciously.
Before Tatsumi can react to the glare the armored suited guy knocks him unconscious, but just before everything goes black he hear the armored guy shouts out.
"Alright people lets head back to base the boss is going to want to hear about all this."
Tatsumi's last thoughts then just before he passes out are.
'I'm going to punch that closet homo in the face when I wake up.'
Alright that the first chapter hope it was interesting so comment let me know now to answer one reviewers question no Tatsumi isn't going to be cold he will actually be pretty warm and kind hearted but he does love a good fight and it can make him lose himself in it but also you have to remember he was betrayed by his kingdom, his father was killed and his little brother is being used as a puppet by the guy who tried to kill him so when it comes to watching his empire drown itself in corruption and people using his brother's innocence to fuck it up more he will be very vengeful.
