Tale of Storys.

[Ichirin]

*Ichirin, doesn't ware any armour, just his black cloak. He's to cool to wear anything heavy and something that doesn't match his blindfold *

Myzuri pulled me aside, and said 'hi'. This was weird, nobody has ever done this before, i actually feel weakened, I don't know what i am feeling. I feels like somebody has just carved a flaming sword trough my belly. Though i liked the feeling.

I answered her question also with a "Hi", then i pulled my arms behind my head, being a bit embarressed.

Right after i answered her, i felt worried about Nozomi and Tatsu, what were they up to ? I haven't seem them for a while, though I am in the middle of a forest.

[Kanji_The_Wanderer]

****Tatsu doesn't wear armor either. It slows him down to much, and he needs to be agile to fight dragons. He has tried it before, instead of the armour, I grab an Elvish dagger. I'm sure Nozomi will wear the armor, and maybe Swift...****

I wonder what is taking Ichirin so long, he was back there with that girl, Myzura. I kind of don't trust her. She hasn't talked to me much. She could be planning something. How could she have known about that armory? Thauksulian's aren't accustomed to war. That is why they live deep in a forest, away from people. I quicken my pace and come right up side Nozomi. The shadows from the woods are starting to lower out vision. I can still smell burnt wood from the fight before.

Nozomi and I push forward into the forest. The sun is starting to set, and the moon is already rising. Swift is close to us. I ask Nozomi if she can feel the dragons. I wanted to know how close they are.

When we leave Thauk Sul forest there will be a plains area. There are some decent boulders to wait next to and prepare an ambush. And I have some great moves planned out...

[Ichirin]

I could hear Tatsu and Nozomi leave the tree-armoury, i was wondering what they were going to do. I was intrested.

But then the blindfold covering up my blind eyes was pulled off, it was being pulled of by Myzuri. She drops the blindfold onto the ground, my red eyes were sparkling. I touched her face with my right hand, going trough her hair. I slowly come closer to her, grabbing her hand with my left hand. Our faces were right across each other. I could feel her beauty, actually see it, picturing her textures inside my mind, her beautiful smile. My right hand slowly fell from the ends of her hair onto her back. This was a feeling that i knew, not like that before. I've felt it when i was with my parents, back when they were still alive.

"Could this be love?" i asked myself.

**sorry I don't like heavy armor ether, But I think I'll take something light**

***very very nice. I was worried i'd have to try and make the first move, oh, but it is so done for me...lol...Thanks much!***

Ichirin was very close to me now. What was this? What was he doing? I didn't ponder on it too long, because I was afraid that if I did, this feeling would go away. I didn't want it to, anything but that. At this very moment, everything I knew disappeared. Every problem, every fear, every doubt. And though I wasn't sure if that was a good thing, I still let myself be surrounded by it. Consumed by every little bit.

I brought my hand up and held the side of his face. I found it so amazing that he could see me without seeing me. I slowly guided his face closer to mine, our breathing starting to become quick and heavy with excitement. Finally, the shock ran through us both as our lips finally touched. I closed my eyes and felt the room around me fade into darkness. I felt so complete. A feeling I hadn't felt in such a long time. Ichirin completed me without even knowing it. I didn't want to leave him, I didn't want to feel incomplete again. Being with him, kissing him, made everything so much better. I found myself wanting him, needing him to survive. He pulled back a bit and we broke apart. Our breath mingled for a short while.

"Why...Why did you stop...?" I asked hesitantly. In a way, I felt stupid, but I had to ask.

"Did you not want me to?" he said casually. A little smirk spread across his face. I kind of wanted to hit him for teasing me like this, but I didn't.

"No, why would I want that?" I said. His smirk grew to a smile and he leaned back in. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer to me. The spark came back as soon as our lips touched again. I felt the want in his kiss, as he probably did in mine. I continued to pull him close to me. And though our bodies were touching, he wasn't close enough. Eventually, I was backed into a wall. There was no possible way he could get any closer, so instead, I held onto him, so he wouldn't leave unless I let him. And I wasn't going to let him any time soon.

I don't know what this needing was, what this feeling was. Nobody told me a human could feel this way. Why didn't anyone tell me about this feeling? What was it? Was it love? that was my only question...Was this love? And was he feeling the same way...?



***Oh, so hot, go me! LOL! (and just because of the mood... ...A HEART! lol...)***

[CoolNard]

**Swiftant doesn't really need armor either, he's got enough ninja plating on him alrdy lol. And nice job on the hot moments there musashi!**

After fussy moments of choosing, picking and quarrelling over who gets to wear which armor, we exit from the from the tree of armory and start towards the forest. I follow suit, behind Tatsu and Nozomi. Myzura had pulled Ichirin into a corner, awhile back. Although I don't know why, and i cannot understand.. Half of me feels dejected. Watching Myzura behave like that aggravates and torments my heart, filling it with envy and anger for Ichirin. It feels like i missed the train to potential happiness.. It's picking up speed but i dismiss the impossible and continue to chase it. Alas! I run into a pole and knock myself to the ground.. Not bothering to get up, I watch on as the train leaves the station to paradise.. without me.. Is this what jealousy feels like? I don't want it nor do i need it.. but i can't help it..

The other half of me however, is more worried about the upcoming arrival of the dragon army.

Thinking: Did I make the right choice in joining them? Will this battle determine that? What if i was wrong? What if the casualties of the upcoming battle set the path of freedom for Akuma? The prospect of risking the Akuma's ressurection for the price of beating Shakura is heavy.. No.. i won't let either of the SilverDragons triumph over us.. After all that's happened.. We're wholly responsible for the fate of this universe. I just cannot afford to lose...

The assortment of emotions stirring inside of me in one sitting makes my stomach lurch. I don't know if i'll have enough power to overcome the wrath of the dragon army in this state. As day gives way to night, we pick up speed, sprinting with our arms behind our backs(naruto style! XD). Tatsu breaks the silence by asking Nozomi if she can sense the location of the dragons. Knowing Tatsu, he probably wants to ambush them or something. I offer my skills of understanding dragon language and knowledge of where they're coming from to them. Upon reaching an open area, we immediately take cover behind some huge moss-growing boulders. Instinctively, with a swish of my cloak, i blend in with my surroundings. The others look surprised, but understanding shows on their faces when I explain it to them.

All of a sudden, the gentle breeze beings to blow up, turning into a great, howling wind. I can feel and hear alot of air pressure above our heads.

"Where are they? Her Graciousness said they'd be here..!", a low and indignant growl can be heard over the rustling of the wind through the trees. They have arrived. The time for a face-off is now! As the moon rears her ever-shimmering head in the dark sky, my eyes scorch red and a smile reluctantly crevasses my lips. I slowly get my bow and arrows at the ready. The seed of war has once more, blossomed!

**In the next episode: Exactly how many dragons does the DragonArmy consist of? Who will stand at the top of the ladder of victory? Will it be Tatsu~the lovesick and ever-resourceful elven-magic and sword-user, Nozomi~the perky and energetic ninja who possesses a dark alter-personality, Swiftant~the self-arrogant assassin yet, powerful and well-equiped enough to back his words up, Myzura~the still mysterious, romantic and beautiful female warrior OR will it be Ichirin~the almost-equally mysterious blind child mankiller? Who WILL reign victorious over the other? Will Swiftant meet another dragon he knows whilst battling the DragonArmy? Will Ichirin and Myzura eventually become an item and break Swiftant's heart? Will Tatsu's plan of ambushing the dragons work out? WiLL Nozomi be able to contain the ex-SilverDragon??!! Find OUT all, in the next episode of DragonBusters!!! (i cant think of a btr name, LOL)**

[Kuroneko]

***I'm just going to go back in time just a bit.***

What the hell where they doing in there I though to myself, looking back in to the tree. "Oh, if that Ichi is doing anything perverted to that sweet, innocent girl, I'm going to kick his sorry ass so hard hell kiss the moon." I say to myself. I pause and think back. "The moon." I say. So I knew Ichi and Tatsu before... "HUH? Then why doesn't Tatsu remember me?" i think to myself. "Ichi i can understand being that he was so young, but why not Tatsu?... Are this really my memory's? I want to ask him, every thing about me but..." I think back to the dream I had, "I... Love... Tatsu?" I thought full of doubt. Finally the two come out from the tree, "Well where have you been?", their silent, both of their faces a bit red. "Ohhh what do we have here???" I ask to stop myself form thinking about Tatsu. "Ichi you got some explaining to do." I say in a bit of a sly tone.

"Whats there to explain. Idiot." Tatsu replies,

"You Rude Little shit." I retort,

"Enough the DragonArmy will be here soon we must get moving!!" Swiftant shout's over us arguing .

"Fine lets go shall we." I say "but where are we going to go" every one is looking at me "phaa I don't know like I said I cant just pick out any dragon I need to be at least a mile away to sense them." I look at Swiftant "You where the one that perked my senses when you got here, Um try like talking to them or some thing."

"Unfortunately its not as easy as that, it was Shakura who made the connection to my mind." he said.

"Well then I guess we just head to the dragon's mountains, we'll run in to them soon enough" Tatsu says

"Well lets go!!" I say "but can we eat before we go?" Tatsu and Ichi, they always complain about my eating I look for an excuse. "Um oh Myzuri ah she has a hungry look on her face,um the kind you get from not eating for a while. hehehe." I saying this I put my hand behind my head.

*** I dont know if just one of us is going to kill the dragon but I was thinking that all of us did it together. ^_^ ***

[CoolNard]

**It's the DragonArmy, so i think there shld b like, mor dragons. How about each of us take one? that shld make 5 of them as well. Oh i *can* still talk to them. Only thing is not being able to telepathically connect to them, yea..**

[Kanji_The_Wanderer]

***Yea I agree with CoolNard, there should be at least 25 dragons. 5 for the each of us.

This is why it will be our hardest battle so far. But it will prepare us so when we finally do reach the Dragon's Lair all the way on the other side of the world. Oh by the way, Cool I realy liked how you made up that next episode thing. ^___^

I got to step out for a few, i'll be back to do my post, I am going to start the battle, I am going to use some Elvish Magic on everyone. Wait and see. ***

[Ichirin]

*The dragon army is more going to be like 100000 dragons, we don't have to defeat them. We need to unify the broken cities of Etrirea, they'll aid us. But while they'll be fighting we go for the head dragon. But first we actually need to unify them. Just think of battle such in LOTR (lord of the rings) trilogy.*

"There'll be too many of them for us to take them on, even if they emperial army of Asgard is behind us, they won't even be a challenge for that large number of dragons." i said to them. "The best thing to do is to get the broken cities who untill now, compeated each other, to get them unified, with that army the dragon army will have a challenge, and by that battle the future of Etrirea is going to be sealed." I proceeded.

The faces of all my companions turned into a blur, the had no idea there was such a huge number of dragons in the army. But now they know their numbers they were even more motivated, but I didn't say about these dragons, these military dragons. They were much stronger then the other dragons, having thicker armor and better weapons, they were our ultimate enemy. But we weren't meant to be fighting them, we'll go for the main target, The silver dragon (can't remember his name). But all these thing i didn't tell them, i didn't want to break their morale. They'll see with what they have to compeet once they'll have to fight it in person.

"I suggest we go to all neighboring cities to let them know about the peace-treaty in order to unify forces." i said to them, standing on a tree stump.

"Therefor i suggest we'll travel in pairs, to be able to defend ourselves a bit when we run into the army". i answered their hopeless faces.

I got of the stump, walking to Myzuri to comfort her. When I arrived her i hugged her tightly, at first she didn't hugged me back...she was startled by what i just said...but after a while she started hugging me back.
