ummm.....

The moonlight pierced through the midnight clouds shedding light onto the darkened meadow. Two shadowy figures appear as the rain drenched clouds separate and open up the night sky. The figures flank each other on the field, positioned as if to engage in a deadly dance. The forest is eerily quiet this night, the moonlight shines on the dew stricken grass as a slight breeze from the east kicks up. Almost as if the breeze were like a starting gun at a track meet the figures move towards one another quickly and with stealth. They move with such grace it seems as if they float across the field toward one another. Suddenly they both draw swords, the charge comes to full speed. They jump in unison at each like a well choreographed ballet. They both come to rest on the field, one stands tall the other hunched over. The hunched figure falls to his. Blood slowly trickles down the blade of the stealthy figure standing in the moonlight, "I've been waiting along time for this Jin..." he says softly. He slowly turns to face the hunched over shadowy figure.
"tell me where she is," his voice quivers. The shadowy figure hunched over looks up with pain and anguish in his eyes, "Damien," Jin coughs out his reply. "you were never man enough and you will NEVER find her..." he let's out a wicked evil laugh and lowers his head in pain. Displeased with this remark Damien raises his sword and with one fail swoop, chops of Jin head. The clouds roll in to envelop the moon. It begins to rain as Damien stays steadfast. "Adelynn...." he mumbles under his breath.


so lemme know what you think so far.

 

Ok, I'll work it in

 

As he stands for a brief moment in the rain, he watches the blood drip from his blade and pool with the rainwater as it disappears into the soil. In the silence he hears something whizz by his head at point blank range. "huh, what the..." he exclaims as one the objects cuts through his clothing slicing his ribs deeply. The sound is too familiar as he almost instantly knows what it is. "throwing knives..."he gasps as he clutches his side. At that very moment he knew Jin, the man he just killed was not alone. He turns quickly to see the rival clan appearing from the tree line. He makes out 10 shadowy figures then quickly and stealthily makes his move for the opposing tree line. The gang of 10 give chase as drift across the open meadow in pursuit of their target.

 

So the name of the story is THE NIGHTSTALKERS. couldnt think of anything at the time, probably shoulda put something better than ummm....

 

Sure danny. You were in it anyway. Just later.

 

As Damien reaches the forest edge he continues a few meters in and looks for a strategic point where he can use the trees to his advantage. The rival shinobi clan catches up to him and encircles him like a pack of hyenas slowly circling their pray. Damien figures he can't run forever, would rather die with honor unlike that snake, Jin. Damien stands at attention and brings his sword up to grasp it with both hands. The bloody blade points skyward as Damien begins to chant under his breath. "father protect me and make my blade swift and accurate," he mutters. The rain slows to a drizzle and there is a break in the clouds as the moonlight shines through. At this moment the rival clan all draw their swords slowly at the same time. Their blades glisten in the moonlight like twinkling stars. Suddenly there is a bustling sound in the tree canopy above. The surrounding 10 glance skyward only to find 9 shadows cast down on their positions. The shadows make quick and silent haste with their kills and catch the tenth pursuant off guard as the cold steel point of a Ninja-to is thrust against his throat. "Rookies..." one of them blurts out. They take the pursuant into their custody, sword still eagerly pressed against his throat. Damien turns as he is not facing these shadowy figures and takes a defensive stance. "whoa, sunshine withdrawal your sword," one of them says as she steps out the darkness and removes her hood. "Sophie?!? How did you? What the....?!?" Damien questions. "I found the battle scroll you know," says another as he steps out and removes his hood. "Charlie?!?" Damien exclaims. "Yeah, you really didn't think we were going to let you have all the fun did you?" Charlie says with a smirk. Damien focuses his attention to the pursuant. He searches his garb for any noticeable marks of any known rival clans and finds none. "Who are you?!?" Damien questions as his voice quivers with anger. "We are the nightstalkers, you cannot stop us and you will NEVER find her.... Damien..... You will feel the wrath of the Eagle!" the captured exclaims letting out a wicked sinister laugh. Before Damien can proceed with his questioning an arrow pierces the captured's throat with precision accuracy. He chokes on his own blood as he gasps for air and die a painful death. Damien spins around and sees a lone shadowy figure standing in the middle of the meadow. The figure appears to be holding what looks like a bow, raises it up and breaks it over his knee but before Damien could identify it; it vanished.

 

The sun breeches the mountain ridge in the distance and shines its warm radiant rays on a small village nestled on a cliff on the opposite side of a large gorge. The eleven friends sit on a moss stained roof on the village's edge and watch the sun find it's way up the wild blue sky. "Eww!!! Deyvis, you were supposed to clean the blood off your sword!! Take care of your stuff, the Wolf is gonna be mad!" Sophie shrieks with grin on her face.
"but I was going too!" deyvis says with disgrace as he lowers his head. The all bust out into laughter at deyvis,"It's not funny..." he says as he tries franticly to wipe the dried blood off. "man, I tell you every time and you never listen to me!" says Charlie as he laughs. Damien cracks a smile and looks off into the distance. "awww I know sweetie, we'll get her back," gabrielle says as he tries to comfort her friend. "Its not just that, Jin was our brother and he feel like a real brother to me, I looked up to him. How could he betray us like that? He betrayed the clan, he betrayed all of us, we're his family.... I don't understand," Damien says as he tries to comprehend the events of the previous night. Gabrielle rubs his back and says, "I don't know, I just don't know..."
"HEY!" the friends stop laughing and look around for the origin of that voice. "I SAID, HEY!!!" Sophie looks down over the eave of the roof and sees a man dressed in dark clothing, clenching a Bo staff in one hand, he shouts, "GET OFF OF THAT ROOF!!" Sophie looks back at her gang and whispers,"oh sh!t, it's sensei Bun!" the rest of them look over. "Sophie, gabriella, Charlie, deyvis, Justin, Bella, Anthony, Natalie, Karen, danzo and don't think I don't see you too Damien, GET OFF THAT ROOF!!"
Bun shouts. " yes sensei!" they answer in unison. They franticly scramble to get off the roof and line up in front of Bun. "now get back to the temple, the wolf is expecting all of you!" Bun exclaims with anger in his voice. " yes sensei!" they all answer in unison. They turn and all of them with sensei bun make the trek to the compound at the other edge of the village, behind the monastery, known as the temple.

 

Yeah, it's cooler than bonnie.
