Warriors of the Shadows

Since the Shadow entity appeared, the status quo on the world became like little pieces of sh*t, wrecked, shattered, Most of the world became the on zones called "Shadow's Tundra", what is worst is that most of the past civilization foresighted this event, when that shadow was defeated, the humankind started a recuperation process, the "recuperation era" as we call it, but suddenly, Japan became a hungry empire, invading every part of the most powerful countries, with the newly formed squad of warriors, they were clearly ninjas, but they called them the "warriors of the shadows", they were terrifying powerful, to put on example, one single of them can defeat the full experienced formation of a country's army, within them, some legendary warriors were born. When Japan became an empire, the emperor, who until that moment was just a symbolic figure of japan, he became the absolute leader, Yen became the supreme currency and the culture expanded as a f*cking plague, the countries became "extravagant prefectures".

When the world became the entire territory of the new japan empire, it slowly became calmer, but some foresighters predicted the new coming of the shadow, no one believed them, and I myself, are included.

I will present myself.

My name is Kishio-to, I was raised by a powerful nun of the shadows on a "forbidden orphanage", as you can read I am an orphan.

The nun's name was Junsuina Hikari, she was beautiful and was a very powerful veteran on the using of the Shadow's power.

On the new earth, are very few that awoke a shadow's power, the forbidden orphanages are builded to raise those "awoken", but those things are illegal, thus, the japan empire became very angered, burning and destroying every single of these buildings. Mine wasn't an exception, I still remember that sorrowful day, the massacre day, called by some, the Awakening day, called by others, the Starting of the doomsday, called by some crazy ones, but do you want to know how I called it? The Cry Day, I was in love with my life then, and I was very fond of Jun-jun, the nun, who teached me most of the martial arts I know, she was profaned by the most horrible manners I can ever imagine, not only she, but everything on the orphanage became like hell, while me?, I was hiding, seeing all this tragedy, my little heart became crushed into little shards, and then I first communicated with it.

The Shadow.

That thing that changed the status quo into a weird modern version of the middle age of the humankind, it was the shadow, It talked to me, its voice… it can be a woman, it can be a man, it can be a demon, but you cannot identify this entity, I remember it clearly.

The shadow called while I was watching everything being violated and profaned, and she being… profaned, I was hiding with my tears and mocus covering my entire face, when I heard it, I became very shocked.

"Hello, little chosen", its voice, at first was warm, but then it was fearful, I almost peed myself in that moment, then its next words started the little spark of a big fire, "do you want power?", what started the spark was not the desire of power, but the desire of save the nun, I morphed those simple words into a proposition of big opportunities, I made what most of the people name "selling the one's soul to the devil", in that moment a rage I never felt bursted out from my chest and I became the second arriving of the feared shadow.

When I awoke I had the nun on my arms, she was seeing with a complex face, she was weak and with her intelligence she realized a lot of things in a mere instant, I was a fifteen year old child, so she just left me the next words: "Do not let it to destroy yourself, and live peacefully with yourself", she kissed me and then died with a smile on her face. I didn't knew very well the reasons behind that kiss on that moment, I just cried until I became mute of the pain.

Then I buried the entire place with a lot of effort and left the place.

I became a wanderer and in some moment a couple took pity of me and started to raise me. When I regained the speaking I knew part of the reasons of the nun to kiss me, she gave me her powers, and she gave me her love, which kind of love? I don't know and I don't want to know it.

I just grew up, discovering more and more of myself, my surroundings, and the shadow, I just knew that I had an enemy: Japan's emperor, I determined myself to kill him, so I entered Japan's milltia. My rank passed through Shadow Novice, Shadows Veteran, Shadows Lord, and Shadows King and then I arrived True Novice of Shadows, or how everyone knows: Shadows Emperor, I was discovered and then I deserted. My plans became shattered and with it, my previous life.

I calmed myself and started a peaceful life on the downgraded Mexico's country, the Tacos Prefecture (sorry, xD), I lived on it until The great catastrophe occurred. From four seasons, it became the eight Seasons era, for now, ninjas are searching myself, I am living using this shadow as my benefices, it made know everything of the universe, although it says that this knowing is probably a little part of the knowing, the shadow told me that before arriving this earth, it was part of some kind of big master god, it lived enclosed until it escaped with other stuff I didn't understood, it arrived here where he vented its anger. The shadow became enclosed by the emperor and it became the fuel of those shadow warriors. The shadow told me that it want to recover a physic form and travel the universe.

I will wait a little more before crush by myself my peaceful life, should I aim first the general or aim for the subordinates?, hmm I should aim my strength, for now this is my path, and my oath for my heart's desire.

(To be continue…?)
