The Empire/Night Raid
3RD PERSON POV
Tatsumi: Woah I didn't see you last night!
Y/N: We're new. Name's Y/N.
Pyrrha: Pyrrha.
Gojo: *grin* Satoru Gojo~
They all introduced themselves with Todo being the most enthusiastic as the boy chuckles.
Y/N: So you been with them for a day?
Tatsumi: Yup!
Gojo: So what's this empire? What's it like?
His face falls and he turns around outside to see if anyone was listening before speaking in a low tone.
Tatsumi: The emperor is only a child, but it seems as if the whole empire is full of corruption due to the minister who controls the emperor in the shadows. Those who go against him in the slightest are killed. He's.....the reason for the heavy taxes on my village from afar.
Boa: Did you come alone?
Tatsumi: No I had two friends but we lost each other during a bandit attack. *grin* I'm not worried though, they're both tough!
Pyrrha: Why do you come here?
Tatsumi: I want to make a difference! Make money, and make a difference so my village doesn't have to suffer so much.
Y/N: Is there a Revolution going on?
Tatsumi: I don't know.....in all honesty there probably is. But I think they're hiding somewhere waiting to strike at the right time.
Mitsuri: I see.
Todo: DO YOU NEED HELP?!
Aria: YEAH!
Todo enthusiastically helps the two guards lift a massive present in the air as they stop to look in awe at his strength.
Todo: My name is Todo Aoi! Remember that!
Guard: 'He's strong!' Of course!
Later
Tatsumi: So......what are your stories?
Gojo: Hmmm.....well I'll go first. From where I'm from I'm what you call a jujutsu sorcerer?
Tatsumi: *confused* A sorcerer?
Gojo: We use something called cursed energy, a power source deriving from negative emotions. *grin* I'm the strongest user of it in the world.
Tatsumi: *awe* Really?! That means you're strong! What about you?
Everyone introduces themselves as Tatsumi gets to know all of them, surprised at a pirate captain, the strongest sorcerer, two wandering warriors, the most schizophrenic and delusional guy known to mankind, and a demon slayer as he heads outside.
Gojo: He seems like a good kid.
Boa: Is it me or did the little girl look at me.......
Mitsuri: Admiration?
Todo: In awe of your beauty?~.........Or contempt.
Gojo: I saw her grit her teeth whenever looking at Boa. Ah......I met plenty of adults like that, but a psychotic children? *grin* Only seen a few like that and they're from the Zenin clan.
Mitsuri:......Didn't they try to slip something into our drinks?
Y/N: Sleeping medicine.
He held out pills as they all packed everything up including the supplies they "received."
Todo: Let's get out of here then-
A loud scream was heard and Y/N stores his supplies before drawing the soul split katana as he barges into the hallway.
Y/N: THE GIRL'S MOM IS DEAD!
Gojo: Eh? Oh she's cut in half. An assassin perhaps?
Pyrrha: Assassin?
Gojo: Look at the ground. There's no footprints, and it's a rather clean cut. Reminds me of someone......
Boa: So this family was important.
Y/N: Maybe.
Mitsuri: W-Where's Tatsumi?! I don't think he can handle assassins by himself!
*SHATTER*
Y/N shatters the window and proceeds to zoom across the forest, making his way to the shed at breakneck speeds.
Y/N: TATSUMI!
Tatsumi: Y/N!
???: You're not a target.
*CLANG*
She charges at Tatsumi only for her eyes to widen as Y/N appears in front of her and she blocks his blow that forced her to skid back a few dozen meters.
Y/N: *wary* Who are you?!
???: My name is none of your concern.....
Tatsumi: WAIT I SAW THE NIGHT RAID POSTER! THAT'S AKAME!
Y/N: Akame huh?
Akame: The girl must die. You don't have to.
Y/N: You tried to kill my buddy here. He's not dying on my watch!
Akame: You leave me no choice.
SHOW THAT YOU'RE NOT TO BE MESSED WITH
REWARD:
$850000
SENZU BEAN
*CLANG*
Y/N: 'HOLY SHIT SHE'S FAST AND STRONG!'
He was on the defensive, assessing the assassin's movements and motion as he scrambled to defend himself though Akame was obviously surprised at how he was keeping up with him.
Y/N: 'DISMANTLE!'
*SLICE*
Akame was caught off guard by the fast strikes, several cuts appearing on her body as she backs away from the land in front of her that was sliced into Swiss cheese.
Y/N: *grin* Surprised eh? I actually use two swords.
Akame: I cut you.
Y/N looks down, seeing a cut on his lower leg as a black mark spreads up-
Y/N: Poison?
He concentrates on the RCT, and within 5 seconds the poison recedes and disappears as he sighs.
Y/N: Look I had my suspicions of these people but we're strangers to the empire and whatever's going on. I have a feeling they're corrupt.
Akame: Then you should have an idea why we're targeting these people.
Y/N: Why are you targeting these people then? Have they.....done something wrong?
Akame: Yes they have.
Aria: SHE'S LYING! DON'T LISTEN TO HE-
Y/N: Stop.
Y/N coldly shuts her up as the rest of his group and the other assassins show up.
Tatsumi: Wha- HEY YOU'RE THE GIRL WITH THE BOOBS!
Leone: Hehe. Hi!~
Tatsumi grinds her teeth and everyone knows who was responsible for Tatsumi losing all his money as Y/N turns to him.
Y/N: Step aside. I smell something in the shed.
*BOOM*
Y/N kicks the shed open and everyone was welcome to a horrific scene of mutilated bodies and such.
Mitsuri: S-Such an unsightly sight!
Todo: So they're all damn crazy.
Pyrrha: I had a suspicion. I didn't think it was like this.
Tatsumi: S-Sayu?
He stares at the corpse of his best friend only to see his other friend behind a jail like cell.
Tatsumi: I-Ieyasu?
Ieyasu: T-That little girl.......
He explains through a pained voice at how Aria lured them into a false sense of security and knocked them out before torturing the two of them to death.
Tatsumi: She.....killed her.
Aria: FINE FINE! IF-
*GRAB*
Gojo: Blah blah blah blah- just shut up kid.
He grips her jaw, shutting her up as she struggles in his grip.
Boa: Wait. Let me do this myself-
Tatsumi: No.
She was confused when Tatsumi suddenly slices Aria in half horizontally, her blood and guts spilling all over the ground as Y/N opens the gates and helps Tatsumi's dying friend.
Y/N: I can heal you.
Ieyasu: No......don't.
He coughs up blood as he smiles.
Ieyasu: It's already too late for me. But.....*smile* Thanks for helping him out.
Y/N: They tried to sneak in a sleeping agent of sorts into our drinks.
Ieyasu: Just like me.
Tatsumi: IEYASU!
Y/N lets them reunite as he turns to see his group having a solemn expression on their faces.....
Leone: Woah he really did match you! Do you have a Teigu?
Y/N: Like I said, I'm a stranger to the empire No this is not a Teigu. It's a weapon of mine. And what's a Teigu?
Leone: 'So he doesn't know?'
Todo: Is it a weapon of sorts?
Leone: Yup!
Akame: Let's go.
Leone: Wait....don't you think we should bring everyone along? We could use an extra pair of hands.
Tatsumi: AH WAIT! LET ME BURY MY HANDS!
He protests as Leone drags him along and Akame turns to Y/N with a blank expression.
Akame: How fast are you?
Y/N: Fast enough to keep up-
She flashes and Y/N follows her around, blitzing the place several times as they reappear.
Akame: Good enough. Follow us.
Todo: Gojo Sensei?
Gojo: *grin* You're the boss this time.
Y/N gestures and they all jump after the fleeing assassins who were surprised to see the newcomers catching up quickly with Todo using his enhanced speed from the mindscape training and Mitsuri riding on Y/N's back after some time.
