[Setting: Water Valley Village, Sol City, 19:00 o'clock]
Gimori stands in the midst of the destroyed village, while smirking and staring down the current strongest member of the PSSO (professional sword saint organization), Evander Ryunosuke. Evander unsheathes his Flame Blade and engages in a standoff with Gimori. Gimori stares at him, his Aku no eye (the almighty eye of Gimori that has the word Aku no engraved in it. He can use it infinitely. It is the Legendary Eye of the Demon blade, Legendary eyes are insanely powerful ocular abilities that are unlocked by a legendary blade user once they've unlocked all of their legendary arts) glowing as blue as ever.
Gimori: (smirking) Ah, Evander... I've been looking around for you, you know.
Evander: (visibly shaken) Gimori... How are you here? I thought I sealed you away 30 years ago.
Gimori: Oh you did, under a flipping mountain... But i gained the motivation to murder you, so I destroyed the mountain using my Aku no eye, found my demon blade and now I'm ready for round 2, you mutt.
Evander: No, I can't, I have a family now Gimori and I'm old. My Ascension mark's practically deteriorated... I can't.
Gimori: Even better, I'll make sure to make a good example out of you. No one leaves the cultists of Gimori, fights me, the leader of the cultists as well as the emperor of the Hollowlands, seals me under a mountain, becomes the emperor of Sol and lives to tell the tale.
Evander: If you want my head, take it but leave those that are involved out of this.
Gimori: Don't worry traitor! I'll give them a good look at your corpse when I'm done with you, and I'll probably violate and enslave that slutty wife of yours.
Evander: ...
Gimori: I've never wanted to skin someone alive so badly in all three centuries of my life.
Evander: Just kill me already, I won't fight you.
Gimori: No fun, I mean what happened to your sense of warrior pride... I literally murdered all of your neighbours, burned your village to the ground, threatened to violate you wife and threatened to traumatize your kids, yet you still refuse to go blade for blade with me. Pathetic if you ask me.
Gimori unsheathes his Demon Blade and Demon steps to Levine (Evander's youngest son) and slashes his torso in half, he then raises his blade for another strike but it's quickly intercepted by Evander with his Flame blade.
Evander: Katherine (Evander's wife) get Xzaivier out of here!
Evander pushes Gimori away from his house.
Evander: (Angry) A 10 year old, really? You crossed a brand new line Gimori!
Gimori: It wouldn't have happened if you'd simply agreed to fight me the first time. Oh and I'm going after that boy once I'm done here.
Evander: I guess I'm just going to have to return to my old Emperor days. This time I won't seal you away...
Evander scowls before putting on his signature red headband (Every nation's Emperor has a headband in whatever colour they choose and royal robes in the colors that the emperor chooses. Evander's out is a A long, flowing black warrior tunic. The fabric appears to drape elegantly. He also wears a long, vibrant red cape is draped over his shoulders and flows down his back, providing a striking contrast to the black garment).
Evander: Because you'll just come back again, this time...
Evander's eyes flare with that same flame they did 30 years ago during their duel.
Evander: This time I'll kill you!
[At the Great Valley of Sol ]
Katherine was evacuating Xzaivier, her and Evander's oldest son, while Evander was holding off Gimori (Evander's losing badly). he's currently 12 years old.
Katherine: Xzaivier, I know it's not much... but take my shadow blade (The weakest of the top 11 legendary blades). Use it strictly to defend yourself from danger. I love you.
Katherine then draws the Kanji for barrier on Xzaivier's forehead.
Katherine: If you get into a big fight use this Kanji to form a barrier around yourself. Please Xzaivier stay alive.
Katherine places a kiss on Xzaivier's forehead before hurrying him into a dinghy and sending him down the river. Right before going down the valley, Xzaivier witnesses Gimori assault and kidnap Katherine.
Xzaivier: (shocked) m-mom...
Gimori looks at Xzaivier and smirks before walking away.
Xzaivier then notices something deep in the fires that have consumed Waterway village, he notices the flame blade, wedged into the corpse of his father.
This is when something sparked in his heart, hate, anger, wrath.... He wanted retribution, he wanted it BADLY.
Xzaivier: You monster! I'll murder you one day, AND IT'S GONNA BE PAINFUL! I promise you that Gimori Aku no!!!!!
[Months later]
Xzaivier had been surviving in the wild on fruits and the meat of whatever small animals he could fight. Since he had no idea how to cook he'd been eating the meat raw. He'd also been sleeping in a cave for the last 7 months. He often watches clouds move around as entertainment. He also hasn't showered or changed clothes for the last 7 months.
One day Xzaivier was sitting in his cave, reciting Gimori's name angrily while clutching his sheathed shadow blade.
Xzaivier: Gimori.... Gimori.... Gimori... GIMORI!
A figure approaches, curious about the the shout they'd just heard. It was another 12 year old boy with purple eyes, dark brown skin, and a short, purple Mohawk. He wore the sword saint academy (a popular academy that trains sword saints until they're 16, when they are 16 years of age, they join the professional sword saint ranks, beginning at F-rank) uniform which consists of a sleeveless Haori in the colours that the sword saint chooses (the stranger's was purple) with a black shitagi, black hakama pants, Jika Tabi boots in a colour that the sword saint chooses, along with their blade which is sheathed at their left side.
???: What's this? A kid in a cave. Well that simply not natural.
Xzaivier unsheathes his shadow blade, distrusting of the stranger.
???: Hey Sensei Gara, you'll never believe what I just found...
Sensei Gara: What'd you find Yagumi?
Yagumi: there's a kid In this cave, not to be rude but he looks homeless.
Sensei Gara: Let me have a look.
Sensei Gara peeks into the cave and sees Xzaivier who's in a battle stance.
Sensei Gara: the shadow blade? What's he doing with that?
Sensei Gara approaches but Xzaivier growls.
Sensei Gara: it's alright buddy I'm friendly.
Xzaivier charges and attempts to slash Sensei Gara with his shadow blade, that's flaring violently with darkness.
Xzaivier: HAAAAAA!
Before the blade can come down on Sensei Gara's head, Yagumi intercepts with his Grim Reaper Blades.
Yagumi: What's your deal?!
Yagumi kicks Xzaivier away.
Sensei Gara: Nice interception Yagumi but I had that one.
Yagumi: Hehehe, sure. Probably one of Gimori's rogue swordsmen, Lemme fight this one Sensei.
Xzaivier: Gimori?! I am not that monster's helper!!!!
Sensei Gara: sure, don't kill him though.
Yagumi: much appreciated Sensei.
Yagumi switches his grip to reverse grip on both blades as his Grim reaper blades flare with purple and deadly energy. Xzaivier's Shadow blade is flaring violently with darkness.
Xzaivier:(angrily) GRRRRRR!
Yagumi: Get ready you beast.
Both charge at eachother, jump and Clash...
CLANG!!
