The Serpent Awakes
Kazama Goda, foreman of the construction crew, oversaw the removal of the debris left in the wake of the dragon attack. All the damn monsters..he was seriously considering moving. Maybe to South Korea, he had family there on his uncle's side,

"Goda-san, you've got to see this!"

"What is it?" Goda asked, annoyed.

"I don't know, I think it's a dinosaur fossil!"

Officially intrigued, Kazuma went over to where it looked like a partially unburied, reptilian skull.

"Kami," he gasped, moving toward it.The attack must have uncovered it. It was magnificient, he thought, mesmerized and moving toward it.

"Goda-san?" one of the workers called.

He didn't hear it. He reached out and touched the skull..and Kazuma Goda vanished in a wave of primal power. A burst of energy enveloped the body, practically exploding with raw energy. It mutated and shifted, scales forming and muscles shifting as the body transformed in mid-air. Some of the workers fled, others seemed transfixed by what was happening. Finally it stopped as he majestically floated back to the ground, eyes closed.

"Kazuma?" One of the braver workers asked.

The eyes opened, yellow with slitted pupils.

"No," and a burst of lightning sends the man flying into a group of his colleagues. "Finally...flesh..blood. It is not much, but it is a start." He turns in the direction of a strong pulse. "Yes, merely the beginning." And he casually walks in the direction of the signal, energy crackling the ground as his feet touched.

	"With respect, I doubt it was anything that could properly understood from mortal perception." Orochi's eyes narrow in thought. "You are a stranger to this time, too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I have no doubt I would find the ancient past as unusual as the present, it is true." he admits readily. "And yes, taken out of time to train with the kenku for seven hundred years. I have had more time to learn this era... but it remains strange." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"So it goes," he said with an element of understanding. He narrows his eyes in annoyance of the chopsticks, unaccustomed to human hands, so he simply grans some with his hand and eats it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Under the circumstances, he can understand the table manners. He just does his best to ignore it, like most minor breaches. "So, what next?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	When he finishes his mouthful of rice, he looks back at Hajime. "I will find the rest of my scattered essence and return to my true self." He sits up straight. "And reclaim what was taken from me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Just as well, kensai," Orochi begins. "I'm a poor storyteller." he finishes the sake, standing up. "The rules of this custom are that we cannot attack each other while inside this structure, yes?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	get_medieval 2012-05-08 11:59 pm UTC (link)
	"A shame." he agrees, standing as well, once he finishes his tea. Because tea is important. "Indeed, an opportunity for those who are, or might be enemies to talk and share tea while recognizing we are not barbarians. Once we leave this structure, we are opposed, and I will expect no quarter. It has been an honor to dine with you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Orochi considers that a moment. "This was..pleasant. Human civilization will not be utterly destroyed. All who serve me will have a place. Perhaps you will find some comfort in that." It was the closest Orochi could come to a kind word.

"I see. Then there is no rule stating I cannot do this!" His mouth opens wider than any normal human and launches a massive fireball through the door to those he suspected awaited outside to attack him.

	No one was immediately outside the structure. Amiko cannot avoid calling out. "I realize I'm a mere girl," she says with cold politeness, "but credit me at least without huddling an ambush around the door." She's standing outside, clear open quite a ways away, falnked by Grogg and Clockwork. "Let's return to business and face each other like grownups." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"This creature will leave the human now." Clockwork speaks harshly, the usual chimes of one of the hexagrams coming more like the distant booming of a belltower. 'Skinning.' The prayer beads Clockwork adorns itself with begin to rattle and glow. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Hajime nods to the first comment. Indeed, while he would give his life if needed to prevent this being from ruling, it is because he serves a different master. The idea of rule by the strongest only makes a certain degree of sense, if rule by the righteous descendent of the kami is not possible. This entire democracy thing makes very little sense still.

At the fireball, he quirks a brow at least. "Anyone who would have hidden in ambush would have deserved that." he replies, without hesitation.
"May I have one minute to leave the tent, and prepare for battle properly? My ancestors should be told that I may be joining them."

	Orochi's jaw sets back into normal human shape. "Very well, kensai." He twists, cracking his neck. "And tell the automaton that the human whose body this was has passed on." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Hajime bows respectfully to his enemy, then, without sign he doesn't take the Orochi at his word, he moves to the other group, and kneels to pray to his ancestors.

He does say to the others, quietly enough to not be overheard, as he's settling in to pray,
"The spirit of the possessed body is already dead. And he has not found all parts of himself - that is his next goal. This one - weakened, can be defeated. Show no mercy."

As he said, he expected no quarter, and will give none.

After the minute is nearly up, he rises, hand on his sword hilt, turns, and bows to the Orochi once more. Just because they're deadly enemies now is no reason to be rude.

	Orochi walks out of the ruins of the entrance, warily eyeing the assembled BH6. He gives a nod of his head to Hajime. When the final second ends, Orochi brings his hands together hard, creating a massive sound-wave. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Amiko had figured. When the sonic attack hits, she rolls without it acrobatically, tumbling hand over heels away, then tossing out a few very hot fletchettes to get his attention, along with what she's trusting the others charged with getting his attention to do. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	For its part in being an appealing target, Clockwork draws earth, stone, and plants into its form once again. It doesn't become the towering giant that attacked Kyoto, but he looms large over Orochi as he swings an arm at him, even as the sound-wave crumbles some of the form away.

	With no particular protections from such things, aside from reflex, Hajime is left diving and rolling out of the way, a bit hard of hearing and scratched up from the extra impact. He comes up from the roll a bit out of the way, watching the scene for openings and trying to not make himself too immediately obvious or threatening. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The sonic attack rattles Grogg, but he'd planted his feet and was but pushed back. He spoke not a word, but instead drew in a great breath... and exhaled a mighty blast of atomic fire. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kayura waited until right after the blast of fire from Grogg. Then she moved to try and flank Orochi. She wanted to be sure at least one of them could really hit him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

The blades connect, but they bounce off the hardened, scaled-skin. Still, the burns hurt, causing the serpent to look toward Amiko. However Clockwork's blow came down. Orochi brought both hands up, catching the fist in his hands, though the force still caused a small crater to form under Orochi's feet. He sees Grogg's fire and twin beams of blue light fly from his eyes, connecting with the flame, causing a vast amount of steam to be produced from the connection. With the flame doused, he opens his mouth to send another fireball at the newly grown plant matter.

	Amiko stays out of the way of everyone's breath, but keeps herself in his field of vision. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Out of the field of vision, Hajime trusts his allies to do their jobs. In a battle of gods and monsters - what is one man with a sword to do? He bought them time, at least.

For the moment, he kneels, closing his eyes, trusting to fate, and praying to his ancestors, asking for guidance and the right moment, if it should come.

He may respect this foe more than most, but he has no intention of letting it take the Earth.

	Grogg cut the blast of atomic breath when the bad guy countered it with his beams. He was stronger than Grogg thought! He let out a bellow and withdrew into his shell, flying toward Orchi like a missile. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
