   Reitan Katana ~ Ha No Tamashii Dorobo
Well I wasn't gonna start it yet but I'm bored so I will...



"Come on Ehaisoh! It's noon already and I shouldn't have to do everything around here while you sleep!"

It was an average day in Mokoria. Small children were out in the streets chaseing frightened squirrels, most adults where out getting the town ready for the celebration comeing the next day while Ehaisoh slept in.

"Ehaisoh? EHAISOH! Fine have it your way..." Sohatoe went down to the river to fill a large bucket with it's cold water grumbling angrily to herself to find Mitaku waiting for her.

"Hey Sohatoe. He's still asleep eh? You go back to what you were doing okay? I'll get him up."

Sohato hadn't even the time to reply before he took off up the hill to the house.

"Ehaisooooooh. Are ya gonna wake up or do I have to throw you in the river again?"

The reply was that of a teenager who had gone to sleep at 7 AM and was previously sleep deprived, followed by the rolling over and ignoring of his best friend.

"Alright." Mitaku threw him over his shoulders and began running back to the river.

"......Hm? AH! Mitaku don't! Please! I'm up already!"

"Too late."

There was a loud splash that drew the small children out of the trees and over to the source of the sound.

"Coldcoldcold. Fuck Mitaku! Ya didn't have to do that!"

"Yes he did! Bad Ehai-san over sleeped again. You should have been up loooong time ago!" Replied one of the children.

"Besides that you should be thinking about what your going to do when you get the Katana not sleeping little brother." Sohatoe snapped.

"Oh yea the damn sword....big effin deal...."

"IT IS A BIG DEAL!"

"Whatever...stupid legend...what do you mean what I'm gonna do? I'm just gonna keep the damn thing till somebody else can take it." He stated chucking a rock at the shocked and mildly disappointed children who ran quickly screaming something about evil meteors from beyond.

"But you should at least try to unfreeze and purify it...you're the first person in over 10,000 years to have power over ice." Mitaku argued.

Ehaisoh chucked his drentched shirt at him and flopped in the warm grass. "Oh yea right....and how will that help?"

"You are so damn ignorant! I swear we're not related. Ya know maybe you should just leave it alone. You'd probably just taint it more with your fucking negative attitude anyway."

"Hey I'm not being negative I just think we're all waisting our time with this stupid legend. What if it's the wrong sword? And even if it is the Ha No Tamashii Dorobo who the hell is gonna attempt to use it anyway?"

Both of them choose to ignore this and simply glare at him and walk off.

"Kay fine. Don't answer..."

"Does our new carrier not know of the proficy!?" Asked a shocked old man who had seemingly appeared out of this air.

"Where'd you come from?" o.O

"So you don't know then. Well I wouldn't suppose you would be able to make sense of it anyway so I'll put it simply. Supposedly a million years ago there was an extremely powerful youkai that forged a sword putting all of his powers into it. With this weapon he would kill thousands of youkai and mages alike, useing the sword to steal their souls and obtain their powers. After claiming exactly 9,999 mage's souls over several years the master of the sword announced that after the sword had destroyed 10,000 mages that it would become invincible. And curiously enough there was only one mage left in the world. An ice mage such as yourself. A huge war between the humans and the youkai's followers covered the planet when he showed himself. In the end the mage knocked the sword from the youkai's hands and froze it solid before killing it's owner. Shortly after the war ended in the retreat of the youkai and the Ice mage disappeared. It was said that one million years later the true heirs of both the ice mage and the youkai would appear, the sword would be freed and a new war would begin. So there's the basics. Kind of interesting that it should be exactly one million years later an ice master should be born and the youkai should retreat to Jigokuhi mountain, the place where the fight took place is it not?"

"I guess so. I still don't think it's me though...so why does everyone else?" He turned to look at the old man but he was gone as mysteriously as he came.
