Kashi : the ghost of yamada

Kashi sits on his horse leading the samurai of the yamada clan into battle ,katanas sheathed in their scabbards and spears in hand ,Kashi stops and turns the horse around "men today we fight to defend our homeland ,our wives and children and more ever our honor as samurai" he shouts "yes lord kashi sama" the men shout "the hashizu murder and inflict pain without remorse and take life without reason ,they are mongrels without honor and men with out honor deserve no mercy ,for honor ,for yamada!!!" Kashi shouts ,his shout is interrupted by the blow of a horn and cries of battle coming from the bottom of the slope ,the hashizu charge across the plain in a sea of of warriors out numbering the samurai a thousand to one ,a half smile crawls up the side of Kashi's face "today we die and die with honor" he shouts and the horse charges down the slope ,his men follow his lead and are soon charging down the slope ,the two armies collide and begin massacre each others ranks ,men fall as they are beheaded or sliced apart ,flaming arrows rain from the sky impaling men on both sides of the war ,Kashi rides forward impaling more and more warriors with his spear ,he freezes as he sees the hashizu commander slaughtering his men , a behemoth the commander was ,standing around seven feet tall wielding a massive one hand axe "this man is a monster" kashi thinks gritting his jaw ,kashi throws his spear at the commander who catches it before it his him in the temple and throws it back at kashi ,kashi's horse throws him off and the spear hits the horse where Kashi had been mounted killing him instantly ,Kashi scrambles to his feet and bellows and angry shout charging at the commander unsheathing his Katana with his right hand "die you mongrel" Kashi shouts vertically swinging his sword at the hashizu commander ,he chuckles and slams his massive left foot into kashi's chest knocking the wind out of him and sending him plummeting to the ground ,his katana slides a few meters away from him and before he can climb back to his feet the commander plants his foot in kashi's abdomen "honor ,what a joke ,look what honor has brought upon you" the commander laughs "as a yamada ,no as a samurai in general ,honor is everything" kashi says stabbing him in the calf with his tanto (for all who don't know a tanto is a smaller katana samurai carry around) ,the commander wraps him grasp around kashi's abdomen and lifts him off the ground till their at eye level "give up, there is no honor for the dead" the commander say "it is better to die with honor ,than to live as a another man's slave" kashi says ,he then slams his foot in the commander's jaw sending him tumbling backs and Kashi jumps out of his grasp ,he runs and picks up his katana ,and turns back to face the angry commander "you live as vermin and shall die as vermin" the commander shouts swinging his axe at kashi "gather your thoughts ,remember the teachers of lord Gwan Lee" kashi thinks closing his eyes ,he slides his left foot backwards ,leans his upper body forward ,he pulls his elbows back ,pointing the tip of the sword towards the charging commander ,he steps off ducking under the massive horizontal axe swing ,he opens his eyes and cleaves off both of the commander's hands with one might swing off his katana "this is the meaning of honor" Kashi says slicing open the commander's throat "lord kashi has defeated their commander ,all hail lord kashi sama!!!" one of the samurai shout , kashi turns to face the fierce battle and is dumb struck but what he sees ,a thunder storm coming in from the east and a massive oni ,about the height of three men and the width of five ,clad in black armor wielding a big black halberd ,the behemoth starts fast walking ,which becomes a dash he emerges onto the battle field murdering all in his sight ,friend or foe ,the beast doesn't care ,kashi clenches his side "must have broken I few ribs" he thinks " susanoo give me strength" he whispers grasping the hilt of his katana and dashes towards the monster in armor "jinbè ,tobi ,kaizu ,follow me" he shouts to three young samurai ,they start dashing behind kashi "what's the plan?" asks jinbè "to take down that abomination" kashi says pointing his katana at the oni "how do we go about doing it sensei?" kaizu asks "aim for the throat" kashi says sprinting faster "you must be kashi yamada ,demon of flashing strikes" the oni chuckles ,kashi doesn't reply and inhumanely leaps into the air until his six foot stature is aligned with the oni's head ,he holds his katana with both hands and it releases a white glow "halo crescent" kashi whispers swinging the blade down ,the blade let's off a white energy slash which cuts the oni's head in two "your great as ever lord kashi" shouts jinbè "it'll take more than that to kill an oni" kashi says landing on the ground "this might be fun" laughs the disfigured oni , his head closes back together and all signs of any wounds are completely gone "I'll send you back to the pit of fire from whence you came demon" kashi says taking his sword stance "a child such as you wouldn't understand the power of the oni" the oni chuckles ,kashi dashes towards the oni and their weapons clash in a furious barrage of stabs and slashes "I can't see where their arms are" says kaizu dumbstruck ,and suddenly an enemy sneaks upon the three boys and starts massacring them "no!!!" kashi shouts turning his attention to the warrior killing the boys "fuujin tempest" shouts kashi charging at coward slicing him apart with blinding speed "never turn your attention away from your opponent" the oni says and then kashi feels the hilt of the halberd hit him across the back of this head sending him tumbling onto his face ,he feels the hilt once again hit him in the back of the head slamming his face into the blood soaked ground "damn cowards ,all of you" is the last thing kashi thinks before his consciousness slips away and he's left in the darkness of his own mind
