Chapter 5 - The Decision Is Yours

"Ahhhhh Rainn bro these hot springs just soothes you to the soul."I say casually drowning myself. Rain then grabs me by my hair and pulls my head to the surface. Then says the most obvious thing ever "If you stay under water to long you'll drown."

I start laughing "Man your a character aren't you?"

Rain the just stares blankly at me and says, " Why did you save me back there you could've just ran past like the carriage did. But you actually came to my help. Why?"

It didn't take long for me to reply "Rain you remind me of a dear friend I had. And if I had left you there I just know I would've regretted it." So tell me who exactly are you and where did you come from, and why do you- never mind."

Rain then reply's " I don't know if you'd believe or not but I was reincarnated into this world i remember a lot of things from my old world especially my best friend Isamu Saito-" before he could finish saying the name I slapped him n said, "How dare you die after me" and laughed. Rain then looks at me and says "No fucking way that's you bro!"

"It is bro i promise alright now hurry upq and tell me how you died I wanna see if mine was cooler."

Rain looks at me and laughs "Yup that's definitely my bro in there. Anyways you wanna know so bad I'll tell you, so there I was going on a date with this girl and you know I gotta treat her to a good wagu streak. But then in the middle of our meal some guy came running in the diner and this man had a whole bomb strapped to his chest so at this point I charge the man and he shoots me in the nipples with a tazer then says you know what fuck this dinner I'm gonna go play with the little hero here. I was then taken to a warehouse where they start slowly peeling my skin right off my body letting it heal every few days just to make the suffering worse. I was then hung upside while they took out a fat I mean fat suitcase filled to the brim of the same kind of knives he looked at me and said let's see how many knives a hero can take before he dies. He stabbed me with knife after knife purposely missing my vital organs to prolong my death I counted 47 knives until I stopped feeling the pain but I'm sure there was over a hundred because the suitcase was empty all the while I'm still upside down after he stuck the last knife in me he cut the chains holding me with a grinder all that numbness was gone I was screaming until I felt the blood fill up my lungs and I started vomiting blood but then the weirdest thing happened my blood looked like it opened a purple portal and the man who was torturing me then got executed buy a black figure n then I woke up and I was a baby again and here we are but you should probably know my new name is Rain Takukachi."

Damnnn Rain you really got the worst death but idk if I'd say cool though." I say laughing my ass off. "Let's start walking home now it's starting to get dark out."

While we start walking I look over " Hey Rain do you have any place to stay like somewhere you call home?"

He looked a little sad but said, "No my village was raided by bandits and I'm pretty sure I killed everyone in the village because I wanted to survive all I remember is getting taken from my mother and some guy smacked her with a wooden club and i practically blew up right then and there I killed everybody I am the soul survivor of the village know as Nullify Village."

"Damn bro that's pretty rough but what if you could stay with me would you?"

"Yes of course I would!" Rain replied excitedly.

"Let's see what my father says when we get home."

As soon as we stepped in the house my mother picked me up and squeezed the soul out of me. " Ooh Oni dear you had me worried sick it's so very late. Oh and it looks like you brought a friend. And who might this be?"

"Mother father, this is my new friend Rain Takukachi."

They look at Rain and say, "Now where did you come from and are you a spy?"

Rain then looks at them and tells them his story leaving out that he's reincarnated.

"Oh my child you need to learn how to control that power of yours I know you didn't mean to do that so as long as you promise me that you will work on mastering the ways of magic. From here on out you Rain Takukachi you are a member of our family. As a gift I would like to offer you a sword that only you can use, I had this purchased a while back just to keep as a decoration but as your village made this it's rightfully yours."

Rain grabs the sword and opens it up the hilt had some very interesting sigils on it the material that these swords use are highly rare whenever he completely unsheathed it all the sigils started glowing red. They then started floating up and launching one at a time at rain with each hit he started screaming he started begging for us to help him and I was about to until my father said "No Oni we can't help him through this he is going to have to fight this battle all we can do is watch and wait."

(Meanwhile in Rains head) "You killed us! Burned us! You deserve to dieee! You would've been better off as a slave! Yet after committing such atrocities you dare put your hands on one of our swords! Yesss scream some moreee I want see you writhing in pain!"

"Stop just shut up" said Rain "I picked up this sword to prove I'm worthy of wielding this beautiful sword. I knew your soul would try to attack me after all a piece of your soul goes into every one of your swords does it not. Listen I may have killed you but know I wasn't wanting to I can't control the powers I was given yet and after seeing my mother beat I broke. Now you can hate me for that or you can let me wield this sword for the rest of my life and prove to you that I can control this insane power. The decision is yours!"
