## Backstory

2 Years ago
*In the big palace of the castle, Eden. The Heir of the Shogun, Nero Kurõzu, and his little sister, the princess of this shogunate would be in the royal gardens*

Shina: “Nero-san! Nero-san!”

*Nero sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose as he’d go on one knee and looked at his, 14 year old sister Shina*

Nero: “What is the matter Shina-Chan?”
Shina: “Why are you smoking? Lord father said that wasn’t healthy!”
Nero: “Shina-Chan, I really don’t give a dime about what he says...”

*Nero held his cigarette as he’d exhale smoke from it again while his beautiful red handled and red scabbard katana would be attached to his belt*

Shina: “Nero-San! You’re so mean! I hate you!”
Nero: “Shina! Take that back right now or I’ll kill you!”
Shina: “Bleh! You won’t ever kill me stupid Nero-San!”

*Shina would stick her tongue out at Nero as Nero gave her a death stare*

*One of the Servants ran towards Nero as he’d pant. Nero turned towards him*

Nero: “What the hell do you want?”
Servant: “It’s your Cousin and Uncle! They have arrived at Eden! Your father wishes for your presence and also lady shina’s!”

*Nero shook his head several times as he’d grab Shina by the back of her shirt and started to carry her with him as she’d show signs of struggle*

Shina: “Hey! Let go of me, Nero-San!”
Nero: “Shut up, you damn candy cruncher!”

*They arrived at the castle as his uncle and cousin would already be talking with his father, Shiki. Their uncle would turn towards them as he’d grin*

Kaijin: “Yo, Nero-San and the young princess Shina-Chan!”
Nero: “Hi... Uncle... what an unpleasant surprise...”

Shiki: “Nero! Kaijin and his son Oni are staying here for this week! Behave yourself and be polite to my brother and nephew!”
Nero: “How about, no...”
Shina: “Daddy! Can I sing them my lullaby?”
Shiki: “No! Not now Shina! Now is not the right time!”
Nero: “Ha! See what you it! Even dad dislikes you!”
Shina: “You’re always mean to me, Nero-San!”

*Shina started to run away crying as Nero laughed however Shiki pointed at the door she ran through and Nero sighed and followed*

*Nero walked towards Shina and sat down next to her*

Nero: “Shina-Chan.. I don’t hate you completely. I just need to be focused and not so easily impressed if I want to be shogun.”
Shina: “But can’t there be a kind and understanding Shogun?”
Nero: “Maybe there could but a shogun has to be strong, Shina-Chan”
Shina: “Compassion is not weakness, Nero..”
Nero: “.....”

*Nero would hug Shina as they fell asleep under the great white tree of the gardens*

Meanwhile in the castle hall
*Shogun Shiki sat on his throne discussing some plans with his right hand man as the doors got blasted open by light magic. Kaijin and a group of warriors would walk into the hall*

Shiki: “What is the meaning of this?!”
Kaijin: “Execute them.... Execute all of them”
Warriors: “Yes, Majesty.”

*Nero and Shina would still be asleep as Nero started to smell smoke. He had awoken and looked down from the gardens and saw the towns burning and small clashes happening between royal forces and enemy forces. He turned around to Shina but saw Oni holding her by the neck with a katana in his hands*

Oni: “Surrender now in the name of the shogun!”
Nero: “What do you mean shogun?! My father is the damn shogun!”
Oni: “No he is not! Long live the proud lion Shiki!”

*Oni pointed at the town’s square as there would be a lion with a head sown on its head, it was shiki’s head. Shiki’s naked body hanged down from the temple and Nero clenched his fist and grit his teeth*

Nero: “You damned son of a bitch! I’ll kill you where you stand!”
Shina: “Daddy! Nooo! Stop it leave my family alone!”
Oni: “Surrender now! Or I will kill your sister!”
Nero: “Damn you! you fucking bastard!”

*Nero threw his katana on the ground as he’d got cuffed along with Shina and thrown into the dungeon*

*Shina started humming her lullaby as Nero turned to her and held her close and he’d kiss her on her head*

Nero: “Just keep humming Shina... just keep humming....”

*Shina would nod her head as she’d tear up and held Nero even closer*

*Kaijin walked down into the dungeon as He walked up to their cell*

Kaijin: “Hey, Nero. How are you doing”
Nero: “I will kill you. If you do not shut your damn mouth...”
Kaijin: “Oi Oi! If you and your crybaby sister want to stay alive you have to earn money to keep caring for yourself.”
Nero: “How am I able to make money in this fucking cell?!”
Kaijin: “Every night, you fight in the arena and you’ll get one jewel. You need to make 50,000 Jewels in total alright?”
Nero: “Fine, whatever ill kill all of them!”

Kaijin: “I think we can start the first match then! Take him with me and leave that trash girl here!”
Nero: “Keep humming Shina! Never stop humming!”

*Nero got taken by the guards as they’d throw him into a large arena. There wouldn’t be any spectators as other former royal forces got thrown into the arena*

Nero: “What in the 7 sins is this?!”

*Kaijin would be on a big stage as he’d gain a lacrima microphone*

Kaijin: “You all recognize each other hmmm?! Because you all have fought in the same army and now you have to fight those same comrades for a spot to survive!”
Nero: “You damn basta-?!”

*One of the gladiators already charged at Nero with a trident as Nero stepped aside grabbed the trident pulled it out of his hand spun it and stabbed him with it*

Nero: “fucking hell...”
Kaijin: “Keep making money!”
Nero: “I will! You fucking deaf sack of shit!”

*Nero continued to fight and managed to kill of them. The guards removed his weapon as he got thrown back into his cell where Shina would still be humming*

Nero: “Shina don’t worry I’ll get us enough money to get us out of here! I work as hard as I can to get you a normal life!”
Shina: “Do you think those countries from the stories actually exist?”
Nero: “I think we’re gonna find out soon enoug!”
Shina: “Yes!”

*Nero continued every night to fight against countless of enemies. However when time passed the opponents started to get more well equipped while he got nothing*

Kaijin: “Maybe you should ask a sword. That would fight easier for you, really easy.”
Nero: “Shut up! Listen I will break free and take back this shogunate!”
Kaijin: “Just saying that a sword would be really handy!”
Nero: “I said shut it You damned fucking idiot shogun!”
Kaijin: “I guess that you don’t want to spoil Shina...”
Nero: “Damn you, you Piece of shit. Bring me that sword I’ll show you how it’s done!”
Kaijin: “It will take 3 hours, have some patience!”
Nero: “Damn it fine by me!”

*Kaijin and Nero waited for 3 hours as the royal black smith came and handed Nero a katana. It was completely black, the scabbard was black and shiny as well, the handle was black and gold.*

Kaijin: “Want to test it out right now?”
Nero: “why the hell not! Bring those damn enemies!”

*Nero got moved to the arena again as the well equipped gladiators came as well and Kaijin would start the fight. Nero easily slashed through multiple people at once as he’d laugh and slash those people*

Nero: “Making more money! Making more money! Making more-?!”

*Kaijin stood up and walked to the lacrima microphone*

Kaijin: “I can see that you’re happy, Nero. Is that sword made out of partially your sister’s bones really that great? I didn’t suspect a sword made out of the bones from an annoying singing brat would be decent!”

*Nero’s eyes widened as he’d gripped the katana. His eyes watered up and his face turned into pure anger. Darkness would cloak his sword and immense magic power came off Nero*

Nero: “What the hell... Was... That?!”

*Kaijin would be laughing along side his guard, Oni and other nobles as Nero would start to hum Shina’s lullaby. His eyes turned emotion less, he’d raise his sword as darkness would completely turn it black. He’d slash down to the arena wall as the wall got first slashed in half but got shattered right after*

*Nero ran out as the guards started to chase him. He’d sheathe his sword and tears started flowing*

Nero: “Damn.... DAMN IT! WHY?! WHY GOD?! SHE WAS DAMN INNOCENT?! WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN HER?!”

*Nero yelled, cried and ran. He’d run to the port and jumped in sea and swam under water to an already sailing ship and tried to hide himself within the cargo deck.*

Nero: “I am sorry Shina... I’ll get all the money we need... I swear I will! Damn it!”

*Nero would drop several tears on the ground as he’d really clench his katana as the ship slowly sailed off to fiore*
