And the battle raged on...
Chad and Keisuke, closed the distance on each other these two warriors had fought for days and now the end of this battle was in sight.
Keisuke dashed in head long his ancestral katana whispering through the air cutting at Chad with a deadly speed hoping that he could over whelm the Crab and end the fight quickly. But Chad was not done this day, each cut he moved aside each blow Chad changed the distance forcing Keisuke to dash in again and renew the attack. Now it was Chad's turn, his right arm wounded, so what he lost in technique he made up for in sheer strength and heavy were the blows he laid down on Keisuke. Suddenly their swords became entwined, Chad and Keisuke were now face to face only the steel of their swords separating them.
"The exit is back that way" Chad said, "No, I would like to wait at the Palace for the Emperor to arrive" Keisuke responded. Keisuke shifted his weight and slammed his shoulder into Chad's wounded arm throwing the two apart from each other. Regaining his balance Chad spat at the ground, and as if pain and weariness were a distant memory to him Chad raised sword and thrust in again once more.
Keisuke caught Chad's sword with his own, and rolling his wrists the Lion swept the Crab's sword from his hands disarming Chad. Without hesitation or thought Chad balled his fist and swung at Keisuke using the defiance of his own will as a source strength. Turning his hips to the side Keisuke stepped past Chad's punch, raising his arms Keisuke drove his right elbow straight into Chad's forehead knocking the Crab backwards to the ground, pain exploded within Chad as he hit the ground. In his mind he screamed at his body demanding it to get back up and continue the fight. But he did not move, and Chad felt rage as world around him grew dark, this was no time to rest this was no time to stop the day was not over yet.
"Yutaro", Keisuke bellowed, and from the throngs of Lion soldiers a shugenja came hurrying to his side. "Yutaro, see that the Lord Yasuki is cared for and see to it personally that his wounds are tended and that he survives this day." He pointed his Katana at two samurai, "You two assist Yutaro, Lord Yasuki is now my prisoner, take from the feild but treat with the honor that his station demands." A few more samurai stepped forward and lifted Chad's body to their shoulders and after Yutaro gathered any of Chad possessions that may have fallen including katana, Yasuki Chad was carried away from field of battle.
"Lions, we have a meeting with the Hantei let us not keep him waiting", Keisuke and his men charged through the now open gates.
