*OH GOD PLEASE PROTECT MY CHILD

USE HIM AS YOU PLEASE*

*SURVIVE* *SURVIVE * * SURVIVE*

Gasp gasp

Touka jolts awake beneath a tree,drenched in sweat,chest heaving.

"Are you alright..?" Mary asks touka her voice trembles she sees the fear written all over his face.

"Papa papa .... are you okay?" Who would ask such a question but touka's adopted daughter millim.

Touka forces a faint exhale.

Millim smiles,lifting herself up to touch the tree leaves.

"You fell asleep while i was dancing let me show you again ...okay?" A chuckle

"come on,touka she worked hard on this one".

"i call this one.... sparrow"

.....

A few years later, millim is now a young woman graceful,admired,beautiful.

"Good morning,dad" millim runs to touka

"Hmmm" He answered by nodding his head,behind him is Mary talking to some elderly folks .

"Say Dad.... why don't you ever talk much....?"

Mary runs towards them "goooooodmorning,Touka! Millim!"

"Big sis" she runs to hug Mary.

Suddenly,as Mary passes a stranger,a voice whisper into her ear

"No more delays" then disperses into the crowd before Mary could comprehend. Touka notices, but brushes it aside after all we're in the market.

.....

As theyre about to get home to prepare dinner "Touka,can you get meat for dinner?"

"Hmmm sure"

At the village market a cold fear cuts through him, cold breeze slid past him.

His instincts tightened like a blade being sharpened.

"Ahhhhhh please let me go mister"

A scream he knew better than his own breath "millim"

He ran like his own life was at death's door.

Touka bursts into the house the sight freezes him... blood millim is pinned to the ground,surrounded by village men.

"D-dad .....help....."

Touka enraged begins fighting with swift steps he decapitated 3 hefty men and 4 then more the numbers kept increasing till a shadow grabs him soon more grab him surprising even him a master of the light feet.

" how did I not sense them" these words ran through his skull before he was slammed to the ground.

"Let me go!Let me-!!" a voice answers "You may continue".

The men continue violating Millim.

"Huh" Touka couldn't believe his ears what he had heard.

His screams twist into something inhuman.

"STOP!PLEASE!PLEASE!-SHE'S JUST A CHILD!! But the one who steps forward with a moment of laughter she emerges who else but Mary.

"So the great assassin can beg pitiful to think I actually looked up to you a bit".

"D-dad!!".

"Tch, shut up bitch" she kicks Millim in the stomach millim coughs blood,eyes reaching desprately towards Touka. He breaks completely.

"Ah ah ah ah ah yo touka it's been a long time eh?".

"Re-Re Ren? Wh-what are you doing here Wait don't tell me. Touka grinds his teeths hard.

You promised you bastard, you said I was free from the organisation after that last job."

With a devilish smile running down his face "naive as ever eh." Touka's voice cracks into rage.

"Oh,Touka.You really believed that? Nobody leaves the organisation." Laughter bursts throughout the villagers and with more kicks to millim he dusts his suit "don't let her blood stain me here's a gun finish the job and him" handing a glock 489 to a villager. "Well then you've been a useful tool thank you and goodbye. Pow pow pow 3 shots to millim's body, 2 to her chest and 1 to her head sending her to the other side.

Millim Collapses..

Touka's scream tears the night apart .Touka free's himself with bruth force almost breaking his bones and charges at Ren but is stopped again by the shadow guards wrestling him to the ground, while Ren drags millim's body and throws it off the cliff. "Ren!!!!!"

" Why don't you do yourself a favour and shut up and be forgotten like the rest of your clan"

BANG BANG 1 shots to touka's head and 1 to his chest.

Ren throws Touka off the cliff "Rest now TOUKA you've done enough.

"Activate" "Activate" "Activate!!!!!!!!!!!

"Activate my will drive" these were what ran through touka's mind "do I still have a drive?"

.....

Will drive, a superhuman ability given to us by the gods allowing us to surpass our limits in certain conditions of all the people who have awakened their drive there has never been none who hasn't experienced it a real life changer. We have 3 drives

Cell drive > will drive > all drive.

For over 500 years there has never been one to awaken the all state ( all drive ).

As touka fell Mary watched wanting to see him to his bitter end.

Touka falls faster and faster in a spilt of a second with remaining of his active cells.

He sees at the edge of a cliff (Red spider lillies)

And out of pure instinct he gives off a creepy smile.

Splash, the once blue river turns red with 2 bodies, 1 drowning with a Sign of struggle or life the other floating like 2 destinies cut short.
