the loss of a leader

*isei sahkes his head weakly*

China kept quiet she knew her place. This was not the time to argue with him.

*every1 set up camp*

China sat at the edge of camp alone. She was finally able to think without the entire Clan knowing what she was thinking. But she did miss communicating with Blade that way. She began to feel sad missing Yasho.

*every1 did although it was hard to tell because of the enjoyment of the price being gone especially sai felt great because he finally had his own free will back*

China remained on the edge of the camp alone. She could not join in the joy of the others. She had doubts about continuing with the Clan. Her only reason for staying now is Blade and Tai. She had until the next full Moon to decide. That did not give her much time to decide.

*by the next night it was a full moon and yashi acted as trial leader and ordered miyu, kir, isei being carried by 2 enginners on a cot with 2 pole handles at each end and blade as well as tai to enter*

China waited for her turn. She was unsure what her price would be this time.

*yashi faces u* "oh forgot u too go with them incase the same price is put in"

China enters the ruins with the others. She stands next to Blade.

*they get to a statue like yasho's dark side with black eye teeth, claws, and pure black eyes but bigger more powerful and has 6 arms and 6 legs with a face of evil icnarnite*
*kir* "that must be what a pure breed of unknown looks like"

China did not show the slightest bit of fear when she saw the statue. For the statue had been revealed to her during the last full Moon. She waited for the ritual to begin.

*kir* "isei says that the ritual alter should be deeper in" *the look of that statue gave every1 the creeps even u*
*blade* "man id hate to face something like that" *they continue on deeper*

China sticks close to Blade. The statue was more creepy then in her vision.

*as they go deeper there are more statues of them that seem to give the feeling of being watched*

China does not like the feeling of being watched. She holds on to Blade.

*every1 is creeped out as they get to a large room where an alter is seen with moonlight shining down on it and 1 statue looks like yasho with the right vertical half of the body in his dark side form and other side smiling kindly*

"Is this the right place?" China went up to the statue and touched it gently on its face. "Yasho," she whispered.

*kir looks at the tablet below* "i cant read it its written ina foreign language"

China looks at the tablet. "It is an ancient language. I have only seen it once when I was young. I am not sure if I can read it or not." She tries to read the tablet.

*u cant translate it*
*kir* "it might jsut be the unknown's language"

"I cannot read it. I am sure if my father were here he would be able to read it."

*blade* "how do we do the ritual?"
*kir* "isei says we place the leader on the alter and we require some sort of stone"

"Do you want me to levitate him to the altar?"

*kir* "yashi isnt herE"
