Snippet #8346

Saito Renbara walked the streets of Empire City, casually sifting through the crowd bringing no attention to himself, even though he carried a good number of swords at his side. These six katanas were his Dragon Fangs, and if he ever had to draw all six, death was near to be sure. As he made his way throught the city he finally reached his destination, the center of the city, and the location of the military base. He had no plans to attack it at the moment, yet, he sought only to observe his future target.
"Heavily fortified, just like I thought. This will be fun." He grinned as he looked at the massive building. "I'm dying to take a crack at it..." He gave one last look, then turned and left. It was about time he returned to the Kraken Headquarters. As he left the gates of Empire City he gave a sigh of relief. He hated the place, with its snobby atmosphere, where nobles preyed on the poor. Well, soon it wouldn't matter, as he planned to see this city ablaze. As Saito headed to the woods where he his his horse, he suddenly became surrounded by a group of men.
"Well, what do we have here? Some noble out on his own. Those are some fancy swords you got there...they must be heavy, so why don't you let us help you with those." The leader of the group said. Saito gave a small smile.
"Thanks for your generosity, but I think I can manage. Thanks anyway." Saito started to walk forward to move past them, but the leader drew a sword to stop him. The others followed suit.
"I didn't wanna have to kill you, but its more fun this way!" The leader charged, and in flash Saito had one sword drawn, and the leader was cut in half vertically. The others first looked in shock, then charged.
"Such good henchmen, to charge like that..." Saito guarded against all seven of them with his single sword. The bandits had an agape expression. "Unfortunately, I don't have time to play..." With another flash Saito swirled his katana around, turning the bandits into a bloody mess. He then sighed. "That was pointless. I hate weak people...Oh well, I suppose I should be heading back."
