World Terror

Chapter 13

1616, Edo Period j.a.pan.

It had been 10 years since Tokugawa Shogunate put an end to Muromachi period, all the land in the j.a.pan was owned by Daimyo. Which led to constant fight among daimyo, and a process of consolidation ensued, with fewer and fewer daimyo emerging from the local wars and each holding more and more territory, inturn leading to an unprecedented time of peace and prosperity.

But suddenly one day when every thing seemed tranquil, The sky spit out flaming b.a.l.l.s of fire, all over North, South, East and West, every corner of the world. Under the heavy rain some brave and curious locals found wired burnt pores filled rock when they explored the site were the flaming b.a.l.l.s of fire had landed. After these b.a.l.l.s of fire landed it started to rain heavily, throughout the j.a.pan and the world. oddly enough even the deserts exprienced heavy rain. leading to the curiosity of the Tokugawas and the Daimyo"s.

That very night these rocks were sized by the soldiers and presented to the Tokugawa and respective Daimyos. Many court Schoolars examined these rocks and were unable to find its origin as it was not like the rocks they have ever seen, as the mystery around the rock grew they declared that these rocks were no ordinary rocks and would bring huge change upon the world but they were unable to foretell whether these changes will be auspicious or ominous.

The next day to the flaming b.a.l.l.s of fire incident many people claimed to be visited by their dead relatives in their dreams. especially the people who lived at the place"s which were near to the site were the flaming b.a.l.l.s of fire had landed. some even said that the dead claimed to visit them soon in person. what was weird was that even orpans who did not know their perents or relatives were visited by people claiming to their parents in their dreams. This led to huge panick between the people, superst.i.tious people of the edo period under the influnce of their fear visited their ancestral grave to pay respect to their family ancestors without caring for the misty, persistent rain.

When these people visited their ancestral grave something even bizarre was waiting for them, all their ancestrol grave had been trashed and dug up, rain water had filled up the grave and the casket and coffins had float up. when the angry mob whent in search for the GraveKeeper for explanation they cound not find him. Soon it was found that all the coffins and casket were empty missing the respective cropse, Upon further inspection of the dug up graves Scared, confused and angry mob found something which made the hair on the back of their neck stand, They found that the grave weren"t dug from the outside but inside. The scratch"s and claw mark from the back of the coffin led showed that the cropse clawed their way out of their own grave.

The relentless pelting Rain which started since the flaming b.a.l.l.s of fire incident never stopped, under the heavy endless rain all the farms were flooded with rain watr and all the corps were ruined. Due to the fierce, wind-driven rain fishing in the lakes or sea was out of option. with all the macabre and diabolical events happening outside being stuck at home seemed a good idea for few people.


All these bizarre incident led to ma.s.s panick and chaos which could no longer be handled or subdued by the local n.o.ble"s, Unable to find a logical explanation and solution they requested help from their respective Daimyo. Unfortunately the long awaited reinforcement from the Daimyo never arrived. but refuges from the captial stared to flood the towns and villages, claiming that the city and the capital are under the attack of Ghost, zombies and other dirty things.

According to them since the night when all the weird rocks were collected and present to The Tokugawa and Daimyos palaces, weird things began happening in their mansion, like sudden disappearance of the maids, weird chewing nosie could be heard at the middle of the night, sometimes walls and floors would be stained with blood etc. 2 days later after the Rocks arrived at Tokugawa and Daimyos palaces, An a Horde of Zombies attacked the city and capital they did not seem to care about attacking the normal people, they just seemed to being rushing towards the Tokugawa and Daimyos palaces were the weird rocks were placed. Not knowing the what to do and Inorder to save their lives these refuges feld the the capital and cities to the towns and villages.

After gathering all the information from the refuges the low level n.o.bles and samurais all came to a conclusion that all there changes were broght by those Rocks and all the corpes missing from the grave seem to have come alive due to the rocks and the corpse are now searching for the Rocks. These fascination of the zombies towards the rock and its mysterious origin did make the n.o.bles curious but right now they were in no position to quench their curiosity. During this period the rain did kept getting heavier and heavier , the old bamboo house were barely able to withstand the rain and there was not enough place for the refuges to shelter from the rain.

During this period the n.o.bles tried to contact the capital and other cities but soon they came to know that the capital and the cities were in the ruins and filled with Zombies and the whole city was covered in gray mist. This information scared all the opportunistic and ambitious n.o.bles out of their dreams into the reality that this time Humanity was facing something beyond its knowledge and experience, unless they leave behind their petty ideas and come together there is no way they willl be able to overcome the current predicament.

But alas another tragedy hit them, A string of murders seemed to be taking place and the killer was nowhere to be found but the bodies kept piling up. as the fear and panick increased among the refuges and the villagers the dissatisfaction and disagreements grew between them leading to them blaming each other for the string of murders. the bodies of those couldn"t be buried since the dead seem to come alive as zombies to avoid this the bodies were cremated.

When the n.o.bles, officials, Samurai"s were unable to solve the string of murders and were in dire situation, A 2 men team proclaiming to be yin-yang masters visited each of them claiming to be help from the capital.

According to these so called Yin-Yang Masters they were not able to find the murderer because they were searching for wrong suspect, the murderer was never a human but one of supernatural ent.i.ties known as yokai which are demonic, cannibalistic monsters. there are some yokai which take the form of victims deceased loved one to seduce them to a seluded s.p.a.ce and steal their essence. Without waiting for the permission of the n.o.bles they began their so called purification in the middle of the night. during this period all the people inside their homes could hear the sonorous, eerie and discordant wail of something which did not sound like human.

Next morning before the sun rise these Yin Yang masters circled their respective village"s and town"s as if laying down some thing which they claimed as protection formation array to keep the yokai out of the towns and villages. seeing that these people are liget the n.o.bles finally belived that these people were really sent by the capital and enquired the situation of the capital and other big cities.

When the Capital was under the attack of these demonic, cannibalistic monsters the greatest Yin Yang master Sukehime Seimei and along with other Yin- Yang Masters fought against them bravely driving them out of the capital while activating the the capitals Array Formation, saving the imperial family and hundred thousands of innocent lives.

Sukehime Seimei is 21 year old, the youngest and thr greatest yin- yang master, her beauity and figure can be described as the well sculpted sculpture by the hand of G.o.ds. At this young age Sukehime was already the general of the emperor"s Yin - Yang regiment.

After the situation at the capital was under control the Yin and yang spreaded out throughout the j.a.pan in a team of two"s saving and helping the innocent lives from the handes of this demonic, cannibalistic monsters.

After few years when the order was once again attained in the Kingdom of j.a.pan, a huge announment was made that announcing the happiest occasion for the eniter kingdom the marriage of the Lady Sukehime Seimei and The Emperor Tokugawa.

This was indeed the happiest occasion for the kingdom after the period of chaos, entire kingdom celebrated for 10 days and 11 nights.

60 years into future, Sukehime"s youngest son had taken over the throne through a b.l.o.o.d.y path killing all his sibilings using the Yin Yang Arts taught to him by his mother but he had to pay huge price as a result leading to his premature death in his late 40"s.

After his Death Sukehime"s 14 Grandchilren also followed their father"s example and started to eliminate all the obsticals in their path to the throne without caring for the blood ties, relation, or even humanity with in them.

Seeing that future of the j.a.pan would become b.l.o.o.d.y under her grandchildrens regime Sukihime decide to decide on the next hire to the throne herself, which attracted dissatisfication from her grandchilderns towards her. as they all knew who the old lady was going to select as the next hire to the throne, her favorite her youngest grand daughter.

.............

In the original works, Sukehime"s allies were in the kitsuki district. but it was at the broder of the j.a.pan almost 300 miles from the capital. Reaching Kistsuki district under constant threat of a.s.sa.s.sination of their enimes seemed near impossible.

They were currently lacking man power, money, time and a propare disguise. even though both Sukehime and her grand daughter were Yin Yang Master, travelling 300 miles was too much for even them. they will definatly need a horse driven carraige or a steam carriage for their travel but then id not carry money during their escape, all the her money was with her subordinates, who is now captured by her enemies. and they cannot use the jewelry"s on them it will rise the risk of being found.

Sukehime disguised herself and her grand daughter as beggers to escape the search of her enemies meeting the male lead of the original works. This was the lowest point of both Sukehime and her grandaughter used by the original works for the character development of Sukehime"s granddaughter.

This is how the original works begins, after knowing the real ident.i.ty of Sukehime and her grand daughter the male lead decides to help them reach their allies by using his steam run carriage for a promise of a very hefty reward at the destination.

The entire Original works runs around how the main lead helps the female lead that is Sukehime"s granddaughter to find and make allies, how during this process male lead and female lead fall in love and finally take over the throne while imprisonating her brothers and sisters.

Bringing the End to the original works with the marriage of the male and female lead as the entire kingdom celebrates the happy occasion of empress"s marriage by parting for 10 days and 11 nights.
