The war had reached its climax. The two of them, standing face to face, glaring, their swords sheathed, ready to strike. One swift movement, and the final battle had begun.
Chapter 1: The past
Hirako Seiun, the youngest of the royal family of the Kingdom of Hikari. He was, without a doubt, the strongest, calmest, quickest and most intelligent of him and his older brothers; Riku, Leo and Kariya. On top of that, he was the son his father hated the most. Growing up, it was only his mother who cared for him. His brothers, jealous of how gifted he was, repeatedly challenged him to prove they were better than him and failed everytime, and everytime his father seemed to hate him more, which eventually led to him leaving there forever, or so he hoped.
The people of Hikari always fought with Katanas, as special powers were contained inside each person's katana, the power depended on the person itself. Riku possesed the power to create clones of himself, as many as he wanted, to trick his opponents into a direct attack. Leo's katana turned into a scythe when he activated his powers, allowing him to corrupt his opponents senses the moment he cut them, no matter how miniscule the cut was. Kariya's katana disappeared when he used his powers, it turned into pure magic, which he could use to defended, counter and strike his opponent down with powerful attacks. Hirako, however, has never revealed what his power is, not to anyone, his brothers often taunted him about how he never had any, but his power was greated than anyone elses.
It was during one of those times when his brothers were trying to defeat him in battle. They always fought him three on one, never alone.
"Are you ready to be defeated?" Asked Leo, smirking.
"We have the upper hand," Riku bragged, "you'll never beat us three on one this time"
"Really?" Hirako retorted, "You've challenged me, what? A thousand times, have you ever beaten me once?"
The brothers charged, Hirako easily pushed back their attacks. Leo swing his blade from behind, but he was easily overpowered, his sword knocked out of his hand and thrown back. Riku jumped up on the air and aimed for Hirako's head, but ended up the same as Leo.
"Are you ready?" said Kariya, "for my powers?"
Kariya's blade disappeared, and a beam of magic shot from his hands at Hirako, but his attack was easily blocked. Hirako then disappeared and reappeared right infont of Kariya, he then blasted Kariya with the same attack that had been used on him a moment ago.
"How... did you... do that?" gasped Kariya.
"My power." Replied Hirako
"What? But you've... I thought you-"
"I've always had a power, I've just never showed it to you. You see, my power is to trace any ability I've seen before and use it on my opponent, any at all, including yours."
Suddenly, twelve guards appeared infront of them. They all grabbed Hirako. His father then appeared before then.
"My oh my, attacking members of the royal family, I see?"
"So you've resorted to pretending I'm not your son," Hirako said calmly.
"I have no idea what you are talking about, now take him away," said his father, with a note of impatience in his voice.
"I see how it is... but fine... if I must."
He disappeared for a moment, and in a flash all the guards were knocked down. He then appeared on the castle walls.
"I'm leaving. I've had enough of this. You've wanted me gone for a long time, and so I shall comply"
His mother watched from a balcony high above, she was crying silently.
"Go," she whispered down to Hirako, "be happy... please."
In an instant, he was gone.
