Requiem of Destruction (1x1 with DarkMudkip)

"That's why you're here. To learn. Pick something out and we'll get started." Mitsunari replied. Hidemune smiled softly, "It'll be ok...you'll do great...!"
 
Minehime made a face, moving over to the rack full of weapons; it felt weird for a weapon to be wielding a weapon, but she picked out a tanto, turning to face Mitsunari.
 
Hidemune stood at the side to watch, still smiling to show his encouragement. Mitsunari stood a few feet away from Minehime and took a stance before suddenly disappearing, reappearing beside Minehime with his blade drawn.
 
Minehime barely registered that Mitsunari was gone before he appeared again beside her. Spinning to face him once again, she brought her blade up on instinct; but it did little to quell the fear that burned in her chest.
 
The small girl struggled to keep his blade at bay, he was much bigger and more experienced than she was, and on top of that, she had never used a blade until that very moment. Sweat gathered on her forehead as she tried to push back, straining hard.
 
He moved back and swung at her, his blade damn near impossible to see; all that could be seen were purple streaks where his blade once was. Hidemune gulped, "Maybe you should be a little easier on her, Mitsunari-sama?" He asked but it fell to deaf ears.
 
Minehime was forced to stumble backwards, nearly falling onto her butt many times as she did her best to deflect his blade, but it was in vain. Each time he swung, a cut opened up on her person, either tearing her clothes or leaving a clean cut on her skin. One swing was two much for her to deflect however. Her tanto skittered across the floor and she stumbled backwards with a cry. Something else skittered across the ground, and droplets of blood fell from Minehime's head where she clutched at her head. Blood seeped through her fingers and she sat in stunned silence, staring at her horn that lay at Mitsunari's feet.
 
Hidemune gasped and tried to intervene, "That's enough, don't you think, Mitsunari-sama?" He called. Mitsunari glanced at the horn before looking back at Minehime, "She can still fight." He stated. Hidemune scowled, "No, really, I think that's enough! She's just a-!" "She is a weapon. She'll work until she breaks."
 
Tears blurred Minehime's vision, making her unable to see the horn on the ground in front of her. Then the rage inside of her started to burn. Her pupils changed from ovals to thin lines, her face twisted into a snarl of rage and she let out an ear piercing wail as she sprung to her feet. Without even retrieving her weapon she attack Mitsunari. Three deep gashed opened up going through his shoulder and down his chest to the opposite hip, allowing blood to gush from the harsh and jagged wounds.
 
Mitdunari was caught off guard and was thusly sent tumbling backward from the attack. Hidemune's eyes widened and he rushed to try and stop her as guards swarmed her to seize her.
 
Minehime evaded the first couple of guards, tearing open a few more nasty wounds on Mitsunari's chest before she was tackled off of him. She hissed and spat like a rabid animal, letting out screams of rage as blood leaked from the spot where her horn had been. Mitsunari had cut it low enough that it actually bled, getting the blood in her eyes.
 
Minehime thrashed a couple more times before her pupils became oval in shape once more, and she soon stopped thrashing, but the tears didn't stop.
 
"Are you ok...?" "Stay away from her, Hidemune-sama." One of the guards said. Hidemune scowled and knelt before Minehime, "Does it hurt, Minehime-dono...?"
 
Minehime looked up at Hidemune, blinking tears from her eyes and she nodded. "It hurts.. it hurts so much..!"
 
"We'll get you treated, don't worry.." He said gently before looking to thebguards, "Take her to the medical wing." "But...Hidemune-sama..." They looked unsure. Hidemune glared, "Take her to the medical wing." He repeated firmly. They nodded hesitantly and pulled her along. Hidemune smiled softly, "I'll be there soon, don't worry!" He called.
 
Minehime stumbled along after the guards, whimpering softly in pain and out of worry. She didn't take her eyes off of Hidemune until they rounded the corner and left his sight.
 
After a while during her stay in the medical wing, Mitsunari was brought in for treatment. He was barely conscious, but thankfully would live. Minehime's missing horn was treated with antiseptic, after oinning the girl down to clean the wound, and her head was wrapped in gauze.
 
Minehime was glad Mitsunari was unconscious, she was pretty sure if he wasn't he'd try to strangle her the moment he saw her. Her whole head throbbed, the center of the pain being the small stump of a horn she had on the right side of her head.
 
Minehime shook her head no as she hopped down from the infirmary bed, moving to the door and opening it. She gave Mitsunari one last glance before scurrying out and off to find Hidemune.
 
No hide nor hair could be found of the older boy, almost like he had vanished from the face of the earth. An odd, lanky man wrapped head to toe in bandaging and gauze was limping down the hall with the aid of a cane, his body shaking with effort.
 
Minehime wrung her hands nervously, shooting a couple of glances at the man before she finally spoke up, but did not approach him. "A-Ano... Have you seen Hidemune-sama..?" She asked quietly.
 
He stopped and looked back carefully, as if moving caused him great pain, "Oh, yes...he's being punished at the moment. He may be a while.." He answered.
