Requiem of Destruction (1x1 with DarkMudkip)

((Huehuehue~~))

As Masamune took the tedious ride to Kai, he would randomly tell his horrid jokes to Megohime to keep her from getting bored. He actually liked talking to her, which seemed a little weird at first since she was a sword, but it didn't bother him so much. It was in the middle of one of these jokes that Masamune's horse suddenly reared back, giving a loud whinny of surprise. "My, look at you~ all cozy comfy buddy-buddy with your new sword~?" A woman stood in their path, dressed in fine black robes over a red gown. Masamune reached to unsheath the Dragon's Claw but the woman rose her hand quickly, flexing her fingers and watching as Masamune struggled to move his arm. "Wh-What the hell...?!"
 
With the sound of a shockwave, and a flash of light and Megohime was sent tumbling away from Masamune in her human form, looking just as shocked and horrified as Masamune; being forced to change her form was never something she had experienced before. Standing up she looked to Masamune, a scowl on her face before she looked to the woman who stood before them.
 
"Oh, I see~ how interesting~" Akihime moved toward Megohime with a sly smile, "And how is this neat little trick possible, hm~? Your dead master taught you something fun before he kicked the bucket~?"
 
Megohime's eyes went wide, and a pained expression formed on her face, taking a step back as Akihime approached her. "You know not which you speak of." She hissed angrily.
 
"Sweetheart, I know so much~ I know when he died, how he died, I know that he loved you so much that he wanted to hide you away so no other mortal could own you~" She gave a fake heartfelt pout as she placed her hand over her heart before smiling coyly at Masamune, "Guess that didn't work so well, did it, hun~?"
 
Tears began to swell in her eyes and her pained expression grew further, embarrassment mixing in with the sorrow in her eyes. She looked to Masamune, then away out of shame; she didn't want him to know any of this, she didn't even like to think about it, and now she was being stripped bare for him to see. "I-I..."
 
"Sshh~" Akihime waved her hand gently, using a small charm to ease her, "It's ok, little spirit~ you're safe now~"
"Get away from her!" Masamune used sheer force of will alone to break the spell that kept him frozen, jumping from his horse and rushing at Akihime. She glared and shot a ball of light at him, sending him flying backwards. His horse screamed and galloped away to hide.
 
Megohime could feel the panic rise in her chest as she watched Masamune be tossed back like a rag doll, but her body wouldn't react, an overwhelming calm keeping her in place.
 
Megohime was gone before Masamune's very eye, Akihime holding the Dragons Claw sheath and all in her hands; but even being seperated, Masamune could still just barely feel the soft hum of his sword.
 
He struggled to stand, grinding his teeth, "You just made a very deadly enemy." He hissed. Akihime only smiled as she held the sword close to her chest. "How cute~ all bark, no bite~ guess you really didn't want the Claw if all you're doing is baring your fangs." She stated. Masamune rushed forward at lightning speed, still having his broadsword at least. Akihime only smiled, not moving an inch. "Ama-chan. It's time to go."
 
Masamune was only two feet away from Akihime when a woman with long white hair seemed to materialize before him in a shimmering mist, arms outstretched for Akihime. Her hair seemed to wrap around the both of them, and in another plume of shimering mist like fog in the middle of the day, they were both gone.
 
Masamune tried to catch at least one of them with his sword but it passed through the mist harmlessly. He swore loudly, swinging his sword again and burying it into the trunk of a tree. He was shaking, furious beyond belief. He whistled and his horse came nervously trotting back. He ripped his sword from the tree and mounted up, kicking his horse into a top speed gallop. Whoever that woman was, he was going to find her and butcher her like cattle.
 
The next time Megohime registered her consciousness, she was shaking hard, and suspended a foot off the ground. Trying to move, she felt sharp points dig into her skin and catch on her clothes, not able to move an inch. Thorn brambles created a wall in a room she had never seen before, wrapped around every limb, entwined around her waist and chest, even bramble vines around her neck and horns. Her eyes went wild with terror and she started to thrash, but the vines Amaya had imbued with her magic didn't budge.
 
Megohime's panicked reptilian eyes darted to look at Akihime, pulling and struggling the very minuscule amount she could manage while trapped.
 
"I wouldn't do that. Ama-chan is a master of nature based magic. After a while, those brambles won't be so happy about your struggling." She suggested.
 
"Shut up!" Megohime tried her damnedest to revert into her sword form, but it only tired her out, and made her tremble harder. "What did you do to me..!?" She snarled after failing to change.
 
"Blocked off the magic that allows your transformations." She didn't look up from preparing various vials of different alchemy herbs, "I trust you don't mind?"
 
Megohime struggled so hard her dress tore, and the thorns dug into her skin. "Of course I damn mind!" She snapped. "Let me out!!" She screamed, not knowing where she was or how long she had been out, hoping someone would hear her.
 
Akihime sighed and moved over, grabbing Megohime's ankle firmly. Megohime's body began to ache and throb, her limbs feeling heavy. "I could suck every last drop of energy from you right now and leave you as nothing more than a rust covered shiv. Cooperate and I won't break you."
 
Instantly she felt nauseous, and on the verge of passing out; she didn't try to scream again, but half the reason was that she felt she couldn't physically do so. Glaring death at Akihime, Megohime did as she was told and quieted down.
 
"I don't know what you want... but you can't have it.." She muttered, watching Akihime intensely.
 
"Oh, but that's where you're wrong~" Akihime mixed some herbs together, "Aaaaall I have to do is force you back as a sword on my terms and then melt you down~"
