After training with his sword, Teraku left the Dojo, walking towards the hallways near the Court. The hallways were crowded, he could heard a conversation about a former Shogun of the Blood Dragons who had been arrested when he came to Kyoto.
Teraku kept looking for a Rising Sons' member in order to ask him about the 'visitor'.
Shogun Sum-Gok-Li looked over the prison logs. There had been no requests to see Akuji, the former Shogun. Whoever might have been a supporter of his was keeping a low profile at the moment.
Shogun Gok-Li thought that Akuji had sweated for long enough. He sent for the guards to bring him in to Sum's chambers.
Akuji was not obliged to be bound, being formerly of the Shogunate. He was escorted in, bowed to Shogun Gok-Li and took a seat in front of Sum's desk.
Sum spoke "Welcome Akuji, the Taishogun is most interested in hearing an account of your time in abstentia."
Sum leaned forward his hands clasped together "Now, where shall we begin?"
Kintaki walked towards the Dragon guards at the enterence to the Court.
"Is it true? Akuji has returned? It has been to long. He just disappeared without a word. What was his motives for this?....Sorry i shouldn't be babbling on. Where is he being kept?"
The guards looked towards Shogun Kintaki.
"My Lord he is in an audience with the honourable Sum-Gok-Li."
Sum took some time to pour himself a drink, then made a few adjustments to his corneas with a small medical device.
Sum's vision corrected, he replied to Akuji.
"Bakemono? Murderers and terrorists that may or may not actually exist? I was in a dogfight in New Tokyo with one who flew their flag, the former leaders of the Farmers, and Kusari 'war-hero' Zev Barak.
Seeing as you did not bring back his head as tribute to the Taishogun, I can assume he is still alive? So tell me Akuji-san, how is the dear old man?"
If what Sum said was meant to be a joke, his grim expression suggested that Dragons have a unique sense of humour...
Dressed in a freshly pressed and cleaned Order flight suit with a decorative sidearm on his waist, Commander Leigh steps into the Imperial Court and bows before the Taishogun.
"Greetings honourable Taishogun," he says, adding an Order salute for good measure.
"I come before you as the repesentative of the Order to be embedded within the Blood Dragons as set out by the treaty negotiated by Admiral D'Souza some time ago."
He hesitates slightly as he pulls a datapad from his belt.
"I would also ask for leave to speak with you on a matter that has recently come to my attention that may have a bearing on both Blood Dragon and Order operations in Kusari."
He hands the datapad to an aide who comes forward to collect the data. // see the PM I'm about to send to the shogunate account.
Quote:Dublin Miner: I am Gallic admiral earning money in Bretonia.
"This is all very intriguing - but who or what is behind all of this? I am a man of science, and fear only that which I cannot understand. The Consortium were never able to make any headway because they could not answer the fundamental question of identity. Enable my understanding Akuji-san, so that I might tell the Taishogun that you are still a Dragon at heart."
Hirosho Horatami stormed down the hallway towards Sum's guarded doors. He stopped outside the doorway, and showed his most serious face yet. The guards bowed, but would not move from the doors.
"Let me pass."
The guards looked at each other while shaking, not knowing what to do.
"Now."
They slowly stepped aside, allowing Horatami to enter. The shogun burst open the doors, more disappointed than ever. The two men turned to face Hirosho Horatami, and paused.
"Come Akuji, continue with whatever it was you were saying."
The shogun closed the doors once more, and stood against the walls starring coldly at the former shogun.
