Kei'taro chewed and swallowed the dried meat, his senses picking up the approaching figure. As the man neared, Kei'taro noticed the staff he carried with him. [B]"Did [i]he[/i] send you, then?"[/b] Kei'taro asked, indicating his father, who had been sending people after him for weeks now. It only served to increase the ire Kei'taro had for the Spirit Beast King, Rosuto. 

Raising his hand in a 'wait' gesture, he rose from his seat against the grave and motioned at their environment. [B]"Go back to your order, tell them you defeated me, you tested me, and I failed."[/b] His right hand swam to his sword and gripped the hilt. The RyuKyuan spirit animal growled heavily in his mind, warning Kei'taro about the mysterious purple energy that surrounded the man. 

Kei'taro slid back a step, and noted the aura that flowed around the man. He didn't know what the abilities of the man were, but the expending of aura this early meant that the man wouldn't be walking away anytime soon. Kei'taro, ever the survivalist, studied the distance between him and the man approaching. His would be opponent maintained a steady ten or so feet away from him. That mattered very little as Kusanagi could extend ten times that amount in a second. 

As he slipped into a more battle ready state, he slid a step to his opponents left, and prepared for the worst.

[I]'I blame you, RyuKyu, I blame you.'[/i]
