Can Shiro defeat the oni? Or at least escape with Sakura?
slay it at a price
“Sakura,” Shiro said quickly. “When you see me move, you immediately head for the door, moving on your left. Understand?”
“Y-yes…”
“Good!” Shiro bolted suddenly for the oni’s right side, the ogre raising its club to strike back at her. It was a clumsy attempt, but even as it pulled back it saw Sakura moving.
“Eyy!” it grumbled dimly, turning its swing awkwardly to try and hit the peasant instead. It lost interest quickly in Shiro as her feet hit the wall of the shack, just sturdy enough to uphold her feminine figure as she leaned against it, tilting the shack just slightly as the oni turned for Sakura.
Concentrating on that very moment, she kicked off the wall and spun, bringing her sword’s edge into the back of the oni’s head. It gave a great bellow, heaving bodily forward and crashing down on its enormous chest. Blood spilled from its messy white hair, where the blade had struck. Almost instantly after, the blade made a cracking sound and Shiro’s katana snapped off near the hilt. The girls caught their breath and watched the oni for any signs of life, then the sword.
“I’m sorry,” Sakura said meekly.
“It’s alright,” Shiro assured her calmly. “It was a sturdy weapon, but I’m not surprised that it broke in a task like that. It can be repaired, but frankly I could use another anyway…”
She carefully picked up the blade and slid it into her sheathe, capping it with the handle and the fragment of blade. She kicked the big oaf, content that it was down and out as it continued to bleed. It wasn’t like her weapon could finish it now that it was shattered anyway.
“Let’s get you out of here,” Shiro said calmly, taking Sakura by the shoulders and guiding her promptly away from the scene of demons and ****.
Where do they go? Travel away, get Sakura home? Or does the beast somehow survive its wounds?
