Cai Kang was meditating. He has been training his newfound abilities but he is now focusing on unlocking the seventh chakra point. Unlike the past ones, this one requires something from him. It is to rid himself of earthly desires and gain spiritual harmony. It is also an out of body experience. It isn't something he needs to rid himself of but rather pure sincerity and also something about an out of body experience. It takes a while for a normal person to unlock all seven because the last one is the hardest. But after some thought, he realized that with his soul and his past lives, his status as the Black Dragon as well as the an impending crisis, how much sincerity would he need? He has heard stories of those who unlock their full power during battle, maybe the same thing might happen to him but it's better safer than sorry to at least try. He felt his own chi reaching the seventh point and his mind went blank for a moment before opening them to Qinghai's Black Mountain. He heard c
Warning: suicide and death mention Laughter and small praises, baby talk, cries, light, toys, a soothing and familiar scent, a warm embrace, a smile "It is better to think she has abandoned you. It is less painful that way." "What will you do when you do find her? She wouldn't want to come back even if you're her son." Kurai opened his eyes while laying down on a lounge chair, deep in thought. He prides himself on remembering any smell since birth. This is one of them but he never brags about it. During his monthly rampages, he dreams of it and that is all the details he could get. His mother. Unlike his old man, he held no grudges against her. People keep saying that she abandoned him but a lot of things contradict their claims. He heard approaching footsteps and saw Cai Kang. "Get up. We're going to find the white dragon." Kurai looked up in disbelief. No one ever discussed anything about the White Dragon except that she's a girl and they've been so busy with their own busine
Warning: mention of sexual assault After Kurai asked Hoshino to draw him his past, he and Cai Kang left the room leaving her to her work. "You know, you may not like what you hear." Cai Kang said. Kurai shrugged. "I heard worse. The worst thing I could hear is that my mom is dead." "And if she's not?" Kurai is mentally unsure and his expressions do not escape Cai Kang. "I don't know." he admits before finding the others. They are all training in the courtyard. Upon noticing them, they stopped. "That went on longer than expected." Xianliang said before smirking. "The locals said that you two became quite strong. We saw you fly earlier. What other moves did you get?" "You really wanna try?" Xianliang nodded excitedly. Cai Kang then motion him to come forward. Xianliang ran towards him to make the first move but the the ground protrude and grabbed him by the ankles, letting him fall on the ground. "What the?" he saw his feet are stuck. Effortlessly, he broke through and free
Cai Kang read through the three volumes of his formerly favorite manga. He saw the Chinese southern isles, the sudden kidnapping of girls in their school as well as the rescue, the prophecy of Wings but worded differently. To explain the premise, Purple Dawn is about a new era of an entire generation who develop superpowers and created groups or gangs who use their abilities. The main character and his group all decide to fight for their independence against the government who has nefarious plans for them. The manga may mirror their lives but the plot, character names and anything that references real life is completely different but the clues are there to figure out. There is one part where Cai Kang got the prophecy in real life was replaced by Kazuha receiving it instead. After finding out that the other versions of everyone, he spend all night laughing and making fun of everyone and everything in the manga. Daisuke is stupid, playfully reckless and impulsive who likes to annoy th
Both Kurai and Cai Kang are unsure on what to make of this. The girl on the other hand is quite enthusiastic. "You called her Run'er. I thought she has no name." Cai Kang said, hesitantly sitting on his seat. What is with this Alice tea party nonsense? he thought. "That is her name, of course." "I thought Ignorance aren't allowed to have one." Kurai said with suspicious eyes. "They are not allowed to have mortal names every time they reincarnate." the figure said pouring tea and handed the cups to them. "That doesn't mean she doesn't need to be referred to the name of her first life even when she's only half a soul." The girl ate and sipped her tea with surprisingly good manners. "She's not scared of me at all." Kurai noted while stuffing his mouth. "I had to temporarily erase her fear of you when we're in here. Besides it is a dream, she is well mannered in her dreams than in real life." then he stopped for a brief moment before talking, "We're supposed to meet Avoidance as wel
Kazuha drank the tea and is surprised by the taste and covered her mouth in surprise. "Wow, you're right. This is really good." she puts down the cup. "So this is what the legendary tea of the gods taste like. I never thought I would ever try this.""No kidding." Nuying said while stuffing her mouth with a pastry. "If I were you, I would've hoard it all. You don't seem like the type to share." she said.Kurai smirked with pride. "Well, we are all gonna need it. You might as well try something good before we all die." he joked but the girls didn't find that funny."Sorry," he quickly apologized."I'm surprised you invited me. You and I don't exactly have had a casual conversation in a while." Kazuha said while taking a sip."Actually there is something I need to talk to you about. I met the benefactor." he said."Really? Who does he look like?""Just some british explorer who looks like he's from Tarzan.""Tarzan?" Nuying bemused."British explorer?" Kazuha repeated."It's just a disgu
Cai Kang is currently practicing martial arts on a cliff, overlooking the valley with only the full moon serving as her source of light. By the cliff was a large river, wide enough to go on a nice boating trip. Cai Kang is a young girl at around seventeen. She wore martial arts clothes native to the Qing dynasty. Her braid sways along to her swift and sudden movements. In the distance, it looks like a graceful dance in the moonlight. But it was a warm up before she can actually begin training. In the darkness, a man suddenly ambushed her from the bushes. She dodged his first attack sheepishly like she had expected him and fought him off for a while until she fell off the cliff. The girl quickly did a flip and landed on top of the water with the soles of her feet without getting a drop on her. She look at the cliff with a glare while the man looks down on her, unimpressed. "I win." The man chuckled arrogantly. He is a middle aged man with chiseled features, a freshly shaved goatee, an
The Shiratori family are in the common room waiting in anticipation. It is the day when Cai Kang is supposed to arrive. They heard the story of their father's friend from China; Changming, who will bring his son to Japan and one of the girls will end up as his fiancee. The truth is that while the entire clan has been aware of it, that doesn't mean they are entirely happy about it. There are plenty of suitors of desirable and more powerful families who would suit their daughters as marriage partners. But it has come to a standstill. A young girl at the table was visibly excited. She is wearing a formal turquoise kimono with temari designs on the skirt. She has her chestnut colored hair into a bun and tied with a temari hairpin to hold it up. She has a silver swan crest on the back of her kimono, depicting their clan's crest. "Did you seriously have to over dress yourself like this?" The boy next to her irritably said, He is wearing casual clothes and has the same chestnut colored hair
