Ep1 – A Swordsman’s Destiny

A rainy night, the silence broken by thunder without lighting. On the rooftop of a building Tanya lands with her sword in her hand and starts running. A few feet behind her, Maverick and Terry were trying to keep up. They run towards Marcus and Zane who were ardently fighting with their swords on the rooftop of the building in front of them.
“Where are Navaro and Magnus?” Tanya asked.
“Magnus said he’s on his way with Josey but I haven’t been able to contact Navaro,” Terry answered.
“We can handle these guys without’m!” Maverick boasted.
Tanya remained silent and kept running till the edge of the building but when they tried to jump to the next one, they had to parry blows coming from three opponents. They all landed on the streets and prepared for a confrontation
In front of them ready to fight were Vincent, Gorgon and Yorin. They were smiling but not because they wanted to fight, it seemed that there was more on their minds. Tanya did not waste time on words and charged them with her sword but was met by Yorin, while Gorgon and Vincent attacked the others two.
After Tanya blocked an attack from Yorin she ran up the side of the building a few feet, then jumped and rotated in the air and charged up her sword.
“Maverick, let’s go!” she shouted while she was still airborne.
Maverick got away from Vincent and after getting Terry out of the way by throwing him on top of a van, he waited for Tanya to get right next to him.
“Ready?” she asked.
“As always, sugar,” he replied smiling.
Both their swords started glowing. Sparks were coming out of Lightning Strike that started vibrating while Tanya’s A Thousand Cuts was covered in blue waves as if covered in water. Their three opponents started shaking and looked nervous and when the two weapons were ready to strike, they tried to run off but were hit by the two energy beams that came from them. The one from Maverick’s looked like a lightning bolt, as its name suggested while the one from Tanya was like hundreds of tiny blades that rushed towards them. When their attack stopped, the three opponents were on the ground unconscious.
“I told you we could handle it,” Maverick said putting his sword back in its sheath.
“You didn’t have to throw me so hard,” Terry complained with an annoyed look on his face.
Tanya wasted no time in running into the building and going up the stairs. At a few feet away from the door that led to the rooftop she heard a scream that sent a chill through her body. When she opened the door she screamed as she saw that Marcus was on the ground with a large wound in his abdomen that was bleeding heavily. Zane was sitting on a ventilation shaft looking at the stars a few feet away from him. Tanya ran to Marcus and picked up his head with her left hand, while putting her right hand on the wound, trying to stop the bleeding. A few seconds after that, Maverick and Terry appeared and were about to fight Zane when he said:
“This fight is over,” and jumped off the roof.
Tanya was crying over Marcus’ body but he managed to smile at her and put the back of his right hand on her cheek.
“Don’t cry, my dear. My death will only bring about a brighter future to which my successor will lead the way,” Marcus said smiling with blood dripping out of his mouth.
“Don’t you dare die on me! Our wedding is next week!” she said sobbing.
“Look’s like… we’ll have to cancel…” he said then closed his eyes for the last time.
A few moments after he closed his eyes, his sword, Diamond Edge levitated several metres above them, glowed bright blue and disappeared.
In another part of the city, Casey was walking home wearing a raincoat and carrying grocery bags. He was walking fast because of the terrible wind. He finally reached his home, a small house with two stories, a small garden and a wooden fence surrounding it. He entered the house and was greeted by three children, two boys and one girl who were jumping up and down around him.
“Alright, you guys! Take it easy!” Casey said going into the kitchen putting the bags on a table. “Have you guys finished your chores?”
“I did!” Andy said.
“So did I!” Max added. “But Dana didn’t take out the trash.”
“But it was heavy,” Dana complained.
“Alright, alright… you guys take care of these, I’ll take the trash out,” he said picking up the black trash bag.
He walked outside, covering his head with the hood of the raincoat and after putting the bag in the trash can, turned around and was going to go back inside when he heard a voice say: “You are chosen.”
A bright light shined behind him and when he turned around he saw a large sword with a golden handle and a blue blade floating in mid air.
“What the…?” he asked surprised.
The sword floated towards him and his hand reached out and grabbed it as if it was drawn by it and the moment he touched it a surge of energy went through his entire body. He floated in mid air for a few seconds then fell on the ground. When he got up he heard the same voice as before say: “I am Diamond Edge and from this day forth, you are my Swordsman.”

Ep2 – A mysterious power

The next morning the suns rays woke Casey up, he found himself in his room, lying on the bed, still wearing the raincoat from last night. Next to him, on the bed, the sword that came to him the night before. He picked it up and looked at it confused.
‘What happened last night?’ he said to himself.
He waited for it to respond as it did the previous night. When it didn’t he asked himself: ‘Was it only a dream? Where did you come from?’
After taking off both the raincoat and the clothes he had slept in he went to the bathroom and took a shower. He looked dizzy and his memories from the previous night were still hazy.
He changed his clothes then went downstairs and found that his younger brothers had already made him breakfast that consisted of two sandwiches and a glass of orange juice. He was silent while he ate and smiled from time to time when the others looked at him.
After breakfast he walked his siblings to school, then went straight to work at the bike shop. As he walked towards the front door he noticed that there was a note on it. The note read: <I’ll be gone for a while. Take care of the shop while I’m gone. I’m counting on you, Case!>
“Oh not again,” Casey complained.
He took the note off and entered the shop. After changing into his already stained overall he started working on one of the bikes there. All the time he kept thinking over what had happened to him.
‘That sword spoke to me, that much I’m sure of.
It said its name… was Diamond Edge.
I’ve never heard of swords having names, except for Excalibur.
Must have been a weird dream, did me good, though.
I’ve never felt so full of energy before.’
After work he went to a dojo just down the street from where he worked. There he changed into the traditional clothes and started exercising with a wooden sword. Something felt very natural to him about holding that weapon in his hand and his movements were more skilled than before. He also attracted the attention of a few other students there, one of which had always picked on him.
“Hey hot shot! How about facing a real opponent? Or do you think you can’t handle me… again?” the student said mockingly.
 “Give me your best shot!” Casey said with a confident smile on his face.
The other student took a sword from the rack and attacked Casey who blocked it with incredible ease. He pushed him back but the student came at him again with a fierce look on his face but Casey managed to block that attack as well. That time Casey didn’t waste time and he immediately pushed the student back and then landed a blow to his head that made him fall to the ground. He then pointed his sword at him and said with a proud smirk on his face: “Yield.”
The student dropped the sword and looked disappointed and angry. The others started cheering Casey but he was still in shock after defeating one of the best students in the dojo. Going home he felt different as if something was changing inside him and he kept looking at the sky.
When he got home he made dinner for his siblings and after eating he went up to his room and stared at the sword. He took a magnifying glass out of a desk and started examining it but he didn’t know what he was looking for. Less than an hour later he was asleep at his desk.
In another part of town, on a rooftop, Tanya sat on the edge looking at the star-filled sky. Maverick and Magnus walked up to her but she didn’t turn around.
“Has the new Swordsman been found?” she asked.
“Not yet,” Magnus answered.
“Are we even sure Diamond Edge has found a new owner yet?” Maverick asked.
“You know the Dakkai don’t waste time in finding a new owner. We have to find him before the others do if we don’t want them to find him first.”
While he was still asleep, the sword on Casey’s desk started glowing and outside his window Zane, hidden by darkness, stood on the rooftop looking at him.
On the ground Vincent was waiting for him to come down and when he landed he asked: “Is it him?”
“Yes. Go to him tomorrow, see what you can do.”
