7th Moon

“Now I am become Death, Destroyer of Worlds.” - Bhagavad Gita 


Hidariude was immediately overcome with anger. Standing before him was the man who was responsible for all the hardship in his life. This man was responsible for World War III, the death of his parents, and almost started World War IV. Without a moment’s hesitation he raised his sword and brought it down on Han Toromi’s head. 


Hidariude’s sword was blocked by another blade. Han Toromi was holding his left arm up, a cyber-blade extended from his forearm. Desperately, Hidariude let go of the sword with his left hand, pulled back, extended the cyber blade and stabbed at Han’s stomach. Again, the blade was blocked; Han now had a cyber-blade from his right arm to deflect the blow.
