Dark Legacy - Interlude 1
By Iwa

Late night

Southtown Pier

A full moon night and the winds were blowing strongly. The moon hung bright in the cloudless sky as the sea crashes endlessly upon the breakwater.

Terry sat at the pier casting his fishing line into the choppy sea once again. These few days were slow. He wished that the Inner Circle had assigned him to Shadowlaw instead of letting XiangFei be attached there. After all there is always some kind excitement going on the Shotoken-Wushu dojo. With Geese gone for the moment things in Southtown is strangely peaceful.

Terry passed a bottle of ice cold beer to Ryo who sigh as well. His sister Yuri was assigned to Shotoken-Wushu dojo while he was here. He jerked his line reeling up the fish he caught. After unhooking it he toss the fish back into the sea. "Too small." He mumbled.

Ryo then accepted the rice cake from Kyo who sat beside him. It was the school holidays for Kyo and he was here in Southtown attached to the Kusanagi Corporation branch here. He had heard that Iori was around. Maybe his 'old friend' could be able to help him in ridding this boredom. Carried by the howling wind was the sound of two spine-chilling howls. Kyo smiled.

"That's Iori alright. I can recognise that howl anywhere." Kyo mumbled as he baited the hook.

"Who's the other one?" Ryo asked

"Leona. They're both howling at the moon. It's the Oruchi blood in them." Kyo shrugged and the three returned to their fishing. The howling continued on Sound beach as the moon hung high in the sky.
