Ninja Vixens: Crimson Blades Page #2

Not really.

I know you have a crush on Dragon.

You threw the throwing knife

at me earlier.

No!

This is what you want.

I don't want it!

This potion has been handed down

only in the family of the ninja masters.

If you betray me, you won't get this

any longer.

Don't forget our goal.

Once I get promoted, I'll see

what I can do about Dragon.

Go!

And...?

He got away... thanks to your potion!

I'm sorry.

Sorry about that.

Now everyone has fallen into my trap...

Dragon, you have a crush on

Shinobu, don't you?

Why do you say that?

We're both disciples. That's impossible.

Just impossible!

Are you sure? That's not

how it looks to me.

Don't be ridiculous!

By the way, Dragon,

you know that the Master is

critically ill.

We don't know if his first son, Togen,

or his second son, Toji, will take over.

Rumor has it that your father will

side with Toji.

What will you do?

To me the Master is someone

above the clouds, so...

I have no clue.

I want to move up the ladder.

I wanna be among master ranks

at all costs.

It's tragic about you and Shinobu

only because you are disciples.

Isn't that true?

Don't label it tragic just yet!

Why? Why is Hanji here?

Stop it, Maple!

Let's run. We have no chance

against Shinobu.

I don't know what you want to

squeeze out of her,

but we can't capture her alive.

Why?

How come Hanji's presence

doesn't bother you?

He was sent in by the Master...

The Master?

Nothing. I know nothing!

Tell me!

Why?

If you don't tell me, I'll kill you

right here.

The Master assigned him.

Why?

You know how Shinobu is.

Shinobu was an orphan and

she's afraid of being abandoned.

And she can't abandon those

who need her.

Hanji was sent in to keep Shinobu

from fleeing.

The Master didn't trust me then.

Damn it!

Dragon!

The signal stone was moved...

Shinobu...

It wasn't you?

Dragon.

Please. Run away with me.

Why...?

Why doesn't he understand?

If we don't do anything about it...

Dragon!

Hanji, we should get going.

To where?

We can't stay here any longer.

But...

Don't worry. I won't abandon you.

I'll go get some herbs.

Get ready before I return.

Dragon!

So I guess I can't beat you just yet.

'Cause you get distracted too much.

You recognized the signal.

I swear that the signal pointed

toward the little statue.

Are you saying someone moved

the stone?

Did you kill my subordinates?

Yes.

It ended up saving Hanji

from the attack.

I hear Hanji was sent in to

keep an eye on you.

You mean they killed those disciples

for that?

I'm a group leader and

they don't tell me anything.

Let alone disciples...

I don't know any more.

How can I trust you now, Dragon?

I don't know.

If Hanji was sent in by the Master,

why didn't he kill me?

He had opportunities.

Did you sleep with him?

He secretly gave me a potion.

That doesn't surprise me.

I don't know what to believe.

Dragon.

I wanted to find out myself...

if you really killed my father.

If I can't trust anyone,

I'll take a chance and believe you.

Dragon...

Stop!

I'm a group leader,

Dragon of the Gathering Clouds.

What the hell are you doing?

- They're not up for a talk. Ready?

- Yeah.

Why you! Only if you didn't exist...

Stop! I don't wanna kill anyone!

I thought I had gotten rid of you!

You moved the stone...

Right. Dragon is mine.

Maple, stop it!

Why did you do it without my order?

I asked you why!

Why did you do it on your own?

You probably tried to let Dragon escape.

You've already served your purpose.

I'll put in ten pills of this potion.

It'll drive you insane and kill you.

What a pity to be a disciple.

But I'm different!

I'm just a disciple after all.

Don't say that.

I can't make sense of anything now.

Dragon, you decide.

Let's run away. Enough is enough.

Follow me.

Yes. I will follow you.

Here.

Yeah.

Don't lose it. Hold onto it.

Thank you.

What were you going to say

when you gave this to me?

It doesn't matter anymore.

What is it?

The can. Wanna come with me?

Come on.

You said you'd follow me.

Go wherever you want.

Dragon.

What is it?

I wanted to make sure you're there.

Don't be silly.

Sorry!

What would you do if I vanished?

What kind of question is that?

I'm still not strong enough

to protect you.

I'll protect you, Dragon.

So, don't say anything like that!

You don't doubt me, huh?

Don't even go there. Stop joking

and hurry back.

About your question earlier...

Huh? Yeah...?

Dragon?

What's the matter?

Hurry back, Dragon!

Answer me!

What's the matter, Dragon?

Dragon?!

Dragon!

Dragon!

What happened, Dragon?

Dragon!

Dragon!

You bastard, Dragon!

Dragon!

Dragon!

I'll make you regret

teasing me like this.

Dragon, are you prepared to die?

Shinobu...?

Dragon.

Why? Why...?

Hanji cast a spell on him.

Shinobu... I win.

I won't let you have Dragon.

Now, let's go.

Dra... gon...

No! Don't die!

Shinobu... don't cry.

We can't defy destiny after all.

It all began...

when I wrongly thought...

you killed...

my father.

Say no more! It's all right.

We'll be together from now on.

It's all my fault because

I didn't fully trust you.

No. It's because I didn't

trust you fully.

It's no one's fault.

It's destiny.

Unless the rules change, our destiny

doesn't change either.

We are disciples after all.

Dragon.

The amulet...

In the next world...

I promise I'll find you.

This will serve as a marker

to find you then.

Promise me...

you'll keep this with you.

I'll... protect you.

Dragon.

Dragon.

Dragon.

Dragon!

At last, you're injured.

I planned to have you and Dragon

kill each other from the get-go.

And Maple, who knew too much.

You bastard!

They could've done a good job though.

But, all is well now. I'll be promoted

into the ranks of the masters.

I wonder how much longer

you can fight with that wound.

I'll never forgive you!

Kill her!

Hanji!

Master!

Master?

The potion...

Feels good?

Don't get away.

Are you awake now?

You are...

Right. I'm the head

of the village, Togen.

Why?

Because the most competent ninja

might have sided with my brother.

I used Maple and Hanji to set it up

so that you were forced to flee.

Why did you save me when I was

about to die on the road then?

To add a final touch.

Final touch?

It wasn't fellows of the magistrate,

not disciples, that were killed.

They were remnants of the loyalists

to my younger brother!

What?!

Thanks to you, they're all wiped out

and my position is secure.

I no longer need dangerous tools.

That includes you, Dragon and Maple.

You animal!

Oh? You can still move?

Are you looking for this?

For the last time, enjoy it.

Don't!

You're being awfully meek.

It's hard to believe you are

the strongest woman in the village.

Please stop.

Dragon...

Help me.

Since you're about to die,

I'll tell you a secret.

I killed your parents too.

And I had you raised as a child

that no one needed.

That's why you can't say no to

anyone who needs you...

just like you couldn't say no to
