The demon army entries...

WHO: 'Shutendoji', whoever wants to fight him and his army
WHAT: Some more fighting, brainwashing, possible hypnosis and everything
WHERE: Nagashino
WARNING(S): There are not any yet... probably angst?

['Shutendoji' had taken position inside the castle walls of Nagashino. He had kept the doors of the mainkeep carelessly open - he didn't see any need to lock himself into them. Plus it wasn't like he intended to stay in there all the time. On top of it, he wasn't only accompanied by Orochi's demons, but the ones from his own world as well - the ones he had made drink the 'sentan', a medicine that strengthen the demons and bring out their deepest and ugliest feelings.

And this was still not all. Kiyomori had given him another few henchmen. Famous warriors that were under his control now.]

((ooc: Feel free to toss up brainwashed characters in here, and if you want to fight 'Shutendoji', he has several abilities that go along the lines of hypnosis with words, looking into people's mind to see secrets even they might not be aware of and he can warp time and space. Just give me a heads-up if you want to fight against any of those powers or how far it is okay with you that he uses them on your character!))

[Shutendoji sighs a little, but there was a point - he had to call them back quickly. As long as they were still listening to him.]

Yes, I will.

[He looks down at her, offering a hand to her in case she needs help to stand up.]

[that's enough of an agreement for Zhao Yun!]

Come, Lord Saitou, let us get Lord Yukimura to the healers. Lady Oichi...

[he just gives her a sort of smile, sort of pleading look, a nonverbal thank you combined with worry that she might be risking a lot more remaining alone with Shutendoji]

[After nodding to Zhao Yun, she turns her attention back to Shutendoji. Hopefully the other two can sort out their injured friend, but at present she has other matters to attend to herself.

She takes the hand that Shutendoji offers her and uses it to help get to her feet. Though she's a little unsteady, it's nothing terrible, which she is grateful for.]

Thank you. Please, Shutendoji-- speak with Lord Shingen. That is all I ask.

There wouldn't be much point to let you run if I didn't intend to do that.

[He sighs once again. Between Kiyomori and the humans he wasn't entirely sure what was the better choice. But one thing he had realized at this moment - helping Kiyomori felt a lot like what their ancestors had done back in the past to expell them from the oni in the first place. Though interacting with humans was a reason to expell them as well. In the end it probably didn't matter much what they were doing.

He averts his eyes a little, but he also tries to make sure that she won't fall on the ground - not without him being able to catch her in time if it happened.]

Senkimaru.

Senkimaru...? Is that your real name?

[She pauses for a moment, mulling it over. Really, she realises that it must be a huge sacrifice for him to do this, and to put so much trust in a person like her. But Oichi is glad that he's decided to reach out, even if it's only temporary.]

It's nice to meet you, then. My name is Oichi. Wife of Azai Nagamasa, sister of Oda Nobunaga.

Yes, that's my real name.

[Of course he is still a bit hesitant - he has just met her, after all. That he had chosen the name 'Shutendoji' for himself didn't come out of nowhere either, considering the connection of his clan to the famous demon.

He manages a weak smile when she tells him her name, though.]

I know. I have just seen it, after all.

I know, but it's better to introduce ourselves properly, isn't it? After all, you just gave me your real name.

[She can't help but smile in return.]

If you say so.

[He grins a little. She was really trying to play nice, huh? He knew he had said before that there wasn't any other choice for them, but perhaps... perhaps he could really believe in this.]

Then... Takeda Shingen, where is he?

He is back at the main camp. It might take a while to return there, but it will be all right. Just follow me.

Alright.

[He hesitates a moment.]

Is he really ready to accept us as allies?

I do not see why he wouldn't. The resistance army has many different people in it, and not all are human either.

Is that right? With whom are you working, aside the humans?

There are some from the mystic realm as well

The mystic realm, huh? Will they be fine to work with anything like oni?

I don't see why not. [She smiles a little.]

To be honest, it took some time for them to warm to humans as well.

[Senkimaru could see them easily looking down on them. The rogue part wouldn't be really helping either. Somehow the more he thought about it the more it seemed like this had been a bad idea.

But he still wanted to take this one chance.]

I see. How about you? I doubt your friends will so easily forgive me.

Forgive you for what...? There is nothing to be forgiven.

Nothing to be forgiven? Did I not make friends fight each other?

It was not your fault - it was Kiyomori's. He too was using you, and we will make sure he pays for that.

[He could just hope the other people would be as understanding.]

Paying for it, huh? Well, he doesn't seem like the type who can be convinced.

[But paying for it somehow didn't really sit right with him.]

If we cannot convince him through normal means, then we will find another way.

Another way? I doubt force will work.

Most likely not, but there must be something. And I am sure we won't give up until we find it.

I suppose that is why you are an idiot.

[His words are harsh, but he smiles. That she could still be so optimistic despite her experience...]

A-an idiot?!

[That made her frown.] I'll just have to prove you wrong, won't I?
