I took my next step to go over to Jasmine, the loudest sound I have ever heard reached my ears... right from behind me. My eyes widened as I saw Jasmine's head gushed blood, right from the center point of her forehead. I couldn't hear anything, I couldn't feel anything, the only thing I could see was Jasmine's face twisting into surprise. She collapsed to the ground with an ugly thud and I remembered seeing the Sailors rushing to Jasmine's aid. Then like someone flipping on a switch, the sound came back on, as I heard... laughter. It wasn't like Dōgen's, where it was loud and full of air. No, this one was breathless and insane, without a pattern and without reason. I looked back, and saw Ryona, her weapon still up and smoking. Her arm was still semi shaking and when she spoke, her voice trembled, "I-I c-can't believe it! I-I-I can't believe it!" Ryona pinched herself and moaned. "Well, that hurt! So this really is real! Are you saying that I actually killed Mistress Sayuri!?" I soon saw Ryōbi run past me, "What the hell! You stupid bitch! Do you realize what you've just done!?" Ryōbi was struggling not to cry, and Ryona nodded, "Yes, I killed Mistress Sayuri with a bullet to her brain. It all happened so fast, my panties are still moist from it, but it's all happening like Master Dōgen said it would! Of course, I was a little disbelieving when he said that I would pull the trigger." Ryōbi's eyes widened, "Master Dōgen?" Ryona just chuckled and it was unlike anything I've ever heard before. "You really haven't figured it out? And you called me the stupid bitch." Suddenly, the other Shinobi Sailors had surrounded Ryona, weapons all drawn. Some of them looked like they had been crying. Ryōbi stared in disbelief, her head slowly shaking, "N-No. It can't be! Are you telling me that you're...." Ryona placed her hands behind her body, "Yes I am! I'm one of the bearers of the Shadow Mark. Yagyu and my team are gonna change the world!" Tears fell down Ryōbi's face, "H-How could you!? How could you kill Mistress Sayuri!?
