[Y/n] walks through the shrine, with its warm hues, and the smell of incense wafting through the air. She was holding a wooden tray, filled with offerings of sake and fruit for her master, Hanzo. She hoped bringing Sake will appease him. She walked carefully through the corridor, balancing the sake bottle on a tray in her hand. She didn't want to spill any of it, especially since Hanzo would punish her. The corridor was silent, except for the soft rustling of her kimono as she moved toward his room.

[Y/n] paused at the shoji screen, and took a deep breath but was caught off guard when she suddenly heard the distressed wails of her brother. [Y/n] quickly put down the tray and rushed inside the room, hoping to find her brother unharmed. But as she stood in her room, she saw Master Hanzo brutally whipping Izanami. 

"Stop!" Horrified, [Y/n] screamed and ran to her brother's aid. She knew she had to act fast before it was too late and begged Master Hanzo to stop the punishment, promising to take her brother's place if necessary. However, Master Hanzo remained unfazed and continued to whip Izanami mercilessly.

"Please, let him go! It was an accident!" [Y/n] begged, but he refused. Instead, he began to lash out at Izanami as well, but she was unwilling to back down. In a moment of desperation, [Y/n], found herself face-to-face with Hanzo. [Y/n]'s finger pointed directly at Hanzo as a blinding, ethereal sword manifested behind her and was instantly unleashed at him. The deathly projectile sliced through the air and impacted Hanzo's skin, eliciting cries of both pain and anger. Despite her young age, her ability to control the ethereal swords was still weak, and she was unable to fully obliterate Hanzo with a single blast. Unsatisfied with the sight of her master injured, [Y/n] continued to send a stream of swords his way, hoping to finish the job. Finally, she was able to pacify the raging swords.

Enraged, Hanzo grabbed [Y/n]'s hair and twisted her black tresses between his fingers, hauling the young girl off the ground and shaking her violently before flinging her to the floor. Izanami watched in horror as Hanzo's rage boiled over, wondering what they could do to stop him before he hurt her more, but he knew he couldn't.

Hanzo didn't give [Y/n] the time to react before his foot was digging into her as he shouted with pure disdain. "You bitch. How dare you hurt me! Who gave you the right!" [Y/n] winced in pain as she tried to push him away, but he was too strong. She knew she had to defend herself, but her mind was racing with fear and confusion.

"You disgraceful brat." Hanzo spits, ramming the heel of his foot into her ribs. [Y/n] winces in pain, tears streaming down her face as she tries to catch her breath. "I'm sorry," she manages to choke out between sobs. Hanzo kicks her one last time before taking a swig from his sake, glowering at the girl. He scoffs, throwing the bottle on the ground. [Y/n] flinches at the noise of it shattering into a million pieces on the ground behind her.
