I do not own Samurai Showdown except this story I made.

“YES! KILL THEM! KILL THEM ALL!” Mizuki proclaimed with enthusiasm as she observed the town in flames. The dark priestess was proud of her ambush plan. There was no way the villagers was going to get away from this one. “MORE BLACK FIRE!” She yelled out maniacally. She wasn't going to take any chances this time. Fireballs rained from the sky on the poor village, they didn't stand a chance. Demons to the left, Ogres to the right, and black flames all around them. “Ma'am” Mizuki heard a voice, “we have surrounded the village, your orders?” This brought an evil smile to Mizuki's face “Bring me the warrior in charge alive, kill everyone else.” she responded cruelly.

Screams were heard throughout the village. Charlotte was growing very uneasy. Watching from the top of the village as the invading monsters were rushing in. The sound of screams were getting closer to the top. Charlotte ran the bell tower trying to make contact, calling for backup from the allied forces. Unfortunately, the demon force was jamming any chance of the call reaching allied ears. Suddenly, someone burst through the door to the room. Charlotte quickly drew out her blade, turned to the door and pointed it right at the head of one of her allies. She lowered her weapon. “Ma'am, enemies have broken through, we have to retreat imm-DAH!” A claw flew through the head of the soldier, blood rushing out of the wound. A flood of demonic soldiers had poured into the room, surrounding Charlotte almost instantly. Charlotte dropped her blade and surrendered, it was over.

“Ma'am, we've captured a foreigner.” one of the demons spoke into the jewel. “Well... BRING HER HERE LIKE I TOLD YOU!” Mizuki's voice boomed through the gem. “Lousy spoiled...” the demon mumbled under his breath. “Come on, tie her up.” Charlotte tried to resist as the forced her arms behind her back and tied them up with rope, but it was to no avail. “Let's move out!” the demon barked out as he jutted Charlotte with the butt of his sword, making her jump a little. As they walked through the village, Charlotte looked around. The plaza was full corpses of the brave soldiers of the village. Blood was splattered everywhere, no one was left alive. Charlotte bowed her head with a tear, only to get another jut in the back, forcing her to continue. Outside was no better, the entire battlefield smelt like ash, Demon infantry was searching for any village survivors. Slowly, Charlotte was forced to march across the battlefield to the castle. After about an hour of forced marching, Charlotte had arrived at the HQ of her sworn enemies.

Charlotte was brought to the holding cells. “Get in there!” a soldier said, while shoving her in with his gun. Charlotte landed flat on her stomach, as the guard closed and locked the door. The cell was very dark and damp, the only light source was the light in the hallway shining through the bars
