Comic Story

Story outline

Ronin becomes a ghost hunter, charged to rid the world of the evil dead.
He encounters other lost souls on the way as he has a natural compassion for those in need of help.
As he helps these ghosts they inform him that his murder had no purpose as well as their own.
He learns of the murderer, Aku, the man is feared as an old evil, some call him the devil of insanity, others the puppet master of the psychotic.
Ronin learns that Aku kills because he feels like killing people, Aku rarely does anything on purpose, and he just wants to see the world burn.
Ronin wants Aku dead, not just for his family but for all those who have suffered, all those who have lost their lives because of this evil taint.
Ronin goes on a man hunt looking for Aku, asking lost spirits if they want to join him in the fight to destroy him, but none want to join him on his journey as all spirits fear him as he has the power to manipulate them, turn them to his side and make them demons who can possess humans.

Ronin goes on by himself wanting Aku to die for all that he has done.

                                    You have done well my son.

The man is their father, KAZIAH frozen in place as LEARA pushes him out of the way and pulls the sword out of their father.

Door unlocks and swings open as UNKWOWN MAN walks in, KAZIAH confused noticing the man he just stabbed wasn’t the man from outside.

                                                            KAZIAH

                                     What the shit! There’s two of them.

UNKWOWN MAN laughs and points at ENEMY on ground.

LEE

HAHA, so I see you have already met my brother... will someone get in here and fix him up!!! Can’t have him dying yet, wouldn’t that ruin a family reunion… That’s right I’m LEE by the way your uncle.

Then LEE turns away slamming the door shut behind him.

KAZIAH frozen in place looks towards LEARA, she reassures him that their father is still alive.

                                                            LEARA

It’s true… Their twins as well and our father is still alive well… maybe not for long.

The room fills with smoke. The twins are getting drowsy, they look at each other then they fall unconscious.
