It was a quiet night in the sands of Cairo.
Jonas: "And this time machine.. I have to do something."
The time machine was almost the size of a car. It had a lot of complicated lights, switches and levers.
"Those people.. They already set up everything if I have to guess. That's why I only had to enter the main details."
He leaves Clara there.. unconscious. And Dusty too, sleeping.
"First, I should manage things. Like hiding this thing and stuff."
Jonas travels back to the year 2122 to fix some things.
"I gotta have a proof.. that I'm a time traveler."
He goes back to his home at night.
Takes his father's modern Glock 19 Gen 12 pistol and kills both of his parents. He takes it with him, along with his mother's mobile phone.
When he goes back to the abandoned house where the time machine was, he sees that a man was standing there.
"So they sent their people to investigate the murders, huh? You too, will die now!"
Jonas fires a bullet at the man but he was wearing a bulletproof vest.
"Jonas Yeldstone.."
He comes closer to Jonas, revealing his long, purple hair and green eyes.
Jonas: "How do you.. know my name!?"
- "Because I am you.. Jonas Yeldstone. Yaztahruis."
Jonas: "What? What are you talking about?"
He lets Jonas go.
"Travel back. And don't worry.. You'll handle everything."
Jonas travels back to 1850.
Clara was still unconscious and Dusty was asleep.
Jonas heard someone coming towards them in the quiet night.
He carried Clara hardly and hid her behind some boxes. When he was going to hide Dusty, a man approached them.
He was Murad El Hakim.
Jonas acted as a homeless, abandoned and orphan kid.
"Our.. parents died and we have nowhere to go. Old man.."
Murad couldn't understand the German language he was speaking. He tried English too but nothing happened.
Murad: "Wait here.. I have a friend who can understand what you're saying."
A cowboy who was feared in that era. Clyde Rawlins.
He came there on his horse.
"Now that I'm awake. I suppose it's time for me to head back home. Daytime will be irritating. What do you want?"
Murad: "I found these kids.. Can you tell me what they're saying?"
Clyde told Murad and started to depart.
Murad: "Hey, Clyde! Why are you leaving them to me!? Can't you take them? I can't even understand their language!"
Clyde: "Then make them understand YOUR language. As simple as that. I don't have enough time yet. And on top of that, there are enemies lurking behind me all the time."
Murad adopts Jonas and Dusty and heads home, taking them.
Clyde notices Clara, who was unconscious.
"Who hid that girl there?.. Is she alive.."
He gets off of his horse and checks Clara.
"She is..
Hey, girl. Wake up... I think she's unconscious. And she's wounded too.
What do I do. I can't leave her here."
Clyde treats her wound with some equipments he had, and puts her on his horse.
Almost an hour later, Clara wakes up. Riding on the horse.
"Wh-.. Where am I.."
- "So you're awake. How's your wound?"
- "Wound.. Oh, yeah.. Did.. you treat this, gentleman?"
- "I guess so. What's your name and where are you from? You didn't look Egyptian so I carried you with me."
Clara thinks for a moment..
"Egyptian.. What?"
She sees that Clyde was wearing old school cowboy clothes and hat.
"What.. year is this?"
- "1850. Have you lost your memories by any chance?"
She panicks but slowly controls herself.
Thinking, "Calm down, Clara Yeldstone.. Calm down. So that really was a time machine. Jonas.. I'll never forgive you.
And the baby.. Did he take him too!?"
She says, "Hey, mister.."
- "Clyde Rawlins."
- "Mr. Clyde Rawlins. Can you.."
She thinks for a moment.
"Can you take me to.. Japan by any chance?"
She heard Jonas saying that he will destroy the Samurai by himself.
Clyde: "Japan? Well, now that I think about it.. You look kinda Asian."
Clara: "I.. I know. My mom was Japanese."
She thinks, "There's no way that I can go back to my time now. Jonas has the time machine. And I can't go without any preperation. I have to stay here for a while."
Clyde: "But girl.. I'm going to the USA. My home. I can't take you to such a far away land like Japan. I can't.."
Clara: "Then.. do you know some Japanese person? You're a cowboy, right? You might know many people."
Clyde: "Hmm.. I do know a guy. He's a good friend of mine. But he keeps travelling. The last time when I met him, he told me that he's going to Israel."
Clara: "Israel.. Please! Take me there at least!"
Clyde: "Well.. I suppose I can take you there.. at least better than travelling the whole globe, to Japan."
Clyde and Clara travel to Israel.
Ten days later, they reach Yeruham, Israel.
Clyde: "We're finally here, girl. Now I need to find that stupid ass bastard."
They roam around for a while.
Clara: "Are you sure we can find that friend of yours if we roam around like this?"
Clyde: "Yeah. Either he'd be fighting unnecessarily or sleeping at a random place."
They eventually find the Samurai.
"There he is. Hey, wake up."
Clyde gets off of the horse and kicks him.
"Wake up! Katsuro Kurogane!"
He wakes up, shocked.
"Wh.. What the hell are you doing here, Clyde Rawlins!?"
Clyde: "Don't be freaked out, bastard. I have some business for you.."
Clyde explains Katsuro about Clara.
Katsuro: "Hmm.. I see. I didn't understand a single thing."
Clyde punches him.
- "Ugghhh fine fine. I'll take her!"
Katsuro Kurogane takes Clara with him. To Kyoto, Japan.
Jonas explains everything to Murad during those days. Murad starts trusting him with the proofs.
Murad was already a respected guy in the country. So he convinced all the other people about Jonas too. That he's a time traveller, who came to save the world in the past.
He told that the samurai destroyed everything in the future. And he had come to the past to stop them where they are.
Kyoto, Japan:
Katsuro: "We're here."
His son, Ryu Kurogane came running towards him and punched him in the stomach.
"You always do this, dad! Why are you so careless about me!?"
- "I'm not careless, Ryu. I just like traveling."
Katsuro's wife died long ago. And he only had one son. Ryu Kurogane, who was 15 years old at that time.
"Wh.. who's this girl, dad?"
Katsuro explains Ryu about Clara.
Clara: "What're they talking about.. I wanna understand too."
He leaves Clara there.
"Now you won't be bored, Ryu. Teach her your language. You already know English, as in the tradition of our family. So you'll be able to teach her.
Take care of yourself, both of you. When you're old enough, we'll travel the world together.. I'm off."
Katsuro leaves again.
"Uhh so.. What's your name, girl?"
- "C... Clara. Clara Yeldstone. And you?"
- "Ryu.. Kurogane. I'm a dragon. Ryu means.. dragon."
Clara giggles and they get comfortable eventually.
And Katsuro.. never came back.
2 years later.
1852:
Ryu Kurogane and Clara Yeldstone fell in love and married each other. Had a child named Ryujiro Kurogane.
Cairo, Egypt:
Murad taught Jonas many things. He taught him to aim for the top. Egypt had already been convinced. Now it was time for the world.
"Big guy Murad.. You found me here. I've heard that this is the centre.. of the world. I'll rule it! And become the king of the world!"
Clyde adopts Jonas and Dusty.
He takes them. Jonas told Murad to take care of the time machine.
USA:
Clyde: "I can't believe I lost that little child.. Dusty. I won't be able to forgive myself.. never."
1858:
Dusty was adopted by a family. He spent most of his childhood with his friend, Vasilisa.
Ryu Kurogane reached Egypt and found out about Murad. He threatened and beat him, so Murad opened his mouth about the time machine. Ryu Kurogane used the time machine and travelled to the year 2304.
He sneaked into a laboratory and stole two big human preserving capsules. He got caught so he killed the people there. And quickly travelled back in time.
Ryu found Dusty and talked to him. Inspired him to become a strong cowboy.
Then in the 8th year of leaving his family, Ryu finally reached Jonas. "Hmm. I have become just like my father.. travelling.. leaving my family behind." He smiles.
"Jonas Yeldstone.. Your sister is my wife. And I've got a child too. Your intention.. is to finish the samurai, right? Stop with this bullshit.. Otherwise I have different options for you."
Jonas: "Oh? Then why don't you show them to me, Ryu Kurogane?"
Ryu took out his sword and clashed with Jonas. He stabbed Jonas in the leg but couldn't do much. Jonas punched Ryu in the face, only for Ryu to smile and punch Jonas back with much stronger fists.
Soon, Jonas got advantage of the lowering stamina of Ryu. And shot him. Ryu tried to dodge, but the bullet still hit his shoulder.
He surrendered, considering his family waiting for him.
"I can't.. end up like my father. Who never came back.
I'll come for you again. And if not me.. then my son. You'll be dead meat, Jonas Yeldstone! If your red monkey ass has that much courage and you're not a bitchy coward. Then why don't you except the challenge?"
Jonas fell for the bait and let Ryu go.
Ryu came back and told Clara Kurogane everything. "The samurai.. will be massacred soon. It can't be stopped."
Kenshin Inazuma committed suicide.
Ryu gave the human preserving capsules to Clara.
"Use these.. Preserve yourself. Stop your ageing and hide. You and Ryujiro.. both."
Clara cried..
"Don't care about me, Clara. You.. and our son. Are the most precious things to me. I love you both with all my heart."
He kissed Clara for the last time and she preserved her, along with Ryujiro. Hidden in the atmosphere. The time limit was set to 1866.
Ryu: "I think.. 1866. Until then, everything will be over. You both will be able to come out and live happily."
Jonas spent 15 years with Clyde, training.
In the 15th year. When he turned 25..
He betrayed Clyde and leaked his personal informations to the government.
He was the most wanted criminal. He got arrested.
The government started seeing Jonas as a saviour who got rid of the most wanted criminal.
He joined the US Army and was promoted to a high rank. He convinced the officers and high ranking people that he's from the future, with proofs.
"I already knew that the guy, Clyde Rawlins would destroy America by building his own army in the year 1870. That's why I got rid of him. And I can predict some future events too.
Wanna know some?
President Abraham Lincoln.. will be killed in April of this year, 1865."
His prediction was true. The US Army started to believe him as a saviour. The one who will change everything and lead the world to peace.
"If I get the power. I can bring our Lord Jesus Christ back to life and punish the murderers. But for that, my people.. you people will have tf support me. I'm nothing without all of you. Without my people, I'm just a piece of trash. My people and my country will support me, and I'll bring a revolution! Will you support me!?"
- "YEAH!"
- "My people will trust me and save the world!"
- "YEAH!!"
- "My people are the greatest!"
- "YEAH!!!"
He returned to Cairo.
"Big guy Murad.. This world is mine now."
He stayed with Murad for two years, started making governments and dictatorships in some countries as a saviour.
"This name.. Jonas Yeldstone is too boring for a guy who's gonna rule the world. Don't you think..?"
Murad: "If you say so. How about Yaztahruis? It means hidden devil."
- "Yaztahruis.."
He dyed his hair purple and started wearing black clothes.
He traveled back to the future many times and made connections with many companies.
He brought people to the past and made them work on phone devices with his contact as emergency.
He slowly gathered people and gave them the phones to contact him.
A special Fortress was built for him in Nevada, Area 51.
The Nimzarah Fortress.
1867. The king of the world was born.
The samurai massacre occurred in 1868.
Ryujiro and Clara were back to life, without ageing in 1866. But it was too soon.
Ryujiro turned 10 in 1868. And the massacre happened.
"Ryu.. jiro.. my son. You're gonna survive and become the greatest. You are the one who will lead this dark world to light again. I trust you.." Ryu died.
And Clara too.
Ryujiro was left alone.
As the last samurai..
