Diverged Bloodlines [P, Kenshin, Souji]

The words of his mother fell on him, though wise in their meaning, supple in their delivery. The Prince would heed them as best he could, of all people — these two would best understand the colloquy. Her faith in Kenshin was blazing, it was clear to Souji that these two had a shared history that cannot, or rather should not ever be called into question. “There is no one, more than myself, that knows what a path of power will have lying in wait for them. I’ve been investigating this scroll and the required components for months now. I’m invested in this.” His eyes would glance over to his mother, his face genuine. 

Kenshin stood, he prepared himself for the part that he was to play in all of this. Souji returned his eyes on him, that foreboding chakra and presence left the boy uneasy, but he had already made up his mind and there was no turning back now. His chest was pierced by the fingers of Kenshin, as well as his mother. The small pinch of pain was soon razed as his body felt nothing. It was a swift procedure, a testament to the former Kazekage’s medical knowledge. Soon after his eyes closed, though that made no difference as his All-Seeing eye still saw everything that came next. 

The threads rapidly breached his eye socket and severed the link that gave him vision in that eye it was gone. A question, one of clarification was proposed. Souji shook his head as he opened his remaining eye to look upon the scroll. He must then harness the purity of the flames he posses already. According to his understanding of the context of the scroll the flames hold a power of cleansing. Souji raised his hand and channeled his chakra at the palm. A spark of flames wisps in its brilliance. He would then add in his knowledge of nature energy which then added a layer of cleanliness to the flames. Thus it eclipse into a pristine white and silver flame. The eye of the Hyuuga would then widen as he acknowledged this change in chakra nature and depths. It was heavy, as heavy as the tainted chakra that was flowing through the reaper. Souji would then look to is mother and then to Kenshin. He thrust the flame into his eye socket that was vacant and the flame would take shelter there, binding to him mind, body and soul. From that a pain would overtake him, that shouldn’t have due to the tech that was used. Souji would stand and his body would permeate white-silver wisps of flames from him. He paused as he found his being being purified by this flame. 

Things would die down from that point. Souji would exhale slowly and then look to them. One Byakugan, one eye of flames. The wisps would gyrate around his head on the right side. “That was one hell of a kick.” He would place his right hand over his right eye socket. He would instinctively rush to move his hand, but soon realized that there was no pain from the flames. He was…immune? They would also discover that his chakra has changed entirely. It was more so close to nature chakra with a hint of his normal chakra.

She held no objections to the procedure being done at the table - when was blood ever something she shied from anyhow? She had been through this feeling before by his hand, though never on such a sensitive subject as her eye and it took a lot of deep breathing and avid calming to keep her reactions to a stable level to ensure it went smooth overall. For a few brief moments the light in her eye left her and a panic rose in her chest something fiercer than she ever felt - though she sat still her nails dug deep into the chair’s arms causing splinters on the smooth wood. No pain was felt but it was the fear of loss of sight that caused such a reaction out of her - moments later a new eye was inserted and reconnected within seconds; allowing a few blinks before a new world was opened to her.

Causing her to reel back til her head hit the back of the chair as she stared at the new world around her - though it was split down the middle it was still hard to reconcile. Having lived many decades with one type of sight this was a lot to take in - those in front of her were lined with several dozen networks that she knew were chakra networks. Though the show of the eye that Souji was now missing was engulfed in flames and it was even harder for her to accept as a safe option. As much as she wished to comfort him she was unable to as she struggled to regulate her own panic - struggling to maintain the ability of the Byakugan. In the next moments she would regain her usual calm but the bulging veins on her temple around the eye would be a tell tale sign she was not in control of this as much as she prostrated that she was. 

Nodding as if nothing was amis, she waved her hand across the feast and invited all to partake, her mind bombarded with this new information - it seemed some practice would be in order. “Of course I would be remiss to see such a banquet go to waste.. Thank you both for the evening and… forgive the intrusion.” She would comment, making an idle comment due to the obvious lack of control she wielded.

The evening continued without any further issue and she sent Souji to bed as Kenshin left the home - choosing to stay awake and clean the kitchen alone to give her a much needed time alone.
