"Is there nothing left?" a deep voice beside him asked.

Tadaka looked up to find Isawa Tsuke, the Master of Fire, standing near his elbow. Light from the castle's fires played across Tsuke's harsh face and made his eyes glow red.

The Master of Earth shook his head. "Nothing."

The crystal jewelry decorating Tsuke's orange and red kimono rattled and sparked in the darkness. He looked around suspiciously and rubbed his shaved head. "What about... it?"

"The oni?"

Tsuke nodded. "Hai."

"Dead," Tadaka replied. "Junzo left it behind when he burned the castle. It was crippled and weak. I still had to slay its body, though."

"You had no trouble doing so?" Tsuke asked. "None," Tadaka said. In his mind, he saw the witch hunter's spear flashing toward his side. He put his hand on his bandaged ribs and rubbed the indigo silk covering them.

"Too bad the beast didn't serve us better," Tsuke said grimly. "Still, we found what we summoned it for—power and knowledge to rival Fu Leng's own. When the time is right, we'll strike."

Tadaka pulled his round-brimmed straw hat low over his face. His eyes blazed green in the darkness. "Yes," he said. "Very soon, now."
