The Boat went ashore to the Fishing Town. The Boat reached the dock and the Sailors tied the boat to the dock and they all un-boarded the boat. Not far from the Docks was a Brothel Bar of which Sailors, when they stop over, would go there.

there was a Temple built upon a hill surrounded by trees with a Long Steep Stairway which went up to a Shinto like gateway. At the base of the stairs were 2 Soldiers dressed in the Uniform of the Imperial Army. They were Hanyou as you could tell by their Wolf Ears that stuck out from beneath their Caps. The 2 Soldiers stood at the position of attention facing each other standing at opposite sides of the Stairway and at the top of the stairway were 2 more Hanyou soldiers standing at attention except facing the positions of the 2 other soldiers. They were Guarding the Temple. [ooc: just picture it like that one scene from the Last Samurai where the British Guy and the 2 American Officers were walking up the stairs.]

Elise noticed the temple and began to make her way toward it.She slowly walked up the stairs,She could hear monks chanting and when she opend the door,she saw a dimly lit room with monks bowing and praying to a statue of a woman.She slowly walked towards the statue to get a closer look.The air was heavy with incense which made her dizzy, so she wouls stagger occasionly, kinda making it seem like she was drunk.

Even on the Temple Grounds there was about 10 more Hanyou soldiers but they weren't at a post like the 4 soldiers standing at attention they were either helping out with the Temple, praying, or occupying themselves. The Priest of the Temple noticed Elise and approached her "How may we help you young one?" The Priest asked. The Priest was older than her and was rumored to be older than anyone and to have lived during the reign of 3 OkamiTaishos Including the reigning one now.

Elise was slightly mesmerized by the statue and stared at it for a second longer before pulling herelf away to face the man."Oh, i was just looking around,Ive never really been to one of these temples before."Elise stumbed over due to the heavy smell of incense and almost stumbled into the old man,but regained control over her dizzy spell."Im sorry, i have a very sensitive nose and this incense is making me dizzy."she said with a forced smile.

"Ah... All of us have a good Sense of smell but we have grown used to the Incense Please Come this way so you do not collapse from the Incense..." The Priest said as he walked out of the temple door and looked out at the Harbor "What brings you here Miss? You are not of this Land..." The Priest said. The Temple was located on a foresty hill over looking the city and the Harbor which had Fishing ships entering and leaving the harbor. In This City is where a lot of Foreign Trade is done so Ships from China, Korea, And rarely any Spanish, Portuguese, or Russian Merchant ships. The City was mostly a Hanyou Paradise for a lot of the Citizens there were Hanyou or Human with some Youkai that would accept the Hanyou or Human Population. A lot of the Chinese and Koreans that came to trade were either Human or Demons from the Continent. There were a bunch of Korean and Chinese Merchant Ships and Merchants in The City this week and then a Spanish Ship Entered Harbor but when they did and when they found out that the city was a Demonic City they refused to sell goods or trade with the City but they couldn't Leave the Harbor because The Imperial Navy's Newest Super ship was blocking the Harbor Entrance leaving only enough room for Fishing boats to leave the Harbor. The Spanish crew began to get bored of sitting onboard the Ship for a long time and their food was running scarce since so they were forced to trade but they only would trade to the Humans and when ever Spanish Seamen Went ashore the Religious man on the ship would say "Be with God And not with the Heathen Demons of Satan!".
At the Brothel/Bar...
There were a few Chinese and Koreans in the Bar and Brothel then came the Spanish Seamen who entered the place with a very rude and smelly entrance since they had not bathed at all being on the sea for a loooong time with no bath. One of the Spaniards, A big Fat man who was bald and one of his eyes was pale blue and he had crooken and few teeth, sat down next to Magoichi and ordered a drink in a very poor way speaking of Japanese and Very Poor Pronunciation. The Man Smelled of Body Odor and the guy let one loose(Passed gas) Right next to Magoichi.

Magoichi watched the man in the corner of his eyes while he drank his sake and held his breath.Must...not..breath.......too smelly)Magichi hid his disgust however and turned towards the man."Your arn't from around here are you?"
At the temple Elise stepped outside with the monk and looked at the scenery."Your right, im not from these lands.I am from Europe actually.I was banished awhile ago from my country however.I set sail to Japan and have lived here ever since though.I find this place to be the most peacful though.Throughout all the lnads ive travled, this on eis the best."Elsie continued to stared at the forest and the harbor below.

The Man turned to Magoichi "Aye Spain is where I be from." The man said as he gulped his Sake.
"Ah... We occaisionally get humans in this land but very rare... the Human Shogun doesn't favore Europeans and would rather have them all Executed and banished but the Shogun doesn't rule the Lands of a Demon who rules over the Shogun... Our Emperor Who is fighting in this war to reclaim what is rightfully his doesn't mind Europeans... I guess that would be why we have more Europeans in our Northern Lands than any other Territory here in Japan..." The Priest said.

Magoichi looked a bit curious whent he man answered him."Spain huh, what brings you there to here.Im sure its not the sake."he said lifting his glass and drinking his cup dry.
Elise smiled."Its interesting that you say that,because it just so happens that i am fighting for the Emperor."

The Big guy looked at Magoichi "Gold and Wealth is what brings us here!" The Guy said with a loud chuckle "Why you wanna know yeh Oriental mess..." the Man said Insulting feeling superior to all non Europeans and non Catholics.
"Oh... Why might you be seeing the Emperor?" The Priest asked.

Magoichi laughed."Me a mess,you should take a look at herself sir.Compared to you a pig is cleaner and less vulgar."
Elise chuckled.It's an extremly long story,lets just say that one event led to another."

"What did you call me!?" The guy then swung a Punch at Magoichi and his fist hit Magoichi in the jaw when that happend an Imperial Sailor threw a punch at the Fat guy knocking him down and then another Spaniard hit the Sailor and soon the Whole Bar was in a fight. The only ones not fighting were the Chinese who all sat in one sector all calm watching everything and drinking their drinks and/or eating.
"Ah I see... It is sad to say but I have heard of a Temple in the Southern Parts of Japan that claims to have a Prophecy of everythign that is happening here in the North. The Rise and fall of a Wolf Demon Leader... It is most unfortunate that now that temple was badly damaged in a Bombing in the Southern lands by Toka's army. Toka is a very Back Stabbing man... I was once a Samurai who once fought under his command a loong time ago and he was known to backstab people..." The Priest said.

Magoichi had hit the floor due to the punch, but he then crawled to his gun and grabbed it.He then stood up and walked over to the spainard that punched him and hit him across the face with the butt of his rifle.

Another Spaniard punched Magoichi and a Sailor Punched The Spaniard. in the middle of the fight there was a Chinese Swordsmen and a Ronin talking about things. Then the door opened and a Fancy Dressed Man with a feather in his hat walked in. Obviously he was a European. The Man had a Spanish Sword and a Pistol. The Man pulled out his Pistol and fired off a shot into the ceiling and everyone stopped. The guy shouted something in Spanish and all the Spaniards headed back to their ship.
