Character's Physical Description:
Character's Mental Description: Before he disappeared, Yoshi was lighthearted and goofy, frequently cracking jokes at inappropriate times and smiling in the face of danger, but since he has returned he’s only used his previous personality traits as a mask to hide the trauma he underwent during his time away. He is in constant agony and he has suffered great losses, but he is still able to keep his energy high for his comrades. He will always keep a smile on his face to ensure that people worry about themselves, rather than wasting their energy on what he considers a lost cause. Despite this, he still finds comfort in fighting strong enemies and loves to watch the youth of his village grow into capable shinobi. They are the only things capable of distracting him from his pain, and he finds these things worth continuing the fight, even though he grows tired of it.
Character History: In his Academy days, Yoshimitsu was regarded as a genius. Not only had he mastered the use of Fire and Lightning style ninjutsu, but he had also learned to control the Advanced elemental combination of the two, Plasma style. Not only that, but in his academy class, he seemed to be unparalleled by his fellow students in one-on-one combat sparring. As a result, the academy instructors saw it as a waste of time to continue limiting his growth by having him learn alongside students who did not learn as fast as him. He was granted an early graduation and began his training as a Genin.
During his training as a Genin, Yoshimitsu discovered that he had another skill that had been dormant thus far. He was able to manipulate the space and reality around him to shift a battle in his favor. He discovered this ability by accident during a mission when trying to save a teammate from a deadly blow. He was able to step through time-space and reach his teammate and block the blow with speeds that he could never have imagined possible. Upon returning from the mission, Yoshi began to refine this skill until he could control his movements more precisely and bend reality to his liking, more-or-less.
When it came time for his Chuunin Exams, he was able to use his newly mastered skills to breeze through most of it. It was a large exam full of several Genin, so he had to fight a lot. On the battlefield he came across a single Genin team that gave him trouble. Specifically, one person on the team gave him trouble while he was able to dispatch the other two genin rather easily. The one that gave him trouble was a blue-haired kunoichi that seemed to be around his age, and she was beautiful. She skated across the battlefield as if unaffected by gravity or the laws of physics. Her movements were fluid and deliberate. He was mesmerized by everything about her.
At the conclusion of the exam, Yoshi was promoted to Chuunin and it became his new personal mission to find this girl. When he did, it turned out that she was also impressed with Yoshi and was on her own personal quest to find him. Her name was Kagura Ayumi and she was also promoted to Chuunin. They quickly became close and began taking on high-rank missions as a two-man cell. Their teamwork and the synergy between their unique abilities grew astronomically, making them seemingly unstoppable when they fought together. It wasn’t long before they caught the attention of the Hokage at the time, Lord Yamaguchi Kami, who appointed them both the rank of Jounin and began sending them on very dangerous but important missions for the village.
After one mission, from the perspective of the village the duo disappeared completely without a trace. The village received word that the mission was completed successfully, but the two Jounin never made it back home. Their whereabouts were a mystery, but as time moved on, so did the village.
In reality, however, upon completing the mission the couple was approached by a Kami by the name of Mercury. He informed them that all of reality was in peril and that it was prophesized that only a pair of humans who were capable of becoming one with space-time could save it. Feeling a need to fulfill their duty, the two went with Mercury to what seemed like another dimension. They took part in a long war with the Kami against a powerful demon whose name was incredibly difficult for a human to pronounce or understand. As a result, due to Yoshi’s immature personality he frequently referred to the demon as several silly nicknames such as “Oni-chan.”
In their final battle, it seemed as though they finally had Oni-chan cornered. They fought with him and mortally wounded him, but as he was injured on the floor he revealed to them that he had lured them into a pocket dimension that he created, and since it was linked to his life force, it would disintegrate if he died. After his explanation, he trapped Ayumi, ensuring that he would take someone down with him. Yoshi attempted to save her, but Ayumi, not wanting him to suffer the same fate, used her Gravity style ninjutsu to force him through a portal to get out safely.
As Yoshi was being forced through space, he could see the pocket dimension behind him disintegrating along with the love of his life. Unfortunately, Yoshi was hurtling through reality outside of time without a destination, and he had no control of where he was going or where he’d end up. It seemed as though he was floating through nothing for centuries, alone and in mourning of his lover, when a powerful kami known as Ina appeared to save him. She said that the Kami owed the two of them a great deal for their work, and she gave him her condolences for Ayumi’s sacrifice. For his contribution to reality, she inscribed his name in what she referred to as the “Book of Life” and she helped provide the energy required to send him back home.
Yoshi was propelled back through space, but much faster this time. He saw a light approaching incredibly fast and was launched through it, bringing him back to an environment that felt familiar, but looked incredibly different. The mountain that once only had Lord Kami’s face on it, now had three more faces next to it. Everything looked bigger and more advanced. Was this really the reality that he left behind?
Kinjutsu App: Temporal Strider
“Nowhere left to run, Oni-chan!” Yoshi said with his arms crossed and a smug grin showing itself proudly on his face. Before him stood the mightiest foe he had ever faced up to this point, but Oni-chan was outnumbered. Fighting by Yoshi’s side was the fastest Kami he had ever met and an expert Nintaijutsu combatant, Mercury the Swift; another Kami who bears a demonic appearance but hosts a large heart, as well as incredibly strong ninjutsu and genjutsu skills, Samil the Deceiver; and the love of his life as well as the most graceful fighter Yoshi had ever laid his eyes on, Kagura Ayumi.
They had been chasing Oni-chan across time and space, hopping from one dimension to the next, and they had finally caught up to him. He was cornered. “It is time for you to pay for your crimes,” Samil proclaimed, simultaneously doing handseals. The large, ugly, ogre-like demon they had been chasing began to speak in a language Yoshi could not understand, but he could tell that the Youkai was both angry and disgusted by the group. He got into a defensive position as Samil launched a large, black fireball from his mouth towards the demon that was so massive that it felt like it took up the entire room.
It appeared as though the demon was standing his ground, possibly to either deflect the blast, or just absorb the blow, so Mercury took this brief cover from the fireball to reposition, sprinting at insane speeds to the left flank of the fireball. If the demon stood his ground, it would leave him open to Mercury’s attack. Oni-chan seemed to realize this and made a move to jump out of the way, but what he failed to notice was that Ayumi was hanging from the ceiling above him, her hands outstretched towards him. She was using her Gravity style ninjutsu to make it difficult for him to effectively dodge. At this moment, it became clear that the demon was planning on attempting to block the fireball and counter Mercury’s attack. However..
“Gotcha,” Yoshi chuckled from behind him, causing the beast to turn his head in a look of horror and defeat. The instant that Oni-chan turned his head to Mercury, Yoshi had analyzed the demon’s blind spot. He waited for exactly the perfect moment, and he teleported to that spot to launch the perfect surprise attack, only achievable by his team’s perfect teamwork and coordination. After working with each other for so long, they were capable of creating plans on the fly without communicating them verbally.
Yoshi channeled a massive amount of chakra to his right fist, causing it to glow a bright red color, even through Yoshi’s gloves. He launched the supercharged fist up into the large being’s right kidney, causing him to reel back in pain. “You’re done!” Yoshi roared as he slightly repositioned to be more in front of the Youkai, simultaneously channeling more chakra and every negative emotion he had built up over this journey into his left fist. That fist contained the heartache for the Kami that Yoshi had befriended that were brutally murdered in front of him during this war. It contained the screams of the innocent people who were disintegrated on the whim of this demon. It contained the tears of the children left without families. The fist glowed in a wild, uncontrolled, dark blackish aura.
Yoshi slammed this fist against the side of Oni-chan’s face, seemingly dazing him for a moment, providing the perfect opportunity for Yoshi to finish out his combo. “One more!” he bellowed as he channeled more chakra and every positive emotion he had built up in his right fist. This fist contained the laughs he shared with the teammates that he had befriended. It contained the smiles of the grateful civilians that he saved. It contained the love that he felt for Ayumi. This fist glowed in a calm, contained, bright white aura. Yoshi smashed this fist square in the middle of the Youkai’s ugly face, knocking him somewhat off his footing.
Yoshi quickly teleported out of the way as Mercury came sprinting through at breakneck speeds, his body coated entirely in lightning chakra. As he ran past the demon, there was a bright flash of light. Whatever happened, it happened so fast that Yoshi could not even hope to have perceived it, but a second later the demon’s right arm detached from his shoulder and fell to the ground with a surprisingly loud THUD.
Now dazed and disarmed, the Youkai could not defend himself from the large ball of black fire that was hurtling towards him. The flames quickly engulfed him and continued its trajectory until it slammed against the back wall, slamming the Demon with it. The creature fell on his back, on the brink of losing consciousness when Ayumi came flying from the ceiling like a shooting star and landed on his torso. Her knees pressed into his torso, she pinned his remaining arm with her right hand and unsheathed her weapon with her left. Her weapon was a Holy one granted by the Kami, known as the Reality Key. As its name suggested, it was shaped like a key and was used to open portals between worlds. It was how Ayumi and Yoshi would navigate dimensions if they did not have a Kami with them.
With the blade, she pointed it down towards his chest slowly, looking him in the eyes. Yoshi had never seen so much hate in her eyes. He thought that only he had possessed that much hate for the demon. “No one else will suffer because of you,” she said softly, then she plunged the blade into the demon’s chest. The demon coughed up blood and roared in pain, and then after a short moment, he began to laugh. “You’ve lost. What could possibly be so funny?” She inquired, becoming visibly annoyed. The demon began to speak in a language that neither she nor Yoshi could understand, prompting her to twist the blade in his chest. “Try again,” she said coldly as the demon roared in pain again.
“The moment you stepped foot in this pocket dimension I created, you had already lost.” The demon laughed. Yoshi was unaware that the beast was capable of speaking their language at all, but as he spoke, Yoshi began to understand why he was laughing, and horror slowly started to show itself on his face. “If I die, this dimension will cease to exist, along with everything in it.”
“We have to go now!” Mercury shouted as he did a quick hand seal, opening up a portal out of the dimension, but before anyone could react, several tendril-like appendages flew out of the wound in the demon’s chest and grabbed on to Ayumi’s entire left arm and blade, forcing her to slice his chest open more so he would bleed out faster. And as his chest opened more, more of the tendril-like appendages flew out and they wrapped themselves around Ayumi’s entire body, preventing her from moving.
“Ayumi!” Yoshi shouted and began to run over to her, but as he began to run towards her, he noticed that the look in her eyes changed from one of anger, to one of fear. She knew that there was no way she would escape in time, and she feared that Yoshi would suffer the same fate as her if he got to close to the tendrils, so she lifted the arm that she was using to pin the demon’s arm and she reached out to him. Yoshi thought she was reaching out for him, until his feet were lifted from the ground. He looked down at his feet, and hen back up to Ayumi with a desperate look of defeat in his eyes. “Please..” he whispered as a tear started to roll down his face. Then she launched him through the portal that Mercury had created.
As he was flying out of the dimension, he attempted to teleport back into it, but as he was doing so, he watched the dimension disintegrate right before his eyes. Yoshi stared in utter horror as his entire world vanished in front of him. But he still had to try. As a result of trying to teleport into a dimension that was in the process of destroying itself, Yoshi experienced a powerful shockwave that launched him through reality outside of time. He was surrounded in bright colors and what looked like clouds of energy, but everything seemed so far away.
As Yoshi was hurtling through this unfamiliar plane of existence, he began reaching out for something to stop his momentum so he could take a moment to figure out how to get out of this, but there was nothing to grab onto. He was just plunging through nothing at high speeds. It was almost dizzying. Not only that, but he lost the thing he cared about more than anything in his world. His life was literally falling apart, and he couldn’t do anything about it.
After what felt like several decades of flying through nothingness at top speeds, Yoshi ran his weak, wrinkled hands through his long, grey beard and realized that he had gone through every stage of grief multiple times. At times he was certain that there was a way she could’ve slipped out of the dimension before it collapsed. Maybe Mercury and Samil got her out. They were powerful Kami capable of opening space-time after all. Maybe they managed to cut the tendrils or move the entire body in time. She was powerful on her own, maybe she found her own way out.
Eventually he would just get angry. Why did Mercury open that portal? She would’ve never been able to force Yoshi out if he hadn’t. Why couldn’t they have saved her? Why wouldn’t she let him be with her during their last moments? Why wouldn’t he have just tried to teleport sooner? He would swing at stuff to try and release his anger, but there was nothing to hit so he would just become angrier.
There was nothing Yoshi wouldn’t do to find out that Ayumi was safe somewhere. He would give up all of his earthly possessions. He would donate to charity. He would build homes for the homeless with his bare hands. He would literally give his life for her to be okay.
There were so many moments when Yoshi would just fly through this reality of nothingness crying. Thinking about the times they had and wishing it wasn’t ripped from him so violently. Why did they have to accept this mission? Why did they have to be the ones from the prophecy? They could’ve stayed in the Leaf village, where everything was simpler. But he couldn’t just be happy with the simple life, and it cost him everything. He was filled with regret. He replayed the moment over and over in his head for decades.
Then there were moments where Yoshi realized that this is what Ayumi wanted. She didn’t die sad. She died doing what they loved and saving the one she loved. She clearly would rather die knowing that she saved Yoshi, than dying alongside him, and there were many times where he would find comfort in these thoughts, but it wouldn’t be long before he repeated the cycle and would go back into denial.
Several more decades past. Yoshi had no way of telling time, but he knew for a fact that he had been existing in this plane of existence without food or water for at least 100 years, but he didn’t know how. What was sustaining him? In fact, he knew that he was aging because of the long grey beard, so why was he not dying of old age. Yoshi reached up to his beard and grasped at nothing. Yoshi kept grasping until his hand finally touched his face, smooth and soft. Smoother than it was when he fought the Demon with Ayumi. How was that possible? He looked down for any trace of his beard and noticed that, not only was his beard gone, but his hands were tiny, and his legs and torso were shorter.
He was a child!
He had somehow de-aged severely and didn’t even notice it. It was at this moment that Yoshi began to realize how he was surviving in this reality. He was somehow absorbing vast amounts of temporal energy and that’s what was sustaining him. Yoshi did not know whether to consider this good news or bad news. On the bright side, it would give his teammates plenty of time to find him. On the downside, if they never did, he would exist in this reality for all of eternity, and that is not something that Yoshi looked forward to. But he had to stay strong mentally in case they did find him.
Several more decades past. This time probably more than the other two times combined. Yoshi had been floating outside of time for centuries. He was losing hope. He had been fighting to maintain his sanity for so long. He was on the brink of giving up. He did not know what to do. The emotions in him started to rise. He didn’t want to give up but being himself was becoming so hard. He was hanging on to so much negative emotion that it was almost too much to bear.
A single tear rolled down Yoshi’s cheek.. Immediately after, a bright light appeared in front of him, almost blindingly. Yoshi held out his hands to block the light out when it struck him what was happening. All the negative emotions in his body were quickly replaced with positive ones. This was amplified tenfold when the voice spoke to him, “Yoshimitsu. I have finally found you.”

Character's Physical Description:
- Gender: Male
- Height: 188 cm (6’2”)
- Weight: 87.1 kg (192 lbs)
- Hair Color: Blonde
- Eye Color: Blue
- Clothing: Ever since Yoshi has returned, he can be seen wearing an outfit that many may perceive as silly or flamboyant, but Yoshi views it as purely functional. What he wears is Celestial Armor granted to him by the Kami warriors that he frequently worked with during his time away. His armor consists of a silver top with green and gold trim and a large number one million in gold lettering matching the trim across the chest, silver boots with gold soles to match the top, blue pants with large white, rectangular patches sewn on the side that act as subtle item pouches, dark red, padded gloves, and a large, red cloak that he frequently wraps around his body to avoid his armor drawing unwanted attention, but appears in combat similar to a cape. He also always wore his Leaf Forehead protector as a belt to represent where he came from, even during his disappearance. The gold number one million has some significance to the Kami who forged the armor, but they never fully explained it to Yoshi so he can only partially explain it to anyone who asks.
Character's Mental Description: Before he disappeared, Yoshi was lighthearted and goofy, frequently cracking jokes at inappropriate times and smiling in the face of danger, but since he has returned he’s only used his previous personality traits as a mask to hide the trauma he underwent during his time away. He is in constant agony and he has suffered great losses, but he is still able to keep his energy high for his comrades. He will always keep a smile on his face to ensure that people worry about themselves, rather than wasting their energy on what he considers a lost cause. Despite this, he still finds comfort in fighting strong enemies and loves to watch the youth of his village grow into capable shinobi. They are the only things capable of distracting him from his pain, and he finds these things worth continuing the fight, even though he grows tired of it.

He was granted an early graduation and began his training as a Genin.
During his training as a Genin, Yoshimitsu discovered that he had another skill that had been dormant thus far.

Her movements were fluid and deliberate. He was mesmerized by everything about her.
At the conclusion of the exam, Yoshi was promoted to Chuunin and it became his new personal mission to find this girl. When he did, it turned out that she was also impressed with Yoshi and was on her own personal quest to find him. Her name was Kagura Ayumi and she was also promoted to Chuunin. They quickly became close and began taking on high-rank missions as a two-man cell. Their teamwork and the synergy between their unique abilities grew astronomically, making them seemingly unstoppable when they fought together. It wasn’t long before they caught the attention of the Hokage at the time, Lord Yamaguchi Kami, who appointed them both the rank of Jounin and began sending them on very dangerous but important missions for the village.
After one mission, from the perspective of the village the duo disappeared completely without a trace. The village received word that the mission was completed successfully, but the two Jounin never made it back home. Their whereabouts were a mystery, but as time moved on, so did the village.
In reality, however, upon completing the mission the couple was approached by a Kami by the name of Mercury. He informed them that all of reality was in peril and that it was prophesized that only a pair of humans who were capable of becoming one with space-time could save it. Feeling a need to fulfill their duty, the two went with Mercury to what seemed like another dimension. They took part in a long war with the Kami against a powerful demon whose name was incredibly difficult for a human to pronounce or understand. As a result, due to Yoshi’s immature personality he frequently referred to the demon as several silly nicknames such as “Oni-chan.”
In their final battle, it seemed as though they finally had Oni-chan cornered. They fought with him and mortally wounded him, but as he was injured on the floor he revealed to them that he had lured them into a pocket dimension that he created, and since it was linked to his life force, it would disintegrate if he died. After his explanation, he trapped Ayumi, ensuring that he would take someone down with him. Yoshi attempted to save her, but Ayumi, not wanting him to suffer the same fate, used her Gravity style ninjutsu to force him through a portal to get out safely.
As Yoshi was being forced through space, he could see the pocket dimension behind him disintegrating along with the love of his life. Unfortunately, Yoshi was hurtling through reality outside of time without a destination, and he had no control of where he was going or where he’d end up.

For his contribution to reality, she inscribed his name in what she referred to as the “Book of Life” and she helped provide the energy required to send him back home.
Yoshi was propelled back through space, but much faster this time. He saw a light approaching incredibly fast and was launched through it, bringing him back to an environment that felt familiar, but looked incredibly different. The mountain that once only had Lord Kami’s face on it, now had three more faces next to it. Everything looked bigger and more advanced. Was this really the reality that he left behind?
Kinjutsu App: Temporal Strider
“Nowhere left to run, Oni-chan!” Yoshi said with his arms crossed and a smug grin showing itself proudly on his face. Before him stood the mightiest foe he had ever faced up to this point, but Oni-chan was outnumbered. Fighting by Yoshi’s side was the fastest Kami he had ever met and an expert Nintaijutsu combatant, Mercury the Swift; another Kami who bears a demonic appearance but hosts a large heart, as well as incredibly strong ninjutsu and genjutsu skills, Samil the Deceiver; and the love of his life as well as the most graceful fighter Yoshi had ever laid his eyes on, Kagura Ayumi.
They had been chasing Oni-chan across time and space, hopping from one dimension to the next, and they had finally caught up to him. He was cornered. “It is time for you to pay for your crimes,” Samil proclaimed, simultaneously doing handseals. The large, ugly, ogre-like demon they had been chasing began to speak in a language Yoshi could not understand, but he could tell that the Youkai was both angry and disgusted by the group. He got into a defensive position as Samil launched a large, black fireball from his mouth towards the demon that was so massive that it felt like it took up the entire room.
It appeared as though the demon was standing his ground, possibly to either deflect the blast, or just absorb the blow, so Mercury took this brief cover from the fireball to reposition, sprinting at insane speeds to the left flank of the fireball. If the demon stood his ground, it would leave him open to Mercury’s attack. Oni-chan seemed to realize this and made a move to jump out of the way, but what he failed to notice was that Ayumi was hanging from the ceiling above him, her hands outstretched towards him. She was using her Gravity style ninjutsu to make it difficult for him to effectively dodge. At this moment, it became clear that the demon was planning on attempting to block the fireball and counter Mercury’s attack. However..
“Gotcha,” Yoshi chuckled from behind him, causing the beast to turn his head in a look of horror and defeat. The instant that Oni-chan turned his head to Mercury, Yoshi had analyzed the demon’s blind spot. He waited for exactly the perfect moment, and he teleported to that spot to launch the perfect surprise attack, only achievable by his team’s perfect teamwork and coordination. After working with each other for so long, they were capable of creating plans on the fly without communicating them verbally.
Yoshi channeled a massive amount of chakra to his right fist, causing it to glow a bright red color, even through Yoshi’s gloves. He launched the supercharged fist up into the large being’s right kidney, causing him to reel back in pain. “You’re done!” Yoshi roared as he slightly repositioned to be more in front of the Youkai, simultaneously channeling more chakra and every negative emotion he had built up over this journey into his left fist. That fist contained the heartache for the Kami that Yoshi had befriended that were brutally murdered in front of him during this war. It contained the screams of the innocent people who were disintegrated on the whim of this demon. It contained the tears of the children left without families. The fist glowed in a wild, uncontrolled, dark blackish aura.
Yoshi slammed this fist against the side of Oni-chan’s face, seemingly dazing him for a moment, providing the perfect opportunity for Yoshi to finish out his combo. “One more!” he bellowed as he channeled more chakra and every positive emotion he had built up in his right fist. This fist contained the laughs he shared with the teammates that he had befriended. It contained the smiles of the grateful civilians that he saved. It contained the love that he felt for Ayumi. This fist glowed in a calm, contained, bright white aura. Yoshi smashed this fist square in the middle of the Youkai’s ugly face, knocking him somewhat off his footing.
Yoshi quickly teleported out of the way as Mercury came sprinting through at breakneck speeds, his body coated entirely in lightning chakra. As he ran past the demon, there was a bright flash of light. Whatever happened, it happened so fast that Yoshi could not even hope to have perceived it, but a second later the demon’s right arm detached from his shoulder and fell to the ground with a surprisingly loud THUD.
Now dazed and disarmed, the Youkai could not defend himself from the large ball of black fire that was hurtling towards him. The flames quickly engulfed him and continued its trajectory until it slammed against the back wall, slamming the Demon with it. The creature fell on his back, on the brink of losing consciousness when Ayumi came flying from the ceiling like a shooting star and landed on his torso. Her knees pressed into his torso, she pinned his remaining arm with her right hand and unsheathed her weapon with her left. Her weapon was a Holy one granted by the Kami, known as the Reality Key. As its name suggested, it was shaped like a key and was used to open portals between worlds. It was how Ayumi and Yoshi would navigate dimensions if they did not have a Kami with them.
With the blade, she pointed it down towards his chest slowly, looking him in the eyes. Yoshi had never seen so much hate in her eyes. He thought that only he had possessed that much hate for the demon. “No one else will suffer because of you,” she said softly, then she plunged the blade into the demon’s chest. The demon coughed up blood and roared in pain, and then after a short moment, he began to laugh. “You’ve lost. What could possibly be so funny?” She inquired, becoming visibly annoyed. The demon began to speak in a language that neither she nor Yoshi could understand, prompting her to twist the blade in his chest. “Try again,” she said coldly as the demon roared in pain again.
“The moment you stepped foot in this pocket dimension I created, you had already lost.” The demon laughed. Yoshi was unaware that the beast was capable of speaking their language at all, but as he spoke, Yoshi began to understand why he was laughing, and horror slowly started to show itself on his face. “If I die, this dimension will cease to exist, along with everything in it.”
“We have to go now!” Mercury shouted as he did a quick hand seal, opening up a portal out of the dimension, but before anyone could react, several tendril-like appendages flew out of the wound in the demon’s chest and grabbed on to Ayumi’s entire left arm and blade, forcing her to slice his chest open more so he would bleed out faster. And as his chest opened more, more of the tendril-like appendages flew out and they wrapped themselves around Ayumi’s entire body, preventing her from moving.
“Ayumi!” Yoshi shouted and began to run over to her, but as he began to run towards her, he noticed that the look in her eyes changed from one of anger, to one of fear. She knew that there was no way she would escape in time, and she feared that Yoshi would suffer the same fate as her if he got to close to the tendrils, so she lifted the arm that she was using to pin the demon’s arm and she reached out to him. Yoshi thought she was reaching out for him, until his feet were lifted from the ground. He looked down at his feet, and hen back up to Ayumi with a desperate look of defeat in his eyes. “Please..” he whispered as a tear started to roll down his face. Then she launched him through the portal that Mercury had created.
As he was flying out of the dimension, he attempted to teleport back into it, but as he was doing so, he watched the dimension disintegrate right before his eyes. Yoshi stared in utter horror as his entire world vanished in front of him. But he still had to try. As a result of trying to teleport into a dimension that was in the process of destroying itself, Yoshi experienced a powerful shockwave that launched him through reality outside of time. He was surrounded in bright colors and what looked like clouds of energy, but everything seemed so far away.
As Yoshi was hurtling through this unfamiliar plane of existence, he began reaching out for something to stop his momentum so he could take a moment to figure out how to get out of this, but there was nothing to grab onto. He was just plunging through nothing at high speeds. It was almost dizzying. Not only that, but he lost the thing he cared about more than anything in his world. His life was literally falling apart, and he couldn’t do anything about it.
After what felt like several decades of flying through nothingness at top speeds, Yoshi ran his weak, wrinkled hands through his long, grey beard and realized that he had gone through every stage of grief multiple times. At times he was certain that there was a way she could’ve slipped out of the dimension before it collapsed. Maybe Mercury and Samil got her out. They were powerful Kami capable of opening space-time after all. Maybe they managed to cut the tendrils or move the entire body in time. She was powerful on her own, maybe she found her own way out.
Eventually he would just get angry. Why did Mercury open that portal? She would’ve never been able to force Yoshi out if he hadn’t. Why couldn’t they have saved her? Why wouldn’t she let him be with her during their last moments? Why wouldn’t he have just tried to teleport sooner? He would swing at stuff to try and release his anger, but there was nothing to hit so he would just become angrier.
There was nothing Yoshi wouldn’t do to find out that Ayumi was safe somewhere. He would give up all of his earthly possessions. He would donate to charity. He would build homes for the homeless with his bare hands. He would literally give his life for her to be okay.
There were so many moments when Yoshi would just fly through this reality of nothingness crying. Thinking about the times they had and wishing it wasn’t ripped from him so violently. Why did they have to accept this mission? Why did they have to be the ones from the prophecy? They could’ve stayed in the Leaf village, where everything was simpler. But he couldn’t just be happy with the simple life, and it cost him everything. He was filled with regret. He replayed the moment over and over in his head for decades.
Then there were moments where Yoshi realized that this is what Ayumi wanted. She didn’t die sad. She died doing what they loved and saving the one she loved. She clearly would rather die knowing that she saved Yoshi, than dying alongside him, and there were many times where he would find comfort in these thoughts, but it wouldn’t be long before he repeated the cycle and would go back into denial.
Several more decades past. Yoshi had no way of telling time, but he knew for a fact that he had been existing in this plane of existence without food or water for at least 100 years, but he didn’t know how. What was sustaining him? In fact, he knew that he was aging because of the long grey beard, so why was he not dying of old age. Yoshi reached up to his beard and grasped at nothing. Yoshi kept grasping until his hand finally touched his face, smooth and soft. Smoother than it was when he fought the Demon with Ayumi. How was that possible? He looked down for any trace of his beard and noticed that, not only was his beard gone, but his hands were tiny, and his legs and torso were shorter.
He was a child!
He had somehow de-aged severely and didn’t even notice it. It was at this moment that Yoshi began to realize how he was surviving in this reality. He was somehow absorbing vast amounts of temporal energy and that’s what was sustaining him. Yoshi did not know whether to consider this good news or bad news. On the bright side, it would give his teammates plenty of time to find him. On the downside, if they never did, he would exist in this reality for all of eternity, and that is not something that Yoshi looked forward to. But he had to stay strong mentally in case they did find him.
Several more decades past. This time probably more than the other two times combined. Yoshi had been floating outside of time for centuries. He was losing hope. He had been fighting to maintain his sanity for so long. He was on the brink of giving up. He did not know what to do. The emotions in him started to rise. He didn’t want to give up but being himself was becoming so hard. He was hanging on to so much negative emotion that it was almost too much to bear.
A single tear rolled down Yoshi’s cheek.. Immediately after, a bright light appeared in front of him, almost blindingly. Yoshi held out his hands to block the light out when it struck him what was happening. All the negative emotions in his body were quickly replaced with positive ones. This was amplified tenfold when the voice spoke to him, “Yoshimitsu. I have finally found you.”
