okami's adventures in the dream realm

I was walking in a forest with my older brother, when he was suddenly stabbed in the back by an abnormally tall, pitch black figure. I became lucid in my horror. I instantly summoned my katana and swung, but I was too late an the figure had his knife stuck in my shoulder. I was in intense pain, but didn't lose lucidity. I jumped backwards, and ran foreward to take another swing at him. I connected with his forearm, and it fell to the ground. The figure then erupted in flames, and the forest caught on fire. I could feel the heat. I slashed at his head, but missed as he rolled backwards. I kept attacking, but he threw another knife at me. This one was extremely fast, and it embedded itself in my forehead. My vision darkened, and I fell to the ground as he dragged my brother's corpse away.
