Tw: angst, burned alive, samurai dude



















A few years passed since the 'talk'. Now your 10 years old. Thankfully, he listened and started to work as some certain guard so if anything happens to the village he will use his weapon of choice and injure them, maybe even killing them.

Little did you know, he also secretly collecting money and accessories from the criminals so he can buy you goodies, and sweets because you love them.

You loved baking and drawing, so Gyuutaro often buys you supplies so you can bake anything you desire. You can do it because you both made enough money to buy a small shack and it has a small kitchen but enough to bake.

You love baking for Gyuutaro and feeding strays, and sells the extra sweets and bread to the neighbors for yen.

It was a stable life. At least.

You finally can wield a katana that your brother got you from somewhere, you asked him where and he said a samurai gave him one.

You believed him because he's your brother after all.

'I'm so glad I can do a constant breathing for half an hour. I should probably ask my brother is he wants to learn constant breathing with me, but it would sound suspicious' you thought, you wonder if your brother will be disgusted by you after you told him the truth about your origins. Will he hate you for lying to him? Or taking his original sister's place?

You didn't like that feeling you were feeling so you shaked it off.

You held the Katana that was in your hands and concentrated on breathing.

"Mist Breathing First Form: Low Clouds, Distant Haze" You whispered, concentrating on the large log that was your training dummy # 142.

You slashed through the log with all your strength.

Standing infront the log with the katana in your hands the log has cut a few inches

Standing infront the log with the katana in your hands the log has cut a few inches.

'Only 5 inches?' You thought with disappointment.

You clenched onto your katana more and glared at the log. 'Damn it! Why can't I do it?!'

You originally wanted to do Thunder breathing or Insect breathing since it could either look flashy or beautiful, yet your senses said that Mist Breathing was more suited for you.

'I can do two out of the six forms and yet, only five inches deep into the log. I'm so weak..' you looked down at the ground. 'If I was strong like Onii-Chan...'

Today was supposed to be any other day, yet why do you feel as if something would happen?
