4 Brothers

Chapter 1

15 years later

"AKI, wake up we have to hurry you sleepy brick" screams my brother Ryōtaro from the entrance of the temple. I wake up almost screaming and start looking around in hectic. I go to the window and open it just to see my brother Ryōtaro standing outside and looking up
as he sees me, he starts running up the wall and pulls himself onto the window frame.
I stumble back and land straight on my ass.
"What the hell man, how did you even do that?" I asked him.
"Well if you would start to train a bit more,you could do the same little brother "
He knows pretty well that I don't have enough power or physical strength to pull that kind of move so I just roll my eyes. Ryō smirks at me and starts patting my head pretty ruthless but not enough to actually hurt me.
As he is heading to the door I start to think at which point in my life I became the little brother. Technically we're all the same age, but still at some point my brothers decided that Haruki was the oldest, Ryōtaro the second oldest, Yukio the second youngest and I the youngest.
It's weird we're also almost the same hight, I'm just slightly smaller.
Maybe when I... "you coming or did you fall asleep again?" Ryōtaro yells as he pulls me out of my thoughts. "Coming coming" I say as I dress up and run out of my room and down the wooden stairs.
As I run around the wall, I crash with full speed into someone. We both fall down and as I look up, I see Yuki, while he is rubbing his head he looks at me kind of pissed "can't you watch where you going, idiot?" He said as he looks at me angrily.
"Well aren't you such a great ninja, shouldn't you have... I don't know, see me coming or something" I say.
It's true Yuki is a trained ninja, quiet on his feet and careful in all his movements so why not now. "My god Aki, we are all trained ninjas, you are naturally quiet, you're just not good enough to actually use you're skills" he says angry.
I look at him hurt as I stand up slowly, his eyes startet to soften and it looks like he wants to say something... "what is taking you so long Aki, Ryō is already waiting outside "I hear Haru say as my third brother approaches me, he takes me by the neck of my shirt, pulls me up and push me forward to the door.
At the same time he takes Yukios arm and pulls his brother after him.
As I stumble outside I already see Ryō sitting in front of our Sensei.
As I sit down next to him I hear Haru and Yuki rumbling behind me while they sit down.
"I see you took quite your time my students" our master and father  looks all of us in the eye, as he scolds us a little.
"I sure hope that all of you had a successful week while trying to master and improve your skills" he says as he taps with his feet on the ground.
"Let us begin"
