Kyoshi's Training:

The Shyguy Order!

In the Forest on the outside of Yoshi Kingdom, Kyoshi leapt through the trees with elegance and ease, none of which he previously possessed. "Heh, this whole "sensing surroundings" thing is super easy once ya get the hang of it!" Kyoshi exclaimed happily to himself when suddenly, from an unnaturally far distance away, Kyoshi heard a scream. He landed on a branch and sat still waiting for another noise which he quickly heard in the sound of another yell." Kyoshi quickly changed directions and began dashing towards the noise.

Meanwhile, where the noise originated. In an empty pocket of the forest, sat a small orange Yoshi with a red backpack and blue shoes who was crawling backwards trying to get away from the 4 men in red hoodies and white masks with 2 eye holes as well as a smaller mouth hole who approached the child with weapons in hand.

"P-Please! I didn't do anything!" The boy yelled in terror as he leaned against a tree. There was also a 5th man standing in front of the others. He wore a yellow hoodie with a similar mask who held a long spear blade up to the child's neck.

"By Order of the ShyGuy Clan. You are hereby executed!" yelled the man before raising his blade. As he was about to stab the boy, Kyoshi suddenly flew out from the trees with a powerful kick straight to the side of the man's face, cracking his mask and causing him to fly across the ground into a tree. The other men were shocked and paused instead of attacking Kyoshi.

"Nature Technique: Rooted Constriction!" Kyoshi exclaimed before large roots shot from the ground and wrapped around the 4 men, subduing them without fail as they tried to squirm they're way out. Kyoshi turned his head to the boy before asking,

"You ok?" The boy reluctantly nodded as his entire body shook. Kyoshi walked over to the man in yellow and roughly grabbed him by the collar of his yellow hoodie and lifted him up, ripping the mask off of the man's face.

"What are you freaks doing this close to the border! You know damn well you're not supposed to be anywhere near here, especially not to terrorize a kid!" Kyoshi yelled at the man who said nothing in response.

"You will get nothing from him! Whenever a ShyGuy's mask is removed we submit to a vow of silence!" one of the 4 men subdued exclaimed. Kyoshi dropped the man and kicked him in the head, knocking him unconscious, before walking over to the man who had just spoken.

"Alright then, how about you tell me." Kyoshi demanded.

"That boy is related to a traitor of the ShyGuy Clan, by the ShyGuy Order he shall be sentenced to death!" The man exclaimed.

"Wait, that sounds familiar." Kyoshi said.

"No surprise, members have been leaving the ShyGuy clan left and right for the past few months...ever since that moment," replied the ShyGuy.

"Before I ask about what moment you're talking about, do you know someone from the Sano family?" Kyoshi asked.

"You mean the very treacherous wretch that started this whole thing! Of course I do, she took her son and deserted us long ago."

"Huh, makes sense. Now, what moment are you talking about!?" Kyoshi asked as the roots tightened around the man.

"Gyaaah!" The man exclaimed in pain before saying,

"The civil clash within the ShyGuy clan! It started with Sano and years later, others began agreeing with her ideals and slowly, more and more ShyGuy members left, hoping for a new life. But lately, Lord Clan Leader Shinjaku has been sending out forces to destroy the traitors and their families as a means of warning anyone else who may be plotting to leave the clan!"
