Sensei is mad again. He started it himself anyway. I was just trying to serve him some food I've made and he said it tasted like shit. Like, seriously? Is this guy for real?

Perhaps he's still mad about what I said about him and Sedusa. I don't give damn, frankly. But now I'm locked outside the place I call home...home...?

I knock on the wooden door several times. Nothing happened so I start yelling.

"Open the bloody door you old jerk!"

"Hey!? Open up! You coward! Afraid that I'll kill you?!"

"Get your ass over here now you wimpy moron! You stupid idiot!"

The door finally opens. Sensei looks at me with an irritated look in his eyes. I glare at him and walk past his shoulders into the house.

I hear the door being closed. Suddenly, I get pulled by my arm. The shinobi pins me to the wall and stare deep into my eyes. I'm trapped between his arms.

"What?" I glare back at him.

He doesn't say anything. Instead, one of his hands travels up to cover my eyes.

Is this happening again? Last time he did it... he's repeating his actions from that night.

My prediction has been confirmed. I feel his lips touch mine demanding a forceful kiss. I'm so stunned. Why the hell is he doing this now?

He releases a short moment later. The damn mask is covering his face once again. I stare into his dark forest green eyes. They look like they have the urge to say something.

We keep in silence as his arms sneak around waist hugging me "Sensei..."

"Shh... I apologize for being coarse earlier. You put too much amount of salt into it"

"Yeah but can you stop talking in that way?"

"I don't get what you're trying to say"

"See? That stupid formal...tch, never mind"

He chuckles. "I can say whatever I want, Kaoru. Bare with it"

"It's just... you've been talking like that ever since we've met. Well, most of the time" I close my eyes and put my weight on him.

"It doesn't matter which way I talk. The thing is you can understand me, can you not?" He says whilst holding me firmly.

"Yeah. It takes a while, though" I say.

"I have something for you, Gakusei"  he lets go and pull out something.

I open my palm for the 'gift'. He places a silver shuriken on it.

"A shuriken is like... so cool!" I grin.

"Squeeze it" he says sternly.

I open my eyes wide. "Huh? Squeeze? But... are you crazy?! This thing is sharp af!"

"Just do it"

Is it a trick? It's probably alright. He wouldn't want to hurt me, would he?

I squeeze the weapon without considering twice. A gasp escape with throat when the sharp impact cut through my palm.

I quickly release the shuriken and drop it.
My palm is bleeding like crazy. I bite my lip and hold my hand. "Shit... I thought you said it's ok!"

"I've never stated that. That's your discipline for slapping me and throwing insults earlier" he says.

"Curse you stupid old man"

"I'm not old. We're the same age, Kaoru. I'm quite ticked off about your attitude recently. Next time you do something wrong, it'll be corporal punishment for you"

"C-Corporal..? You mean, using violence?!"

"Yeah" he leans in close to my ears and whispers. "I'll tie you up on the tree branches with your body hanging down and hit you rapidly like a punching bag. No mercy"

I shut my eyes and gulp nervously. "Don't you think that's too harsh?"

"Uh hm. So you better not piss me off. If you do, then brace yourself. Unless you're masochistic, that is" he turns his back at me and walk away.

"Use those flowers" that's all he says before disappearing to nowhere.

Just like that?! He's not gonna help me with my injuries?!

His threatening words earlier creeps me out so bad, though. Is he really going to use violence on his student?

Well, he might... I'm just an apprentice, after all. And he is damn dangerous! Where the hell did he go anyway?!

My palm is hurting. He advised that I should use those flowers. I know he meant those bunch of violet flowers around the cottage.

But seriously, though. I don't deserve to suffer this much! All I did was giving him a piece of my mind! This is so frustrating!

I go outside and pick up some of those flowers. How to use this as medicine? Eat it? Nah... but is there any other way?
Maybe put it into hot water and drink? That's the most likely possibility. Or perhaps I should just put on my injury?

This is so damn stupid. He should've give me some instructions. Finally, I decide to boil water and put one of the flowers in.

The water soon turns purple like the plant. Is it really okay to drink that...thing?

Sensei says so. But there's no guarantee! What if it turns out he was trying to hurt me like earlier?!

Who cares? Worst option is death, yeah? It's better than being that jerk's punching bag to release his stress...

I lift up the glass and gulp down the liquid. It tastes sweet, surprisingly. It's so good! 

I finish and look at my bleeding palm. Nothing unusual happened. I was wrong then.

Letting out a depressed sigh, I walk up the attic. I take the bandage from the drawer and wrap it around my palm. Forget the magical herbs. It'll eventually heal on its own.

I lay down on the bed and take a nap. I'm devastated as hell...
