Dawn of the new era

Chapter 11

Shura approaches the trio and closely observes the unfamiliar red haired boy, who is slightly shorter that the prince yet taller than sakura. "You must be the new student i heard about, kaza if not mistaken?" Shura looks at the boy with a friendly welcoming smile, kaza looks up to shura with his rosy brown eyes sparkling in anticipation at shura his first master. "Thats right master! I look forward to learning from you!" Kaza immediately bows his head in respect, as he  looks up in wonder and views shura outfit, he wears his kimono the same as last time, his long silver hair tied into a ponytail reaches to his waist, his golden eyes sees right through everyone. "(This man in front of me is the master shura ka chan always talks about? The guy he admires? And now hes my teacher as well, just by looking at him he looks dazzling i cant look away!.)" Kaza unintentionally stars at shura who notices and laughs at the curious kaza. "Looks like i got myself another fine student! Why dont we get started with sword training right away? But first i wouldnt want a beautiful young lady to get harmed, would you please take a seat at the back of the dojo?" Shura assilduty gets redirected toward the tranquil sakura and gives her a charming smile of reassurance, there eyes meet in embarrassment by being in the center of attention she quickly averts her gaze and makes her way to the back quietly.          

"Now than kaza ill have you watch the prince demonstrate first with a quick practice match, watch closely how the prince uses his swordsmanship, watch him and get an idea of how he moves, than ill train you the basic of swordplay." Shura explains to kaza who eagerly listens to every word as he stands in front of shura who towers over him. "Okay ill learn everything from watching ka chan!" Kaza hyped-up now walks over to sakura, hes constantly looking from right to left at the interior of the dojo, first time seeing the place, he cant help but be fascinated by how everything appears in front of him compared to the glamorous interior of the castle, he finally approach sakura sitting in front of the shrine on a carpet at the back of the dojo and sits next to her, he views the back wall with numerous swords and a black mask with a gold flower outline design on left side of the mask that hanging on it along with the list of rules. "Master sure has a collection of swords, wonder whats the strange mask for?" Kaza curiously brings up with sparkling eyes as the light in the room reflect the light off the swords causing sakura to get interested and look back at the wall as well. "I-im not sure, shura didnt talk about it when i got here." Sakura stumped as well notices shura and the prince getting ready to train. "K-ka chan and shura are about to train." Sakura lightly puts a hand on kazas arm getting his attention and point to the prince and shura. "Your right, i better watch closely and see how amazing they are!" Kaza completely focused on them turns back in his seat, now forgets about the decorated wall of weapons and becomes engrossed in their match.     

The prince watches them walk off to the back of the dojo in front of the shrine, realizing now only him and shura stand alone in the middle of the floor. "Odd it is master shura, usual you dont do of the fighting first but of basic training?" The prince gives him a puzzled look and question his motives, shura just gives him a friendly smile. "Well than, shall we get this started? We have a brand new audience with us today." Shura eccentric behavior catches the eye of the prince who marvels in wonder considering how he always watches shura, he can tell something is off about him the prince suspicion continues to grow of him. "(Something wrong it feels, answer given he did not either.)" The prince closely observes shura trying to decipher his odd actions, shura hands the prince the same sword he had previously shown sakura early that day and wields a sword of his own, while the prince was lost in though didnt realize the sword presented in front of him, the prince readily accepts the sword. "Ready i am, this time for sure the win will be mine!" The prince shouts his determination unequaled takes his stance, once again he stands firm in one spot, he puts the sword to his waist the other hand above the sword and gets ready to draw the blade. "Thats what i like to hear! Keep up that perspective and you might some day." Shura proudly looks at the serious prince and gets ready himself. "I see your ready, lets begin!" Shura eagerly raise his voice as well hinting the start of the match begins.
