<br>
<i><br>
The samurai (or bushi) were the warriors of premodern Japan. Samurai employed a range of weapons such as bows and arrows, spears and guns, but their main weapon and symbol was the sword. Samurai were supposed to lead their lives according to the ethic code of bushido (“the way of the warrior”). Bushido stressed concepts such as loyalty to one’s master, self-discipline and respectful, ethical behaviour. Masterless samurai were called ronin.</i><br>
<br>
<i><br>
</i><i><b>CASTLES</b></i><br>
<br>
<i><br>
Castles developed over the centuries form small defensive forts built high up on mountains into massive complexes at the heart of cities, where they served as the status symbol, administrative centre and residence of the local lord. The lord’s samurai vassals resided in the town surrounding the castle: the higher their rank, the closer they were allowed to reside to the castle.</i></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Shiori Yakuta was one of the fewer female samurai that roamed around the regions of Japan. As it was not usual for a female to take place in the ranks, it was even more interesting for others and even a teasing subject in some cases. Of course that was something to be expected. Yet for some reason she never really cared about the teasing as it was not to the point that they would threaten her, just underestimating her multiple times and which she had proven them wrong over and over again once they went to battle. The hardest part was for the male members to accept her, the majority did. Being appointed to one of the higher ranks of the samurai she was very surprised and thankful for the lord whom gave her that position, having proven herself to deem worthy for the clan. The doubts reached the civilians once they heard the news but also them slowly started to accept her, each on their own pace. Already glad that they were thinking about it seriously and not straight out rejecting her.<br>
<br>
<br>
Creaking sounds could be heard through the mansion were some of the samurai were residing as the floor was made out of wood. The castle being in reach of them unlikely to those of the lower ranks. It was unfair but that only raised their awareness, the alartness that they needed to have in order if someone were to break in as they would probably be the first ones to get ambushed. But still they would be able to fend for themselves just as Shiori did in her days where she still needed to prove herself. Her passive and cold personality probably did not help with getting liked by the other but for some reason they did eventually. Probably because they knew she meant to do no harm to them and was actualy quite fit for battle from the day she had joined them. Sitting down on top of the wooden floor while letting her feet hang over the edge above the small pond as she would look out over the little courtyard they had in front of the mansion. Giving the men the freedom to move the way they wanted to when they would feel like going outside.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Hiro was exhausted, tired to the ends of the Earth because of how much training he'd endured the previous day. Shiori may be beautiful, but that didn't make her weak in any way, she was just as strong as he was, stronger in fact, and much more strict of a captain than he would be. The young man admired her strength, her cunning in battle  and incredible, admirable talent with the sword. A natural born samurai, no one could doubt it, and combine that with what hiro deemed a godly appearance, and it was no doubt the young man had fallen so easily for her.<br>
<br>
<br>
Unfortunately,  not one of the other men shared his opinion, they were all so bullheaded in disliking her because she was a woman they cpuld never see her in the same way. All they saw was a walking piece of beauty, uaed only in pleasing them, it was no surprise Shiori had to be as harah as she was with them during combat and training.<br>
<br>
<br>
Despite hia exhaustion however, Hiro xouls not fall asleep. It was now nearly dawn, he might as well give up for the night, it's not like he'd get a break from the captain during tomorrow's, or really today's training. The samurai sighed softly and climbed out the window to his quarters, sliding softly along the roof panels until he reached a tree. Hiro climbed down it swiftly and stretched once he reached the bottom, after looking around he quickly came to the realization that he was in the courtyard in front of the mansion. The man yawned again and sat down against the tree, legs folded, while he turned his head against the bark, gaze on the slowly lightening sky.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Shiori gazed out in front of her. The moon that was settling in the sky and the little dots which indicated the stars in the far distance. They all shone so brightly despite it becoming dark so soon. Doomed to roam around with nothing to see in front of them until they started radiating their inner beauty, mesmerizing the people who would look up to them. It was honestly pretty yet so sad if you would think about it more deeply. Also the fact that the moon could only see the sun a few times in the years that had passed by already. Time sure flew by as if it was only a soft breeze. Though she had to admit that some days the time seemed to be going slower than normal, mostly because she just did not feel on her best, when people were sick or at times when they had to wait at the beginning of a battle. The times that do go by fast are those that one enjoys, the ones where men would drink something with their friends, or lovers spending time together. Love... She had never believed in that word so she was not so sure if it would indeed make one happier as they would say to her or when she would hear people talking inside one of the bars.<br>
<br>
<br>
She laid down upon the wooden floor so she could see the sky even better from where she was situated. Laying a hand upon her forehead as she would stare into the distance as she had nothing else to focus on anymore for the day. Training went by rather well, she even complimented some people before who had a surprised look on their face when she did. Thinking that maybe she was just a bit too strict on them but that was the only way to keep them in shape. If they were not trained enough and they were to perish, it would be partially her fault as she did not do a good enough job. Of course there were times when she thought about giving up on being a samurai but she could never think about honestly quitting it. She enjoyed the people she conversated with even though they often teased her which could irritate her sometimes yet she had patience enough which she had build up along the years.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Hiro felt the breeze tickle his face, brushing his nose with a moist scent, that meant rain, perhaps a drizzle of sorts later today. The samurai eyed the clear sky, watching as the stars faded slowly but surely into the ever brightening daylight. Soon enough that brightening sky would turn into a darkening one as clouds rumbled in, turning from a fluffy, cotton like white to a dark, soupy gray. Rainy weather was the best weather, it concealed nearly everything, washed away all scents, covered all sights, blocked out all sounds, not to mention it gave the most pure, beautiful feeling. Closing his eyes, Hiro could practically imagine the little droplets coating his arms, face, blades, robe. He nearly fell asleep in the relaxing feeling of it, but was disturbed by the slight creak of wood coming from the mansion, making him jump slightly, hand flying to the handle of one of his swords as he spun around to face the noise.<br>
<br>
<br>
With surprise, Hiro realized it was the captain,  and all thoughts of sleep were wiped from his brain, he started to stand up and get to attention, until he realized she wasn't looking towards him. Perplexed, the man relaxed, tilting his head slightly as he watched her lying there on her back. It was nice, refreshing to see Shiori relaxed, calm, peaceful in a state that wasn't tense, angry and cold, Hiro nearly fell for her all over again. Sitting there under that small tree with the dissapearing moonlight falling on her porcelain face, the samurai was struck once again with her stone cold beauty. He wondered what he should do, however, now that he could see her, Hiro couldn't very well stand up and walk over, the high ranking samurai might attack him. But he also couldn't stay, if she were to turn and see him Shiori would likely suspect him of spying on her. Not good. The man stiffened and sighed softly, rubbing his forehead as he tried to come up with a plan.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Shiori let out another sigh and was doubting to close her eyes for a little while and just take a rest or stand up again to get inside and see what she still had to do there. As the little droplets fell from the sky and slowly rolled down her face she blinked a little. This was also nice once in a while but the humidity that stuck around the mansion was rather bothersome as here and there were holes, making it easy for the drops of rain to seep inside in a sneaky way. The thing was, once she noticed it, it was already too late to prevent it from coming through. As the moon started to disappear and the stars which started to retreat to make room for the sun she let out a small sigh as that meant that it was already time for a new day to begin. Doing her job over again today as newcomers were joining the samurai and since their teacher was sick she was being ordered to substitute him. It would be quite a shock for them to see a woman come instead. Like a repeat from a few years ago. If only women could be more acknowledged, it would have been less of a burden to carry.<br>
<br>
<br>
She slowly pushed herself up on the wooden floor and dusted her clothes off before making an attempt to make her way to the other mansion were all the new ones were being gathered. However upon hearing the rustling in the trees, she quickly glanced over to it, but only shook her head in return once she noticed who it was. <b>"I will see you at lunch Hiro." </b>She said to him before putting her hand up as she walked away from him and up to the other side. In the distance she could see people running towards the building, not minding it since they were still on time. Taking her utter ease as she walked over towards them though it only took about a minute before she would reach it. As she opened the door, she greeted the people who awkwardly greeted her back. Standing in front of them before beginning their lessons. First inspecting their stance on holding the katana. The majority failed to take on a good position which was now her job to adjust it.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Hiro's eyes widened when he saw her stand and he immediatly stood as well, but the young woman was gone just as soon as she'd been there. He faltered, watching her walk towards the newcomers as they arrived, and he felt oddly dissapointed at the interaction. One could hardly call it an interaction, however, all that had happened was she'd spoken a few words and left, no greeting, no punishment, not even anger. Weird. Hiro assumed that if Shiori caught him, caught anyone staring at her she'd teach them a lesson in manners, if not physically, then at least verbally. Upon reveling in the discovery, the samurai suddenly found his mind turning a mile a minute, working to find out exactly what made her act this way. Did something happen, was she upset, damaged, nervous? Maybe she just didn't like him for some reason? No that couldn't be right, if Shiori didn't like him, she'd likely be even more severe with punishment, if she did punish him at all, she might just yell...<br>
<br>
<br>
Hiro's lip twitched slightly, the ghost of a smile, now he was just being plain paranoid, it was stupid to think that way, there was no point to moping and wondering, perhaps that's how she always acts, who was he to judge. The samurai stood up and stretched his arms over his head with a silent yawn, gazing up at the sky which now shone brightly at the horizon, signalling sunrise. He atoos their for a while, allowing himself a few more blisaful moments of peace before turning his back and deciding he'd have to get ready for the day. He climbed back up the tree and onto the roof, then, quietly, Hiro made his way across the shingles to the window into his room then slid inside. Once arriving, the samurai immediatly set to work changing into the proper attire for the days activities, placing the clothing he'd slept in by the door and fastening his swords around his waist before heading down stairs for the morning meal.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Shiori did not intend to leave the punishment of Hiro behind her, instead she made time to actually think about something that would be one of the worse punishments that she could do to him. Pondering about several things, summing them up inside of her head while she was training the newbies. Their positions slowly started to get better the more they got the hang of it to her relief. However some of them needed more attention as they were probably still not used to wielding a weapon. Most of them were farmers while others were rich sons who had given up on their wealth in order to serve the samurai. She had thought they had some kind of training but knowing that they only worked with money there was almost no chance for them to actually learn the ropes of the way of the warrior. It was a bit of a shame really as being able to hold a sword was more interesting than having to deal with money and being locked up in one room to do their job there the whole day. She would not have been able to do that every single day as she would probably freak out after a while of working there. That was also why she was glad that she had been accepted into the world of the samurai where she could do what she loved the most: protecting the people. As she noticed the sun appearing from behind the clouds again, she assembled the students and gestured for them to go outside as it was more enjoyable to train there than inside of a stuffy room. Indicating for them to start sparring so she could adjust them better that way. Standing behind the student to make them go in a better standing, even though it would be awkward for some of them, but this was necessary so they would not repeat the same mistakes too many times. Though while she was doing this, her mind was also thinking about the punishment that would come next for Hiro. That was until she thought of one that would just be right for the other.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Hiro ran a hand through his dark colored hair and let out a quiet puff of air from his lips, upon walking into the main room with all the other samurai of his rank, he paled slightly and slipped back into the corner of the large room. The animated way in which the other warriors spoke and acted, getting the most of their free time before the day's activities began, reminded him that he'd be in for some trouble today what with the complete lack of sleep he'd had the night before. No rest had been given his wary muscles and bones to prepare them for today, meaning Hiro would need to work extra hard not to embarass himself like this morning in front of Shiori. He crossed his fingers she wouldn't be teaching them today, if he was lucky, he wouldn't need to see her once, perhaps they'd get a different teacher, any of the other high ranking samurai would do, even the superior ones who slapped you for putting a toe out of place. Well ok, that was a lie, Hiro did not need the strict ones, he would have enough trouble keeping up with the others with his lack of sleep as is, but if the instructor was more strict than Shiori then he'd be in for some trouble.<br>
<br>
<br>
The samurai sighed softly and sat down on the bench against the wall, leaning his head back and closing his eyes in a futile attempt to get in some rest before the day was kicked into action. The attempt was hopeless however, the other samurai were up bright active, and well rested, in no mood to be quiet so a poor guy could get some sleep, they seemed to actually enjoy keeping Hiro up, well, not exactly. He wasn't what you'd call noticed, by the others, he tended to just be a face int he crowd, which was good since it meant he rarely got into trouble, but bad because he didn't have many relationships with people. And not having any friends in a facility where allies are key in order to keep safe during battle, well, let's just say the samurai was at a clear disadvantage. At least Shiori never noticed when he made mistakes in training, she hadn't yelled at him much before, she acted like he didn't exist, this morning was a rare occasion when she seemed to have actually aknowledged his presence.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Shiori nodded in approvement from what she was seeing in front of her. They were starting to do quite well at this stage, the only thing was that they have only seen a fraction on the basics. Deciding that it was best not to tell them since that would only bring their mood down since they had the thought that things would be easy. Yet not everyone was having that mind-set as some were training hard and listened to every words that she had been saying in the meantime. Others were... well, less observative to say the least about it. The ones that were bound to become troublemakers in the near future. Since they had been practicing for a while now, she gave them a break and walked away from them in order to search for someone that she had in mind. Someone who still needed to receive his punishment. Walking around a little as her eyes were scanning almost every inch until she found what she was looking for. It was rather easy as he was still in the same mansion as before, taking a halt right in front of him. <b>"You. Come with me." </b>She said to him seriously, ignoring the sounds that the other men were making because she entered their mansion. Pulling him by his arm as she walked out of the building with him though she let go once they were a bit further, guessing that he would follow in order not to make her run out of patience.<br>
<br>
<br>
Once she stood in front of the newbies again, she introduced Hiro. <b>"This is Hiro, he will be the one I'll be showing you the attacks on. He will try to defend himself as much as possible." </b>She said as she gestured towards the other, her eyes glancing over towards him with a rather fierce glint in them, obviously not having forgotten that this was the result of him being so silent on her while he was spying on her from the trees. She really hated it when people did that so there was no way out for the other this time. Handing him over one of the swords that were laying down on the ground but they were made out of wood so no actual harm could be inflicted to one another, taking her stance several steps away from the other and raising her sword to make sure that he would not think that she was just kidding around.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Hiro's eyes were closed, just starting to doze off when he was woken up by the sound of a familiar voice, making the samurai jump to attention, eyes wide with surprise. Upon seeing who he suspected, he paled slightly and nodded without a word before following Shiori with a stiff posture and lowered head. The other men looked at him in surprise, Hiro could feel their suspicious glares burning into him as he walked as inconspisiously as he could, without success, it was no use, he would never live this moment down. So much for being just another face in the crowd, the samurai would be laughing at him about this forever, there's no way they'd let a chance like this slip up. It was rare that something new or interesting happened, and despite their military status, these men loved to gossip, spread rumors around, it was something that kept them, well, human. In other words, when there was a new development, such as one of the men being summoned by an angry Shiori, the news would be in other mansions around the Lord's palace before the day was over.<br>
<br>
<br>
Hiro sighed softly as he followed the other outside, and he paled even more when he heard her speak, so he was going to be demonstrated on, suddenly he was struck by what had happened this morning. So Shiori was punishing him after all, just in a much worse way than he'd thought, oh god, this was not going to end well. All Hiro could do now was try not to embarrass himself any more than nessecary, so he let out a deep breath, took the sword and dropped into a defensive stance, one he'd practice enough time to be fully in his muscle memory by now. He lifted his chin slightly, covering as much fear as he could and keeping up a confident expression, perhaps if Hiro handled this well, the other samurai wouldn't be as hard on him. It was all he could do to hope for it.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Shiori turned her head slightly towards the newbies who were having their eyes on them at that moment. <b>"Be sure to watch closely." </b>She ordered them only to hear a 'yes madam' in return almost simultaneously. Slightly starting to know about her even though they had not spend much time with her as students and teacher. After that, she returned her attention back to Hiro and this time with more focus. Almost as if she was going to enter a real combat and not just a demonstration for the newcomers. As she loosened her body and breathed in and out deeply, she became more calm and just at that moment she ran forward. Her hands would handle the wooden sword swinging it swiftly to the side, aiming to hit the other his right side of his stomach. This could end in several ways to be honest. It just depended on the experience that one had and if one would be able to remain his cool. Most of the beginners would be overwhelmed by a fierce opponent, other would think that this was not a big deal which could lead to their defeat most of the time. Yet the feeling of being scared could actually be a trigger to be more focused too. It depended from person to person.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Hiro watched her closely, trying not to let his fear distract him, and instead channeling it to focus more as best he could, when she swung, it was immediatly obvious the young man wouldn't be able to doge the blow without moving back, which would show weakness and submissiveness, instead he either needed to take the hit or block it. With this reasoning, the samurai brought the wooden sword down, swinging it opposite her own to create a cross, a loud 'tak' sounded as both swords met, and Hiro stopped the force, before sliding his 'sword away'. Spinning away from her blade, Hiro brought the sword back, mirroring her own attack from before but this time instead aiming it lower, towards her waist instead of her midsection. His palms were already growing sweaty, but his yes were as focused as possible, instead of watching his sword he was watching her, hoping to be able to catch the other samurai's reaction and counter it. If Hiro was able to get in a blow against her, then maybe Shiori would somehow find it in herself to not be completely hard on him, though the chance of him getting a blow was unlikely, he was not nearly as skilled a swordsmen as her.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Shiori was a bit surprised as she noticed the other blocking her attack, feeling satisfied as her training did help someone in their movements after all. The sound of their swords meeting each other midway, made her be just that bit more cautious like she always was when she was battling someone. That trait could be seen as being hesitant but it was quite the opposite as she was truly trying to make her win that way. However since the time she had arrived in this region, she had not been into many battles, more smaller ones that meant almost nothing. Yet she did not see them as the lower species, never mocking them in the first place as that was just a disgusting thing that one could do. When the other spun away and attacked with the same movement as she did, her eyes narrowed themselves as she looked as to where the sword was going. Looking at his hands in an attempt to see every single muscle moving. It did not always work but when it did, she mostly could swing back in utter ease. Taking one step forward instead of stepping away and placing her sword against her side, making one smooth movement with her sword which would probably hit the other his sword in return unless he pulled out another tricky movement which would make it harder for her to counter it.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Hiro was caught off guard as he saw her step forward, and for a second had to reposition his stance so he could watch her better, in turn missing the chance to move his sword. The samurai noticed just too late as their swords clacked, the other's pushing his own away, and forcing Hiro to take a significant step backwards. He frowned slightly, this was starting to become quite good practice, the way that Shiori moved in her fighting was different, more serious than it was in training, in training she acted stiffer, more calculated, like she was simply showing the moves, not actually doing them. It was such a priviledge to actually fight with her, and quite the experience, Hiro would hopefully remember this the next time he was in battle, which, likely, if she was still upset, wouldn't be very soon. He focused back on the demonstration, going back into his defensive stance and waiting for her next move, he didn't want to attack first because he wasn't sure if that would be ok, she was demonstrating the attack, not him, he only hoped it wouldn't make him seem weak.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The newbies gasped as they saw their movements both of Hiro as well as Shiori. Not having expected that they would be so intense about demonstrating it. When the other could not seem to react fast enough, she raised an eyebrow as he took a step back. Holding up his defence in order to not let Shiori get to him that easily. That was a good move, even she had to compliment that but not right now as it was not the time for it. Maybe she could put just a little more pressure on the other, so she did after she decided on it. Instead of being calm and relaxed, she went to calm yet dangerous at the same time. Pacing up her speed so it would not be that easy anymore, and charged forwards again, without stopping in her tracks, aiming directly for his sword, this time it all mattered on reaction and speed. If one was just even a second later, the sword would be bashed against, making her have free room to do another attack that she had up on her sleeve. Though it all depended on the other, on what he was going to do and what he was not going to do.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Hiro watched her carefully, his stance wary now that he was seeing this wasn't just a demonstration, more like an actual fight, and he was going to loose quickly if he wasn't careful. After Shiori acknowledged his move, the Samurai could almost swear he saw a flash of approval in her cold eyes, but suddenly her mood shifted, and it was gone as soon as it came. He narrowed his eyes slightly, keeping his focus switching between her sword, her shoulderand upper arm muscles, and eyes. While looking at the other, Hiro couldn't help but feel a slight bit of excitement at what he was doing. There was a strange intimacy, he thought, to the art of swordsmanship that wasn't present when using other weapons and techniques. It was like a dance, and with this in mind as the other lunged forward, aimed straight for his sword, Hiro lunged forward as well, slightly to the left of her, moving his sword around his oposite side. He allowed the momentum of the lunge to aid his strength as he swung the wooden blade around his body, aiming at her back once they passed eachother. The move was uncreative and not very original, but well executed, and Hiro prayed he'd be able to get in that hit he'd so desperately hoped for.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Shiori somehow enjoyed the time that she was spending with the other. Thinking that it was actually a bit more enjoyable but it did not show on her face at all when she was thinking about it like that. The other his focus could be felt which was surprising to her as nobody had taken this so serious before, of course there were some exceptions but still, it was admirable to say the least about it. This could maybe help when in actual times of war which could probably start anytime soon. The political arguements between the lords of the regions were becoming more and more serious as she noticed their way of talking change by time. Now they were more cautious then they were before. As the other lunged forward the moment that she did, noticing just slightly too late what he was doing with his arm which made her turn around to late and her side would be scraped by the other his wooden sword. Blinking as she was a bit astonished from what had just happened, thinking this guy may hold greater skills than she thought he would have. <b>"If you've noticed Hiro manage to hit the side of me, causing an injury and having the possibility to make one weaker because of it." </b>She told the other who nodded in awe as the fight ended. Hearing the people yelling to them, saying that lunch was ready. <b>"That was all for today, your teacher would be better tomorrow so be sure to listen to him well." </b>She said and watched them run towards the dining hall before turning her attention to Hiro. <b>"You did well also." </b>She slightly complimented him.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Hiro stopped his rush and turned back around, setting his wooden sword down and watching with Shiori as the trainees ran off to the dining hall. His breathing was quick, unsteady, slightly weary from the energetic fight with his superior, which seemed to have gone well. He started to head after them, but stopped and turned back to look at her in surprise, shaking his head to clear it, slightly confused. <b>"Wait.. wait, wait, did you just.."</b> Hiro asked, a small smile creeping onto his face, eyebrow lifted slightly in light teasing as he looked at her. The other's face was cold, blank, empty, void of emotion, and yet the flatness that was ever preaent in her voice was slightly different as she let out the slight compliment. That was a surprise, Kiori never complimented people, that meant that the fight went better than expected. Hiro had even gotten in that hit he was trying for, which was somewhat surpriaing, he'd have thought she'd dodge it.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>"Ah, sorry miss. I'll be going to lunch now then?" </b>He said, turning his gaze away from her as his cheeks flushed with slight embarrassment and he pulled the smile off his faced and replaced it with a stoic expression like her own. It was stupid to try and be friendly with her, it wasn't like Shiori would ever interact with him for anything other than professional buisness. Hiro's shoulders sagged slightly as he turned and started walking towards the dining hall, back stiff to keep up the appearance of serious from behind.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Shiori tilted her head to the side slightly as the other seemed to be shocked by her compliment. Making her wonder that she was maybe a bit too strict to the samurai whenever she trained them. But it would also be weird to change that right now. Yes, it indeed would have been. Though she could maybe try to be nicer little by little however it would change nothing about her strict mind-set about training or anything that mattered with it. That was just something that she could not distance herself from as she really believed that they needed it more than anyone else in this world. She placed a hand on her hip as she watched the other and heard him stuttering. It really was funny to see someone in that state because she had not seen it that much before with a male. Most of them would try to hold themselves in which would result in them making a weird face which was difficult to even respond on. Though that could just be her thinking that.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>"Yes, have a nice lunch." </b>She said to him. Receiving a glance from the blush that appeared on the other his face before he turned his back on her. <i>Cute.</i> She thought to herself, not that she was going to say that out loud before making her way to the inner side of the castle where the lord would be found. It was her duty to check up on him to hear the plans that he was making and even consult him in any way possible. Though he already had strategists to do that instead of her. They mostly came up with quite some good statements that she had not thought about before but sometimes they would take it too far and would need to be put in place again.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Hiro didn't relax a bit until he was safely inside the dining hall, then finally slumped his shoulders and allowed the pale nervousness to show in his face. The moment he started heading for the line to get his meal though, he realized thag was a serioua mistake. With all the excitement of the intimate battle, Hiro had completely forgotten about hia embarrassing walk out earlier. The other samurai sniggered at him as he passed, they pointed and atared, trying to get views of what injuries he'd gotten after being punished. Hiro waited impatiwntly, barely able to stand the extra attention, palms growing sweaty as he went through the slow moving line. He jumped slightly aa aomeone jabbed a finger into his shoulder blade, making the man spin around to see the amirking face of ome of his comrades. <b>"Hey, aren't you the guy who got completely pummeled by Shiori? Heh, loser." </b>The other laughed, before shouldering past Hiro and skipping ahead. The samurai inwardly screamed, and grimaced, firmly marching out of the dining hall and heading for the court yard. Immature bastards, how dare they insult him? It's not like Hiro had been crudely defeated, he'd just been part of a demonstration, in fact he'd even got in a hit against the higher ranking female samurai. He sat down under the tree, his back against the bark with one leg extended and the other bent, his arm slung over his knee. Stupid gossip, Hiro would never live this one down.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Shiori would reach the main room from the castle itself as she would stand in line with the other samurai of the same ranking as her. All wondering why they were being called out like that as none had even received some kind of explanation for it. The only thing they could do was to just wait for the lord to make his presence known and tell them about what was going. Only taking a minute or two before he arrived. The samurai took on a firm stance and bowed lowly to the lord out of respect before taking back their original position. The lord nodded in approval to their greeting while the strategists entered the room as well. Making things just a bit more serious than it was supposed to be. It was almost never a good thing for them to be in the same room unless when it came to eating together. The tension was slowly building itself up as the lord gave the word to the strategists who did not have the most cheerful faces at that moment.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>"As you know, there are some tensions between our lord Kain and the neighbouring lord Ashan. As there had been rumours spreading around town of several attacks on shops and actions like that, we would like you to patrol our land to secure the safety of the people. We don't know what the other wants neither do we know what he is planning, but I would recommend that we should be prepared for the worst." </b>With that the strategists had explained about what this was going to be about. All the samurai were surprised with the news but before they could even say or ask anything anymore they were being dismissed by the lord. And the word of the lord was their law so they could not do but to obey and return to their posts. Talking with each other along their way and discussing on how they should split up the groups.<br>
<br>
<br>
The expressions on their faces were rather clear to be noticed by anyone but they did not answer any questions as of yet as they wanted the people to first enjoy their food before they would let them know about the happenings as of now. Shiori was talking with one of the other samurai as she received her food and sat down on one of the still empty benches as to make sure the others had still some space to sit down. This time without them teasing Shiori or just talking friendly, but the aura around them was serious.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Hiro dug an apple out of his robes and took a bite out of it, chewing slowly as he looked put over the courtyard, contemplating what to do. He openes his mouth to take another bite when he heard voies, making the samurai jump and instinctively shimmy up the tree. He perched on one of the higher branches, holding his hand with the apple out to help balance as he watched a amall group of his comrades walk by. As soon as they were gone Hiro slumped his shoulders, sliding back to lie down on the thick branch. He allowed his right leg and left arm to dangle down, keeping him balanced, while his right arm held his apple and his left leg waa bent, resting on the base of the branch.<br>
<br>
<br>
Hiro sighed softly and looked up at the sky, sliding his eyes closed and allowing his breathing to shallow down softly. The soft midday breeze that rustled the tree's branches also swept his dark colored hair over his eyes, mussing his clothing. What was he going to do now? Even if Hiro had done well with the high ranking officer Shiori, he'd also basically ruined his social status, it'd be impossible to be seen by anyone without getting laughed at.<br>
<br>
<br>
Guiltily, he realized that this must be exactly how the other felt every day, what with being a female samurai, especially one of her rank, Shiori was teased all the time. If the other had done it for so long, surely Hiro should be fine, his superior actually was a better samurai and did just fine on her own, she seemed to hardly be effected by the teasing anymore. He finished off the apple and draped his arm over his forehead, watching the branches sway slowly, gently, almost hypnotically as he contemplated his situation. Hiro decided he'd just have to live with it, he could maybe ask Shiori.. no, bad idea, he'd just have to hope he got lucky and didn't have to go on any team missions.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Shiori slowly ate her meal together with the other ones she was sitting with. Keeping their voices low so they would not pull the attention of those that were from higher ranks as they did not feel like letting them know about the following actions yet. There was still enough time before dropping the bomb so they could tell it in the evening when the first troops would need to go out and check the neighbourhood. That would probably had been for the best as they did not even have the time to complain as they would need to march out of the castle and into the village. The people in the village would feel already more secure if they did that so it was for the safety of everyone really, though they had to prepared if something were to happen when patrolling.<br>
<br>
<br>
It took a few minutes before they were finished with eating up their food, the lower ranking samurai were giving them stares but no one dared to ask nor go near to them. Putting the plates where they needed to go and then went outside to make up the lists of the people who would be patrolling the neighbourhood. Of course they would not need to go everyday as that would be tiresome, but still if one did not have enough people as a few of them were sick it was very likely to go two days in a row on patrol. That was something that they just could not avoid. Sitting down at one of the picnic tables, they all took out some paper and pencils to try and think up what would be the best strategic groups. They could all choose the one they preferred, luckily they were all different, and were put in their own squad. This was going to take another while before it would be completely finished.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">As Hiro fiahed in his pockets for any more food, he was quite hungry considering he hadn't really had a proper lunch what with fleeing and all, he heard voice waft up from the ground. Repositioning his body to see better, the young samurai raised his eyebrows as he saw a large group of high ranking samurai gathered outside in the courtyard. He narrowed his eyes slughtly, his guard going up as Hiro listened to them talking in hushed tones. High ranking officers often talked amongst themselves, considering themselves too good for everyone else, but gathering all of them? At one time, off in private? Something was up, something new that Hiro, at least hadn't ever seen before, and he was intedning to find out what, maybe save his reputation by telling the others.<br>
<br>
<br>
He stilled his movements, slowly steadying his breathing down until any shift sounded simply like the wind in the trees. This was essential to make sure he wouldn't becaught, if he thought thismorning's punishment was bad, with this many samurai it would be much worse. Hiro searched the huddled crowd and quickly spotted the top of Shiori's silky haired head, before fpcusing back on the conversation.<br>
<br>
<br>
From what the young man could gather they seemed to be discussing patrols of some sort, collecting squads of samurai and sending them off into the city. Perhaps there was a new bandit ins town? No that couldn't be it, this was more serious, they seemed to be all grave and determined, expressions grim as if some dark lord had-oh no. Hiro's face paled as an unwelcome idea slid wickedly into his head, making him flinch in horror. The other lords, the only other reason was the threat if war.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><span style="font-family: 'courier new'">Shiori would tap her pencil against the wooden table while looking and speaking to the others in an almost whispering voice since the people seemed to be quite interested about the subject that they were all talking about. She laid her head upon the palm of her hand as she would look at the several pieces of paper that were given to her for a check-up in order to see that nobody had written the same person. Adjusting some names here and there for those that were still not in a group and getting the approval from the others while she did so. Receiving a compliment which was rather rare these days from her fellow samurai.</span><br>

<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><br>
When everything was set eventually she slumped down against the wooden table as she was already tired from writing everything down and having to double-check everyone their papers since she was better in these things which had proven itself in the past as she was the ones with the least mistakes on paper. Though she was not a good tactician and preferred listening to the ones who were doing this for their job. Also there were some that were better in combat also but she was close to their skills so one could not complain about that. The samurai next to her patter her back before standing up again and going back to the main building from the castle to give the groups to the lord so it would be finalized.</span></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">As the realization hit him, Hiro turned back around and slowly ran a shaky hand through his hair, his eyes wide as he fought to keep calm. A war.. a full blown war between his Lord and the other, or others, the young Samurai couldn't say for sure because either was possible. He let out a shaky breath as quietly as possible as he pondered the news, keeping his ears focused on the people below in case something happened. Hiro assumed that they must've known something like this would happen eventually, they all seemed so calm and complacid, making preparations as if it was any other patrol, only more serious.<br>
<br>
<br>
On a deeper level, he supposed that he knew it would happen eventually, the evidence had been clear for years now, it was really just a matter of time. Since Hiro had begun his training as a lower level Samurai, the Lords' relationship had always been tense, knotted with lies and deception. Now that he thought about it, he couldn't understand how they hadn't come to blows sooner. But they had. Hundreds of men, mountains of resources, all lost in many wars that occured evey time one man stepped out of line, or an argument got just a bit too heated. Hiro realized that politics these days were complicated, but war? Having Shiori and the other high ranking Samurai plan all these organized groups and extra patrols? It was madness.</div>
