History
I remember that night like a vivid bad dream, a winter storm had rolled in and I couldn't imagine anyone out in this weather. I was holed up in my cabin just outside of otogakure, a nice fire keeping me warm and the ache out of the old bones of mine. I knew something was wrong that night, so I sat by the fire, my cycles not to far out of reach. My trained ears heard the footsteps before the loud knock broke me from my meditation. I could hear heavy breathing. I got up slowly and grabbed my cycle, holding it hidden against my inner forearm. Another knock as I approached the door, my old body tensed with every step. I finally unlached the door prepared to meet this midnight intruder. The howling wind pushed against the door, blowing it open. I jumped back cycle drawn, but instead of an attack, I saw a tall man holding a bundle. I recognized him as my som-in-law. My guard dropped and my cycle dropped to my side. "what the blazes are you doing out in this weather at this time of night?!?!" I scolded him. I wasn't very fond of him, but my daughter had fallen in love with him. "Please, let me in, quickly" was all he could stammer out. My ears could hear his heartbeat fast and erratic, like a man about to die. I hurried him in and closed the door, locking it behind me, there was something else out there. "what is this all about?" I said gruffly. That's when the bundle in his arms moved. He lifted the top layer of wrapping to reveal the face of my grandson. He was a small thing, probably just born. "where is my daughter?" I asked. He gave me a look that needed no more explanation. I sighed, bringing a hand to my face to hide the tears welling in my eyes. "I..I need you to take him" he stammered. "what?! What do you mean take him?!" and as if to reply a splattering noise reached my ears. He was bleeding under his coat, and badly, it was only now i noticed the trail of blood from the door. No more words needed to be traded. I took the bundle, holding it like my greatest treasure. Looking down at him, two deep blue eyes stared back at mine. He didn't cry despite the cold, and probably hunger, as if to tell me that he already understood this world and how to handle suffering. As my son in law walked out, drops of blood staining the tatami floor, he turned to me and smiled weakly. " his name is jakobu." and then he walked out. And that was the last time I saw him.
I raised jakobu like my own, though it was hard, I had never had a son of my own, and we butted heads more than a few times. His talent for sound became apparent at an early age. He had inherited my sensitive ears, So Ive been teaching him my sound techniques even after he graduated from the academy. His skill in ninjutsu is formidable, He learns quickly, picking up the Sound whistle within a day. I tried my best to teach him weapon crafting, but he prefers studying his techniques.
I haven't been easy on him, i want to prepare him for trouble ahead. He's a stubborn boy, we butt heads more than often, and he has a lying problem.. heh but he has a good heart.
