Tatsuya moved throughout the village, wanting to improve on strength he hadn’t really learned anything since his father died. He’d walk through the village as he’d sigh lightly. What would father have me do? he said looking downward at his sword on his hip. That is it! he said to himself as he’d take a step forward towards a dojo nearby. He’d stare at the large building it showed a large sign Three lucky students will receive free lessons from the master of this dojo if you are able to tell him a secret that interest him. the sign said. A secret… he said to himself taking a step forward into the building, as large line that stood there as crowds of people his age and older left their heads down low. A small sound receded from Tatsuya’s mouth ‘eh?’ as he’d take a step forward making his place in line.
10 Minutes Passed….
Eventually making his way towards the front there was a man who was greatly older than Tatsuya was he’d sigh saying “Next…” eventually it got to the point to where he shouted “Anyone that plans on telling me where their birthmark, mothers bra color, or their disgusting secrets leave!” Tatsuya would look throughout the room as twenty individuals left; the man would sigh getting to Tatsuya. He’d stare momentarily as the old man spoke “Well… Your secret?” the man asked looking at his clothes oddly “Where’d you get those clothes?”, Tatsuya would look up not saying a word when he spoke “That’s my secret” Tatsuya spoke, the man would sigh “Not bad, but NEXT!” he yelled. Tatsuya would quickly say “Wait! Ugh, I have a better secret…” as he’d lean forward whispering into the man’s ear “I’m a Uchiha” said Tatsuya not really thinking catching himself he jerked himself back “You have the sharingan?” the man asked. “No… how do you?” responded Tatsuya as the master cut him off “O well, you secret interest me… You’re allowed to learn under me” the master responded.
Dammit, now he knows… he said to himself trying to keep his thoughts inside hiding his outer emotion. “Alright” he said “Come with me” the sensei asked “What is your name boy?” he asked as Tatsuya responded with his name “Nice to meet you, I am Mizuka Raiju”, “Nice to meet you sir” Tatsuya responded. The rest of the boys outside walked away disappointed. The sensei brought him to a dojo room where he said calmly “Sit your sword over there”, “I can’t”, “You can’t remove your sword?”, “It’s not that… It means a lot to me… I can’t remove it out of respect of my past… Trust me I can wield a sword… Though I need to become proficient in attacks” He said as the sensei would sigh “Alright, you can keep it on for now” the sensei responded unsheathing his own sword. “Alright, attacks… You’ll be learning the battojutsu forms” he said. “Battojutsu?” Tatsuya asked curious “It’s a form of attacking using fast attack combinations to defeat your opponent” said Raiju “Alright sounds beneficial” Tatsuya said.
“Unsheathe your sword” the master requested as Tatsuya did holding It in his right hand. “Watch closely” Raiju said as he’d grip the hilt with his dominant hand and resting his offhand halfway down the sheathe, standing slightly crouched, making it easy to go into a kneeling position from Tatsuya’s point of view. “Take the stance” the sensei said as he’d do so, imitating the man’s movement perfectly, having his father make him practice imitation it was easy, his father was preparing him for the sharingan, though his father wouldn’t live long enough to see it. “Perfect” the sensei said with a smile upon his face. Tatsuya didn’t show expression he was ready for work, he never smiled in training, and was always ready for any cheap shots, his father played on his weak points refining them into strong ones.
