Chapter 4-A moonlit ride
Feore let Jumiyo run his own pace and looked up at the stars. He used to watch them often when he was young, a way to escape the memories of his brutal training. His mind wandered back to his assignment. (I have to be brave..oh kami give me strength.)
Why him? Why not one of the more experienced Shinobis? He involuntarily pulled back the reins in anger making Jumiyo rear up on his hind legs."Whoa boy, easy easy."
Jumiyo nickered in discomfort and galloped faster. Feore saw his home just up the road and sighed in relief. All he wanted to do was collapse onto his sleeping mat and dream.
(hopefully not about that girl either.) He put Jumiyo into his stall and wandered toward
his room.(gods what a day.)He slowly shed his armor and allowed his weary body to sleep.It was raining again when he woke up.He enjoyed the short delusion of thinking that today was the day he would receive his first orders from the shogun.Then reality
hit him like a ton of bricks.He moaned and got up.(I need to meditate..)Feore staggered out into the rain and let it wash over him.He sighed in comfort and wandered twords the koi pond.His reflection greeted him in the water while the colorful koi darted back and forth hoping for food. He stared at the water and tried to relax. Then he suddenly gasped,
there was the girl standing next to him.Feore whipped around but saw nothing there.
He glanced back at the water and there she was,staring at him with her sad green eyes.
She was pretty, but the deeply set frown on her face sorta ruined it.She slowly began to reach for him but a large koi swam past and rippled the water, making her disappear.
Why do you haunt me?....he whispered to the water.Why?? Feore made his way back to his room to dry off and eat breakfast.He tried to keep busy, but quickly ran out of things to do.The rain began to come down harder and a weird sight caught his eye.A large falcon was perched in a nearby tree watching his every move.Feore rubbed his eyes to make sure it wasnt another hallucination.But the bird still remained.It cocked its magnificent head at him and glided to the roof as if it wanted a better view of Feore.(im going crazy...) no youre not...a voice inside his head chimed. crazy people dont think there going crazy...
they think there perfectly fine.(what?? Who are you?) silence.then it replied again. I am Sherack ,a friend of a friend you might say(are you? are you that falcon on my roof?) oooh youre a smart one arent you? Yes,I am now stop gaping at me and tell me your name.(f..Feore)Feore eh? Well Feore I would advise you on getting out of this rain.You might catch a cold. Feore nodded, dumbstruck. Sayonara..and with that the Falcon took of into the rain,snatching a koi from the pond as he left.Feore stared out into the rain for another minute before heading to his room to dawn his armor.(I did not just talk to a bird..I did not just talk to a bird...)He rubbed the armors mask and put it on.
Talking birds or no talking birds he WAS going to complete his mission.Determined he saddled Jumiyo and swung onto his back."yah!! Jumiyo!!"The horse whinnied and galloped off down the road.A full moon shown down through the rain as he rode fast.To short of a time later Feore could see the merchants household through the rain.He tied up Jumiyo under the cover off a tree and slinked towords the house.The guards were sleeping at their posts and no one was
seen anywhere.(good...no more then one head needed tonight..)He silently slit open one of the thin paper walls with his razor sharp katana and crept inside.Again no one was seen.Thunder
suddenly boomed spooking him for a second.But he shrugged it off and crept towards a bedroom door.He opened it silently and peered inside,a girl with short black hair was looking out her window.
(this must be the heir.)She didnt notice him and kept looking out her window.Feore silently drew his dagger and began to creep towards her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jade watched Sherack disappear into the darkening sky.(lucky bird. I wish I could fly.)It began to rain so she wandered into her room.Shadow greeted her with a hungry
Meow and began rubbing against her legs."ok ok Shadow.dinner time."She gave her some old tuna from yesterdays dinner and slinked back to her room to read. Jade loved to read and write poetry..A long time later thunder boomed causing her to fall out of bed.
(owww.I wonder if Sheracks back yet?)She crawled to her window and peered out into the rain.No Sherack,but it was gorgeous outside.The full moon shining down through the rain and the trees were decorated with a million rain drops.She sighed and was about to turn around when she suddenly felt cold steel biting against her neck."Dont..move...."a voice hissed in her ear.Jade decided to do the exact opposite,she grabbed the blade and twisted it around disarming him and cutting her hand in the process.He jumped back surprised and gasped when he saw her face."Its..........you??"
he whispered.(oh my god..)It was the Shinobi she had seen in Edo.Her breath froze in her throat and she almost dropped the dagger.They stood staring at each other while the thunder cracked and boomed outside.Her hand was steadily creating a puddle of blood as she stood there frozen in fear."Give it back."he growled to her."No way baka.."Her bravery was strange to Feore.Before she had run away at his mere presence."oh,I see,
youre going to kill me then?"he said in a mocking tone."well then go ahead."Feore spread his arms wide and stepped forward so she was in range.Jade kept staring back at him with the dirtiest look she could muster."Thats what I thought." Pulling the same move she did on him he flipped the blade around disarming her,except he didnt cut himself.While he sheathed the dagger she bolted past him out her open bedroom door."HEY!!"Feore chased after her but she was smaller and more agile then he was.Jade burst through the thin paper front door and sprinted towards the stables.Feore was having trouble keeping up.His armor was heavy and he kept slipping in the mud.(Youre not escaping me again!!!!)Jade jumped on Raylana bareback and kicked her into a dead run.(faster?faster?.FASTER!!)"Hurry Raylana hurry!!!!"Jade kicked her harder and they bolted down the road.She heard hoofbeats,the Shinobi was following close behind.(oh crap!!its not a battle horse!!)
This was true,Jumiyo was the same breed as Raylana and was almost as fast.Feore could barely make out the girl just ahead of him.The horse was blending in perfectly with the surroundings and the rain was beating down harder than ever."Faster Jumiyo!!
Yah boy!!!" They were gaining on them fast.He had been hoping for her to fall off but she was a good rider and the horse wasn?t spooking for anything.(crap shes fast....)
