Today was a rather sunny day in Kirigakure, unlike the usual. The mist was thin and the sun happily and easily pierced through the thin sheet and smiled upon the citizens. Some people took notice to this rare blessing, while others simply regarded this day as any other. It was sad to see people didn't appreciate the fine weather they were given today, but Shinji would not be one of those people. The teen took note of the unusual brightness and would combat the light with contrast. That's right it was time for one of those hit or miss signature all black outfits, if pulled off correctly, this could really boost Shinji's street cred and he knew it. He had chosen to wake up hella early today, just to make sure his outfit would come out perfect. Most people in Kirigakure wore black and other dark or earthy tones, so Shinji had to be sure to add a spark of color somewhere. And damn was Shinji happy with his choice. It was such a simple look, but upon inspection, the outfit was just flawless. Long length short sleeve Heather Grey tee, a black nice pair of raw denim jeans, a black and gun metal pair of hightop Airforce 1's, then for the splash or color two gold chain link necklaces. But Shinji usually liked to layer, so on top of his shirt he would be wearing jet black hoodie that sported the Kirigakure symbol on the front in white, the necklaces would then rest over top the hoodie gently on his chest. The gold from his chains also complemented his golden blonde hair, Shinji felt like he could pull any bitch in the world right now.
But looking fly as fuck was not the only purpose of today, today he was going to whoop some dojo masters ass. Not once though, not twice, but three times. Shinji was a little skeptical, but he felt like he could pull it off especially with his Gilliam accompanying him today. Gilliam was his pet shellfish and was currently nuzzled deep somewhere in his cloting, he would probably make his existence known when Shinji would need him. He couldn't do much, but Shinji always felt comfortable with him around and Gilliam felt the same way. Now finally stepping into the light mist of Kirigakure, he inhaled deeply. Usually one could feel a light bit of moisture tickle their lungs with such a deep breath, but from the thin sheet that lay over the village today, one could breath as deeply as they wanted. it was a weird thing to appreciate, but Shinji didn't care it was nice regardless.
Leaping rooftop to rooftop, Shinji arrived to the dojo. It was near the outskirts of the village and looked like it had some time and experience under its belt. With that thought a way of nervousness warmed Shinji's body, but he could back down, he was a ninja, a Kirigakure ninja, and when ass needed kicking, Shinji wouldn't be on the receiving end for not following through with mission orders.
He walked up to the traditional Japanese looking building and as he reached to slide the door open, he noticed the array of shoes organized outside the entrance. Fuck Shinji really didn't want to take away from his murderous outfit, so he pondered on what to do for a moment. Knowing he would have to swallow the pill, he removed his shoes, then slid open the dojo door. Stepping in there was a slight decline in elevation and it made his chains jingle and immediately people slid open another door directly in front of Shinji and approach wooden swords drawn. Ehhh I'm here on a mission . . . Shinji pointed to his sweatshirt, to show he was a Kirigakure shinobi, and who he assumed to be the dojo master stepped forward. You ninja are so irresponsible, what happened to headband tradition, just look at the way you are dressed. He waved a hand up and down showcasing Shinji's clothing.
Shinji didn't mind the ninja remark, he knew he wasn't the best when it came to the headband rule, but downplaying his threads . . . hell no. Shinji walked forward to a puny looking student who was, like the others, wearing his uniform white training Gi. He placed his hand on the blade of the wooden sword and pried the boys grip off. Silence was heavy as Shinji tested the weight of the weapon with a few one handed swings. Let's get this over with before I really get pissed yah? Shinji displayed a light smile that masked his rage and without waiting for a reply, he headed towards the room all of the dojo's participants had came from. A white clothed arm extended blocking his path . . . it was the master. Dressed like that ha. I will not let your ignorance defile my dojo, this demonstration will be held outside on the sparring grounds. Even better, Shinji could re-equip his lonely neck breaking shoes and put this man in his place. Demonstration? Ohhh I get it you think you're gonna shame me in front of you students. Hahaha don't be foolish yo. Shinji slipped on his shoes, which to his liking were being surrounded by the dojo's students. With a quick fix of his pants leg, so it would fall over the tongue of his shoe the way he liked, he followed the old school master behind the dojo, his students trailing close, whispering about Shinji's clothes.
Taking no time to start, for both battle participants were aggravated towards the other, the battle started with no warning. The dojo head charge with a traditional two handed Kendo attack, while Shinji, who had made a unique style of his own consisting of two handed and one handed strikes, guarded. He was scared, he just wanted to get a feel for the dojo masters strength. Clashing wooden practice swords, Shinji was in a diagonal two handed guard, one hand on the hilt while the other applied pressure against the back of the wooden edge. He easily transitioned out of the stance with a quick juke to the right, which would make the master slightly stumble forward from his weight being forward and Shinji's support disappearing.
Then utilizing his improper style he let his sword follow through into the ground, now in front of the off balance sensei. Bringing it back through its previous path, the sword sliced diagonally from the earth to Shinji's right side. It easily connected, bruising a few ribs of the grunting dojo master. His students winced and gasped, but Shinji wasn't done yet. With the pain from the blow stunning the master for a quick moment, Shinji decided to go for the finisher. Bringing the blade again down the path, he aimed for the dojo masters back. Come on old man, I feel kinda bad right now. Shinji grunted out during the breath before the strike. Then inches before the blow landed, the master pulled off a truly advanced maneuver. Going with the weight shift forward, he placed his left hand on the ground and spun himself quickly to block Shinji's blow. He was now back to the ground and Shinji's blade was grinding against his. Your unusual style isn't that bad, but don't underestimate the basics of Kendo. Shinji scoffed for the man having his mind set on Kendo gave him extreme tunnel vision. True the man knew Shinji didn't fight traditionally, but Shinji still was taught the basics . . . and he didn't like them. He always felt so limited, with both hands on his blade, the amount of attacks and the amount of mobility he was allowed, just wasn't appealing. So Shinji decided to demonstrate for the poor geezer why he choose not to use Kendo. Your tradition has closed your eyes to creativity, I will show you the power of my unique soul old man.
Hunching over the mans guarding frame, Shinji lifted his sneaker guarded foot and slammed it upon the clashed blades. This pressed the mans sword against his own chest, but Shinji wasn't done there, he wanted to shame the man like he attempted to shame him. The students circled around the scuffle looking for a better view, some cowered at what they saw and others looked as if they were about to jump in. They knew not to though, this was a battle between these two warriors and intervening would dishonor them and their sensei. Shinji lifted his blade, but kept pressure with his foot against the mans weapon, binding him to the ground. Tauntingly assuming a Kendo stance, he reeled his sword over head to deliver the final blow. He whispered under his breath and closed his eyes peacefully before the sword was brought down. Majority of the crowd of students turned away and shielded their eyes, and did the sensei. And in this grim moment a shout was heard, breaking the thin resting mist's silence.
Shinji grinned then chuckled and he examined his work. A dojo master, yelping in pain from a shellfish pinching his nose. When Shinji had whispered under his breath, Gilliam had heard his plot and successfully followed through. One student found the bravery to peek through the slits of his fingers and then broke into laughter, eventually the others did to. As the masters eyes opened he sighed, seeing he wasn't on the other side, he could have sworn he was dead. Haha I'm not a killer, though I am a ninja, just wanted to show you your ways not always right. Right Gilliam? Shinji withdrew his blade and stylish frame from over the man and Gilliam made a high pitched squeal. Crawling onto Shinji's shoulder the two exchanged a smile. Well anyway I'm off, hope your future demonstrations go a bit better than this. He lodged the wooden blade he was using into the ground and headed out. For he had caused enough chaos and made enough children question there teacher's teachings today.
