He stepped into The Empty Cabin-It was dusty and abdandoned for a while just then he looked around and saw nothing but a trap door he reached for it, it was locked and the keyhole was in an odd shape he sighs and lay on his Camping bag. And began thinking before sleeping

[jetxtreme]

Shinku paused for a while as he watches Shigo slowly lie his body in the pile of stuff. He is used in sleeping alone he find it hard just to lie beside the Shigo nevertheless, he's too tired to be thinking. He stood beside the bed carefully observing and waiting for Shigo to fully fall in deep sleep. He then slowly put himself in bed careful not to wake Shigo up. He close his eyes and slowly lose his consciousness with his surroundings.

[Jin]

Shigo awoke early. As usual he watched the Soul reaper go through a daily routine of meditation, exercises, and meditation. Shigo quietly awoke Shinku holding his index finger to his lips.Shigo nodded towards the soul reaper before begining to follow suit

[jetxtreme]

Shinku woke up surprised that everyone was already awake ahead of him. He slowly lifts his body up sitting for a while, slowly regaining his composure. He now sees Shigo's companion awake doing some routine exercise. "Did he see me already?" whispered Shinku fixing his attention to the soul reaper. He didn't move for a while observing what will happen next.

[Jin]

Shigo just shrugs and quietly watches. After a couple hours the man picks up an empty sake jug. Loooking in it with one eye he grumbles. The Reaper turns it upside down, shakes it, and tosses it away.The man then walks away. Shigo straightens up the make shift room"Well now I usually copy what he did..except for the drinking part"Shigo smiles

[jetxtreme]

"I can't deny that, that's a good training, though I haven't seen it from the beginning", Shinku pauses and took a deep breath, "Well...I'd appreciate it if you teach those moves to me while I'm staying here". He kept his stare away from Shigo but is staying attentive for his response.

[Jin]

Shigo having worked up a good sweat"Well its time to gather some supplies..if you can grab any wine brink it back for him" Shigo scampers off. The next Shinku see's Shigo he presents a cloth wrapped object"For our training"Shigo smiles as he hands it to Shinku

[jetxtreme]

Shinku get's the cloth, he wants to smile back at Shigo but can't seem to get his face to do it. Though he thought that he's wearing a mask so perhaps it will be ok. "So that means you will lead my training", Shinku a bit revived but of course did not make it noticeable stood up and did some stretching before he get's back at Shigo for further instructions. "So what do we do first?"

[Jin]

"umm well just do what he does. What ever feels best to me I focus on more. umm I guess just do what I do?"Shigo begins his copy training.The two boys follow the same routine for a couple weeks.Stealing food and small things.Practising katas and meditation.

[jetxtreme]

Filled with sweat, Shiku goes on with a daily routine with Shigo. Giving it all he got to be strong while catching his breath "It's been a long time and I haven't known his name yet. And is he really like that as if there is no one in his surroundings? He didn't even noticed there's an additional person in this shelter." He continues on with the training while waiting for Shigo's response.

[Jin]

"Oh he knows..he just dosent acknowledge us. I dont even know his name yet"Shigo being more talented in the little kido they have seen focuses on his sword training despite his advice

[siwong]

Bullet look around the corner looking at their master waiting for the perfect shot on
killing him. She then moved a little closer waiting when he has his back turned to
move and stab him in the back

[Jin]

Shigo ever smiling and aware watches the still silent man he has been learning from. Learning of both life and death. Feeling sure of his path for Shigo senses the anguish killing has brought to this Soul Reaper. The same anguish Shigo feels for the deaths.This man is not to blame he finally decides

[jetxtreme]

Shinku felt the seriousness of Shigo as he tells of the Soul Reaper. He decided to stop probing and just continue on with the training "98...99" He very silently whispers almost in his mind as he keeps on trying to struggle for more strength to go on.

[Jin]

breathlessly"I try for 1000 times..he does every movment 3000 times a day much faster than I do"

[jetxtreme]

Ashamed of what he can only do, Shinku breathlessly try to go as far as he can trying to ignore the pain and the fatigue catching up to what Shigo can do "200....201...202...just a bit more!"

[siwong]

Bullet sneaks behind the soul reaper drawing her sword slowly toward him but her last step made a loud noise. She began to realize that she was found out

[Jin]

"take.."he huffs"take your time. Doing it perfect come first then speed..here"Shigo shows how he watched the Reaper perform the movements.The reaper clears his throat not looking at the boys. He slowly performs the move the 2 are working on. slowly then gradually picks up speed. The 2 urchins can see where they were making small mistakes. Shigo smiles."I think he likes you"

[jetxtreme]

Shinku finally collapses of the fatigue. He almost fainted out when he heard a sudden noise that brought his alertness back. "Someone else is here" he whispered at Shigo moving his gaze around the shelter looking for anyone else beside Shigo and the Soul Reaper. The Soul Reaper seems to just continue what he is originally doing. Shinku tries to move as quietly and as little as he can.

[siwong]

Bullet decided to move fast trying to stab the Soul Reaper before he can do any move against her. She made a direct assault aiming for the Soul Reaper's heart and was able to successfully do her plan.

[jetxtreme]

With just a wink of an eye, Shinku saw a figure of a lady with her sword stabbed at the Soul Reaper. he didn't even noticed what happened before that. He was stunned for a bit. In his mind flashed the fire in his village, the screams of the people, people gasping for their last breath, cries, ruins, and got back to his consciousness of what is happening. He realized that he has no time to keep his attention in fear or anything. He has to do something. He tries to get up but the pain from his exercise keeps him from doing anything. "I....ha...ve...to....mo.....ve...!"

[siwong]

She takes out the sword knowing that she killed the Soul Reaper. She then switched
her gaze upon the kid who is struggling to stand up. She looked at him with very cold
eyes as if wanting to kill the kid next.

[Jin]

The soul reaper just stares at the young girl in amazement.Shigo quiclky casts the only kido he knows enough.The girl feels as if ropes had begun to tug at her limbs suddenly just as her blade pierces through the breast of the Reapers uniform.with a crack his chest becomes wet as his eyes widen.

[jetxtreme]

Fear started to fill Shinku's body and it is making him even harder to move. Nonetheless he still tried to move as much as he can

"Save your strength kid. Everything is just fine" an unfamiliar voice suddenly popped behind Shinku as he felt a hand caressing his hair. "That was a great show there little girl but aren't you a bit too straightforward?" As the stabbed figure of the Soul Reaper disappeared on where Shinku first saw him.

[siwong]

She tries to break free from the binding spell. "What do you mean" she
screamed like a little girl would trying to make a move to get out of the situation
she is now in.
