wandering swordsmen

[James Killian]

James walked downthe road naveling at all the buildings and different people, this what it felt like to be a ninja. In the western world the woman and men that could use magic were called wizards and witches but back home he was told they were ninja and that he was choosen to train with these most dangerous men and women. Jamie would go to a massive dojo nearby and learn the art of magic and would return home and use his skills to help the need ward off the evil yakuza who had killed his parents.

Jamie walked down the streets and was given odd looks by the people around him, he was dressed in his traditional traveling gear and his trusty wooden bokken at his hip ready for anyone to try and cause him harm. Jamie knew he was different from his fellow brother monks since he was old enough to understand. Jamie was an american born child with no living relatives, his parents were killed in a gang battle as innocent bystanders and his master dropped him off at a local monastery in japan to be raised. Jamies appearance was strange even around the westerners for his hair was platnium in color, no one yet knew why his hair was such a color but he liked it for it made him feel special.

Jamie decided to take seat and snack on an apple he had picked up earlier this morning, eric found it funny how all the magic people around him as none of them carried a sword to protect themselves with, his master had punished him when he left his sword at the monastery one time. A warrior sword was their life and without it you were nothing but a dead man. Jamie bit into his apple and continues to watch the people go about their shopping.

A good friend once told Noah that his life would never be perfect. Not just because he lost both his parents in the fire and also his sisters but if he leave his fellow Mafia, they would kill him. And he knew it. The master had been paying for his Karate school, Judo, and other martial art school so if he betray him, he knew exactly what they would do to him and he knew that death was the answer after torture. Noah was only 16 and sometimes he wanted to have fun just like other kids but he couldn't, he had to work in order to get food. Life wasn't easy for him, as an orphan and as a member of a Korean mafia.

The reason why Noah was in obsidian harbor was to clear his mind. He knew that `they` could be everywhere, anywhere watching him but he couldn't care more. Noah could beat them up in a heartbeat, he was taught by the Karate master himself and he was his favorite student. His blue eyes wander around the Harbor, the reason why he had blue eyes was that his father was half French and Korean. Noah was the only one who had blue eyes in the family.

Autumn was pretty nice in New Zealand, the boy walk around the Harbor and spotted a boy who was wearing a traditional Japanese clothes but he didn't look Japanese. He chuckled a little and walk toward him "What's up with you and the outfit?" He sneered as he observed him up and down and then back to his eyes showing no emotion at all. Noah was good at hiding his real feeling, he had been showing no emotion to his enemies and most of them were scared of him for doing that. He would never show his weakness to other people.

James had just finshed his apple when a older boy walked over and began taling to him in a familiar but not so familiar accent. James turned his head and tilted it to the side as he squinted his eyes in a very cat like manner as he examined the older boy. By his appearance and voice Jamie figured that the boy was either Korean or chinese but could not peg him as one more than the other which was a little shameful. James knew that in order to be an assassin someday and a true master ninja, he would have to be able to study his enemy with such care and detail so that he would know the enemy better than they knew themselves. James knew a few different languages and so he would try Korean to see if that was the one that worked.

"Oy what is up with your blue eyes, as for my clothes what about them?" James said as he stood and placed his hand on his swords pommel. he would not draw his wooden weapon unless of course it was vital to his survival. He was still struggling with the idea of taking a life, which sat heavy with him since he wished to be a great ninja.

((Hold on.. He's speaking in korean?))

The sword which belong to the odd boy was obvious and Noah knew that he wasn't one of those who would carry it like a lunatic. He must be one of those who were well trained, just like Noah even though he prefer fighting without swords. He was pretty good but not excellent. "Never seen Asian with blue eyes?" Noah replied in English still showing no emotion. Yes, he was a little suspicious and he wasn't pleased with this young boy. Since Noah was older than him, the younger boy should respect him and at least bow but sadly he didn't do that. Noah didn't care about manners since he's starting to lose them real soon. But not to his Hyung-nim, he had to respect him, if not then death would be the answer.

Noah tilted his head a little, observing the boy and sneered. "I assume you were raised in Japan or you're wierd like that" Noah said with his famous monotone. No, he must never let anyone know his emotion, if they could read his emotion then Noah would be considered as weak. Hiding emotion from enemies was important for him and he was good at it. The coke can was still on Noah's left hand. With his two hands, he smashed it flat and threw it to the bin several meters away from him. If the boy was an idiot then he shouldn't know that he was well trained but if the boy was... Then he would think that it was nothing. From the shape of Noah's body, from the way he threw away the can and from the way of him smashing the can, the boy should know that he was good at martial art.

Out of Character:

yeah he can speak korean and a few other languages but that is okay from here on out he will speak english lol sorry for the confusion

Jamie knew that mouthing off to an olkder kid was not the wises thing to due but he was no push over and would not be bullied by anyone. Jamie stood almost painstakingly still as he kept hsi well trained on the older boy, who oddly had a blank expression and showed very little sign of emotion. Also the well aimed throw of the soda can said something about his talent since he did not even turn to look at where the garbage was when he threw the can and sank it in the garbage. Jamie was impressed but that was not very hard to since he always admired those who took pride in thier skills. However the boy was still a stranger and as such was still to be treated with accordingly and cautiously, Jamie spoke in english this time as he figured the boy was speaking in the languages so why shouldnt he,"No I have not seen an asian with blues, yes I was raised in Japan and you were born or raised in Korea" Jamie said with a sideways glance as he laughed at how smart the boy was and how dumb he thought he was in the beginning.

 

[Noah William Starr]

Noah liked the boy, even though he was a little odd. "I wasn't raised in Korea" Noah was raised in the orphan house and it wasn't in Korea, definitely not. He wasn't planning on telling the boy who he was, what if he was from another gang? The sixteen years old boy was too suspicious, he could never trust other people unless he knew them since he was little. That was what the master himself had always told him, he could never trust other people not even his siblings but Noah couldn't do a hundred percent of it. He was far from heartless although he seemed liked it. "Then I'll be the first asian with blue eyes" He sneered and sat on the bench right beside him as he lean down feeling the pain on his right arm. There was a bruise in it, but it was covered by his sleeve so no one could see.

"And I will be the first white japenese samurai you have met" Jameie said as he finished his apple and threw the core over his left shoulder without looking. The core landed in the garbage with a soft thud which made Jamie smile even bigger. When the boy sat down Jamie notice how odd he sat down and how he was avoiding using his arm. "What happened to your arm? Jamie asked trying to be alittle more kind, the boy seemed like a overall okay kid so far but they barely knew each other and so that could quickly change.

 

[Noah William Starr]

Honestly, Noah didn't care a bit about the young boy beside him either he was Japanese, American, or whatever he didn't care. But if the boy turned out to be pretty good in martial art then he would care. But again, his gang was against other gangs and he belong in 2 groups, that was wrong already but no one knew about it. What they knew was that he was a Korean mafia that was it but they knew nothing about him being in another group in Wellington. "My left arm? I accidentally hit myself in Judo class" He lied, Noah sounded normal and he show no emotion in his eyes, a lot of people didn't know that he was lying since it sounded logical but those who knew his daily activities would know that he was lying. His judo class ended last year and he was on the highest level. Not even Lolli could tell except if he was in no mood of lying. "Why aren't you in school anyway, how old are you?" Noah himself was in school as well, but he was homeschooled and he was going to graduate soon, not too long.

 

[James Killian]

"I just moved to the area and I will start school soon, I am eleven. Why arent you in school and how old are you?" Jamie said as he frowned at the questions, the boy was questioning him about school and so James decided to reverse the tables and ask the the boy in return. James smiled as the boy mention Judo, which was a rather strong form of martial arts that has been tokened by Korea he wondered how it would fair against his japanese martial arts. Maybe one day he would find a dojo in town where he could practice and compete against others.

 

[Noah William Starr]

Noah was surprised that this kid told him about himself, Noah wouldn't do the same he was too suspicious. "I'm homeschooled and I'm older than you" He chuckled a little, the boy wont know too much about Noah anyway since he was never around. One day he would be in Seoul and the next day in Wellington. He was always like that and he hadn't changed. "So I guess goodbye to freedom soon and hello dormitory eh?" Again he chuckled as he stared at the crowds in front of him. He saw some kids walking with their siblings happily along with their parents. At this time, he showed his emotion, it seemed that Noah was disappointed and jealous of them. He lost both of his sisters in the woods and his parents in the fire. Realizing that he wasn't hiding his emotion, Noah quickly look away and frowned a little. He couldn't hide it, it was his weakness. "So... Anyway... Is this place always this crowded?" He asked showing no emotion, again.

 

[James Killian]

Jamie caught the boys flash of emotion but decided against saying anything in case it enrages the boy to do something stupid and so Jamie simply smiled a little brighter as he spoke "I think it is always this busy but I do not for sure since I am new to the area, as for dorms I am looking foward my boss will be going to school with me and so I will be able to protect him better thier." Jamie laughed a little, he was so ready for school to start soon so he can rejoin his other friends.
