Book 1 Ninja Clan - Chapter 1
Sorry I posted the wrong chapter on the last post. This is still chapter 1. Hope you enjoy.
I have yet to come up with the name for the narrator. Enjoy the read.
I had been met with challenges myself as I sat there writing of the days events. The day that I was to make my way towards the other cities around Deadwood to look for my father. Meed had been gone for a week now and that week had hurt my training. I had learned what Meed could teach me until he left. He never told me where he was going. He did not tell me why either. I did not ask him once he had left out my front door. It bothered me that Meed had left without telling me where he was going. The other thing that bothered me was the fact that he left with such a hurry that he had made me think that he had done something terrible.
He left a note on my desk and I had read it thinking why? Why could he have done this to me on the night that I was to be sworn into the way of the ninja warrior. His master would be very angry with Meed. That had been a week of the most gruesome training that I could be brought into. The only things that I had to keep in mind was that my father was out there somewhere. He was being tortured for sure by those that have him. There was only one way that I could find him and that was going to every city around Deadwood. The more I looked for him the more it would be very strained on me that he had probably been executed. That was something I could not let myself think about. And as I think of things that didn't make any since to me, and the fact that Meed had left. I could wonder why all of these things had happen to me.
My father was the biggest influence of my life and he had been taken from me. My best friend left without even telling me why. And now I had to go out and look for my father. It was not a simple task. These clansmen would be there at that tower that is far off in the valley around Deadwood city. Facing off with Meeds foes would prove otherwise difficult because of the first stop I had to make on my way out of Deadwood. The only options that I have lay ahead of me on that journey towards my death or my life. Whichever it was I would know as soon as I got there. From those letters that I had gotten I had no clue where to go and that was going to be challenging. I had to try to make my way through that valley with just this sword. If my father had seen me with this sword he would have a stroke. But I had to keep it on my person or I would be lost without a weapon on me and those clansmen would kill me for sure.
At least with this weapon I had a chance to defend myself. Meed had told me to sit down and let the wind tell me which direction to go. The wind? I had asked him with so much skepticism that I had thought that this idea of finding my way by the wind is nonsense. But he told me to keep it up and you will see. Now Meed was in my head telling me these things as of now. Some place Meed was there looking at the sunset or the stars at night. And those days I wonder if he would return to Deadwood to tell me what he was doing these 7 days. Now I sit here with pen and paper writing about my week I had been with Meed. Those days he had taught me how to survive as a ninja warrior. That was the times when I had thought how is a week of training going to make me the ninja warrior I wanted to become.
I know I needed more training and now I sit here with nothing to show for it. I am pen and paper and with no idea how to find my father. But those days that I had thought that Meed would help me I had a chance. He was the only person in my life that I had counted on. Now he was gone and I am here alone. What was I thinking about. The males in my family thought that I would become like them. That I would marry a woman and be the man that they wanted me to become for them. Of course not for me. This was the family I had not wanted to be around. My father had been there for me though and he had taught me a thing or two about Marriage. I am lost without my father because he is the only one in my life that is alive. He is my only family. I have no sisters or brothers and my only friend had gone. What was I supposed to do now. I can't just sit here on my butt and do nothing.
There was a reason I had got only a week of training. The ninja warrior that I had been following had taught me the way of the ninja warrior for a week, for a reason. Why in the world would he do this. Then leave like he thought that was all the training that I needed. How dare he leave me when I was learning so well. I had been able to listen to the wind and now I don't think that the wind would tell me where my father was. Or which direction he would be. Meed told me to follow the wind and that it would lead me to where I was headed. Tomorrow I would follow this wind that Meed had told me about and wonder in the back of my mind if there was a different way. For now I would sleep in this bed alone. Looking up into the ceiling and knowing that without a doubt that I would be lost looking for my father.
Morning Day 1 The first walk out of Deadwood city. I had been asleep for quite some time. I had tossed and turned the whole night as well. I had the most dreadful dream. I had not remembered if Meed was being slaughtered like a pig or if that was my father. It had been really dark in my dream and I had not seen anything but shadows. But I only know two people in my life. My father and Meed. But I had woken in a sweat and I was breathing hard. There was no doubt that it was either Meed or my father being blead all over the road out of the valley. There were some skeleton remains laying there beneath the slaughtering area.
Now awake and sitting up with my feet touching the ground and looking at the scar that was left from that day that I had been shot with pain in my leg. I see it has been just a week and it has healed pretty well. Not too big of a scar. But I still had a little limp every now and then reminding me of that time. So now packing up the few things I would take with me and my sword I had put that in my bag and walked down the steps to the kitchen and made something to eat. The lights were on all night and I had forgotten to turn them off. I had no mind for turning them off since they have been on since the day my father was taken. Meed had put in some new bulbs for my father. He had asked my father if he wanted new bulbs. Well those are new and they will be on for a while. Until they go out on their own.
I will never turn them off even before I leave from here I will leave them on. It will be for my father when he returns home one day. I hope I can find him. There were still a full fridge of food and I had taken my fill of morning breakfast. I wanted to take some food with me so that I had something to eat on the way. There was a rock that Meed sat on and he listened to the wind. That is where I will be. That will be my first stop outside Deadwood. The morning sun had shown down on me and I was walking out of Deadwood and towards that rock I had wanted to sit down on. That was a longer walk then I had thought. Well the beginning of a life long journey. The place where I would listen to the wind I guess.
