Ryu stood at the entrance to the Mirai Hoshi dojo and stared at the
sign with it's name silently for a few minutes then sighed and shook
his head. "Three hundred years, and I have to take it back. How
dissapointing." He stared at it for another few minutes before shaking
his head sadly and walking inside.

He stopped a few feet after entering then looked around, clearing his
throat slightly then speaking carefully. "Excuse me! My name is Ryu. I
wish to speak with the master of this dojo, please. Immediately."

A woman in her 70's enters the room. She looks aged but by the way she
stands Ryu can tell that she has spent her life conditioning her body
and training exhaustively. She does not stand like an old woman. She
wears a robe in dark greens, the colors of the dojo. She eyes him as
she enters. It is the careful eye of a sage and not just one who
simply observes things.

"I am Mirai Hoshi. What service can I be to you?" The woman states.

He looks at her for a moment, examining her carefully before sighing,
and shaking his head tiredly, mumbling something under his breath. "My
name is Ryu. Some time ago, I left a sword here. I have come now to
reclaim it."

"A sword? Well, heavens, dear, we have many swords. How long ago was
this?" She asked. She hadn't any knowledge of someone misplacing a
sword. That kind of thing normally doesn't happen. People generally
keep very good track of their swords.[03/11-1JING]

He blinked slightly at the question, tilting his head some and staring
at her briefly, then sighing and looking up, eyes glazing slightly for
a moment. "Three hundred years, 7 months, 8 and a half days. It was, a
token. Long, long ago now..."

The woman gave him a blank yet expectant look. It wasn't a difficult
question.[03/12-1JING]

"I beg your pardon? How could it be so long ago? " [03/12-1JING]

He sighed softly and closed his eyes to calm himself before opening
them again and smiling. "I am immortal, madam. I have slept through
millenia before, in a cave. Three hundred years becomes very little
time in it's turn. Now, if you would, please." [3/12-1TRAV]

Jinggo78 (3:23:00 PM): Immortal? Hmm I'm not sure I beleive you. And
you haven't told me the name of the sword yet. *She does beleive him
since her best student happens to be a Kitsune who's been alive since
the end of the Feudal Era but she doesn't let him know that*
DJones9580 (3:27:25 PM): Name? It never had a name, it was simply the
dragonslayer. That was it's name, it's purpose, and why it was made in
the first place. Why would it need a name beyond that? (This is why I
slept in a cave for centuries. Little mortals and thier little quirks,
while I do love them sometimes, other times, they can get so very,
very annoying...)
Jinggo78 (3:30:17 PM): Ah that sword. And you've come to take it? *she
asks and beyond unfolding her hands from in front of her she doesn't
budge. It may be a sign she's ready to oppose him regardless of who he
claims to be*
DJones9580 (3:33:56 PM): *He blinked slightly and looked at her,
tilting his head curiously and simply staring at her for a moment.*
You...? No, of course not. And, I have come to RETRIEVE it. It is my
sword. I am it's proper owner. The one I gave it to as a gift has,
unfortunately, gone the way of most mortals....I wish to have it back
now.
Jinggo78 (3:37:04 PM): But you must understand that sword has a
history and is... not just a sword. Most swords made of metal are used
merley as weapons. To describe this sword as a weapon is quite a vast
understatement. It does more than cut flesh. I need to know more about
you and what you plan to do with it. It is not a thing I can just hand
over to a stranger who comes to make outrageous claims.
DJones9580 (3:52:33 PM): Dear lady, I know every single story told
about that sword, and more that have been forgotten. It has slain gods
in time long ago, and things that would laugh at the gods most mortals
know of. Once, long ago and far away, I gave it to a young man with
brown eyes, to build an empire to last a thousand years and drive back
the darkness, and no one remembers he even existed.
Jinggo78 (3:55:08 PM): *A certain fear can be seen in her eyes.* ....
The sword is too powerrful and the fact you know how powerful it is
makes it all the more certain I can't let you have it. It would be
better in the hands of someone who doesn't know anything about it.
*she backs up a little and a few of her students can see her alarm.
They stand up from their sitting positions*
DJones9580 (4:12:28 PM): *he sighs softly and shakes his head gently
adjusting his stance just slightly* I'm Sorry Nina. I lost my patience
with the mortals again today. I know what you would say, if you were
here, but it is simply so hard sometimes....
Jinggo78 (4:15:33 PM): *Mirai's eyes widen and she takes a stance* I
hope you know what you are doing. *and that's about as polite a
warning as she's going to give. Though of course she doesn't know what
she's getting into it doesn't much matter since she must defend her
dojo and herself no matter who her opponent is*
DJones9580 (4:24:49 PM): My dear lady, i've wrestled with nightmare
itself and won, and watched as wars were raged that tore apart the
world....*he is, by now, far beyond annoyed at this human and quite
ready to simply murder them all and burn the building, if not the
city, to the ground* Now then. Return my sword to me NOW. Or things
will go very badly for you.
Jinggo78 (4:27:00 PM): [well don't kill everyone because then Shantiko
won't know what happened. Even if she just comes back to a burned down
dojo that won't move the story along because she won't know who did it
and won't be able to make any kind of connection in the story]
Jinggo78 (4:29:05 PM): The sword is in a secret place. That secret
will die with me if you dare to take my life. I won't be cowed into
making the wrong decision. Your claims of strenght don't scare me.
*someone then brings her a sword which is not THE sword but a sword.
They quickly run off not wanting to be any more a part of this. She
unsheaths the sword and takes a stance.*
DJones9580 (4:33:45 PM): And if I defeat you, you will tell me where
my sword is? *he looks curious, but not at all hopeful about this*
DJones9580 signed off at 4:35:48 PM
DJones9580 signed on at 4:39:48 PM
Jinggo78 (4:41:36 PM): [you back? what happened?]
DJones9580 (4:43:13 PM): [Computer error.]
Jinggo78 (4:43:54 PM): Ryu... I won't give you the sword. *And that is
as simple as an answer she can give. She is willing to die to protect
the sword.* [but don't kill her if you really want him to have the
sword. The only other person who knows where it is is Shantiko]
DJones9580 (4:50:23 PM): *He sighed, and shook his head slowly,
summoning a beam of white light into his hand, watching her
carefully.* I COULD do it you know. Kill all of your students, tear
the knowledge from your mind, burn this place to the ground as a sign
of my wrath, and retrieve my sword, MY sword, mark that, myself.
But..... At the same time....
Jinggo78 (4:54:27 PM): What? Go on... What have you got to say? *she
said and she was getting impatient she could see how strong he was now
and realized this was not the best morning for this. Shantiko was away
on break the only person who could help. None of her students had any
skill to speak of. They were only students.*
Jinggo78 (4:55:15 PM): [just as long as Shantiko can find out what
happened you can do what you want here. The master isn't THAT
important. Play it true to your chartacter]
DJones9580 (5:01:07 PM): *He ignores her completely simply staring
past her at the wall and sighs, tossing the beam of light at her, and
past her, cutting her cheek with it.* Nina....Would probably not like
it, if I killed you. I give you a little time, to rethink your
decision, so that you may return what is mine peacefully. If you do
not.....*He raises his hand gently, then lowers it, a large bolt of
electricity and magical power slamming through the ceiling and into
the floor between them, the force shaking the dojo.* Then when I
return, even Nina, will not be able to save you. *He turns around,
ignoring her completely, and begins walking out.*
