Chapter 1:Adventure Begins
It's already been a month since that fateful day. Soujiro sighed as he remembered his last encounter with Kenshi. 'Protecting People with sword' didn't fit in with the ideas his mentor Shishio had worked with. As he walked the streets of Tokyo unnoticed, he thought of his life so far. He hadn't seen anyone who made Kenshi's theory plausible. All around he had seen people filled with greed trying to sabotage others life for their selfish means.
A sudden commotion in the street caught his attention. In the midst of the crowd he saw a girl, nearly his age, trying to fend four giant men. Soujiro noticed a small boy standing close behind the girl. "Come on Love! Give us that what we want and we'll leave you alone" said one of the men. The girl snorted and said, "To the likes of you, Never!"
The girl seemed talented and was fending off the attackers pretty well but Soujiro could tell that she wouldn't last long if this continued. He saw the girl mutter something and suddenly there was water everywhere. Chaos erupted in the streets. He was dumbstruck and couldn't understand how the street was filled with water suddenly.
Soujiro tried to avoid confused mob but he collided with someone."Ouch! Get out off the way!" said the girl as she roughly pushed Soujiro away. He turned to look at that girl and saw the little boy tagging with her mouth him an apology. He nodded his head to him and noted that the men were trying to get up and the water had just dried up without leaving a trace.
He moved aside as the men tried to find the duo when he noticed a locked hooked on his kimono. He examined the locket. The locket was quaint and had the letter 'S' engraved on it. The locket was jammed, so he couldn't open it. He felt that the locket was special to the girl.
Out of total boredom and curiosity, Soujiro decided to return the locket to the girl. Thus begins our hero's adventure…..
