Chapter 2
Dreams, Assignments, and High School.

"I's gonna catch joo Katsuo!" I hear a little girl cry out laughing. I look in the direction of the girl and I see the one year old in my drawing. She's running with a little boy playing and having a good time. That name sound familiar. Then the boy stops. He is looking in the distant for a moment.

"Mitsuko, go to your momma." Wait, that is the same name as the girl I met earlier tonight. She looks at him confused, not sure as to why he told her to do, "Katsuo?"

"Just go Mitsuko." He states to her pushing her in the direction of her mother and runs in the opposite direction. Shadows engulf the boy and he disappears. The shadows come towards me now. Fear overcomes me and I start to run away from it. No matter how fast I run the shadows gain speed and catch up to me. The shadow swallows me. I feel it going into my mouth. It's sucking the life out of me.

"Kei! Kei! Wake up!" I shoot up out of my hammock only to fall onto my butt. I breathe heavily. It was just a dream. A super freaky dream.

"Kei? Are you alright. You were screaming in your sleep." My friend Hwan asks me. "Yeah. I'm fine. It was just a dream." I say getting up. What was that dream about. I haven't had a dream like that before. And who is that boy. He looked kinda like me? I shrug it off. It's probably nothing. I'll meditate about it later if I have that dream again.

"Did you just come in cause I was screaming in my sleep?" I ask Hwan. He shakes his head no. "Master Saki wanted to speak with you." I let out a sigh. Ever sense I was little Saki, also known as the Shredder to our enemy's, has had me go to his room every morning. When I was old enough to pick up a wood katana he started to train me. I've mastered many different weapons sense then. He said that I am being trained for a purpose. To kill his enemy's. And when the time was right he'll give me the task to kill them and their offspring that is older than a small child. Unfortunately I have a hunch it is the Hamato's.

"Alright, I'll be there shortly." I go into the restroom and turn on the cold water and get in, feeling the water run over my body. I don't like stealing, killing, or hurting innocent people. I never have. But that is what the foot does. According to records they didn't always do that. They used to be noble and save peasants from evil emperors in Japan. The only time they did things like this was when their master was evil. Like the current master now is evil. I turn off the water and get out. I look at myself in the mirror.

Is this the life I want to live. As a assassin? Or do I want to be someone else. Yeah, I'd rather be someone else. But unfortunately again, I don't have a choice. It is my destiny to do thing I never wanted to do. Maybe that will all change one day. The day when we get a new master.

"Kei hurry up! You know how he hates to be kept waiting!" Hwan shouts out snapping me out of my thoughts. I quickly dry off and pull my hair back and braid it so it is out of my way for my daily training. I tug my ninja garb on and go out. I run into master's room and bow. "You requested to see me master?"

"Yes I did Kei. Have you got something to tell me? Like the girl you saved yesterday?" You can't hide anything from him. Damn. "Yes. The girl is called Mitsuko Hamato." I prepare for him to punish me but he doesn't. Instead he just laughs. "Ah perfect. This shall fit into my plans perfectly." His plans?

"What do you mean.. master?" I ask him. "What I mean is your going to purse her. Makes her trust you. Love you. Take you home to her family and get them to trust you. And when the time is right you'll strike and end this war. And bring me back their heads to me. This is what you have trained for. It is your destiny." He tells me walking around me with his hard cruel eyes looking at me. He expects me to do this without fail. I don't want to. I won't! But, I have to obey him.

"I'll, not fail you master." I say softly. I hope I can prolong the outcome of this as long as possible, or at least be able to tell them the truth and hope they'll not kill me. "Good, I've enrolled you into her school and all of her classes. The school supplies are in your room already. All you have to do is make a good impression on her today, Kei. Oh, and your last name for school is Di'mex. You may leave now."

I bow and leave going back to my room. How am I going to get out of doing this? I don't want to hurt anybody. Especially Mitsuko. I don't know why, but I feel like I'd rather die than harm her in any way. God, please help me through this and end the life of the Shredder so I don't have to do it.

Me: Oh boy, Kei's life is a super mess right. Don't worry Kei I'll find a way to get you out... eventually... And don't little kids sound so cute. Epically when they can't speak words properly.^^
Kei: *clears his throat*
Me: Okay okay I'm getting to it. You worse then your dimensional relatives.-_-
Kei: Well I want to see what going to happen next.
Me:*eye roll*
