The Mark
Chapter 7: Departure
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Leo woke, again in his bed. He signed. He better go and see if what Mizu said was true. He looked around to check his brothers and masters where asleep before slowly getting up and creeping away.
Using his new skills, Leo snuck into the tribunal's hall. There were the tribunal sitting and talking quietly to each other but loud enough for Leo to hear.
"……..we must extract the beast soon" Juto was saying. "He is becoming more powerful everyday. The incident that occurred is only a minor act compared to what that power could do…."
Leo didn't want to hear another word. As silently as he entered he left, but instead of going back to his bed, he started to walk towards the ocean.
"They were right" Leo kept on muttering to himself. "They do want to kill me."
"Young one!" said a voice behind him. Leo spun around to face the Ninja Tribunal. Chikara stepped forward.
"Where are you going young one?" she asked.
"Home" Leo said simply turning and starting to walk away. The tribunal looked at each other.
"Those who train under us, will only leave when we decide!" said Juto. "And you must return to your quarters!" Leo didn't stop. "Your masters commanded it!" he added in a last attempt for Leo to stop. It worked……… kinda.
Leo stopped when he said 'masters' and spun around, his fury written all over his features.
"Masters?" he said, trying not to shout. "You are not my masters. Masters care for the well being of their students and for their safety! Not for the safety of some stupid artifacts!! They don't secretly plan to murder their student's for no reason!!! You listen so I only have to say this once……………….. YOU ARE NOT MY MASTERS!!!!!!!"
With that Leo lunged forward at an incredible speed, completely surprising the tribunal. Leo used every skill he had learned, every power and knowledge to attack his so called 'masters'. The tribunal were completely baffled by Leo's skills. They only expected him to be a certain level. Not this. They could only just manage to stop his attacks. Finally Leo stopped. The area around him was completely ruined. The tribunal stood before him, breathing hard. They were exhausted!!
Leo turned again and walked away. As soon as he reached the cliff he manipulated the earth to make a elevator type of thing made out of rock that carried down to the sea. With one final look at the monastery, he turned and used his speed and water manipulation to run on the water, heading towards New York. Heading towards his home.
The tribunal watched him go, knowing that he will not return and can not be stopped. They knew they must return to the hall and plan for their next meeting with the new….. and certainly powerful Ryuu Tatsujin.
