A/N: I am so sorry! I haven't had any time to update until now! Gomen nasai!!! --;; Anyways, I'll try to focus one complete chapter on a character instead of lumping it together. Oh, and do you guys think I should follow the manga or anime more? O.o?

And celebrate Benitora fans! I decided to make a storyline for him too. :D so actually I'll probably have two stories per chapter.

Disclaimer: I don't own SDK. The closest I can get to that is having all the Japanese and English manga

Chapter 2

Yuya was sitting at the table with her brother eating dinner. Yuya had thoughts racing through her brain, thinking about what the two men and her brother were talking about. What did they mean by it's too late?' And who was the robed man? What do they want with us? How does my brother know them? Yuya finally spoke up. "Ni-sama, who were those men that were here today? What do they want with us?"

Nobuzo was quiet for a moment, looking as though trying to think of something to say. "They were friends of mine. They wanted to know what job I was going to take next." He said with a smile. Yuya looked at her brother hard. "Are you sure? Cause you guys were yelling pretty loud."

Nobuzo smiled. "Oh don't worry Yuya. It's just they were worried about this bounty I'm planning to go after. Please don't worry. I promised to protect you, and to do that I can't let anything happen to myself. Everything will be all right."

Yuya was silent. That still didn't explain why they were talking about her in such a concerned way. He's not telling me the truth. Well, I'll just have to figure this out on my own!! "Ok, as long as nothing happens to you I'll be happy." Yuya said grinning at her brother. She stood up from the table and left to go back outside. Nobuzo sat still for awhile. "I just hope I can keep my promise to you Yuya."

While Yuya was playing outside, she saw the same man with the cloak on. "Excuse me!!!!!" she called to the person. "Are you looking for someone?"

The person whirled around looking around madly, and then stopped to look down at little Yuya. "Are you looking for someone?" she repeated. The person started running away from Yuya. The poor girl didn't know what was going on and thought the guy didn't like her. Then she spotted something on the ground. It was a fan. The fan had a smiling face with glasses painted on it. "Hmm..I wonder if that person dropped it and why did he run away from me?" Yuya sighed. There were just too many questions and no one to answer them. She slowly walked back inside the house carrying the fan with her off to bed.

"Hidetada-sama will you PLEASE concentrate!!!!!!!!" yelled Torii. Hidetada snapped awake. "hmmwhat? Oh, I mean, I was concentrating sensei! What are you talking about? I was awake this whole time, listening to every word you said."

"Really now. Then I'm sure you can disarm me here and now I suppose?" Torii said sarcastically. Benitora mumbled, "Never mind sensei. I was just resting my eyes..and tuning you out..and thinking about other things."

"So in other words, you were asleep!"

Hidetada sighed. "Yes, sensei."

"Good. I'm glad you saw the error. Now listen up!" Torii said. Hidetada sighed heavily, This is going to be one long lesson. Hidetada dreamed of fighting battles or one on one matches to the death. Showing off his skills to all that opposed him. After all he was a Tokugawa. But there was still a part of his bloodline that Benitora hated. His father was always thinking for the better, or so he liked to say. Like killing a best friend, cause it was for "the better of the people."

Better of the people my ass. Hidetada thought. His next thought was disrupted when another student burst into the room. "Little Hidetada's falling asleep during lessons again?" the voice mocked. It was Hidetada's brother Hideyasu. "At this rate, you'll never be able to rule Japan."

"Aw, leave me alone. Like you could do any better." Hidetada shot back, getting angry. "Shouldn't you be off with father? I thought he was going to take you with him for one of his battles."

"I decided not to today. Fighting off in battles is boring stuff. But it's not like you would know anything about that. Gotta be boring for you ne?" Hideyasu said. Hidetada was silent.

"I thought so. Better study harder or else you'll never be able to be like father." And with that Hideyasu left the room.

Hidetada sat outside after his lesson was done. Man! I gotta go out and do some real learning. Maybe I should find a sensei to teach me how to use my koyoku better. HmmI wonder if there are any good places. Maybe I should go searching. With that, Hidetada walked off in the direction of the temple. "Maybe one of the priests there knows of a school." Hidetada thought was he walked. After a half an hour he reached the temple. The priest welcomed him, "Welcome Hidetada-sama what is it you require?"

"I want to know where I can find a school to improve my technique on my koyoku."

The priest thought for a moment. "Well, there is one close by here. It's called Shinkage. Just travel down this road for a about 4 miles and you'll see it."

"Thank you." Hidetada bowed. "I appreciate your help." And with that he walked off in the direction of Shinkage school.

Hmm.I think I might use a different name. Hidetada sounds so boring and formal. Hidetada thought carefully. Then he remembered the red striped hachimaki that he received one time from Torii. I know!! My new name is Benitora. And with that he was prepared to spend as much time at Shinkage school, and forget his original name.

A/N: So, what do you think? Good story for both? Bad story? please R & R and again I'm sorry it took me so long to update. The faster you review, the faster my story will come out with more! Ja ne!

Oh yeah, and I'm sorry these are kinda shortit seems like a lot when writing it, but when it's saved as a HTML it gets way smaller. --;;
