Chapter 3 : The Ordained Leader

Ayane lay seated in a wooden red velvet chair, that sat in the middle of Hajin Mon's secret temple made out of hard grey stone, it was the exact chair that Genra had sat in when he was on the throne, when he was the true leader of Mugen Tenshin style in Hajin Mon.

She remembered his long gloved hand stroking her hair softly as her head lay softly on his lap, no matter how busy he was he had always had time to listen to Ayane's problems, she missed that more than anything else, with him treating her as a daughter she felt safe.

I will take your place Genra, it is my right, hayate can not stop me, her brownish red coloured eye's closed as she made her self more comfortable in the massive chair that was to big for her, his scent had still remained on the chair, this made Ayane feel happy, yet sad at the same time.

She felt cold wind pass over her face, as the stone door of the temple opened, a dark figure approached her, not of any threat of coarse, Ayane would have been able to tell if the source was evil, it was just another ninja from Hajin Mon.

"Miss Ayane" the dark cloaked figure bowed in respect of Ayane's presence, she was a young girl at least one year younger than Ayane, you could not see the whole of her face, as she wore long black garments, the dark hood covered most of her head.

"Maya, Kai!" (Kai: hi) she was happy to see the kunoichi Maya, she had been a close friend, almost the sister she had never had, she was young, and had a horrible past, so Ayane felt it was her duty to take in someone like her self, she had trained her with all the dark ninja skills she had known.

"It seems you are now the new ordained leader of Hajin Mon, ga ka!" (ga ka: congratulate) she bowed her head again, this time she softly smiled, she was happy that Ayane had finally been made a leader, as soon as the letter had arrived from Mugen Tenshin she had realised that Ayane had been the true leader all along.

"ARE YOU SERIOUS!" she felt the child inside of her again, she wanted to jump up and scream like some little girl, but then decided that it was an immature thing to do, after all she is the new ordained leader of Mugen Tenshin Style in Hajin Mon.

"Ayane I think it is better if we talk in English, I heard that some of the leaders use that language a lot, it shows how superior you are, and they plan to make negotiations with other countries, not just Japan" Ayane gave a sharp nod to her friends words.

Well it figures, good job I had learnt a lot from the previous tournaments, they speak all kinds of different languages there!, she sat up a little more in the massive chair she was still seated in, brushing away the light purple strands of hair that covered her face, it was still hard for her to grasp, she was now the ordained leader.

"Why did hayate not bring this good news him self, I would have thought this was of some importance!" Ayane let out a long sigh, her eye's still looking at her young friend.

"It seems the other leaders have been experiencing problems, something is going on, they had been to busy to even consider the thought of not making you the new leader!" she shook her head before looking back into Ayane's eye's.

Well that's just damn perfect! I finally become something, and the rest of the stuck up leaders don't care, it's like being a child again, everyone ignoring me, well I won't have it!, she sat up from Genra's chair, a flush of heat ran through her pale skin, her cheeks blushing with red heat.

"Come Maya, we are going to see the elders!, well the supposed leaders anyway!" she walked past her friend to the stone entrance door, the purple scarf she wore around her neck, blew from behind, her friend stood there looking with worried eye's.

"We can't! it's forbidden!" Ayane could see the worried look her friend had at the moment, but she did not care, she wanted to finally face the so called high leaders, the one's who had just made her a leader, and not bothered to think twice before doing so.

She stepped out of the temple, where she was met with a cold strong breeze, her friend following from behind, cautiously trying to think of a way to stop Ayane, all of which was a total waste of time.

"lets go" they both disappeared into the surrounding forest.
