Sandcastles
He liked the sea.
Not that he often went there, ninja didn't get long holidays after all. Yet he did go a couple of times. The first time was when he was 9 and it was the year that he had graduated from the ninja academy. He want with his parents to a small house on the sea side. He loved it, as the crisp, dry air of the sea was soothing on his lungs and the wind was warm. It was then when he built his first sandcastle. He built it right on the shoreline, and quickly it was destroyed by the waves. At first he was angry, but soon he watched how each wave took a bit of his castle away, and he though it was entrancing. Since that day, he built sand castles a lot. Even when he though that he was quite too old for that kind of stuff he still did.
As he watched another of his constructions destroyed by the waves, he decided that people's lives were like sandcastles, and his was simply built closer to the shoreline.
AN:Nor much to say about this piece...it was too short I admit. I just got up one night, wrote it and well...I promise I'll do better next time.
