The True Keitaro

Chapter 9: Ending of the Torment

Three full weeks of torment Keitaro had gone through. On the third week, Keisuke somehow managed to show discontentment in Keitaro's achievement. Yet, the truth he was besieged in Keitaro's brisk advancement.

But like every other man he could be, Keisuke was wise and well ahead thinker. He knew that any eulogy that he might give Keitaro at this point of time would cause the clumsy man to be too complacent so he'd rather choose to look disgruntled than be very sorry in the end.

It was now the first day of the fourth week. Keitaro grew exhausted more and more everyday. Not literary because of the adding weight in his armor but because his training got more and more impossible to be achieved.

"Today you finished climbing the Okinawa Mountain five times. You also have run fifty laps around the mountain, exactly two hours thirty-five seconds and twenty milliseconds" Keisuke said to Keitaro in a military general tone. "You also have finished jumping 50 trees to trees in three minutes. Plus you completed your weapon training program in straight five full hours" Keisuke continued. "I guess I'll have to give you 3 full minutes to recharge and then we'll start your next training." he said casually as he placed a scowl of discontentment in his face.

"Keisuke-senpai, I have broken by old time records and I have become more flexible, not only that, I have somehow also managed to be less clumsy. But why do I still have not pleased you? Please senpai tell me. Where I have gone wrong" Keitaro quietly said. It was just enough volume to break Keisuke's heart. He knew that Keitaro deserve to know the truth but the reality will surely bring Keitaro to his doom.

"Urashima Keitaro!" Keisuke said as formal as he could muster in a sensei's tone, a girl who happened to pass by flinch at the mentioned name. "I am here to train you to be a better man! I'm not here to tell you false praise to make you feel superior! Remember our true goal before we start and that's were you should just concentrate!" Keisuke said with a hint of strictness and finality in his voice.

"Gomenasai sensei" Keitaro said in the same tone that's almost a whisper. "Enough of the babble. Our practice starts right now. I suppose that you have fully regained your stamina! And I believe you're much more ready now" Keisuke said as he pulls out a wooden katana.

Just that same moment Motoko find herself in an awkward situation. She didn't even know why she have to sneak in the "pervert's business" as she call it. Her body just move by instinct when she heard Keitaro's name. So now she was in the bushes being as great as a spy she can be. 'What's with the armor? Is this a new tactic of his to try to peek in the onsens (hot spring)? I should keep a better look at him' this areMotoko' thought as she went deeper in the bushes to have a better look at Keitaro.

'What's with the katana? Is he trying to impersonate me to get closer to the onsens without further fuss? Damn you pervert!' Motoko angrily thought.

'Why can't you just be contented with me?... Wait!!!... WTF am I thinking?' Motoko said indignantly to herself.

'Well he's kind of cute when he does not wear his eyeglasses... But I can't like him!' Motoko is getting more confused of her feelings for Keitaro, but she knew that there was something, something else in that feeling. Suddenly her trance in mind was cut short by woods clashing.

Keitaro is standing in a perfect kendo stance while fighting with another man. 'Who is this man? If I am not mistaken his abilities can match my sister's! But my sister is the best in our clan history! Well not after the death of our legendary ancestor! But still nobody can match up against her!' Motoko's trance was again broken when a loud thud echoed in the ecological environment around them.

Motoko ducked by instinct hoping that someone hasn't noticed her yet. Thinking the sound was caused by someone who has noticed her. After few seconds Motoko mustered enough courage to look at the cause of the sound only to find Keitaro's face in a mud hole. 'This clumsy man is hopeless!' Motoko said in as she roll her eyes and give a soft slap on her forehead. Motoko turned her back on them and started walking away as quite as possible.

lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

"What was that for senpai? Why did you suddenly tripped met to fall face first in the mud?" Keitaro ask once Keisuke returned to his normal stunts. "BAKA! DIDIN'T I TOLD YOU ALWAYS PRACTICE YOUR SENSES?! WHY THE HELL DIDN'T YOU DETECT YOUR NOSY FRIEND SPYING ON US?" Keisuke yelled at Keitaro in fume. "Gomenasai senpai" Keitaro said bowing down.

lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

Time skip: after 2 months:

"Keitaro it's been a good 3 months spending w/ you. I enjoy training and talking w/ you" Keisuke said with a warm smile across his face. "I have done my part and taught you all my knowledge. You even might have already surpassed me. So from today onwards I am your equal and a comrade no more of a senpai" Keisuke said as he hand out his hand to Keitaro. Keitaro took it as the 2 man shook hands.

"Today I will dispel the weights on you, but put a replacement for it." Keisuke dispel the huge armor Keitaro is wearing but give Keitaro a wrist band an ankle band. To Keitaro's amusement he did not feel any lighter. It's like the wrist and ankle band have the same weight to the huge heavy armor.

"Never remove that band unless needed. If you do remove that I and Motsuhi will disappear in existence forever. I entrust you with that band, that band was the only thing that connects our soul to the place of living. So if you ever remove that we will also be removed from existence"

Keitaro nod in understanding, for he is no more of the clumsy man everyone used to know. He now stood in pride and confidence, his body was lean yet muscular, unlike the bulky body of the weakling weight lifter, his body was more of an athletic type. He was powerful yet flexible, he was strong yet fast. He had mastered all types of weapon anyone could even think of, but his ability exceeds in sword handling. Though physically he have changed at all, and a little bit change in his mind, but still his heart and kind nature haven't changed at all.

His hair has grown long and was spiky in front, at the back his hair was tied in a low ponytail. He was no longer wearing his eye glasses, and his eyes are more fierce looking now. Overall his physical appearances have turned into an every girls' dream man could be. With the bad boy look and the abilities he have, plus his kind and caring nature he will surely surpass even the greatest mega playboy ever or will ever be born.

"Tell me Keisuke, what was my real destiny?" Keitaro said looking in the stars talking to no one in particular in a trance. Keisuke was surprised to Keitaro's question. "I have been dreaming of this world wherein I kept on meeting someone with a blur face. I know that it has connection to my destiny. And I think that I deserve to know it now even if I had to defeat you" Keitaro finished looking straight into Keisuke's eyes with the look of determination.

"Then prove me wrong. Prove me you deserve to know. Prove me now the results of your training" Keisuke smirked at Keitaro. Without warning Keitaro disappeared to where he was once saw standing at.

Keitaro appeared behind Keisuke and pulled out a tonfa (small sword) ready to slice Keisuke in half. Keisuke disappeared, but Keitaro appeared once more at his back. Keisuke pulled out his own tonfa and was waiting for Keitaro's movement at his back. Keitaro thrust the tonfa with a force that can cut a huge boulder in half. Keisuke in instinct clashed his own tonfa to Keitaro's to prevent any damage on him, but with the force Keitaro put in the attack Keisuke was forced in his knees trying to push Keitaro's tonfa away. Keitaro who obviously had the luck in his side was trying to push the sword to Keisuke. Keisuke, knowing he had no chance disappeared making Keitaro's Tonfa collide the ground creating a huge crater on the earth surface.

Keisuke appeared behind Keitaro planning to stab him there, but Keitaro was already at control. A boomerang suddenly hit Keisuke's back making him fall to his knees coughing up little blood. Keitaro turn around facing Keisuke and catching the boomerang with a smirk in his face. "When did you?" was the only noise that comes out of Keisuke. "When you disappeared, at the same time I have thrown it, I have calculated that you will appear at my back and since disappearing needs a lot of concentration you didn't even notice it" Keitaro smiled handing Keisuke a hand to help him stand up. Keisuke accept it and Keitaro pulled him up.

"So, I guess that means I win" Keitaro looked at Keisuke. "Yes you do, but give me one last week to prepare you" Keisuke said. "A week and that's it. No more, no less got it?" Keitaro said looking back at the dark starry night. It had been a pleasant night for both of them as they enjoy the last night in their training camp.

Keisuke was walking in a palace corridors, he turned here and there until he finally reach a huge oak door. He stopped on it's foot as he knelt to one of his knee and bowed down. "My lord, I, General Keisuke was here" was the low voice of Keisuke. The huge oak door opens revealing a man in the shadows sitting in a throne.

"Speak up" was the only reply that came from the man. "My lord, Lord Keitaro had already proven his worth and even surpassed what we are expecting from him. He have greatly changed for the better and I'm afraid that he is growing so fast" Keisuke said to the man while kneeling down. "You may leave now" was the last word that came from the man before the huge oak door closed. Keisuke by instinct stood up still his head bowing down and walk backwards as a sign of respect to the man he have just spoken to.

Man in the shadow's POV:

Sitting in his huge empty room with no lights, he stares in the empty space thinking about the current happenings. 'You have impressed me my brethren. I'm expecting to meet you soon. Hurry up, be more powerful and meet me at the intersection of our destiny. I'll be waiting for you my brethren' these were the thoughts running in the man's mind as a faint smile creep across his face in the dark.
