Edit: I do not own Rurouni Kenshin, I really have to remember to put this up.
Worthwhile
Master called me a worthless student.
He said that I am of uncountable value.
My Master said that I couldn't even save my own life.
He said that I could save Japan.
Master often wondered why he adopted me.
He wondered how he has never found me before.
Master said a sword could never save Japan.
He said that I could open a new era with my blade.
Master said I am not strong enough.
He said my strength is equivalent to a thousand men.
Master said no one would accept me with this blade.
He said all of Japan would bow before me.
Master said my sword should never be swung unless needed.
He said my blade must dance until order is restored.
Master said death is not the means to the end.
He said that with one extinguished life, thousands would be saved.
Master said that I am a good for nothing apprentice.
He said that I was perfect.
So, I followed him, and will follow him to whatever end.
