Masaru
Masaru drank a water he bought for today's training, he sheathed his katanas. He turned his back, and went off, but something caught his attention. As he turned, he heard a voice, someone behind him. A samurai was standing in front of him, Masaru glared at the samurai. Maseru agreed with the man, Logs isn't a worthy opponent. Who are you anyway? Masaru held the sword, he mustn't let his guard down. Bandits were anywhere, one day, he was attacked by bandits near a forest. ★ Nickname: MASARU ★ Status: BORED ★ Tags: -

Masaru would find a Samurai had been watching his training since he began. The man seemed to observe his every move, almost studying, and yet his demeanor showed no real interest. As Masaru cut the logs into pieces, the man let out a sharp whistle. "Well, looks like the guy's got a bit of skill!" He stood to his feet, dusting the dirt off his ass, and approached Masaru, leaving a good gap between the two before he stopped. The Samurai observed the chopped wood closely, grunting as though he was putting something together in his head. "Logs ain't much, though."

The boy's tense grip only made the Samurai grin. He was watchful, it seemed, but not watchful enough to notice someone who'd been near him for as long as he had. Though, despite the grip he currently had on his sword, he would find the Samurai's at his throat in an instant.
"I'd watch who you point your blade at, if I were you, kid."
He grinned, pulling his sword back and sheathing it. "The name's Shibata Masanobu. I'm a retainer to lord Oda Nobunaga." Masanobu looked the kid up and down, still only observing him.

Masaru was stumbled, a sweat dripped from his forehead. The samurai was really scary, but he must overcome his fear. The samurai grinned, and sheathed his swords. Masaru could relax his muscles now. After the samurai introduced him, Masaru gave a bow to that man. Forgive me, sir, sorry for my rudeness.
A retainer of Lord Nobunaga, Masaru respected every trainer and officers of Lord Nobunaga. One of Masaru's dreams is to serve Lord Nobunaga in his campaign, and become one of his famous officers.

Masanobu frowned slightly. The respect was nice and all, but he hadn't met a Samurai with a spine in the longest time. It almost seemed like this kid might be different, but so far he wasn't. Still, his swordplay wasn't a joke - not entirely refined, but no joke. He figured he would finish up with what he was doing, though, just in case. Juuust in case.
"Where'd you learn your swordplay, kid?"
He crossed his arms, watching the boy. No name right now, but that wasn't entirely important. Scouting the men of the territory, and their skill-sets, was his job.

Masaru sighed, he didn't want any trouble with an experienced trainer. With a respectful voice, Masaru answered him, I trained by my father's best friend. He taught me a lot, but still, I need to learn more. He said, if I wanted to, I can be the best swordsman around.
Masaru gave another bow to the samurai, Please teach me, sir. I will follow you, please, I'm begging you. Make me your students. A teacher would be a good component for him now, so, he could defeat any obstacles on the path to his dream.

Masanobu simply laughed, taking a few steps back from the kid, his head in his palm. Catching himself, he just nodded, getting the rest of the laughs out of his system and pulling the sword from his sheath. If this kid wanted to be trained, he'd have to prove he was worth it, and not just everybody was worthy of being one of Oda's vassals right off the bat!
"Tell you what kid," he managed between chuckles. "You, uh, whip out your katana. Do it."
He wanted to be taught, he better be good.

Masaru stood, and wipe some dust off from his clothes. The samurai took his swords, and pulled it out. He asked Masaru to use his Katanas. Masaru drew his cartoons, Masaru closed his eyes. Thinking about everything, what he should do, and what he shouldn't do. His hand gripped the curtains tightly, and he grinned, Masaru realized that at least he must try to defeat the samurai. Prepare yourself, old man. I will try my best to defeat you He showed his spirit, like if it's his dying will.
This is one more step to victory. He dashed toward the samurai, raised his right curtains, and he gave a downward slash to the samurai, if the katana hit the samurai, Masaru could launch another attack easily.

Masanobu sighed as the boy charged. Lazily, he raised his blade above his head, catching Masaru's strike and putting the two in a deadlock. However, Masaru would find himself getting pushed back. If he resisted, his feet would drag backward through the dirt. Masanobu yawned, putting his shoulder forward, and launching his blade out, which would push the kid back, and if he wasn't careful, he would stumble and fall right on his ass.
"Try again."
Once more, his sword was held out, pointing at Masaru.

Masaru controlled his balance before he fell, he stood, and he dashed to the samurai again. This samurai is really good, I can't defeat him right now, no, be optimistic. This time, I will aim for your right waist, Masaru pushed his body to the right with his left leg, he raised his Katanas, he slashed downward with his right katana, and launched another attack with his other katana. Masaru's skill in dual swords is quite good.
Masaru was hoping, his Katanas could touch the samurai.If the attack was blocked, he would kick the man with his leg, so, the man would fall to the ground, and he launched an attack, but not injuring/killing the man, only placing him in death situation.

Masanobu - visually bored - swatted both of the katanas to the side with ease as Masaru charged. He would meet the boy's charge, leaning down and ramming his shoulder into the kid's chest. He was visibly faster than the boy, and evidently stronger, as the hit would - should it connect - send him up into the air. Masanobu would quickly follow up with a power side kick to the boy's stomach, and send him rolling back.
"That all you got, kid?"
He laughed, pulling a small container from his waist and taking a drink from it. He spit the liquid out along his blade, and let it hang loose at his side.
"If you're really a Samurai, show me some real skill!"

The samurai blocked Masaru's attack, and sent him back with his powerful kick, Masaru was injured, for him, it's barely to stand properly. He stood, his spirit's flame was rising. Indicating that he won't give up, he changed his stance, with a deep eyes, he glared at the samurai. He held the left Katana upside down, and the other one, the opposite of the other Katana. He inhaled a lot of hair, and exhaled it out.
I'll show you my flame, this is one of my moves, he dashed toward the enemy, Shajiku no aim, (Axle of Rain), he pulled both of his Katanas, and gave a big thrust to the samurai. If it's hit, it will cause a massive injury.

Masaru's next attack was kind of impressive. The burst of speed and the spirit he showed, anyhow. However, it was still nothing compared to Masanobu's skill. He slashed upward, parrying both of Masaru's swords, and would deflect them to the side. This would cause the boy to stumble, at which point Masanobu would put his katana to the boy's neck. It was so sharp he would bleed if it were to touch him.
"You got guts, kid. I'll acknowledge that. But you ain't got the strength to back it up."
Masanobu's eyes would narrow and look into Masaru's. How would the boy react...?

The samurai parried Masaru's Katanas, Masaru stumbled, and fell again. The samurai placed his Katana near Masaru's neck, Masaru couldn't move, if he moves, he died. The samurai looked into Masaru, Masaru glared back at the samurai, he was thinking, I couldn't challenge the samurai further! He's tough, I could lose my life in a second! I decided to stop this, maybe, someday, I could fight him back. Masaru relaxed his body on the ground, he opened his arm wide, he was tired. I admit it! You're strong! I couldn't defeat you, not today. One day, i will find you, fight you back and until that day, not even Death itself can take my life away!((OOC: A BGM played,, www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXIbWX999V0 XD.. ))

Masanobu cocked a brow. The kid had a strange way with words, but his spirit wasn't anything to chuckle at. His strength? Now, that was a different story, but that could be worked on. If the kid was as determined as he was saying, maybe there was some worth in him. Maybe, just maybe, Masanobu could turn this kid into a fighter.
"What does it mean to you, to be a Samurai?"
