Part 5

By the time Ryu reached The Sunshine Dojo it was very late. As he entered the house he saw that everyone were sitting at the Dinner table. When the mistress of the Sunshine Clan saw him, she smiled warmly and asked,"Ryu where were you all Day?" Ryu was not at all interested in talking to anyone from the Sunshine Clan but still forced himself to say,"I was playing by the River." Then the Mistress of the Sunshine Clan said,"Oh OK go have a wash we were all waiting for you." Ryu went quickly and came a little late. Then he sat down and Mr.Taiyoukou asked him in a serious tone,"Anything wrong Ryu? You look a little worried." Ryu wanted to yell,"You are the problem!!!!!!!" but he just said,"Nothing like that." and quietly had his dinner while the other members of the Sunshine Clan were happily enjoyed their dinner talking to each other. After the dinner Ryu went to the room which he shared with " His Younger Brother " ...

Ryu was now shattered and he was no longer able to control his tears but managed to say,"Hey old man Whats the proof that all this is true." The old man just said,"I know that you were going to ask this stupid question, you might know that all members of a Fighter Clan have specific Tattoo birth marks, see yours and compare that with that of other members of the Sunshine Clan." Then Ryu rolled back his right sleeve and looked at his tattoo birth mark Then he remembered how the mark of the Sunshine Clan members looked like He always wondered why his tattoo birth mark looked different and the answer provided by the old man seemed the most logical one. Then Ryu asked the old man,"Hey do you know any of the attacks the Shadow Clan members performed." "I have faithfully served the Shadow Clan for many years its only natural that I would pick up something here and there." Then the old man asked Ryu if he was interested in learning some re...

Part 3

Curious to know how it was calling his name he went into that narrow lane and searched for sometime. A few minutes later an old man in his who appeared to be in his seventies came out of nowhere and Ryu got alert and drew out his new Wooden Blade which he was carrying with him. The old man smiled and his mouth had several teeth missing and said in that same hollow voice,"Don't worry, I pose no harm to you, I am just a Mere Mortal." When Ryu heard the word Mere Mortal Ryu calmed down a bit and sheathed his sword and apologized to the old man. Then Ryu said,"Who are you old man? What do you want?" The Old Man smiled again and said,"The question is not who am I Ryu,the question is Who are you?" Ryu was surprised on hearing the hollow voice calling his name, then he tried hard to remember if he had seen the old man after thinking for a few minutes he remembered, the old man used to work at the Sunshine Dojo when Ryu was very young. Then Ryu greeted ...

A few days later the Dueling tournament took place and there was an epic battle between the self proclaimed leader of the Shadow Clan and the true Leader of the Sunshine Clan-Mr.Taiyoukou but unexpectedly the Shadow Clan lost the battle and the Sunshine Clan continued their rule for another 14 years. The Villagers came to know about the incident that happened on that night and the entire Shadow Clan were driven out from the village. The self proclaimed leader of Shadow Clan told that he will be back to take what is rightfully his. 14 Years later.............. "Ryu come on hit back at me, strike me harder, is that all you got.",said Ryu's "brother" and when Ryu tried to hit him, his brother dodged Ryu easily and struck Ryu hardly in his chest causing Ryu to fall back and he was breathing heavily. Mr.Taiyoukou was observing their duel closely and he was waiting how Ryu would react, Ryu unconsciously inverted his wooden sword and started tapping it on the ground ...

The sun was slowly setting behind the trees in the little village of Japan where two rival families were having a meeting. The representatives of the Shadow clan included their leader, his pregnant wife and some other people while The Sunshine Clan's representatives were only the clan's leader's younger brother and their family. The leader of the Shadow Clan said,"Tobi, I believe the details are all perfect so shall we fix the date of the duel." "They are, but lets wait till my elder brother comes, anyway when are you expecting your first child?" The leader of the Shadow Clan looked at his wife and she smiled shyly and told Tobi,"Well brother I am expecting my child soon." Then the topic of discussion diverted to some other issues. While all this talk was happening the leader of the Sunshine Clan was talking a walk in the Cherry Garden with his Wife and Child. While the talks were going on The leader of the Shadow Clan sensed some new pr...

As the weeks passed, the park whose plan was laid by many engineers was taking shape by the help of students and anyone who was interested in helping. Saturday evenings and Sunday afternoons were spent in gardening, digging dirt, planting saplings etc. but Pooja had to make up a lot of stories to come out of her house every week which included everything from " Special Classes At School to Visiting a Sick Friend ". One such Saturday evening while she was working on the Flower Beds near the Entrance Gate, she was working without a care in the world, Ravi came and joined her and they were working so hard that they got mud spots in many places on their faces and then Ravi asked Pooja,"Hey Pooja, how is it that you manage to come twice every week while others want to skip their share of work by giving some reasons." To this Pooja smiled shyly and replied,"Well Ravi the thing is that, I have a lot of childhood memories of playing in this green lot and I didn'...
