The Story of Tatsume +

The beginning

Tatsume: (he is siting on his bed looking at his hands)

why am I so.....

(he then closes his eyes and closes his hand making a fist)

(he then hears a knock at the door)

???: HEY!!! TASUME!!!! WAKE UP!!!! YOU'RE LATE AGAIN!!!!!

(Tatsume then gets up and walks to the door opening it)

Tatsume: Huh? Doji? What do you want?

Doji: Don't be dumb.... its time for training!

Tatsume: Nah I was thinking of skipping today....sorry

Doji: WHAT?

???: Humph same old Tatsume the lazy bum is too weak to even go through a days worth of training....

(Tatsume and Doji look around to see where the voice is coming from)

Doji: Katchima! Shame on you! Don t say those kinds of things! It is not our village way!

Katchima: Well it's true! He IS a bum.....

Doji: KATCHIMA!

Tatsume: No....Doji....don't argue.....

Katchima: (looks at him with confusion, is thinking) I thought my taunt would anger him....what is up with him?

Doji: Tatsume.....

Tatsume: What are we planning to do today....Doji?

Doji: (is silent for a second) Well, we are putting all the rookies on patrol on main gate.

Katchima: WHAT!!!! That is so awesome. Finally, something I can do that is fun!

Tatsume: But Doji...isn't that a bit too much? What if something bad happens?

Doji: I'm pretty sure nothing too bad will happen and even if it does, I have complete trust in all of the rookies...

(Tatsume and Katchima are both shocked to hear what Doji just said)

Tatsume: Doji.....(smiles) Thank you.....
