CINNAMON

Nine Years Later

Nine years later...

Yama Village...

this afternoon the sky looks bright, the blue sky is decorated with white clouds, and the sun is shining brightly.

on a plantation filled with rice, precisely under a fairly large and shady tree, two children were seen sheltering while talking.

“hey, Sansiro! we are here to keep the bird from eating rice, but you are the bird. ” said a boy, his face is handsome and black-haired, he is Sinam.

“remember Sinam, I only take a few, will not harm. ” replied the boy next to him, his skin is not as white as Sinam and just plain face, on his lips tucked into young rice, and on his lips, he is Sansiro, Sinam's best friend.

Sinam looked at Sansiro, “I just don't want you to add to your parents' distress. ”

“don't pity me, nor are you happier than me. ” Sansiro smile.

Sinam was silent for quite a while while looking at the sky, “it doesn't matter if life is hard.. But I was curious about my parents, what are they like? whether they are a fighter or not, I don't know. ” he said slowly.

Sansiro looked at Sinam, “entahlah, come to think of me too confused, have many times you asked your grandfather and grandmother, but they remain silent. ” he said, “but if they are a fighter, they must be a great fighter. ” and then smile.

“you are right, like your father. ” said Sinam with a smile.

“talk about a fighter. Next week the Yama Village academy receives a new student. ” says Sansiro. “even if my father forbids, I will still enter the academy and become a great fighter, he said, and I'll prove to dad I won't end up like him. ” Sansiro said.

Sinam silently looked at Sansiro, then seemed to think.

“then, what about you.? ” ask Sansiro.

“noah, I'm not sure either, I can't do anything, my physique is weak unlike yours, Sansiro. ” replied Sinam.

Sansiro smiled, “don't be stupid, anyone can be a fighter, but everything must be from the bottom, everything needs a process. ”

“Yosh.! ” suddenly Sinam raised his hand up, “don't joke! I will become a great fighter, then defeat all evil.! ” then scream.

Sansiro was surprised, “what's wrong with me? I should have known that just joking, a passionate person like him might not feel unsure. ” his inner self.

a while later, Sinam was already in his medium-sized house, next to his house was also a lot of houses.

“grandfather, grandma, next week I will enter the fighting academy, do you guys allow.? ” asked Sinam on a couple who is quite old and white-haired.

Grandpa and Grandma looked at each other, then smiled.

“actually grandfather also wants you to be a fighter, just like Uhara. ” replied the grandfather.

Sinam was surprised, then hugged the grandfather and grandmother, “Thank you grandpa. granny. I promise not to ask about my parents again. ” he said gently.

grandparents are silent and look sad hugging Sinam, “forgive grandfather and grandmother, Sinam. If you become a great fighter, maybe you will know all about your parents. ” said grandma.

the next day...

Sinam walked towards Sansiro's house which was quite far from his house, so until Sinam got a scene that was less wearing, he hid by climbing a tree.

“why father? why did you forbid me? I told you I won't end up like you.?! ” shouted Sansiro at his father whose legs were broken next to his.

“listen to Sansiro, you already know your feet like this because of a mission, but do you know what mission it is.? ” ask dad Sansiro flat.

“enough father, whatever father says, I will remain a fighter who will protect the village. ” Sansiro doesn't care, then turns his back on his father.

“when you become a fighter, it means you have to sacrifice everything for the mission.even if your family is in danger. ” said Sansiro's father.

Sansiro fell silent, then turned back, “lalu... what does that have to do with dad's leg.? ”

“then the father was on an important mission, but suddenly the father heard the news that your mother was in danger while running the mission... ” Sansiro's father stared down, “while in the fight with friends, sansiro, father left all and rushed to help your mother, but everything was destroyed. turned out to be all traps.Your mother was killed, all of father's friends were killed.everything was because of the father's fault.

“that means.we must keep the mission assigned to us, regardless of anything.. ” Sansiro opens his eyes, “in other words.. ”

Sinam gasped at hearing all that, “ sacrificed everything for the mission.? ” inner, “what if one day I am faced with two difficult choices, can I choose..? ”

“now... are you still thinking of becoming a fighter..? ” Sansiro's father looks at Sansiro.

“ya.. ” the answer is quick and serious, “if one day I put father, I will save everything. ” he smiled.

“that's impossible. ” says Sansiro's father.

“don't ever underestimate me, I will save everyone.. ” Sansiro stopped saying, “I'd rather die than my closest people who died. I'll sacrifice myself as long as everyone is safe. ” he pointed his thumb at his father while smiling loosely.

Sansiro's father was stunned, then smiled, “it seems like father can not block you.” he said.

Sinam who heard Sansiro speech fell silent, “self-sacrifice.? ” then smiled, “Sansiro is great, he pretended cool to be allowed by his father. ” it seems like he was wrong.

Sansiro's father stood up from his seat, “it has been decided, until next week you should help father garden. ”

“hah? I usually help my dad too.. ” Sansiro looks upset.

Bruck..

Sinam fell from a tree and lay.

“Sinam..?! ” Sansiro and his father are shocked.

“hehehe, sorry.” Sinam.

Sansiro smilingly looked at Sinam, “it happened once. father, before going to the garden what if we practice for a while, we should be stronger before entering the academy. ”

“well, alright. dad will see you guys fight first. ” said Sansiro's father smiled, “entah why, suddenly I became the spirit. ” inner.

Sinam and Sansiro stared at each other, mounted the horses and advanced at the same time.

Sansiro throws a fist, “even if it's just practice, I won't hold back. ”

Sinam withstood Sansiro's blow, “no need to hold back, but also do not force yourself. ” he smiled.

Sansiro's father watched, “ya geez, they are very big talk. ” her inner.

Blaac..

sansiro's kick landed on Sinam's chest which immediately fell, but Sinam stood up again.

“sial, you are so strong. ” Sinam keep smiling.

“you finally admit it. ” Sansiro back forward.

Sinam and Sansiro take each other's punches, the two fists do not clash and pass each other.

Baakk.. Bukk..

sinam's fist landed on Sansiro's cheek, and vice versa, but Sinam immediately fell down while Sansiro just bared a little.

Sinam sat down, “sial, Sansiro is very strong, want physical or stamina, I am not a match. ” his mind back to stand.

Sansiro looked at Sinam with murderous lust, “let's Sinam, show me everything you've got! I'm new to this fight and it's fun. ” he looks serious.

sansiro's father was surprised to see Sansiro, “Sansiro, you?!” her inner self, “Don't-don't she is the same as her mother, has a high fighting spirit, no matter what her opponent is as strong as anything, she will always enjoy it.”

Sinam smiled, “cih, you pissed me off. ” he's back to prepare.

Sinam ran towards Sansiro, after close he aimed the punch that Sansiro instantly avoided.

Plaque..

Sinam and Sansiro kick, Sinam is thrown and falls.

Sinam looked at Sansiro annoyed, “Sansiro is indeed great, I cannot beat him. ” his inner self. “what is it with me? since when have I been a coward.? ” she smiles again.

Sinam and Sansiro continued to fight, punching and kicking each other, resisting also deflecting, falling back to their feet, at this time they were filled with spirit.

“seeing they were excited like this, I so remember my youth. ” muttered Sansiro's father.

“that's enough. ” suddenly Sansiro's father stopped the fight. “ada I want to tell you guys. ”

Sinam and Sansiro were already battered, but they could still smile.

“it's clear, I'm superior to you. ” said Sansiro.

Sinam glanced, “for now, not for tomorrow. ” then smile.

sansiro's father looked at Sinam and Sansiro, “you who are now nothing, the child from the upper class must be all strong, they also mastered sword techniques, “you never even touched the sword, your journey must be heavy.. ”

“wait uncle.! ” Sinam cut, “then what is this? isn't this a sword.? ” he holds a sword made of wood.

“father, which Sinam said was true. ” Sansiro said.

sansiro's father scratched his head, “ya geez, they are still very innocent. ” his inner.

“it is not included, if you already hold the real sword, it means you are ready to kill, slash the opponent to the blood. ” Sansiro's father looks serious.

Sinam and Sansiro were silent for a moment, “kill.? ” their voice gulps audibly.

“ada more important. ” Sansiro's father continued, “you should be able to control your Shaka as soon as possible. ”

“Shaka? what'sthat.? ” Sinam confusion.

“entahlah, I also often hear people say it. ” said Sansiro.

“fast or slow you guys must know. ” said Sansiro's father.
