Find Me in 1000 Years

Decisions

The sound of cats meowing. Odagiri brought his cat into the house.

"Eh, Suchan ...." Ken thrust his hand on the floor and the cat jumped into the arms. "Suchan." He rubbed the cat's head while hugging it.

"Oh, don't think about it today. You really like him, don't you?"

"Who?"

"Son of the Minister of Defense."

"He's my friend, Sensei, with his bodyguard, Gojo. We are both demigods."

"Mmh .. Well, get some sleep."

Ken put the cat on the bed and stood up. He stepped into the door and opened it. "Night, Sensei." The man then disappeared behind the door.

Odagiri rubbed the cat's head. He had actually made up his mind after hearing the entire story of his student, but he would say it tomorrow.

The breakfast atmosphere was pleasant because Ken was there. The two girls were as usual, busy looking for Ken's attention. Lian Luo's wife had started eating as usual and Ejiro had only seen Ken who was forced to be busy with the two girls, although he sometimes tried to come in and talk to the girls.

After breakfast, Odagiri makes a statement that they leave to go back to the forest, making the whole house surprised including Ken and Ejiro. "I'm going back to where I came from with my two students."

"Oh, that's fast. Shouldn't you be looking for the whereabouts of Lucille and the dracula?" ask Lian Luo.

"I've had another discussion with Ken last night and chances are, they've gone out of town. If we get out of town, it's actually not our responsibility anymore, let alone they might come to a city other than China, so we say goodbye."

"But what about the bodyguards out there waiting for Ken all night?"

"Let me tell them to go back to the Defense Minister's residence."

Lian Luo could say nothing more than to let the three of them go. They left in a carriage driven by the rich man after telling the Defense Minister's bodyguard that Ken could not return because he had decided to go back to the forest.

"Sensei, can't I be a member of the Minister of Defense?" asked Ken once more with a limp body. He hoped his teacher would answer another even if it was impossible.

"May, but not now. Now is the time to continue to complete the martial arts lesson, then you can choose whatever you want."

"Sensei ...."

"Basin crybaby!" ledek Ejiro's.

"For you ...." Ken elbowed the man beside him and he instead got his bangs ruffled by the man. "I'm not a kid, you know!" patisnya with rough. He was upset, in certain moments, the man often considered him a child.

Ejiro and Odagiri laughed.

The train just drove up to the edge of the forest. Next, the three of them had to walk again into the forest. At that moment, Ken was looking for a way to escape. "Eh, Sensei, I want to go to the bathroom first huh?"

"Eits." Odagiri was already holding onto the collar of the man's kimono which had already turned around to leave. "Where are you going?"

"To the bathroom, Sensei," Ken repeated.

"Not in a hurry, are you? Let's go home. If you're desperate, you can do it in the woods."

"In the woods is uncomfortable. Coincidentally here, why not just here, Sensei?" seduce the short-haired man.

"Here and keep disappearing, mmh?" Odagiri glanced at Ken who was still looking for a crack.

"Sensei ...." The short-haired man's reason was evidently read.

"If you lie and try to escape, first day practice, you have to do the exercise 2 times longer."

Ken scowling. He accidentally saw a horse-drawn wagon galloping through beside him. That was when he made his sword stick to catapult his body and into the wagon, but at that moment without realizing it, Odagiri jumped without any help, grabbed the man and took him out of the wagon again. Ejiro laughed at him.

"Other times, if you want to run away again, make sure your knowledge is higher than me, and then you try again."

"Sensei ...," said Ken limp.

"Ejiro, help me," asked Ken.

"I want to learn from Sensei, so I have no intention of running away from him" said the man with a big smile.

Ken could only swallow disappointed.

"Ejiro, you'll catch up. Don't forget to bring Suchan. I have to get home because Ken wants to take a shower" Odagiri joked.

Ejiro chuckled as he bowed to grab Suchan.

No day passed without practice. Odagiri teaches a new style of fusion between Japanese and Chinese movements. Also combined with the near-perfect inner energy that both Ken and Ejiro are doing. Ken was able to pass through the walls up to half the height of the cave, while Ejiro had started to move to jump over trees.

Ken had just finished training that afternoon, while Ejiro was training hard to catch up with the short-haired man. The man with the codet felt stupid whenever he saw Ken easily understand what Sensei said, while he needed a lot of effort to match the short-haired man.

In addition to being left behind by Ken, he was embarrassed because he was older than the man but not smarter. He envied many of Ken's accomplishments that he couldn't do.

An arrow suddenly shot out and stuck on the ground. Both were shocked and surprised. Sensei was there too.

"Kennn .. I'm coming!" Mira waved from above. "I brought lunch."

Odagiri Sensei helped his two students climb to the top. It only takes a few jumps, he has got to the top, brought Ken and then Ejiro.

"Mira, did you bring food for me?" ask Ken to be happy.

Yes, also for Sensei and Ejiro."

The short-haired man pouted, let alone seeing Ejiro and Sensei smiling happily. They came down to the abyss with ropes. Mira, Gojo and the guards brought food from the Defense Minister's house.

"Sir Ken, when is Big Brother out of here?" mira asked Ken who was enjoying his meal with chopsticks.

The short-haired man glanced at Odagiri for a while then looked at the girl. "Sorry Mira, I don't know. I should be able to master all the moves that Sensei taught me just get out of here."

The girl looked a little disappointed, but Ejiro bothered her by poking her cheeks. "Ihh ...."

The man with the codet laughed.

"Ejiro!" yelled Ken, annoyed.

"You're so nosy, Ejiro," said Odagiri.

The three even glanced towards the teacher.

"Lho, why?" Now the stiff-haired man was astonished because it was noticed in such a way.

"He's my brother, Sensei. Step-sister," the blabbering man explained.

"Oh, really?" Odagiri just found out. "So you guys .. oh, maybe that's how fate relates" he murmured.

"What, Sensei?" ask Ken.

"Ah, no. Come on, let's just keep eating."

Not long ago they ate, the stiff-haired man felt something. He sharpened his ears. "Mira, what when you came here, you were followed by someone?"

"No" the girl replied briefly.

Odagiri was still sharpening his ears, he heard suspicious movements. "Is your bodyguard just this way?"

"Yes, Sensei."

"So we have guests."

Just saying so, a shadow passed through where they ate. One, two, three, up to many and then they come simultaneously.
