"Welcome to Kyoto, a pretty advanced city, yet traditional in some places. I am Taeko, a high-schooler, I am for some reason considered the weird kid since I like Sword-Fighting, like that's a big deal.
Anyways, I also go to a place around here which is considered a dojo, an unlicensed one, I still like it, but it's kinda illegal. I didn't introduce myself other than say my name, I have big spiky black hair, brown hair, and that's boring, let me do this fast, I am awesome, I am 16 and already a master swords-man, more handsome than your average teen.
As I said, I am an expert so I have a house full of medals and trophies, actually, my so-called house is a small apartment, my mom passed away when she gave birth and my dad is a jerk, he left my mom and died while riding drunk a motorcycle, and I wasn't even invited to his funeral as his new wife called me a worthless punk since we couldn't stand each other, so at my apartment it is very lonely, I barely talk to anyone at school since kids tend to avoid me, and guess what, today is Monday and school starts again after a wonderful weekend"
Taeko got ready, and as always, forgot where his shoes were, silly boy. He reached for his backpack and opened the door and froze, it was the girl he liked, so his best move was to put on his hood, but sadly for him, she noticed him because of his big sword on his back.
"Hey!"She screamed at him while waving with a big smile on her face. "So, what's up? I saw you in class since the first day and you don't look weird to me, not at all. Since you don't have any friends, that's what I heard, wanna be friends? My name is Yumi, what's your name?". Taeko raised his head and looked her in the eyes and started blushing so he started looking towards the sky, so he wouldn't look suspicious. "Isn't the sky beautiful, Yumi?" "Yeah, it is".She said not knowing what were his motives."See those two clouds?" "Which ones?" "The ones I'm pointing at, they're about to bump into each other?" "And?" "Yumi, they might just represent our destinies, you know why?" "Why?" Today I might've just found my first ever friend" Both their eyes lit up, and then Yumi said "Yeah I see a spark of light in your eyes, I can tell you're happy, well I'm also happy to meet you. But what's your name?" "Taeko" "Well, see you at school Taeko!"

"See you!"
Then Taeko proceeded to walk inside and scream the words "I've done it" like a maniac. He sure knew his joke was cheesy.
He left the tv on without realizing, what a dummy, he then took a look just to get a bit scared by the news. "9 people were killed while the attack took place, the criminals were trying to find a sword, so they attacked the area were the sword was told to be, after that a note was found" Taeko read off the tv.
"There was a note who the following words were written on: Yomi is still here, in our soul, the sword is our savior, our master will come back soon." The boy froze in fear and took the sword off his back and said: "I will protect this sword even if it costs my own life, no matter what, I won't lose against some trouble-maker punks, I don't know what those assholes want to do with this sword, but I'll make sure it won't slip into their hands".
