“You mean this statues will come to life and be at my command once I beat this old drum.” Paul said as he pointed at the dusty drum. He was surprised.
“Yes. The Samurai’s are the strongest when it comes to the assassin’s world. I will tell you a story Paul. A long time ago there were two brothers, the elder one loathed after the younger one, and would do everything within his power to make sure his younger brother was not loved by their father.
As the years went by, the father saw the hatred in his elder son eyes and sent him to distance friend of his who was a Ninja master. His plan was to allow his friend change his son since he couldn’t. After much training he came back home more deadly and evil, his father heard he killed his own master. Confronting his elder son, he engaged his father to a duel.

He trained his late Father’s disciples and turn them into Ninja’s.” The old man stop to catch his breath as he walk towards a rusty look long box which laid on the ground, and which Paul notice at that moment.
“So what happened to the younger brother?” Paul asked interested in the story.
“He became a Samurai and trained people into becoming a Samurai. He was my great grandfather. Which is why Ninja’s and Samurai’s don’t ever get along.” He answered as he got to where the box was, he brought out his necklace which held a key in it. With the key he used it and open the box.
He brought out a sword from it which was covered in dust.
Removing the sword from its sheath after blowing away the dirt, he swung it around him faster, he removed his hand from the sword handle as the sword started rolling mid-air by itself.
“My late great grandfather and his Ninja friend were once taught a secret sword dance. Since I am choosing you as my next successor, I will teach you the technique.” The master said, “Watch what the sword is doing closely and you will see that the sword isn’t fighting, rather it is dancing.” He told Paul who focused all his attention on the sword. His master stretch forth his right hand and the sword landed on his palm. “You have to become one with this sword. Since you have already learn the Eight Virtues of Samurai, this one will be easy to master. Remember, it is shown only to a successor once, but I trust you… you’re sharp and you will grab it quickly. So Paul, are you ready?”
“Yes master, I am.” Paul responded, taking a glance at the Samurai statues and finally on the sword his master was holding. “I am ready master.”
“Good answer Paul. To learn the art of this sword, I will teach you how to dance with it. One day Paul, you may meet someone who also knows this technique. I hope when that day comes, you shall come out victorious.” The master said.
“I will come out victorious master.” Paul told him with determination and courage.

“Are you sure you want to call her?” Dee voice was heard.
“Don’t ask me such silly questions, since you can’t do a little task such as this, let me summon the one who had brought you to me in the first place, and tell her how stupid and powerless you’re.” Lora answered.
“I told you to leave him alone that he has the blessings of the love goddess and focus on David, but you said no. If you had listen, at least David would have still be yours.” Dee told her.
“How dare you talk to me in such manner? Listen and listen good, Paul will be soon mine and that’s it, I don’t care if a goddess or something is protecting him, all I know he will never end up with anyone else especially with Nora. And as for talking to to me in such a rude manner, go and hit your head on the wall until I told you to stop.” Lora ordered immediately.
Dee didn’t argue, she went to do as she was told.
