《Harmony: An Assassins Tale》Chapter 4: My Training Begins! (Re-Edit)

"We will return, don't worry," he said, while he drove me towards the airport. When we came to the airport, he parked the car in the parking lot and then I left the car. "Let's go, Hartsen~Sensei," and we walked towards the airport. When we arrived there, I noticed Tou was there, but then when I looked again, it was Kuiy there, sitting alone, waiting for the plane to arrive. I strayed from my path with Hartsen to meet him, but when I went towards the image of Kuiy, he wasn't there at all, which seemed to peak my interest. "Hartsen~Sensei, what kinds of Soul Emifer are there in this world?" and he looked at me , displeased. "You don't know that either? There are endless types of Soul Emifers, it can be anything at this point, and when I say anything, I mean anything." After that , the woman on the intercom said, "The plane for Tokyo to New York has arrived, please board the plane, as it will be departuring in 10 minutes, thank you!" and with that we grabbed our luggage and ran towards the gate, as everyone was in a rush to enter. We managed to squeeze ourselves in there, but when I got to my seat, I didn't notice Hartsen~Sensei, so I sighed, and went to look for him, but when I did, he wasn't outside.
After 5 minutes, the woman at the desk said that the flight would departure in a minute, so I quickly hurried back into the plane, and when I sat down, I noticed Hartsen~Sensei was right next to me. "Wha...where were you?" and he said, a bit displeased, "I've been here the entire time! You didn't notice your innocent sensei did you?" and I wanted to punch his face. After that the plane then left and we were sitting in the plane, and after a few hours Hartsen~Sensei went to sleep. The air hostess than brought us some snacks, and I decided to get some wine for Hartsen~Sensei, because he liked having his alchol. When he woke up, we were about to arrive in New York. "Heh? What happened?" and I told him he was asleep, than I poured him a glass of wine. "Oh, thanks." and he started drinking it. While he was drinking it, the plane went into descent, and all of it spilled on his shirt, like I wanted to. I started bursting out in laughter, and he punched me, which stopped me.

After landing, I then made Yagrik into a car, and Hartsen~Sensei was quite impressed. "I see you managed to learn the basics of using a Soul Emifer, but let me tell you, there is so much more you can do! Now, let us first stop at my dojo, we will then sleep and start our training tomorrow, how about that?" and I agreed to what he said. I was to young to drive, so he drove us there instead, and there wasn't traffic, so it was a bit of a more peaceful drive, but Hartsen~Sensei almost fell asleep twice, and because he was partially drunk, we almost crashed twice. I decided to take the wheel from there on. After we reached the dojo, Hartsen~Sensei was already asleep. I then dragged his body with Yagrik, and put him on the floor, in the dojo.
I then grabbed a matress from the storage room, and went to sleep. I couldn't dream of anything, my mind was blank, and all I thought about was about this entire world, and what is Soul Emifers, and all of this 'fantasy' like things, that is in the real world. I then woke up , outside.
I didn't realize it at first, but I was feeling very hungry, so I decided to go and get something to eat. Then, Hartsen~Sensei came out through the bushes, and went for a punch, but I dodged it. "You always did this before, not something new," I said, and then he smirked, planted his foot on the ground, and did a somersault and managed to punch me at the back of my head, with such a force, I fell on the ground. "You still can't dodge a simple punch? And you call yourself a trained assassin... man, you still have alot to learn Johnny. First, let's train your physical strength before we go into depth of the Soul Emifer." he said this, hiccuping, as he always gets drunk in the morning. You see, Hartsen~Sensei is a master of the drunken fist technique, which makes him an unpredictable enemy.
I then tried calling my Soul Emifer, but this time, it didn't come out, for some reason. He started laughing, while hiccuping. "Hahahaha! You really think you can activate your Soul Emifer? You really are a stupid boy. A Soul Emifer is the manifestation of your will, if you don't will it to do anything, it won't do anything unless you have a given idea, you fool! Now, try again, this time, I'll give you a challenge. You have to land a finger on me, that is all, but if you can't do it by noon, then there will be training, strict.. training."

After hearing this my anger exceeded its limits. "Who the hell do you think you are, you hermit! I will show you my new found abilities!" after saying this I called out my Soul Emifer, which manifestated itself into Yagrik . "HA HA HA! You have a rock as an ability, don't tell me you're one of the lowest class Soul Wielder! Great lord have mercy! " He said , and then I laughed like a maniac and transformed it into a gun and started shooting him, but I wasn't even close enough to make his hair feel the breeze. " You fool! The stone transforms depending on your will, and imagination! This is both the weakest and strongest weapon, you damn brat! Use your head and try to find a way to hit me, if you can , I suppose." he said.
I listened to his instructions, and I calmed myself down. While he went for the offense, I dodged his attacks, while I was thinking of an idea to defeat him. "Dodging won't make you complete my task, you know. It is almost noon, are you ready for the consequences?" and he continued charging at me. I then came up of an idea. I decided to manifest a perverted comic, which he liked, as he was a perverted sensei. "Ohh, ohh! It's the newest edition! It is so alluring, even though I know it is a trap!" but he fell for it anyways, which was what I wanted.
After that, when he picked it up, It transformed into a dagger, and I pointed it directly to his face, and it flew towards him, but he easily dodged it, and said. "I knew it was a trap to begin with, I just wanted you to feel better, I know how your SE works better, than anyone else here. The best part is that you haven't seen mine either, oh, look at the time, you have 10 minutes left, now, what are you going to do?"
I got frustrated, which was something I shouldn't have done. I then started charging at him aimlessly, which made it easier for him, and he taunted me, saying I couldn't do anything. I then transformed Yagrik into a sword, and tried for to go for the kill, I managed to get close to him, and when I did, I slashed him with the sword, it missed , so I then did a quick manoeuvre and transformed it into a dagger, and with the extra Yagrik, I made a gun, and shot it directly into his chest, point blank. He didn't dodge it, but he started bleeding, and fell. I may have overdid it, but he forced me to, anyways. Then something weird happened.
The 'dead' Hartsen~Sensei then poofed into mid-air and than I saw him, reading the book I first created. "I already had a copy of this book, anyways, and that my friend, is a clone. You have a few minutes left, what are you going to do?" and I was confused about what happened, but then I came up with the idea that it was his Soul Emifer. After that, the Hartsen~Sensei with the book rised up, and created two more of himself. "Let's have some more fun, shall we?"
After that, I managed to shoot the clones of his, but when I tried to go for him, I couldn't hit him, no matter how much I tried. Time was over, and I failed. "Okay, so far, everything you saw was real, it wasn't my illusion or anything like that. So, for the next month or so I'll train you as vigorously as possible, to sharpen your assassination skills, your SE will be stregthened at a later date. Now, are you ready?" and I felt ready, but I still had a headache.
I then thought about three things. First off, whether Hartsen~Sensei was happy I was here, to meet him, and train with him once again, the second was whether or not the government wants me again, because I ran away from there, I wasn't allowed, and the third, was how Tou, Jennifer, Kuiy and everyone else was doing back in Japan.

So when a clique of Mean Girls wannabees start sullying her good name in the Art History department of her university, what is she to do? Contacting the Dean would make a big fuss, and likely would give her the wrong kind of attention. But her subdued pride demands satisfaction! If only there was a way to get back at these girls with out jeopardizing her desire to remain in the background. The only solution? Magic learned from the forbidden texts of her part-time job. Also posted on Scribblehub I'll try to update weekly.
