Betrayal
Grandpa Yi was sitting on a chair inside the Yi clans main hall reading a letter, the letter was delivered by one of his trusted spy’s, out looking for Jin’s mother Yi Jun. A smile was forming on his face and he stood up and screamed. “Ready my carriage“
One of the Yi clans retainers came running to grandpa Yi, stopped in front and bowed answering in a humble tone. “ Elder Cho, I am sorry, as you asked that the carriage must be ready for you to arrive for your meeting in the city in one hour. The carriage is being cleaned and refilled now“
Grandpa Yi looked back at his own retainer and in a dissatisfied tone said “And? I am now asking to ready the carriage“
The retainer looked back with a little fear in his eyes, answered while looking to the floor not daring to make eye contact with grandpa Yi “I am so sorry elder Cho, that…. that is not possible.“
“Not possible, hmmfph. Very well, then ready my horse or is that also not possible?“ Grandpa Yi looked at his retainer cleary not happy about it.
“Yes right away elder Cho.“ The retainer bowed as he answered, not daring to look up at the elder as he hurried out of the main hall.

Jin was looking at the white baby fox, sleeping in the hole by the fire, as he was thinking about what he had read about the foxes on earth. I know foxes, all animals for that matter, will not be taken back by its own parents after prolonged contact with humans. Even if that wasn’t the case and I could return the white baby fox, i’ve been searching for that white fox everywhere with no luck.
He walked towards and woke the white baby fox.
He told the white baby fox in a soft qiuet tone. “Hi little baby fox, I am sorry, but I can’t find your parents so I will be the one to take care of you. You know in my old world called earth. little baby foxes like you starts hunting a month after their birth“

The baby fox made a cute little grunt, almost as the white little baby fox was telling him, I understand.
Jin looked at his new companion and said. “Good, lets go hunt.“

Guan-Yin had just arrived at the city gates when she heard a voice. “ Guan-Yin“ She turned around and saw old grandpa Yi standing there, looking at her and saying “Guan-Yin where is my grandson?“
Guan-Yin answered “ He is still training, why?“
“Nothing, just give this letter to my him, it is very important he reads it as soon as he gets it. Remember as soon as heg ets it.“ Grandpa Yi said, gave her the letter and started walking away.
Grandpa Yi was walking towards one of the side streets and could feel Guan-Yin staring at him. He decided to turn around to look and was met by two eyes that looked disgusted by him.
Grandpa Yi yelled back “Don’t get the wrong idea, I am just meeting some friends“
After he dissapeared into the side street he thought to himself: Why does she cares, and I really didnt need to explain myself, that old hag should mind her own business.
After exiting the side street, he entered the Tea Pavillion Street, also known as the red light district. Everywhere his eyes looked, he would see beautiful women, all standing around in revealing clothes, some more than others.
Women, one after another, the next more beautiful then the last approched him pressing their own small and big advantages on him asking if he wanted to join them for some tea.
Grandpa Yi shook his head and answered while wiping of the sweat on his forehead “Sorry ladys i am going to the pavillion tea house to meet with some friends“
As he entered the famous pavillion tea house, a sweaty short old man with beady eyes welcomed him in a greedy high pitched voice. “Welcome to the pavillion tea house“

After the beady eyed short sweaty old man saw it was Grandpa Yi he got a little nervous, but quickly got a hold of himself, shouting. “Mei come take care of the esteemed elder and show him to his room.“
Grandpa Yi noticed the short beady eyed sweaty man was a little nervous, but paid it no mind as a young beautiful women, no more then twenty with long silky black hair and perfect white skin walked out in a beautiful silk kimono, revealing not only her cleavage and slender long legs, but a seductive smile.
Looking at grandpa Yi with her beautiful two green eyes saying “Follow me esteemed elder“ in a sweet suducting tone.
The suductress that was this lady, lead grandpa Yi through a small hallway towards the back of the tea house, grandpa Yi suddnly felt something wasn't right, as he thought about how the beady looking, short, sweaty man, was a little nervous for a second. Then it was this beautiful women infront of him, why was she hiding her presence, almost as she wasn’t even there.
When suddenly the scent of fresh blood traveled towards him.
The beautiful women looked down and saw a sword sticking out of her stomach, she turned her head just to see grandpa Yi holding the sword.
The beautiful seductress looked at grandpa Yi with her beautiful green eyes, no longer beautiful, but filled with anger and hate.
When he pulled out the sword grandpa Yi chopped of her head with one swift motion.
By the time it took for the seductress head to hit the floor, grandpa Yi had already arrived at the door and opened it.
This was the room were he was supposed to meet the other elders he of the Yi clan he trusted. They all shared the knowledge of their ancestors book and now he was the only one left.
What met his eyes when he opened the door was nothing more than slaughter, every one of the elders that was there, either still sitting on a chair or just laying on the floor, the one thing they all had in common was that they were all dead.
One thought popped up in his head betrayed, betrayal, but who?.
Clang clang clang
Three flying daggers was on the ground and three black clothed men was walking out of the shadows, ready to attack.
Grandpa Yi looked at the black clothed men standing there, he stomped his fot on the floor and the three flying daggers all flew up. He kicked each of the daggers towards his attackers, as the daggers returned to their previous owners grandpa Yi also made his move.
He attacked the closest assassin with his piercing the sky technique.
The wall shattered as the assassin flew through the wall landing on the other side. The two remaining assassins had already engaged grandpa Yi as the first assassin flew through the wall, landing on the otherside with a thump.
The assassin that flew through the wall did not sustain any heavy injuries as he stood up ready to join the battle
When he saw that grandpa Yi had no trouble defending against the two other assassins he also flew into action and attacked grandpa Yi from the side.
Grandpa Yi was now boxed in, he had no problem defending against the three assasins, but the assasins also had no problem defending against him. They were at a standstill and grandpa Yi decided the only way was to escape, he couldnt risk reinforcements comming.
He fought his way towards the window and managed to jump through.
Just as he thought he was free, he looked up to see twenty imperial warriors standing in front of him with their weapons drawn.

An Average American in A High-school Academy Anime
An American versed in narrative tropes and more than mildly acquainted with anime wakes up in a completely different bed than the one he went to bed in. Now he has to scramble to understand where he is, what's going on, and hope to God he isn't in a relationship drama. I don't expect this to be good or well-received, but I have plenty of time this quarantine, so I'll try to get a chapter of 4000-10000 words out every one or two weeks. (haha) Please let me know how it can be improved. I'm an avid reader of fiction, but I've never really fallen down a rabbit hole so hard that I can name all tropes and settings and such by heart. I'm not sure if this will be effective satire, so I preemptively apologize. Inspired by: "My Life is Not a Manga, or maybe..." by EO Tenkey and "The Simulacrum" by Eganthale. Check them out if you want probably better stories than this one.
