A Story about a small boy who grows up to fight the clan that destroyed his village
In the rice fields of ancient japan a small boy was playing in the marsh with the wooden sword his father had made him, the sword was quite small but so was the child. He moved through the marsh scanning the ground, He came to a stop after seeing the small disturbance in the grass he knew what it was the instant he seen it,The animal slithered to him and coiled up the child laughed and reached his hand to it, The snake struck at the child then, an arrow pierced the snake's head knocking it back before it bit the child. A voice of a young man broke the silence "Are you mad Jin!" Jin looked up not knowing how close he had come to death. Jin replied " why did you kill herf?" the young man's voice sounded surprised "who is herf?" Jin giggled and said " My friend" the young man spotted the wooden sword and asked the Jin where he had gotten it from, The Jin told him how his father had made it for him. The young man glanced at his wazikashi and removed it from his waist and handed it to Jin, he looked happy and tried to give his wooden sword to the young man the young man refused. The young man looked at Jin and said, "lets get you back to your village.", They hadn't took three steps before they heard screaming and seen smoke rising from the village the the looked at each other, Jin started crying a soundless cry. The young man guessed the village rivals, the Cold Dragon Clan. He grabbed jin's hand and ran him into the woods and lifted him into a tree and told him to go to the middle and not to make a sound until he returned, The young man ran off to the village, Jin sat waiting for hours until he climbed down and listened, he heard sounds approaching him he didn't know how to fight efficiently but he had observed the village guards sparring, he silently unsheathed his sword and waited until he could see a figure he didn't recognize the figure but he noticed a sword in the right hand of the figure he ducked in the bush and waited for the person to get in front of him, when the person was finally in front of him he sprung forward with the blade extended and struck the person under the ribs hitting the heart causing immediate death. the person was covered in blood missing an arm and an ear with no hair, he turned the body over and let out a cry, he had killed his mother who was searching for him.

Ten years later the once young jin is now Seventeen, he sat in a dark corner of a cave at the outskirts of town he went there every now and then he was a feared samurai in the town, he had killed countless people for mocking him for killing his mother the worst case was the first just a year after the accident, although he was eight he learned to attack in the woods from traveling samurai's. The boy was in a tavern eating when a man started making fun of him the boy the boy still had the wazikashi the young man had given him, The boy took his thumb and lifted the blade from the sheath and started pulling the blade out more as the man laughed and taunted the boy stood up and approached the man and struck him in the stomach cutting it open, everyone in the tavern then stood up and flocked to the door. The man was taken to his knees and his organs were coming out the boy grabbed the man's heart and cut off a large piece and made the man eat it the boy cut all over the man's body as he died. Most of the boys killings weren't as bad at this he mostly chopped their heads off or stabbed them in the heart and twisting the blade. Non one again said anything about the boy's accident when he was around.
He stood up and walked out of his cave and went on a journey to the Cold Dragon Clan's head quarters to avenge his mother, True he had killed her but they had basically scalped her they cut their arm and ear off he walked out of the darkness with a mindset to kill the clan.
