My Double Life

Chapter 27

Skylar's POV

It's Shurikenjutsu training day and I couldn't be more excited. The day I master the art of blade throwing, everyone should fear me. Even Randy.

Yeah right.. let's see that happen.

"Skylar, you made it just at the right time. Let me introduce you to everyone." Vince walks up to me as I walk into the building

I follow him to where a couple of people are lined up with serious looks on their faces.

Now they look scary.

"Meet Xavier, he'll help you polish up on your fighting skills." Vince says

He looks about my age if not older. Shiny black hair, an attractive face and really sharp jawline.

"Hi nice to meet you." I shake his hand and he smirks at me

We move on to an older looking guy by the name of Gray. He's the self defence guy

"This is Carly, she's an assassin. She'll teach you all you need to know about shooting."

I look the beautiful red haired girl. She's got green eyes almost identical to mine and freckles on her nose. Beautiful I say

"Hi." I say and she archs her eyebrow at me

"Can I teach her how to have a badass attitude too? She looks too soft." Carly says looking at Vince

Excuse me?!

"Looks can be deceiving Carl, you wait and see." Vince backs me up sending a wink to me making me appreciate him more

I send him a smile back and Carly scoffs and rolls her eyes.

"This is the person you've been anxious to meet, Yasuyuki. He will be your Shurikenjutsu master, you'll train with him today." Vince introduces me to a rather old guy

Is he sure he can handle all that at such an old age?

He bows his head and I do not know if i should now back or just watch him until he straightens his posture again. I decide to bow too and it looks like I did the right thing because he straightens up right after.

That's a good start..

"Jones and I are responsible transporting you from here back home." Vince tells me "We'll leave and let you start with your training." He says loud enough for everyone to hear and they all excuse themselves except for Yasuyuki. I watch them all retreat and turn my focus on my teacher.

Two blades come flying directly past me in fast motion and I duck with a screech coming out of my mouth. My eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.

"What the hell dude, I wasn't prepared." I move my hair from out of my face as I stand up to face my teacher

He has a scrawl on his face and his eyebrows are knitted together in an unflattering manner.

"The battlefield doesn't wait for you to be ready. Your focus should always be turned on." He says walking past me to retrieve the blades on the board behind me

I quickly tie my hair up in a messy bun with some curls loose before more blades come flying my direction.

"Shurikejutsu is a traditional Japanese martial arts of throwing shuriken, which are small handheld weapons or blades used primarily by Samurai in feudal Japan such as bo shuriken, circular plates of metal known as hira shuriken and tanto or knives rather." He starts off

This guy does not waste time. I nod in understanding at everything he says, I did my research so I am familiar with what he's saying.

"We are going to work more with the kakushi buki, hidden weapons. The different shuriken, daggers, switch blades and hand claws. All the weapons that aren't seen in plain sight." He says unfolding a cloth filled with all kinds of shuriken and knives.
