just another dayA Chapter by C.A.Jordon Boken:
transfer samurai: chapter 4: just another day. Both Boken and
Rachel arrived at school simply just talking. The students at the school were
minding their own business talking about dances and the different clubs they
were planning on joining. “Where should I turn this in?” Boken pulled out the
check that he received in the mail. It had some writing on it, “Is that the
money your dad sent in?” she said as an amazing smile came over her face. She
was smiling ear to ear. “Yes it is, not really sure where to turn it in.”
“Well… remember that girl that was late on your first day?” she asked. “You
mean Miss Veronica Montgomery correct?”
Boken responded. “Well this is the thing… she is the treasurer so you
will have to turn it in to her. Make sure you write festival on it and she will
now what to do with it.” She explained. “Boken I hate to ask this of you but
could you be the class representative? We need a class rep and it would mean a
lot to me,” she asked wearingly. “Sounds like fun I used to be a class rep back
in japan,” he said with a relieved smile. “Thanks Boken, you’re the best!” she
said kissing his cheek. His face grew hot and he was not sure why. A feeling he hasn’t felt in three years came
to him. He knows this feeling, this feeling of acceptance. One other girl made
him feel this way a girl named Ryoko Musaichi (musa-ichi). He flashed back to
the times him, Umiko, And Ryoko. The Musaichi and the Bomaru
have been enemies since early Sengoku. The Sengoku was a civil war that existed
in this fifteenth century. The Musaichi are a group of water ninja where the
Bomaru are a group of fire Zen master or flame samurai. So naturally they are
enemies since the feudal era. They headed towards the
student government building. Veronica was there improving the budget as always.
Veronica heard the door shut right behind her. She turned around startled,
“don’t slam the door!” she demanded. She then realized she just yelled at the
new student, “Sorry Bomaru I thought you were my idiot boyfriend,” Boken was
not sure how to respond to that comment. “Hello Rach, so did you find a class
rep yet?” “Yeah Boken said he would do
it. Also he has some money to donate to the festival budget.” “How did you convince him to
join the student government? He doesn’t seem like the representative type. “ “What is that supposed to
mean Miss Montgomery?” “Well guys don’t usually
volunteer to become a class rep. they usually prefer the football team or
something along those lines.” “Well this school does not
have a kendo team. I need something to keep me occupied. I was a class
representative back in japan,” Boken explained. “Well that is a good enough
reason as any. Welcome to the student government of Kendra academy,’ she said
full of energy. Boken handed veronica the
check that he had wished to donate. “Awesome this is just enough. I will
present this to the board.” She ran out of the classroom quickly. “Where does
she get the energy?” Boken asked. Rachel just laughed, “Monster drinks I
assume.” They headed towards the cafeteria for lunch. There was group of
football players which is actually code for jocks. There was specific on that
stood out. It was apparent he was the alpha. He had a letterman jacket. His
hair was blond and layered. He wore some expensive looking jeans, he had a
black ‘big dog’ tee shirt, and he also had some expensive looking converse. He
was bragging about something. Boken and Rachel were too far to here and care.
The jock came over towards them. Boken continued to eat his Onigiri. Rachel
looked really nervous but it wasn’t the positive nervous it was more like
scared nervous. “Are still shaken up from last night Rachel?” asked Boken. “What? Oh no nothing like that it is just I
did something wrong to a friend in the past.” “Does that friend happen to
be veronica?” ‘No, this friend isn’t with
us anymore because of me.” “What happened?” She swallowed hard to be able
tell him. She was hesitant, “forget I asked Rachel it appears to be a sensitive
subject” He reassured her. “No, it’s okay, she committed suicide because her boyfriend
cheated on her with her best friend. Her friend really liked the guy so even
knowing this she still did it. I was that friend. Hate to be this way now it is your turn. You
mentioned a Ryoko yesterday. “Indeed, she was someone I
loved very much. My family and her family fought for generations. The
traditionalists still hold to that grudge. Well I fell for this girl that was a
part of that family. My oldest brother attempted to run me through. Ryoko got
in to the way and told him ‘if you want him you must go through me first’; she
didn’t realize at the time how ruthless my eldest brother Ryukai was. He ran
her through and nearly got me in the heart.” He unbuttoned his shirt. He had
many scars but on in particularly stood out. One scar stood out, the one where
the heart was located. He buttoned his shirt back up. “I’m sorry I should not
have made you tell me that.” She began to cry out of sympathy. “It is fine
Rachel, you and I are friends, it would have come out eventually. There is no
reason to cry over something that could not be helped.” He said putting his
hand on her shoulder. She looked up and with that same arm he dried her tears
with his thumb. Her face grew hot as he caressed her cheek. The jock came up to them
both. “So you found somebody to carry your baggage Carson?” said the jock. He
looked at Boken, “The b*****d that was adopted by the japs. So what you gonna
cut me with a samurai sword or something?” “Luke, knock it off leave
Boken alone!” “Or what you’ll sleep with me
again?” “I would never do that to
veronica!” “Why not you did it to the
other girl” “That was…” she went silent” “That’s what I thought w***e”
Boken rose up, “I am going to
have to implore you to knock off that disrespectful tone.” Luke looked at him like he
was crazy, “do you know who I am? I am Lucas Wyatt. My father is a main donator
to this school. That being said I’ll treat anybody the way I want.” Luke got up
in Boken’s face hoping to get a rise out of him. Boken stood there staring him
down. Luke threw a punch at Boken. Boken side stepped and tripped Luke. “What
are you guys staring at get him!” two of the jocks tried to punch him in
sequence. He grabbed both fists causing them to lay each other out. One of the
jocks grabbed from behind them and another tried to punch him. With the back of
his head knocked the jock that had him in submission, then di d a back flip,
once he was behind him he pushed him into the other. Over was out cold and
knocked the other over. The bell rang so they made their way to class leaving
the jocks to fend for themselves. © 2011 C.A.JordonAuthor's Note
