📔- A memory from a journal/diary entry (bonus if it involves Hanzo)

Memories [ o p e n ] - @kathexismania​

  Flame’s journal has always been a secret to everyone, keeping it well-hidden in her room after all, she doesn’t write much on its pages unless it’s something she really wants to remember in her future days.

    After a hard-training afternoon with her Grandmaster, Flame decided to take the night off from meditation and instead lay down on her futon while her mind spaces out as she starts staring blankly into her ceiling, losing herself in her thoughts, it’s just one of those lazy nights, her muscles feel slightly sore even after a long, steamy bath. After a few moments of silence, her heterochromic orbs roll to the side to look at her bottom drawer, thinking of an specific object she remembered she had hidden in it-- A journal.

“ By the Gods...When was the last time I wrote something? “  She mumbled to herself as she let out a small giggle.

 She rolls over, her belly laying down on the the hard surface of her floor and lifts herself in all fours to crawl to the furniture and kneels down upon reaching it, her fingerss hook on the handle to pull open said drawer before taking out what appears to be her journal, the poor old-looking notebook could’ve seen better days but there it was. 

Flame couldn’t help but to smile as her fingertips brush some of the dust off the hard cover before opening it, flipping some of the pages ending up landing on a random moment from her past.

  Today was a strange day, I wouldn’t be writting it down if it wasn’t but here I am. 

While I was hiking I came across a a building-- a temple, but a temple sorrounded by beautifully autumn colored trees, the wind chimes and the relaxing sound of leaves, it felt peaceful and..warm? I wanted to go in and explore but apparently a clan of ninjas reside there.

Hmm, I might try sneaking in but I must be cautious just in case..

    It’s the middle of the night and I managed to successfully sneak into the temple without being noticed-- that’s good. I saw them, I saw the ninjas training with their grandmaster. The Grandmaster though-- He appears to have the power to summon fire aswell!  This is going to sound crazy but I wonder if he could teach me to control my flames, I’ve tried for so long and I come to realize that I can’t do it by myself.

I will try to sneak by again and see what methods he uses to control his powers. I hope I don’t get caught, that guy looks intimidating......

He’s also pretty handsome 

The last part of that sentence is scribbled over.

By the Gods, ignore that last part..

  So-- I got caught by someone patroling the gardens late at night, a guy apparently named Takeda(?). He literally used whips to tie my legs around and make me fall! ugh, sneaky. Luckily, I wasn’t executed on the spot, when the grandmaster came up to me I couldn’t speak my intentions,his presense sent shivers down my spine, his stare was intimidating....(plus he is a huge guy!)

  Somehow I gather up the strength and courage to say something at that moment and those words were “Please help me control my powers...” In the end we made some sort of ‘deal’: Be trained to control my powers in exchange for joining the clan. Of course, I agreed and now here I am, 

  I am now a member of the Shirai-Ryu..Who would’ve thought, huh?  I guess this is the start of a new life, maybe this is exactly what I needed. Well, I must go get some rest, tomorrow is my first day of training with my new grandmaster--

Hanzo Hasashi.
