"The Last Samurai”

While Takumi was walking through the forest very solemn about how he was treated at training. He felt that he would never have the strength or courage to fight like the other samurai and decided he would never return.

It was late at night and Takumi decided to take a break and have some left over Wagashi he still had in his pocket. It was a very cool summer night so he decided to get some sleep by the river before he returned home in the morning.

While Takumi was fast asleep, a fish suddenly appears alongside him.

“Takumi, what are you doing here? You should be back in camp continuing your training,” the fish said.

“I quit the samurai’s. They did not think I had what it took to become one. I am to slow and weak to ever become a samurai” Takumi said.

“You do not become a great samurai overnight. It takes time and practice. Your father before you could not even swing a sword at first, but that did not stop him from becoming a great samurai general. The same type of gene is in you. You just got to believe,” explained the fish.
