Chapter 84: The katana
The girls and Terrence were going through their attic, cleaning and clearing out everything.
Tracer: I don't remember having so much stuff up here
Amelia: yeah it's also dirty up here, so we'll have to clean up the dust and stuff later
Tracer: I know
Bridgett: I'm tired....
Amelia: you can rest for a bit, but you have come back and help us
Tracer: when you're done resting, can you bring some ice tea for us please? I'm gonna have a break soon as well
Bridgett: Ok!
Bridgett headed downstairs to rest as everyone else is working.
Tracer: where is Terrence?
Amelia: he's somewhere in the attic upstairs going through some stuff to see what he wants to keep and what he doesn't want to keep
Tracer: wait I could do that also?
Amelia: yeah, if you have stuff you want to keep, go ahead
Tracer: Shit! I got to go find the things I threw away! There was some books I wanted to keep!
Tracer runs downstairs as Amelia shakes her head.
Amelia: Terrence! You alright up there?
Terrance: I'm fine
Amelia: I'm going to rest, come join us when you're done
Terrence: ok
Terrence was going through some box, just find old cooking magazines and other cook books
Terrence: maybe these cook books can help me-
He then noticed something that caught his eye between some boxes.
Terrence: huh?
He moves the boxes and reaches over and pulls out a katana
Terrence: ...
Flashback:
Mother: I'm sorry... but my time has come... there is something under the stairs your father wanted to give you... take it and go... I love you honey... to the bottom of my heart... now go...
Flashback ended:
Terrence: my father...
He opens the katana and looks at the blade and then closing it
Terrence: "who was my father?"
Terrence heads downstairs to find the girls on the couch taking a break and drinking some ice tea
Amelia: hey Terrence, did you find anything you don't want?
Terrence: some yes, but I'm keeping the cook book
Tracer: oh god...
Terrence: what?
Tracer: you better not go to the grocery store later, your chef side is scary
Terrence: oh come on it's not that scary
Amelia: Terrence, you literally made a cafe a hell's kitchen
Terrence: it's was that one time, and no I'm not going to the grocery store
Tracer: good!
Bridgett: what do you have?
Bridgett points at the katana, but Terrence hides it.
Terrence: it's nothing, but I'll be right back, I have to stop somewhere
Amelia: alright, be back before we end up throwing away your stuff you want to keep
Terrence: alright
He heads out the door, and makes his way to octo canyon.
Terrence: "maybe the capn knows about my father"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The capn was in the control room as the workers in the other room, trying to find where Octavio is
Capn: anything yet?
Worker: no sir
Terrence: capn
Capn: ah, agent 9, what brings you here
Terrence: I have a question
Capn: I'm listening
Terrence shows the capn the katana, which surprised him.
Capn: can I see it?
Terrence: uh, yeah
He hands the katana over to the capn, which he opens it and looks at the blade, until putting it away.
Capn: where did you get this?
Terrence: my mother gave it to me before she died, she told me it was from my father
Capn: your father... wait does that mean, your his son!?
Terrence: yeah... do you know him?
Capn: yes, his name was Aooni, he was one of my top soldiers and fought along side Tadayoshi's grandfather Aaron during the Great Turf war and this katana belonged to him, he was also called the green dragon
Terrence: what was he?
Capn: well, he was a great samurai in his country that he lived in and protected, and was a leader of a samurai group
Terrence: country?
Capn: yeah, he lived in city named Kyoto, they live in a more Japanese tradition, so everything there is like Japanese culture, I've seen pictures of that place, and it's pretty nice. I haven't visited there for a while. It's also has been away from society for some strange reason
Terrence: do you know what happened to him?
Capn: from what I remembered, after the war ended, we all went our separated ways, and after we split for the next few days, he was killed back at his country, I don't know how he was killed, may he rest in piece
Terrence: I don't understand, why did my mother and father live separately?...
Capn: hey, that's what you got to figure out
Terrence: what else do you know about him?
Capn: from what I can remember, he joined us during the war because he said if the war continued, it will come and destroy his country, I guess he really loved his country. The one thing I'm surprised is that you're his son and seeing that you have his katana, your probably his replacement since he's gone
Terrence: yeah... thank you capn
Capn: anytime, and also let us know if you know where Octavio is
Terrence: on it capn
As Terrence makes his way to exits out of the base, he continues to stare at his katana
Terrence: I need to know more about him!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tadayoshi: ok first off... why did you bring him here
BeatBox: what's wrong with me being here?
Tadayoshi: your annoying as fuck
BeatBox: come on, don't be like that
Terrence: can I talk now please
BeatBox: yes sorry
The boys were at octo canyon where Terrence brought tadayoshi and BeatBox to chat with
Tadayoshi: why did you call us? I was trying to pay my bills
Terrence: ok, you see this katana
He sets down the katana on the table as BeatBox and tadayoshi look at it.
BeatBox: it's a nice katana
Tadayoshi takes the katana and opens it, looking at the blade until putting it back.
Tadayoshi: your katana happens to have small crystal sphere on its handle, like my pen
Terrence: now that you mention it... it does
Tadayoshi: alright what about this katana?
Terrence: well I found out that it belong to a famous samurai that happened to be my father
BeatBox: interesting
Tadayoshi: so why are you telling us?
Terrence: well I have decided, that I'm going to my fathers home country
Tadayoshi: where exactly did your father live?
Terrence: Kyoto
BeatBox: oooooh!
Tadayoshi: you're gonna need to be on a plane rather than a train to get there
Terrence: I know, and I want to ask you guys if you wanted to come along
BeatBox: wait really?!
Terrence: yeah I could use that time to relax
BeatBox: I'm down! I want to see all of the interesting music they got there!
Tadayoshi: it's tempting...
Terrence: well if you go there, you can catch a break from the girls
Tadayoshi: point made... alright I'll go
Terrence: thank you
BeatBox: when are we leaving?
Terrence: tonight
Tadayoshi: fuck... there goes my sleep
BeatBox: relax it will be fun!
Tadayoshi: shut the fuck up BeatBox
Terrence: alright, see you guys tonight
BeatBox: alrighty then
Tadayoshi: ok
The boys leave octo canyon and Terrence makes his way back home.
Terrence: girls I'm home-
He see Amelia waiting at the front door angrily
Amelia: where have you been?
Terrence: uhh... places
Amelia: well since your were gone for so long, We threw away everything upstairs
Terrence: wait! Don't tell me you threw away my cooking magazines!
Amelia: I probably did
Terrence quickly turns and runs outside to find the trash the girls threw away
Terrence: you monster!
Amelia: that's what you get
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Later at night, Terrence arrives at the airport, where he find tadayoshi on his phone and BeatBox listening to music, already past the gate while waiting
Terrence: sorry I'm late, the people took forever checking my bags
Tadayoshi: alright how many planes do we have to take?
Terrence: just one
Tadayoshi: good I hate planes
BeatBox: Afraid we're gonna crash?
Tadayoshi: no because the places you sit, the people are so fucking annoying, they don't share the arm rest, the people in front lean their chair back, and sometimes people behind puts their feet on the back of your chair, most important they don't shut up
BeatBox: meh, I like the planes because I like watching it take off out the window, besides don't worry, I got tickets to sit at the first class seat
Terrence/tadayoshi: ...
BeatBox: what?
Tadayoshi: for once your useful
BeatBox: WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?!
Terrence: um guys I think our plane is about to leave soon
BeatBox: oh shit, lets go!
They all began running to their plane which they luckily make it.
Tadayoshi: so how long is this plane trip?
Terrence: I believe 2hrs
Tadayoshi: *groan* it's not enough, once we're there I'm going to sleep
Terrence: do what you want
They begin to enter the plane and got to their first class seats, as they prepare for their trip to Kyoto
Somewhere in Kyoto:
???: you have been doing so well
???2: thank you
???: honestly I never thought you would do so well ruling this place... DJ Octavio
Octavio: I had my way of ruling here
???: and it's good, since I can continue to grow and rule the entire country, not even aooni can't come and stop me this time
Octavio: yeah, that man was annoying
???: glad that we can agree on the same thing, now if you excuse me? I have some... business to intend to
Octavio: hehehe....
