Weg zum Shinobi
Way to the shinobi
Twenty-five-year-old Mr. Yuki Kanagawa, a famous actor with short black hair and average build, wanted to join his wife Aiaka Kanagawa, a novelist with long, slightly wavy, fiery red hair and his two children, Yuna and Chin were five and six years old to go on a journey. Since they lived in Europe, he asked his daughters: "Do we want to fly to Japan?" So Aiaka booked the tickets to Tokyo, the capital of the country. On the way there, Yuna and Chin looked out the windows and admired the beautiful view. "Oh mom, look, people are the size of ants," said Chin. "Yes, my dear. We are also thousands of meters high," she replied. Aiaka asked her two little treasures if they had to go to the toilet, but Yuna and Chin said no. Since she had to herself, she went alone. Suddenly, when she came out of the toilet, there was a loud bang in the stern. Something must have caused an explosion. Aiaka ran to her family, frightened. Yuna and Chin clung to Yuki, who was looking for Aiaka. "Dad, I'm scared!" Shouted both daughters. Aiaka finally came to them and asked: "What happened?" "It is suspected that a bomb had exploded. But what details are not yet known", Yuki replied. The plane lost altitude more and more. Kilometer by kilometer deeper. Ultimately you had to try to make a successful crash landing over the huge Japanese forests and crashed into a forest exactly in the middle. From there it was at least three hundred miles to one city. When Chin woke up, she wept loudly with the unconscious thought that maybe the others who had survived wake up. But only she, Yuna and Aiaka survived the crash. Aiaka was already awake and tried to comfort Chin and Yuna, who hadn't taken long to wake up after the six year old. The red-haired woman told them that her father was now in a better world, that he looked down on her and protected her. She had to be strong and tried to suppress her tears and sadness with a smile. Since they were hardly injured, the long haired woman did not have to worry about any physical damage. But she was concerned about the mental state of her children. A few hours passed and Aiaka buried her husband and all the other people who hadn't made it, because that's how Yuki would have wanted it. Yuna and Chin each took one hand and together they walked in one direction, hoping to find a city. After a few more hours my chin: "My feet hurt. Shall we take a break, mom?" She replied, "It's ok. We can do that, darling. We've been hiking for quite a while." give the children water and something to eat.Since it was very warm, water was very important. So she didn't drink anything herself and gave them all to her daughters. The novelist was lost in thought and did not notice that Chin was walking away from the break. "Aaaaaaah!" It suddenly sounded. Shocked, Aiaka ran after the voice. When she got there, she realized that a black panther had an appetite for Chin. "Don't move," said Aiaka. She was glad Chin had stopped from the start, albeit in fear. Otherwise the big cat would have preyed on Chin quickly. Aiaka slowly took a stone lying around and threw it at the cat. The panther was now watching Aiaka and no longer Chin. Chin's mother thought that if she ran away now, her daughters would be safe. And so she ran away. The red-haired girl fell dozens of times on sharp stones and branches, but her only thought was to protect Yuna and Chin. Hours passed and Aiaka never came back. Even though Chin was only six years old, she knew exactly what had happened. That her mother would never come back. She saw something like that on TV and applied it to this situation. During the lessons she had been back with Yuna. The one year older sister took her little sister by the hand and took the path towards civilization. Many days passed and Yuna did not speak a word. All that happened was too much to take. Almost starved, a ninja discovered the two and attacked them. Chin woke up to find that she and her sister were in bed. "Yuna, wake up," she said softly, gently shaking her. The five-year-old slowly woke up and looked around. Taking a deep breath, Chin said: "Come on, Yuna. Let's see where we are." Yunas "ok" she indicated that she stood up and held Chin's hand. The older sister went to the door with Yuna and pushed it open. Yuna screamed loudly, scared of the masked ninjas. The ninjas, who are also called shinobi, didn't care and waited until their sensei came. "How are you today?" Asked the sensei. With a friendly smile, he invited his guests to his tea house. The younger daughter of the Kanagawa family stopped screaming when she saw the master. They went into the house with him with suspicion and fear. "Who are you?" Asked Chin. "I'm Sensei Kawaguchi and I teach my students here. Who are you two? It's rare that we get visitors here," he replied. The six-year-old waited briefly and replied, “I'm Chin Kanagawa and this is my little sister Yuna. Can't you help her? She doesn't talk anymore.” Sensei Kawaguchi drank his hot Reubusch and listened carefully to her. The old man thought by the way whether the legend had now come true. In the meantime, a couple of his students would come to the tea house and provide the guests with plenty of food and drink. The children looked at it and didn't know whether they could take it and looked at the old man.Kawaguchi said: “Eat and drink as much as you want.” Chin carefully took a piece of fried meat, already cut into small pieces, and put it in his mouth, chewed and swallowed. Yuna saw that she was eating, so she also took pieces of meat and ate it. Since the daughters had almost starved to death, they ate everything empty. Until the last piece and drank enough. "You know, children, I want to be honest with you. There are still four hundred and fifty kilometers to the next town. There is no way you can do that. And I cannot do without someone here who can accompany you and protect you from the wild animals. But There is a legend that says that two little girls will come and one day will be great Shinobis who will protect our beloved earth. I think you are meant by that. Your parents are dead and you have no relatives. Didn't I come from Chin…. Said the sensei. However, they did not comment on this, but cried because they thought of their parents again.
A few days passed and agreed to stay in this strange place. The years passed quickly and Yuna still didn't speak a single word. But what was unstoppable was that they have now grown up and have been trained to be elite ninjas who respect people, nature and animals. Then the Kanagawa siblings knew that their decision to stay was the right one.
