Yashahime: Solomon's Journey

Chapter One

Solomon Yasuke.

His first name came from one of the wisest kings of Judah and Israel.

His last name came from the first African American samurai.

Solomon was a Bronze skinned boy with blond dreads and emerald green eyes.

Solomon's height was around 5'9 and his body type was toned and slim.

Solomon lived in Japan [Tokyo] since he was 8 years old.

Solomon's original hometown was California [Long Beach to be precise]

It was where his father and mother met during their time in college.

After college and marriage and after Solomon was born, his parents were given a job promotion that led them and a young Solomon to Tokyo Japan.

For the next 7 years? Solomon would attend Japanese schools and put up with the personas and characteristics of Japanese girls and boys.

One persona he had to put with the most, was the persona of Towa Higurashi.

Now Towa was a sweet girl.

The problem was Towa got into various fights.

And Solomon, being the peacemaker that he was, had to break up the fights that Towa got into.

Fights she would get into with girls AND boys.

And he was given a few licks for interfering.

But for some reason Solomon wasn't bruised or hurt.

Or had any signs of any injury.

It was bizarre.

Just like his strength.

Just like his speed.

Just like his intelligence.

Solomon realized pretty quickly that he wasn't like the other kids.

And that realization seemed to make him interesting.

In Towa's eyes.

But Solomon never paid any attention to Towa unless she got into fights with other kids.

It was Towa's only chance to get his attention.
