The ninja's code

Chapter 1: The code

There are many things that tends to threaten our lives, our purpose, and even our existence. I'd never understood the concept of that until I started to age up to an adult, and everything started to enter my conscience mind crystal clear. My name is Saito, I'm 25 years old and nothing about me has changed. Everything about me feels dead, my past, and also the time of the present. Everything had changed when I was just a child, my entire family, and my village was all burned into an endless pit of ashes with so many lives of the innocent all buried beneath the destruction. I manage to survive it all but barely, and everything else that I'd lived for had all vanished with just a blink of an eye.

The only figures that I can still remember on that were these men dressed in black, hiding their identity with their masks, and their actions were far more than just cruel for anyone else to witness. The day that I had seen those men still strikes my heart in fear, the way that I was disconnected from my family is still painful and unbearable to remember. I tried to save them all but once the scorching fires and deadly explosions came by towards the village, it was too late. I was lost for days and couldn't find anything that will do me at least some good, I couldn't last another week until someone had finally found me. Another young boy named Kyo and he was just about the same age that I was before. He's been a friend that I grew up with, or I could say we're more like brothers since the day he'd found me and brought me into his village which is my home now.

The Kai village is where I've been living for quite a while and It hasn't really changed much since I arrived at the village. It is one beautiful village to live but there was more than just living your life onto one's village. The leading masters who are in charge of the entire village and are most responsible for hiring drill instructors for training other men and woman around the village as well. When I reached the village to make myself at home, Kyo wanted to show me what he had in mind. When he had shown me a certain area at the village, It was an open opportunity to regain everything that I had lost. Such as my courage, my strength, and most ought to be fearless.

The drill instructor had informed the both of us that this was the training of a true ninja and was looking for more new students to train. The both of us had agreed to join the training system to learn how to defend ourselves, protect the lives of others, and most importantly to become a true shinobi of the village. It takes years to reach the level of a true shinobi and dedication is most required but always start from the lowest first. I've studied the arts of ninjutsu with Kyo for years since our childhood and I'm still studying as currently for now. There was one more rule that the masters of the Kai village had ordered us ninjas to follow which he referred it as the ninja's code.

Most importantly, the code is the only rule that we ninjas have to follow if you still want to receive the training from your drill instructors and is most extreme to follow with respect towards the entire the village.

This is the code that all ninjas of the Kai village should follow with respect:

"All secrets remain in the shadows, such as your identity that will remain hidden away. There should be no certain contact within the outside world, and also jeopardizing your own identity towards the inhabitants of the outside world. You shall not betray your fellow allies, or turn yourself to the deceitful path of darkness. You shall not separate yourselves, for that you shall fight not as divided but as one".
