[u]New Arrival. Dojo Gates. 11:23 p.m.[/u]
[b]Rook walked up the path to the dojo gates. He looked behind him wondering if this was the right choice, if he could abandon everything back home. Wondering if he would regret leaving everything behind. He slung his rifle over his back and walked up to the gates.[/b]
"Yo! Anyone, or anything there?"
[b]He knocked on the large gates seeing he could get someones attention. Worried who he he would see and who he would meet. But his new journey will soon start.[/b]

[b]A man peaks over the edge, holding a sniper that was aimed at your chest [/b] "Who's there"
-
"The name's Rook. And you?"
-
"You can call me Watcher. What do you want?"
-
"Juat trying to enter."
-
[b]He stands, slinging the sniper over his back as the gates creaked open. He hopped down, landing on the ground with a thud[/b] "Welcome to the Dojo."
-
"Well thanks for letting me in. So, what is this place?"
-
"A Place for warriors of all kinds to come and train."
-
[b]Rook pauses. Someone talking to him on the comms [/b] [i]Rook! Rook! Where are you!?![/i] "Yeah -blam!- you! I ain't coming back." [b]He tosses the radio away.[/b] "Well, this place looks nice. Any bars around. I could use a drink."
-
[b]Watcher looks at you, a bit curious [/b] "There's one in the dojo and quite a number of them in the village."
-
"Thanks, well, hopefully this will be better than what my home is." [b]Rook begins to walk into the Dojo.[/b]
-
"Where did you come from anyways?"
-
"It was my old home named Tarron. We were living a good life until a neighboring country attacked us. I joined the army for awhile. But I couldn't stand the horrors the war brought. So I ran off, looking to start a new life."
-
"What's the planet name? Sounds familiar."
-
"Some planet named Ronin or something like that. Never really tried to learn the name."
-
"And yet you fought for an army? Odd"
-
"Country and planet are two different things. I'm fighting for my country against another country. Not fighting for my planet against another planet."
-
"Good point. Still seems kind of odd. But that's just me."
-
"Yeah, I'll have to agree it's pretty odd. To this day I still wonder why we were never taught it in school"
-
"You purposefully weren't taught it??"
-
"I mean. It was a low-budget school system. Our dumbass president wouldn't make any laws to get more funding. Out all our cash into the military. Which is why most kids joined right out of high school."
-
"Heh. I see. Quite the president."
-
"Yeah, he was a jackass. The shit he promised. I'm telling you. He had to start the war. Only excuse to increase military funding by 75%"
-
"Holy shit. How much money went to you guys?"
-
"About 978 billion. We got more innovative technology. But Medicare was cut by 79%. Shittiest move ever."
-
"Damn that's really rough."
