《Behind Closed Doors》Old People and Swords

"100? I'm not as patient as you all think I am."
"Nobody ever said you were patient." Sasuke just had to speak up.
"You haven't said a word this entire time and the first thing you have to say to me is an insult? I'll remember that."
He just shrugged. Kids these days so rude, and honestly I'm sick of it. I glared at him and turned back to Kakashi.
"Uhh, by the way, I'm not sitting through 100 of those missions. I heard that other teams were getting babysitting. I do not, let me repeat, do not associate with babies."
"You were a baby once to Naruko," Sakura interjected.
"Yeah and I hated myself then too."
She just sputtered like usual, and Kakashi ignored my earlier statement completely.
"Everyone goes home for today, we will get our next mission tomorrow and probably start doing more than once a day."
We all groaned and I rushed off as soon as possible. I think there was a rat under my steps this morning and I wasn't about to have a rat problem in my apartment. They were cute but I cannot share food.
As I walked in the door to my apartment I saw it. The rat, except it wasn't a rat.
News fucking flash it was a fat ass spider that looked about as big as Kurama and crawled around with the same amount confidence as Ino and Sakura.
What the fuck.
"Leave my house- leave my house! What the- holy shit- how did you get in! I'll call the fucking police. I'll call them I swear to the lord all mighty I will reign down on your people with so much anger you'll shake in fear," the spider made a move towards me.

"IM SORRY PLEASE LEAVE-"
Ended up having to ask Kurama for help to get rid of it but now it's gone. I think that was one of the scariest moment in many peoples lives including my own.
"This is the calmest you've been in the many years I've been alive, this makes me emotional I need a moment."
"I've got goosebumps, telling a lie on a live broadcast."
"I'm just hurt that you'd lie. It's obvious that compared to Sakura and Ino my lips plump as fuck. Leave me alone."
I walked to a small weapon shop not far from my apartment.
They charged more, but they didn't seem to really hold a grudge on me.
Honestly I think they just charge more because of better quality, but all these hate crimes against me got me paranoid.
I had saved up quite a bit of money and could buy many shuriken and kunai. I didn't need too many new ones, but I was excited to buy one thing I'd been waiting for.
I had custom ordered a sword that was honestly about to become my pride and joy. This thing was practically, literally was, worth my entire life. It had taken me years. Actual years to save up for this and I was never going to get over it.
It was a hand forged high carbon steel blade with a tungsten edge full tang katana. Long description for just the blade, but a gorgeous sword in my opinion.
The blade was black steel with the tungsten edge. Flames of tungsten worked into the black steel to create beautiful art on the blade itself. It was only somewhat curved, being mostly a straight edged blade.
The black rain-guard was somewhat larger than most other swords had was carved with the face of a traditional Japanese dragon.

The entire hilt was an easily gripped matte black with light texture that felt nice on the hands, the pommel turning into the carved face of the same snarling dragon as before only this time turned to its side.
The scabbard was a simple weaved one, but it complimented nicely with the fancy hilt and textured grip.
The entire thing being the dark black with a simple red gem in the hilt.
To say I was obsessed was an understatement.
Maybe it was weird to love a sword so much, but all I really gotta say is. When did I ever give a single fuck.
'Sometimes you gotta be the person you've tried so hard to suppress.' I'm so inspiring this is insane. Write this shit down.
I could almost smell the face Kurama was making.
Anyway I booked it home and tucked my sword into bed, sleeping my best that night.

Today was the day. The day I either spit or get spat on. Uhm.
By that I mean, I'm gonna yell at that old man until he gives in and assigns my team a c rank, or fucking smacks me upside the head.
I met the rest of this crummy team outside the Hokage tower. They all looked relatively upset because Kakashi had joked about getting us a babysitting mission.
I say joked, because I will convince this old fucker no matter what.
We walked in and at first I was gonna be respectful... I really was going to be! But then I realized. I don't care pfft.
"Gramps! You know damn well what I'm here to talk about!"
He sighed but smiled at me nonetheless. I just shot him back with a smirk.
"Naruko! That's no way to talk to the Hokage!" Sakura basically cried.
I think I'm getting better at ignoring her, because it only sounds like a small fly now.
"So you gonna give us a C-rank or what, you old motherf-"
Kakashis hand made his way to my mouth. Complaining about how he's "gonna get in so much trouble" that really sucks for him am I right.
"Alright I'll give you a C-rank."
Everyone collectively gave their own signs of shock. Even me, I wasn't expecting him to give in so easily. Even if I was one hell of a convincing person.
"What are you planning, you backstabbing piece of sh-"
"You'll be an escort."
"Ya'll love to cut me off."
"Who are we escorting?" Sakura's voice rang out.
"You'll meet him."
"I swear to kami"

Hazelsong: A LitRPG Novel
Release Schedule: I will be moving to a set release schedule as of 1/1/2022. A new chapter will be released every Saturday at Noon EST. If I have time that week for a second chapter, I will leave a note on the Saturday chapter and post the second chapter on Sunday at Noon EST. An up to date character sheet for the MC Erik will also be posted on Sundays at 12:15 PM. If life happens and I am for some reason unable to write that week, I will post a blank chapter giving you an update on where I am with my writing. Saturday Noon EST: First weekly chapter Sunday Noon EST: Second weekly chapter (if I have the time) Sunday 12:15 EST: Updated character sheet Synopsis: Years after surviving a deadly accident, Erik struggles to come to terms with his painful disability. When offered the chance to playtest the world's first full immersion VRMMO, he wants nothing more than to retreat back into his secluded life, until he learns what Hazelsong really offers. An escape from the pain. Hazelsong is a world of magic and adventure, a place where friendships are formed, loot is won, and glory and fame are there for the taking. While the threats feel real and the stakes are always high, there is only one thing Erik is really in danger of. Forgetting which world is actually real. Story Themes: Hazelsong is a LitRPG novel that not only explores the fictional world of a realistic online fantasy realm but the life of a man suffering in silence from chronic pain and PTSD due to a significant physical injury and disability. Mental health is an important subject and we all know at least one person in our lives who has or is dealing with some form of mental illness. I plan on putting my best effort forward to represent these illnesses in a fair and accurate manner. Not as a cheap plot device to help make the protagonist more unique, but to help paint an accurate picture for those of us who have been lucky enough to not have to suffer in silence. About the Author: I am Ash Durra, general video game nerd and a connoisseur of fantasy and sci-fi of all shapes and sizes. Needless to say, I am not a professional author (B.S. and M.S. in Education, 8 years teaching). After really getting into LitRPG novels over the past several years, I found my way to Royal Road, which has inspired me to use my spare time to begin writing a story of my own creation. As this is a hobby, I am not writing and posting chapters on any kind of specific schedule at the moment, though my goal is to post on average 1-2 chapters a week. I am incredibly excited to share this story with others as I write it, and I look forward to any constructive feedback about how I can improve in my writing.
