CAESAR LOOKS UP AS HE'S STILL LAYING IN THE CRATER IN THE Ground CAUSED BY HUNTER, WITH BLOOD DRIPPING OUT OF HIS MOUTH CAESAR BEGINS TO SHAKE AS HE JUST WITNESSED A MURDER
Cut back to a wide shot of the Both of them
CAESAR VALENTINE (muffled)
you, you killed him
the man with the blood-stained sword says nothing and puts his head down to Where his eyes are barely visible and we zoom in on his blood-stained sword as he puts it back into it's case. we cut back to Caesar on the ground he then passes out due to his injuries and wakes up about 4 hours later as the man takes him to a Buddhist temple
the temple is very bright with there being plenty of gold and a giant statue of buddha in the middle looking very peaceful, among it are some floor mats and other things such as very nice paintings on the wall
We do a birds-eye spiral shot as Caesar wakes up in a state of daze and there is a cold rag on his forehead and his face is all bandaged up. he notices the man who Saved him is sitting across the room meditating in front of the buddha statue
CAESAR VALENTINE (V.O)
oh Crap there's that guy, why did he take me to this place, it's very cool looking but that's not the important part why did he save me
We get a close-up shot of Caesar's feet as he gets up and walks up to the man and bows
CAESAR VALENTINE *sweating* close-up on his face
thank you for saving me
Caesar begins to get nervous and starts sweating even more
CAESAR VALENTINE
uhh I'm sorry was that ok the whole bow thing?
I don't really know how the culture works
KEN JAKUU
It is no problem at all, and yes in my culture bowing is a way to show thanks or respect so
you got that correct
Caesar notices the mans hand and sees the number 532,643
Caesar jumps back in fear
CAESAR VALENTINE
you you you you're one of thos- I mean you
have a number on your hand
KEN JAKUU
please do not fear me as I will not attack you, not as I could even have a chance of beating you I mean you are the number 5
CAESAR VALENTINE
heh that's a really funny story because yeah, I
got this by accident
KEN JAKUU (very shocked)
by accident? how did you manage to do a task like that
CAESAR VALENTINE
so I was at work right and my shift was up and I was on my way home that's when I noticed I needed gas, so I went to get some and I saw a cute girl at the gas station and I was like wow a cute girl and then she was being harassed. so I thought hey I should teach this guy a lesson so I took a golf club out of my car and I hit him over the head with it and then BOOM this was on my hand
KEN JAKUU
I am still curious of how the number 5 was able to be bested by a simple golf club
CAESAR VALENTINE
maybe I just got lucky, but that's beside the point what are you?
ken Jakuu
I am ken, ken jakuu
CAESAR VALENTINE
no no no I mean what's with the robe and the sword and all that
ken Jakuu
I am ken
CAESAR VALENTINE
so are you like a samurai or something
KEN JAKUU
*chuckles* you are a man with a fire in him but in that fire is a small dark core so don't let desire stray you away from the right path
CAESAR VALENTINE
whatever, I don't think I'll have to worry about that, all I have to worry about is surviving. I mean if that guy was the number 5 and your number is like 300,000 something then that means that there are tons of people out there who want to kill me. *long pause* wait could you maybe train me
KEN JAKUU
no
CAESAR VALENTINE
why not man, I saw how you killed that guy and I know that you're a serious badass
KEN JAKUU (angry)
I killed that man to protect an innocent life! you want to learn how to fight for all the wrong reasons. you say you want to be "badass" then you're fighting for all the wrong reasons!
Caesar makes a face of awkwardness as he knows the whole vibe has been killed thanks to him
CAESAR VALENTINE
so who taught you how to fight?
KEN JAKUU
many great men. they taught me in not only in the way of the sword but archery, wrestling, ax throwing, if you can name it I at least know the basics of it.
CAESAR VALENTINE
Are you sure that none of it was for personal gain because that sounded like a huge flex
KEN JAKUU
no none of it was. that the difference between me and you
CAESAR VALENTINE
so then why learn it
KEN JAKUU
to protect the ones I care about
there is a long pause of silence as Caesar rethinks everything he has said to Ken and how he probably came off super selfish
CAESAR VALENTINE
you mind if I ask another question?
KEN JAKUU
not at all
CAESAR VALENTINE
is there like any chance that you can be like my sort of bodyguard
KEN JAKUU
Do you want protection for other fighters who are after your number?
CAESAR VALENTINE
yes, oh and don't worry ill pay you.
KEN JAKUU
hahahahahaha no need I will Always protect someone who can't protect himself, in fact, I have an even better idea. I'm on my way to my master jets dojo I can take you and he will judge you and see if you are worthy of being trained.
CAESAR VALENTINE
ok, that sounds fine where's his dojo?
KEN JAKUU
in japan
CAESAR VALENTINE *hollow face*
japan is super far dude do you even realize how far japan is
KEN JAKUU
no
CAESAR VALENTINE
how did you even get here? oh never mind. let me just check, yeah see no flights going to japan any time soon.
KEN JAKUU
do you perhaps own a car
CAESAR VALENTINE
yeah I do
KEN JAKUU
then we could always drive
CAESAR VALENTINE
but I'm broke and that's a lot of gas money, but I don't really see any other options *long pause* actually, hold on you obviously don't know much about things like this
KEN JAKUU
I do not follow
CAESAR VALENTINE
You can't drive to Japan it's impossible
KEN JAKUU
Nothing is impossible if you put your head in the right place. that's what my master always tells me, but then again he always yells at me if I do not bow to him so I do not know if I can take his word
CAESAR VALENTINE
what?, oh never mind, Dude the ocean how can I drive on the ocean
KEN JAKUU
We could always go by boat
CAESAR VALENTINE
Hold up let me see something *checks his phone* ok so a boat I can afford but just barley, that will be almost all my money and it will take anywhere from 20 to 28 days plus we have to drive to California Which is another 26 hours plus gas
KEN JAKUU
No matter how long it takes I will stay with you and protect you as it is samurai code to protect an innocent man in need of help
CAESAR VALENTINE
If your gonna do that you might as well just teach me
KEN JAKUU
I am not the one capable of Judging you to see if you're worthy of learning how to fight
CAESAR VALENTINE
You're making this a lot harder than it needs to be
KEN JAKUU
So do you still not desire my help?
CAESAR VALENTINE
No, that's not it, I do, I really do ahhhhh your kind of an ass, I guess we're taking a boat to Japan so pack your stuff.
CAESAR VALENTINE
alright ken I got all my stuff packed and I'm ready to go
*ken walks into frame wearing what he had on before when Caesar thought he was packing* where is all your stuff
KEN JAKUU
this is all I have
CAESAR VALENTINE
but you had tons of stuff at your house just before
KEN JAKUU
that wasn't my house that was a Buddhist temple
CAESAR VALENTINE
So you just broke into a Buddhist temple
KEN JAKUU
No, the temples are open to everyone even if they are not a Buddhist
CAESAR VALENTINE
Dang what nice people
they head off on the road as its now the middle of the night
CAESAR VALENTINE
hey, so like what have I really gotten myself into with this whole number 5 fighter in the world
KEN JAKUU
we are in what is known as the LOF or the league of fighters and you are number 5 out of the what I can only assume to be thousands of other fighters on the planet and they are all competing for the number one
CAESAR VALENTINE
do you get anything for becoming number one?
KEN JAKUU
no one really knows but there are a couple of theories that are floating around, some believe that you get the powers of a god some believe you meet God, some believe that you a granted a perfect wish, but no one really knows what you get from being number one
CAESAR VALENTINE
Do we have any idea who the number one is
KEN JAKUU
no one has ever heard or seen him but it is said that a single glance from him can kill a man in an instant
CAESAR VALENTINE
are you kidding me? and I'm only 4 spots below that guy
KEN JAKUU
and now that you are the number 5 you have a target on your back the size of a country, so you need to be watching it at all times.
CAESAR VALENTINE
ok dude not trying to sound like a jerk but you're freaking me out and I don't like it
KEN JAKUU
my apologies but it is the truth and this truth is hard to swallow. so now is the time to let it all out and clear your mind and focus your mind and know what challenges your going to have to face in the future
skip ahead a couple of hours and ken seems to be asleep and Caesar is getting visibly more tired and he is the only car on the road for miles
CAESAR VALENTINE
hey yo, ken are you asleep?
KEN JAKUU
no
CAESAR VALENTINE
but you haven't made a sound for like 3 hours
KEN JAKUU
I know I've been meditating
CAESAR VALENTINE
that's sick
KEN JAKUU *more confused*
I feel fine
CAESAR VALENTINE
no dude sick means like good
KEN JAKUU
oh, well I can see it's getting late and you're getting very tired
CAESAR VALENTINE
what can you like sense it or something
KEN JAKUU
no, you have yawned around 5 times in the past 3 minutes, perhaps we should stop and rest at a hotel
CAESAR VALENTINE
How do you know what a hotel is but you don't know that you can't drive to Japan?
KEN JAKUU
We have hotels in Japan
CAESAR VALENTINE
Oh jeez never mind can you grab my phone and I'll see if I can find a hotel
KEN JAKUU
I don't see it
CAESAR VALENTINE
It's the thing with the glass screen and when you touch it, it should light up
KEN JAKUU *HOLDING PHONE*
Is it this
CAESAR VALENTINE
Yeah, since I'm driving you think you can look up if there's a hotel near us
KEN JAKUU
I do not know how to use a phone but I will try to figure it out
Ken is pounding on the screen with his finger and overall just manhandling the phone to where it seems like it's going to break
CAESAR VALENTINE
Woah ken chill phones aren't cheap you know
KEN JAKUU
*silence*
CAESAR VALENTINE
ken chill your gonna break it
Caesar tries to grab the phone from ken not realizing that he is going off the road And he crashes his car into a ditch and totals it
