Trust is like a tea cup once broken no matter how well you are try it rarely ever is the same.
What would drive someone to betray themselves, what would it take to betray your own principles. What does it mean.
" The yin Yang clan has extended its arms to accept you all. This path has been open since the day you each met the council.
Today you are to consider the reason you came here in the first place. It cannot be forced upon you although at this point it might.
As of now you are all miniscule shades, not worthy of a thing, your lives are meaningless, you aren't needed. But, each and every one of you can exist, you can be needed, you can have worth. In a world like this one the most minor things have the most potential, because it isn't considered at all.
Saying this path is swearing your life to something greater than you, to something greater than itself. The yin Yang clan is not just a monetary opportunity it is everything.
You have the opportunity to become the shadow of something this great.
If you say this oath your lives would be in their hands, your lives would become fragile.
I need to emphasis the meaning of this oath it's level of significance.
Betraying it or failing to uphold a part of it would mean...
If you are still interested in this stay if not leave." Although jester was smiling everyone felt the air tense. Except from those who wanted to leave, no one else left.
Cly couldn't believe how many insane people where in this place at this moment in time
' I mean I know why I'm doing it but what's with the others '
Jester came within their ranks, he then instructed them each to raise a hand.
He walked by each of us and slit the tip of our fingers and used a thin strip to clean it for each person.
" A shadow is formless."
He stopped in front of a dwarf
" It has no consideration"
He moved unto the next person
" It is non existent. But you would be required to become it, be required to live like it"
Cly felt like he was in some sort of cult meeting but he played along.
" A shadow given purpose, is a slave to its purpose"
He looked Kris in the eyes then passed her on to Nathan.
" Your purpose is to serve yin Yang"
He gathered every single slip and placed into a bag.
" Your purpose is to be nothing, unless instructed otherwise"
Cly couldn't wait for this to be over.
"Repeat after me.
I am, because I was given purpose
I exist to serve my purpose
Yin Yang is my caster
And it's shade
I'm dark so another can live with light
In me is dread,
I'm the taker of life, the taker of futures
I'm the taker of futures.
I am a shadow of the yin Yang ".
Each of the shades said the statement one at a time Infront of jester.
Cly couldn't help but feel like he'd joined the mafia.
He said the oath
That night he stared at his roof. So many thoughts were passing through his head at that moment In time.
Eventually he side stepped everything then remembered. He remembered his reason for staying, his reason for leaving Shinjuku.
Their bloody faces were all hung up in the mind of cly.
The shades weren't given a moments rest, immediately after the oath they were required to get back to their curriculums.
Which meant more of instructor dark.
' sigh'
The teacher didn't even wait a bit he simply charged the whole class to get moving.
