M10: Boy, I am so happy I wasn't born back in the days in Japan...yikes

     Since I just created where the capitol of Japan will be, I'm feeling pretty great. So for today's mission, TTI has told me to go to a Samurai school, to attend. I'm pretty excited. I don't really know what I'm going to be seeing. I didn't learn much about Japan when I was in middle school, or I just don't remember.Sadly. I really like Japan, so I am looking forward to going to this school. But I just hope there isn't anything violent in there...
     Well, when I showed up, there were already people clanging their swords together, fighting. Well this is going to be an interesting journey. I watched them in combat for awhile to see all their techniques. It actually looked like they were trying to kill each other. Pretty scary huh? The most interesting thing about the whole thing is that they were wearing about 10 layers of clothes. "Wouldn't you get hot?" I said aloud. I was really curious, so I needed to figure out a way to find the answer.
      I got up and walked toward one of the Samurai that was flinging his sword around, dodging the other Samurai. "Um excuse me. I have a question." I said cautiously. All that I heard back from him was a whole bunch of "UH!" and "EH!" from dodging the swords. I guess practice makes perfect. I browsed to see anyone that looks like a teacher. Yes! I found a man! He was sitting on some kind of woven basket, he looked like he was getting pretty frustrated with his students. I ran through the chaos and emerged him. "Hello sir, I am Ava, I am very curious about these Samurai. Can you teach me?"
"Well of course! You are at a Samurai school. You are suppose to ask questions!"
"Well, cool!" I said excitedly.
"So, to start off, these are Samurais.Life in these days are very harsh. Samurai men have to train themselves to become the best they can by, thinking like they are already dead. They could never relax. An attack could come at any second, so they developed sixth sense." The man said. It really reminded me of The Hunger Games for some reason. It's just with all the battling and killing. Well, this is pretty cool. I never thought of Japan as this.
    Before I arrived here, I wasn't expecting to be any fighting. Well I expected wrong. There is a lot of fighting going on. I figured out why they wear so many layers though! It's because they are used for their armour.It was a pretty clever idea. They would wear up to 17 layers, I would think that they would get really hot running around so much. I just can't think of how they would've done it. It amazes me so.
    I know TTI wanted me to attend a Samurai school, but I think that is a little too dangerous, or they just want me to get killed. Because I would definitely get killed in the first 30 seconds of training. I just decided to look around, and learn about it instead. They practice like they are already in a war. That's how serious and competitive it is. I don't think I will ever see something like this again. Well probably because I'm in the past, and this stuff doesn't really happen too often.
