This story is a Fantasy one, and im just starting it so..srry if it isnt good
_____________________________________
[color="White"][SIZE="2"]A man stood at the front of the building labeled 'The Past'. As I watched him curiously, he sat silent with his legs crossed and his hands joined together. He sat silent humming something, but only I could hear. A tune that flowed, in my mind I could see the dragons swaying up and down gracefully...like a tale I once heard about the four dragons.
When I was little my grandmother told me great tales of the men who risked their life's to met the dragon. Many died but also one lived, it was a boy named Jinhai. As he finished he bowed his head saying "xie xie" and getting up slowly.
I walked towards him but then my sister shouted quietly, "Lei, come on."
I turned around and replied "I have to do something, one minute" before walking towards the man.
My sister flipped her hair and walked off. As I approached him I bowed then said "Sensi, I heard the song you sung. Can you teach me?"
The man looked at me, not like I asked a dumb question but like he knew something about me. Opening his mouth then shutting it he nodded bowing. No one ever bowed to me before, I was known as the poorer people. Why did this man bow? I wondered.
"Lei!" My sister dared to shout as loud as she did. I jumped and turned around quickly, "Hurry up!"
Looking at the man I said, "I have to go, but I will come again tomorrow", bowing and walking after my sister, Huo.
Sitting in the car as mother drove home, I couldn't stop wondering why the man bowed to me. Thats when I noticed it, my hand had a dark black thing driven into it, like ink on paper but I wouldnt go away. On my hand was a symbol of Sairys, the Dragon god of Wind. I stood quiet, unable to speak, but then some words finally left my lips. "Huo, look" I said showing her my hand.
"what?" she asked looking at my hand, "why do I want to see your hand?"
"Just look, theres a sign on it" I replied.
"No there isnt, just your skin" she snapped. Then it came clear to me, only I could see it. Did that mean she didnt see the man before? only me talking to myself? I wondered.[/SIZE][/color]

As we got home, I sat silent looking at the strange sign. It had a drawing of wind symbol. looked at every tiny detail but then once everyone left the room it started to glow. The song the man sung ran through my head, like the story. "Am I the one?" I asked outloud.
"Lei! Bed!" My sister shouted, I didnt notice her by me.
"Ten minutes" I replied.
She did the thing that she did earlyer, the hair flippy thing. As I watched her leave, making sure she left, I lit the candel under the painting. In that ten minutes I medatated in full silence.
The next morning came as I awoke to the smell of Shrimp cooking the floor down below. Putting on my clothes I rushed through the house, not to get dinner but to go to the place where the man was. "Hurry up!" I shouted as mom grabbed her keys and Huo was doing everything not to go..."Come on" I moaned.
"Lei!" Mom shouted as she rushed to the door, "Hou you have to come."
The place where we went was just across the city, It helpped mom and me learn how to read. Dad was in North America where they had to build the railroad for the enlish/french. Not many people could read here, infact not many at all. My mother was learning as was i, my aunt did learn but was never around now that she got married so it was all up to me. As mom started up the car, we got in. But before we could go to the place we had to go to the post office to get the money that dad sent us.
Mother grabbed all her stuff before walking into the post office. A lady in a long silk kimo sat at the desk sorting through stuff. I pipped up and walked over, "Is there a letter from Insuami Ridenji?" I asked trying to sound brave.
She leand over her desk taking a long look at me, "Yes Lei" she replied. I stood shocked that she knew my name. "here" she replied handing me a letter.
I traded her the ten cents for the letter. Mom hovered over me, but I still couldnt read it. "I...Have...been" I tride to read but it was no use.
"We'll bring it to the classes place" Mother said walking back to the car. I followed her like a lost sheep but still clutching the letter.
We only got letters from dad every month so it wasnt alot. As the car pulled into the building that had colors of bright Oranges, Reds, Yellows and more, mother parked the car. I ran out as quick as I could, down the halls at a fast pace because we werent allowed to run. "Sensi" I said quietly as I approched the man I saw before.
This time he appeared to my mother, only a little. She stood in fright but also suprised. "Can you read?" I asked bowing because I forgot to before.
The man nodded and helped me read. Mother was delighted of the news, dad had got a higher pay, but the sad part was we wouldnt see him for six more months. Mother took the letter along with her to her class as I stayed behind.
"So, you have come to learn my son?" the man questioned.
"Yes Sensi" I replied seriously.
"Lei! Bed!" My sister shouted, I didnt notice her by me.
"Ten minutes" I replied.

chapter 3?
[SIZE="2"][font="Comic Sans MS"][B]A Few Months Later
Quietly, I focused at the blade that sat infront of me. Drops of sweat fall onto my skin as I tried to attemt the power of Telepathy. He had practesed this for so long, but never manage to be able to us it. "Calm yourself" Sensei said encurgingly, "calm your mind and you will be able to move it."
No matter how many times he did it, he always suckseded. I was getting ferious as the seconds passed by. For three months I had tried this, and for those three months, Sensei, Had said the same thing over and over.
I couldn't understand how he could make it rise so perfectly, and all mine did was sit; just plan no move. Anger had began to build up in me. "Calm, Lei" Sensei said asheringly.
My sister even managed to acheve it before me, although with another Sensei of course. She had found out what I was doing and tride. "Argh!" I shouted inraged, "why wont it move already?!"
I had finally snapped. There was no way in earth I could do that, not even with the help of the once so famouse Sensei. He looked at me, stunned. "Calm your spirits child, you have so much anger built in you. You need peace and calmness to be able to use your mind" The Sensei replied.
I never understood how he could always be so calm when I was full of rage. He had a secret, something he seemed to never tell me. "Come tomorrow, and calm yourself."
"I can try again" I muttered. My eyes were glinting red with the rage, "But tell me, if you will" he nodded for me to continue, "How do you stay so calm?"
his face still didn't move. "I will not say until you have learned" he replied bowing, "Now you must go. Get some sleep and we'll try tomorrow."
"Fine" I moaned walking over to my bag, "Good bye Sensei."
I bowed in respect, as he bowed back.[/B][/font][/SIZE]

The months passed as I tried to learn. Right now we were on Telepathy. I could never get it for some reason. "Calm you'r mind" Sensei said looking at me.
I let a wale of anger escape my mouth. "Why wont it move?" I demanded.
"You have to much anger built up in you" Sensei replied not changing his expression. I never understood how he was always so calm, I just didn't get it. Huo seemed to learn this faster then me. She discovered that I had been practising it and went to another sensei to be taught, and was far ahead of me. Maybe I wasn't the chosen one, she was. I couldn't get over it, she always was better then me. Another scream of anger came from my mouth as sweat dripped down my forehand. I focused myself, breathing in and out slowly. Looking at the sword infront of me I began muttering things in another languasge that I didn't know. In that moment something unbelieveble happened, the sword became surrounded in black mist and slowly vanished.
"What happened?" I asked.
Sensei looked at me, mystifyed. "You hold a differen't prower then what I thought child" He said, "You belong to another."
"what?" I asked, what was he talking about now? I wondered.
"You are not the drasgon I thought you were" Sensei replied bowing lower then before, "You are above them."
Confused, I stood sient and looked at him. He pulled out a golden key infront of him. "when you are ready child, you may use this key. Unike the chants you have to say, this dragon has non" Sensei said handing my it.
"what dragon?" I asked puzzeled.
He looked at me, like I just threatend him. "You shell find out once you are strong enough" He finally replied.
