The man like a mountain

Dripping sweat Orion and Yoru breathe heavy after thirty-five hours of none-stop cleaning.Orion throws his broom to the ground."What the hell old man I didn't come here to be your maid when will we start training." The old man walks over to Orion and picks up the broom and swings it at swiftly Orion blocks it with his forearm and snaps it in half."The fact that you blocked it is proof enough I will not be training you." Orion grits his teeth."The why have I been Janitor this whole time you old shit why did I clean this place spotless?"The man took a look around looking at the glistening wooden floor with a stain polish so clean you could see yourself in the reflection as if looking in a mirror and glimpses to the weapons on the wall that look as if they were just Crafted and various flags on the wall renewed as if hand-stitched."Humm..pretty good work but I will not train you."Orion clinch's his fist perching his lips to speak when a man the size of a bear walks through the door bag in hand. The old man doesn't bother to turn around."Master Ong you've arrived on time as always."The hulk of man looks around the room not caring to make eye contact with Orion or Yoru still scrubbing away at the floor. "I like what you've done with the place."he says in a deep baritone voice.The old man points in Orion and Yoru' direction."You have these two boys to thank for that." Ong walks over to Orion looking down on him studying him with a gaze.Orion tenses up a bit feeling like a toothpick in front of this mountain of a person."Orion." The old man says pulling out his pipe."This is is Master Ong he will be your trainer as for the cleaning well you will be living here for a while you do want a clean room don't you?"Orion breaks his concentration deadlock with Ong."You gotta be kidding me old man you expect us to stay here!?"Ong swing's his massive fist connecting with Orin's two forearms sending him sliding to the wall."You managed to book my attack at the last minute and more impressively shifted your weight so you would slide instead of getting sent flying into the air." Orion smirks boastfully." Who do you think you are? No ."who the hell the do think I am some street punk I'm Orion Magness and give just as good as I get!!" He kicks off the wall a lunges at Ong in midair." Stop now!!!"The Old man yells.Ong immediately lowers his guard.Orion does not stop he's attack landing a solid blow to Ong's cheek causing his head to turn slightly then flips back ward to avoid any possible counter attack.Ong looks back to Orion with a look so full of blood lust that it was if the air around him vanished.Orion reaching out as if trying to grab the air itself falling on one knee. Ong looks away after seeing this."You will listen when spoken to when address by any master of this dojo I don't care about any formalities just call me Ong and I will see to your training but you will address him as Master Udon!" "Yes yes now that we are done with that we have other matters to attend to."Udon points up all physical combat training will be held on the second floor."Orion clears his throat ."Old..I mean Master Udon when will we begin training?"Udon looks confused for a moment."hehe but you already have." Huh???"Udon emptying his pipe after take one last puff. Take a look at the floor you're standing on wood yes but not just any wood it's special it comes from a tree you will soon get to know very well it although it is dead the wood slowly drains energy from you the floor up stairs does the same but at an alarming rate."Orion touching the floor with his hand. Closing his eyes" I feel it now that's why I felt a little heavier than usual."Yes hehe but look over there."nodding in Yoru's vicinity.Yoru still scrubbing the floor hands bruised from scrubbing for so long sweat dripping down his face almost faster than he can clean it up."Yoru come here." Yoru swiftly strides over."Yes Master Udon I was just finishing up." Udon smiling. "You have impressed me young man your able to concentrate on your work while taking in in everything around you hummm I will be training you myself your training starts tomorrow." He turns an Begins to walk away.Orion looks around the room."Master Udon are we sleeping on the floor?" Udon stopping in the door way to his room before closing it."Look on the floor behind you."The two turn around to find two bags with a note. Orion grabs the note."So what does it say Orion?" Who just looks a the letter flustered."How about you read it yourself." passing it over to Yoru.The letter reads. "The matt contained in this bag cis made with a special fabric that will slow the effects of the wood from draining you while you sleep take care to use it we wouldn't want you to die in your sleep." "PS notice anything missing?"The two look around an notice how empty the room was.Yoru dropping the letter with disbelief." Hey Orion when did Master Ong leave?"
