Rikuto's eyes widened a bit as he watched the knife get pulled back. As soon as he could, he blurted out the only thing that would reveal his stand on the resistance. "I WANT TO JOIN THE RESISTANCE!!" He yelled fabulous loudly. So loud, it could possibly be heard by people in the streets. Even a few guard patrols could've heard it. The only reason it was so loud was because of fear.

"Oh, why didn't you say so?" He stated as he got off. He sheathed the knife in a special holder on his back. He went over to the window. "Uh oh...not good." He stated as he noticed the sheer number of guards patrolling the street now. "Well, I've got to go." He stated before jumping from the window and catching the ledge of the window of an opposing building and climbing it. He was out of sight in seconds.

Rikuto stood up and dusted himself off. He didn't really have much time to react when the other kid bailed. Reaching his hand out, it was already too late to catch the kid and learn more about the resistance. A slight clanking noise came from the lower levels of the building. The guards were now coming up. Rikuto ran for the window, but was held back by a guard's hand. He had been caught. The guard issued some orders and eventually, Rikuto was thrown into a cell. A single barred window was the only source to the outside.

Suddenly, and arrow shot through the bars in the window. It struck the floor under Rikuto. It had a note attached to it. "Second brick next left of the window." Was written on it.

Rikuto jumped when the arrow hit right below him. After a few seconds of composing himself, he picked up the note and read it silently. "Second brick next left of the window...?" He looked over at the window and counted the bricks according to the note. The brick he ended on looked a lot more loose than the others. After walking over to it, he slowly pushed it in. A slight mechanical whir could be heard inside the wall. A small passage opened up before him. Rikuto didn't hesitate and went right through it. The wall closed up behind him in a matter of seconds. As Rikuto crawled his way through, he soon entered an open area in the tunnel. "Where... am I...?" His voice echoed slightly.

"So..." said a woman who was leaning against one of the many pillars in the large room. "This is the one you talked about?" "He seems fabulous weak to me. Besides, we don't know anything about this one. He could be a spy." A large man stated as he came from a pillar. He was cracking his knuckles.
"Well, if he does turn out to be a spy, I'll let you be the one to kill him." The kid from earlier stated. He was sitting on top a pillar.

Rikuto turned to see the three staring at him. Though the room was large, it still had a few beams of light to illuminate it. He squinted to try to get a better look at the three, but ended up having to talk. "Um... hello...? Are... Are you three part of the resistance...?" Yet again, his voice was soft and nervous.

"If this doesn't end well, don't come crying to me." The man stated before turning around and walking down one of the tunnels. "Don't worry about him." The woman suddenly said when the man was out of sight. "He's always been negative."

"So... So you are resistance... aren't you..." Rikuto paused for a few seconds. "Are... Are you recruiting...?" His voice was a bit shaky. The fact that he was talking about joining made him nervous. Guards would soon know him and go after him. All connections to the outside world would be torn, and his duty would fall under someone he didn't even know. Though... his personal reason would allow him to do so without any consequence.

"Yes. But the recruitment center is two villages over." The woman spoke. "Each of us recently were sent here to start stirring up trouble and prepare locations to meet. Although, if you want to join, I highly doubt that they'll take you in the condition you are in now."
"In other words: you lack confidence. You'll crack like some of the others." The kid suddenly blurted out.

Rikuto flinched at the comment from the other kid. "But... But I have something that no one else has... something... kinda special... and you guys can't say I can't join. I won't take no for an answer!" His voice sounded slightly more confident. Almost like he remembered something that kept him going.

"In the end, it's not for you to decide." The kid stated as he hopped off the pillar. "Sanada, you know what to do." He walked away.
"Right." She nodded. "Follow me, please." She spoke before turning and walking down another tunnel. It showed that she had a samurai sword on the side she kept hidden.

Rikuto hesitated before he ran up next the the woman. Even though he had just come from a jail cell, they didn't take anything mainly because he didn't have any lethal weapons on his person. A few thoughts of what the future might hold filled Rikuto's head. He quickly shook his clouded thoughts from his mind and continued on. "Um... What... where are we going...?"

"Not we. You." The woman corrected as she pushed one of the pillars that were inserted alongside one of the walls. It was a door in one of the alleys of the village. It was hidden and literally blended with the wall when it was closed. "If you're looking to join, head north through the Mirage sands to arrive at Latyan, and then head east to Konrova." Sanada stated before pushing Rikuto out of the door and closing it behind him.

"But-!" The passage closed before he could ask another question. Rikuto looked down in a bit of despair and confusion. "North through the Mirage Sands... Arrive at Latyan... East to Konrova..." Walking away, he kept on repeating the directions to himself. The sun was still up, so he decided that he would wait for night to come before travelling. Once night was close, he left the city and headed north. The desert was cool at night. Which would be good considering the next town was a good couple of miles away. Once he made it to Latyan, he found a place to sleep inside an abandoned house. The house was open and had a large chunk of it missing. All of it had burn damage, which would mean the house was originally part of a fire related accident. Rikuto didn't mind being there, he was just happy to find a place to sleep.
