[See Jack. See Jack's shiny new sword. See Jack shirtless and training with this new blade (it is not his father's after all so he must become acquainted with it!).

Feel free to bother Jack :D]

[thepuppyhero]

[Jack's not the only one out for a little sword practice.

These Vertiline weapons are going to take some time to get use to. He was lucky enough to find one so similar to the buster sword, but it wasn't the same. It's weight and design were different. He needs to adjust. Thus practice. Tough it looks like someone beat him to it.

Hey Jack, you've got an audience.]

[theycalledme]

[Jack gets that feeling. His eyes narrow and he looks up, hand gripping the hilt of his sword tightly. If you're not a threat, Zack, you better make it known fast.]

[thepuppyhero]

[He sees that and puts up his hands in the universal "I'm harmless" gesture. It's sightly dampened by his eyes and the large sword resting by his side.]

Whoa now. Calm down. I didn't do anything.

[Dude looks wutaian as does his sword...huh. He gives the swordsman a questioning look.]

You from Wutai?

[theycalledme]

[Jack seems a little more at ease, even if he's regarding Zack warily. Also, what's a Wutai?]

No. I am from [Insert Jack's Kingdom here.].

[thepuppyhero]

[An resisting island nation who's ass he helped kick in the name of a power hungry company bent on world domination.

In retrospect it's probably a good thing he's not from Wutai.]

Another world then.

[theycalledme]

[Don't tell him that. Jack probably wouldn't like hearing it.]

So it would seem. I had thought Aku's evil had spread very far. It would seem there are many untouched by him.

[He's grateful.]

[thepuppyhero]

[He's not here to make enemies. That's in the past. He's done mindlessly following orders.]

Aku?

[theycalledme]

[Good for you, Zack.]

A terrible demon. He has flung me far into the future and I quest to return to the past so that I may defeat him. But I was brought here before I could accomplish this.

[thepuppyhero]

[And he thought he had problems.]

Seriously? That's insane.

[Inter-world kidnappings, resurrections, and time travel. What's next?]

[theycalledme]

It must be done. I must undo everything Aku has done.

[Jack looks mighty determined, doesn't he?]

[thepuppyhero]

[That he does. Determination like that doesn't come out of nowhere.]

What'd he do?

[There's no question as to whether he did something or not.]

[theycalledme]

[Jack's eyes narrow.]

Attacked my home. Enslaved my father. He flung me into the future before I was able to stop him. His evil had spread, far beyond my homeland. Far beyond the earth.

He oppresses the people of the future. I must undo it. That is why I must return to the past.

[thepuppyhero]

[That would explain the look stamped behind those eyes.

Getting revenge on the one who destroyed everything he can understand but...]

Don't let it consume you.

[theycalledme]

[Oh, Jack knows.]

It does not.

[This is not about revenge. This is about stopping the greatest evil to exist in his world.]

[thepuppyhero]

Good.

[He seen some prime examples of what obsession can do to people.

Gah! Too much gloom and doom. He's voice takes on a lighter note.]

I was watching. You're pretty good with that sword.

[theycalledme]

[And just like that, the somber expression is gone and Jack is smiling.]

I thank you.
