Kijah was traveling a long ways just to find the place where he belonged. As he traveled he really didn't care where he went. He met some people, saw new sites, even had a chance to train on new material to test different objects. While he was traveling he ended up in the desert known as Ta'Ra. The heat didn't really faze him just made him sweaty, which didn't bother him too. Kijah was look at some rocks on the ground just out of curiosity, when all of a sudden when he picked up a rock from the ground he noticed the soil was damp. Thinking Kijah decided that water must be by. After searching he found the Oasis. Kijah was so happy he jumped in it without thinking. As he put his foot on the bottom of the floor hes feet got tangled in some vines. Kijah kept struggling and started to pass out. As he looked up in the water he saw a shadow forming at the surface. Something just dived in. It was in the shape of a person. Kijah closed his eyes, he no longer could keep his strength. The shadow like thing brought him up to the surface and on shore. Kijah still not awake, soon started throwing up water. He was revived. He look around to see the person that saved his life.

"Get up already! There's no way you could be dead after something so petty like that! Come on!" Seta lightly kicked the young man in the side several times before he started yelling again. "Come on, don't tell me you just wanna die! Not after i went through the trouble of saving you! What will you accomplish by dying? Nothing! There is no meaning in dying! So just wake up already!" Seta was about to kick him again but stopped mid swing as he noticed the man's eyes begin to open.

"Oh, so you're finally awake! About time!"

Seta walked forward as the man started coughing up water, reaching out with his arm as an offer to help him up.

"The name's Setamune by the way, but just call me Seta."

Kijah rubbed his throat and look up. As he looked up he noticed a hand reached out toward him. Kijah thought about then decided to accept the hand. Reaching out he grabbed the hand and pulled himself up. Looking at his soaked cloths he shrugged and just thought the sun would dry it no biggy. Kijah looked at the man, noticing that he isn't much older than him. " Thank you."Kijah said as he looked at his foot to see if there was a mark where he was stuck. "Im Kijah Unizake. The Jester. But i don't perform. I'm more like a poser."Kijah said as he laughed." I like the look."

"Hahahaha Jester, funny funny! Entertaining in every way... But dressing for the look? I'm beginning to wonder about your tastes, Kijah. Not very smart, especially in the dessert, You could easily pass out from the heat..." Seta paused for a moment to look back at the oasis, a small but very noticeable grin on grin on his face when he turned his head back around. "Or drowning you could drown by not thinking clearly."

Seta leaned over to pick up a book he had put down before diving into the water to save Kijah.

"I was on the edge of a decision to save you or not. You're lucky I'm the kind of guy I am! Hahahaha."

"Oh yeah... Before I forget," Seta outstretched his hand, palm up. "That'll cost you thirty big ones!"

Kijah looked at his hand. Then looked up at Seta. "Mhmm. Guess which hand."Kijah said as he put his hands behind his back.Kijah waited a second. "Nah im just playing, here." He pulled his hand out in front of him and 30 dollars was there. Kijah placed it in the man's hand and turned around." Well im going to be taking off." Kijah picked up his cane/ rod thing and instantly it turned into an umbrella. "Remember i am a jester." Kijah said as he started to walk off laughing. The reason behind the laugh was when he had his hand behind his back he made his orbs transform from rings into the money. Thus explaining how he turned his cane into an umbrella. Kijah turned the money into dust and made his orb return to rings on his finger. Right under Seta's nose.

Seta smiled and waved as Kijah left, a wide grin on his face for the money he had just earned, That is until he felt the disappearance of the money in his hand, in which his grin did not fade, but merely widened to an awkward smile as his eye twitched in annoyance.

"Why... you..."

Quick to react, Seta grabbed his sword, which had previously been dug into the ground on a diagonal slant, and ran at full speed towards Kijah.

"You cheap bastard! What the hell is wrong with you!?! I just saved you! You could at least pay up!"

Once Seta had caught up to Kijah, he took the Yusaika and dug it deep into the sand, on a tilt. "Base arte, Beast!" In a quick move Seta pulled up his sword, as well as large amount of sand headed in the direction of Kijah.

Kijah quickly turned around i put the umbrella in front of him to repel the sand. "Sorry my friend i have no money. Just didn't want to tell you because i was afraid...well...that this would happen." Kijah said as he held the umbrella. "If you would like...you could umm...travel with me to the next town. And there i can buy you anything you like." Kijah asked hoping it would help him get out of this situation.

Seta looked at the young man he now knew as Kijah, keeping a straight an unwavering face as Kijah spoke. He spoke of such stupid things like not having any money, and offering to travel with him until they reached the next city where Kijah would buy him something, but how could a man with no money buy anything?

"Kijah, are you planning to pay by ripping people with that trick of yours?"

Seta slowly walked forward as he spoke, stopping just under an arm's length away from Kijah. "You moron." Seta lifted his hand, only to bring it down to smack Kijah across the face.

"I hate cowards, liars, and thieves. Stand up and be honest, it's the very least you can do for yourself. After all..."

Kijah looked at the man. Basically ripping people off was what he did. He never had money,he grew up with nothing, and he never did it for a bad cause because he would buy little things so that when the money disappeared it was nothing big. Kijah wasn't really shocked by the slap, just saw it coming or worse. "To be 'honest'. I have no money. I am a nomad. I travel. No Job or anything." Kijah said as he rubbed his cheek."that hurt."

"No." Seta spoke with a calm, uncaring voice, without a single hint of any emotion. "What you are, is lazy. You have no will to work, and trick people without a care of what their needs are. Would you steal from a merchant, who is selling his provisions only to feed his family? Would you steal from a starving orphan? Your actions cause others to suffer. And from that suffering, they too will learn to steal, and by doings so, cause more suffering."

Seta gripped the handle of the Yusaika in his right hand, slinging the giant blade over his shoulder.

"I sell my services as a mercenary, as that is my meaning of birth. In doing so, I earn my money fairly, by protecting those who cannot do so themselves, and ridding the world of those who have caused great pain to others... Kijah, do your sins outweigh your acts of charity? Are you merely a wasted soul?"
