the adventures of Shingen Narahasi

Shingen Narahasi and the Duck-Billed Platypus

The story goes back a long way in time when i started to note down the further adventures of Shingen Narahsi-the famed martial art expert who had been reduced to a cameo in a popular movie this year.
He called to me and said
"Gu Ji Hoko Ni Juiji asadJI"
which in a strange dialect transalates literally as
"How dare you do this to me"
actually i wasn't entirely responsible for what happened in that movie but nevertheless i apologised.
"Sui Hi Jo Ki"
i am still figuring out what that means while we continue with our story
Shingen is on a trip to the zoo, he has never been there before as his father has refused any entertainment trips during his training (although Shingen had fooled his father and had watched Rashomon 45 times at the regal JiKuy theatre with his friend Gui Gji) but had never ventured out into the zoo.
The zoo was a fabulous place complete with all gorillas and orangutans and lions and lionesses. But these did not interest Shingen he wanted something radical..something vibrant and fun to watch so he walked to wards the crocodile enclosure...like shingen the crocodile was also bored and did not move, this further irritated Shingen and he said
"JojO Moki,Moki Jo Jo"
unfortunately for the crocodile like us did not understand Shingen's strange language, it is not as though Shingen did not know English he just found it casual and cool and ultra safe when he spoke in his own language.
Shingen for those who did not know graduated from a university with a major on "Shakespeare and the English language" he even said to me that he played the role of Macbeth in one his primary school days-he didn't enjoy the character very much but developed a sensitive relationship with the girl who played Lady Macbeth.

irritated with the crocodile and all other things around him Shingen decided to do what he does best- Kick ASS, so to everyone's amazement he showcased his talent in the arts, this somehow evoked the interest of a small Duck-billed Platypus so interestingly named Bill.
