This is the story of a time long ago, a story of myth and legend...(Hercules music plays) *ejects and pops in another video as he then walks out the door* *the movie plays and jumps to him sitting in a chair, a large hardback book lies upon his lap, he then opens the book and glances over the book some, then tosses it to the side and looks back to the camera*
Oops, wrong intro...*pushes stop on the VCR and the music ends, ejects tape*I wondered what happened to that tape...great series anyway...*puts in the right tape, presses play*This is the story of a time long ago, a story of myth and legend...(The Sync music plays)The Sync now proudly presents to you, The Story of the creation of Yoshin Ryu Jujitsu, as told by me, the owner of The Sync!
There was this one Chinese man who had been a studier of Chinese medical sciences, and had also gone and practiced some of the different styles he saw in some of the dojo's of China, and so he opened up his own martial arts school in Japan, I think it might have been Okinawa, but I am not certain*he pauses for a moment and looks down, then looks back to the camera*
Well he had this school going on and all, and eventually his school couldn't hold on to his students for very long, since his moves in this school were a little crude and there wasn't many of them. The students quickly left *the camera closes in on him, into a close up*
Then, it is said that while he was in some temple during the winter he couldn't help but to look outside and watch the snow falling on the trees. It is said that he noticed a great, giant, strong oak tree, as its branches quickly filled up with snow, packing on and on until the mighty oak would then crack and split, losing all its branches to the weight of the packed snow. He then looked off and noticed a small, skranny, willow shrub. He witnessed how the snow fell and clung to the willows branchs, and then as the snow began to pack heavily, he noticed how the willow just gently swayed and knocked off the snow from its branchs, as the willow then survived the snow storm, while the mighty strong oak split warped, and would eventually die.
He then got the idea of using the term of ju, which means to be gentle, or in other words when something touches it, it would bend to it and then let it roll off of it. He named his art now Yoshin Ryu Jujitsu, which basically means willow heart (style,art)school.*camera slowly unfocuses from him, drawing back from close up*
Now using the term of ju, he was able to make many more moves and keep a school full of students, always eager to learn more of what Yoshin Ryu Jujitsu had to offer.

*tape stops, and the VCR begins to spark, a small explosion begins occurs and is later followed by smoke* *smoke fills the room and soon sets off the sprinkler systems, which then soaks the room, VCR is hit by water, and then sorts out spitting out the tape from its black film, now dangling from the VCR's tape entry door, the sort quickly sorts out the power systems, the lights flicker twice, and then everything dims out*
