Gate of Kaibyaku

A small kid with a disability makes Stewart Abrams prime fodder for bullies on the streets of west Chicago until taken under the wing of the West End Avenue Crackers gang leader, Drummer. Known as Watch Dog, being in a gang means survival if not becoming a victim of rival gangs. While undergoing initiation to become a full-fledged member, he's pluck from the ordeal by a total stranger and put aboard a private jet bound for New Zealand. Here, he and other kids from around the world are in a special school known as Kaibyaku, The Beginning. Its curriculum goes well beyond the 3-R's for an ulterior purpose. Chronically truant in Chicago, there is no other course but to accept his circumstance and adjust to the drastic change made easier by supportive friends like Philippe and Nico, and instructors who really care about their students like the disappearing science teacher, Dr. Takashi, and archery instructor Sugihara. There are bullies here, as well, one being a girl, and learning how to deal with them is one lesson. While a serene life floats on top, there is an undercurrent bent on destroying the school as he learns the secrets of the Samurai and Ninja warriors and the power of the Australian Aboriginal Kadaitcha Man. Then, comes the realization that fanciful legends are real. When the school comes under attack, Stewart uses these skills as he rides Ryjin, his dragon horse, to become the Hero of Kaibyaku.
