Hi guys! I was watching Samurai Champloo the other day, and as I watched Jin leave for Shino in "Gamblers and Gallantry," I was inspired to write this. And then I thought, Hey, why not start a series of one-shots? So here is the first of many to come! If you don't quite follow what's going on, I'll put a summary at the end. Let me know what you think! This is my first one-shot, so I'd like feedback, good or bad.
"Jerk!"
Slam!
"What are you lookin' at?"
Sob.
Eye roll.
"C'mere."
Light foot falls.
Graceful wave of pink.
Dirty twitch of red.
"Whatsa matter?"
Sniff.
"He just," sniff, "left."
Sigh.
"I thought he cared about us."
Scoff.
"Keep dreamin', girly."
Pause.
"Do you care, Mugen?"
Longer pause.
Sigh.
Sniff.
"If I say I do, will ya let me sleep?"
Smile.
"Night Mugen."
"Night, Fuu."
Silence.
"Ya know, we have to go help him."
"Yeah, I know."
Okay, so basically, this starts when Fuu calls Jin a jerk as he leaves for Shino. She comes in, slams the door, asks Mugen what he's looking at, then breaks down and cries. He takes pity, and calls her over to sit with him. He asks her why she's crying, she answers. Mugen is asked if he cares, and he thinks about it a while before answering sarcastically. They then try to go to sleep, but after a few minutes, Fuu brings up that Jin needs their help, and Mugen agrees.
I hope that wasn't TOO hard to follow :] Hope you enjoyed!
