Chapter 01: Welcome to the Family

It was a beautiful day. The town was really busy as it was. Vendors showcasing their products, people walking around, and kids playing hide and seek. The Yorozuya weren't in Edo right now but they were currently in Heatherfield, one of the most famous towns in the whole world. This town was really pretty unlike Edo. Heatherfield was owned by the Heatherfilla family who was known for being really rich. And because of their job, they have manage to step into this ostentatious place after all.

"Waaaaah! Our job is done!" Kagura exhaustively stretched her arms, giving out a loud yawn, "Gin-chan! Gin-chan! Let's go to a restaurant! I'm really hungry!" She suggested to the party since their job is done and they've received their paycheck already so there is nothing to worry about. With her suggestion about eating into a restaurant was been approved by the other two.

The whole Odd Jobs decided to went over the said the restaurant. And currently, Gintoki, who was really cheeky about this huge amount of money, started to count it publicly.

Shinpachi noticed this kind of attitude so he tried to warn the pesky samurai,"Gin-san if you do that publicly it might be—" In a blink of an eye the money was gone. They were shocked that the money they worked hard for was now gone. It had been stolen by a thief and they immediately chased him.

"We need to hurry! Shinpachi! Kagura!" Gintoki beseech as they tried to ran after the thief.

"WAAAAH! The beef steak it's gone! How dare that thief! I'll catch you for sure!" Kagura cried.

"Well, it is mainly your fault Gin-san! Since, you are counting that huge amount of money in public!" Shinpachi peered.

Gintoki stopped on his track, deciding to retort, "Instead of telling me or accusing me about this one! Why don't we split up and find that robber?! I'll take this way!" Gintoki points at the right side of the alley and quickly sped up.

"Then, I'll take that way, uh-huh!" Kagura pointed onto the left part of the alley and without a second, she quickly run to that part leaving Shinpachi alone.

"Well, then there are no choices but to take this straight way." He sighed under his breathe while running up to his feet.

Under the burning heat of the sun, there were men, who were working nonstop, upon the road since these past few days there were many complaints and they've should fix it already. But usually, men are only working onto the construction sight, needlessly, there was currently a woman working with them. Her features soaked with sweat and dirt, she does not utter a single word and continued to excavate the road. Tied azure strands continuously flow under the scorching heat, the men cannot believe that there is a woman working with them.

"You're good as always! No wonder that the boss hired you, wait what's your name again?" One of the men complimented her while rubbing of his face.

"Thank you, Nishiuchi-san. My, you always forget my name..."

"Sakakibara!" The foreman called the blue young lad to his office, it seems that it is already past time to her job already.

"Coming!" She took of her hardhat, with that her striking scarlet eyes was been revealed; letting out a slight smile, she continued while facing Nishiuchi, "It is Sakakibara Satsuki...Please do not forget that..." Without hesitations, she went over the office to meet the foreman. As she open the door quietly, she inhaled deeply, "Good Afternoon, sir."

"Here is your paycheck, Sakakibara. You're really good than my other men despite being a woman..." The foremen held out her paycheck.

"Thank you, sir. Well then, I have to leave already for my other shifts." Satsuki replied.

"Working hard as always, Sakakibara?"

"Well yes, because I need to. Thank you for today as well, sir." She bow her head slowly and headed to the changing room to change her clothes. Despite being a woman, the fact that gender doesn't matter at all is one of the main reasons, she joined the construction team. As said a while ago, she is Sakakibara Satsuki; she was 23 years old to be exact. She has a azure straight hair that reaches up to her waist with her bangs to the side. Her eyes were scarlet and has white skin. Also, she was wearing a rosary attached to a black choker. She was currently working at several jobs despite being a girl. Presently, she has 5 jobs namely a waitress at a restaurant, cashier at a convenience store, a road worker, a chef in a maid cafe and a free-lance singer in a karaoke bar.

She figured that she'd be late if she didn't make it on time. So she grabbed her things and ran as fast as she could.

"Geez! Where am I?! In this crowd I won't be able to see those guys!" Gintoki rattled, now that the other two were gone out of his sight, he doesn't have the choice to give up onto the robber and find his comrade so he doesn't have a choice but to take a dark cramped alley.

"I am fucking late! Fucking late! Fucking late!" She screamed on top of her lungs while cursing down onto her tracks, and without noticing, she as well, entered the dark cramped alley.

These two were ridiculously running so fast that they even manage to see what's in front of them so they ended up knocking with each other.

Satsuki fell down butt first onto the dusty ground, she was obviously enrage since she is already late for her work. Dusting up herself, she clearly snapped, "What the fucking hell are you doing knocking with me like that? It is because of you, I am already late for my work, today is my pay day and it is drastically ruined because of your blindness! You have two fucking eyes, right? So make use of it and watch the things that are in front of you!"

A nerve cracked onto Gintoki's features as he dust his self up while arguing back, "Well, it was mainly your fault you damn flat girl! You also have two eyes, right? Why not watch the things that are in front of you? Also, a lady doesn't act like that, what are you a cross-dresser?"

She snapped. Hearing such an absurd comment from a certain person made her go crazy, she dispute back, "For your information, I am a 23 year old woman and my cup size is C so it is not flat! So ridiculous, what kind of a gentleman are you? You just made my day completely in a disaster!"

These two kept on arguing with each other when the other duo, Kagura and Shinpachi, headed to the place. Panting to reach them Shinpachi stated, "Gin-san! We can't find the robber!" Gintoki was shocked about this, they all knelt down in distress. The money they have been work at for several days weren't here anymore. Moreover, they do not have any money to go back to Edo and also right now their stomachs are grumbling.

Satsuki's distracted to this one, now that she is ALREADY late for her work, and stumbling with these troublesome people is a pain in the ass. Sighing deeply, she started to talk, "Stop grumbling already, geez!"

"Eh?" The trio was startled by her sudden talking.

"Enough with your dramatic act. Fine, I'll treat you guys food. But in exchange do me a favor. Just follow me." Satsuki with that stern look walked straightly towards the restaurant. Of course, the Yorozuya is completely happy about the sudden enunciation to this and followed her as well. For a few moments, they were in the restaurant, the Yorozuya was happy and sat in a table comfortably. As for Satsuki, she headed quickly onto the changing room and as well apologize for being late.

"That girl was kind, Gin-san. She'll be treating us in this restaurant." Shinpachi said as he grabbed the menu from the table.

"That's right Gin-chan! So just marry her and we'll be treated like this forever!" Kagura commented with her potty mouth of hers.

Gintoki was irritated by this, so he smacked Kagura. Ignoring about the fact that thing Kagura stated a while ago, they all grab the menu right beside her, thinking about their orders.

When they're done, Kagura did not hesitated and rang the bell beside her, well, she was really excited and at the same time clueless about this since it was her first time. She called out the waitress in an english manner, "Waiteress! Waiteress!" Though, she is completely wrong in pronouncing one.

"So, decided on anything?" They were surprised at seeing Satsuki wearing a waitress outfit. Her hair was tied into a twin tail, like her aura is really different than a while ago. She just transformed it a moe character possibly, "Oh wait, before treating you, may I ask your names?"

Kagura smiled and introduced herself, "I'm Kagura!"

Shinpachi continued, "I'm Shimura Shinpachi, thank you for treating us."

Satsuki smiled but changed into a stern when she started to gaze onto Gintoki, "Then what's your name, stupid?"

A nerve popped out of Gintoki and told her, "Son Gok—" Before he finished his sentence she smashed his head in the table. She smiled sadistically and ask him one more time. He replied honestly, "Sakata Gintoki…"

She introduced herself to them, "I'm Sakakibara Satsuki, nice to meet you."

After the introduction, they told her their others and she listed it on a blank notebook. "Well then, wait for a moment while a call of your orders."

After a few minutes their orders were brought to them by Satsuki. They ordered lots of food at all, not having some sort of delicacy. While chomping the foods to their mouths, Shinpachi asked something, "Sakakibara-san, are we some kind of troublesome? Because we ordered something really expensive, is it alright? Because you might have some shortage in money or something..."

"No, you're not, at all. Only Son Goku was way too troublesome that my boss just scolded me a while ago for being late." She retorted while explaining these things to them.

Satsuki some sort of curious about something and went back and ask them, "Well, what do you do for living?"

Shinpachi replied while the other kept on stuffing out their mouths, "We're the Yorozuya, we do anything the customers want for money."

She crossed her arms and ask another question, "I see. So what happened? You said that you cannot find the robber..."

"Ummm. Well, Gin-san was very proud about the money so he decided to count the money publicly. But the money was been stolen because of that."

Satsuki sneered at him while giving him a ascetic gaze, "So it was Son Goku's fault after all, you shouldn't be proud when you' have a large amount of money you have. Also, be thankful that I treat you to this though these are expensive."

Gintoki was pissed about the sudden lecture and replied, "Thank you for the food, Ms. Flat chest-"

But he was stopped when he found his face been slammed onto the table leaving a crater on it, "How many times do I have to tell you that I am a C Cup!"

Shinpachi reacted, "What kind of woman telling the whole world her cup size!?"

Kagura peered, "Satsuki-chan! This town is a dangerous town so how do you defend yourself?"

"Well, I can use swords or some sort of that. But if someone attempted to do something to me." She paused for a moment and cracked her knuckles, "i won't hesitate to break their bones and tear them up." She continued while giving out a black sadistic aura.

Shinpachi gave out a cracked smile, seeing Satsuki give out a sadistic smile as well as aura made him send chills to his spine.

Gintoki butted in the conversation by asking something, "So what is this thing that we'll do for you?"

"I'll tell you if I'm in pinch. So enough of this talk, I need to work also." She bade goodbye to them and went to the other table.

After a few minutes, a crash was heard in the restaurant. One of the waitress apologized and picked up the broken plate. The manager headed to the poor girl and started to rant about some sort of things resulting her to be humiliated in the whole place. He kept on hurting the poor waitress. As they can see, the girl already was been brawling out herself there. The whole restaurant felt silent onto this situation. No one even dare to barge any step at all. This continued, when the manager was about to pounce her again when Satsuki held his wrist.

"Manager, would you stop humiliating her here and even abusing her. Even though she made a mistake, she doesn't even deserve this kind of treatment." Satsuki softly snarled at him while tightening her grip to his wrist, but then the manager jolted and was about to punch her back when she caught it on time and this time she broke his arm; the loud crack was heard all over the restaurant.

"You know, boss. I'll say this once at first I am glad to be able to work here but..." She paused while stealing a stern look to him with her scarlet eyes, "Doing this to my best friend is out of rage. So, I just want to say that..." She pull out his arm and ultimately slammed him on the floor, "Fuck you until you die!"

She clasped her hands together just like wiping some dirt; quickly releasing her two twin tails from being tied, leaving the two ribbons behind, she cracked her knuckles,

"Gin-san! Let's help Sakakibara-san!" But instead Gintoki held his wrist and told him to not interrupt.

After that she was brought down across the Yorozuya's table. The Manager went up and abused the waitress. It was beginning to piss her off. She grabbed Gintoki's wooden sword and started to fight him. Until he was cornered by her, he was frightened by her sadistic face.

"If you kept on doing this to the others, I swear even if I'm in hell I'll hunt you."

The Yorozuya was completely surprised by this incident. But then Gintoki just gave her a satisfying smirk at all as for Shinpachi, he was completely worried into this situation at all, this place is utterly mess.

He nodded with his teary eyes and snot on his nose. He then announced, "Sakakibara Satsuki, you're fired!"

Everyone was surprised about this because she was the number one waitress here. Satsuki brushed up her hair and replied, "Do you think I care?" Heading to the Yorozuya's table, she gave a certain brown envelope to the perm head, "Here's the money." With those words, she left the restaurant.

After a few seconds, Gintoki realized something. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Because of that scream some of the customers were puzzled and they gazed at them awkwardly. Shinpachi warned him that they were in a public restaurant; he also told him to not do idiotic things.

"Patsuan! I forgot that if she leaves, she won't be able to lend us money to go home!" Gintoki stood up and dragged Kagura and Shinpachi out. Kagura struggled to this because there was still food on their table.

"Thank you, Satsuki-chan..." Mikku, the one being abused a while ago, thanked the blue haired girl.

Satsuki let out a light smile, giving her a light pat in the head, "It's okay, Mikku. When you need help or someone did something again to you, call me. I'll break their bones."

Mikku cracked a smile to the older lady, "Geez, Satsuki-chan. I already quit that job! Also, I'll be careful next time so do not worry!"

Satsuki carried out her things completely bade Mikku her farewell. Walking all around the outskirts of Heatherfilla, she sighed exhaustingly, "I just lose 1 job already... Moreover, Son Goku and friends' food were beyond my pocket. Now I do not have any money to pay rent! How can I live now?!"

Peacefully kicking the can from the alley, she passed by a pole were a poster was placed; looking to it made her had an idea again...

"Festival of Flowers… Also a job hiring?! I better go here! It's 8:00 pm... Job interview in a cruise? Will I survive with that? Well, it's a job after all, so I guess I'll go with it. But first I should go to my other job."

"Oi! Patsuan! Did you find her?!" Gin asked the boy while panting but he shook his head.

"Gin-chan! How about we ask the other people?" Kagura suggested and all of them agreed. When they asked other people, surprisingly, people started to avoid them like they're avoiding Satsuki's prescience. Somehow, the trio were curious about this.

It was already evening and the Yorozuya hadn't seen her, not even a strand of hair. They rested at the arm of a bridge and there, Kagura saw a big cruise about to take off. She pointed at it and the two men noticed it. Two girls behind their backs were talking about that cruise; they said that it'd go to Edo. That made Gintoki come up with an evil idea and he started to gather his troops.

Meanwhile at Satsuki's place, she stood up upon the deck and saw several people wearing formal clothes. Long gowns, suits, neckties, etc. But look at her, she wore a long sleeved white shirt with a necktie. To sum it up with long dark pants, she was clueless about the formal thing since she didn't even wear a gown or anything suited for cute girls. Many people glanced at her because she was the only one who wore that kind of clothing. But she didn't care and went inside the job interview. After a few minutes, the interview was done and she was already bored. Her stomach started to grumble loudly since she haven't eaten a speck of food. Sighing, she saw a table filled with food and started to grab something.

"Satsuki-chan!"

Surprisingly, she saw the yorozuya,"K-Kagura?! Shimura?! And who are you again?"

A nerve cracked onto his features, "It's Gintoki, you stupid flat board!"

Satsuki rolled her eyes and asked them, "I am a C cup, what are you doing here?"

Gintoki answered, "Same to you. What are you doing here?"

"Answer me first!"

"No, answer me Roberto De Flato."

"I told you I'm a C Cup girl! And answer mine first!"

They both argue again as Shinpachi cracked a smile. But this lounge was very beautiful, there were nice dresses and suits everywhere. As for the four of them, they looked like some paupers here. Kagura was eating food and the two were still arguing on who'd answer first.

Shinpachi was irritated by this, so he shouted at the duo, "Would you stop it you two!? People are looking at us already!" But people continued staring at them; Shinpachi felt embarrassed. But as for the trio except, they couldn't care less.

Satsuki scratched her head and then crossed her arms. She sighed, "Fine. I went to this ship for a job. So mind telling me what's your reason?"

Gintoki dug his nose using his pinkie and answered, "We heard that this ship is heading to our town so we decided to hijack this place."

Satsuki's eyebrows twitched but decided to stop continuing since she is hungry and angry. As they were having there dinner, a group of men wearing black outfit shouted, "HANDS UP! We completely hijack this plane. So follow us and give me your money so that we won't hurt you." The guests of the plane were terrified and gathered up in a corner. But the trio, except Shinpachi, were eating like there was no end.

"Oi. You four!" The group of men aimed their guns at them.

Shinpachi was frightened about this, tugging Gintoki's sleeve. "G-G-Gin-san! The gun is aimed at us!"

"Shut it! Patsuan, I'm eating here!"

"That's right, glasses, we're eating here!"

A nerve cracked from his head and he shouted at them, "Don't you know we're currently aimed by a gun! STOP EATING ALREADY! And also stop calling me glasses, it hurts my feelings."

The men walked towards them and aimed a pistol in Gintoki's head. Shinpachi on the other hand shivered from fear, "Don't you hear us kids?! We'll be blowing up your head if you don't follow our—" The men screamed in pain as Satsuki kicked him in the balls. His comrades were shocked about this, so they aimed their guns at the group.

"Jeez, if you're here with me always, only tragedies come." Satsuki scratched her head again, cracking out her knuckles.

Shinpachi shouted at the top of his lungs, "Sakakibara-san! You just hit one of them! What should we do?!"

"Shut it, Glasses! That's the problem! You're always placed 8 because you're a sissy!" Kagura positioned her parasol and went close to Satsuki.

"Don't call me a sissy!" Shinpachi yelled, "Hey! Wait a minute! Seriously, you're going to fight them?!"

Satsuki glance onto the table; seeing a silver fork their, she grab it immediately,"Shimura, nothing will happen if you completely stared at them dumbfounded."

Gintoki with his dead fish eyes, commented to what Satsuki is holding, "What the heck, why are you using a fork to fight? Are you an idiot?"

Satsuki snapped from his insults, she completely held out a dark massive aura and replied angrily, "Oh, I see. Well then, shall we test, whoever brought down many goons, will be the winner!"

Gintoki completely held out his wooden katana, "Fine by me, bastard! Then, Let's get started!" Gin signaled and they went up beating up the men. Shinpachi tried to fight but it was no use, because he didn't have a weapon. Kagura defended him by knocking him out.

But one of the men fired the gun all over the cruise, "Stop! We completely hijacked this cruise."

She heard a massive boom coming from the plane. Kagura blew up the control device and that made the other guests alarmed. They immediately panicked. The cruise was on fire. Obviously, it was about to sink but it can be save somehow until kagura fired more bullets all around the cruise making it explode.

"Kagura-chan! What did you do?! Why did you fire on the controlling device!? Seriously, we're going to die! This ship will sink in any moment! " Shinpachi screamed but Kagura was just clueless about it.

"What the hell we were going to sink?!" Satsuki also screamed about this and panicked. Kagura, being a clueless girl, shot the plane more and that made the plane's fire become bigger. Gintoki smacked Kagura for shooting the plane and now they didn't have any gear for them to use. The hijackers were also terrified about this, so they dashed out. Few of the guests had already evacuated and as for the four, they were still panicking. The cruise's verdana was removed by the impact and Satsuki was scared about this.

Because of the confusion, Satsuki couldn't stay calm. Tugging out Gintoki's perm hair was only her choice after all.

"It hurts!" Gintoki yelped in pain and wrestled with her. And of course, because of their rowdiness Satsuki was blown out of the cruise and fell.

Shocked.

Scared.

Did not know what to do at all.

She was completely immobilize, she was already scared...

"Help me..."

Before she knew it, Gintoki held her wrist.

"O-Oi. What are you thinking? F-Falling like that?" Gintoki mumbled.

Satsuki felt shocked, and without thinking, she glanced below. Seeing the raging waves down them, she sort of panicked and completely loose her mind.

'It's high! IT'S FREAKING HIGH! HIGH! HIGH!' She thought.

"Oi. Freaking stupid! Idiot! Pull me up!" She ordered Gintoki.

Gintoki grinned and taunted her a little bit, "How about a no?"

Satsuki struggled and shouted, "Idiot! I have fear of heights! If you don't want to be pulled down hurry up and pull me up!"

Gintoki found a hard time since she was struggling because of fear. But Satsuki continued to struggle and it made them both fall.

"GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" She screamed at the top of her breath. It was so loud, that it could make your eardrums burst. Both of them screamed; she was already teary-eyed and scared. Satsuki wrapped her arms around Gintoki...

Noticing this, he quarreled again, "Stop wrapping your freaking arms around me!" Satsuki was pissed and at the same time, terrified. She punched him so hard in the face. Gintoki yelped in pain and argued back. Until the end, they were arguing with each other and they fell onto the see.

"Tch. This stupid girl always give me a bad luck! Oi. Wake up Roberto!" He shook the unconscious girl but failed. Noticing this, he didn't have any choice but to carry her to the shore.

"Is it dark? Or is it me that is-" She was stopped by Gintoki's punch in her head. Holding her head while screaming in pain, she shot back, "What is it?!"

"Is that how you thank me?" Gintoki asked as he dug his nose further.

Satsuki rejuvenated by the sudden expression. She wondered about this sort of things but well, her top priority is to thank the pitiful guy in front of him. Chuckling made Gintoki turn his attention to her, "What the heck is funny? You are wet, why don't you be bothered by it?"

"Thank you, Gintoki!" She smiled onto him. After saying those words, she realized that Kagura and Shinpachi were missing. She smacked him as hard as she could.

Gintoki yelped in pain, and argued back, "Oi. Why did you do that?!"

"Where's Kagura and Shimu-" She was interrupted by the vermillion haired girl.

"We're here Satsuki-chan!" Kagura jumped towards Satsuki and hugged her.

Satsuki hugged her back. Utterly confused on how they'd escaped, she asked Shinpachi, "Ummm. Shimura, how did you escape?"

"We found a life vest and a boat onto the cruise." Shinpachi replied.

Satsuki was bothered by something and asked, "Why didn't you escape with Son Goku?"

"Stop calling me that!"

"Well, when we found the life vest, we saw Gin-san running to the airplane's door. We told him that we should escape already but he said we should escape first. He'd just escape later." Shinpachi explained.

Satsuki smiled upon hearing this. Kagura, who continued to hug her, asked something, "But why are you wet? Ahhh. Gin-chan is also wet!"

"W-Well.. He saved me but ended up in this sea…" She confessed. After hearing these Kagura grinned and went next to Gintoki. She whispered something to him and he smacked her again. After that, Gintoki decided that they'd go home already. He dragged Kagura and Shinpachi with him.

"Gin-chan... I want to be with Satsuki-chan more!"

"Gin-san, bid a farewell first before leaving her."

"I don't care about Roberto..."

Satsuki smiled on them, but at the same time, she felt sad. She glanced upon her palm and decided something. She was in deep thoughts when she remembered something, "Crap! Today's rent!"

…

"Okay. We're already in the station… So Kagura, don't be sad about her." Gintoki announced.

"Gin-san… How can we get into the train if we didn't even have any money?" Shinpachi questioned the perm-headed guy. He let out an evil smile and said that they'd be doing "THAT" again. That made Shinpachi uneased. But suddenly, someone called their names. Kagura was enlightened by it; Shinpachi was glad that they wouldn't be able to do "THAT" again, and Gintoki was digging his nose.

Satsuki ran towards them with her luggage. Kagura hugged her again, while Satsuki hugged back.

"Okay. So here's my favor for you, Mr. Odd Jobs!" Satsuki smiled at him and added, "Let me join the Odd Jobs!"

The trio was surprised by this. Kagura was happy and agreed, Shinpachi smiled and replied a 'sure', but Gintoki dug harder, which caused his nose to bleed.

He refused. Kagura was pissed, so she beat him up.

"This is my favor to you, Sakata. Well, I decided to join because I'm kicked in my rented house. I was currently fired and I decided to resign to my other jobs. So that's my explanation, I'll be working for you now, please take care of me." She cheerfully stated but as for Gintoki he really refused. But Kagura beat him again and Shinpachi tried to explain the situation to him because he pitied her.

Gintoki stood up and cracked his back. "Fine. Fine. Just don't break my bones again. But Roberto, we don't have any money to ride this tra—"

She smiled and answered, "I already paid for four of us. Also don't call me Roberto. I'll slice you and break you." She clearly emphasized her last statements and continued,"I have a name and that is Sakakibara Satsuki."

Gintoki scratched his hair and answered, "Fine. Fine. Okay everyone.. Let's do this…"

One…

Two…

Three…

"WELCOME TO THE YOROZUYA, SATSUKI."

I sort of changed something here so everyone who'll be reading the rest of the chapter might noticed something odd before I clean up my mess for the next few chapters. Anyway, thank you for reading my fanfiction. And continue to support it until the end, I love you. (I sort of need a beta-reader)
