"Huff. Huff. Nngh. Hn. Hyuu," Tetsunosuke Ichimura panted. "Tatsu-nii,
Hijikata-san, I'm done work! Can I go out to the festival now with Saya?" he
pleaded unheard. "Humph. They both said I could. Well, whatever. I'm going
anyway," Tetsunosuke said irritatingly.
Okita Souji, commander of the 1st unit in the Shinsengumi appeared
from the corner out of only God knows where, all bubbly (like usual) humming a
made up tune glancing at Tetsu on his way out whom looked tired and angry,
childishly whined, "Hmm, Tetsu, going out?"
Tetsunosuke spotted the cute-looking version of Souji as he muttered,
"Yeah, on my way to meet Saya to go to the festival. What 'bout you, going
to?"
"Umm, well," Souji bluntly began bluntly, "Just getting ready to battle
the people who are avenging Yoshida-san. Susumu already searched throughout
Kyoto, and found out where they were and part of their plot. So the
Shinsengumi and I are going out there and we're going to...hmm...how should I
put this...well, swipe their entire host by: cutting their lungs in half, slicing
their necks, creating a total blood shed hotel making the guys scared out of
literally, their guts once we cut through them!" Souji ended with a merry
sound.
"Eheh," Tetsunosuke said timidly, with a crocked smile.
"Wanna come and watch?" Souji offered perky.
Shocked, Tetsunosuke hastily declared, "No! N-no thank you, Okita-
san!"
"Ah, oh well. You did a good job last time though. Well, see ya!" Souji
jubilantly said as he walked silently to his room.
"O-okita-san...how can you be happy when you say things about killing
people," he asked half to himself sorrowfully with a depressed expression.
Then finally, he rembered about Saya. "Gah! Saya's gonna be disappointed and
think I intentionally left her!" he screamed as he quickly ran out of the
courtyard heading to what he thought was where Saya was. Not knowing what
lays in that place - the Shimabara, where many men come and go and ... stay for
a long, long time, haunting the Geisha women and girls there.
