Kai: (grin) Yay for new anime obsession!

Yami Bakura: (sighs) And this is why she shouldn't be allowed to watch anime for more then 12 hours.

Satoshi: (looks up from reading a book) Agreed Yami Bakura.

Kai: (falls over anime style) It's isn't even about you so shut your traps!

Okita: (smiles and eats candy) Then who are you going to write about Kai-chan?

Kai: (grins and huggles Okita) Why you of course!

Satoshi: (rolls eyes) Oh so it's the usual plot line then? (nudges Okita) This by the way could be hazardous to your health.

Okita: (blinks) Oh really?

Kai: (playing with Saizo) Actually, I was thinking of putting Hijikata in a dress!

Hijikata: (chokes on smoke) Like hell you will you little brat!

Okita: (snickers) I think it would suit you Toshi-sama

Hijikata: (glares) Shut up Souji!

Tetsu: Kai-chan doesn't own Peacemaker!

Kai: (huggles Okita) but if I did, Okita would be mine and he would cough up lots more blood!

Noma: Cuz nothing's sexier then a hot guy coughing up blood!

Okita: (pouts) I don't think I like we're this is going.

"Tetsu, look out!" Okita screamed as a Choshuu swordsman lunged straight for the redheaded boy. Okita quickly dispatched the samurai he was sparing with and ran towards Tetsu, knocking him out of the way.

"Mr. Okita!" Tetsu shouted as he scurried over to the wounded 1st captain of the Shinsengumi. "Are you okay, Mr. Okita?"

Okita gave Tetsu a weary smile as he clutched his bleeding side in pain. "I'll be fine, Tetsu," he assured the boy, "it's just a small scratch, that's all."

Hijikata snorted as he dispatched the last of the samurai goons in an attempt to get to Okita and Tetsu. "Shit," he cursed as he ran towards his fallen friend. "What the hell did you do brat?"

Tetsu looked up from Okita's wound only to come face to face with one very pissed off Vice Commander. "I…he…saved me," he managed to stutter out before he was silenced by one of Hijikata's famous glares.

Hijikata growled as he turned his attention back to Okita, who was attempting to stand on his own. "Be still Souji," he commanded, keeping his voice soft as he wrapped Okita's wounded with one of the sleeves of a dead man's Yukata, "the should slow the bleeding down until I can get you back to headquarters and sew you up."

Tetsu bowed his head as Hijikata picked Okita off the ground as if he were a child. "I'm sorry," he muttered as they began the walk home, "I was only trying to help."

"You wanna help?" Hijikata inquired, sarcastically. "Go home Tetsu."

Tetsu glared daggers at the man, this was not the answer he was hoping to hear. "Stop treating me like I'm a little kid damnit!" he cursed, flicking the Vice Commander off.

Hijikata simply rolled his eyes at the petty insult as Okita allowed himself a small chuckle, until it turned into a coughing fit. Hijikata looked down at Okita, the concern apparent in his eyes before turning back to Tetsunosuke. "You know, you don't need that finger to be a good swordsman, brat," he stated as he was stopped again by another familiar face.

"So the great Toshizo Hijikata does have a weakness," the figure remarked with a sadistic smirk on his face. "Who would have thought?"

Hijikata glared daggers at the newcomer. "Toshimaru Yoshida, what the hell do you want?" he snapped.

"Temper, temper Vice Commander," Yoshida replied as he eyed the injured Okita like a hungry wolf eyes its prey, "all will become apparent in due time." and with that, he disappeared.

"Welcome back!" Sanosuke greeted as Hijikata came into view carrying Okita, followed by Tetsu. "What the hell happened?"

"Yes, do explain," Saito added as he appeared next to Sano.

"We got jumped by about ten Choshuu samurai," Hijikata began, as they brought Okita to his room and laid him on his bed.

Sanosuke raised an eyebrow as he caught a glimpse of the nice sized gash Okita had to his right side. "How the hell did Okita get that?" he asked as Hijikata began to clean the wound.

"The brat needed saving," Hijikata replied as he started to sew Okita's wound up, "Souji, stop squirming, you're only going to make it worse."

"But Toshi, it hurts," Okita whined as he tired to escape only to be pinned down again by Saito.

Hijikata sighed; he didn't understand why Souji had to make things so difficult. "This would be so much easier if he were unconscious," he muttered to himself as another plan began to formulate in his head, "Souji….sleep." and with that, Hijikata hit Okita in the head rendering him unconscious.

Saito raised an eyebrow as Okita's head fell into his lap. "Well, that's one way to get him to sit still," he remarked as Hijikata finished his task.

"Yah, I think you over did it just a little," Sano added.

Hijikata allowed himself a small smile as he covered Okita up with the blanket and brushed a few of his bangs to the side. "You're a real pain in the ass, Souji," he whispered before he and the others left him to rest.

Okita: (pouts) I see no Toshi-kun in a dress.

Kai: (glares) It's comin, it's comin, no need to get you loincloth in a bunch.

Kai: and quit spoiling it!

Okita: (pouts) You guys are being so mean to me

Okita: Please read and review! (eats candy)
