Chapter 1
"Ha."-talking
Ha.-thinking
"Ah, Sougo," said Hijikata as he reads the newspaper while drinking his coffee. "Here's something you may enjoy."
Okita looks up from making his straw doll. "Hah?"
Hijikata shoves the newspaper into Sougo's stomach and pointed at the ad.
TOURNAMENT OF PAIN
Do you want to fight just for the fun of it? Do you enjoy seeing people twist in agony? Then come to the Kabuki District Arena this Friday to battle out with strangers! The winner of the tournament will face off with Yorozuya Gin-chan's Kagura! Be there when it happens.
"Hmm. Today's Friday, but I have to watch that soap opera by four today. Hijikata, tape it for me or I'll tell the whole world your secrets and send pictures of you to all the girls in Edo."
"You've done that already."
"Then I'll murder you while you're sleeping."
"Been doing that for years."
"I'll give you a picture of the Yorozuya boss when he was a kid after I come back."
"Deal."
Okita grabs his sword and walks out of the door. A tournament where I get to fight China, eh? Well, it's good exercise, he thinks as he walked toward the arena. I can finally defeat her and and humiliate her afterwards. Nobody ever said that double profit is bad since I get to humiliate her and she gets to get humiliated. We both profit.

A/N: And so ends chapter 1. I might update later if I'm too busy or I run out of ideas. Please review. Constructive criticism or flames if you feel like it.
