Princess Yuya

By: Lady Danielle

Brother's and Dreams

Every since they returned back from the dark forest Yuya has been feeling a strange, but familiar feeling in her chest. Her group has been told to go to this unknown, towards her, man name Murmasa house while hearing the news of Akira has Demon Eyes Kyo's body in Kyoto. Now, Sasuke, Yukimura, Okuni, Kyo, Benitora, and herself are camping out with their new companion Bontenmaru. As she sits on the opposite of the camp fire of Kyo and Bontenmaru she closes her eyes and tries to go to sleep. But, for some reason with the safest samurai's she feels on guard and strange with them. Once Bontenmaru join the group she's been feeling strange. As she lays down in her bed, facing the tree behind her, she closes her eyes and tries to fall asleep. And when she does, she dreams the strangest but realist dream.

*******Dream******

She didn't feel nervous or scared letting down her elder brother's because she did it for a reason. No way she was going to face her former master and her best friend. No way. But, without bring back their heads caused much trouble for Yuya. Her job as a Red Knight was to do what the Crimson King wished, even if she was Master Muramasa- sama's body guard and the demon's child dearest friend. She felt relieved and at the same time...ashamed. Her elder brothers, Chinmei, Kyoshiro, and the Crimson king gathered together with her in the middle. She was on her knees and her head pressed the cool floor.

"Please forgive me, my king and brothers. I didn't mean to..."

"You adored Muramasa and that demon child. I should have done it myself." Kyoshiro voice was angry.

"Brother Kyoshiro, relax. She's still young. We shouldn't blame Yuya for letting them go." the Crimson King said.

"Now, now, its not like we can't get them in the future. Besides, Muramasa will die soon, very soon." Chinmei said, chuckling. "Love and peace my brothers." he walked to the bowing Yuya and traced the red cross on her back. "Yuya is still young and a girl at that."

"That's not far." she sat up and glared at him. "I was born just the same as you and Kyoshiro. Don't look down on me because of sex! Muramasa and Kyo are very special to me. I admit I do regret letting them go and betraying the Mibu by letting them do that, but we both know my training isn't the best, compare to Muramasa!"

"Then, train harder. But that doesn't give you the excuse for the demon child." Kyoshiro looked down at her.

"Is it because he's the only one who can touch you? Someone outside of the family can touch him." the Crimson asked, getting up from his seat and walking down the stairs towards her.

She found herself in his arms and her nose almost touching his. "Touching me?"

"That demon child could touch you, Yuya. Is that what you like? His body against yours?"

"What are you talking about? Do you mean taking a bath together?" she asked with a questionable look because she had no idea what he was talking about. She was only twelve.

"She's too young to understand all that." Chinmei laughed.

"I rather have my sister staying pure." Kyoshiro said.

"We all would. And she will." Crimson King smiled.

"I really don't get your guys. I'm always clean."

"Yuya, you are so cute and clueless, but you are just a child."

"I'm not a child!" she spat at her older brother.

*****End of Dream*****

Yuya makes a little gasps coming out from her dream and hears Kyo and Bontenmaru whispering about something.

"She...like her." she hears Bontenmaru.

She sits up from her futon and takes a deep breath. "That was weird." she calmly says to herself, looking into the deep and half lite forest. It is early, too early to start going on the road or waking the others up. But, a dip in the hot spring sounds good. She gets up, folds her futon without taking in any interest towards Kyo and Bontenmaru's eyes. She is in deep thought with the dream.

'Kyoshiro, my brother? And who is Chinmei? And was that truly to crimson king? That dream was too weird to be real.' she sits down, head looking straight ahead, legs fold under her, and body still and tense. 'Kyo and Muramasa? Who is Muramasa?...My..my master? Master of what? I can't see myself fighting anyone.' she starts to rub her still hands together as she gets up without using them. Her eyes are focused one target and only one target only. She is looking at Demon Eyes Kyo's eyes and didn't even realize it until he says something.

"What the hell are you looking, dog-face?" he asks her, smoking his face.

Normally, she will get upset, but she just shook her head laughing at the thought of her dream and walks away to the hot spring. "Interesting, but sad."

Lady Danielle: What you think? I'm going to do it like this for now on. Yay!
