MY GOD! A Samurai Champloo fic :D I wrote this cause I just finished re-watching the series and I realized that the ending made me feel empty and wanting more. So...my over-active imagination went to work and I came up with this! Not a one-shot, there will be more later. Read and Review.

Disclaimer: Samurai Champloo, even though it's almost as sexy as me does not belong to me. And that makes me sad.

The journey was finally at an end, with Fuu finally meeting the Sunflower Samurai even though the meeting was not what she expected it to be.

Muugen and Jin had both survived very tough fights and had come to an understanding of mutual respect.

However, as the journey's objective was completed, there was no more reason to continue traveling together. So as the trio came to the crossroads, they began their farewells.

"Well then"

"Let us meet again"

"So hey there's one thing I hadn't told you"

The heads of the pirate and the samurai turned to face the tiny girl. A confused grunt and a "What's that" followed this proclamation.

"When we first started this journey, we made a bet, right? Well...it was actually heads. That's all." Fuu stated matter-of-factly as she brushed past them.

"Well let's meet up again"

The eyes of the two men stared at the back of the girl walking away. Then they turned to each other.

"Looks like we got tricked" Jin said with a slight shrug.

"Seriously, what was the point of the whole journey." the light reply of the vagrant was surprising. There was no hint of anger in it, like he wasn't pissed off at being dragged around for so long on just a lie.

The two took one last look at the disappearing figure of Fuu before turning and going their separate ways.

Mugen's stomach growled, reminding him that he didn't eat since that last meal at the cottage on that secluded island. Of course, he didn't have any money he could use to buy food.

He continued to walk, lacing his fingers behind his head as he turned his head to view the rice fields he was passing.

"Fuck," he was really starving.

He sighed, an action he almost never did. 'Really...what was the point of that whole trip...' he thought wistfully.

Sure he got a few good fights out of it, but he also nearly died at least 4 or 5 times. He didn't even get paid for the job, unless you counted those cakes and he went for weeks on end without food. He didn't even get a good lay the whole trip. He ended up knocked out more times than he could count by women he was supposed to screw.

His thoughts settled on a certain kunoichi. She was certainly a hot one and the things she promised him... Oh man...he nearly drooled as he remembered the sexual favors she said she would perform for him if he helped her. Well that's what she said...but he ended up knocked out and tied to a tree.

But seriously...throughout the trip he did not once have a satisfying screw. And they wondered why he was so irritable all the time. The reason he fought so much was because it got his mind off of his other 'sword'.

More than once he had the urge to just grab Fuu and screw her brains out but somehow he always managed to stop himself.

She wasn't that bad-looking even though all the comments he made about her would make it seem so. She had that whole 'innocent' look going on. And she wasn't as flat as she looked, something Mugen confirmed when he peeked on her in the bath. She also had some nice legs that he wouldn't mind having wrapped around him and a tight ass that he wouldn't mind spanking.

Mugen felt another part of his anatomy starting to express its dissent.

He groaned. 'Hungry and horny, what a great fucking combo.'

He sat down on a nearby rock, glad to be finally off his feet. He had been walking for at least 4 hours without a rest. He wondered what the others were up to, it had been about a week since they went their own ways.

'Ol' fish-face prolly went back to see his woman' the vagrant chuckled as he thought about how the uptight samurai had fallen for a simple prostitute.

'Fuu's prolly getting in trouble again. That lil bitch is always getting in over her head.' he smiled a little, thinking about how she could trip even when standing still. Suddenly he felt a pang in his heart.

'What if she really is in trouble? She barely knows how to use that tanto of hers.' His mind started running through the millions of situations she could be stuck in.

'Wait why the fuck am I worrying about her for. She's out of hair now. No more annoying bitch to hold me back. It's not like she did much for me anyways. Leaving me penniless and hungry. That's right...I'll hunt her down and make her compensate me. That's it, only reason I'm going after her. Compensation.' he affirmed to himself that, that was the only reason he was gonna go look for her. Nothing else.

"Hrmm...she went on the north path...and this is the west path..." he murmured, "so that would mean...if I cut across this forest I should end up somewhere near there."

He ran a hand through his messy hair and groaned as he hit a few snags. He really needed a haircut. He had let his hair grow the entire trip and now he no longer had his signature mini 'fro. His hair flopped messily across his forehead, occasionally getting into his eyes. It gave him a very un-Mugensque look. It made him look...as a girl put it, like pure sex. Not that he wasn't good-looking with his original haircut.

Mugen liked all the comments he was getting from girls but he knew that in fights, the hair would be distracting. Personally he didn't know how Jin put up with it.

He sighed as he ran through his hair one last time. "Might as well get going, not gonna get any fuller by sitting here."

He pushed pass the shubbery and muttered expletives as the undergrowth scratched his barely-covered legs. 'This better be worth the trouble.'

In a town several of miles away from where Mugen was.

"Order up! Come on new girl, hurry it up"

"Yes. Sorry, sorry." the brown-haired, doe-eyed girl replied. She picked up the order and ran to the table she was serving, stumbling a few times on the way there.

"Sorry for the wait" she said with a small bow.

Fuu sighed, 'Why was it always so busy at this time?' Then again, the reason she decided to work here was because it was so busy. It meant more tips and more spending money for her.

The reason she took this job in the first place was because about three days into her solo journey, she realized she was out of money. So when she saw the ad for 'young waitresses' she immediately took the job.

The job paid a lot so she wondered why no one wanted it, something she found out soon enough. The waitresses had to wear the skimpiest outfits and had suffer the groping of frisky men.

She sighed, she really wanted to get back onto the road. The job seemed dull to her and seeing all the travelers pass by made her think about her two former traveling companions.

"That's it last order. We're closing up." the gruff voice of the chef could be heard over the sizzle of the frying pan.

"Okay!" she replied cheerfully before moving to clear the dishes and wipe down the tables.

Before long the last of the customers trickled out of the store and Fuu was greeted with eerie silence.

"Hurry up! Finish cleaning up so I can close up!"

"Hai, hai" as she moved to finish mopping up.

A few moments later, she found herself in her pink kimono standing outside the shop. She gazed up at the sky. The sun had already set and the stars were just starting to come out. She would just have to pick up some groceries and then head to the room she was renting.

"I wonder what they're doing" she murmured.

Meanwhile in a forest in the middle of nowhere

"Argh...I'm really fucking lost aren't I."

The reclining figure swore "I swear every fucking tree looks the same and there's not even any fucking food to hunt here" he grimaced as he remembered trying to eat that little squirrely creature he killed.

He leaned back against a tree and looked up at the stars.

"I'll rest here for tonight. Tomorrow I'm definitely making my way out of this shitty forest." with that thought he closed his eyes and he drifted off to sleep, thinking about a certain someone.

Not that good I guess? Might be a little OOC in some places but I felt that Mugen really mellowed out at the end so I dunno.

Comments, criticisms, reviews are nice.
