The rain was freezing, even with clothes on. But then again, it should be cold with clothes on. Gin should have worn something warmer… Even with a rain hat on, her face was still soaked. Gin was wearing an orange and blue hakama, with her arms in the kimono part… What's it called? Ah, well. Gin barely noticed as her foot slid over a sharp rock. Looking up from the ground she saw a light, and moving to the forest on the side of the road and she climbed up. Seeing that it was only a few police officers and some criminals, she tensed. Being a pickpocket isn't really the best occupation but being on the streets it is better than selling yourself.
"We should stop here for the night," One of the cops stated.
"But what if the criminals try to escape?" Another asked. The first snorted.
"We'll be fine." A third one stepped in.
"We should keep going." The first looked as if he was going to protest but it seemed The Thirds word was law.
"It's sure good that, that Rurouni was there! We would've never gained control back in Kyoto!" The second one changed the tension.
"Oh and did you see that doctor? She bandaged the wounded so fast!"
"Pretty amazing bunch in Kyoto! What was that dojo's name again?"
"Something about Katsujiken…" The Policeman scoffed. "What a load! 'A sword that gives life?' Ha! Like there is a thing! Anyone who uses that is as good as dead!" The Policemen laughed and a few of the criminals smiled as if agreeing with them.
As soon as they were a speck in the distance Gin climbed down the tree.
Kyoto, huh?
