DISCLAIMER: DON'T OWN ANYTHING

Chizuru's point of view…

It was a very pretty morning out. The fog was just covering the mountains, and the birds were singing a pretty tune. "Chizuru, you can go get into the bath now," Sen yelled. I had been staying at Sen's house for the time being, untill I was ready to go back to Ezo. I wanted to go back as soon as I could. They needed me. "Ok," I replyed. Sen was a really nice host, but I really missed the shinsengumi. I went and took my bath, which helped me relax. I got out of the bath tub and put on my red kimino that had white flowers on it. When I went out to the living room area I saw that Sen was already sitting down waiting for me. We started talking about different things. "Wait, so your telling me that you are 43 years, old?" I asked Sen. "Yes, she replyed." "Dang girl, you don't look that old. You look like you're the same age as me, and I'm only 20." "Thanks,I think. Sen replyed. So Chizuru I wanted to talk to you about something." "Yeah," I said. "So I really don't want you going to Ezo by yourself because of how dangerous it is. I really would like you to travel with someone, and they are stopping by today and spending the night. So maybe you would like to ask them to travel with them. It would put my heart at ease knowing that you are safe, so do you like the idea?" "Yeah, who is it?" "Well, Sen told me, your not going to like it but would be best for you to do so. I mean you are starting to look more like a girl every day. Chizuru, it's Amagiri, Shiranui, and Kazama." I was speachless. Everytime I had seen them they had tried to kidnapp me. "Please just think about it."Sen said. "And if you do decide you want to there is something that you should know. I haven't talked to them about it. I didn't want to in case you decied not to. Just think about it okay. You may have been able to dress like a boy once but you can't forever." Sen then got up and left me to think about this on my own. I got up and went up to my room. Sen was right though. I had grown my hair out, and my chest was getting bigger ,but not to much. No matter where I went I always seemed to be getting into trouble. Maybe Sen was right, maybe I should travel with them. I decieded to take a nap untill dinner. It felt like I had only been asleep for a few minutes when I heard Sen yelling at me saying it was time for dinner. When I went down to the dinning room they were there. My face turned a rosey red when I saw kazame looking at me. What! Why is this happening to me? Dinner seemed to drag on forever. I helped Sen's servents collect and do the dishes. Thinking to about what Sen had said earlier. She was right. It would be safer for me to travel with them then by myself. But that ment that I would have to ask. I figured that I would ask kazame since he was the one in charge. But that ment that I would have to gather up my courage.

It was night time and pretty much everyone had gone to their rooms. Yet I was in my room hyperventalting trying to figure out how to ask him. I finally got the courage to go to his room. I walked as slow as I could. When I got up to his door I did a really light knock trying not to disturb him. Hearing no answer I slowly opened up the door and went in. I walked over to the middle of his room, and looked around. He wasn't in here. I heard the door slam behind me. My heart jumped. I quickly turned around. I saw kazame give me his famous smirk. He started walking toward me, and I backed up. I ended up with my back against the wall. I was scared and speechless. He lifted my chin up. "So what are you doing here in MY room, have you come to please me?" I quickly lost the shock. " No that's not it at all." I said as I shoved him away from me and quickly gathered myself together. "Then why are you here?" Kazame said. "I wanted to ask you something." I replyed. "Oh what is it?" He anxiously asked. I took a big breath and said "I heard that you were going to ezo and I wanted you to take me with you." "No."He told me. I felt like part of me just died. I knew that Sen was right. If I traveled with them then I would get there much faster then if I went alone. I felt like begging, but I knew better to do that. "Why not?" I asked impatiently. "You'll slow us down, you can't use your powers, and your always getting into trouble. Besides what would you give to me if I take you? I was shocked at what he said, but he was right. "What do you mean give you?" He let out a chuckle and said " well you did't expect me to take you for free, did you? I kind of did expect him to though. I didn't have anything of value that I could give him. I really needed him to take me to ezo. "I don't know." I told him. His smirk was burning into me by now. "Well there is one thing,"He told me, perking my intrest. "Are you still a virgin Chiziuru?" I was shocked. My face was beat read. "I am," I stuttered. "I wish to take your virginity. Not tonight, but whenever I want." He told me. At this point I was desperate. "Fine."I mumbled. Suddenly both of our wrists glowed gold, and a tiny star showed up. HUH. Kazame looked at me and said "you are now bond by your word and can't go back on it, that will make sure that you do. You see if you brake your word then that will cause you pain. You may go now. Be ready to leave at 6." I nodded my head and numbly made my way back to my room and packed my things.
