Hello dear readers! So this is just some random drabble I came up with, inspired off a picture I came across and my ever so wonderful Florence station on my Pandora. I planned for this just to be a one shot deal, but I ended up writing it into a chapter story haha. Let me know what you think and if i should continue this. Ja nee~
I do not own Gintama or any of it's superbly awesome characters.
Okita POV:
It was suppose to be just any other routine mission. Swoop in and out. Take out whatever threat there was and then let the other Shinsengumi members deal with the clean up.
Easy. I thought. It was suppose to be an easy mission.
Of course that all changes as soon as we arrived at the warehouse, where this seemingly "small threat" was suppose to be at.
Small my ass.
It was obvious that this threat wasn't as small as Matsudaira claimed it was. The warehouse was completely engulfed in flames. Embers filled the air, and it looked like it wouldn't be long before the building would collapse on itself.
Normal POV:
"Ugh what kind of threat is this suppose to be? Huh!? We're the damn Shinsengumi, not firefighters!" the demon vice-commander said pulling out his mayo lighter to light one of his cancer sticks.
"Oi, Hijibaka you don't need your lighter, just walk into the warehouse and surely the fire will light up your cigarette along with you." the bishounen super sadist deadpanned.
"Ugh whatever, just take of it will you?"
"As soon as you die Hijikata-san," the sadist replied cooly.
"Ugh! You're seriously starting to-"
Before he could even finish that sentence, a familiar clang was heard. A clang that could only be made when swords would strike each other.
Both males curiously looked on at the warehouse, and were shocked to make out the figures of a perm head samurai and the wanted one eyed Joui patriot.
They knew immediately that this was a death match. Only one of those samurais would be walking out of this building alive.
"Come on Sougo. We have no business here." Hijikata blew out a puff of smoke and began to walk towards the other members who came with them to tell them to leave.
Sougo began to walk towards the burning warehouse, "This looks interesting. Danna and that patriot in a death match? I don't think I'll ever get another chance at this again."
He jumped up toward a flame free window and shouted toward Hijikata, "Oi Hijibaka, go on ahead of me! I'm gonna catch some front row seats!"
"Sougo! What the hell are you doing!? Get down from there now!"
"Sorry, can't miss Danna in serious action. Ja nee~" Sougo hopped down into the warehouse.
"Sougo!" Hijikata tried to go after and pull him before he could leap on, but as soon as Sougo leaped in, the window caved in on itself, leaving only a fiery pile of debris.
"Dammit that idiot!"
"What do we do now Vice Commander!? The Captain will be trapped in there!"
"Tch! Everyone go and fetch water to put this damn fire out! We need to drag that stupid Captain out of there!" Hijikata then remembered seeing the silver head samurai and the patriot in there, "There are two samurai in combat in there! They are extremely dangerous! Whatever you do do not interfere with their battle! If you come across them, run away! Our objective is to get Sougo! Ignore any other persons! Got it!?"
"Yes! Vice Commander!" The men answered and got in their squad cars to fetch water.
"I hope we make it in time….don't die you idiot!" Hijikata cursed to himself.
Okita had been walking around the warehouse for maybe 10 minutes now, "This is surprisingly big for what it looks like on the outside."
Clang
"Heh looks like I found the show." He quickly ran towards the sound of clashing swords.
As soon as he arrived he was almost dumbfounded at the sight before him. It wasn't Danna or the patriot. It was the Yorozuya's other male member. And he was fighting from what Okita could tell, looked like a lolicon.
"What the hell is that Megane doing here? I thought it was just Danna? Isn't that patriot guy crazy dangerous? Why would he bring Megane with him?"
All of a sudden, he heard and all too familiar battle cry coming from a few meters behind him.
"Eat this you dirty panties!"
No way.
He turned to find the vermillion hot headed Yato fighting with some blonde woman.
China!? Why is she here too!?
He heard the fall of a sword and turned to see the Megane had actually beat the lolicon looking man. "Probably wasn't much of an opponent."
Although Sougo did admit that the Shimura kid wasn't half bad.
He quickly hid himself when he saw the Megane call over towards Kagura.
"Kagura! I'm gonna try and find Gin-san!"
"Don't worry Shinpachi! I'll finish her off and meet you soon!"
That ticked off the blondie, "Heh finish me off? Please little girl! And I wouldn't bother looking for your boss either! He's probably on his knees begging for his life right now!"
Suddenly Kagura knocked the blonde to the other side of the warehouse, "Heh don't take me so lightly little girl! I'll leave it to you! Pachie boy!"
Shinpachi took off, leaving Kagura and the blonde to battle it out.
"Hmm….I wouldn't mind seeing China get beat, but I know she'll probably win, so that's no fun." Sougo began to follow Shinpachi quietly and undetected.
He followed him all the way into a clearing at the furthest end of the warehouse. There they found the two samurai, bleeding and exhausted. However only one of them truly looked exhausted.
"That patriot guy sure is something. To think Danna's having trouble against him." Sougo found a crate to hide behind and moved forward for a better view. From there he could hear their conversation.
"Still stubborn as ever I see, Gintoki." The man named Takasugi wore a wicked smile on his face.
Gin was bleeding all over. He was visibly exhausted, but he still continued to wear that sarcastic expression, "Heh, haven't changed much either, Bakasugi."
"Hmph, when will you ever learn Gintoki? I told you that I'm not a menace to this world. I simply want to bring back the world that our Sensei loved. You should understand Gintoki. Why don't you join me?"
"Yea by destroying it? Don't think so, you can count me out." He smiled in a painful way, knowing his body was ready to give up, but he wasn't going to.
"Hmph. You're definitely the biggest hypocrite of them all." Takasugi quickly charges forward in an instant and he and Gin were in a power struggle.
"I wouldn't want someone who abandons his own morals so easily in league with me."
"I never abandoned them, Bakasugi. They've just changed. My morals were always there, they just transferred to the people I've come to care about." Gin struck back, and pushed Takasugi back.
"The people you care about huh? So cause the person you cared about died, you just decided that you could find replacements huh?" Takasugi immediately spotted Shinpachi, "What if I just killed those you cared about!? Would you be able to replace them too!?" He quickly charged at Shinpachi.
"Shinpachi!"
Before Shinpachi could react Takasugi was already before him, and all he could do, was close his eyes and take the inevitable. But that inevitable didn't happen, because he was saved.
Shinpachi was shocked at the sight before him and so was Sougo.
"Hoho? This just turned interesting."
Gin was standing before Takasugi, his sword piercing his shoulder. Blood gushed from Gin's new wound. A horrified Shinpachi caught a falling Gin, "GIN-SAN!"
Takasugi drew back his sword and stared down at the injured samurai.
"This is your punishment, Gintoki."
Gin tried standing with the help of Shinpachi, "Gin-san!"
"You disposed of the morals our teachers gave us and sullied our name as samurai." He looked toward Shinpachi with contempt, "You trampled on everything we held as precious, so I'm just going to return the favor." Takasugi stabbed Shinpachi in the shoulder, causing him to cry out in pain.
"Damn this guy's a real monster. I probably should've listened to Hijikata back then." Sougo whispered to himself, still thankfully hidden behind the trait. "
Takasugi pushed his blade further into Shinpachi's shoulder, "I'm going to punish this world for taking away Sensei, and I'm going to start by taking away everything you hold precious. I'm going to leave you utterly alone in this world Gintoki!"
Suddenly Takasugi jumped back to dodge bullets heading his way.
"Hey! One-eyed weirdo! What do you think you're doing!?"
"Dammit she just had to come! Why didn't you stay away China!? Don't you notice the dangerous situation here?" Sougo inwardly yelled. Though he knew that she would go through any lengths for her friends.
"Oh what's this? A familiar face?*"
Kagura gave the man a glare before turning her attention to the two wounded men, "Shinpachi! Gin-chan!"
Shinpachi had helped Gin up, "Kagura! Stay away!"
"Oh? So she's important too?"
"Shit!" Gin inwardly cursed.
"Kagura-chan! Run away!" Shinpachi desperately yelled out.
"Too late." In the blink of an eye, Takasugi was already in front of the girl ready to cut her down. Kagura didn't even have a chance to react. Takasugi was about to strike.
"KAGUUURAAAA!"
A clang was heard.
