I hope anyone who takes the time to read this will enjoy it.
These are two very short senarios that I thought of while I should have been paying attention in applied hydraulics. Memo to self: pay attention in class.
Afternoons
Saitou stood at the door of the Kamiya residence. He sighed. There was no easy way to do this but this was undoubtedly the best time. It was the best time that was available to him. The brat was helping out at that restaurant. The other child, the rooster head, was out gambling. The Fox, her sensei and his relations would be occupied until later today. That just left the Battousai and Kamiya home. And for the life of him, he couldn't figure out how to get Kamiya out of her own home long enough for him to talk to the Battousai. Humph! If she knew he was here she would purposely cancel any plans just to make sure her precious rurouni did not wander off. This was as good a time as he was going to get.
His eyes narrowed. He was fairly sure though, that after he explained the situation to the Battousai he would leave her here. As much as he hated it, this crisis would require them both and left no room for amateurs. All he had to do was explain it correctly. Saitou moved his hand to the door, not bothering to hide his presence.
He walked into the yard, looking for the Battousai and his keeper. Hmm, the laundry is done, the yard has been swept. He sniffed the air delicately. There was no one cooking. So where were they? He usually didn't have to wait this long for a fellow professional to notice his presence, especially when he had invaded their territory. He knew they were here. He had checked the river first in the hopes of catching him alone.
That's when he heard it. A muffled curse, the sound of someone moving hurriedly and the shouted question, "What is it, Saitou?"
He turned towards the voice. It was the Battousai's but it wasn't coming from his room. "I have to speak with you."
Another voice answered, from the same direction as the Battousai. "Piss off Saitou. I didn't invite you in. We're busy."
"Gomen, Saitou. Try again later tonight." The Battousai was definitely distracted.
"Tomorrow." The second voice added the word forcefully before it broke into giggles.
Saitou's eye brow rose. Kamiya was definitely growing up. Who would have thought? Well, it was definitely not the right time. Kamiya would probably skewer him herself if he interferred with her afternoon.
He sighed. He was going to have to handle this mission alone.
