Hey! So I decided to do a fanfic of one of my favorite animes Samurai Champloo! I hope you like it!
I don't own Samurai Champloo!
Enjoy!
It was quiet around the campfire.
Fuu has been very quiet since the two men woke up. They thought she was just in shock. Who wouldn't be?
It's been a weak since those brothers kidnapped her and almost murdered the girl, she was beaten harshly. For a week straight, she didn't sleep and she tended to Mugen's and Jin's wounds. When they woke she only said, "I'm so glad you're okay", nothing else. When they asked her what happened to her at the church, she didn't reply. She just got this heart breaking look on her face.
So now both of the men kept glancing at Fuu worriedly. Mugen looked to Jin and gave him a look, a look that said "Make her talk, please". That surprised Jin, usually Mugen would love this. But Fuu's silence is making the both of them very uneasy.
Jin sighed and smiled warmly at Fuu. He's come to think of Fuu as a little sister. He hates to see her this way.
"Fuu." He said.
Fuu jumped at the sudden voice that filled the silent air. She looked up at Jin, her brown eyes wide. Jin just smiled warmly at her.
"Fuu, sing." He said. Fuu raised a brow, confused by his sudden request. Jin read the confusion in her eyes. "It is our last night together, we should be able to hear you sing at least once." He said.
Fuu oftened hummed to herself, writing in that diary of hers. Mugen scoffed and rolled his eyes.
"Please, as if the bitch could sing." Mugen mumbled, knowing it would get to her.
Fuu glared at Mugen before smiling a blank smile at Jin. "Okay."
Silence once again filled the air as Fuu stared blankly at the fire, the two men stared at her patiently.
"We built sandcastles that washed away..." Fuu sang quietly.
Mugen's eyes widened slightly. Holy shit. Her voice was soft and angelic, yet strong. This girl could sing. He glanced at Jin who just smiled knowingly, like he knew how good Fuu was. Mugen looked back at the girl, she was still staring at the fire.
"I made you cry when I walked away..."
Fuu knew she hurt her father deeply when she just turned around and was about to walk away. She regretted that decision in the next couple of seconds... Because her father was killed.
"And although I promised that I couldn't stay... Every promise don't work out that way..."
She said that that was all she needed to say to him, that she would never forgive him and never see him again... She wished she hadn't said those words to him.
She wasn't thinking right. Those men... the ones who took her to get to Mugen, she was so distraught and angry and ashamed by everything they did to her... She's so angry.
"Dishes smashed on the counter from that last encounter..." Fuu sounded so sad.
Mugen wondered what she was talking about. The last encounter? The incident at the church? Was she talking about the brothers and what they did?
"Pictures snatched out the frames..."
Fuu was so angry. She snapped when the men were asleep in their small comas. She smashed every dish in the house, she ripped up off the pictures she once drew for her father. She was just so damn angry.
"Bitch, I scratched out your name and your face! What is it about you that I can't erase?!" Her voice grew stronger and angrier. Mugen stared with wide eyes and he suddenly got it.
Something horrible happened to Fuu at the church, before he was able to get there... Was she...?
Mugen saw red as he looked to Jin, but Jin shook his head. Mugen deflated when he saw the look on Jin's face, telling him not to say anything. Jin knew she needed to get this out.
Fuu hated those brothers... She hated them for what they did to her. Those monsters... they took something that didn't belong to them. They took her innocence, they took her way of thinking.
Fuu used to see the good in the world, she used to see the world as bright and hopeful. But now it was dark and full of monsters, she was part of the monsters now.
"And my heart is broken, 'cause I walked away... I'll show you my scars, but please don't walk away." She looked up at Mugen and Jin, they looked startled. Was she talking to them? Fuu sighed and shook her head. "And I know I promised that I couldn't stay... but every promise don't work out that way..."
Fuu looked away from the two men. She looked out towards the dark forest. "Every promise don't work out that way..."
It grew quiet again and the two men shared the same look of concern. "You have a beautiful voice, Fuu." Jin said. Fuu looked at Jin with a blank face and that startled the both of the men.
"Thanks." She replied.
Mugen looked at the girl impassively. "Girly." He said. Fuu looked at Mugen. "What happened at the church?" He asked.
Fuu sighed and looked away. "I don't wanna talk about it." She said. Both of the men sighed dejectedly. Fuu looked up at the full moon and gave it a hard glare. "But I will say that will never happen to me ever again." She said, her voice cold.
Both men looked at her shocked as she stood up. "Where are ya goin'?" Mugen asked.
"For a walk." Fuu replied before walking away.
Mugen and Jin watched as she walked away, both of them worried for the girl. Mugen looked at Jin.
"Is it me or has Fuu gotten... colder?" Mugen asked. Jin sighed and crossed his arms.
"It seems so." He replied.
It was quiet after the short exchange. Neither one would say it, but they didn't want to leave Fuu alone anymore. Though Fuu might not be thinking the same thing.
Mugen stood up abruptly and Jin looked at him curiously. "Where are you going?" Jin asked, already knowing what he was going to do.
"For a walk." Mugen said before walking away.
Well that's all folks. The song was Sandcastles by Beyonce. This will be a series and it will be set after the ending of Samurai Champloo.
Well thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed!
Until next time!
