Do you really want to die early in the morning when the sun rises, it's just too cliché!
- And why there is the Shinsengumi and also Katsura?
"Gin-chan, are you all right? I mean, do you handle yourself?"
Gintoki glanced Kagura and nodded.
"It's okay now, I think. Go, I think they need your help more than me."
Kagura didn't go. She just stared Gintoki.
" Oi, I'm okay, really, just go. See, Shinpachi need some help over there. Otae is really hurt you know."
"I know that, but you are also wounded Gin-chan."
"I promise, I just sit here and watch how the sun rise." Gintoki smiled to her. Kagura relaxed little bit.
" Promise?"
"I vow."
" Okay, but I'm coming back soon Gin-chan."
"Yes yes." Gintama sighed and watched how Kagura hurried over to Shinpachi who tried to help his sister. Otae's head was bleeding.
Clumsily he sat on the cold ground and leaned his back on the rock. His wounds weren't so severe, but still, Gintoki knew that there wasn't something right. He felt himself so tired, too tired. Like he was drained out. He watched how the sun rose, so golden, so beautiful.
And suddenly there was a pain. A terrible pain. He shivered fiercely. He bit his teeth together.
I know it. Damn you Takasugi!
But he only smiled, trying to focus his eyes over the sun.
They are alive, his friends. All of them. Not like in the war. He lost so many of them there. Too many friends. Now he was successfully protected his friends. So many friends.
New shiver forced him to close his eyes.
Is this the price? If it's, fine, I accept it.
" Gin-san, there you are."
Gintoki forced his eyes open. But he only saw the sun.
I know this voice.
"Zura?"
"Not Zura, Katsura." Katsura said annoyed. " I hate that name, Kintoki."
"Gintoki, Sakata Gintoki, you moron."
"You are. I have to go soon. The Shinsengumi not look through the fingers forever. Ceasefire is over soon enough."
" Zura?"
"Yes."
"Promise me something."
"What now?"
" Keep them safe."
"What? Who? Gin? Hey, buddy, are you okay?"
Katsura leaned forward and looked his friend closely.
" No, you are not okay, I can see that. Oh god, what this is? Gin? Gin?"
" I know my name, Zura."
"I'm Zura, you are Gintoki, I mean Katsura. I'm Katsura, you're Gintoki. Gin, stop that. Where you are hurt?"
Gintoki laughed a loud.
"Everywhere."
And the pain took him.
"Gin!"
He heared them, but he couldn't answered them.
A poison Takasugi? You sure are the slimy one.
And then there was only the sun, the golden sunrise.
Then, nothing.
English isn't my first language so forgive me about the errors. If you want beta this, let me know...
