Chapter One – Forget Me Not, Kasumi
"Ryu, your father wants you." He sighs and turns around "Just tell him I'm busy… Please, Irene?" She smiles "Sure dear." She leaves the room. He lays down on the bed and pulls a picture out of his pillow case "It's been years since I seem her and it feels like she's gone from the face of the earth." The picture showed him and a oranged hair girl in his arms hugging him. He turned the picture over and there was writing on it. He smiled to it "Thanks for a great time and saving me all the time. You don't have to protect me anymore. Hope to see you again. Love Kasumi xo xo" He put the picture back in the pillow case "I can still remember that day... Irene told me that Hayate said that Kasumi committed suicide."

Irene walks into the kitchen and I'm sitting in the weight room lifting weights with my father, cracking jokes about everyday life. Irene heard the door move and walked over to it "Oh, Hello Hayate. How can I help you?" Hayate sighed "Is Ryu here…? It's important." Irene shook her head "No, he's not. What is it?" Hayate looked down "My sister Kasumi, she's getting married and it's by force. I need him to come to me in three days. That's the wedding day." Irene smiled "I'll tell him when he gets home." He nodded and vanished.
I walked upstairs "Irene, what's the matter?" Irene was "crying" "Oh, Ryu. Something awful happened." I looked at her "What?" She looked away "Hayate's sister… committed suicide." I nearly fell over and sat down "W-What? How do you know?" Irene stood up "Hayate stopped by and told me to tell you. He couldn't bear to say it to your face" I stood up "Did he say when the funeral was?" Without evening thinking she said "It's in three days. He'll meet you at his house." I nodded and ran upstairs to my room.
(Flash Back Ends and Everyone's P.O.V)
Ryu got up from changing into a tuxedo and runs to Hayate "Hey…" Hayate smiles "Ready for the mission?" Eliot, Zack, Tina, and Kokoro come out in formal clothes. "Hey, long time no see Ryu." He blinks "What's the mission?" Tina smiles "Irene told you, didn't she?" Ryu shrugged "Can you remind me?" Hayate coughs "Kasumi is getting forced to marry a man by the name of Jin Kazama." Ryu's mouth fell "Irene told me that Kasumi committed suicide!" Tina glares "May I kill that bitch?" Ryu scoffs "Go for it." Hayate steps in "Let's go guys. We need to hurry and get there. Ryu you're going to say I object, okay?" He nods and vanishes to the church.
Everyone takes their seats and the music began to play. Once the flower girls and brides maids went the doors opened to a woman with long graceful orange hair went all the way down to her feet and bright baby blue eyes shining, her gown was a pale blue with red linings and she walked pass Hayate and them to Jin with a false smile. The priest raised his hands "We are gathered here today to join this man and this woman in holy matrimony. If anyone believes these two don't belong together, Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace!" Ryu stands up in the aisle with his hands in his pockets "I object." Everyone turned with a huge gasp. The priest smiles "and what is your reason for your objection sir?" Ryu slowly started walking up to them with a wicked smile.
"Well, to start off. This is a forced marriage and this girl doesn't even look happy that she's doing this. Plus I grew worried about her when her brother Hayate told my wife that she apparently tried killing herself that she was getting married to this freak. I was also hired to place Princess Kasumi under arrest if she resists, I have the right to kill her here and now." He looked at Kasumi who was afraid. The Priest shook his head "Do you have a badge to prove what you're saying is the truth?" Ryu smirks "Princess, if you value your life, you will come with me." Kasumi gulped and reached her hand to him. Jin pulls her into his arms "You are NOT taking my bride." Jin throws her on to the floor and pulls his sword out and charges at Ryu. Ryu suddenly vanished behind Jin, picks up Kasumi, throws her over his shoulder, and basically runs out of the church laughing like a maniac that just got done killing tons of people.
Kasumi was kicking and screaming "I order you to stop and let me go!" Ryu stopped in a house out in the middle of the forest and ties her up "I'm surprised you don't remember me, Kasumi." She stopped wailing and looked at him "Should I?" He scoffed and sat down "Yeah, you should." He started a fire. She stared at him for a while "Can you please untie me?" He did and sat back down "Since I trust you won't run away…" He stared into the fire. She sat up and her eyes got big "H-Hayabusa?" He smiled and looked back "Good, you remember me." Tears fell from her eyes and she hugged him. "I haven't seen you in years! I've missed you!" He put his arms around her and whispered into her ears "I need you to do me a favor." She looked at him "what is it?" He smiled "I need to look like you got majorly hurt. So I can take you to my house to piss off my wife." She nodded, ripped her dress, fucked up her hair, sliced up her skin and press parts of her dress to her wounds and threw dirt on her face "Alright…"
He picked her up and appeared in front of Irene and his father "I'm back." His father smiled "Have fun, I take it?" Ryu grinned "Yep. Oh, this is Kasumi. You remember her, don't you dad?" His mouth fell "Wow, she grew up to be sexy." Ryu glared "Dad! Get that gross crap outta your perverted mind!" His dad laughed and then frowned when Irene looked. "I thought she committed suicide?" Ryu shrugged "I found her lying in the dirt outside of town with Hayate and by the way she's staying here with us." Irene was about to object when Ryu made his way upstairs to the third floor two floors above where he sleeps. "Kasumi, this is where your sleeping at now. I'll take you into town tomorrow and buy you some clothes, Alright?" She smiled "Alright." She snuggled up under his chin and he blushed hard.
He sat her on the bed and shut the door. "Here's a shirt of mine that you can where to bed." She took it out of his hands and hugged it "It smells like you." He blushed "Stop it, Kasumi…" She giggled and basically tore her dress off in front of his eyes and smiled shyly "Do you like what you see, Hayabusa-sama?" His face turned bright red as his eyes traveled down her body and he turned away "Pu-Put some damn clothes on woman!" She laughed and slid his shirt on "Sorry, it seemed like a funny idea" He stormed out of the room. She left the room and went to the bathroom. "I'm going to take a bath…" She ran hot water in the large bath tub and stopped it when it was one-fourth full to the top and got in.
Ryu went back upstairs to the bathroom that Kasumi was bathing in and took his shirt off. He didn't know she was still in there. He folded his clothes, put them on the counter, locked the door, pulled the curtains back, and then freaked out "What the hell are you doing in here!" Kasumi raised her eye brow "I've been in here for at least four minutes, Hayabusa-sama. Care to join me?" He blushed and sighed "Fine, but just this once." He slid into the water quickly. She smiled at him "Why are you so mean?" He looked at her "What do you mean?" She fiddled with her fingers "You seem like you don't want your wife to catch you being with me." He blushed "I don't" She eyed him "O-oh…" She stood up and got out, wrapped herself up in a towel and left to her room and….cried.
