Lesson 1: When trying to hit on someone, make sure there is no distractions.
[YAMAZAKI SAGARU]
"STOP!"
A young black haired man ran after his culprit. Yamazaki Sagaru often worked as a spy but right now he was just trying to catch the damn man the Shinsengumi had been looking for. Finally, Yamazaki would be doing something to make his superiors proud. He could feel everyone looking at him and like always they usually try not to get involved.
He was running out of breath, after all he had been chasing this man for a few streets now and the police car was nowhere in sight. Luckily the man tripped and fell face down into the ground. He finally handcuffed the man and wiped sweat off his forehead, he noticed a woman sitting calmly while drinking tea- she must have been the one who tripped him!
"Um… thank you very much for helping me…" He said shyly. The tired Shinsengumi member was never good around ladies, especially beautiful women. Sitting in front of him was a woman with hair as dark as night and slightly tanned skin as smooth as his vice commander's uniform (very smooth!). He could see long, curled lashes framing her eyes but when she looked at him he was stunned again.
Red. Her eyes were as red as rubies or the blood dripping from the injured culprit's head. She took a drag of her cigarette and blew out the smoke, "No worries, Shinsengumi-san."
Her voice was husky and soothing, there was just something quite alluring about it. He gulped down his nervousness. Should he walk away and put the culprit in the car (that finally arrived!) or continue talking to her? What should he say?
"I-It's Yamazaki… Yamazaki Sagaru."
"Well, Officer Yamazaki, I think you should head off."
"Eh?"
"The man. He's bleeding a lot. He might die you know."
"CRAP! If he dies, I'm going to die too!"
Yamazaki swung the man onto his shoulders and ran off, quickly shoving the man in the car and forced the other officer to drive away. If the man died, Hijikata, the vice commander of the Shinsengumi would have his head or make him commit seppuku.
That was not a nice thought.
A/N: Hello, this is the first chapter to 'The Strength in Fire', I hope you readers enjoy it! (If there is any...) I like writing OC characters and I try my best to make sure the characters don't go to OOC. I hope you review and leave your opinions! This is my first fanfic in a while (I stopped writing) so it might be bad but I hope you like it. The other Shinsengumi characters will not appear for a while but bear with me okay? This will be quite a long fanfic.
