Disclaimer: I do not own Gintama. It is written and illustrated by Hideaki Sorachi. If I was it would be a yaoi one with Hijikata and Gintoki as the main pairing. ^-^

A/N: A reminder to avoid confusion: in this chapter, Gintoki and Hijikata have switched bodies, so when those two are not alone, Hijikata will be referred to as Gintoki as well as Gintoki will be Hijikata.

Chapter 2

Loud footsteps are barging to the Yorozuya's place. It was Shinpachi.

"Gin-san! Its 11am now! Get up! Gin-san! Gin-san..? You're awake?"

"You're so loud Shinpachi! A normal citizen would have been awake early. Well, Kagura is an exception."

Shinpachi started crying.

"Oi, what's your problem?"

"Gin-san… *sneezes* did you hit a wall or something? You are now being a responsible citizen. This is not a dream right?"

Does that Yorozuya bastard been so irresponsible? This is awkward, I'll better go to a job soon to find out how to get back to my body.

Gintoki smiled and asked Shinpachi. "Do we have a job today?"

Shinpachi wiped his tears away and responded. "Yes, we have-wait I'll tell the details later. I have to wake Kagura-san first."

Hijikata, being in Gintoki's body was hoping for a simple job. But little he did know that he was going to do a job in at this place.

"Shinapchi-kun? Are we really going to do a job here?"

"Are your ears and memory gone bad Gin-chan? Hahaha!" Kagura laughed at Gintoki. "You're even excited when we accepted this job."

"Kagura's right Gin-san. Why are you complaining?"

"But this is… the Shinsengumi's barracks!" What the hell is that idiot Gintoki accepting a job here? And he's even excited! Is he really that eager to annoy me?

Shinpachi was getting irritated with Gintoki's reluctance to do the job. "Stop complaining Gin-san! The request is to clean the barracks!"

As this moment, Kondou noticed their arrival and greeted them.

"Good thing you guys came. The barracks is so dirty right now and the cleaning staff can't handle it. And one more thing, Toshi's acting weird. It is not bad of a change, but he seems not normal. I wonder if he got possessed again."

This caught their attention. Gintoki started bugging Kondou questions. "What? What did Hijikata-san do? Oi!"

Shinpachi was wondering about Gintoki's reactions. "It's surprising that you question Kondou-san about that. But we have a cleaning duty to do."

"No, it's fine by me if you want to go see Toshi." Kondou responded. "I believe he is in a meeting right now, saying that he will revise the rules in the barracks. It was shocking for us since he's always sticking to it so much."

"Eh? What? He's going to do that?" Gintoki, Shinpachi and Kagura were surprised.

Hijikata was now having a meeting with his subordinates.

"Guys, I have just realized that the Shinsengumi's rules are too strict and we all need a breath of fresh air, and so I'll announce the change of rules."

Yamazaki raised his hand.

"What is it? Jimi-k-… I mean Yamazaki."

"This isn't like you Vice-Commander. Did you hit your head or something?"

A random book came flying to Yamazaki's forehead.

"No, I didn't hit my head. I just realized that the rules need to be revised. So the first rule that we should change is that 'Jump is not allowed to read in the barracks'. Everyone should read Jump! And drinking inside the-…"

A sudden voice interrupted the meeting.

"Shut up bastard!"

Everyone was surprised by the sudden arrival of Yorozuya's Gintoki. But Hijikata-san smiled.

"Oh, its Gintoki-kun. You came to see me.~"

"Oi come with me."

And they left the meeting room with everyone surprised. Kondou broke the silence. "I didn't know that they were good friends."

"You! What are you exactly doing? I reminded you to protect the discipline of the group! Why are you changing the rules to your own convenience? And you look like you're enjoying yourself!"

"Mayora-san, the rules that you mad are too rigid, and changing one or two shouldn't affect it. How can I live without Jump?"

"The hell do I care about you? Don't ruin my reputation."

"I could say the same as you! What are those cigarettes and mayonnaise that you have there? It is ruining my reputation as a healthy man!"

"Your reputation has nothing to lose about! Shinapachi was even crying earlier because of my actions. He thought you have now some responsibility now."

"He didn't saw your mayo and cigarettes! That's why he can say that! Just go to your work! You have to clean the barracks, right? As me in your position have many things to do."

"Hmph! Wait till I get my body back you bastard."

A familiar voice is calling out in the hallway. "Hijikata-san, where are you? Kondou-san is calling for you." It was Okita.

Hijikata responded. "I'm coming-" But he didn't know what coming to him.

BOOM!

"What the hell are you doing Okita-san? Why did you fire a bazooka?"

"Che—It missed."

Oh, crap. I forgot that Okita has a grudge against Hijikata.

Gintoki was grinning at Hijikata. As if saying that serves you right."

Okita noticed Hijikata.

"Ah, Danna. I didn't notice you. Do you have a job here in the barracks?"

"Yes." It was awkward for Hijikata, who was Gintoki right now, to have a pleasant conversation with Okita. "Well, I'm off to clean the barracks."
