iloveokikagu: Don't be afraid, I hate sad ending too so it won't end badly. And yes, Kamui x Kagura is minor or one-sided you could say (because we all know that Kagura's heart is Sougo's property lol). See you soon o/

Meaning

Chapter 1: In my soul lay a mirror

Everything was drowned by a clear water reflecting the shy light of the opaline moon, reaching her thighs. Although she didn't know why her skin sensed no coldness at all. It was somehow appeasing since the place was calm, soundless. Not a single battle related noise, how pleasant: she was finally freed from this nightmare, freed from the anxiety of becoming a monster. Kagura moved a little, looking around, where was she anyway? Maybe it was a dream, then why couldn't she see any Sukonbu? She just sighed as a large wooded door just spawned in front of her, not wanting to debate mentally, the girl just opened it and entered.

The sky was grey and crying, Kagura just needed to look around in order to know the area: her home, in other word, the Yato's planet. Confused, our heroine studied what was happening ahead: a vermillion haired little girl cheerfully holding the hand of a red haired boy. Immediately, she followed them with her heart aching: they were a lively family before. Bakamui didn't have the right to destroy it. The teenager shook her head- it was already too late, nothing can be modified now- she just had to live with this fact: her family do no exist anymore. However, the Yorozuya was her new "tree" like her papi said, Gin-chan her surrogate father, Shinpachi her (useless megane ) brother, and plenty of other people like anego, sa- no she didn't think of sadist at allll. Still, the emotion of craving itched her, watching the two siblings smiling.

"My dearest place- no, it's just an illusion, Kagura. Don't be fooled. It died since a long time, and it won't ever come back."

Gintoki was certainly no prepared to see him, sure he was waiting for enemy coming, just no this kind though. The man had an idiotic smile one his face, his aura showed the contrary: he sure didn't come just to play, Gin knew it. The silver man took out his wooden sword from nowhere. It's a father job to protect his daughter.

"— So Samurai-san...Where is my sister ?" Threatened the guy with his antenna twitching again, like a living monster or a seaweed, after some time, he remarked the hole on the wall. "My, seems like Imouto-chan will have it today for sure."

"— What are you planning bastard ?"

Instead of answering, the intruder just smirked before launching himself at the man, a minor fight won't hurt, right ? He grinned even more as Gintoki warded himself with his bokuto, Kamui backed a little, only to throw a fast punch with the exclusive power a Yato possessed, making his opponent cough. It injured him even more than Kagura's, but it was still less than what he lived in war. He wasn't called the "White Yaskha" for nothing. So they duelled. In the street, since Yorozuya was pretty much wiped out by their brawl. Gintoki was sweating, he didn't get some advantage yet. Suddenly, the antenna of his nemesis began to point a direction, making the samurai wondering if it was not a real GPS or something like that.

"— I lost too many time here, got' to found my sister first, Samurai-san...

— Oï, I won't let you touch her, not even a hair strands, siscon"

At this time, Sougo was still beside his sleeping rival, he decided to keep a eye on her. Maybe because he simply didn't want to be separated of her too- but hey, he was THE super sadistic prince, he just couldn't confess it. His hands were stroking softly the young girl's hair, he could show some affectionate action. Just not directly, but since she was probably dreaming of something, it was okay. It was okay too as long as no one could see it. Well, he liked to troll the girl too, he just comprehend the situation: it was not really the time for that. His China was, amazingly, depressed. It was the first time he saw her so desperate. Oh how annoying it was, as he couldn't really help her: knowledge about Yato was foreign to him. Tears were escaping of Kagura's closed eyes, he wiped them with a small smile.

"— You're such a crybaby, China..."

His door exploded. Yeah, someone kicked the poor opening so hard that it broke into many pieces. The policeman turned around, his katana unsheathed and his ruby eyes glinting. Bastard brother was here, and no doubt to wound his little sister.

Another exit rose just under her own eyes, this time it leaded her back in the water area. There was now a mirror though, the young girl came closer to it, inspecting. Then, she saw her reflection, which wad normal, but with a blood dirtied version of her Yoshiwara's outfit. Was it the monster deep inside? To her surprise, the thing smiled, creepily.

"— Release your Yato blood," said her other self.

"— If you're me, you know I won't, and the reasons. I'm not some killer machine like them."

An insane laugh could be heard.

"— Stop joking, you are. Like every Yatos, don't bother to deny it because if you aren't then I won't be here, talking to you. Come on you've already started it! Besides, it's quite pressing since I sensed our brother here.

— What-

— Can't chit-chat, just be a good girl."

In one instant, Kagura found herself confined in the mirror, her Yato self was standing outside, waving good bye at her as she walked away in the pool of water that became blood. Kagura's vision slowly blurred, hoping that her body won't wake up. After all, she ate power sleeping pills, even if the beast was unleashed, it couldn't do anything! At least, it was what she wished: "please tabasco medicine, don't let me awaken".

Sougo was panting, his blood evading from his stomach, lips and right arm. Gintoki and Hijitaka fainted, they did most of the offensive part and sacrified themselves since he and Megane were busy defending China. He was alone now because Shinpachi also passed out, Kamui had Abuto and some other Harusame's members with him. It sucked for him seriously, if it continued, Kamui would be able to put his hands on Kagura. All the attention of the people in the room focused on the body of the girl getting up. It was impossible with this dose she should sleep for another four hours, thought Sougo, or her Yato's internal system lessened the effect greatly ?

Kagura cracked her knuckles, her face showed no mercy anymore yet it was not the mad look she wore at Yoshiwara and Yorozuya. She looked a bit more conscious of her acts, which was strange. The yato girl took out the remaining glass shards from her hands without flinching, tossing it just aside like nothing. When she observed the room filled of Harusame soldiers, she chuckled. Oh, she understood, they were only from the seventh squad, meaning only yatos. The blood thirst bewitched her entirely, adrenalin running through every parts of her body, she licked her lips. However, Sougo caught her wrist in time.

"— Snap..Out of … It China." He was obviously losing too much blood.

She did not injure him, the count of her awakening was now of three so she mastered her blood a bit better. And her brother was here, Yatos are usually less violent when there is their mate or a family member. It doesn't mean that her nature didn't scared her, no. It was even worse, frustrating, being more conscious made her feel the pleasure of killing fully, just the sight of corpses made her envy boiling.

"— Let me go, no matter what you or I do, Yatos belong to the battlefield. You won't last long in this state anyway.

— Imouto-chan, I finally got to admire your first blood awakening.

— I see what you did there, I guess I have to thank you, this time, she smirked."

The hold of Sougo wasn't enough, Kagura went away easily; jumping on a random yato soldier. Everything distorted, and there was a black out, the last picture the officer saw was his China attacking her brother, after slaying the soldier.

White. The walls were white, leading him to deduct that he was in the Shinsengumi infirmary, lying on the bed. Damn, his ribs were assassinating him, all the cuts and wounds were still fresh. Around him, many other victims resting but none included a small girl with orange hair. Danna and Hijikata were nearby, discussing, so he asked.

"— Hey, where is China? "

The demon vice command gave him a sorrowful face.

"— WHERE. FUCKING. IS. CHINA ?

— Her brother took her, we think. When the reinforcement and medics came, they were gone."

Sougo gritted his teeth, he promised that he will protect her yet she saved her. And was kidnapped by her siscon or whatever brother. He never tasted a defeat so bitter, it was such a nasty feeling invading him.

"I'll come back save you, just wait for me."
