Okita Souga was bored. Really bored.
Everyone in Edo was panicking because of Ketsuno Ana's sudden news, so there wasn't anything he can do. "Maybe I can arrest everyone…" Okita fumbled with the hilt of his katana. It seemed like an interesting idea, but it was too much of a hassle to arrest them. "Ugh." He grumbled in frustration. It was supposed to be the "last day" of earth, but nothing memorable or interesting has happened.
He thought of countless amounts of things he could do, such as kill Hijikata in his sleep. But that could be done in the last hour or so, so he removed that idea from his head.
Okita's face frowned in annoyance and many of the citizens rushing past him gaped at his face. Okita Sougo was the well-known 1st Division Captain of the Shinsengumi. He was known for his elite swordsmanship and his merciless nature, so people were terrified of him.
"So damn bored…" He pushed through the people and continued to complain about his own boredom. However, couple of meters away, he saw a familiar figure. The figure was carrying a large purple parasol, so it was not hard to guess who it was.
Excitement spread across his body as he spotted his rival. He had not seen her for over a year because she was busy traveling with her father, Umibouzu. Okita Sougo could not be any happier at the fact that his rival was finally back at Edo.
"Oi, China!" Okita shook away the idiotic look on his face and called out to the female Yato. At the call of her name, Kagura turned around and faced Okita.
When she turned around, he could not believe the change. The gluttonous girl he knew disappeared. She grew out of the red cheongsam she always wore and replaced it with a slim white cheongsam with red flowers decorated at the bottom. Her body developed into a young mature woman, and she did not look like the girl he knew. What happened to her… Okita was comparing the changes, and truthfully, he was extremely shocked at how that monstrous girl turned out to be.
"Hey, sadist. Long time no see. I thought you died at your stupid tax robber job, aru." Okita's praise for her change has shattered. Even though she has improved physically, she still had a foul mouth.
"Now, now. Don't hurt the police's feelings." Okita shrugged away her harsh words. "Didn't you miss me, China? Haven't seen you for so long."
"Che. Why the hell would I miss a sadist like you, aru?" Kagura rolled her azure eyes. "I would rather miss Gorilla than you."
Ouch. Okita winced at her words. She's joking, right? She had to miss me…right?
"Don't lie to me, China. I am pretty sure you missed having those heated afternoons with me."
"D-don't make it sound so dirty!" Kagura's face flushed in deep red.
The Shinsengumi Captain amusingly watcher her reaction. Ooh? She knows how to make a face like that, huh. "Well what's there to be embarrassed about when we already did it? In the park, in Yorozuya Office, in Shinsengumi Compound…"
"Stop it, aru!" Before Okita could continue teasing her, a quick punch flew towards his face.
"Calm down, China." He nearly dodged it and placed some distance between her. "Geesh, I was just playing."
"Well, boo hoo. Your joke isn't even funny." Kagura stuck out her tongue and intensely glared at him.
"Don't worry. No one would suspect we did anything except fight. That's what we always did." Okita shrugged.
"Hmph. Whatever, aru." The female Yato was still embarrassed at the loud statement her rival had made. After all, it made it sound like their relationship was special. "Anyway, what is the prince of sadist doing here? Stealing people's money, aru?"
"Che." Okita always loved Kagura's rude and snarky comments. She always struggled to have the last word with her immaturity, and it was very amusing. "Of course not. What type of person do you think I am?" He chuckled at her. "I'm just here because I was so bored. The whole Apocalypse thing is driving everyone crazy, and I needed something interesting to do."
"Oh?" Kagura understood Okita's feelings. After all, everyone at Yorozuya ran out like an idiot believing this Apocalypse. "Same, aru. Gin-chan and Megane ran out like bunch of idiots. I was bored, so I was walking around the streets to see more idiots."
"Yeah…" People around them were still frantically running around. The streets were getting chaotic, and it was getting annoying for Kagura and Okita. "Hey, China." Suddenly, he knew what he wanted to do. He knew what could make the Apocalypse 'memorable and interesting'. After all, anything that has to do with her was always fun and thrilling. This is brilliant.
"What." Kagura was still annoyed at the people around her. She wanted to push them all away (she could do it), but she knew that it would cause too much casualties.
"Let's make a bet. A bet to see who triumph over who in the last twelve hours." Okita smirked. He knew that Kagura would never back down from a challenge, and she was slowly entangling herself in his plan. This will be so much fun.
