Two days have passed since Mei and Chojuro have played those games. Mei and Ao weren't getting any luck on the person killing people. They both then left to the bridge to see Chojuro looking at the water. Ao went to him.

"Chojuro come with us to the forest. The three of us are going to have a meeting right now."

They went to the forest and Ao was talking about the murders that have been most recent showing Chojuro what Mei showed him a couple day before. Chojuro was kind of helpful but he didn't say much about who was behind all of it.

Mei looked at him in question.

"Chojuro what kind of person are we expecting to be. Would you have an idea?"

Chojuro blinked then looked at the ground.

"Hm, my guess is someone that is able to get in and out of a crowd without any problem. So they would have to be a people person and can hold a party as long as they wish. They would look at life differently than other people and live it to the fullest. Just by hearing about these deaths that are most recent I'm guessing this person might already be in the village."

Mei frowned then looked away.

"A party person, huh? That means check all bars and club houses in the village before anything else."

With that Ao and Mei left. Chojuro just stood there then he closed his eyes.

"They think the 'killer' is in the village?"

Shakumu shook his head.

"Wow and you told them major hints I guess they have to follow the rules of the game. I came to tell you that the boss is going to give the Mizukage three chances if she passes he'll leave the village alone."

Chojuro nodded then left out of the forest to the seven swordsmen manor.

That evening Chojuro found himself with Mei again but this time Mei noticed that he was acting strange so then she sat on the foot of her bed and looked at him.

"Chojuro I noticed that ever since I told you about this case you have been acting strange. Is something bothering you?"

"Nothing is bothering me."

Mei didn't buy all of it but then she noticed that there was a wooden doll in his hand. She couldn't tell what it looked like then Chojuro looked at her.

"Is something wrong?"

"I just noticed that wooden doll thing you were holding that all."

He handed the small doll to her and Mei was surprised to see that it was a small carving of her.

"Where did you get this?"

"I made it. I love to carve things."

Mei smiled at him then looked at the doll in her hand.

"You know, Chojuro, you're really amazing."

"So are you."

Mei looked up but froze to see Chojuro's face inches from hers. Chojuro came closer and kissed her. As he was kissing her he laid on top of her. As they were kissing Mei was about to open her legs to him but he kept them closed and whispered in her ear.

"We can save that for another time. I don't want to rush you."

"That's nice of you."

He lifted his head to look at her dead in the eye. Mei had a small frown when she remembered that they were trying to find the person doing all the killings but she couldn't help but want to be with Chojuro. Mei looked at Chojuro with soft eyes.

"Chojuro, would you ever keep secrets from me?"

"I would never do that. Keeping secrets is the same as lying."

Mei smiled at him and he came down to kiss her. He then stopped to give Mei a break then Mei sat up and looked at him.

"Are you and your brother close?"

"Yes, we're twins. He taught me all the games in the world and how to master them."

"What game do you two play the most?"

"The game we play the most is a combination of the Meiro puzzle and jamanji."

"What's Jamunji?"

"It's a game similar to the Meiro puzzle only it's more fun. Since my brother and I loved it we chose to put the two together and whoever wins has to say,' You failed, game over Shinigami.' to whoever they played it with."

"Wow that games sounds kind of scary."

"For starters it is, once you get the hang o the game then it's alright."

"Would you teach me that game someday?"

Chojuro stood up to leave. When he got to the doorway he looked at her.

"Of all games to play, I can't to teach you that game. That's a game you have to learn on your own. Good night Lady Mizukage."

Late night hours soon came and Chojuro was walking through the streets of the Mist village He soon stopped to see a man that was walking alone and looked at him.

"What are you doing out here, you should be sleeping."

"I'm fine for the night, but you won't be."

"What do you mean?"

The next thing the man knew a hand went through his heart and ripped it out. The man fell to the ground. Chojuro opened his eyes and looked up at the teen that did that. The teen had silver hair and dark pale green eyes. He still had the heart in his hand that looked like knives for fingers. His fingers went back to normal and he looked at the dead body.

"You failed game over shinigami."

"Meirokumu, what are you doing here?"

"Oh, the boss told me to kill this guy and to let you know that we're starting a new game to play and he wanted me to tell you that the Mizukage is first on the list. It's weird though, we never had a woman to play a game with us."

"Alright, is there anything else?"

"Yes if we manage to get her you have to pretend you're coming to save her and that's when she learns about us but her fate is based on the games she has to play."

"I understand, I guess I should tell her more about the group as long as I don't say any names."

"You've been doing a great job so good luck."

"I will, don't worry."

Meirokumu nodded then left into the shadows. Chojuro looked at the dead body and got an idea but before he left he put the logo on the body then left.

When he got to his home he went his bed and then he looked at the ceiling.

"For the first time in my life I feel like I'm in love. I wonder if I'm in love with Lady Mizukage."

He smiled then closed his eyes to sleep.
