This one will be a bit more serious than the last, with a serious hint of romance.

Please R&R

2) Mist

The quiet drip of water soon became a shower, the grey clouds dulling the colours around, the sheets of water blurring shapes.

The rain at this time of year was worth watching, it always was. But Kojuurou was not watching the rain; his attention was on his master, who was currently asleep, worn out from the exertions of a sparring match with his eternal rival Yukimura Sanada.

The Dragon's Right-Eye was glad his master had found such a worthy rival, but at the same time he could not help but feel a pang of jealousy.

It was strange really, every time Masamune took a step forwards he seemed to move further away from him, and the mess of emotions this triggered in Kojuurou was beginning to take its toll on him.

The morning mist after the rain covered the land, waiting for the sun to burn through. Dew soaked into everything, and all the noises seemed muffled as people began to stir.

In the courtyard Masamune was preparing for a long journey, and Kojuurou was remaining behind.

The mist stirred and shifted as the two men walked to the stables.

"I need you to remain here in case someone decides to pay us an unwanted visit while I'm away."

"Masamune-Sama..."

"Kojuurou, please, I need you to stay, so I have someone to come back to, you see?"

Kojuurou smiled and nodded, nothing more needed to be said now, and the storm in his heart was calm again.

He watched Masamune ride off into the mist, the sunlight just catching on his helmet.

"Be careful...Masamune-Sama."
