Water Serenity Ch.3
I woke up to find myself on the ground, I was cold and my whole body was aching. I hoped that Nobuko was alright. I ran to where I ran to see Uruki, Tomite, Takiko, and some other person but I was guessing he was part of the Genbu Seishis.
Then there was a burst of wind that was heading toward the ceiling. I looked up to see some sort of person with strange outfit as well but mostly his face. Before I knew it the guy did the same attack as Uruki! Is that even possible? I guess it is now.
Just when Takiko was about to be hit I came and hit him right in the stomach by throwing my arm blade. "Who?" Said the guy with the weird X thing on his face. "Mizuno-chan!" Takiko said looking at me. "Tch. I missed, I won't this time. If you know what's good for you, I would leave." I gave the guy my evil face.
The guy wasn't even scared one bit. I guess I had no choice; I took out my gun that I kept strapped on my leg and aimed. I aimed for his arm and a loud noise was heard through the temple. After I shot it, the guy left. (muhaha! Surprised you guys didn't I?)
Tomite was hurt badly, I didn't have my stuff with me at the moment, they were in the temple. Just when I was going in to get Nobuko was right there with her stuff and mine. I hugged and thanked for once for her amazing instincts.
Uruki's bodyguard came out of nowhere and helped Uruki stand. His name was Souren. We took shelter and Tomite told us what happened. I looked at Hatsui and he looked at me. I went by him and hugged him.
"Mizuno-san?" Hatsui said hugging me back while he was saying it he hiccupping as well.
"…I know what it's like to lose someone close to you. My parents died due to a sea accident, and I was at home and I couldn't do anything to help them." I started to hug him harder. "But you know, I'm sure that Fen-san wouldn't want to see you like this, Hatsui." I smiled at him, but I felt tears coming down my face.
"Mizuno-san!" He hugged me harder and cried a lot more. Then Nobuko patted my shoulder telling me that she'll be with me no matter what. I just smiled. Then Tomite talked about the journey a bit, then Takiko was gone. I stayed with Nobuko in the cave since she was cold.
The next morning, Souren told us that Uruki was a prince! I couldn't believe it! No wonder I felt like he was a unique person. He told us all about what happened to him when he was little, I can relate, both my parents died and I couldn't do anything to stop it.
Souren started to plead to Takiko to summon Genbu.
Uruki came out of the cave and was obviously pissed. "That's enough! Don't say such unnecessary things…!" Then he seemed in a lot of pain and went the opposite direction even though he was injured. He wanted to be alone for a bit is what he told Souren and went off.
Takiko was depressed but Hatsui gave him some edible grass and give it to Uruki and went to go see him. "Where's my share?" Tomite was bullying him in the meanwhile. "Tomite, stop bullying poor Hatsui." Nobuko said pulling him away and hugging him close. "Pfft. What are you? A mother?" Uh-oh! Tomite, now've you done it.
"What did you just say?" Then she was about to attack him but he blocked her by putting his hand on her wrist. "Let go!" "No way!" "Eh?" I could've sworn right there and then, he was blushing. I was pissed! How could he, Nobuko is supposed to be all mine! (Whoops Yuri moment! XD)
"Let go of Nobuko, you brute!" I knocked him in the head with my elbow, he should be lucky that I didn't put my shoulder blades on or he would be dead! "What did you do that for? And calling me a brute is too mean!" Tomite says rubbing his head. "Mizuno, you went a little too far, you shouldn't hit an injured person no matter what happens." Nobuko says while getting the band aids she found. Well whatever, I don't want that brute taking my only family.
"Murderous intent!" I looked up to hear Souren and gripping his sword. "The enemy is nearby!" I got my elbow blades ready to fight. Time to kill some people. I went ahead of them and saw a huge amount of people coming my way. I managed to kill a few but the rest were killed by Hatsui. I looked at the dead solders that were killed by Hatsui's needles, he did a really good job but I was close of getting hit by one.
I went back to the rest of them. "Is everyone okay?" They saw me and I patted Hatsui's head for a well done job. "Good job, Hatsui. Thanks for protecting for Nobuko." I smiled thinking on how he would make a good man someday. Hatsui smiled back at me. "That's right; Souren-san, Takiko and him are….huh? Souren-san?" Tomite said looking around. He disappeared while we weren't looking; he is very hard to really talk to.
We decided to go look for Takiko and Rimudo. For some reason, we found Takiko but Rimudo looked at me before leaving and disappeared just like the wind. Takiko looked at where he originally was but he was no longer there. I can tell that she loves him, even if she doesn't realize it yet, her back gives that sign that indeed she's in love with Uruki.
A/N: I'm sorta sad that no one has commented on my story yet, I mean I know not a lot of people don't read Fushigi Yuugi Genbu Kaiden but I was hoping just one person would comment on my story, oh well, please comment, please?
