Chapter 3:
-So you had another dream? - Kyoshiro looked worried.
-Yes. - Kyoshiro, Sakuya and Yuya were sitting around a table drinking some tea. - I had few of them. In one I see Yuya-san running towards a battlefield and slashing everything in her way; in another, I see you protecting him and getting injured badly, and in the last one…well, I think it is pretty personal, so better I do not mention it.-said Sakuya smirking with a little blush on her cheeks.
-Okay, first who is ``him´´?-said Yuya organizing her thoughts.
-Ah, he is Kyo.
-Kyo?!-Kyoshiro exclaimed surprised.
-And why would I protect someone I don't even know?-asked Yuya.
-Well…Umm…- Sakuya blushed again. - You will see.
-Um, whatever. But do you know for what I'm here?
-Not exactly. But I think you came here to help Kyo, that's what you do all the time on my dreams.
-Really, who is that Kyo?
-He is a lord of a land quite far from here.
-A lord?-Yuya sighed. - I need some time to think. I will go on a walk.
Yuya came out of the house and walked into the forest. She needed to organize her ideas. First, she had traveled back in time to Edo; second, she had lost Nozomu; third, according Sakuya's dreams, Sakuya was some sort of priestess who could see the future, she was there to help someone called Kyo. Now she would believe anything as long as her situation made some sense. Okay, now she had to think to what to do. She had to search for his little brother and then look for that guy to get out of there. She walked back to Sakuya and Kyoshiro's house; they said they would let her stay for the night.
-Are you now better?-Kyoshiro just came out when she was arriving to the house.
-Well, yeah. Is just… everything… is just crazy! - Kyoshiro laughed.
-I know what you mean. If someone gets involved with Kyo, Sakuya,... Your life will be totally messed up, but you will have fun.
-Have fun?
-Well, I think the times when I was with Kyo and everyone it was the happiest. But I'm already happy just being with Sakuya! – Said Kyoshiro blushing at his statement, Yuya chuckled.
-Were you guys friends?
-Yes, well, for me he is like my best friend and greatest rival. But if he heard me calling him my best friend, I would be dead! - Kyoshiro laughed. Then they heard Sakuya calling for them and they entered in the house.
The next morning…
-I really have to dress like this?-Yuya complained.
-Well, with your clothes you really stand out. Also you could have worn a kosode (A kimono from the Edo period), but you chose male clothing.
-It's easier to move.
Yuya was dressed as a man, she used some bandages to wrap her bust (she didn't understand why Sakuya insisted in her not wearing her bra, she suspected she might wanted for herself…) and she tied her hair on a lousy ponytail. With the male clothes she looked like some young boy with a beautiful girly-face.
-Now, you just look like in my dreams.-said Sakuya smiling. - Also you carried two katanas with you, let's go and buy them on town.
-Two real katanas?!- said Yuya excited.
They went down to town and bought two katanas for her, she happily put them on her waist. While she was walking through the town she couldn't get off the feeling that someone was staring at her so she asked.
-Hey, I don't know why, but I feel someone staring me.
-That's because they are staring at you!-said Kyoshiro.
-Eh, really? Who? - Yuya turned around to look.
-All males and females in the town.-laughed Sakuya and Kyoshiro.
-Eh? Why? - They laughed again, she had no self-awareness.
She was really eye-catching regardless she was female or male. With a very rare blonde hair, pretty face and two emerald green beautiful eyes surrounded by ebony eyelashes. Without doubt people stared at her when she passed by.
Where the poor Nozomu is…
He was sitting straight like a statue, without moving a muscle, he didn't dare. Under the gaze of two ruby eyes to stand still was actually worth of praising, he was very brave for a kid, when almost all kid who saw those eyes started to cry immediately. In the demon's face a smirk appeared acknowledging the kid's bravery. Then he turned to the bandana guy who was next to the kid.
-So?
-So?-Asked the bandana guy without understanding. The demon glared at him losing his patience. - Ah, you mean the kid! I found him lost somewhere looking for his sister, and I thought that he could be your servant for a while so he could collect some money and look for his sister.
-An idiot like you came up with that? - The demon raised his eyebrow.
-No, Mahiro did.
-What can you do brat?-The demon turned to Nozomu.
-I-I can do chores and my nee-chan showed me some fighting.-said Nozomu trembling.
-If you can do all that, then bring me some sake, brat. - The demon commanded. Nozomu,the demon's new servant, with Mahiro went for the sake as he was ordered.

And what will happen to Nozomu?Will he anger the demon and get himself killed or not?
