SailorStar9: With Chapter 2 uploaded, this is Chapter 3 of this fic. And yeah, the Zen/Bunko romance is slow going. For everyone who put this fic on your favorited and followed lists and/or story alerts, thank you, but remember everyone, a lot of authors (myself included) sustain on readers' reviews.

Chapter 3: Return To Yakuzen Hall
In the meeting hall of the Yakuzen Hall...
It had been three days since Zen brought the unconscious Bunko back to heal and the Yakushi Clan head summoned his heir for a meeting.
"Father." Zen bowed to the Clan Head.
"Zen." the sickly Clan Head returned the greeting. "I've heard about our... current patient. Then, it is true that she is..."
"The new Genbu Miko." Zen confirmed.
"Zen," the Clan Head looked up from his tea cup. "Does the word 'Tsurukame' mean anything to you?"
"The Tortoise and the Crane?" Zen frowned. "What does it... Father, you don't mean..." he realized what his father was implying.
"The human girl, the new Genbu Miko, she might very well be the salvation of the Yakushi Clan." the Clan Head concluded.
In her room...
Bunko snapped awake and sat up on the borrowed futon. Looking down, she found herself out of her striped kimono and in a loaned nagajuban.
Not really thinking of what had happened after the visit to the cemetery and who had changed her, Bunko's mind was, instead, focused on the Yokai attack that occurred in the cemetery and what was revealed afterwards.
Pulling her knees to her chest, she broke down into muted sobs.
SailorStar9: So, thoughts, reviews, anyone?
