Kagura was in Okita's room, which was actually for a while her room too, sitting on her temporary bed and thinking about what she was going to do. Tomorrow she's going to become those stupid tax-robber's spy and as a prostitute come to some criminals' base just to gain some informations about the people that they're working for who probably have some connections to joui patriots. What a deep shit! But it wasn't the worst. Being a prostitute and a risk of death if they discover her true identity was nothing compared to spending this whole time with Sadist as a person in which hands lies her own life! Just why in the hell the person that had to go with her was him?! Even this mayora-freak would be better, not much, but still… Trusting Sadist and cooperating with him was like being pushed into the deep black hole full of snakes and when they were about to kill you telling them to make friends with you and have some good times together and don't mind anything at all. It was just fucking impossible. But if she don't do it then she will lost her chance to get out of here before becoming old and wrinkled. Yeah gorilla's treatment was really expensive and her salary as shinsengumi charwoman was really low, not that she did anything to get event 100 yens.

She was fighting the mental battle. From one side there was going on a mission with Sadist and being able to pay her debt of faster and from the other side there was staying here with all this shinsengumi freaks, except Sadist and probably Yamazaki, who would dress as a woman and replace her (poor Yamazaki), for only Kami-sama knows how long. She sighed, it was really hard choice. Arrgghhh! Screw that! She thought I'm gonna do this, there's still a chance that while the mission sadist will get accidently killed and I'm not gonna overlook this. Uh-huh! There was the only one thing she forgot about, she had no idea just how long their mission would be. She automatically assumed that it can't be really long so she would withstand this few days with sadist, she never thought that it could last for one, two, maybe even three months like every other shinsengumi mission, nobody informed her about it, worried that if she knew that she wouldn't agree for such a thing. They were right, she would never agree for spending so long time with the Prince of Sadists' Planet. But as long as she was herself she didn't even gave a single thought about it and was holy convinced that it would not take a lot of time, maximally one week.

She was wondering about how it is to be a spy and how to act like a professional prostitute (yep, even if thinking how to be 'a good whore' was strange Kagura was innocent enough not to see its perverted subtext and she was going to do her job well, just to prove sadist that she was better than him and that without her he would screw this mission up) when somebody came in.

"What are you doing here, China?" blond haired man asked walking towards his bed with a wet towel on his naked torso wearing only his slacks. Droplets of water were shining on his skin reflecting the light.

For a moment Kagura couldn't look away from him but when she realized that and all the curiosity within it she quickly turned her head around blushing slightly. What was going on with her?! It's just sadist for the heaven's sake! She thought Why am I acting so… stupid?!

Her unusual behavior haven't gone unnoticed. Sadistic smirk appeared on Okita's face

"What's up? Why did you not answer my question? Is there something disturbing you from focusing your mind?" he teased her

"No way! Don't get to cocky, you bastard! Who would be distracted by you?!" she screamed at him feeling how her face is getting all red

"Woah! I never said it's because of me, China. Did you finally fall for me?" he was clearly enjoying the situation

"Shut up! There's not even the slightest chance that I would actually do such a thing, as falling for you!" she yelled pointing at him "Rather it would be you to fall for my irresistible beauty!"

"You can dream of it" he exclaimed "Who would fall for such an ugly monster like you? I bet no one will actually believe when you will say that you're one of the whores that were bought by this gang. You have a zero feminine charm in yourself"

"I have a lot of charm! I'm the beautifulest girl you have ever met!"

"The most beautiful, China, not the 'beautifulest'" he corrected with his usual indifferent voice "and certainly you are not the one"

"You want to pick a fight?! I will show you how feminine I am, uh-huh! I'm gonna be the best prostitute on this fucking world" she was talking about their job and only about being in a disguise as a prostitute, not the real one, but she was so pissed off that she didn't realized the ambiguity of her words.

Unfortunately for her Sougo did realized it and took advantage of it.

"Best prostitute, you say?" he started and slowly walked towards her "Do you even know what does it mean?" he was really close to her now and he still wasn't wearing any shirt "Maybe I should teach you about this?"

"W-what are you talking about, you sadistic freak?" she asked a little nervous

"You don't know? Then I will tell you…" he paused for a moment to make it more dramatically and leaned his head closer to her, his right hand grabbed her by the chin, his lips were dangerously close "...Just joking"

She blinked.

"What the fuck was that?!" she screamed at him, her face was entirely red

"Huh? Were you really expecting me to do some dirty things to you? Well sorry for ruining your hopes, but I'm not interested in brats" he mocked

"I'm not a brat and I wasn't hoping for anything" she shouted "Get lost, you fucking sadist!"

"Can't do. I'm too good for it, my fans would crucify Sorachi-sensei and the entire Sunrise if that happened" he deadpanned to her

"I don't care! I should kill you long time ago!" she growled and threw a fist at him aiming at his head but he managed to catch it before it could hit him

"You're too weak for that, China" he said releasing her hand from his iron grip.

He exited the room grabbing his shirt along the way and leaving her boiling from anger.

He just had to leave now or he would really show her what 'being a prostitute' means it was really hard to control himself and not to do anything to her when she was talking about such a things as it was nothing. He knew that sending her on this mission was really bad idea however one small part of him was somehow happy of it. What the hell was going on with him?!

After about twenty minutes of doing nothing Kagura's stomach rumbled and she felt that she is getting hungry. She walked outside the room and headed towards the shinsengumi lunchroom which if she remembered well was not far away and she could find the way with no problem. However she did not remember well so she got lost but eventually after about forty minutes found the place she was looking for. She was now really hungry and it was a big problem for her.

When she finally got there it was all empty and no one was inside. The quietness of this place was awkwardly uncomfortable. She walked to the window in which should be the old granny giving meals.

"Granny, are you here?" she called out but heard nothing but silence in answer. What the hell was going on?!

She was about to leave when she heard some munching and saw familiar figure sitting in the darkest corner of the lunchroom, eating mayonnaise with some unidentified food under it.

"Mayora! What are you doing here?" she asked and walked towards demon vice-commander of the shinsengumi

"Hn? Oh, it's you China girl" he said while eating "Shouldn't you be preparing for your job?"

"I'm already best prepared, uh-huh!" she exclaimed sitting beside him "Don't think of me as one of your stupid fellows who are claiming to spend all their time to get 'well prepared for a mission' while they're actually doing watching some porn hidden under their beds. Now, give me some food mayora"

"Huh?! What the fuck was this all about, you did nothing to get prepared and you just wanted some food?!" he shouted "And who told you about dirty things like that?! Do you even know what porn is?!"

"Humpf! Of course I know, Gin-chan told me about everything!"

"I should arrest this lazy shit of a man for demoralizing kids" he murmured

"Don't say such a things about Gin-chan!" she screamed "and give me some food, already!"

There was a long silence before Hijikata spoke

"Tsk. I guess I have no choice then" he said and gave her the bowl full of mayonnaise "Here's your food China girl, no need for you to give me thanks" he said with a stupid smile

…

"What is this?" she deadpanned "You want to poison me with this hideous food, you mayo-freak?" with this statement her face got darker

"Don't insult the mayonnaise!" he screamed at her trying to ignore the dark aura behind her "Good, if you don't want it, there will be more for me. Honestly you're just like Sougo" he muttered to himself

Unfortunately for him Kagura heard that and her aura become even scarier, like the gates of hell has opened and were trying to annihilate every piece of light in this room and suck in Hijikata's soul. He shivered.

"Don't. Compare. Me. To. This. Sadist" she said like every word was a separate sentence "I'm one hundred times better than him! Uh-huh!" she yelled furiously "Humpf! I'm leaving! You should get poisoned by eating this mayonnaise already!" she added and got out of the room.

Her footsteps echoed in the quiet area. Hijikata was sitting thrilled with a spoon of mayonnaise in his mouth frozen. She really is like Sougo, he thought and continued eating.

About thirty minutes later Kagura got back to her room (yep, she got lost on her way back too). She opened the door and froze in threshold with a mixture of disgust and horror on her face. There she was, standing before Sadist who was wearing his usual expressionless mask and brown-haired girl, only in her underwear (which was actually bright red and sexy), who was sitting on his lap and claiming to him. He himself looked like he didn't give a fuck about this girl but she instead was looking at him with adoration in her eyes. Kagura saw a whip and a dog collar lying next to them. She knew well from Gin-chan and some shoujo manga that she read what it meant when man and women were alone only in their underwear (though Sadist was fully clothed), however she couldn't believe that someone could actually want to do it with him. It was gross.

"Sorry for interrupting you" she said with a hollow voice, she totally forgot that it was his room too. She turned around and closed the door still in shock.

She was feeling strange. She was slightly angry but she didn't know at who. At Sadist? At this girl? Or at herself? The answer was surly: Sadist. She convinced herself. There was no way for her to be angry at this poor insane girl, who by her own will (or no) revealed herself for the mercy of this Sadist. She probably was brainwashed or something so she didn't know what she's doing. And why the hell should she be angry at herself?! For what? For coming inside the room in such a moment? For thinking about what she saw there? No way! Why was she even thinking about it, anyway? It was none of her business, she didn't care about Sadist and his sadistic relationships with some brainwashed M girls (cuz there was no other explanation for this situation, no normal girl would do such a thing with him). Somehow this situation really pissed her off. But when she thought about it again, why was she even angry at him? She didn't care about what was he doing and with who he was doing this. This was just ridiculous? Why couldn't she forgot about what she saw? Why was the picture of Sadist with other girl still in her mind? And why was she feeling irritated because of it? This didn't make any sense! Spending so much time with those tax-robbers was really bad for her mind.

Suddenly she realized that she's still standing before the door to her and Sadist's room. She was about to walk away from there when the door opened.

It was this M girl who was doing dirty things with Sadist. Now she was fully dressed, she wore black mini dress and navy blue jacket. Her eyes were green and her skin was quite pale, but not as pale as Yato's. She was looking a bit angry and frustrated but Kagura didn't know why.

"Oh, you're still here" she said realizing the person before her, the girl's voice was rough. Kagura got an impression that somehow she made her even more angry and she had no idea how did this happen "Why are standing here?! Hurry up and get in, your fucking boyfriend is waiting!"

"Huh?!" Kagura blinked "You mean Sadist?!" she couldn't believe. Did this person just called him her fucking BOYFRIEND?!

"I mean the blond-haired shinsengumi officer with reddish orbs who just a moment ago called me a bitch and told me to go away! And it's all your fault!" she screamed at her with tears gathering in her eyes

What the fuck was going on?! Kagura was in heavy shock. Was it some kind of joke?!

"He's not my boyfriend and why the hell it would be my fault that he showed you his real sadistic face?! It's not because of me that he is a motherfucking bastard!" she yelled in response. This crazy, hysterical girl was blaming her for everything, even though she had nothing to do with this!

"Huh? So you are not a pair?" she asked surprised and wiped her tears away

"No! And we never were and never will be! Who the hell told you such a thing!" Kagura exclaimed with all her might

"Oh, no one. It's just- I just thought that you are his girlfriend because of the way he reacted when you appeared. At first he was kind and gentle but then you came in and... and he changed so much… he was so rude and he insulted me… he… he told me that he didn't care about me and that… that I'm just some stupid bitch and…" she started to cry again

Kagura looked stunned at the woman. She was surely insane, she decided. Was it really Sadist who she was talking about, cuz if so he didn't give a mind fuck about her, how could he…? No, he probably was rude from the beginning but the girl just didn't realized it. Yeah, it was surely like that, uh-huh!

"Well, he said he don't care about me, so I'm leaving" the girl said with slightly trembling voice and passed Kagura heading to the exit.

It took a moment for Kagura to understood what the heck has just happened, but even if she knew it already some facts just didn't make any sense. She walked slowly inside the room.

Sadist was lying on the ground with his red mask on his eyes

"Oi, Sadist, you dead?" Kagura asked and touched his motionless body by her foot.

It was a wrong idea to do it. The hand grabbed her ankle that she lost her balance and fell down.

"Ouch! What the hell was that?!" she screamed

"Hm?" He mumbled while taking off his mask "Oh, it's just you China"

"What do you mean by just me?!" she exclaimed furiously "And why are you so surprised by this?! It's my room too, you know?!"

"Wrong" he deadpanned "It's my and only my room, you are just a guest here, unless you want to sleep with me forever"

"What the hell are you talking about?!" she yelled "It is not my fault that only your room had a free bed in it because nobody wants to share it with you! And I'm not surprised why! Who would want to come in his room and see his roommate playing some S&M games with half naked girl?!"

"Oh, so you have a problem with me playing with girls? Are you jealous China?" he mocked her

"Jealous?! Me?! You wish!"

"Who would wish for such a thing?"

"I bet you're so lonely that you actually paid her for entertaining you" she totally ignored his last statement

"I didn't pay her for this, China" he said blankly "and why are you still talking about this?"

"I'm not talking about anything!" she screamed "It's late. I'm going to bed, goodnight Sadist!" in her voice was so much venom that she clearly didn't wish him any good night "I'm going to do this shitty job of yours from tomorrow and I want to get enough sleep not to act like some zombie-prostitute, so be quiet!"

She closed her eyes and covered herself with a blanket trying to focus on sleeping when she felt someone's body next to her and an arm wrapping around her waist. She opened her eyes suddenly and turned around just to meet this sadist's face only millimeters away from hers.

"What the fuck are you doing here Sadist?! It's my bed" she exclaimed

"I'm practicing" he explained dully

"What?!" she screamed at him and was about to say something about molesting young, innocent girls when he pressed his lips to hers, closing it in a long and deep kiss.

His lips on hers, his arm around her waist, his body pressed really close to her own. Her eyes widened in shock. She felt hot, she couldn't breathe. What the hell was going on?!

She jerked away from him and panting heavily she tried to stand up but he was faster then she thought. He locked her in an iron grip and whispered to her ear

"What's up China, wasn't that good?"

She felt her face getting red

"No! Why would it?!" she yelled "Fuck off you perverted Sadist! Let me go!"

"I'm afraid I can't do it" he deadpanned "But I'm doing it for you, you should be grateful"

"Grateful?! For what?! I should be grateful to you because you tried to rape me?!"

"You better get used to it. Cuz you know, from tomorrow you're going to become my own bitch"

"I'm not becoming your bitch! Or any bitch at all! It's just a disguise!"

"And what do you think you'll do there? You should act like a normal whore if you don't want to screw this up. That means you will have to entertain men. How are you going to do it if you're so anxious about one little kiss?" he deadpanned to her hiding all the fucking emotions that he felt when thinking about China entertaining other men. He wasn't even sure why he felt them, but recently he realized that somehow he can't think of China like before anymore and hearing her saying stuff like 'I'll be a prostitute' was just too much for him. He had to do something with this attitude of hers or else who knows what may happen in the future.

"I'm not anxious" she exclaimed "Why should I be?! It's just you, Sadist. Uh-huh!" In fact she tried to convince herself that it was JUST Sadist but she wasn't sure about it anymore. She couldn't focus on anything.

"Ow, that hurts, China. You're breaking poor policeman's heart" he teased her, but in fact he wasn't really missing the truth

"Shut up and let go of me already!"

"What if I say no?"

"Then… I will scream out loud that you're molesting me and you will have to commit seppuku" that was really weak argument but she couldn't come up with anything better

"Do you really want me to die that badly?" he asked half-joking but deep inside hoping for her to say 'no'. However what he actually heard was quite different and a bit painful too

"Yes! How come you didn't get it before, I guess you're really dumb, Sadist"

"If I'm dumb then you have to be brainless" he replied with his usual emotionless voice, he was really good at hiding his feelings, especially when it came to China

"Shut up!" she yelled

"Weren't you tired, China?" he asked changing the topic "Why don't we sleep, then?"

"How am I supposed to sleep with you in my bed?! And what the hell was with this 'we'?!"

"That's not my problem" he said blankly ignoring the last part of her statement and wrapped around her tighter making any moves impossible "Ja, I will be sleeping, now. Sweet dreams China"

"Are you kidding me! Get out! Oi, Sadist, I'm talking to you! Let me go!" she was shouting and yelling at him but he wasn't listening "I know you are not sleeping!"

This was going to be a really long night.

Hiii!

In next chapter Kagura and Okita will go on their mission to infiltrate the gang! Hmmm I wonder what will happen to them... though I should know it, it's my fanfic after all. Heh, nevermind

Please review!
