After their little talk, Captain Turner offered the six idiots (he now for sure recognized them as simply idiots) a room service, where they could spend the night, instead of those dirty cells back at the dungeons. Neither Erwin or Levi complied at his proposal; Erwin because he felt shame for them, and Levi simply because he wouldn't want to be near them, especially having dirt from head to toe like pigs. He didn't like them at all, especially that stubborn perm-head bastard who dared to look down at him, as if he was just a bug. He also remembered that glasses guy who would be whining at every single stupid thing they said; what the hell was that brat's problem, anyway? Erwin would just shrugged it off as if it didn't annoy him. Maybe because it didn´t, and actually saw them as funny and interesting characters.
The night passed heavy and heated, and it was finally morning. Hijikata was the first one to wake up and, after stretching his muscles, he woke Kondo and Sougo. The latter would just give up to his placid dream-land, anytime he could, protected from the outside with his colorful mask. They then woke the Yorozuya. Shinpachi wasn't a problem at all, because after all, he was the straight guy from them all, and the only one with some hint of housewife's skills. Kagura and Gintoki were another case. They all (not included Sougo, who had sneaked away from them, and was sleeping at a corner) struggled to get them the hell up, gaining in exchange several bruises and punches from Kagura. Finally, they opted to just destroy the beds so they woudn't have any other comfortable place to sleep. They woke up in response, but then they remembered they were basically prisoners, and that they had just destroyed part of their property. Crap.
"Nice. We've just awoken, and we are already having problems," Hijikata cursed under his breath, kicking a piece of wood wich was casually hanging from the bed in an awkward position.
"Yeah, well done guys, you all need a medal for your foolishness. I would recommend you to go out and ask those retarded giants one. I know they'll be pleased with your retarded presence," Gintoki said abhorred, with a tired Kagura hanging from his back, just like a monkey.
"Emm, you guys remember what Turner-san told us yesterday, don't you? He's going to appear at any time," Kondo reminded them.
"Yeah, you're right. This is going to be a shitty day, argh," Hijikata said, lighting up a cigarette.
Gintoki looked at him with disgust. "How can you smoke so early in the morning!? You're going to have some hell of lungs problems, you idiot!"
Hijikata vein-popped. "I don't want to hear that from the suggar-freak who'll get diabetes at any time."
"Oi, oi, just calm down. We don't have time for this," Shinpachi calmly stepped between the two.
"Tch," both of them cursed under their teeth, though they reluctantly came to a stop.
"Toshi, Gintoki, you two need to stop fighting over stupid things, since we somehow represent a threat to this guys who mean serious business, and we have to show them we're not enemies. Also, they don't seem to be very tolerant. You've already seen the shorty with the cut-bangs," Kondo told them, crossing his arms.
"I agree with Kondo-san, Hijikata-san. Even though I'd love to see you get executed by this people, I don't want to risk our lives, just because they think we're as miserable as you," Sougo said, sitting on the floor in the corner.
"You're not helping at all, Okita-san!" Shinpachi scolded him, seeing the killing intent Hijikata was emaning.
All of sudden, the door was open in a loud, yet careful way. Captain Turner appeared in the room and glanced at them. And then he saw what was left of the beds.
"What. The Hell. Happened?" he asked in a low voice, glaring at them dangerously.
They all looked down in shame, avoiding the captain's deadly glare.
"You see... Turner-san, we kinda destroy it accidentaly, em... because..." Shinpachi started saying, and didn't quite know how to finish. Gintoki, who sensed Shinpachi's problem, finished the sentence.
"Kagura turned into a wild beast in her sleeping and started punching everything like King Kong," he blurted out.
"OIIII! DON'T YOU DARE DRAG ME OUT AS THE TROUBLE MAKER, YOU BASTARD!" Kagura yelled, forcing her fists at his direction.
"Danna's right. We fortunately succed at stoping the King Kong within her," Sougo stepped in.
"DON'T LISTEN TO THEM, TURNER-SAN! I WAS SLEEPING WHEN THOSE IDIOTS SHATTERED THE BED INTO PIECES. I SWEAR I'M INNOCENT!" the King Kong shifter told the captain.
The latter, who simply stood there while they were constantly attacking each other in a verbal and meaningless fight, rubbed his temples, sensing a very terrible headache coming. "If they keep like this, I might just kill them before the trial," he thought, meaning it.
"OH GODDAMIT! JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!" he finally snapped, in a fit of anger.
Miraculously they all shut up, though the captain still felt the throbbing tick mark on his head, wich was beating painfully.
"We'll discuss about that shitty bed later, now we all need to get going to the court. Or is it that you forgot you're prisoners, uh? Now stop acting like fucking circus monkeys, and go there to prove Darius you're innocents. Or that at least you don't represent a menace for us!" he told them, as he indicated them to follow him.
The inhabitants of Edo followed him from behind, immersed in an awkward silence. The road didn't last long, though, and fortunately they didn't meet anyone in the way. Except some weird trainees who looked at them with wide eyes as if they were aliens or something. The idiots didn't even bother in hiding their shock. The annoyed inhabitants from Edo returned to them a face of their own, wich casted pure boredom. Some of them, like the bald short guy, the one with the green eyes, the girl with the pigtail, and the horseface, winced. Other just stared at them blankly. Like the girl who seemed to be the only japanese in there, besides them.
"We're finally here," the captain sighed, and looked at them. "Remember this'll be like an interrogation. Like when you talked to Erwin, okay? So don't panick," he told them, before getting in into his seat.
They remained standing there, looking at the door by which their guide stepped in.
"...Who's Erwin, anyway?" Gintoki said all of sudden. The others simply shrugged and walked through the door.
What greeted them in there was quite a sight. The court was actually immensed, as the ones they've only seen on TV. They curiously felt as if they were about to speak at the ONU, or some big shit like that. People who looked like serious politicians were sitting on the stands, and they were all looking at them down with hateful expressions. The only ones they could recognized were Luis and Romina who were looking down at them with stupid grins (Also Luis was held ing his thumbs up), and the three weirdoes they'd met back at the dungeons. The inhabitants of Edo felt uneasy all of sudden and started sweating bullets.
"IS THIS REALLY JUST A FUCKING INTERROGATIOOOOOOOON?!" they all comically thought, looking down at their feet with their faces shadowened by some strands of hair.
"Please procced," a deep voice echoed in the spacious room, wich they assumed was from that Darius Zackly old dude who was supposed to be as important and reckless as all the Yakuza's leaders all together.
They followed his indication and walked awkwardly forward, where six chairs were casually waiting for them. They sat at the same time, and all of sudden the room felt terribly cold. They all could actually sweared they saw a gloomy atmosphere surrounding the six.
The judge clearly his throat, already sensing those strangers characters were going to be a pain.
"Let's start."
