Finally the day came, we got to go to Hiko castle. We had to make sure I didn't turn into Ichiro again. Kojuro hung around me like a hawk, not letting me out of his sight for even a minute and I was getting really annoyed but didn't show it. Yukimura was acting weird, when I would walk in into the room, he would look away or leave the room. Motochika took it upon himself to make sure I had fun and Sasuke would join in, until Motonari hit Motochika with a leek, which I still don't know were he got it from. Shingen just watched the younger generation have there fun and join in every once in awhile. After staying a week in Sendai, we went to where Aki use to be. So after a long plane ride and walking to the middle of nowhere, well not exactly nowhere, there were paved roads. we came across a dirt path and walked half a mile to the gate of the castle.

"What took you guy so long?" said a annoyed voice, which I knew was Masamune, coming from the shadows.

"Oh, come on one eye dragon you weren't that bored." said another voice, Keiji emerged from the shadows with a smile on his face.

"That's because you wouldn't shut up!" Masamune snapped, coming out of the shadows too. The seven of us stared at the bickering duo, well Masamune was doing the bickering. Keiji stopped talking and turned his head to the gate. "There is no way in."

"Are you sure?" asked Yukimura.

"Well... There is a way in but Haley might be the only one to figure it out." said Keiji. I looked at the walls of the castle, in the picture of the castle it showed it had carvings in it, but when I am looking at it now it has no carvings. I took my backpack off my back and started to look though it for my camera.

"What are you doing Haley-chan?" asked Motochika.

"I am looking for my camera. The picture of the wall on the computer had carvings in it. So if I take a picture of the wall they might show up again."

"That is a every smart idea." Shingen commented. I found my camera, turned it on, and pointed it at each side of the wall. I looked thought the pictures, the only one that had carvings in it was the one on the left side of the gate. The carvings were written in kanji. So I handed my camera to Kojuro.

"It says...The moon shall rise and the sun will never come again." There was a click and we all looked up as the doors opened slowly in a eerie way.

"That's creepy." I said. Yukimura and Sasuke agreed with me. We walked to the gate and went right though. Nothing bad happened, so we continued up the castle steps and pushed open the heavy door. The entryway to the castle was huge, there was tapestries hanging on the wall with the Hiko clan symbol, which was a moon with tentacles coming out of it.

"I've never liked there symbol." said Motonari.

"Is it because it is not the sun." Motochika said, Motonari glared at him out of the corner of his eye.

"We should split up into group." said Keiji.

"I am going with Kojuro and Haley." Masamune said. How did he know I wanted to go with Kojuro? Maybe I wanted to go with somebody else. Except I really didn't have a choice because Kojuro was already had a grip on me.

"I guess we get Keiji." said Motochika.

"Okay...We all have cell phone so call if there is trouble or you find something." Sasuke said. Yukimura looked mad that I wasn't with them. Kojuro and Masamune went though a door on the right and I followed them. The door lead us to a hallway with a set of stairs at the end and doors on either side. Masamune opened the first door which was full of creates. He closed it and we continued down the hallway not opening any more. We made it to the stairs which didn't look safe, some of the steps were caved in and some almost ready to.

"I'll go up first." said Kojuro and went up then stairs. Masamune and I stayed at the bottom.

"Haley?"

"Hmmm?"

"Are you and Kojuro going out?"

"NO." He smiled at me. "I don't know what our relationship is." Masamune stared up the stairs.

"Okay...What is our relationship?"

"I don't know yet. I only met you a few times. What do you think it is?" He smirked and swung his arm over my shoulders.

"To me you are my little sister." Little sister? Not that I minded because I always wanted a brother. We heard a noise at the top of the stairs, we both looked up. Nothing came down but it sounded like a huge crack. "You all right Kojuro!" There was no response, Masamune looked at me. "You go up first Haley." I nodded and put my foot on the first step, there was a creak and then I continued up skipping the broken steps. Masamune was right behind me. Once we reached the top Kojuro was nowhere in sight.

"Did he go though the floor?" wondered Masamune. He looked around, then stepped forward and the floor opened up. "What th-" Masamune fell down but grabbed the edge of the floor. I was going to help him but he shouted at me to stay back. Then the floor started to close and Masamune lost his grip and I was left alone.
