Thanks everyone for all your wonderful reviews!

(MUGEN'S pov)


"Where could he have gone?" Fuu cried stopping to take a breath.

We had been searching for Jin for almost an hour now.

Fuu stood before me bending down her hands on her knees and her wet hair

in her face.She was breathing hard.

I stood there watching her.I knew exactly where Jin was after reading the

letter and I dont know why I had agreed to come with her.He ddint want her

to follow this was his fight.

I guess no matter how much I didnt want to admit it even if only to myself

I was a bit jealous.I couldnt help but wonder if it had been me would she

be so concerned.I had thought back to when we had went to my island that time and

she was there but some how that was diffrent.

Fuu was a caring person she would be there for anyone that didnt mean she

had feelings for them.

And so what why should I care.

"Why dont you just forget,didnt he say he didnt wanna be followed?"I said raising my arm to the

back of my head.

Fuu stood up and turned to look at me."Do you want Jin to die?" she asked queitly.

I sighed and looked up at the moon.For some reason I was just so annoyed.

"Mugen your acting...

Fuu didnt countinue her sentence I glanced down at her she looked up at the moon.

"You know I feel like ive lost a piece of my heart today and loosing Jin after

that would be to much.It dosent matter if he wants me around or not he's been there

for me so many times so im gonna be there for him."I'd do the same if it was you."

"So are you coming with me or not?"

There was silence for awhile.Fuu didnt look at me instead she countinued to focus

her eyes on the moon.The rain stopped.


(Fuu's POV)

I heard Mugen's footsteps and I looked towards him.He had turned around

back towards the Inn.

I took a deep breath and told myself I wasant going to cry.

At that moment I heard voices.They were near by.I could swear they were

coming from the lake.Jin must be there.I took one more glance at Mugen he

was almost out of my sight.

I ran towards the lake as fast as I could.I didnt know what I would do once

I got there i didnt even know what was going on there but whatever it was

it wasant good.

(Mugen's POV)

I heard Fuu's footsteps behind me they were heading in the other direction.

I sighed.Should I have gone with her?No I shouldnt have she's a brat Jin

is fine.

My thoughts were disturbed by the sound of brances cracking.

I looked up.There was a black figure I couldnt recognize heading for the lake.

I stood there for awhile not moving.was that an illusion?

Just as I was about to forget about it I smelled a strange smell,I knew

that smell it was her the woman I had fought infront of the Inn.

I turned back around.There was no way I was letting her get away again.

(Jin's POV)

"So now your gonna charge at me with rage for hurting your girlfriend?"

"Well it wont work."Shijiru said pulling the dagger from his shoulder and putting in his mouth.

"Let's end this ive had enough of your talking."I said."Are you going

to come down here and fight me or hide on that tree forever?" I said clutching ym sword harder.

Shijiru's face shot red with anger.

The rain had stopped and the moon was shinig very bright and it reflected in the lake.

"SO YOU THINK IM HIDING!" Shijiru yelled leaping at me from the tree using the

dagger as a weapon.

I could block his attack easily with my sword and even strike a final blow

what was he thinking coming at me like that.I knew still i can let my guard down.

Right before Shijiru reached me he threw the dagger,ducked and began

running to his sword which was beside Rin.I hit the dagger away before it

touched me.Then I turned back around quickly.Shijiru had just grabbed his sword and he was chraging at me again.

I blocked his attack.

This was going nowhere we were just gonna tire ourselves out with all these hopeless attacks.

I had to do something diffrent.

Shijiru struck at me cutting my hair out from my poinytail.

My hair fell into my face and I couldnt see.Shijiru waved his sword again this time aiming at me waste

I moved back just in time so I didnt get cut so badly.Although I did get cut.

cough cough

Both me and Shijiru looked over towards Rin.She had coughed.She was still alive.

How?She wasant breathing when I left her.She must have lost alot of blood.

My heart skipped a beat.I had to get to her but I knew there was no way with Shijiru

still alive.I turned back to him.

"This is where you die!" I cried charging at him with my sword.

He made an attempt to block my blade but instead of actually attack him i paused and while

he held his sword to block my original attack i launched another at his heart to

quickly for him to block.

Before my blade reached him it was intersected by another blade.

A woman stood at Shijiru's side blocking my blade.

She had short black hair with red highlights.She wore a 2 piece kimono

and she had three swords.

"Im sorry but Im the only one who can kill him." the woman said lowering her sword.

At that same moment I heard Fuu's voice.

"Jin!" she cried.
