I am strengthened by my weaknesses. I am brave because of my fears. I am greater because of my mistakes.

Okita's POV
When pops said that the meeting is only for Commander and Vice commander I secretly listen to their not so loud meeting about the mission, Hijikata secretly told me about the mission even though I heared it I pretend I didnt know anythingI Hijikata said that his instinct is that a strong enemy will attack the bakufu ship I decided that I want to join not because it was Hijibakas's order but because I got bored. I come along and protect the shogun and the princess I sneak to their ship. The enemy attack and I saw the princess running I protected her and kill our enemy while saying to her the parts of the body of the man I killed, the princess got scared and order me to stop. When I was attacking the enemy a man who look like the same age as appeared he is also an enemy but he killed his own ally just to fight with me. He looks really like China... Vermellion hair and Azure blue eyes and also holding an umbrella. No doubt this man is realated to China! he's a Yato, the man attack me, good thing Katsura-san trained me to have a faster foot work and China and I had a sparring he's on another higher level than china, he's strong I need to get the princess safe before this man attack again. I pretended that my hand has been sliced I hold the broken sword and when he click the bait and attack I attack him with the broken sword. He got injured by my attack and when he's going to attack theres an explosion in our direction. I heared the princess is calling me so I go to him and ask the old man to escape. I dont know how many minutes I can buy, I saw a lot of man wearing umbrellas, they are all Yato's. A man appeared and gave the shogun's head to the Yato saying that he already killed Shogun, I want to comfirm if its really the shogun but the ship is now sliced into half, the Yato that china resembles attack again and I attack him back. I called that man criminal and he called me Policeman.
Shinpachi' POV
I got chained in the tree by the ninja and we are surrounded by the enemy Kagura-chan is in the ground. Gin-san is the only one who can act freely. Giin-san's been acting much more careful since Katsura-san left. The shogun appeared and save us Momonci is also not an enemy, We all go to Ninja's village they said that the enemy will not follow but Gin-san been acting strangely saying that the enemy will not only be satisfied by the Shogun's head. Gin-san told us to get ready the enemy will attack and we saw a ship with Harusame flag. Gin-san said the enemy will not stop even if the shogun dies and if we want him to stop we have to kill him. I look at the enemy's face and its the disowned samurai in Katsura-san's story.
Gintoki's POV
This is bad the Harusame where Kagura's stupid big brother is there and The Kiheitai teamed up to assasinate the Shogun, Takasugi will not stop he's only listening to sensei and sometimes to Zura... Takasugi I wont let you kill the Shogun he's our friend and Zura will be mad at you if that happens. The enemy attack and Shogun is now running away he also wants to fight saying he cannot bear to see people die... I cant stop my self I nearly hit the Shogun's face! I ask him if he wanted to abandon everything and die here? We dont plan running away in this battle... the shogun can throw a kunai it can be help. The Yato so many Yato is our first enemy, Kagura's stupid older brother is not here... the yato's are so strong but we have Kagura... she is also a Yato. Mayo-freak and Gorilla appeared out of nowhere and help us protect the shogun and fight the Yato. Momonci tell us the secret path and we should let the Shogun go there we run to go there. Gorilla requested to us as Shinsengumi's first and last request that we should protect the Shogun most of the time they are requesting individually. I ask Shinpachi to take the Shogun to the secret path and me and Kagura will hold the enemy. Kagura's brother appeared together with Takasugi.
Takasugi: Gintoki, you will lose everything again.
I haven't lost anything, its just there's one less back for me to protect now!.
No one can stop us not even Sakamoto, Zura or Shouyo...
We attack each other...
Kagura's POV
I punch Kamui and he said that I act a little arrogant, I notice that he's not usinf his right hand, I wait for him to use his right hand and when he use it I punch it, he dropped his Umbrella, I notice also his stomach, I kick hiim stomach and saw it bleedding. I am no longer a crying baby, we will help protect this planet.
Gintoki's POV
Takasugi and I are equally strong, we were rivals since we are in childhood, we both know how we swing our swords, we both know how each other fight, when I hit him, he will hit me back. Just like before when we are a child...
Takasugi's POV
Fighting with Gintoki makes my mind go back to the past... when we first met Katsura is there and then sensei appeared and get Gintoki. I challenge the dojo that Gintoki is in and I didnt stop until I was beaten up by him, I fell asleep when I wake up sensei was there, he ask me if being a samurai does have a qualification I said to him that he is the Samurai, sensei told me that both who are study diligently and try to become better human beings, and me as a dojo challenger is a samurai to sensei's eyes. Doubt yourself, lose your way and become the kind of samurai you want to be sensei said, the next day I challenge Gintoki again and got lost, when I got home my father punch me and ask what am i doing? and threaten to disowned me, he ask mother to not let me eat and I go to the shrine when we first met Gintoki and sensei, I sat there and think... Katsura appeared I still called him by his name back then, he's holding his rice balls saying that he doesnt eat a rice balls with tuna mayo, he left the food and said that he's mother asked him to leave it to shrine as an offering, Katsura is my first friend unlike me he doesnt have a family left and he is all alone, I said to him that his grandmother already died long time ago... Zura even if he's a child he's really a stupid. I smiled when I remember it the next day Zura watch the match with Gintoki and he make a rice balls that day is the very first time I won to Gintoki. Sensei appeared saying he thought that I already joined the his school, Gintoki's mad because he lost Katsura hold him and said stop we're not opposing sides anymore and ask everyone to make a rice ball together, Gintoki ask Zura which side his on and Zura didnt answer him in which side he is. Gintoki thought that Zura is giving him a rice ball but Zura said that he wont give Gintoki and gintoki should make it on his own sensei already eat the rice ball he eats faster and we all laugh... that is also they I laugh.
Both Gintoki and I are on the ground when I get up I saw shoyo sensei I asked him if he is going to punch me again are you going to stop me?
Gintoki: He's gone... Sensei is no longer in this world... we're the only one who can stop us now.
My hands is shaking but I still fight Gintoki both of us let go of our sword and fight in fists.
Gintoki the last thing I saw in my left eye is you...
Even though we fought to save him, we were so weak, we had to use his life as a stepping stone to survive... And we made you bare that cross.
Why did you come to save us? Why didnt you abandon us and save sensei? I'm sure you could've done it. You must've wanted to save him more than anyone. So why Gintoki? Why did you choose us, Gintoki?!
Gintoki: If you'd been in my shoes back then, you would've done the same. That's the reason why you pointed me your sword. Takasugi, I dont recall ever choosing you. Its justt that while I knew well what you held dear, I also knew what shouyo sensei held dear too well. Even if I have to walk thru sensei or your corpse, I'll protect the soul old his student, our friend and Shoka Sonjuku's Takasugi Shinsuke! I'm Sakata Gintoki disciple of Yoshida Shouyo!
Takasugi: I'm amazed you can still say that, I see ... I had no idea. I haven't expelled yet, have I?
Gintoki: Ask Zura he's our president
I smiled but someone attack me behind my back I saw Gintoki's surprised and worried face...
Gintoki's POV
The Tendoshu came along with Oboro, Takasugi is not moving...
Oboro: Why do you still grip your broken sword? You killed your teacher, you even battled your former friend. What are you trying to fight for?
Gintoki: My enemy is right here, we never change in order to become the kind of samurai we wanted to be, we've all been fightig our own selves. I cant accept his brand of samurai or his methods, I'll stop him even if it means having to kill him but I'm also the one who understands how he feels better than anyone else. Be it killing him or protecting him, they're both my job.
Oboro: Shoyo must be crying in his afterlife, the students he gave his life to save are burning with hartred because of him, and throwing away their lives. Farewell Shoyo's disciples
They attack me but I need to protect Takasugi. I fought back and Oboro attack me I blocked it Don't take Shoyo's- I said
Takasugi: name in vain
he got up and pick his sword and pierced Oboro's left eye.
Oboro: Survive? Your both be killed here
Kagura and Kamui came back and save us
Kamui: Too back neither of them's gonna die here because they're both for me to be kill. Shinsuke, I can't have you dying here. You promised to fight me as soon as I repaid my debt, remember?
Kagura: I wont let anyone killed Gin-chan that includes you kamui.
Kamui: Try to make it out here alive, Prove that you are strong
all of us fight to make it out here, we need to get out here! I cant even see my Zura and my Angel.
We fight and run Kagura is helping me and Kamui is helping Takasugi, we both parted our ways
We made it to where Shinpachi and everyone.
The shogun got down from his posistion and go to Kyo, he was replaced by NobuNobu.
I am now at the Hospital, I am still confined and Shinpachi came and ask me if its okay that the shogun is alive but got replaced... to be honest I dont know what will now happen, all I want now is to see my family alive, I'm glad Zura is not here because I know he will protest if he know that his shogun friend got replaced.
Shiinpachi: Just what will happen now to the world?
Before the dawn... The night is its darkest just before dawn. But keep your eyes open. If you avert your eyes from dark, you'll be blinded by the rays of a new day, So keep your eyes open, no matter how dark the night ahead may be.
The Shogun shige-shige sho-chan died one of his old friend assasinated him.
Zura's POV
When I heared the news about the replacement of Shogun I know theres something wrong, I pack our things and said goodbye to old man who gave us job. We travel back to Edo and learned the news that today is shige-shige's funeral. I go buy one of the flower to honor my friend who died and go to one of the highest building.
Shogun... Sho-chan we were always at odds as enemies, but we shared the same ambition to make this a better country. I couldnt put an end to you with my own hands, so I failed to keep the promise I made as an enemy. But the promise we made as friends who pursued the same ambition, I'll definitely fulfill it. I threw the flowers
I go to yorozuya but no one is there, I met Elizabeth and all of the joui, I tell Elizabeth to tell me exactly what happen they dont know what happen to the ninja village but I learned the situation and plan everything before I meet Gintoki, I need to convince Sougo or Hijikata, with this new government I think that they will arrest and close the shinsenhumi and all of loyal to shogun, I came to Otose-san's bar and leave Tenshi, Tenshi will soon be two years old I need to end this so we come back to our family Gintoki...
Otose-san I will come back soon and when I'm gone please take care of our baby. I go back to our headquarters and Elizabeth evething the plan.
