Chapter 3:

2 years later:

Yoshimitsu crawled out of the bed. The village was still quiet. The others were still sleeping. He grabbed a slice of bread and went outside. The sun broke through the thick, white skies. A perfect day for a walk. He took his sword with him, just in case, and walked away from the village. He took the way that lead to the river. There he stopped to eat the bread slice.

The water was running calmly and the sun made it shine like silver. Yoshimitsu pulled off his shoes and put his feet in the cold, wonderful water. It felt so good, that he took off the rest of the clothes to and jumped into the deepest part of the river. He ducked under and played in the water like a child.

-Yoshimitsu! someone jelled.

He stopped and looked in the direction the voice came from. Ryu stared back at him.

-What kind of behaviour is this?! Ryu asked. –Playing like a kid... A leader shouldn't act like that!

Yoshimitsu didn't answer. He got up from the water and pulled on his pants.

-You disappoint me, Yoshimitsu. You're not the leader I thought you'd be.

-I never asked to be your leader! Yoshimitsu snarled. –But I had to! And by the way; do you never let the kid inside you loose? You should. That would do you good, old man!

He walked quickly away from the elder. He didn't want another "word fight" about his behaviour. He stopped when he came to the place he used to play when he was a child. Where he had practiced with his sword. Some marks on the tree he used to pretend was an enemy could still be seen. He stroked his fingers over it.

Suddenly he saw something in the grass. He picked it up. A knife. Badly rusted and with a K carved into it's blade. Kunimitsu's old knife.

She must have dropped it a couple of years ago. Wonder if she is still alive.

Yoshimitsu sat down on a rock and stared into nothing. He was in his own world. He saw Kunimitsu. She was dancing around. Smiling and laughing.

Two, long years and I still feel the pain of losing her. If I only had escaped along with her that night...

A tear fell from his eye. Suddenly he gave in to the sorrow. He cried like a baby.

-Kunimitsu! he screamed. –Kunimitsu!

Later.

Dr. Boskonowitch studied Yoshimitsu's cybernetic arm. He had made it three weeks ago, when Yoshimitsu lost his arm during a raid.

-Does it hurt? he asked.

-In the beginning it did, but now I can't feel it anymore. Yoshimitsu opened and closed his cybernetic fingers.

-Good. Dr. B. said. –Ok. You can go now.

-Thanks for the help, Doc. Yoshimitsu was about to open the door, when Dr. B. suddenly stumbled to the floor, breathing quickly.

-You ok, Doc? Yoshimitsu asked, worried about his old friend.

-I just forgot my heart medicine. I'll be ok. Go now.

-You sure? You might need help. said Yoshimitsu.

-Yes! Go!

-As you wish, Doc. Yoshimitsu left the room.

That didn't look good. Hope he'll be ok.

At the same time, another place:

Kunimitsu crawled inside her hideout. She jumped up in her bed. Pictures of what she had seen in the river today came up for her inner eye. Yoshimitsu playing in the water...

Wonder if he still remembers me? Or maybe he has found someone else to love?

She kept asking herself why she didn't let him see her, when she was standing behind the trees, watching him swim.

He is really handsome.... Wow, what a nice butt.

She closed her eyes and started touching herself. She let her fingers run in circles around her nipples. They turned erect. Her hand went further down. She was wet already. She let a finger slip in and pulled it out quickly and let it slip in again. She went on, until she cried out of joy.

I'm still thinking of you, baby.
