Kasumi collapsed into the soft bed, she was exhausted. But too happy to
sleep, she was finally home. Truly home. No more running, no more fears.
And best of all no more searching, she's found what she'd been after all
this time, Hayate. Her brother.

As Kasumi lied in her bed. She thought back on all she'd been through.
Running from ninja's for her life. Ninja's who she'd grown up with. Some
who were even her FRIENDS had wanted her dead. Luckily she was fast. And
well trained, thanks to Hayate. She's escaped every attack. Not always
without injury, but never seriously hurt either. She'd lost a lot over
those months. Friends, family, almost everything she owned. Off course she
had it all back now, most of it. But it wasn't the same. And never would
be. Because she'd lost something that could never be replaced. Her
childhood innocence. No longer could she accept people for who they are. No
longer could she trust people fully. Because even her brother had turned
against her in the end. Not that he had a choice.

There was a time when kasumi though she'd be running forever. But all that
had changed. She had defeated Genra, and been welcomed back by the ninja's,
her family, her friends.

And she tried to find it in her heart to forgive them, but she couldn't.
not after all she'd been throw.

"But at least I have Hayate" she thought as she finally drifted off to
sleep.
