Away
Okita and Yumi woke up early that morning with only five hours of sleep. But no matter. Yumi was still in shock from the other night and she was right Okita would protect her but she was scared that what if someday he would be too late! Or what if he would hurt himself just trying to save her. She now had the fear of losing him so soon. So she had just decided today would be her last day with Okita for she was going to leave and never come back.
"Are you ok Yumi? You seem more scared than you did this morning when I woke you up and you thought I was the man from last night."
"Oh no I'm fine no worries just absolutely horrified that you're going to get hurt trying to protect me one of these days."
"It would be better for me knowing that I'll be hurt and you'll be safe. It's better than just seeing you suffer."
"I've made my decision I'm going to leave today so I guess it'll be my last with you. Please don't stop me though I know what I'm doing."
"…"

(Later that day)
"Simpachi!" Tetsu shouted.
"Eh, what midget!"
"Okita's pretty mad at you I don't think you should stay around him he's like RARR!"
"Well now he's reminding me of you. When ever I tease you about Saya you girlfriend and tease him about Yumi, you two both squirm and dangle on my fishing line! Hahahaha!"
"Shut it, we have very emotional feelings! Just because you don't there's no reason to show us that you're so jealous."
"Yeah Simpachi, show those two a little respect." Sano added.
"Eh, what ever I need to take break! This fishing is boring!"
"But, Simpachi you haven't caught a single thing."
"Uh, that's because the fish were too small! Eh, heh…got to go!"
"Man, Simpachi is weird!" Tetsu said while, watching Simpachi and Sano sprint away.

(Back at SSGH (shin-sen-gumi headquarters)
Okita sat down as close as he could to Yumi while she was cooking. He watched move and he liked watching her long black, raven hair swish side to side. She was done cooking sooner than he thought but, he couldn't take his eyes off of her so he kept on watching her. Yumi left the room and went to serve the members their food and she came back soon. She walked towards Okita who didn't really notice her at first but she kept on walking towards him and then she made a sudden stop and held her hand out. He just stared. Yumi was wondering why Okita's face was in awe but no matter she just said "Okita what are you staring at?" Okita suddenly snapped out and too her hand. She blushed and then she started feeling the butterflies in her stomach, she had wanted this ever since she saw him but, it's too late she would be leaving.
Yumi brought Okita back to her room and she told him to sit while she packed her belongings. Than Okita stood up, walked over to Yumi and stood right behind her. "Why can't you stay?" Okita asked with lots of confusion. Yumi just stopped folding her clothes and turned around facing Okita ghostly face. She put her arms around Okita and embraced him while saying "I can't lose you, not it you're to get hurt." And she let go of him and started packing once again. Okita turned around and facing the door he left. He went to his room and got something out from his drawer. He tucked it inside of his robe and walked back Yumi's room.
Just as he got there he saw Simpachi and Sano, he couldn't help but walk over to them. Okita quickly drew his sword and cut a spike of Simpachi's hair off. "Ahh! You ghost, you killed my hair!" Okita just put his sword back in it's case and walked away. He got to Yumi's room and opened the door, but Yumi wasn't there. Okita shut the door and in panicking he turned his face side to side hoping that he would see Yumi. Except he didn't, he finally stopped shaking his head started to slouch his back.
All of a sudden he feels a hand covering his eyes. He knew it wasn't Tetsu this time so he got his hands and felt the other persons hands. It was Yumi. He was so excited to see her because he thought that she had already left. He didn't even bother to say who it was he just stood up and immediately hugged Yumi and gave her the item he was carrying. She opened the bag and inside was a case. Okita looked at her eyes she was happy and sad, but he only wanted to see happiness. Carefully Yumi opened the case and inside was a bracelet! All of a sudden her eyes were water and seemed almost like glitter.
Yumi was so happy because she had lost her old on and it looked exactly like this. But, all of a sudden she didn't feel like keeping it. It made her think of her memories watching her mother and younger brother get slaughtered. She also didn't want it because she would always have the memory of Okita. She didn't want that, she wanted to forget about him after this day. So she settled down from her happy self and started taking the bracelet off. "You don't want it?" Okita asked with sorrow. Yumi starred at his eyes and then she finally smiled and nodded a no. She handed the bracelet back to Okita and started walking away. Okita followed her destination. But on the way there he saw someone on the roof again. It was the female ninja. Okita pulled out his sword and an at least until he caught up to Yumi.
The ninja jumped down from the roof and Okita saw four others with her. Okita starred at Yumi and asked her "Did you used to work with them?" Yumi nodded yes and she started to cry. Okita knew that they were out numbered so he said sit here I'll protect you. And Yumi couldn't help but smile. Okita fought knowing that one of them will try to get her and he failed in keeping Yumi safe. He watched them carry Yumi off and he could see her body being held in one of their arms. He could almost imagine what they would do to her. He was angry and he headed back to headquarters to send out a search party for her.
