With Broken Wings

Chapter Three: Sun Scared Warrior

He sighed and stretched his tan arms, looking up at the sky, he squinted his eyes, he hated sunny days, they usually meant that it was also going to be hot, which in the end always meant one thing….he was going to end up starving.

He looked into the horizon, a small town coming into view, he smiled, it wouldn't be that hard to find some dope he could rob, and maybe for the first time in a while he would eat like a king.

He puffed his chest out as he walked down the worn dirt roads, people eyeing him and the strange sword he carried on his back. He gave the on lookers his meanest scowl; they quickly turn and went back to their daily routine. He looked around for a place to grab a quick bite to eat.

A Tea House

How convenient.

He pushed the screen door open and looked in, nothing too strange, just like any other restaurant he would go into. He searched for some easy prey, maybe a drunk or a cute girl that would pay for his lunch.

Old couple…….nope

Little kids, not a chance

Newlyweds…..not on my life

Beautiful girl…bingo.

She sat surrounded by servants, they were chatting away mindlessly. She stared out the window, a fragile hand under her pale chin. She wore the finest silk kimono tied by a blue obi.

He gave a predatory grin, licking his teeth. This would be like taking candy from a baby, a really sexy, grown baby, but a baby none the less.

The girl looked up and gave an exasperated sigh, "waitress, what in the world is taking you so long."

Mugen started to close distance, he would go in for the kill, and maybe if things went his way, he would get a little love that night.

She looked up at him, giving him a cold smile.

He was only a few feet away from her table, "Well, hello there….."

"Coming Sakura-san."

That voice.

Mugen stopped dead in his tracks

That small child like voice.

He slowly turned around, and there she was….Fuu.

Fuu slowly turned the dumplings in the pan, she sighed, all she wanted to do was go home and sleep, this waitress thing sure wasn't working for her. Maybe she would take up Akira's proposal; she would be treated like a queen if she did.

And best of all, I wouldn't have to work another day in my life.

She smiled to herself, but soon her musing was cut short by the ice cold yell of Doji Sakura, "Waitress, what in the world is taking you so long?"

Fuu grimaced, she hated Sakura, she hated her more then she hated any one in her life. Sakura was the definition of "Crazy Bitch".

Fuu sighed and picked up the bottle of tea and made her way into the main room.

Then she saw the back of his head.

Those unruly curls

Gods…no…. I can't be…

"Mugen?" Her voice was small and uneasy.

"Huh?" He slowly turned around, facing her.

She was different.

She had grown up a bit, her auburn hair now reached half way down her back, the baby fat was gone from her face, he looked up and down and gave a sly smirk, "I see that you have finally grown into a woman."

Her face flared, she bit her lip trying to control her anger.

Later that night

Mugen sat stone cold, a white bandage around his head.

Fuu looked over to him, "So what brings you here, Mugen?"

He stuck his bottom lip out, "Food. Women. Not getting hit it a ceramic tea pot."

A quick looked a victory flashed across her face, "Serves you right, trying to grab me and all."

He sighed and threw himself on the ground, "Not like there's much to grab any ways."
