With Broken Wings

Chapter Four: When All Else Fails...

He woke up the next morning, covered in a thin layer of drool and sweat, she squinted his eyes and looked around, the room was empty.

"Fuu?" He poked his head out into her bedroom. Her mat was rolled and her blankets where folding in the corner. He walked in and looked at a little wooden dresser, he smiled at himself and opened one of the drawers. He started to go threw all the kimonos and undergarments hoping to find some cash, what he found was a small booklet. He picked it up and stared at it, shrugging, he threw in back into the drawer and made his way out the room.

He looked around once more.

The house was empty.

He sighed and brought himself up, looking around, slightly irritated by the fact that she left, most likely without leaving him any food.

He slowly put on his sandals and walked out the front door, he would make her feed him, even if she didn't like it.

She ran back and forth, she hated the morning rush, but then again, she hated a lot of things about her job.

Like my job

"Hey waitress….more tea over here."

That voice, she knew who that was, that voice, that dry, venomous voice.

What is Sakura doing up so early…. Doesn't she have servants to torture, why must it always be me.

Fuu turned around, a cold fake smile placed carefully on her lips, "One moment Sakura-san." She turned around frigidly and walked into the back.

He walked into the darkened restaurant, sighing as his stomach growled, he looked around for any sign of Fuu, but to his surprise, she wasn't in today.

He grunted and looked around for any one he could grab a bite from.

Bingo

It was her, the powder blue demon, sitting by herself, staring outside the window, a small smile playing on her red lips.

He smirked and made his way to her, it was going to be like taking candy from a child….. which he wasn't to good to do either.

"Oi." He tried his best to make his voice sound sexy.

She looked up at him, a cold fake smile playing on her lips, "can I help you."

He nodded and sat down next to her, throwing a tan arm over her shoulders. She looked at him, slight disgust on her lips. He leaned in close to her, a sly smirk playing on his lips, "What's up honey?"

She crinkled her small nose, pushing his hand off, "Pardon me, but is there a reason you feel the need to be so close to me?"

"Come on baby, loosen up a little, let's have a little fun." He leaned in, smelling her sweet powdery fragrance. Puckering his lips, he got ready to kiss her.

He suddenly felt something poking his side.

He looked down and saw her pale hand on the ivory handle of a katana.

He smirked and grabbed her hand, "So you like to play rough, huh?"

"Mugen…what the hell are you doing?"

That shrill voice, he looked over and saw Fuu's small frame shaking , she bit her lower lip, the small tea pot shaking in her hands.

"Mugen, what the hell…"

Fuu was barely able to get any words out before Sakura grabbed Mugens' head and planted a small kiss on his lips. His eyes widened for a second, but then he relaxed, throwing his arms over her.

Fuu felt a tinge in her heart, but soon it was over taken by rage.

So Sakura-san… you wish to play games.

Fuu turned from them, walking towards the door.

When she was sure the Fuu was gone, Sakura pushed Mugen away, wiping his kiss off of her, she looked disgusted, "You can leave now."

Mugen cocked his head to the side, "But we where just starting to have fun." He held her close to him.

"Get off of me, you pig headed dolt, don't you understand, I want nothing to do with you!" She stood up, the conviction in her voice also rising.

Mugen smirked, standing up, "Calm down sweetness, I know something that will loosen you up." He leaned in close, his hands trying to get a quick feel.

SMACK

He felt the rage fill in his cheeks, never before in his life was he ever smacked like a two bit whore, but there he was a trickle of blood falling down his lip, and the fiery marks left by the ice cold demon.

Fuu didn't know where she was running, just that she needed to run, the anger that filled her forced her to run. Her legs took her to a place she didn't recognize, she was heading deeper into the woods that lined the village.

How dare she kiss him.

But why do I care.

She felt warm tears fall down her cheek, she stopped and raised a pale hand to her face, "Why am I crying, this doesn't make any sense."

She looked around and saw a fallen log, she walked over to it and sat down, she need to clear her head, to many things where going on at once.

She put her head in her small hands, "Maybe I should marry Akira-san, he is a nice person and I'm sure that he will treat me well."

"Marry?"

She turned around startled, she knew that voice, it was so familiar.

She stood up, putting a hand to her heart, "Jin?"

"You little whore, who the hell do you think you are, slapping me like a woman." He turned his head to meet hers, spiting some blood next to her.

She kept her ice blue eyes steady on him, never showing any fear.

He towered over her, a dark shadow, he reached out with cat like speed and grabbed hold of the collar of her kimono. He brought his dark eyes to hers, "I don't like it when little girls think that they are adults." He raised his hand, ready to strike her.

"If you lay one finger on her head, I will do you the honor if being the one to take you life."

Mugen cooked his head to the side, his eyes meeting another set of blue eyes, he smirked, "And what the hell you gonna do about it, from what I can see, you're nothing more then a little bitch."

The young man was taken back by Mugen's force, but he quickly regained himself, "Let her go." His voice was strong, yet still had a hint of child-like innocence to it."

Mugen shrugged and pushed Sakura on the ground, running towards the youth with cat like grace.

"Mugen, what are you doing to Akira?" Fuu's shrill scream caught Mugen's attention

Mugen looked up at the sound of Fuu's voice, "Akira?" he stopped his attack and smiled, "Well long time no see, fish face."

"Hmp, I see that some things don't change." Jin looked down and pushed his glasses up closer to the brim of his face.
