The Butterfly and Her Samurai

Chapter 8

Fuu was getting cold and she wanted to go back to the lodge, but she was afraid to go back because of Mugen harassing her. She suddenly hears someone coming down the muddy trail and she was getting more afraid than before. Her first thought that it can be Mugen or it can be Jin coming to rescue her from Mugen.

"Oh no, where will he show up, I don't want him to find me?" thought Fuu. "Please, don't find me, please, don't find me," she whispered softly to herself.

In the meanwhile, her head was getting too cloudy and she couldn't think straight because she was so scared. Instead, she stood very still behind the tree with her eyes tightly shut. Then the sound of muddy walking has stopped and she took a glance around the tree, but nothing or no one wasn't there. She slowly turns back around and gasps, "Mugen!"

"Were you looking for me, Fuu?" grinned Mugen. "I've missed you, did you miss me?" he frowned giving her a sly grin.

"Mugen, wait, I'm sorry, please, just leave me alone," said Fuu sobbing and moving away from him. "Why are you doing this to me, why?" she asked him wondering and waiting for an answer.

Instead, Mugen ignores her and just walks over trapping her against the tree by stretching out his left arm and resting on it. Then, he places the brush that was in his right short's pocket with his free hand between her breasts inside her kimono, "Here, you forgot this," said Mugen glancing down her kimono. "Mmm...nice," he whistled.

Fuu gasps and slaps him hard, "YOU PERVERT!" The slap echoes throughout the forest while the thunder roars louder and the rain pours harder, and Fuu was getting even more damped under the weather. "I need to go back inside, but I won't surrender myself to Mugen and let him win me over, because I won't let him," she thought to herself.

Mugen was pissed off angrily once again, and then, he grabs her and clutches both his hands around her arms, "Don't ever do that to me again, I'm warning you, Fuu!" yelled Mugen. "No more slapping and no more kicking, you got that!" he demanded.

"I'm sorry, just let me go, please?" cried Fuu. "I won't do it again, okay, I'm sorry...I wanna go back, I'm getting cold," she said sobbing and shaking.

Mugen releases his hands off of her, but this time, he went back of trapping her against the tree with both arms resting upon it.

"Hmph, you know, Fuu, the reason that you couldn't come up with anything back there because you're too chicken to say that you want me?" he said in a husky voice.

"I'm too chicken? Hmph, you're the chicken, you big chicken!" yelled Fuu in his face. "And I don't want you, either, now let me go!" she said trying to push him away, but he refuses to move.

"Kiss me, Fuu?" said Mugen coming closer and pressing his body up against hers. "You know you liked it when we were in the room, come on, let's do this again without the kicking, okay?" he said touching her face with his right hand.

"No! Get away from me, you spineless jerk!" yelled Fuu in his face again.

"I see, you want Jin, don't ya?" Mugen asked her. "Well, I know where he is?" he said teasingly.

"Really? Mugen, where is he, where's Jin, huh?" questioned Fuu.

"He's in Edo and entered a tournament there," he grins.

"Yay! Alright, let's go to Edo," excited Fuu. "So, now let me go, shall we?" she said to him, but Mugen just shook his head disagreement.

"Not yet, you're waiting for the rain to stop, aren't you?" he asked her.

"Well, yes, but now that we know where Jin is, I can't wait to see him again," she smiled.

Mugen stared down deep into her big brown eyes, "Before we go looking for him, there's something that I need to get off my chest and I'm gonna start with you, you little bitch, now come here!" he said angrily, picking her up and throwing her over his shoulder, and then heads back to the lodge.

"NOOOOO! PUT ME DOWN, YOU BIG IDIOT! JIN, HELP ME! LET ME GO!" screamed Fuu beating his back and kicking her legs. "SOMEBODY HELP ME, PLEASE!"

"Game over, Fuu," thought Mugen. "Victory is mine and its time for me to teach you a little lesson," he said laughing out loud walking down the narrow trail.
