A Perfect Day

A/N: A little gift for Lord Yau.

It was a lazy, hot day and Bankotsu was enjoying himself. He was resting in tall grass, watching birds fly above him and sing their silly songs. His brothers were spending their free time in any way they pleased.

Ginkotsu was polishing his weapons while sitting with his back against Renkotsu's shed. Jakotsu was cutting leaves from treetops with his sword after sparring with the huge Kyokotsu who was now repairing his cut clothes while Mukotsu was treating a few cuts Jakotsu had made on his arms and legs. Suikotsu was sitting under a plum tree and desperately trying to write haiku.

Everything was at peace, calm and serene. A perfect day to just laze around.

Until Renkotsu ran out of his shed.

"Get down!" he roared and ducked behind a big barrel conviniently standing near the shed. Everyone instinctively followed the order.

The air shook when the shed exploded.

Bankotsu sighed.

Yup, a perfectly normal day in Band of Seven's headquarters.
