Chapter 4: Nightmare
Later that day Yukimura was in a meeting with Shingen while Kunoichi was free to do what ever she wanted. So she went to their tent, sat on the bed and got out a piece of paper and started writing.
Today was normal. No battles what so ever. I've been bored as usual. Yukimura has been in a meeting with Lord Shingen most of the day. I over heard Shingen saying that we were heading to Azuchi to attack Nobunaga. Good for them. Good for them. Heh bad for me. Azuchi is where my fate lies. I hate being the Moon Goddess! Yeah it's awesome that during the night I get more power but in Azuchi is where I die! I don't want to leave yet! I want to stay with Yukimura for the rest of my life! The only thing that can bring me back is a kiss from the Immortal Legend. The only Immortal Legend I know is Yukimura but I know he doesn't "love" me. We are best friends. Yet…………There are things left unsaid that I want to tell him.
At that very moment Yukimura entered the tent looking upset."Man why do we have to go to…" "Azuchi." Interrupted Kunoichi "How did you know?" asked Yukimura "I over heard some of the meeting" "Oh!" Yukimura walked over to the bed and noticed the paper Kunoichi was writing on and asked, "What are you writing about Kunoichi?" "Nothing of your concern! It's my journal! It's private stuff!" "Okay sorry forget I asked!" "I……..I'm sorry Yukimura." "It's okay. I shouldn't be invading your privacy." "………..Okay." "Anyways it's getting late. Lord Shingen wants us to wake up early tomorrow to pack up and head for….." "Azuchi." Interrupted Kunoichi "Stop doing that!!! It's getting on my nerves!!!!" yelled Yukimura "Nya!!" said Kunoichi as she stuck out her tongue at Yukimura. "Why you little………" "Ha-ha!!" "Grrrr! Come here!!" "You know you can't catch me, Lord Yukimura!" "Oh really." Said Yukimura from behind Kunoichi gulp "You have no where to run now..." Said Yukimura as he grabbed Kunoichi. "Let go you pervert!" said Kunoichi trying to get out of Yukimura's grip. "What….." said Yukimura as he backed away towards the exit. "What do ya mean 'what'?" said Kunoichi "I……" Yukimura runs away. "Yukimura!" said Kunoichi as she followed him into the night. Someone comes out and grabs her. "Ready to relive yesterday?" said Masakage "Let go Masakage!!!!!!" Yelled Kunoichi "No way……With Yukimura out of the picture I can kiss you again." Said Masakage as he kissed her again. "Let GO!!!!!!!!!!" yelled Kunoichi as she kicked Masakage in the shin. "That didn't hurt you know..." said Masakage "THIS WILL!!!!" Yelled Yukimura as he sent Masakage flying into a tree. "WHAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOO!!!!!!" Screamed Masakage
"Huh?" said Kunoichi confused. "You okay Kunoichi??" said Yukimura as he placed his hand on her shoulder. "Yeah I'm fine……………sorry 'bout what happened earlier….." "HUH??? What are you talking about…? I just returned from visiting my father." Said Yukimura. "When I said 'let go you pervert". I'm sorry about that……" said Kunoichi about to cry. "Oh it's alright Kunoichi." Yukimura said wrapping his arm around her waist. "Okay!...Let's go back to the tent and get some rest. It's getting late and I'm tired." "You go on ahead, I have to speak with Masakage." he said while looking at Masakage. 'Okay! Bye!" said Kunoichi as she vanished into thin air. "Thanks for your help." said Yukimura "Huh? Say what?" said Masakage "Thank you is what I said!!" yelled Yukimura "Oh! No prob!! Why did you plan this again?" said Masakage "……. I don't know." Said Yukimura with a vacant expression on his face. "Really now………Well, Later!" said Masakage as he walked to his tent. "Might as well go back myself." Said Yukimura Back at the tent Kunoichi was getting ready for bed. As she was getting ready someone snuck in. "W-w-who is there? "Heh heh heh heh heh……………" Said the ominous figure with Yukimura. "Let go of Lord Yukimura!" commanded Kunoichi "Nope! - So say good-bye to your precious Lord" "Leave him alone!!" shouted Kunoichi "Too late" said the ominous figure as he stabbes Yukimura. "AGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" Screamed Yukimura "No………Lord Yukimura……………NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! "NOO!!!" said Kunoichi as she woke up. "AAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!" yelled Yukimura as he fell off the bed and hurt is butt. "Just………just a dream…….." "Kunoichi, You alright?" "I…………" The tears that now flowed down her face prevented her from saying anything else. "Kunoichi?" "I………had a dream…..that…….you got stabbed……" "Stabbed by whom?" "I don't know……but he sounded like someone I know…" Said Kunoichi still crying. "Aw, Kunoichi….." Yukimura got off the floor and sat up on the bed. He wrapped one arm around her and pulled her closer to him, trying to calm her down. Kunoichi all of a sudden threw her arms around his neck and continued to cry. Stunned, Yukimura then wrapped his arms around her waist and started rocking her back and forth. Kunoichi, all of a sudden again, pulled herself closer to Yukimura. Due to her reaction Yukimura was feeling uneasy….yet….he was also feeling quiet comfortable.
"Okay now that's enough cuddling for one night. Let's try and get some sleep okay." Said Yukimura but was cut off short by seeing Kunoichi soundly asleep in his arms.
