Shopping With The Ninja's!
Chapter 3 : Surprises.
Okay, so I was on … 'Master' Goemon's back, why he wanted me to call him Master, I have no clue, I wasn't his pet or anything, I have no cat ears or tail...but whatever, it seemed we were shopping with Hanzo and a man named Kotaro. I had faintly saw him, he seemed really silent. He only looked me over and then turned away. Who were these men truly? and when will I ever get back home...

Minume was in the meanwhile very depressed, Meyaki walked up to her and placed a hand on her shoulder giving her a squeeze, Minume looked at her with a sad look.
"My brother...is in a holding cell.. but he swears he never did anything..."
She stated and Minume shoved her away with a growl, Meyaki smiled sadly at her.
"It isn't easy you know...for me too...he is my only living relative...mom and dad both left us as children...if he goes, I'll be completely alone...I don't wanna be left alone Minume...you and Mizu-chan are the only close thing to sisters I've ever had..."
She said with some small tears dripping from her eyes, Minume pulled her into a hug.
"She is okay...I'm sure she is...it's Mizure...she never gives in easily..."
Minume smiled softly to Meyaki, who just hugged tighter.
"Mizure...please be alright...for her sake...please be alive..."
She whispered with a sad tear of her own slipping down her cheek.

"Come on Mizu...it's just for dressing.."
Goemon said as he held out a scantily clad kimono, uh uh, no way was I going to dress in that thing, for any reason whatsoever, I would not be made a fool of!
"N-NO! It's so slutty...I am not dressing like that, no way!"
I frowned at him as he walked up and grinned taking my wrist and looking down at me.
"What were the 3 rules that I gave you this morning, princess..."
He snickered and I huffed, I turned my back to him, I will not be a pawn to be messed about with, no way...
"I don't care. I will not dress like this to keep you pleasured, I have my dignity!"
I snapped, he had gone pretty quiet, but then...
BONK!
He hit me on the head! what the hell?!
"M-Master Goemon, what the heck?!"
I yelped and he smiled at me.
"You are a very interesting girl, I give you that. That bonk on the head is a small punishment off me, don't disobey again, or it'll look bad for you..."
He said with a lethal edge in his voice, I just glared at him. Who the hell does this guy think he is? Try and trick me into believing his lies, well he has another thing coming if he thinks I will let him do som-
PINCH!
Someone pinched my cheek, I looked to see Sasuke grinning and I smiled softly.
"That's the first time since...a long way back that a woman has ever back sassed Goemon. I like you! My name is Sasuke! what is yours miss?"
He smiled widely, he seemed a nice guy, a lot more sociable than Saizo...and not as forward as Goemon. I looked at him and spoke.
"I'm uhm...Mizu..It's nice to meet you Sas-"
I was pulled away as I spoke, I was turned to face a very irritated Goemon, I sighed, what did I do this time?
"I don't like how Sasuke...looks at you... don't let him take advantage of your kindness..."
Goemon said with a small blush on his face but it soon disappeared as he brought a red kimono out, it was a lot nicer than the other one.
"I thought this suited you better, plus it is my color red, shows them you you belong to!"
He pat my head and I shoved his hand away, I looked at him angrily.
"I am not a pet to be owned, or an accessory to add to your belt, I am a person, and I don't want to be associated by just being treated as a toy!"
I snapped to him, he seemed clearly taken aback, I was not sorry, I was angry at him so I turned my back.
"I'll talk to you when you learn the difference between accessories and feelings..."
I said as I walked away from him, he looked over and just tilted his head before laughing at the woman walking away.
"This...is one interesting girl...I...heh..."
He stopped and shook his head as Hanzo walked up and gripped his shoulder, he has a stern look on his face.
"You know, she is somewhat like...-"
He was cut off by Goemon's glare.
"Don't say her name...That woman, can never be her...as much as I want it, she is just a play thing...I am not falling for her..."
He said as he turned to pay for the kimono with a soft look.
'Am I?...'
-x-
I was with Sasuke for about an hour, he had a sweet personality, funny and charming, he was like a monkey he was, but he seemed to hate being referred to as a kid, seeing he was one anyhow...
"Yea, you remind me of a person that was here long long ago, she is dead now though...funny, you look exactly like her.."
He stated and I tilted my head, was I like this woman? who was she... wonder if they have a photo of her somewhere, but I guess now is not the time for that.
"So why do you fight? what reason is it you fight for?"
I asked him suddenly, his head tilted.
"The reason? well...uhm...I guess I fight to ensure that Nobunaga never hurts another soul...but I can't tell you everything...for reasons..."
He said turning his head, my eyes followed his face, it seems there are a lot of dangers here, but I suppose I am okay, I have nothing to do with it.
"So uhm...have your bosses found out if I can get home yet...?"
I asked him slowly, he shook his head and I sighed sadly.
"Oh...well alright..."
I said as I looked at the sky. It was such a peaceful day...why can't my time be this way instead of being hectic all the time..? - w-ahhh!
SHOVE!
I was pushed down by Sasuke who covered my mouth, my eyes widened as i was dragged away, tons of armored men flooded in, what was going on. why was I being dragged away by Sasuke?!
"Okay, we are safe now. sorry I pushed you Mizu...but they came from nowhere are you hurt?"
He asked as he looked me over, I shook my head as we looked down from the tree, Sasuke sighed and then stood up, I blinked at him.
"Stay here okay? I gotta kill these pests..."
K-Kill?! Are these guys murderers?! W-Will they kill me too? I don't wanna stand and just be killed easily! So I jumped off of the tree and began sprinting towards the nearest thing i I could, a small forest cave, I panted and sat down hugging my knees, I just wanted to go home, I was scared of these guys, why am I here?...Why did I get brought here...
"This is crap..."
I murmured but I never expected an answer.
"Tell me about it...We are stuck babysitting a peasant, how bothering..."
I jumped when the voice spoke and held a branch out at the person behind it, it was Saizo, he frowned at me and just snapped the twig in two.
"For a woman, you sure are bothersome...just running in a battle, what kind of ninja are you?"
He said to me, but I had no clue what he meant, ninja's? battles? What kind of place was this anyways?
"I have no clue...but I am just a normal woman...I don't know what you mean by ninja..."
I said lowly and his eyebrow raised softly, he walked over to me and tapped my head, I blinked looking up at him with my red eyes and he backed away looking cold again.
"Just...don't run anymore...stay with Sasuke and Goemon...girl..."
He said yanking me by the arm but I pulled away and snapped.
"Why?! To be treated as a god damned pet ? I am a freaking person not something to own..."
I snapped and he seemed to be genuinely stunned, I walked up to him.
"His kind are all the fucking same, see a girl and try to own them, I am not a naive woman, I will never let him get his way with me.."
I stated to Saizo, who smiled actually for once.
"Here I had you all wrong, girl, you are not half bad."
He smirked as he yanked me along again, talking this time though as he did so.
"But, stay with them anyway, don't give into his advances. He is skilled at protecting people, no matter what method he uses."
Saizo merely explained as he took me back, methods...there are methods to achieve goals...I never realised this, maybe I had Goemon figured all wrong..I should not just judge him...I feel crummy now..I should apologize to him..
We had arrived back at the inn and I was enveloped in a hug by Goemon, my eyes nearly popped out my head as he whispered into my ear.
"We will settle this tonight, in the room.."
He whispered as he let go and walked to the bedroom, aiming at me to follow him, he seemed alright but I could tell he was very angry, I gulped and walked behind him not looking up at his eyes. We spent awhile in silence before I bit my lip and looked up at him, he was sitting there with a pissed off expression etched on his face, I don't know why but I began to cry..the feelings just let out in tears.
"I'm sorry...I'm so sorry I ran off..."
I whimpered to him as I kept crying, he didn't do anything but watch, I just continued to talk.
"I'm just so terrified here, I don't know what to do...I don't know how to fit in here, I should not even be here, I should be dead right now-"
I was cut off by him hugging me tightly, I stopped crying and hiccupped, he kept hugging me in silence until he pulled away and wiped my tears away from my eyes.
"I told you before, crying is not becoming of such a beautiful woman.."
He said to me but I just couldn't stop, he kept on hugging me.
"Okay, if you have to cry, then cry but don't cry in front of another, you will get captured and taken advantage of...I don't know what I'll do if that day comes..."
He whispered to me and then sighed.
"Mizuki..."
My eyes widened, who was this Mizuki...was she the woman that everyone never mentioned...why does her name sound so familiar...why? I looked up at him and smiled softly.
"T-Thanks...Master Goemon.."
I sniffed as I stopped the tears, he smiled at me and pat my head, then looked seriously at me.
"Never, run away again...That is an order..."
He said as his arms enveloped my small body in a tight embrace.
"I will always protect you, princess..."
He whispered into my ear...but somehow..I don't think he was thinking of me...who was this girl...and why does everybody seem to mistake me for her...I guess I will discover it more as I be with these ninja's...
"Oh, hey...I forgot this.."
Goemon said as he brought out a bag with a pink kimono.
"I don't want you to be represented as my pet, I want you to be the woman that you are, my...woman..."
He stated and my cheeks flushed, I went and changed into it, I could have sworn I saw him mutter something...
"So...how does it look?"
I smiled lowly as he nodded.
"Like a real princess...but, I think you should sleep now..you have had a tiring day, and I don't want my precious princess to pass out..."
He said as he stood up and walked to the door, he turned back to me and gave a sincere smile.
"Don't try to run, I will always find you."
He smirked as he walked away from the room, as soon as he was a good distance away, he brought out a small lockette of a black haired woman and himself...
"How can she look the same as her...I have to find out...how they both are so ...the same...Mizuki...why are you doing this to me...why did you have to die..."
He sighed to himself as he looked up at the sky.
"I will uncover the truth about her...that is my promise..."
He murmured to himself as he turned and started walking back.
