"Jin, are you drunk or some shit?" Jin repeated in a mocking tone, sticking out his tongue.

-End Recap-

"Aw, fuck, you are drunk aren't cha?" Mugen asked.

"Yes, he is drunk, but that doesn't mean we stop and spend the night on the dirt! Come on, we got to look for shelter for the night…" Fuu sighed, grabbing on Mugen's hand.

He pulled his arm away from her, "Wait a sec. I wanna have fun with this guy." A devilish smirk grew on his face that made her heart stop in fear.

"Fun? I like fun! Especially the fun kind." The drunken samurai said, pouncing from one place to another.

Mugen placed a hand on his shoulder to keep him from going anywhere. The man's eyes were as red as blood and his yukata smelled of pure sake. He almost felt sorry for him, but remembered that Jin was one of the greatest swordsmen ever lived. Therefore, pity was the last thing on his mind, let alone sympathy.

"Jin, I'ma ask ya some questions, and you have to answer them. Answer them all to win the game." He explained.

He clapped his hands giddily, "Oh, what fun! Are there any rules?"

Fuu tried to open her mouth but Mugen glared at her, which caused her to go silent.

"The only rule is that you have to tell an honest answer every time, okay?" He said, patting him on the head like a pup.

"Oh, okay! Shoot!" He replied with a grin.

"What kind of man are you?! Playing with him like that! I swear I'm going to-"

Fuu was interrupted yet again. But this time, by Jin.

"Come now, Fuu, it'll be fun!" He said as he shoved her face into his chest.

Despite the smell of pure sake and raw fish, she loved the warmth of him upon her face. Even through she struggled, she hoped that he would never let go of her. That they could stay this way, at least for tonight…

"Do you really like tea, or are you just tryin to look smart?" Mugen asked.

"You've got to be kidding me…" Fuu mumbled.

Before he could answer he pushed her from his chest and said, "A little of both really. I like some tea, but I force myself to drink the other types so that I may look elegant. Ingenious isn't it!"

"Okay, you had your fun, now let's go!" She screamed. She was truly angered by Mugen's actions this time, he had been dumb and gotten away with some things, but tonight was too much for her heart to handle. Playing with him like that, as if her were some plaything, honestly.

"Just let me ask him one more thing…" He said grinning.

"Fine! Just hurry it up!"

There was a moment of silence. What could he ask? There was a lot he wanted to know, but Fuu could never be patient enough to let him ask all his questions. He watched her tap her foot in annoyance and roll her eyes constantly.

"Jin, do you like Fuu?"

The question hit her like a brick. 'Do you like Fuu?' It was something she wanted to know herself for so long, yet did not manage enough courage for such a question. He would probably say something like, 'Hm' or stay silent and stare. She sighed and looked at Jin.

"Well, do you…like me?" She asked almost sadly.

"Of course not! I don't like her." He said simply, adjusting his glasses.

She hung her head at his answer, "Oh."

'Oh' could never replace the words going through her head, the pain sinking in her heart like knives. She never knew what it was like to be heartbroken, and yet here she was, feeling as if she would fall from such heartbreak. Moreover, when she did, Jin wouldn't catch her.

"I love the woman. I thought you knew, Mugen old pal." He said happily, grabbing her waist and pulling her close.

With hot cheeks and sweaty palms, she raised her head to look at the man and muttered, "Wh-what?!"

Ah yes. Therefore, he reveals his love for her. However, does he really mean it? Could Jin be playing with Fuu's feelings? ;O You will just have to wait.
