Chapter Three
Dinner went smoothly. Master Yamamoto complimented me, and then ate in silence. I did as well, after dessert had been served, we discussed my training. I would be spending the next year learning law, justice, chivalry, what is expected of a noble lady, and all the workings of shinigami and nobles directly from Sergeant and Master Yamamoto. I would not be taught in any combat until after I had mastered all of that. I agreed, though disgruntled. That wasn't too say I wasn't going too be worked out, though. I would be taken on regular runs and physical work outs with Sergeant. Apparently he would also serve as a "coach" of sorts.
I also discovered I would be adopted into the Yamamoto family.
And I was too be renamed.
"What?!" I shouted out, unable too restrain myself. I was shocked.
"Child!" Yamamoto barked in a scolding tone. I lowered my head, sinking back into my chair. "In order too become part of the Yamamoto family, a proper name must be given. Something as despicably Western as "Nemesis" cannot be permitted. From now on, you shall be addressed as "Tsukihime"."
I glared at the floor, my Daddy had given me that name, but I nodded in consent. If I wanted my revenge, I had no choice.
From that day forward, only Sergeant and Master Yamamoto knew my real name was Nemesis, and when we were alone, only Sergeant addressed me as such.
I also discovered that Sergeant's bed was a small futon on top of a cot (actually quite comfortable, mind you) in my room. And he also discovered that from that night forward, since my family's death, I was plagued by nightmares that woke me up screaming.
Eventually, Yamamoto ordered that I be taken too Unohana, the woman who had healed me before. Sergeant escorted me.
"Miss Yamamoto?" She said in surprise. I yawned slightly, looking uncomfortable.
Sergeant spoke for me.
"Master Yamamoto sent her down here to acquire some sleep sedatives because of milady's nightmares." Unohana nodded, and handed us the medicines.
"They will work quickly, so be in bed when you take them," she advised me. I nodded, leaving quickly. Little did both me and the Captain know, we would be meeting much more often in the near future.
