The Samurai Drabble Series
Number 7: Bad Timing starring Magoichi Saika
Magoichi Saika was currently telling a gaggle of very pretty girls some wildly exaggerated stories of his bravery in the final battle he fought in to unite Japan. He was just getting to the part where he had taken a musket shot through the heart (cough Bulls cough) when the doors to the exclusive rooms of the pleasure house were thrust open, and a yellow blur leapt on Magoichi.
"I'm so happy your alive Magoichi" exclaimed the blur
"Whoa, take it easy Hideyoshi" remarked the man, aware that his progress with the geisha girls was rapidly diminishing.
It got worse. Nene came storming in.
"How could you just leave Hideyoshi like that?" she yelled "You better come back right now!"
The girls began to disperse, looking disappointed.
"Hey, come on now ladies" started the ever suave, yet somehow desperate gunman said.
"I'm sorry but we don't associate with married men"
"What? She's his wife" shot Magoichi, pointed at the undignified lump attaché to his shoulders, hoping he could salvage the horrendously bad timing of Nene and her now sobbing husband.
"Hug back Magoichi, I've missed you" sniffled the ruler of Japan.
The girls filed out one by one, as Magoichi hung his head.
The last girl out glanced back for a moment, a thoughtful look on her face.
"You know yaoi isn't too bad…" she said, winking.
"Well, I'm an open-minded guy" said Magoichi extracting himself from the overwhelmed Hideyoshi. He walked off with the beautiful geisha, thanking the gods for the opportunity granted in spite of his friends really, truly bad timing.
