Chap. 34 If Your Boss Wears Sunglasses all the Time Then he's a Deadbeat
Sarutobi stomps past "Yorozuya Gin- chan" once again. "Where is he?" She growls. "He hasn't been back in forever!" She takes out her phone, staring at the home screen at a picture of Gintoki picking his nose. She smiles, tracing the screen with her fingers. "Oh, Gin- san… I want to feel your strong hands hit me so hard on my…" She stops suddenly seeing a woman staring at her in disgust. "You got a problem?!" Sarutobi screams. She clicks her tongue, putting a hand on her hip. She chuckles "This is why I'm the only one that can fulfill your sadistic side my Gin- san."
Sarutobi's eyes widen suddenly, glancing up. She nearly gasps at the man walking at the opposite end of the street. "He looks familiar…" She whispers.
The man stops, turning his head slightly, a smirk plastered on his face. The scar running from his forehead to the middle of his cheek plain as day.
Sarutobi gasps. "He's…!"
The man turns his head back around, walking into the crowd.
Sarutobi looks back down at her phone, quickly pressing two on the keypad. She brings the phone up to her ear, hearing the person on the other end pick up. Before the receiver on the end could say anything, Sarutobi speaks in a solemn voice. "Zenzou… we need to talk."
"So, why did you give my naughty secret away?" Matsudaira asks, pointing his gun at Kondou. "Hm? Gorilla?" He cocks the gun. "I'll give you to one to answer me, got it?" Matsudaira says with a sneer. Kondou's eyes widen, he opens his mouth to give his reasons, but Matsudaira interrupts with a smile. "One."
Kondou screams as the gun goes off, quickly covering his head.
Matsudaira snorts. "Like that lame miss would have hit you… idiot."
Kondou takes his hands off his head, looking beside him to see a small hole at least two inches from where he was crouched. "Like hell! That so would have hit me! And what happened to two and three?!" Kondou screams.
"Oh? You think it would have hit that gorilla face of yours?" Matsudaira asks. He takes a few steps forward, pressing the barrel of the gun against Kondou's forehead. "Shall I make it where I definitely won't "miss"?"
"W-Well…" Kondou chuckles nervously.
"Oi, Old Man!" Sougo says. "What the hell are you thinking giving the order to arrest Boss?"
"S-Sougo… I don't think you should…" Kondou trails off as he feels the gun come away from his forehead.
Matsudaira smirks. "I guess all children love answers to things, but that's just the thing." He points the gun at Gintoki. "There really is no answer."
Hijikata takes a step forward. "Like hell…" He mutters, pointing his sword at Matsudaira.
Matsudaira sighs, walking forward, stopping just at the tip of Hijikata's sword. He taps the tip of the sword with his gun barrel. "This is why I hate young men… They go showing off their junk to my precious daughter. My favorite part is killing them."
"You seriously just admitted to murdering someone didn't you...?" Kondou mutters.
Matsudaira looks over at Gintoki who was watching obviously uninterested in what was going on. Kagura was picking her nose and Shinpachi was watching nervously. Matsudaira smirks, any further emotion hidden behind his sunglasses. "I've always wondered what was so special about you… Sakata Gintoki. I don't even know how you moved the Shogun enough for him to want to resign… You seem the like the normal scum my daughter would bring home."
"Your daughter must seriously hate you." Gintoki says.
Matsudaira frowns, walking towards Gintoki, stopping in front of him. He lifts his arm, pointing the gun at Gintoki's forehead. "I wasn't planning on killing you, but I guess I will."
"Hey!" Kagura screams, moving forward.
"Wait Kagura- chan!" Shinpachi exclaims, putting a hand on her shoulder before she could do anything irrational. He looks at Matsudaira slightly pleading. "Can't you give a solid reason for Gin- san's arrest?"
Matsudaira's frown deepens. He turns slightly, his gun now pointing at Shinpachi. "I said there's no solid reason kid." He cocks the gun, the click making Shinpachi jump slightly. Matsudaira adds pressure to the trigger. Suddenly a hand grabs Matsudaira's arm in a bruising grip. Matsudaira's sunglasses drop slightly, showing his surprised eyes. He smirks. "I wasn't really going to kill him, you know?"
Gintoki smiles. "I know… It's just…" Gintoki's eyes darken. "You're really pissing me off." Gintoki pulls Matsudaira's arm, pulling Matsudaira towards him. Gintoki quickly rams his shoulder into his chest, flipping Matsudaira completely over his shoulder. Matsudaira's body slams onto the ground with a sickening crack. He groans, trying to return oxygen to his lungs.
Sougo, Hijikata, and Kondou gape at what just happened.
"Gin- san!" Shinpachi screams. "What are you doing?!"
"Go Gin- chan! Fight- O!" Kagura exclaims.
"Don't encourage him!" Shinpachi screams.
"The… hell?" Matsudaira whispers, breathing rapidly.
Gintoki grips Matsudaira's arm that he never let go of. He twists it to the point of breaking. Matsudaira grits his teeth in pain. Gintoki sighs. "Look Captain, General or whatever you are. I don't want to deal with your shit right now. I have problems of my own right now and I don't need you taking another damn dump on it to top it off." Gintoki twists the arm a little bit more before letting go and taking a step back. He turns, walking past Sougo, Hijikata, and Kondou.
"Wait Gin- san!" Shinpachi screams, running to catch up to him, Kagura close behind.
Sougo looks after him, smiling. Hijikata smirks. Kondou glances over at Matsudaira who was still lying on the ground. "I don't think this is something to be smiling about…"
"Well, go and see if he's alright then." Sougo says.
Kondou runs behind Hijikata. "But… I'm scared." He whispers.
"Get your ass over there!" Hijikata screams, kicking him.
Kondou looks over at Matsudaira, walking cautiously towards him. "U-Um sir." Kondou's eyes widen as he hears a click. He quickly covers his head, thinking he was going to shoot.
Matsudaira drops the magazine of the gun, the bullets spilling out. He throws the gun to the side, the gun landing with a loud clack.
"What are you doing?" Kondou asks.
Matsudaira lays his head back, a smile coming to his lips. He reaches into his pocket pulling out a cigarette. He lights it, inhaling deeply.
"Um, why did you throw your gun away?" Kondou asks.
Matsudaira takes the cigarette out of his mouth, pursing his lips he blows a cloud of smoke into the air. "Kondou… I think I understand why now… Damn, can't believe I didn't see it."
"Um, what are you talking about?" Kondou asks.
"Help me up. That damn kid probably broke my back." Matsudaira says. He chuckles. "And my arm…"
Oboro sighs, leaning back against a wall. "So, what do you want Mukuro?" He asks.
"You know I don't like to be called by that old name…" Nobume says. She flips her blue hair over her shoulder, leaning back on the opposite wall of the alley.
"Oh, right. Nobume." He smirks. "So, Nobume, what do you want?"
"I wanted to ask you to stay away from Sakata Gintoki." Nobume says.
Oboro raises an eyebrow. "What?"
Nobume looks at him, her eyes narrowing. "I know you wish to fight Sakata Gintoki again. Let me tell you something I have observed. Sakata Gintoki, once he has fought someone and fails, the next time you fight he will come at you with ten times the strength than before. You have experienced this, haven't you?" Oboro glares at her. Nobume's face softens as a flicker of a smile comes to her lips. "Imagine if Sakata Gintoki fought you for a third time. He's already mastered all of your moves and techniques."
Oboro chuckles. "Well, thank you for the information, Mukuro." He says mockingly.
Nobume takes a long look at him for a few seconds before walking away.
Oboro laughs aloud, sliding back against the wall till he was sitting on the ground. "Well… even Nobume was fooled…" Oboro reaches into his pocket, pulling out his cellphone. He looks at the caller ID a smile coming to his lips. He puts the cellphone to his ear. "Well, didn't think I'd hear from you again… What do you want me to do?"
The man on the other end laughs. "Always so enthusiastic to receive orders, aren't you?"
Oboro tilts his head. "Only matters on this particular subject."
"Aw, you hurt my feelings… You make me feel as if I'm doing my job wrong."
Oboro chuckles. "Don't worry. I enjoy this. Especially this particular job. So, when does my job get to play out?"
"Now."
Oboro's eyes widen. "Really?"
"Yep!" The voice exclaims childishly. "We're ready for the distraction and you're the main event!" Kakeru laughs. "Understood?"
Oboro grins. "Yes."
Authors Note: I think I made Matsudaira a little… mean.
I finally got Sa- chan in there! Yay! And she's very obsessive…
Okay! I am going to change a few things within this story, but not enough to change the storyline. I'm finally going to go back and edit it. Yes, I'm 34 chapters in and now I choose to go back and edit. Well, good night, or something like that… Almost forgot to say this but… I.T.'S. S.U.M.M.E.R! It's pretty obvious, but to those people living under a rock, it's summer. Have happy times getting dehydrated and maybe having some heat strokes(;
