hakuouki[chapter 48]

Since you couldnt get any training done thanks to Souji you headed back to camp with Souji next to you only to be suprised when you saw a woman who you sensed was a demon talking to Chizuru. There was also another woman there who seemed to be the demon woman servent. Chizuru saw you and went up to you. "Hey sis back from your training already?'' "Yes I couldnt get much done thanks to Souji.'' You shot Souji an annoyed look. "Hey dont give me that look its your own fault for looking so cute.'' "No its not you just wanted to tease me instead of letting me train you jerk so because of that your sleeping outside the tent tonight.'' "Huh thats not fair.'' "Deal with it.'' Seeing you and Souji act like that made Chizuru giggle. "You two really have become a couple heh seeing you together makes me so happy for you.'' Hearing that made you blush as did Souji.'' "Anyway Chizuru who is that woman I can sense she is a demon.'' "Oh that is Sen she is a friend of mine I amde during my stay with the shinsengumi and yes she is a demon she came here looking for me to tell me something important plus I have told her everything about you and what demon clan you came from.'' The demon woman name Sen came over to you and she bowed to you. "I must say that it is truely a honer to meet someone from the demon Kutani clan not to mention it happens to be the the leaders daughter of the clan, Chizuru has told me much abotu you heh you really do look like your mother.'' "huh you knew my mother?'' "I met her once when I was little and she was the most beatifulist person I ever saw plus she was so kind it really is sad that she died and the rest of the clan not to mention it was your father that did it.'' "So Chizuru told you that part as well?'' "Yes and that he also has become a monster that loves to kill I really do hope that your lover dont become like him.''"He wont since I will always be beside him.'' Sen smiled at what you said once she had stopped bowing. "So what brings you here Sen?'' "I have something important to discuss with you and Chizuru as well as your friends.'' You nodded your head and went into the tent where Sanosuke was still trying to heal from his wounds while Souji followed you in as well as Chizuru, Saito and Hijikata. It was there that Sen told you and the others that an army of furies whos captain was your adopted father Kodo was coming this way to wipe out this base and any villages and government they come across since Kodo wants demons to rule these lands once again for he was ordered by Kazama to do just that. "I know that this is hard for you to hear but its the truth and I hate to ask this but please you have to kill him and the furies.'' Chizuru was shocked to hear that. "No there is no way me and Sayori could kill the man who raised us, sure killing the furies wont be a problem but we cant kill the man who was like a father to us.'' Chizuru felt someone place their hand on her shoulder and she saw that it was you. "Chizuru we dont have a choice if we dont kill him and let him escape then he will continue to keep making fureis and try to wipe out the human race, I wont let him do that even if he was the man that raised us I cant let him live.'' "But sis please reconsider or at least let me try talking him out of it please.'' You sighed. "Fine but Chizuru if you cant change his mind then he will be cut down by my blade.'' Chizuru nodded her head with a sad look on her face. She then left the tentwith Saito behind her since he was going to try and comfort her. Since Sen came and told you what needed to be said she left with her servent. You then left the tent while Sanosuke and Souji talked to each other. As you went outside of the tent you looked up at the sky as it started to get dark then you saw from the corner of your eye Hijikata standing next to you so you looked at him. "Can you really cut down the man who was like a father to you Kutani?'' "Yes if it comes to that I can do it im not as fragile as Chizuru is.'' "I can tell that you arent you really have become strong and since you have I know that you will be able to face Seijuro when he comes and then face Kazama.'' "Thank you Hijikata and I belive that you and the men that follow you can win this war for the people you serve and if you want I be happy to help you with battles you will face.'' Hijikata smiled. "Thank you Kutani but I dont think Souji would like that idea I know that he wants to get far away from me as possible and take you with him.'' "Yes that is true.'' "But when the two of you are ready to get married please get in contact with me so I can attend the wedding.'' "Huh well um that is kinda alittle early to be saying that we only just got together and um.'' Seeing you get embrassed made Hijikata laugh then he placed his hand on your head and pat it. "Souji really is lucky to have you in his life heh I do wish I could switch places with him at times [hijikata said that since he really wants to be with sayori but cant].'' "Huh what do you mean?'' Hijikata didnt say he just walked away as he went back to his tent having you stand there confused at what he said.
