Once you had stopped crying, Souji lifted your face so he can look in to your eyes. "Am I dreaming or is this real, are you really here Yuria?'' You smiled. "Yes I am Souji im really here.'' You then told Souji everything that had happpend to you over the years and what was happening with you now. Souji pulled you close and held you again. "Im just so glad your alive Yuria so so glad.'' "I can tell.'' You then thought of something. "Hey Souji when I went by our head quarters I saw two graves with Heisuke and Shinpachi's name on them, are they really dead?'' "Yes they are im sorry you had to see that when your memory had not returned yet.'' "What of the others?'' "Hijikata, Sanosuke and Saito is still alive.'' "What of Sannan and Kondou?'' "They both are dead.'' Souji then told you what happened to them making you cry as you did with Heisuke and Shinpachi and Souji comforted you as you cried but you soon calmed down and then thought of Ryunosuke. "What of Ryunosuke where is he?'' "I dont know after we had thought you died two years ago Ryunosuke left and me and the others never saw him again.'' "I have to find him, I have to see him again.'' "But how when even you dont know where he is.'' "I have an idea and when I do find him ill come back to you and the others and you can tell me more of this girl you had fallen in love with.'' Souji showed a sad look and you couldnt understand why until he told you everything that has happpend[if you read my first hakuouki story then you will know what hes talking about]. When you heard everything you felt two emotions, your first one was sadness of your friends dying and knowing Souji was very sick and would die soon and the second emotion was anger towards the girl that Souji had falling in love with name Sayori since you blame her for Heisuke and Shinpachi dying since it was that demon who was after her and killed your two friends so they wouldnt get in his way and you also were mad at her for leaving Souji to go with her master who was the same guy who had saved you from dying when you fell off the cliff. "I hate that girl.'' "Dont say that Yuria, its not her fault to what has happened.'' "Heisuke and Shinpachi dying is her fault!!!'' You shouted. "And if she loved you then she never would have left you!!!'' "That is my fault not hers she did what she thought was right and I am on a journey to find her to tell her how I really feel about her before I die.'' "I will go with you to find her.'' Souji smiled and placed his hands on your shoulders. "No you cant, you have to find Ryunosuke that is what you need to do so please dont worry about me I have a feeling you will see me again.'' You wanted to argue with Souji but couldnt since you truely did want to find Ryunosuke. You nodded your head. "Then this is good bye for now Souji.'' "Yes but before that this now belongs back to you.'' Souji took your hair pin off the gave stone and put it in your hair since it now was yours again. "Good bye for now Yuria.'' You hugged Souji for a long time then finally let him go as you turned around and ran away as sadness was in your heart to know that Souji would die and there was nothing you could to save him but youhoped you would see him again before that will happen. Days had past since you saw Souji and you was traveling to the place Ryunosuke used to live since there was a chance he went back there. As you rode your horse down a road you soemthing lying near the road and when you got closer you became shocke dbecause it was Sanosuke. You stopped your horse and got down from it as you went to Sanosuke and saw that he was wounded and bleeding as a deep wound was in his neck. You used a cloth to cover the wound on his neck and piucked him up the best you could as you put him on the back of your horse as you got on it and made the horse begin to run as fast as it could so you can get to a place to treat Sanosuke with the medical suppiles you had that Taki and Nana had given you for your journey. You came a cross a hut and stopped your horse and got off it with Sanosuke as you brought him in the hut and began to treat him. Hours past till night came and Sanosuke woke up with bandages on his wounds. He looked over at you and became suprised when he saw you. "This is just great I must be dead if your here Yuria.'' "No your not dead.'' "Huh?'' You explained to Sanosuke everything that has happened including when you saw Souji and what he has told you. When you finished, Sanosuke sat up and wrapped his arm around you as he touched your forehead with his own. "Im glad your alive Yuria and thank you for saving me.'' "Your welcome but how did you get hurt?'' Sanosuke told you. "It always comes back to that girl Sayori.'' "From your tone Yuria it sounds like you dont like her.'' "No I dont, its her fault that Heisuke and Shinpachi is dead, and she left Souji when she said she never would leave him from what Souji told me and now you got hurt by that demon who is after her.'' "I would get hurt again if it meant I could protect her once more, I would even give my life for her.'' "But why?'' "Because I love her.'' That suprised you."What your in love with her!?'' Sanosuke laughed from your reaction. "Yes I do, but im not the only one Hijikata also loves her but he has never told her how he feels about her and Saito happens to be in a relatsionship with Sayori's sister name Chizuru.'' "All this is very shocking I never thought that you, Hijikata and Saito would ever fall in love.'' "Well we did so tell me Yuria where are you heading seeing how you didnt stay by Souji's side and go on his journey with him.'' "Im going to find Ryunosuke, I have to see him again.'' "I thought so well in that case you can take me to where Hjikata is that way it will be faster to try and find Ryunosuke insteading of it taking time since you will have me who is injuried with you.'' "Is that what you want?'' "Yes it is Yuria and dont worry we will see each other again, im sure of it.'' You smiled since you knew he was right. The night day you heaed out with Sanosuke and took him to where Hijikata would be. It took over a week but you finally reached it and when Hijikata and Saito saw you as you helped Sanosuke off your horse they looked shocked. You talked to them for a few minutes and told them to take care of Sanosuke. They looked like they wante dto ask you question to see if you really could be Yuria but you didnt have time to answer them sicne you had to find Ryunosuke so you just turned around and got on your horse since you knew Sanosuke would tell them everything. Before you left you felt like something bad had happened before youcame so you looked back and saw that Hijikata and Saiuto looked sad about something then saw two girls standing behind them a few feet away and they both had tears in their eyes. "Those two girls must be Chizuru and Sayori but which one of them is Sayori?'' You thought. A thought then hit you making your heart grow cold as you looked at the tent they had come out of. "Wait since they all look upset does this mean that Souji has died.'' You soon got your answer when one of the girls who was walking back to the tent looked at something near the tent that looked like a grave and she began to sob. You turned around and had your horse begin to run to get far away from there. "No please god no.'' You thought. Once you were far enough you got off your horse and fell to the ground on your knees as you began to cry because you knew that Souji was dead. Knowing you will never see your best friend again made your hear ache but despite that you smiled a sad smile. "At least he was able to tell that girl Sayori he loved her before he died and he was able to die with her by his side that must have made him happy in the end.'' You whispered to your self as you still cried. Once you had calmed down you continued on your journey. It took you a few weeks but you were able to get to where Ryunosuke once had lived and it was raining that day having you cover your self with a cloak so you wouldnt get wet. When you entered the place you became shocked because there was places that was on fire and men were fighting each other on the streets as well as killing each other making you realize that the war had reached this place to as the peaple who lived there was running and screaming for their lives. You rode your horse though the village hoping you will find Ryunosuke. You looked and looked but didnt find him making you think that he might not have come back here and jsut as youwere about to give up you heard a voice that sounded familair and saw two men fighting each other. One was a soldier in the war while the other looked like he lived in the village. You got closer and even though he looked different since he cut his hair you knew that the village guy was Ryunosuke. The soldier knocked the sword Rynosuke had out of his hand and went to slash him with his sword but didnt get the chance since you jumped off your horse and cut the man with your sword making the soldeir fall to the ground dead. You then grabbed Ryunosuke by his hand. "We need to get out of here, this place can not be saved there are to many of them.'' After you said that to Rynosuke you ran to your horse and got on it as did Ryunosuke since he knew you were right and you left the village. Once you were far enough, Ryunosuke told you to stop and you did as he and you got off the horse. Ryunosuke didnt look at you he just knew you were someone who saved his life and he punched his fist on a tree. "Why did the war have to reach my village, havent I lost enough, now I have to start all over again!!!'' He shouted. "First my mother, then the girl I loved and now the home I created!!!'' He punched his fist again but he soon calmed down and turned to look at you but he didnt know it was you since your face was covered by the cloak you wore. "I dont know who you are but thanks for saving me back there.'' Ryunosuke smiled at you making your emotions over flow. "Ryunosuke its me.'' Ryunosuke was suprised you knew his name but he became even more suprised when he saw you lower your hood to show your face and saw that it was you. "You cant be her, she died.'' "Its me Ryunosuke im really here.'' You told everything that happened to Ryunosuke. Ryunosuke was silent for along time then he grabbed your arm and pulled you to him as he hugged you. "Yuria, Yuria.'' He said as his body shook and you could feel him crying as his tears fell on your shouler. "Yes Ryunosuke its me, im here.'' You began to cry and hugged Ryunosuke back. Once you and Ryunsouke had stopped crying, Ryunosuke placed his hands on your cheeks as it stopped raining and he looked into your eyes. "I cant belive your really here, you have no idea how happy I am.'' Ryunosuke picked you up and spun you around as he laughed while you did the same then he put you down as he still had his arms wrapped around you and kissed you then he held you. "I am never letting you go Yuria.'' "And I will never let you go Ryunsuke.'' Ryunosuke smiled. You and Ryunosuke then got back on the horse and you began to head back to the village where Taki and Nana lived since that is where you will live again but with Ryunosuke at your side. Night had fallen so you stopped riding your horse once you came across a hut that was empty and you and Ryunosuke would spend the night there. Once you and Ryunosuke had finished eating the food you made he spoke to you. "Yuria im sorry that you lost most of the people you knew, it must have been hard for you, especially losing Souji.'' "Thank you and yes it was but I can take comfort to know that Souji died with the girl he loved being near his side and he died happy that im sure of.'' "Do you really hate that girl Sayori?'' "At first I did but when I saw her crying over losing Souji when she looked at his grave I couldnt hate her no more, for she loved Souji with all her heart and im sure she cried when Heisuke, Shinpachi and Kondou died since they were her friends, Heisuke and Shinpachi died trying to protect her since they were her friends and I know I would have done the same, I really hope I can meet her and talk face to face with her someday.'' "Im sure you will just like you will see Sansouke, Hijikata and Saito again.'' "Yeah but im sure that wont be till this war is over so until then I will live my life like always but this time with you by my side Ryunosuke.'' Ryunosuke smiled then he tackled you to the floor as he got on top of you. "I will always stay by your side Yuria and this time we will live our lives together with nothing that will tear us apart again.'' "Yes your right.'' Ryunosuke smiled again then he leaned down and kissed you. As you kissed him back you could feel his hand trying to take your clothes off. You pushed him off you. "Not gonna happen Ryunosuke.'' "Oh why not?'' Ryunosuke smirked. "I just found out the love of my life is alive and that im going to be able to live a happy life with her can you blame me for wanting to become one with her.'' You began to blush. "I understand what your saying but its not going to happen I am not ready for that yet.'' Seeing you blushing as you were panicking made Ryunosuke laugh. "Ok I can wait but I can still kiss you.'' "Huh wait a sec..mmph!?'' Ryunosuke covered your mouth with his own before you could speak another word. One year has past and the war was over and you also found out that Hijikata had died in the middle of the war fighting a demon like monster that once was Seijuro the man who had saved you and who was also Sayori's father and you also became suprised when you read that in a letter that was sent to you since it was sent from Souji, in it he explained about Hijikata dying and how Hijikata was able to tell Sayori how he loved her before he died and that Souji did die but was able to come back thanks to the blood Sayori gave him which was her demon blood and Souji became a demon and was living peacefully with Sayori in a quiet place far from villages he also said that Saito was living in the mountains in a village with his love Chizuru. Reading that letter made you cry tears of sadness that Hijikata died but you also cried happy tears to know that Souji was alive and it also said that Sanosuke was traveling the world. As for you, you was living back in the village of Taki and Nana but you no longer lived with them instead you lived with Ryunosuke a few homes down from where Taki and Nana lived. They were also glad you came back and was happy you got your memory back and was able to find the guy you loved. Souji was always sending you letters as did Sanosuke until you one day got a letter from Souji saying he was coming to visit you so you could meet Sayori and so he could see his best friend once more which of course was you. As you waited at the entrance to enter the village, Ryunosuke sighed. "Does he really have to come here?'' "Ryunosuke I know that you still dont like Souji but hes my best friend and wants to see me as I him so please try and behave.'' "Hey he should be the one who should behave when he comes he always was trying to pick a fight with me especially when it came to you.'' "That was back when he was in love with me but hes not anymore, for he has that girl Sayori that he loves.'' "Yeah I know but I still dont like him.'' You soon saw Souji and waved to him as the girl Sayori was next to him. When they reached you, you were able to finally get a good look at her. She had long dark brown hair like yours but hers was alittle longer and she had dark brown eyes like yours but hers was alittle more daker. "Shes pretty.'' You thought. You looked at Ryunosuke and saw him blushing as he looked at Sayori having you become jealous and you stomped on Ryunosuke's foot. "Thats what you get fool for looking at my girl.'' Souji said. Sayori spoke to Souji. "Souji is this the reason why you wanted to come to this village to meet these people, who are they?'' Souji looked at Sayori. "Well since were here ill tell you since I wanted to suprise you.'' Souji put his arm around Sayori's shoulder. "That idiot ovoer there is Ryunosuke and this lovely girl is none other then my best friend Yuria.'' "What!?'' You couldnt help but giggle abit at Sayori's reaction and Souji told her how he found out you were alive and the events after that as you walked the both of them to your home as you and Ryuosuke served them some food and tea as you ate and drank as well. Once Souji finished telling her everything Sayori smacked him on the head. "I cant belive you didnt tell me before we came here now I looked like a complete idiot acting like that in front of them!!!'' Souji laughed. "It wouldnt have been a suprise if I told you.'' "A suprise, give me break you just wanted to see me freak out since you like teaseing me all the time you jerk!!!'' Sayori went to smack Souji again but he grabbed her wrist pulling her close to him as he looked into her eyes. "Can you blame me, you look so cute when you freak out or get embrassed and I may be a jerk but you still love me.'' Sayori blushed but then she blushed more as you and Ryunosuke became suprised because Souji kissed Sayori right on her lips in front of you and Ryunosuke but that soon ended when Sayori pushed him away and smacked him again. Souji laughed again while Sayori just sighed and told Souji he was hopeless. Sayori then looked at you. "Its nice to meet you Yuria and it is shocking to know that you are alive.'' "Its nice to meet you to Sayori and yes everyone was quite suprised when they found out I was alive, if it wasnt for your father saving me I never would have surived that fall from the cliff and the wound I had on my chest.'' Sayori smiled a sad smile. "Yeah he was a good man but he became a beast and I had no choice but to kill him but at least hes at peace now and is with my mother.'' "Im sorry for your lose, in the letter Souji sent me he told me that you finally was able to kill the demon name Kazama that was after you.'' "Yes.'' "Im sorry, it must have been hard.'' "It was but it had to be done and I should tell you how sorry I am because of me so many of your friends who was also my friends died.'' You shook your head as you placed your hand on top of hers. "Its not your fault, at first I blamed you and hated you for them dying  but then I realized it was not your fault at all you cared for them like I did. Sayori smiled with tears in her eyes. "Thank you Yuria.'' You smiled at her. "So your really a demon Sayori and Souji is now too?'' Ryunosuke asked her. "Yes I am and because of my blood Souji is too.'' "Yeah would you like to see Ryunosuke?'' Ryunosuke nodded his head to Souji then to your suprise Souji's and Sayori's hair turned white as their eyes turned gold to show what they look like demons. "That is very cool. Ryunosuke said. They both smiled and their eyes and hair went back to normal. The both of them stayed at your home for a few days and Souji told you that he and Sayori was to marry soon and you became friends with Sayori but it was soon time for them to leave. "I look forward to seeing you again Yuria.'' "Me too me and Ryunosuke will be sure to come to your wedding.'' "I look forward to it.'' Souji wrapped his arm around Sayori's waist. "Yeah and that will be the day I can finally make you all mine.'' Sayori blushed having you laugh softly. "Make sure you take care of my best friend, Ryunosuke.'' Ryunosuke gave Souji a dirty look. "Of course I will I dont need you telling me that.'' Souji laughed then after he said bye to you, he and Sayori left the village and as they walked off they held each others hands and looked at each other with smiles on their faces. "They really love each other.'' You smiled. "Im happy for them.'' You thought. Ryunosuke grabbed your hand. "Lets go back home.'' "Yeah.'' You and Ryunosuke went back home and when night fell you made dinner and ate it with Ryunosuke. He and you then went to bed and as Ryunosuke held you close to him since the both of you share the same futon he spoke. "Maybe its time we got married.'' "Huh!?'' You began to blush. "What brought this on Ryunosuke?'' "Well I never thought about it before until I saw how happy Souji and Sayori looked to know that they would be getting married and well I want us to be even more happy then we already are.'' Ryunosuke got on top of you as he looked into your eyes. "Will you marry me Yuria and spend the rest of your live with me?'' You could feel your heart beating a mile a minute. You reached your hand up towards him and touched his cheek. "Yes I will.'' Ryunosuke smiled then leaned down and kissed you on the lips. You kissed him back and before you knew it, you could feel Ryunosuke taking your clothes off as you did his. "I love you Yuria.'' "And I you Ryunosuke.'' Ryunosuke and you began to make love and to you and him that moment and night will always be special along with many more special days and years to come.
