The Destructive Droplets! (KNY) [ON HIATUS]

Ch-4 (A Certain Blue Butterfly)

After finally settling down from all the laughing, Giyuu and Shinobu heard familiar caws.  

It was their crows.

"CAW! CAW! PILLAR MEETING! CAW!"

"HEAD THERE WITH YOUR GUESTS! CAW!"

"Caw! Giyuu, Oyakata-Sama says there's a mission on Mt. Natagumo! Caw!"

"That was a while ago..." 

"I'm sorry, Giyuu! Caw!"

"Don't worry." 

Shinobu remembered how there was a Pillar Meeting to be held. 

And the day before, when Oyakata-Sama told them something...

... that they had to bring guests. 

She then remembered what had happened. 

"I'm sorry, but my flamboyant wives can't come!"

"Kanao would be on a mission, and Aoi is already busy." 

"Kyaaaaa! Really? But wait..."

"...my entire family is going on a holiday! I'm so sorry!"

"No worries, Mitsuri. And Oyakata-Sama, I already have a guest. Kaburamaru."

"Namu..." 

"Tch."

"What's the shape of that cloud?"

"MHM! I'M SORRY, BUT SENJURO HAS CAUGHT A COLD! SO HE WON'T BE COMING! 

"..." 

"Very well then, my children, but if any dear ones of yours get free, don't hesitate to bring them along." 

Shinobu looked at Giyuu, who had the same 'Wait...' face as hers. 

"Nope." 

"Oh, really? Well then, Gi-Gi, remember what you said?" 

...said Makomo, holding a flower crown while smiling...

...evilly.  

"No." 

"Oh really? Are you sure you're the honest little Gi-Gi I knew?"

"Who NEVER broke promises?" 

"Plus..."

She proceeded to menacingly take out a feather. 

"So..."

"...choose your fate."

Giyuu maintained his poker face, but his eyes gave it away.

He was terrified of the petite, little girl known as Makomo.

"..."

"Guess my reputation among the Hashira is already broken..."

*sighs*

"Okay...put the flower crown on me." 

Shinobu looked on as Makomo put the flower crown on Giyuu's head. 

"CAW! CAW! HEAD OVER, RIGHT NOW!" 

'Tomioka-San looks quite handsome...'

'...yet cute.'

Sabito just stared at everyone. 

'Poor Giyuu...'

He thought.

"Oh, by the way, you both are gonna be my guests for the Meeting."

"Yes! I'm looking forward to it!"
