Taimanin : The Ancient One

Finding the Yakuza brothers

It has been a day since Sakura and the other Taimanin noticed Asagi had gone missing. Some of the Taimanin were very worried, if she had been taken by the enemy. The girls had been serching every brothel to find her, even trying their connections to know if Asagi had been spotted, but nothing. 

This was worrying Sakura and Murasaki even more. They hadn't been getting the best of sleep over the last couple of days since their former leader had gone missing. They hoped she was okay.

"Mmmmmhm...ugh..."

Moans had escaped from Asagi's mouth as her eyes slowly opened to see a dimly lit room but what she saw was a ceiling....that was full of bats. She gasped but the bat's did not move, as they remined upside down from their hanging points. Asagi could count about fifty at least. There were probably even more of them up there.

As she rose up slightly, she began to look around her surroundings. She was in a very fancy room, she was in a massive king sized bed that made her look small in it. She could see from a window that it was now morning,  examining the room more, she saw an old fireplace over on the other side opposite to the bed. The room was dimly lit with some candles lighting the room with ornate wooden furniture.

Her head started to ache after she recalled the memories after her 'date' with Kyouske. Her now ex-boyfriend who was working with Oboro and the mysterious vampire who saved her....what was his name?....Kenji was it? 

Her thoughts were interuppted when she heard a very loud knock on the door. She looked up at the bedroom door. There she saw him. The man who had saved her from being raped last night. Kenji stepped into the room with his back opening the door, when he turned around he had a tray of food in his hands. Kenji noitced she was awake.

"Good Morning." Kenji said.

Asagi said nothing as she watched him walk over to her right side and placed the try beside her on the bed.

"I thought you might have been hungry, so I cooked you some breakfast." Kenji said. "What you have there is Miso Shiru. Itadakimasu." he added.

Asagi unconsciously swallowed as she smelled the food. She had this before, but the smelled much better than her own recipe. She could see the blocks of tofu,the dried wakame seaweed, some spring onions. It just made her mouth water. She watched as Kenji stood up and had her back turned away from her so she could eat without him looking over her shoulder. He went over to the nearby fire place and he took out his book and began to read he last was.

Asagi looked back at the Miso Shiru and she took the chop sticks and began to eat the soup dish. As soon as it entered her mouth, her eyes widened, she could taste the saltyness from the red miso that was in the dish.

'So tasty~' Asagi moaned with a bite of her food, closing her eyes in pleasure, it was SO much better than her recipe of the dish. After a few more minutes of eating, she had finished. Asagi smiled in satisfaction from how delicious it was.

"Well you certianly enjoyed that." Kenji replied as he closed his book before he stood up and walked over to pick up the tray and the bowl and placed them on a nearby table. Asagi blushed from her antics of eating her breakfast that this handsome man had cooked for her. Kenji got a nearby chair and moved over near her. Kenji looked at her in the face. Asagi just couldn't take her eyes off his handsome face. I don't think any man could get more handsome than this person.

"I understand you have some questions to answer. So, by all means ask away." Kenji said truthfully.

"Well, first of. I'd like to know your name since you saved me from being raped." Asagi answered.
