As soon as they walked in, they were in awe. The estate seemed to be bigger than the outside revealed, all of them going in their own separate ways to explore.

Shinobu and Mitsuri found the kitchen, the entire design old fashioned and out of date. The storage cabinets were a deep mahogany color, no up to date kitchen devices in sight. No mixer, no microwave, no stove! The other décor was plain, a plain sign saying, "頂きます."

Sanemi and Obanai found the training room, punching bags up. Along with different training dummies, bamboo sticks, and wooden katanas leaned up on the wall. Up on the walls, there were real katanas, and different martial arts belts.

Muichiro found the library, many old scrolls and books lining the shelves. He ran his hand over the spines of the books, dust coating his fingers. He took one of the books out, "Momotaro", the cover read. 

Gyomei and Rengoku found the courtyard, wanting to step outside and get some fresh air. There were pebbles in the backyard, an engawa with cushions a chabudai, a tea set on top.

"What do you think?" Gyomei spoke, breaking the silence that had engulfed them. Rengoku hummed in confusion, watching the morning sun rise higher into the sky. "What do you think about all of this?" Gyomei clarified, Rengoku, once more, humming.

"I think...its unreal." He answered, "But also sad. We will eventually be declared dead if they never find us." Rengoku looked around. "And something tells me this place will be hard to find." He sighed. "I hope my little brother will be okay..." he muttered, trailing off.

"HEY YOU GUYS! I CALL THIS ROOM!" Uzui's loud voice called out, everyone going from their respective places to see what he was yelling about.

They saw a hallway, 10 pairs of shoji doors all lined up. Five on one side, four on the other, with a final door, on the wall facing them.

On the left, there were doors with decorative cracks, pinwheels, waves, clouds, and scales.

On the right, there were doors with decorative butterflies, hearts, flames, and gems.

The door facing them had a sun on it.

Uzui had already chosen the door with gems on it, so everyone started claiming their rooms.

Gems- Uzui

Cracks- Gyomei

Pinwheels- Sanemi

Waves- Giyu

Clouds- Muichiro

Scales- Obanai

Butterflies- Shinobu

Heart- Mitsuri

Flames- Rengoku

Now all that was left was the sun room.

"I see you all have made yourselves at home." A voice said, startling all of them, making them turn to who it was.

(Y/n) was standing there, an eyebrow raised at their defensive stances.

"No need to be so jumpy." He sighed, walking past all of their rooms. "We are the only ones in the house..." (Y/n) glanced back over his shoulder, stopping in front of the sun shoji doors and opening them with a swift movement, "If we weren't..." He stepped into the room before turning around, "I'd know."

And with that, he shut the door with a light slam, all of them blinking at this.

"Well I think we should go to bed..."
