Yoshiwara
-Hinowa Residence-

2:00 AM

Tsukuyo raised her head after she sensed someone outside their window...

She puffed smoke, "Welcome back, Aimi" greeted Tsukuyo at the woman who has pink hair, pair of deep brown eyes, and wearing a white cropped kimono and a long pink skirt. "chuz! Did you miss me already, tsukuyo-san?", "I'm glad you called me". Tsukuyo put her pipe down on the dining table and poured Aimi some tea. "Sorry for being late! I was having a hard time analyzing Daki's hair DNA" Aimi told her.
"Is the old man almost finished?", Tsukuyo asked. "Yup, 2-3 more days and we are going! I'm actually pretty excited to invite them! But after all, they can't say no,".

Tsukuyo was a bit unsettled, "Aimi, we got to be careful, we are going to a different world." "Chuz! And don't worry, I'll explain all of these to them tomorrow." Aimi exclaimed, "and I gotta say, you improved more, Aimi. I guess the darling of lust is more skilled now, especially the abilities you have." Aimi blushed, "I'm flattered Tsukuyo-san, but you're right, even my stalking ability is worth a million yen if I say so myself."

Sakura Tree Park

12:10 PM

Kagura and sadaharu were sitting on the grass under a tree, Kagura was munching on her sukonbu while sadaharu ran around.

 "what a huge dog!" Shouted a little boy with excitement. Kagura looked at the direction where she heard a cheery tone and walked towards it. The boy looked cheerful, he had pale-like yellow-colored hair and green eyes, and he was holding a bag with rice balls and cakes. "You should try patting him, he's really soft" kagura invited him. "Can I?", "sure!". The boy brushed sadaharu's head, and as soon as sadaharu was relaxed he shrunk. The boy jumped "WOAH, nee-san, h-how did he do that?!", Kagura chuckled, "don't worry, it's normal. 2 years ago something happened to him and made him like this, my name is Kagura by the way, and this "little" dog is Sadaharu." Kagura smiled at the him, "my name is Hajime! Nice to meet you, Kagura-nee-san and Sadaharu." He gladly greeted them while petting Sadaharu's back, then he glanced at Kagura's hair ornament. that looks very familiar- hm... He thought. 

"What's a little boy like you doing here, Hajime? Where are your parents?" Kagura asked, "oh that's right! I'm supposed to be giving these to them. Oh, and I'm kind of running late, I had a little trouble earlier at the convenience store and I STALLED HERE." Hajime panicked, "you should hurry up haha, or you'll get in trouble, whoever asked you to buy those must be hungry", "we just arrived here yesterday- I should go or he'll scold me again-" Hajime was interrupted by a voice behind kagura, "you're too late, Hajime". Kagura didn't turn around to see who it was, she didn't know why, but that voice she just heard was very familiar.

Kabuki district
-Otose's snack shop-

1:30 PM

Aimi is sitting on one of the shop's stools while drinking red booze. " What's your name again?" Otose asked. "Aimi, Aimi Tanaka, from Yoshiwara!". "From Yoshiwara? Then are you a prostitute" Catharine was hit on the head by Otose. Aimi laughed and exclaimed: "yes! I am a member of hyakka as well" Aimi smiled.

Otose and Catharine were surprised to know that this woman is a hyakka. "What brings you here? There are many snack shops near your place, doesn't it?", "I'm here to talk with the Yorozuya, and I guess maybe the Shinsengumi as well, didn't Shinsengumi arrive just a day ago?".

Just after Aimi asked otose, a man with perm hair came in. "Hey old hag, here" Gintoki threw an envelope with money inside. Otose took the envelope, "this is just 1 month's worth of rent, you owe me 5 months" Otose was irritated. Gintoki took a seat beside Aimi, "isn't that good enough? I'll pay you the others back promptly. We just need more job requests" Gintoki sighed. Otose thought that it was too tiring to argue with Gintoki while a new customer was present, so she let it slide, for now.

Aimi looked excited as she faced Gintoki. "Hello Gintoki-san, I'm Aimi, I'm a friend of Tsukuyo-san's and I've seen you a couple of times now every time you visit Yoshiwara". Gintoki looked at Aimi lazily, "what is this, a confession?", Gintoki asked. "Now now, I just really wanted to see you, you see- I have a job request for you. Don't worry, we'll pay a good amount"
Gintoki looked at her as if he smelled a fortune in this request. 

Gintoki's Apartment (Yorozuya Residence)

Aimi entered the yorozuya residence and sat in the living room.
"Hello Aima-san, nice to meet you, you're here for a job request huh?"
Shinpachi greeted. Aimi looked at him and thought how cool he looked yet plain at the same time. Aimi approached Shinpachi and lifted his chin up slightly "Well aren't you cute, nice to meet you too", Shinpachi blushed, " U-uh, thank you, I-i should get some tea" Shinpachi walked to the kitchen to get some tea. He's bad in taking compliments, not to mention a virgin as well, Aimi thought.
Gintoki sat on the chair in front of Aimi while Shinpachi gives her tea. "You're one of tsukuyo's crew, huh. So, Aimi-chan, what kind of job are you proposing?" Gintoki asked in a deadpanned tone.
Aimi shrugged with excitement, "it's kind of a long story, are you ready?" Gintoki and Shinpachi looked at each other.

Aimi's Narration;

A year ago, after Tsukuyo-san took me in, I started doing a lot of missions for yoshiwara. In one of my missions, I encountered a strange man. His name was Dakiro. He was talking to one of his brothers, Den. They were one of the clients at a nearby inn but my instincts were telling me to follow them since they were acting really weird, so I did with good stealth. They went under a sewer, I didn't like that idea though.

They were talking about their "clan revival"...
"I found the race we were looking for, brother. But, their blood and strength are too overwhelming to transmit, their blood is already tainted with Altana." Said Den, "Don't worry, I've mentioned this to Dr. Itos and he said he's done, and after I receive the traveling device I'll kill him afterward. Their blood here isn't to be obtained, but I'm not surprised after what happened years ago."
I escaped successfully after hearing all of it and did some research. I followed them for a month until one day, they caught me.

Tsukuyo found me and helped me. We weren't seriously injured but we managed to escape. The three of the brothers were together and they had over 50 or more of their comrades with them, not to mention the brothers had abilities, but we did collect a good amount of information.

When I was fighting them they dropped a small orb that contains some strange materials and picked it up. They had a lot of weird orbs by the looks of it. And that was the last time I saw them. The one thing you want to know is that they are up to no good, they have a goal that will sacrifice many innocents just for the sake of reviving a dangerous blood thirsty clan.

Gintoki and Shinpachi widened their eyes as if they were having a stage of deja vu.

The three brothers were strong, but as far as I know they have a leader, I once heard them talk about someone as their master. Osamu was the only name I heard.
We were sure that they will come to find us after what happened but they didn't, they must be busier than I thought, nor they were stalking us as well but they didn't. We did a lot of research, and it's a lot, and I don't want to spend the whole day talking about this but, in short,

Do you want to travel through different dimensions with us?
