Voyage of Unfamiliar: Gintama Fanfiction

Stronger the Better

They all sat down for tea, except for Kondo and Kento. Kento wanted to serve the guests the snacks his mom made. I'm sorry, everyone... Kondo thought.
"Haha, it's been 3 years already? It was a hard training they said, how did it go, Chief Toushi?" Kondo smiled, "It was fine. The training was not suitable for lazy-asses though" he replied as he looked at Sougo. Sougo noticed it and sipped his tea, "don't look at me like that, Hijikata-san, my skills right now are probably more vital and stronger than yours" sougo scoffed. Hijikata was infuriated but decided to ignore it to not make a scene. Ever since Hijikata and most of the Shinsengumi left earth to train, Kondo retired and automatically made Hijikata the Chief, but since they left, Nobume was the one who lead them for a while.

A few minutes later...
"|Bzz|", Tsukuyo's phone rang.
Phone call Convo
"Aimi?"
"Tsukuyo-san, I need you to come here, Umibozu-san told me he's coming"
"Okay, I'm on my way"
*Beep*

"Did Aimi-chan call you?" Kagura asked, Hijikata, Sougo, and even Hajime glanced at her with wonder as their curiosity formed greatly.
"Yeah, she said your father was coming", Kagura's eyes widened, she was itching for more info about their situation with her family, "Tsuki, I should come with you, Papi's going to find me later anyway" Kagura ensured, Tsukuyo nodded, "Otae, thank you for the tea", " that must be very important, Thank you for the cake too!" Otae said. "And Shinsengumi, Aimi will call you, so please wait" Tsukuyo informed and left Hijikata and the others in relief. Sougo noticed Kagura being in a hurry, "committing eat-and-run again, China?" He snickered, Kagura glared at him with a pout, "Hmph, whatever, you jerk. I really want to punch your stupid face right now if you'd know".
Both Tsukuyo and Kagura left.

Otae and Kento escorted them to the door while Kondo laughed. "Hah! It's been a long time seeing you two kids fight, I'm sure the both of you are glad to see each other", Kondo assumed. Sougo scoffed and sighed, " I thought she'd change her temper but I was wrong,"
But I'm not disappointed Sougo thought. Sougo thought before that Kagura would lose interest in him since he knew she'd grow up, but even though they've both matured a little, they were both still the same as ever, and he was relieved about that but he wasn't sure why. "So you and Kagura-nee-san were childhood friends. So the ornament I saw in your coat pocket belongs to her after all- ouch!" Hajime exclaimed after Sougo pinched his cheek, "you shouldn't snoop other people's stuff" he informed Hajime, 'don't snoop' my ass, Hijikata thought. "But, man, kagura-chan grew up well. I heard from Otae that a lot of young men from her hostess club often talk about her and they were always curious about her since Kagura-chan doesn't go to shopping districts too often. I even heard from Shinpachi that there were a lot of men asking her out and giving her love letters but she always reject and ignore them. Well, what can I say? Some people even give her names like the Yato Goddess or something." Kondo explained. Kondo got Sougo's attention seriously, "hm, is that so? Men these days are too easy. Falling for a gluttonous girl with a sharp tongue like her" Sougo clicked his tongue. Kondo just chuckled; I can't blame him for being irritated about this, both of them have known each other for years, *sigh* you're making your old man cry, Sougo, Kondo thought. "You three must be quite skilled now. And Hajime, I only met you through letters, and this is our first meeting in person, so I want you to be as comfortable as you can be here" Kondo smiled and patted his head. Hajime blushed and smiled pleasingly.
"We are stronger now, the stronger the better since we always get dangerous missions now and then, even outside earth and when we were training on Aku Planet." Hijikata put out his smoke "especially the new mission we're in" he added.

-Somewhere in Edo near the ocean-

2:54 PM

"Where did you go last night? I was supposed to have a midnight snack last night but I saw the door unlocked and when I knocked on your room, you weren't there" Kamui asked Nobume. Kamui, Nobume, and Abuto were in an area somewhere in Yoshiwara with no people around. "I went out to check on the palace and see how it's going, and why were you knocking on my door last night?" she answered, "did you have a welcome home party or something?" Kamui ignored her question and asked while smiling, Nobume just stood there wearing an emotionless expression, "I didn't show myself to them, though, I don't think they know I'm back home. The old man last night doesn't seem the type of person to spread the news about anything.", "Why aren't you telling them you're back?", Kamui asked but Nobume didn't answer, so Abuto sighed and patted both of their heads, dropping his umbrella. " what was that for?" Kamui asked smiling irritatingly while Nobume didn't mind. "Sorry, it looked like you both needed it", Nobume turned back away while the two men argue and smiled a little, hiding her small glimmer from the two yato men. Nobume was glad that she wasn't alone, though before she always do all of her missions and assassinations all by herself, and she felt like even though this was serious, she still enjoyed the investigations and missions they were doing, well slightly, she thinks.

"You're here", Umibozu stood behind them, as they all looked at him. "Kamui, I keep telling you to reply in every message I send to you," Umibozu told him, "hm? I have no reason to, besides, I always read your messages",
sheesh, being protective now, aren't we, Umibozu? Abuto thought.
Umibozu groaned and approached them, "I'm glad you're all here" he greeted them, "why did you call us?" Nobume asked, "Ah, Nobume-chan, I heard that the three of you were traveling space investigating every planet you encounter for a year, and I heard you three happened to overlook the Mosun Clan", Nobume's eyes broadened, "that's... That's the thing Kamui and Nobume-chan focused on" Abuto informed Umibozu. "If so, come with me, I'll explain everything to you".

...

-Gengai's Workshop-

" Gengai-san, can't you believe it? We're done!", Aimi said enthusiastically. "I could've finished this earlier if you didn't talk that much" Gengai complained. Aimi smiled.

Umibozu and the others arrived in front of the workshop. "This is...?" Kamui starred at it confused, "The old man's workshop?" Nobume presumed. Umibozu opened the door and saw Aimi and Gengai, but the thing Kamui, Abuto, and Nobume glanced at was the machine. The machine was big and it looked like it was made out of recycled materials, but some parts of it were glowing.
Aimi actively approached them as soon as she saw them. "Chuz! I'm Aimi, nice to meet you, you must be Chief Nobume, and the former commander and vice commander of the first division of the Harusame" she smiled, the three of them were numb, how could she know that much when she's just a stranger to them.
Ara, Kamui, huh? Umibozu and Kouka's firstborn. What a handsome young man he is, his looks must be from his mom, no offense Umibozu-san, teehee! And Nobume-chan, she looks so gorgeous! Wait, these two worked together too. Aimi thought. "Come in!" Aimi greeted them while taking out a notebook and writing something. Gengai greeted Umibozu and sat down, resting.
"What's this all about, baldy?" Kamui asked. "Don't worry, just listen to me".

...
Moments later...

"So are you guys willing to come?", "count me out, boss, I'll just stay here" Abuto quickly responded besides, these two were the ones who were interested in this freak show of a clan, he thought, leaving Kamui and Nobume speechless. Kamui glanced at Umibozu.

"What's this about our bloodline and not the other yato's?" Kamui asked seriously, which Nobume noticed. Kamui barely take things seriously, so this was new to her. "Your mom was an important figure before, and these scumbags want to take them to revive a dead clan that was meant to be dead", Kamui's left brow raised, "what?", "The mosun clan was dead for a reason, they weren't supposed to exist in the first place either. Reviving them will bring trouble to other planets. The Mosun Clan was dead for 300 years now, and the three brothers won't go far back in time", Umibozu sighed.

Kamui stayed quiet for a bit and Nobume was thinking if she should go or stay and investigate. "about mom", Umibozu and the others looked at Kamui, "what are you not telling us, damned baldy?" Kamui asked with a serious tone, Umibozu looked down and faced him, "....I, I'm taking this seriously with others helping me".
Aimi stood, "It's going to be tomorrow. By the way, Umibozu-san, did you collect Altanas?" Aimi asked, Umibozu sighed in disappointment, "no, I found the powerful ones 3 years ago, and I presume there were still a little bit left, but... They were all destroyed", Aimi, Nobume, and Kamui were stunned. "I'm not surprised, they found out about me a few months ago," Aimi said, "But we'll just have to figure it out tomorrow" she smiled.

...
"Tsukii, you're coming, right?", Kagura asked Tsukuyo. Kagura, Sadaharu, and Tsukuyo were close by Gengai's workshop. "I am".
