Sanan and I continue to walk through the streets, spreading the word of the Shinsengumi as we go. Many young men seem eager and over joyed that we even offered for them to join our ranks.

I give directions and set orders to the few men that were interested in joining us to serve the shogunate. We unfortunately encountered several unhappy ronin, but they stood clear and away from Sanan and I.

As we finished reaching the last dojo on our list I turned to Sanan, "Shall we stop for a drink?" I ask, satisfied with the progress we have made.

"Oh certainty." He says with a smile as we both head towards a dango and tea shop.

Running around the corner I take a sharp left turn which leads to the upstairs units. I try to monitor my breathing to stay quiet. But clutching onto my towel and running full speed with my clothes in my arms is not the ideal situation I want to be in.

'Where the hell are those two? Did they leave me?' I think as I run to our room quite quickly, opening the shōji door and closing it shut.

I quickly take a glimpse around and notice everything is neat and tidy, and a note is on the floor. I run over to it and quickly glimpse over it.

'Enjoy your hot springs, we are going to do our errands for the day. We left some money for lunch-' I stop reading as I hear the footsteps grow louder, thumping down the halls.

I crumble to paper and grab the bag of money and throw it in my bundle in my arms. 'Oh joy, surely he can't smell me in here can he?' I think as I take very slow and steady steps to the sliding door that leads to the balcony.

The foot steps suddenly stop right in-front of the room I am currently in, 'of course. Cause why wouldn't he have the nose of a bloodhound.' I sigh growing increasingly agitated as the time goes on.

'CANT I AT LEAST AT CLOTHED-?' I think as I run quickly behind me to the sliding doors and jump down to the terrace below. My knees instantly lurching and bouncing me back to my feet, I gather my bearings and begin to run towards the alley that is beside the inn.

I hear the door slide open once more but I don't want to spend time to see who it is because I have a wonderful idea that it is the certain bloodhound that wants to ruin my day.

Though I may not look or act like it, I myself am quite fast. With the right momentum and being fully clothed and not worrying about flashing every person I pass, I can run...And oh boy am I doing just that. Sliding through a tight squeeze I look up to see several boxes reside in my way. I chuckle as if the world is against me. I jump, my height reaching well over several of some of the boxes and continue to climb.

Using the abilities and agility I've always had is all fun and games when I'm beating everyone in my category. But when some random I meet for not even 10 minutes can do the exact things I do, makes me extremely paranoid and annoyed.

Using the speed I've gathered I decided to juke this man and run up on of the buildings walls that reside in the alley. I hear a slight gasp and the footsteps faltering slightly but they continue nonetheless.

As I reach to almost the top of the building,
I reach out with one of my arms to pull me up and maneuver myself on the building. I immediately stand up and jump off the building once more onto another and another. I look behind me to see the indigo haired male climb the building just as fast as I did.

'Jesus Christ...' I think as I look ahead and sigh, I look down from jumping over buildings to see a wagon with several horses pulling it below me. I decide to take the chance and jump down into the alley which houses the wagon and horses.

I land swiftly, leg arched out my arm continues to hold my clothes and money. The coachmen heads the sudden noise and turns around suddenly. I make a slightly smile and wave as he grows surprised to see a half naked women in his cart and part of the roof of his wagon torn.

I chuck the man a few copper coins and he immediately settles down and smiles. I huff in annoyance and turn to look out the slight opening in the back of the wagon to see if my pursuer found where I reside. I see him still on top of the building looking out, scouting for me. I smile triumphantly, and settle back down into the wagon.

'I should get dressed...'

As Amagiri and I sit down near our tea table the shōgi door swings open revealing the man we have been awaiting for, but not with the prize we have been expecting.
"She got away..." I hear Shiranui say as he walks back into our room in the inn quietly, almost silently.

"What did you just say?" I announce as if I didn't hear him, 'maybe I misheard incorrectly' I think as I place my cup of tea back down with a harsh clank.

"She has gotten away." He finishes with a frown, his normal cocky flashy demeanor completely wavering.

"How could you have allowed a feeble, half naked human woman to get away??" I announce with venom on my tongue as I march over to him not awaiting to hear his excuses.

"I don't believe she's a human...."
