VII. KYOTO.𓍯𓂃

·:*¨༺ ♱ "THEN I DIE PRETTY." ♱ ༻¨*:·

A sun setting.. whilst waking up to see that your lover had gone elsewhere did not feel great..

Plus, knowing that there's a war with some white man called A-bitch-jerk Foul.. or something. I dressed up nicely, dolled myself up which surprised my servants and maids since they expected me to act as if the world ended. Well, almost did if Mizu didn't show up last night to make me feel.. sane. And by making me feel sane I meant Mizu eating me out. I also packed my stuff just in case I needed to evacuate from Kyoto, and of course.. Mizu's gift, a string that was sewn onto her cloak, a string that I would use as a bracelet. I had to see Mizu for the last time..

I just had to, I can't help it. She was definitely still in Kyoto, but first, I had to visit my 'soon-to-be-in-laws'. A harsh journey but I promised myself no matter what, I'll still find a way to get back to Kyoto and see Mizu off one last time. I could feel my hands tremble as I sat in my palanquin, I just hope Mizu would be alright..

(TIME SKIP)
My palanquin soon stopped in front of a castle, surely it was bigger than my mansion and my father's.. I could see why he decided to marry me off to the Tokugawa's son. Once I stepped inside, I met my 'fiancé' he looked at me like I was some piece of paper. No reaction, not even a smile or bow when I bowed curtsied with a heavy kimono. "How rude of that man! Does he not have any manners?" I talked, scoffing to myself. My servants tried to lower down my voice, "princess.. please lower down your voice!.." I rolled my eyes, I couldn't care less.

"Like I care if that arrogant man could hear me! I bet his favourite sex position is fucking another woman except his wife!" I said and just then, I bumped into him. "Oh, pleasure to bump into you again my fiancé." I said, playing it off. He just rolled his eyes at me! Wow! The audacity- well, I did just shit talk but I was telling the truth, was I not? "Whatever.." I said rolling my eyes and continued walking around the castle, bumped into him again in the garden. "Watch it." He says sternly and I scoffed, adjusting my kimono.

"You must be stalking me, or maybe you're just a bad luck charm that loves to follow me around. Don't you live here? Why are you walking as if it's your first time here?" I crossed my arms and he simply sighed. "Look, I'm not a stalker. Or a bad luck charm, princess. It's my house and I can admire it to the fullest anytime I want, plus, I'm not interest in a girl like you." He says and I rolled my eyes, then in a sarcastic way, bowed. "What a coincidence. Why's the reason? Because you like whores?" I said with a smirk.

"Sure. Bitch.." He whispered under his breath at the last part but I was not braindead. "Great to know. Cunt.." We scoffed at each other's faces and walked away, a painful encounter but I soon got back to Kyoto. However.. there seemed to be some commotion happening. Guards?.. but with guns, something I've never seen before. My eyes widened in realisation, I needed to find Mizu but just then gun shots erupted and everyone screamed, some ran in fear. "Stay here." I said and my servants were confused but immediately held onto me. "Princess, what are you doing?!"

"Nothing." I said, grasping onto my katana tighter. "This is not your war, and you have to go to Tokyo for safety now." My servant said. "Father would be proud of me no?" I asked, trying to find an excuse. "A princess can't wield a sword in a heavy kimono. That's final." My maids warned me. "And who are you to tell me?" I glared and walked away, a stubborn princess I was.. I searched all around in hopes to find Mizu, I knew she would be at the Shogun's castle. So I used the sewers and found Akemi, "Akemi!" I said in shock.

"What are you doing here?!" Akemi asks, "I.. I'm finding someone." I said and she stopped me. "No, you can't enter. It's too dangerous." Akemi says, grabbing onto my arm. She then notices the katana I was holding onto. "Who exactly are you finding.. your clan is not even close to the Shogun." She asks sternly, she does not want to see someone she sees as a close friend in danger. "Mizu, where is Mizu?" I asked, her eyes widened. "Mizu.. is your lover?" She asks, shocked. She looks at me in disbelief

"Yes, I do not care for anymore questions. Whether you know Mizu or how I know.. him." I said, she lets go of me. "Mizu is still in there, I know what it's like to not be able to be with someone you love. I won't judge you. But I wish to see you alive." She says, pulling me into a tight hug which I returned. "I will." I said and we pulled away, she went to escape as I kept going. Desperately trying to find her, the gunshots shook me but I knew better. I stumbled upon few of the enemies, they raised their guns at me.

I glared at them and tore my kimono. "I won't die in filthy hands, people who work with those disgusting white men who try to take over our country must not see broad daylight." I said sternly and charged at them, one shot me in the arm but that made me want to kill them more. Blood splattered around, their guts spilling out when I cut them in half. I couldn't bear seeing it, I had to keep going.. but just then fire erupted. "Mizu.." I mutttered.

You won't die,
Mizu..

The girl the samurai loved, prayed.
