Seeing Miss Canova cry made me remember about my past, this time where I've been attacked by an army after I showed Mikio who I really was. It hurts, I feel very understanding. After I told her not to cry anymore, she straightened her back up to me, and when I took off my glasses to look at her properly, she told me my eyes were beautiful. That is the second time I've ever heard it in my life, but the first time someone really thinks it truly.

Me : So yours are... I responded.

And I think so, clear but dark at the same time... I like them a lot.

Her features are so soft. She has a button nose with a little bump on it, thick but pretty eyebrows, and a big mouth with voluptuous lips, very different from Japanese women that I know. Her long dark hair are falling on her shoulder to below her chest, and a fringe covers her forehead. This woman definitely is like no woman i've ever seen.

Mizu : Take this.

I took a knife out of my pocket, one I've forged at Mr Eiji's.

Me : Thank you... I've lost mine after Mr Weeler gave me his money.

She wipes away her tears and takes the knife.

We go.

To reach Mr Jones, the famous firearm-maker, we need to cross the city without meeting any policeman to be sure no one will recognize me. Since Mr Fowler fled, I can't confirm that no one has been ordered to kill me. It took hours to join Mr Jones' with Miss Canova, but whatever. I think she doesn't do that on purpose, I can walk at her rythm. Plus, she guides me, so I have nothing to say. Without her, my way would have been way longer for sure. The sun sets, we finally see the end of the journey.

Ophelia : It's here. Miss Canova said.

I have a feeling that I can't explain. It's too calm... I gently open the door to take a look and see about ten armed man waiting in front of me. Some have swords, some other seems to have guns... I quickly close it back and block it with all my weight.

Me : HIDE ! I yell at Miss Canova.

She understands and runs behind a tree. I feel some punches coming from behind the door as I think of a way to beat them all, but they slowly start becoming too strong and pushed me away. When I turn back, I take my sword faster than ever and face the men who are slowly approaching. They are now ten against me, but I will not flee. No one could prevent me from getting the information I need.
One of the man runs into me as two others rise their guns to shoot me. I try to move the more that I can for them not to reach me, bend down, and kill the first swordsman. With a huge sword stroke, I manage to touch another man at the same time, who's now injured, I take his gun and hides it behind my back. 8 left. As a gun owner shoots, I can escape the bullet and cut his head off, but then I feel a kind of pain that I've never felt before. One of them shot my left arm. I moan in pain and by reflex, close my eyes. One other man shots my leg. I'm bleeding on the ground.

The men stoped attacking and laugh.

One soldier : Haha ! And that is the samurai they told us was feared in his country ? One bullet more and he's dead !

I look deeply at the speaker's eyes with so much rage. I try to stand up but felt again. They laugh.

Suddenly one of the gun soldiers falls down and lays on the ground without even screaming, and as he also falls I can see Miss Canova, blood all over her face, get another one and stab him right in the middle of the neck. They all turn around. During this few time I can perceive another dead man a bit further, she must have killed him when they were all focused on me. Smart. The 4 left ones are now against her, two with guns and two swordsmen.

Miss Canova : THEY ONLY HAVE 5 BULLETS IN THEIR GUNS, MIZU !

I understood.

One of the men raises his gun, and another his sword at the same time, but Miss Canova used the iron door of the gunmaker's building to protect herself. He shot 3 times at the door, and is now out of bullets. The other soldier approaches with his sword but Ophelia escaped the attack, took the man with her two arms and guided him against his teammate, who shot at him instead of her. 3 left in front of her, a gun and a sword and a man with nothing. No one's attacking anymore.

I can notice Miss Canova's breath getting faster and faster. It seems like they all forgot me. I take the gun I stole earlier with my right hand, try to aim the best I can, and shot the one with a firearm as he's the most dangerous. 2 left, they quickly turned back to her to face me. I throw my sword at the swordsman's chest. One left. The last man looks everywhere, one time at me, one time at Miss Canova, then me again, etcetera. She takes a gun that one of the men threw down at her feet when dying, and raises up against him.

Ophelia : Beaten by a woman. She calmly said.

One shot in the head, and he's dead. She joins the man I hurted earlier who's screaming for help, and killed him too.

In about ten minutes, all the men were down, and only four died by my hands. Impressive...
