After misunderstanding Giyuu for years, Sanemi never bothered to know a single thing about him, calling him a 'loner'.
Giyuu had also formed an image of Sanemi as a 'hot-tempered man' in his mind.
But as time passed,
The two finally decided to give...
Sorai flew the fastest he could, quickly making his way to the Ubuyashiki Mansion, his eyes were still watery when he reached the entrance.
He flew to Kagaya, panicking as he landed on his arm and told him everything.
Kagaya's eyes widened.
"Sanemi..."
At once, he called for the Kakushis.
"Yes Master?" The helper men stood right in front of him, alarmed.
"Bring Sanemi from the south, his crow will lead you! Now!" Kagaya ordered, his heart racing with concern for Sanemi.
"He mustn't die..." Kagaya muttered, his eyes darkening.
"Yes Master!" They quickly made their way to bring Sanemi's body back to the headquarters.
They ran fast.
"Hurry, Hurry! Please!" Sorai shouted out, flying even faster.
As soon as they reached down the mountain, near the rocky terrain, their eyes widened at the sight of Sanemi's blood-covered, collapsed body.
"Shinazugawa-Sama!"
They quickly carried him on their back, grunting a little as they panted out.
"We need to take him to the Butterfly Mansion, now!"
They nodded, rushing fast as they made their way to the Butterfly Mansion.
"Be fast, come on!" The Kakushis hurried, running back to the headquarters while Sorai flew to Giyuu's Estate.

Giyuu was sitting on the backyard with Kanzaburou on his lap.
He was bubbling with joy at the thought of Sanemi returning soon.
He kept telling Kanzaburou how much he wanted to see Sanemi's face even if it was only for once.

"Ne, when do you think he'll return, Kanzaburou...?"
"I don't know that, Giyuu... But I know one thing for sure, it's that you are being restless again..." The crow replied, warming himself up on Giyuu's lap.
Giyuu chuckled softly, patting his head. "That I am... I really am restless, I want to see him..."
He blushed softly. "And maybe even tell him..."
He gasped softly at his thoughts of confessing, covering his face up in embarrassment.
That's when he heard Sorai's faint cawing from a distance.
Giyuu looked up in the sky at the flying crow, squinting his eyes.
