Narrated By Jen Jen
Jen Jen: So this is the Ninja Castle…
In the middle of the forest stands a castle surrounded by a moat.
Hanzo: This castle looks like it has no door, but…
Sasuke: The door is over here!
Sasuke entered the woods and pushed on a big stone.
Hanzo: Of course there’s a hole underneath.
Saizo: Yes, there’s a pass underground connecting to the castle grounds.
Kotaro: This way, the enemies can’t break through the front gates.
Saizo: Just like I said. This is an impenetrable fort.
We went through the pass into the castle. It was a very nice castle! The garden was very beautiful. I wished that Aki was here to enjoy it.
Hanzo: Ah ha… What a splendid castle.
Saizo: In our armory, we have swords, bows, arrows and even firearms. We have also prepared plenty of food and water.
Hanzo: Impressive… but we can’t just sit in a castle all day long. Oda’s army is on its way here. Let’s make a plan to strike back!
Saizo: First of all, let’s take inventory of all of our weaponry.
Hanzo: I’ll leave it to you, and princess I need to speak with you.
I wonder what Hanzo wanted to talk about. He has a very serious look on his face as he led me to my room.
Jen Jen: What is it?
Hanzo: Jen Jen you are standing as Aki at this moment. Ninja’s around the country are uniting under Aki the descendent of Masashige Kusanoki.
Jen Jen: Yes, I know this…
Hanzo: As such…please stop special treatment of certain people.
Jen Jen: …
Hanzo: You have to survive until we get back to Iga and reunite with Aki. Even if every ninja gives their lives for you. You must live on.
I wasn’t sure what he was trying to say, but I had an Idea…
Hanzo: If you have a relationship with someone, could you still do that?
Jen Jen: Hanzo…
Hanzo: I apologizes for being harsh, but it is necessary for you… Seeing you not wanting to leave Goemon…
There was a long pause in the room as Hanzo looked into my eyes then looked away.
Hanzo: Keeping this in mind, treat Sasuke and everyone else as such…
Hanzo again looked right at me.
Hanzo: I’ll tell you directly. Sasuke is young. Just refuse his advances.
Again another long pause in the room. Hanzo stood up and walked to the door.
Hanzo: If you accuse me…
I waited sometime as I then got up and left my room. I needed a breather after that weird convo. I wasn’t watching where I was going, and I bumped right into Sasuke.
Sasuke: Hmmm, was Hanzo lecturing you?”
I didn’t say anything I looked away from him holding my arm awkwardly.
Sasuke: Sorry for liking you…
Sasuke grabbed my hand.
Sasuke: But no matter what I do, I can’t stop loving you.
A sudden flash back flew into my mind. Sasuke standing before me…
Sasuke: Jen Jen…Be mine.
Sasuke is always so forward with his feelings. I want to let you know my feelings too, but…
Jen Jen: Lord Hanzo said we need to sleep in separate rooms tonight.
Sasuke: …
Jen Jen: We’re in the middle of war. I… As the princess I can’t treat you specially.
Sasuke: Jen Jen! Is that really okay with you?!
Jen Jen: …
I started at Sasuke without saying anything.
Sasuke: You think I’ll just agree with whatever Hanzo says?!
Jen Jen: Sasuke I am the ninja princess…I have a…big responsibility…
Sasuke: DAMMIT!
BAM!
Sasuke punched the wall with anger.
Sasuke: I don’t like it one bit! He can’t keep us apart Jen Jen!
Saizo: What the hell are you doing?! You’re in the hall, so I can hear you!
Jen Jen: Lord Saizo!
I was a bit shocked seeing Saizo. He can out of nowhere…I guess my senses are off from this fight with Sasuke.
Saizo: Must be tough, getting hit on by this bratty little monkey.
Sasuke: Saizo! You stay the hell out of this!
Saizo: Quit being noisy and get back to your preparations. We need to get fresh air sometimes, you know.
Saizo and Sasuke looked at each other for a moment. Sasuke suddenly smiled.
Sasuke: You’re right!
Jen Jen: He’s what?
Saizo: I’m always right.
Saizo and Sasuke led me to the stables. The each of us got onto a horse and rode into the mountain on horseback.
Jen Jen: Is it really okay to be taking a ride at a time like this?
Saizo: It’s fine. Lord Hanzo is way too serious.
Jen Jen: Oh…
Saizo: There is still time before Oda’s army finds our castle. Let’s go on a little trip.
Jen Jen: Where to?
Saizo: It’s a secret!
I had a cold chill running up my spine. I never imagined Saizo sounding so happy!
