Emi enters the convenience store and smiles, "It's so nice and here! And everything is cheap!" "Welcome." Emi turns towards the counter and laughs, "It's nice to see you, Odd Jobs!" "Emi-Chan! Did you finally seal the deal with Baka Nii-Chan?" "Should I answer that? I don't want it to become gossip." Gintoki picks his nose and flicks it off his finger, "We only gossip among ourselves. Don't worry about it." "Yes, Emi-San! Don't worry about it." Emi sighs, "If you must know then yes, me and Kamui have sealed the deal." Kagura giggles, "Ew she's going to have Baka Babies." "Ehhhh!!! Not like that!! We're dating, nothing else! Plus Kamui said he doesn't want to have children." "Oh? But his kids would be strong and then he wouldn't have to worry about finding a strong warrior to fight. What an idiot, I see where Kagura gets it from." Kagura hits Gintoki, "That's mean, Gin-Chan!" Shinpachi adjusts his glasses as the two start a fight, "So Emi-San how is it dating him?" "It's pretty nice, but he asked something weird early." "Oh yeah, what's that?" "He asked me if I would die if I left the planet." Kagura stops fighting with Gintoki, "Did he really ask that-aru?" "Um yes, I asked him what it meant but he avoided the question." Kagura sighs, "Would you like to know why?" "If you don't mind telling me..." Kagura leans on the counter, "Well you see....."

Emi runs down the dimly lit street, Kagura's words resonate through her head. ~Our Mommy died when we were younger.. The reason for that was because Papi took her off the planet she lived on. If she stayed on that planet then she was practically immortal-aru. But they fell in love so she decided to go with Papi. Kamui found out and because of that he became the person he is today. I guess he asked that question to make sure he wasn't going to make a flower wilt.~ "That idiot! If he was so worried about that then why didn't he tell me! I can't be a good girlfriend if you won't share these things with me!" Emi runs into her house, desperate for breath. Kamui sits up, "Emi? What's wrong? Wait where's the food." She rest her hands on her knees and takes a deep breaths. He stands up and stands in front of her, "Hey, what happened?" Emi stands up straight and throws her arms around his neck, knocking them both onto the floor. "What's the big idea!?" "You idiot! Whether it's guilt, sadness, anger, or even happiness I want you to share these things with me! Even if it happened a long time ago." "What are you talking about?" Emi sits up and hits his chest, "You know exactly what I'm talking about! That question you asked me earlier confused me, but thanks to a certain girl I now know what it meant." "That kind of thing is none of your concern." "It does concern me! I'm your girlfriend, I'm supposed to be there for you no matter what." "So now you want to play the Shoujo heroine? Emiko, take this as a warning. Don't meddle with stuff that doesn't concern you or you will regret it." Kamui forces himself up, knocking her to the ground. He grabs his umbrella and leaves. "I don't understand what just happened.. Why is he so defensive about this?!"
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Emi lays in her futon and covers her head with her blanket. ~Stupid stupid stupid Kamui! I was just trying to be a good girlfriend.... Dammit where is this idiot, he left three hours ago. Did I make him that angry? More like did he threaten me?~ Emi sighs but stops midway, "There's no reason to be depressed! I was just being considerate!" She sits up now supremely angry, "What an idiot! That's the last time I'm ever going to be considerate towards him and his problems! I'll leave Earth by myself and I don't give a damn what he thinks." Emi stands up and starts packing her bags, "Let's see if I remember correctly there is a planet that is famous for its Hot Springs.. Yeah let's go there! The planet was called Souls Garden!" Emi picks up her phone and dials Hijikata's number, "Pick up... Pick up!" *click* "Where are you and where are you hurt?" "Home and I'm not hurt. Um I was wondering if it would be okay to leave for awhile?" "Where are you leaving too?" "To Souls Garden! I wanna spend some time at the Hot Springs!" She hears Hijikata sigh, "Fine but under on condition. If there's any trouble over there, come home immediately." "I promise, but nothing bad should happen. I mean the Amanto on that planet are pretty peaceful and kind." "When do you plan on leaving?" "Tonight!" "Wha! So suddenly!" "Yes! Now talk to you later!" "Stay safe then..." *click* Emi grabs a suitcase and starts packing clothes, "Let's see I'll stay there for three days and two nights. It's enough time to cool my head and relax a bit." She zips up her suitcase and then puts her boots on, she grabs a piece of paper and writes a note, "Dear Kamui, I'm going to be gone for three days and two nights. If you are hungry then eat all the food in the house except the green onions or go mooch food off someone else. Don't pass out from starvation and let someone else pick you up. Sincerely, Emiko. There that should be good." She places the note on the table and grabs her suitcase, "Goodbye Earth! See you soon!"

Emi intensely stares at the seat in front of her. ~Wow this ship is pretty empty... Probably like thirty people on board... Weird, maybe because it's late and no one wants to travel this late... Oh well I get this row of seats to myself!~ She closes her eyes, trying her hardest to fall asleep. When she finally does, she dreams up something weird.
