The crowd was silent as the curtain revealed the stage. The lights shined a bright contrast of blue and white, the props mocking the scenery of the outdoors. They also played soft wind and a summers hearing, an orchestra playing a song of gratitude that reminded one of spring.

The narrator spoke, "A long time ago, in a palace home to the rich Shimada clan, the young hires were looking for more servants to help out around the castle." Genji and Hanzo came out from the left corner, dressed in their traditional royal clothing. (Young Genji and orange Hanzo skin) A few Genji fans cheered out and called his and Hanzo's name loudly. They were warned by staff to keep it down or they would be kicked out, so they did.

"Brother, I do not think it is necessary to have servants. Most of them will probably do a half assed job anyways." Genji spoke loudly, looking at Hanzo with annoyance. Although his brother smiled and said,"Genji, we need more help around here, father 'fired' a grip load of people because they were stealing from us. You know how that went."

Genji sighed. He nodded his head and walked around the stage, continuously sighing. Genji's father came from the corner and sat next to his son, a hand resting on his shoulder.

"You know, I've met a really nice young woman, I believe she will be a perfect for you Genji." Genji's father had been trying to get his son married for a few months, but his efforts went in vain due to Genji's stubbornness and playboy self.

"Sure, thank you for trying father but I really don't want to marry right now! I'm still so young!" His father facial expression changed a bit. They were more light and he thought for a moment before speaking,"Alright, I'll make you a deal. Go on a few dates with this girl and if you still don't like her, I'll stop trying to wed you for now." Genji stood and bowed and looked his father in the eye.

"Thank you Father."

The props team moved the stage around so that it was more of a town. They adjusted the lighting to a dark grey and brought in a smoke maker, along with a realistic rain effect, only improving the sorrowful atmosphere. The orchestra played a more calming tune with its soloist being a cello.

Genji walked through town with his umbrella, sightseeing things inside the glass windows. Everyone he passed, they would bow in respect of being in such a presence and greatly said their greetings. The sun began to peak from the clouds and it was then you walked out onto the stage, a short white dress with matching heels Your (H/c) hair dancing with the wind along with your dress. The spotlight had been directed at you, the fog and rain revealing you to the audience. You faced a window, looking at the dresses on the other side of the glass. Genji looked in your direction, taking in your stunning appearance from behind. As he made his way over to you, It was then you turned and faced him, a smile plastered on your face. A sudden thump was heard in your ears as you bowed before him. You face began to heat and turned brighter than a tomato at its perfected ripeness.

"Greeting young Shimada. A wonderful surprise to see you here." You greeted.

"Goodmorning miss. Say, you're very beautiful. What's your name?" Genji smiled. His lips curved a bit, it was evident that he wanted to laugh at the formalities. You giggled and responded with "Y/n L/n. Thank you very much sir, your handsome yourself." You wanted to die. The laughter that was being held in your stomach made you want to roll on the floor and just crack up to no mans end. Genji could say the same but the two of you kept your composure.

"Genji? Brother, it's time to go." Hanzo called out. He gestured to the hill that lead to the temple, a bit far up the mountain. Genji nodded and turned his attention back to you. "Excuse me for having to leave so early Y/n, Seeya later my sweet!" He called. You waved at him and Hanzo as you walked off the stage.
