The Land of the Samurai ; 侍の国 (Gintama x Reader)

Don't Leave Evidence In A Crime Scene

Before heading home, you decided to make a stop by the snack shop to share a cake that one of your former patients had baked for you. With the Yorozuya around, it was quickly devoured in about a short five minutes. Otose then went into the back room and shouted out a name, "Catherine! Hurry up with the cleaning!"

"Shut up, Otose!" Catherine had come out from the back room with a mop and bucket in hand as well as a mean look on her face. "What do you want?"

Otose hit Catherine over the head, "Don't be so rude! [name]-san, meet our new employee, Catherine." And you looked up over at the girl; there behold the most hideous cat-girl you have ever seen. She wasn't cute, nor pretty; she was just... how do you say? Unsightly.

"Did she apply here recently?" you looked at Catherine and gave her a brittle smile. "Or did you find her somewhere?"

Otose clicked her tongue, "Long story short, I hired her, she stole some things, I fired her, and then I hired her again."

"Must've been quite a story," you chuckled, hopefully they would tell you the entire story when they had the time. "Anyways, it's a pleasure to meet you Catherine. I'm [last name] [name], but you can call me [name]."

"Same to you, [name]-san," she held her hand out and you took it in your own.

She may look weird for a cat-girl, but she seemed nice... right? Despite her curses at Otose. "Well, it's getting quite late. I'll leave you two to do your jobs. Goodnight." They waved you goodbye, along with the two kids behind you. Gintoki was already drunk off his head and puking in the corner. You closed the door behind you when you left. "Good luck taking care of Gintoki, Shinpachi."

"I'll need all the luck I can get!"

。。。

"She looks like a friend of Catherine's. This could be our chance, Kurikan*!"

*[refer to Episode 97.]

"Seems so... If we rob this girl, she'll go tell her friends at the Snack House. And then, we'll confront Catherine and have her join Cat's Punch again. It's the perfect plan. Hurry up you two! Let's follow her. Yoremon, get your lock pick ready just in case."

。。。

You had already finished up your nightly routine and was getting ready to go to bed. Your eyes became droopy by the minute. You dragged yourself into bed and snuggled into the blanket. The silence of your surroundings allured you to sleep. "Yoremon! Open the door!" Kurikan whisper-yelled out.

"I'm trying my best. This is Catherine's expertise," the cat-boy fiddled around with the lock, until it clicked. "I got it!" He slowly opened the door, being cautious so there wouldn't be any noise.

The three men tip-toed in with a large bag and started to scout your belongings. "Kashiwaya! Don't smoke in here, the smell is going to wake her up."

"Sorry," the man dropped the cigarette and stepped on it.

"Kurikan, look at this sword. It looks expensive, we could sell this for a fortune."

"Take it. And take anything valuable that you can find," the cat-boy stepped backwards trying to move the coffee table out of the way, but that caused a small pot plant to fall down resulting in a loud crash.

You were startled awake-your heart racing as if you woke up from a falling dream. You could hear your heart rapidly beating in your ears. There seemed to be nothing out of the ordinary in your room, but you still continued to wonder where the loud noise came from. You quietly tip-toed towards your bedroom door and slid it open. There were three people scrambling with things in their hands and were bumping into everything, making a large mess in the room. "Hey, hey! Stop right there!" you yelled out.
