Kenshirou x Kid: PUPPY!

"Yuzu." A small girl, of six, with blonde hair that was tied back, looked up at Hajime. Her bright red eyes had moved up from her toys to her big brother. "Come on." Yuzu stood up and walked toward Hajime. He reaches down waiting for her hand. Yuzu reached up and grabbed his hand and with a powerful tug, she was hoisted onto his back. She wrapped her arms around her neck while her legs clung to his waist.

"Where are we going ni-san?" She rubbed a finger over the soft fur of her favorite toy. A cute dog plush that had white fur and pink tips with large pink eyes.

"The warden's office." Yuzu's face lit up suddenly. Her arms tightened around her brother's neck causing him to cough and choke and sputter. He tapped her arms to make her release her death grip.

"Really?! I've never been there. Is the warden nice? I've heard she's pretty. Why am I going?" Hajime sighs and shrugs his shoulders after rubbing his neck and scowling.

"Seitarou and Yamato are both busy. And I don't trust you with either of them." Yuzu nodded and nuzzled into Hajime's back.

"I'm glad I get to spend the day with you." Hajime smiled lovingly at his sister's words before scoffing.

"You may think that now but it takes a long time to get there." Yuzu placed her chin on Hajime's shoulder and she looked at him with wide eyes full of excitement.

"I'll be fine. You know I don't bore easily." Hajime shook his head. She was right. Despite being young and wild. She was patient and when she set her mind to something she followed through. The older man knew from many personal experiences.

**Time Skip**

After many train rides and movement between trains later they finally arrived at the Warden's main building. Yuzu was off of her brother's back now and she stared in awe up at the large building.

"Aw. Wow. It's so high." She whispered in pure excitement. Hajime ushered her into the building where they went through many security checks and detectors. Hajime went through one and forgot to take off his watch. Yuzu watched silently and waited for her turn. When she went through the nice man running the checkpoint allowed her to keep her dog plush. She thanked him profusely.

After that, they entered an elevator. Then they walked down a long hallway and into another elevator. The whole set up confused Yuzu but when she asked why her brother only replied with 'extra security precautions.' She didn't say anything after that. Once they were in the second elevator Hajime was asked a series of questions. And I mean a lot of questions. By the time they were done Yuzu had become nervous.

But the second the door opened her nervousness skyrocketed. In the waiting room outside the Warden's office, there were many men. Most likely all head supervisors like her big brother. At the sight of them, she hid behind his legs. They all gave off intimidating auras and this made Hajime irk. He growled at them before crouching down to her level.

"Ni-san they're scary." She looked at the men, her eyes going from one to the next. "They're..."

"I know. But they won't...."

"PUPPY!" Hajime quickly grabbed her collar on her shirt before she completely trampled the dog supervisor, Kenshirou Yozakura. He sighed in annoyance. Yuzu had a bright grin on her face as she reached for the guard. She tried, but not very hard, to pull herself from her brother's grasp with no avail.

"Yuzu. Stop it. That's enough." The girl tried running for the man once more but her brother grabbed her and placed her down on a nearby sofa. He held her there making sure she looked at him and didn't move. "You will cause no one any trouble." She pouted. "Got it? No trouble." Yuzu nodded and Hajime let her go.
