"What was that all about?" I heard Sanemi sprint towards me as I started walking inside the estate.

My heart was still beating quickly while I tried my best to stay calm.

I almost got wounded.

"Betsuni." I replied and automatically stopped in my tracks.

My eyes widened as I realized something. I lowkey sounded like the Water Head and that's not a nice thing!

My cheeks heated up as I pursed my mouth and start walking a little bit faster. I was secretly hoping that Sanemi wouldn't notice.

"I know you're short, but please don't make your replies short too!" He laughed which made me glare at him.

I was annoyed at him for calling me short, but I was also kinda glad that he didn't say anything else about my reply.

Well, I guess that should be fine.

I flashed him a smile before walking again.

"Seriously, what happened?" He followed me, "I never thought I'd see a one on one battle here in your estate."

"None of your business." I shot him a glance before completely sprinting away from him.

I don't want to answer any of his questions.

Everything keeps on repeating in my mind. The sound of blades, the irritation in his eyes, the way he dumped my haori on the mud.

Well, let's forget the last part. I don't want to remember that it was also my fault.

I still couldn't believe he threatened to decapitate me, but there's one thing that's still making everything confusing for me.

"You know I won't."

My heart started leaping again as my whole face started heating up. My face would probably look like a tomato now.

I couldn't stop thinking about the Water Pillar's last line. I wasn't stupid not to realize what those meant, but I also didn't want to assume things.

"What to do?" I told myself as I cover my face with my hands.

I was starting to get frustrated about my feelings. I don't know why I'm turning nuts. My heart was still beating fast and the only thing I could think about is him.

This is bad.

The last thing I want to happen in my life is to develop feelings for someone. I don't really think that having these feelings are necessary. The only thing I want to do now is to eliminate each demon lurking out there.

"Kocho-dono!" I flinched at the greeting. I was too absorbed in deep thoughts that I didn't notice Kyojuro infront of me.

I was too startled to utter a word. Instead, I just smiled at them. The Flame Pillar was with the Sound Pillar who kept his gaze on me.

"Is there a problem, Tengen?" I smiled at him.

"Nope." He still stared at me intently. "I was just looking for flamboyant wounds."

"Have some respect!" Kyojuro immediately nudged Tengen, "Don't mind him Kocho-dono."

I shook my head, "It's fine. Now, if you would excuse me."

"Wait!"

"Yes?" I asked as calm as possible.

"Oyakata-sama announced that the headquarters would be available already." Kyojuro maintained eye contact with me. "He also told us that we'll be allowed to go back there after the awaited event!"
