Asai Rin, a seemingly normal girl, finds herself thrown into an abyss of events and a war between humans and demons. The last thing she wants is to get involved, but one fateful night, everything changes when she's wrongly accused of a crime she hadn't committed. The next thing she knows, she's neck deep in chaos. Rin's sole purpose is to try and protect the people she loves, but will she be able to when a figure from her past is hell bent on tearing apart everything she would ever live for? What will happen when she confronts dark secrets from the past? And what will happen when she starts to discover who, or rather, what she really is? Okita Souji x OC This is my first fanfic. If you have read anything similar, it is purely coincidental. All characters made up by me belong to me. Any scenes from the anime do not belong to me, neither do any of the music or art work I might put in here and there. Rest of it, all. belongs. to. me. If anyone tries to use my plot or ideas without my permission, I will cut them :) I hope we're clear on the message there. Have fun reading~

This story is flagged as mature. (OwO;) Megumi Kurosawa has lost her father for some years now and has wondered the lands from Edo to Kyoto ever since without knowing what are her goals in life. Survival had been her only choice and thus she lives dressed as a boy, carrying two swords and a bit of cash. Upon setting foot in Mibu though, she encounters Souji Okita, a member of the Shinsengumi, and starts admiring this swordsman, even taking him as a model of some sort. Then, one night she saves a woman from two rogue samurais and gets taken to the Shinsengumi headquarters where she learns that she has Oni blood. As she becomes the faithful servant of Isami Kondou and starts living with the Wolves of Mibu, her feelings for Okita start to change. Just when she thought that she could not be any happier by the sides of her now most treasured ones, she is reminded that she is an Oni. Following to events concerning her Oni blood, she is compelled to leave, unsure of ever seeing the people of the Shinsengumi that she came to love as her family. A/N: I re-arranged the story quite a bit and somehow inserted a year between the events of Reimeiroku and Sakkuroku There are several Toki no Kizuna references in the story. Toki no Kizuna is a game released by Otomate, like Hakuouki. Although not directly, it may serve as a prequel to Hakuouki as it contains exposition about the Oni race from Hakuouki. Hakuouki does not belong to me nor does Toki no Kizuna. Only characters exclusive to this fanfiction and story does. All rights reserved. P.S. This is my first fanfiction thus I might have many details wrong since I only played the Demon of the Fleeting Blossom game in the entire series. I have watched just a few episodes of the anime too... I apologise for any incoherences and mistakes of any kind. Also, Hakuouki Shinkai is naught. #6 in ECCHI AHAHA WHAT omg

[Okita Souji x Reader] Living in Kyoto these times got really interesting, right? Even for you, bakery shop owner. It's not like you could ever be bored having the Shinsengumi Captain around.
