When Light Meets Wind

Hakuouki Fanfic - OC x Kazama.
----------------------
In the shadowed streets of Kyoto, blood has a way of finding the truth.

Hikari Yamamoto has spent her life being underestimated - a swordswoman too skilled, too composed, too eager to keep the darker parts of herself in check. The village that raised her called it discipline. She knows better than to ask what it really is. When a night of violence throws her into the path of the Shinsengumi, it isn't their blades that unsettle her. It's the pale, golden-eyed stranger who looks at her like he already knows the name she was never given - like he can see straight through the one she was told to wear instead.

Kazama Chikage doesn't chase what's ordinary. And Hikari is far from it. Beneath her borrowed name lies a bloodline erased from history, a power buried so deep even she can't feel it stir - until he starts asking the questions no one else dared to. As the line between hunter and hunted blurs, Hikari must decide how much of herself she's willing to remember, and what it will cost her to be found.

Some names are given. Others are waiting to be reclaimed.
