He left me.
Left me half-naked and tied to a bed with no means of defending myself.
Well, it's not like I could defend myself anyways.
Not in this condition.
But still...HE LEFT ME!
I have no clue where I am at or what time of day it is.
Not that it matters.
I can't say that I blame him for leaving me, not after I pulled that knife on him.
But I sort of wish he would come back and do whatever he did the last time to render me unconscious.
It hurts.
A lot.
I stare up at the ceiling, feeling extremely tired yet unable to sleep.
I wonder what happens if I need to use the bathroom?
I close my eyes once more.
((As you may already know, Shura is located here. Anyone can stumble upon her, using a little creativity of course.))

I shouldn't have had that last bottle of sake. The ninth, if the ink of my memory hasn't been smudged too illegibly. Or was it the twelfth...? Ugh. Whatever the statistics were, it's enough to make my head hurt so terribly now. Mou, what time is it?
One, two, three, four, five, eight, thirteen...What comes next after twenty? Whatever it is, that's the number of beams on the ceiling of my room. Ho-hum. Numbers, numbers, numbers. Not in the mood to count anymore.
Okita Souji. You consumate bedhead.
I roll over on my stomach and bury my face half in my own hair and half in what I'm guessing is the futon. With my head throbbing like this, I could care less to check so long as it's soft and smelling of Chiriko-chan's laundry soap. At least there's something on me that doesn't smell like sake.
I bet Aunt Aki will flaggelate me if she sees me like this: stuck in bed all morning with a hang over. I never really did take to sake all too well, and drowning myself in it so suddenly is a bit out of character, isn't it? Snicker. If not Aunt Aki, then Hiji---
Ow. My head.
And this is all Shinomori Aoshi's fault. Why did he have to...No, not again...
And just when I had almost convinced myself that I've forgotten. Perhaps there are just some wounds that are not meant to heal, ne? No matter how long one delusions himself that time will always be enough. I didn't want to admit it, but last night...I realized I had so many wounds. Those that I've desperately tried to stitch together for ten long years. Kami-sama, he still has so much power over me.
"Okita-san?"
It's such a task to even lift my head. "Ohayou, Chiriko."
"You look rested enough."
Ugh. "The lady laughs at my weakness."
( Morning Madness )
I can just feel her rolling her eyes. Maybe I know her -that- well already? "I'll never understand you, you know?"
I lay back and let her continue to untangle the matted mess that is my hair. "Of course."

Sit and look at the stars, or eat your dinner here if the dojo is crowded. Visit with old friends and make new ones. Laugh, talk, flirt, argue, and steal a kiss under the moon.

Taking the two boys with me shopping for presents should have been a relaxing repose. Now I'm beginning to regret my decision.
Souji, what the hell were you thinking?
An hour into it, and I feel like I've aged three-fold from running around trying to get them to stay in one place. First, leaving Chiriko-chan to clean the whirlwind they left with all the different paper flora and fauna strewn about, then the splashing mess they made during bathtime, and now I'm eating dust from their shuffling slippers. I was--I AM--the First Captain of the Shinsengumi, the best sons Japan has ever bred. I've hunted down the scum of the streets...and here I am at my prime unable to keep up with two children. Children.
...Where did they run off to this time?!
"Tsutomu! Tsuyoshi! Wait! Don't go in there!"

The Courtyard –
The Kamiya Dojo is a festival of lights tonight, with every lantern in the dojo lit to welcome guests to the celebration of the marriage of Kaoru and Kenshin.
The Front Gate is open, and Yahiko is stationed here as a position of honor to greet guests and keep their weapons for them while they are in attendance at the party. (The other gates are locked.)
Welcome to the Wedding Reception!

"Perhaps saying that you're troubled is an understatement, ne?"
I usher him inside the training hall where the gleaming morning sun washes through the smallest chinks in the wood. Today is a good day...for many things. I take my seat just outside the shoji, waiting for him to settle himself. Well, given the circumstances, he can walk up and down the length of the engawa for all I care... so long as he doesn't wear off the wood.

current mood: determined
After leaving the shack, Okita-sensei suggested that we return to his dojo to better attend to Shura's wounds and while that was quite a solid idea, there were other problems with following it through. Such as I too was being followed and neither even knew about it yet. So on top of Shura's problems, I was mixing mine own in here as well.
I gave Okita-sensei some quick response and through the doubtful look he agreed. I could tell that he knew there was another reason and had stored his questions for later use. So the question came up again as we traversed through the forest, where to take the injured woman? I thought of the answer immediately after the question… where better to hide from the criminals and ruffians, than in the place that breeds and gives life to them?
( Through the depths of darkness )
Through my steady work pace, I ask what I am sure was both on mine and Okita-sensei's mind, "Who is after you, Shura-san?"
