It is the year 1580, the eighth year of the Tenshou period in summer. I was walking to one of my servants, when I had gotten hit by my father. I threw a rabbit’s foot to the servant and she smiled. I entered his office and sat in front of him. “Listen Mitsuki, we have been living the way of the bushi for quite some time and it is rare to see a female as a samurai ever in the scrolls,” I sat quietly waiting for his command, “but, what you do not understand is that the role of a female is to tend to the homes and have children.”
“What? You let me train for nineteen years and now you want me to stop!” I stood up with Ruka next to me, if I can’t be a samurai then why am I the oldest child? “You made the law yourself, the firstborn shall be sent to the mountains with their father to train as a samurai. Why am I the only girl that is the oldest in the whole village?”
“I do not know, but before your mother left she told me to train you. If you were never trained as a samurai then she would come and kill me.” What is he talking about? “I never told you what happened have I?” Ruka and I shook our heads. “After Ruka was two your mother had left us, she wasn’t a slave as I told you but she was a ninja of the Sage village our enemy.” He stayed still for a moment. “…I am so sorry but I must send you to the mountains once more Mitsuki for your life is in grave danger; the ninja have found out about you and they are coming from every village to have your head. Please take what you can and leave at once!”
“But…”
“It is your duty as the priestess. Do you want to die? Go now!”
I ran into my room and packed a few weapons; finally I grabbed a horse and left my home. I was riding for hours until I reached the mountain; I let the horse go and went up to the huts in the high parts of the mountain. I heard talking and I quietly hid behind a boulder three times my size. “I’m telling you she is coming here!”
“We won’t know until we find out, all we know is her name and it’s Mitsuki.” They know my name! I felt hands on my body and saw one of them. “Hey Takuto we got her!” The leader came out; he had short black hair, red eyes, a black mask over his mouth, toned skin, a perfect body, and a blue katana. I was forced to the ground with a kunai against my throat. My black hair made my rare blue eyes hide from his face. He pulled my chin up and kissed me!
He let go quickly and told the man that held me to free my body. Once I was free I knocked the man down and jumped to the highest part of the mountain where no ninja is able to find. I ran past trees and boulders as I made it to a bear’s cave. The bear had been an ally to my village for years and lets us go here without a problem, I passed it giving it some fish and ran out of a small hole for us to crawl in and finally made it to the valley at the top of the mountain.
The wind blew against my black hair and my eyes shimmered in the sun light. I wanted to sleep but I couldn’t, I sat on a nearby boulder and began to meditate.
My five senses began to be at full power as I thought of all of the pain I had when I was younger. “Mitsuki!!” I looked and was tackled by none other than the man I was supposed to marry Goemon. “I was looking for you, why are you up here?” I pushed him off and tackled him covering his mouth.
“There is a ninja here, and he wants my head.” He was shocked and stayed quiet as heard footsteps coming toward us.
A shiruken was thrown and I was pulled into someone’s arms knocking me out in the process. “Mitsuki!” I last heard my ex fiancée.
I heard nothing and saw nothing but black. Soon I felt the strange feeling of fire against my skin. “Oh, you’re awake.” I jumped up and took my sword out. He raised his hands in defeat as soon as I unsheathed my blade. “I won’t do anything, as long as you don’t try to escape.” I put my sword away and sat down. “Good.”
I watched him fall asleep; then I made a run for it. I was fast and I ran up to a tree. “Father, why did you warn me today? If I knew before I wouldn’t be in this situation.” I heard a rustle and threw a dagger at it.
“Don’t do that to me!” I saw a boy with brown hair; I jumped down and hugged him. “I missed you so much Mitsuki.” Ruka cried in my shoulder and I jumped back on the tree and let him sleep in my lap.
I heard another rustle and saw the same ninja from before; I climbed higher with Ruka hiding in my jacket. My long black hair hid me as my blue eyes looked at the ninja’s movements.
“You can’t escape me, don’t you get it?” I turned quickly and saw him. He grabbed me and put me over his shoulder.
Ruka woke up as he felt me being lifted up. “Mitsuki what’s happening?”
“What was that?”
“’That’ is me!” he went out of my jacket and in the ninja’s face. “If you hurt her I will kill you.” Ruka took his bow and arrow out to show that he wasn’t kidding. The ninja pushed him away and continued to walk away. “Mitsuki…don’t leave me mom!” the ninja stopped in his tracks.
“Mother, you’re a mother?” I didn’t look at him until he dropped and kissed me again. I pushed him off and he tackled me. “What did I say about trying to escape?”
“I never listen to ninjas, especially you!” he took his mask off showing his mouth; he leaned in and kissed me then he pulled me close to him. I couldn’t resist; I just couldn’t I wrapped my arms around his neck as his went around my back. He let go, and picked up Ruka.
“Both of you will go to my village, just put this on and they will never know who you are.” I went behind a rock and quickly changed; once I got back Ruka was sleeping. We walked for some quiet time. “Are you really his mom?”
“No, he is my younger brother, our mother left us when he was two so he doesn’t know about her.”
“When was that?”
“Six years ago. I was still training when she left.”
“I have a plan your name now is Mitsuki Watanabi, instead of Sora OK?”
“Got it, they don’t know about Ruka so we’re fine.” We walked in more silence until gates to a village stood open. I stayed quiet as two men came up to us.
“You’re back early Takuto, who’s the girl and the brat?”
“I found them wandering around and decided to take them to shelter before the greedy shogun comes back.” Was he really speaking badly of my father? I stayed quiet and emotionless as he continued.
“Alright, so how was the quest you got?”
“Easier than ABC.” We walked through the village; heading to the hall where the leader of the village was. We entered the hall and I saw no women and many men. So no kunoichi here, great more time for me to be hit on. I thought as I bowed to the leader. “Lord Night claw I found these two in the forest hiding from the samurai, so I saved them and took them here. The young one will be under my wing when he awakes tomorrow.”
“And the girl?”
“Is she allowed to speak?”
“Yes she is, tell me your name girl.”
I was quiet for a while until I was able to speak, “My name is Mitsuki Watanabi, the boy is my little brother, Ruka we have been running from the samurai for days, and we need shelter before…”
“Yes?”
“Before they kill me for killing a samurai.”
“So, that is how you attained the katana?”
“Yes it is; I killed the samurai just to protect my brother.”
“Interesting…you will be living with Takuto until the samurai have given up on you, until then you will be a normal girl that does not wish to be a shinobi.”
“Thank you Lord.” I bowed once more and we left.
“That was good.”
“I think he was hitting on me.”
“Of course he was, but until you decide to say your real name you’ll be with me in my bed, don’t worry I won’t do anything to you.” We walked to his apartment; it was small but good enough. It was a two bedroom one bath; the kitchen was nice and clean so was everything else.
“I’ll put Ruka in the other room; you can get dressed and sleep.” I nodded and began to undress in his room; the walls were painted black, the bed sheets were white, and everything else looked like a training hall. I pulled over the sheets and began to sleep until I heard footsteps.
“Don’t worry it’s me,” I relaxed a little, but I never had my guard up with him why?
TAKUTO POV:
I walked into my room, “Don’t worry it’s me,” I took my shirt off, revealing the muscles I worked on for many years, the medium dark skin that I descended from my mother, the dragon tattoo on my right shoulder that leads to my forearm, and the scars I received from battle that are on my chest. I lied in my bed with the sheets over me and Mitsuki. Something is bound to happen while she isn’t in her home.
IN IGA….
GOEMON POV:
“WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT SHE WAS TAKEN?” Lord Sora said.
“A ninja took her away and by now she is probably dead.” I said with worry.
“Do you see the seal anywhere on the shinobi?”
“Yes, it was the seal of Night claw of the Sage village.”
“We wait a year; if she is dead by then, there will be another war.”

I woke up with the sun in my eyes; I remembered that I was living with the strongest Jounin in the village. I quietly got up and showered then went to wake up Ruka. He was small and so weak, he is supposed to be training right now but he followed me instead. I stepped out to the balcony and inhaled some air; the village wasn’t small or what I had imagined. What my father had told me I thought it would look as if it was in control of pirates, but no it was led by a wise man.
I took a deep breath and began to sing:

“Nice song, did you make it yourself?” I turned and saw Takuto there leaning on the wall.
“No, I learned it when I was younger.”
“Oh, well breakfast is on the table.” I went inside to see the table had French toast, pancakes with syrup and butter, and rice balls neatly on the table with Ruka waiting for us. We ate in silence and listened to what the others were saying as they passed by, nothing important though just normal gossip.
“Sister, were you singing again?”
“Yes Ruka I was.”
“Why didn’t you wake me up?”
“You need rest, you know how uncle would be like if you never got any sleep.”
“That’s true, but he lets you stay up whenever!”
“My training of one is complete, now I’m training to be the priestess, remember when I become one, we can’t talk anymore.” He began to cry but I wiped the tear away and made him smile. “But soon you will be a priest so don’t worry.”
“I never worry!” he stood up; he was a small reflection of my father, while I looked nothing like him or my mother. He says that I resemble my grandmother when she was my age three years after she gave birth to uncle.
We finished eating when there was a knock on the door. Takuto went to open it; it was quiet until there was a scream, “TAKUTO!!!” I held Ruka behind me as he came back with a girl with blonde hair squeezing him in her flat chest; she had red eyes, and was wearing a kunoichi’s uniform. She looked at me and sent a glare that was weak; I sent a stronger one that made a chill go up and down her spine.
“Misaki I have guests here so now isn’t the right time,”
“Why is she alone?”
“She isn’t alone I’m here!” Ruka came out behind me and pointed to himself.
“What is that?”
“That is my little brother; and it would be wise if never touch him or go near me while I am here.” I stood up and threatened her, I thought she was a kunoichi but she is just a wimp. “Who are you?”
“I’m Misaki, the first kunoichi ever! And Takuto’s fiancée,”
“The first kunoichi went into the Jade village nineteen years ago and fell in love with a samurai then had children twenty- six years ago,” I looked at Takuto and he looked mad for some reason. “If you excuse me I have to go and teach my brother medical issues.” I took Ruka outside, but I heard in a distant Takuto calling me.
“Are we training sister?”
“No, I just wanted to be away from the love birds.” I sat in front of a rock and put my head on my knees.
“What’s wrong sister?”
“Nothing,”
“It looks like…”
“I don’t like him; I will never like him for taking me away from home! I just miss home that’s all.”
“Sure you don’t, while we’re here what do we do?”
“I don’t know; but we have to find a way out of this village.”
“We can’t…”
Suddenly two men that are obviously drunk came up to us. “Hey cutie do you want to spend the night with a real man?”
“No, I’m fine; you should be leaving before I get a Jounin on your asses.”
“A Jounin well we’re the highest rank Genins! A Jounin is the weakest in the class.”
“If I was the lowest rank, I would still be in the academy now you two get out of my sight!” I looked up and saw Takuto without Misaki. “You Ok.”
“I was,”
“Right, now tell me why you left.”
“You and your fiancée needed time to be alone didn’t you?” he sat next to me looking up at the cloud covered sky.
“We’re not engaged.”
“You’re not?”
“No, she is just a candidate but I don’t want to marry a kunoichi that never mastered genjutsu or ninjutsu.”
“She never mastered ninjutsu or genjutsu?” Ruka could but I’m training him to be a priest and a samurai.
“Pathetic.”
“I know; she wasn’t born with chakra that’s why.” I stayed silent as we watched the clouds turn dark as it began to rain. Ruka already was at home by now sleeping or reading one of his scrolls; Takuto stood up and took his hand out to me. “Come on you’re going to get sick.” I took his hand and we walked back to the apartment.
Once we reached the apartment the rain had stopped and Ruka was waiting for us. I went into Takuto’s room and changed out of my wet clothes and into a casual kimono my father gave me last year. After I changed I went into the living room; out of nowhere I was pinned to the wall with someone’s lips on mine.
“What the hell Takuto!” I pushed him off.
“What are you talking about Mitsuki I was in the kitchen the whole time… Mitsukuni.”
“Little brother long time no see.”
“Takuto what is he talking about?”
“This is Mitsukuni my older twin…” I looked at both of them and they were exactly alike!

I sat in front of the twins as Ruka was playing a game of solitaire. Mitsukuni had the same facial features as Takuto; each time I look at Takuto and back to Mitsukuni a cold chill goes down my spine, Mitsukuni had Takuto’s eyes, but he had pitch black hair going down to the end of his shoulder blades and he was stricter than Takuto. “So you’re telling me you have a girl with her little brother living with you…”
He nodded in response; Ruka made a castle of his cards and they fell, I helped pick them up but Mitsukuni took my wrist and pulled me close to him. For some reason he thought I would blush; he was mistaken, I gave him a glare as he tried to swoon at me.
“This one is odd,”
He let go of me; I went to pick up the cards and shuffle them once more made a castle that stood for an hour. Once I took the one in the middle out all the cards fall into one pile. Ruka went to put them away while he was gone there was an argument on how I will be taken care of. I hate it when I’m fought over!
I walked into the kitchen and saw that Takuto made a mess; I got the broom and began to clean. Once I finished I heard a crash in the living room and I saw them grabbing each other by the collar. “Would you two stop? Do you two really hate each other?”
“HE STOLE MY GIRLFRIEND!!” they looked at each other and gave each other glares.
“You two are twins. Sit down both of you before you break anything else besides your bodies.” They sat down but Mitsukuni kept watch at me. I’m thinking he’s a major pervert. Ruka came in tired as ever, man he’s only seven years old and he is this tired. I went up to take him so he could rest but Mitsukuni grabbed a hold of my wrist.
“Don’t leave.” I glared at him and shoved him away. I picked up Ruka and took him to Takuto’s room.
“I need a nap sister,”
“I know, now be quiet.” I took a deep breath and began to sing:
“My boy, my boy

My boy, my boy, my boy, boy, boy, my boy” He quickly feel asleep after a couple of yawns, I kissed his forehead and walked out to see them fighting again. “ES NORAIDU!” I shouted as wind came from my fingers creating string of my life force that is impenetrable from anything even the wrath of Kami couldn’t harm it. I tied the two together creating them as puppets and setting them on the floor across the room from each other. “Now why did your girlfriend leave you? And tell me one at a time or the string won’t just be on your limbs!” I threatened, man I love being a priestess you get good powers.
Takuto went first since I have known him longer than his brother, “He was flirting with her when I was ten and he took her!”
“WHAT? You’re fighting over a girl that happened over seven years ago!” I fell to the ground laughing; why would they fight over a girl? I heard a distant whine and saw Ruka coming out of the room with little tears in his eyes, “Ruka did you have a nightmare again?” He nodded; I went over and picked him up. I sat on the floor with him between my legs smiling as I warmed him with my embrace.
“Isn’t that nice? This is what a wife would do with their children and my wife will do that!” Mitsukuni took my hand and held it with a gentle feeling. “So tell me girl, do you want to be the wife of Mitsukuni Kodachi?”
“No; not in a million years. I already have a fiancée at my home village.” Takuto’s face dropped instantly as I said that.
“And where is that?”
“Iga or the Jade village.” Mitsukuni’s face hardened and pinned me to the wall once more but with a kunai against my neck.
“You failed your mission; I might as well kill her any ways since she is a bore to me. Goodbye princess.” I snapped as he called me princess; no one calls me that unless I allow them to. I pushed him off making the kunai skim my arm. I landed on the floor and kicked him off his balance making him fall face first on the floor. I picked Ruka up and sat next to Takuto who looked impressed. “YOU BITCH!”
“Watch your language with Ruka here!” I said as I covered Ruka’s ears. He picked himself up and glared at me then to Takuto.
“I’ll be back; if I find those two still here I’ll kill her when she’d asleep.”
“No can do brother; she’s sleeping with me and Ruka is as well.”
“What?”
“You heard me right; these two are sleeping in my room that you’re not allowed into remember.” Takuto took hold of my waist and held it tight in his arms. “If you ever try to hurt her, I will kill you and your descendents.” Mitsukuni froze and stayed quiet as he sat back down.
“Fine I won’t kill them but you know the rules when I’m living here for a short time.”
I looked at Takuto who wouldn’t let go of me. “The room that Ruka was in last night was and is Mitsukuni’s; he’ll be with us tonight until my brother leaves for the next mission he gets.”
“When is that?”
“Usually a week or so, but I’m not on the list for upcoming missions like I always am. There is only one rule for you two; if you ever go in my room anymore you’re dead.”
Damn I have to live with him now this day just got even better!

GOEMON POV:
It’s been a week and she hasn’t returned. Maybe, no it can’t be I can’t be falling for her again. Am I? I walked around the village when I reached the tree the both of us always went to. I remember it perfectly.
~flash back~
It was last year around the winter her father had said we would be engaged but I turned her down, she ran away without tears in her eyes. I looked for her so many days until I reached here. I climbed up to the top and saw her. She was crying; I took hold of her once I did I held her in my arms, I can’t marry you because you are too good for me, you are too great for a samurai Mitsuki.
~flash back end~
I shouldn’t have said that because now I regret it.
MITSUKI POV:
We were walking into the hall where the perverted Night claw was. We bowed and stood before him. “The samurai have left; you may leave to your village and rest. You have no worry. Takuto you may escort her to the mountains once there you have to turn back do you understand me?”
“Yes sir,”
“Good,” we left the village and walked until I reached the mountains.
“This is good bye huh, well then I’ll see you when I can.”
“You as well,” I climbed the mountains until I made it to the top and saw the rock where I was taken. I won’t see him again, well that sucks. I sat on the rock trying to clear my mind but all I could think of was him. I stopped and began to cry.
“Sister what wrong?”
“Nothing Ruka,”
“It is something you fell for him.” He was right, I was comfortable with him alone…I am in love with a ninja.
TAKUTO POV:
As I watched her leave my heart sank. No get a grip on yourself Takuto; she’s a priestess and samurai priestess to be in fact, you are stronger than this. But she is beautiful. I walked away with my heart sinking deeper and a void appearing in it once more. Ever since my mother died I have had a hole in my in my soul; now that she came in it was filled but after I saw her leave I drained empty once more.
MITSUKI POV:
I cried some more with Ruka comforting me. I finished crying and began to go back through the cave. Ruka came behind me happy as ever but sad as well I held my face like he did and entered the village with my priestess uniform on. The villagers saw me and bowed as they saw me. I bowed back and I saw my father on his horse and in armor. “What is the meaning of this Lord Sora?”
“Who are you girl and why is my son with you, unless…” he got off of his horse and looked closer to me, “You are alive! Prepare a celebration my daughter is back with us as priestess! Thank Kami for this great news!”
People celebrated as I sat behind my father with Ruka on my lap, I saw someone suspicious and kept my eyes on him until I was in the gates of the estate. I was taken to my room that was same, as with Ruka’s. I changed into my kimono I used for occasions like this and waited for the servants to prepare everything else. I heard the door open and I saw Goemon with one of my father’s servants. “Lady Mitsuki!” she said, she smiled and hugged me with the rabbits foot around her neck. She pushed Goemon out and prepared my hair. She brushed it and put it in the best way it could be, it was down with a pin in it. I walked out hearing the music and I saw my father with Lord Night claw. No if he sees Ruka I am done for! I whispered to my father if I could go speak with Ruka and he approved.
I rushed to Ruka’s room and opened it seeing him with his servant. I told the servant to leave quickly and closed the door. “He’s here.”
“Who is?”
“Night claw, he saw me already, if he sees you we’re done for!” he turned pale and let me undo the hair that the servant did. I began to braid it; once I was done he smiled. “This is going to work,” we walked out to the hall once more and saw the rest enjoying themselves; including Goemon.
“Are you OK sister?” Ruka whispered as I stared at Goemon and the others flirting with him.
“I’m going to get some air come with me if you want.” We disappeared as no one saw us come in and changed into normal civilian clothing. We walked until we reached the center of the village where the tree was. “Want to race to see who can get to the second branch?”
“Yeah, go!” We climbed until we reached the branch. Ruka rested for a while but I never did. I was already at the top when I saw him climb up. “What’s wrong with you? Don’t tell me you’re not over Goemon?”
“I am; it’s just…”
“It’s just that he reminds you of Takuto, doesn’t he?”
“Yeah he does,”
“How about we go the Sage village and see him.”
“We can’t if we do, my head will leave my body and so will yours they saw me once if they see me again I’m dead.”
I stood up and began to sing:
“Fukai, fukai mori no oku ni ima mo kitto
Okizari ni shita kokoro kakushiteru yo

Sagasu hodo no chikara mo
Naku tsukarehateta
Hitobito wa eien no yami ni kieru

“Oh, in that case I can’t take you back,” I turned around and was pinned to the tree trunk with lips on mine. I wrapped my hands around him, after I let go I smiled. He came to look for me. He smiled as he looked at me.
I looked at Takuto; the only that had changed on him was that his mask went over his left eye. “What happened to you?”
“What happened to me? I came here to see you and I saw you with some other guy! How could I not be mad at that?” He saw me with Goemon?
~flashback~
I was walking around the market with Goemon. He was making jokes and I laughed at some of them. I bumped into someone looking into their eyes, those familiar eyes. He smiled and took the apple that was in my hand and left a flower. Once he saw Goemon his smile became a glare. He disappeared out of nowhere and it was the second time I saw him. The first time I saw him was when I was on my father’s horse looking up at me.
~flashback end~
I sighed and sat down looking into the night sky that covered my home. Ruka went down to go back and sleep. Takuto sat next to me allowing me to put my head on his shoulder. He pulled my chin up to look at him; he was mad but also relieved to see me. “Mitsuki, tell me who that guy was.”
“He was the same guy you saw with me when you took me. His name is Goemon Sarutobi; he’s my ex-fiancee, I left him because he was weak at the time, and my father did a second one but he turned it down because I was useless,”
“When was that?”
“Last year.” He wrapped his arms around me to protect me.
“Mitsukuni got pissed off,”
“What?”
“You heard me he got pissed off that you left and attacked me leaving my left eye blind.”
“Oh my, but you still have your right which is good,”
He looked at me with his right eye, and smiled. “What’s good is that I have you with me now.”
TAKUTO POV:
Finally once I grabbed hold of her my void was filled once more. I am enjoyng her more and more so much that…I love her. I took my mask off and kissed like no one else could do with her. She wrapped her small body around mine and we were like this against the tree trunk. Like her I felt a deep pasion and sparks every time I was near her; but now I feel as if it is what I desire, I am complete with her now.
