know, our samurai are already ..."
"Sen!", Shizun simply burst into Kyoko's room and ignored her: "How far are you?"
"Far. We're just waiting for him to make a mistake. As long as he stays safe, we can scout him out. I don't think he noticed me and Sasuke. But he avoids the samurai troops," replied Sen reported and then looked at Kyoko: "He must have noticed Akira.The little one is not suitable for gathering information. "
"Fine, let me know when he takes action," Shizun nodded.
"What?", Kyoko stared after Sen, but the door was already closed.
"I thought they both only train ...", Kagome remembered: "And they are both injured!"
"I know, but that is the art of the Shinobi. They are only observing, because they are wounded at the moment and he is not doing anything, they can still hold back. That gives your samurai an unexpected chance. How far are they Shizun wanted to know, arrogantly.
"They'll have it faster than your two! I bet it was just a bluff so that my people would make mistakes and play yours into their hands! Forget it! I won't let myself be provoked!", Kyoko excited. She just couldn't believe that Sen and Sasuke should be that far. She knew that Shinji and Akira had been given extra leave, but didn't even really know what this Homaru should look like, except for what Heiji had told them.They only had a few suspects.
"If you think I need that, then I feel very sorry for you, Kyoko-chan", Shizun sat down on a pillow: "Kagome, please go."
"Ah…"
"No! You stay here!", Kyoko ordered and snorted in Shizun's direction: "What are you thinking about, you Pasha !?"
"Take it easy, otherwise I'll attack you, little princess. You're funny, damn cute, when you get so excited and almost hysterical," smiled Shizun: "Kagome, please, you don't really want to do that to yourself "Your mistress is going to have a tantrum and then fall for me."
"Kyoko-sama ...", Kagome took a step back, then she fled: "Sorry!"
Kyoko was reddened and seemed to explode. At the last moment Kagome closed the door behind him and then Kyoko's angry cry shook the whole residence: "I'm sorry, mistress ..."

"How should you work with the noise?" Snorted Sasuke, who was sitting in a vaulted ceiling and watching the samurai training.Because of Kyoko he almost lost his balance, he wasn't used to a marrow-piercing scream like that of a princess.
Even the samurai below him gave up the training in shock.
"Kyoko-sama ...?" One of the samurai wondered.
"You there! Go take a look!", The trainer ordered and the four samurai followed suit.
"Like the most loyal dogs ...", Sen said slightly disparagingly when she got back to Sasuke, she knelt in front of him in the framework and held on to one of the beams.
"Did you expect something different? What was going on?" He wanted to know.
"Shizun ... he must have annoyed her again. And here?"
"Nothing ... all quiet, he doesn't show any nakedness. We still have to wait to see what it looks like, or set a trap for him," Sasuke sighed.
"An idea?" Asked Sen.
"Theoretically, but practically we will need these two Samus ... I don't feel like playing into their hands ... or helping them," Sasuke waved off."Then we wait and watch Plogo until he thinks he can strike ... At night should be enough, I don't think that he can break free during the day to pull off the murder. There are too many samurai around and who always wants something from him ... ", Sen thought and frowned:" Doesn't he have a day off at some point? "
"Definitely ... The rosters are down there ...", Sasuke pointed to a stack of scrolls and a board behind it: "And there it is ..."
"Sensei Honè!", Akira entered the dojo and bowed to her trainer: "I should speak to you briefly ..."
"What is the brat up to?", Sasuke wondered.
Sen punched him lightly in the ribs and gestured for him to be quiet and continued to watch.
"What can I do for you, Akira?" Asked Hone. He was the first samurai trainer in this province for around 35 years. He had been employed here for a year now, he worked a lot of overtime, which he always celebrated.
"I need to talk to you.It's about this ninja that Shizun-sama brought with him, "began Akira:" But in private. "
"Of course, Akira. Let's go out," suggested Hone.
Aki nodded and followed him.
Sen and Sasuke looked at each other, then they disappear.
+ ~ * ~ +
"I see ... This Heiji makes fun of our values ​​and you run out of arguments ...", Honè repeated and looked at Akira: "Well you have to understand that not everyone is like us. You know the words honor and fairness not and if he is like that to you then I think that he just wants to bring you because you are so talented. You are still a beginner and it would be easy for you to switch. "
"But I am a SAMURAI with heart and soul. Tell me what I can do to make it clear to this ninja that he ..."
"That me what?", Heiji interrupted, who hadn't let Akira out of his sight.
"Is that him?" Asked Hone.
"YES .. This is this complete idiot!" Akira agreed grumpily.
"So you have time to talk here?Shinji is looking for you and to be honest, ever since you are behind ", Heiji stretched:" Even a girl in love and an arrogant guy could hang out on you at the moment ... "
Does he mean us? , Sasuke and Sen thought, they had followed Akira and Hone and were hiding between the leaves to listen.
"Ouch ...", Heiji touched the back of his head, he actually got two hazelnuts on the back of his head and that with such force that he almost started bleeding. They had come from two sides, but no one had seen that.
"Is what?" Wondered Hone.
"No ...", Heiji waved off: I don't think so, I didn't notice that the two of them were there at all ...
"Let's go, Sensei. You don't have to deal with him!", Akira took a different path and took her trainer with her.
+ ~ * ~ +
"Hm ..." Sen turned away from Heiji.
"What is it? Are you really that unforgiving?", He wondered: "It's been weeks since I called you a girl in love ... It really can't be.""Forgive yourself! I'm busy, you monkey!", Sen growled: "What should the girl in love actually mean? What are you imagining?"
"But I thought it was true. You're in love with Sasuke ...", Heiji shrugged and had to avoid a whole swing of Shuriken.
"That's not true! We're friends and nothing else!" Sen snapped mercilessly: "Stay out of things that are none of your business! Nobody asked you for your opinion!"
"Do you want to kill me? If it wasn't true, then ... HEY!", Heiji only saw Sen from behind, and then she was gone.
"She has her days ... that will be over tomorrow," said Sasuke, who had been listening. He stood behind Heiji, who drove around to him.
"Damn it, how do you do it? I always thought I was good! And what do you want from me? Attack me with needle lancets?"
"No, they are too good for that!", Sasuke shook his head: "You can't get any supplies here anyway.What else, stop spying on us. If I catch you doing it again, it's your turn, understand? "
Heiji scratched his head: "That was only once!"
"Once too much! You almost betrayed us, you overprivileged ninja cut. As bumbling as you are, it is a miracle that you are still alive. Be glad that your master does not know that you are still not recognized" Sasuke snapped at him.
"Ouch ... That's none of your business and I'm still older and more experienced. Besides, I'm good, what can I do for not being born in a ninja village. But how far have you come?", Heiji tried to address the topic change: "In four days Plogo should ..."
"Don't worry, we'll take care of the old man. Stay away from Sen, or you really have to take on me," Sasuke waved angrily. He had noticed of course that Heiji flirted with all women and that he tried again and again with Sen.
"Why then? Is she your boyfriend or something?", Heiji sighed and put on a sneaky grin.
"She's been my partner for almost three years and I don't feel like adjusting to someone else just because you put something in her head! I've already had enough to do with it that she doesn't just run away again ...", explained Sasuke and gave Heiji such a venomous look that he was glad not to be killed like this.
"And why is she doing this?"
"I don't know ...", Sasuke shrugged his shoulders: "You don't want to tell me, and it won't get rid of me that long."
"You are a strange couple ..." said Heiji soberly: "You just don't know what's going on between you ..."
"Well ... Sen and I are just like that. That makes us better than most teams, but to calm you down, we stand up for each other with our lives", Sasuke looked at Heiji: "That doesn't give a shit about you, take care of yourself about your things! "
"It's okay, I'll shut up ... I can't get to one of you anyway ...", Heiji gave up: "You won't be here too long anyway.The competition will be over in a few days anyway. "
"Exactly and ...", Sasuke paused, as if he had heard something.
"What now?", Heiji wondered and only saw Sasuke disappear: "Am I the jumping jack here?"
+ ~ * ~ +
"Sen?", Sasuke held Sen on the wrist: "What's wrong? I heard you."
"I was just scared ... How did you hear me? I didn't scream loudly ...", Sen wondered.
"I don't know, but what scares you. You're not that scared otherwise. Or was there a snake ..."
"No ... and stop making fun of my snake phobia ... It was nothing, really ... I just saw something that I shouldn't see ..." Sen waved him off. She had really only seen Kyoko and Shizun, but since they had just kissed, she had rather disappeared. It was Sen's first time that she had seen a couple like this, so she was a little frightened.
"Did Homaru notice you?" Sasuke wanted to know.
"Nonsense ... I'm not that stupid!", Sen resisted and took a step back:" Stop nagging me, will you? I'm not a kid and just because Kagome pulled you together doesn't mean something should change. Since then you've been so weird to me ... "
"Really?", Sasuke frowned: "How far?"
"You
