ask me and we are a team and also siblings. Since I am the older and rank above you, you will do what I tell you and not what Sensei Honè told you. He is no longer Your trainer! I know you're looking up to him, but that circumstance could stand his way. ""What are you allowing yourself !? He also gave you ..."
"Akira!", Shinji stabbed at his sister: "You have taken an oath. Stick to it!"
Akira fell silent suddenly.
"It looks like you're not a good topic. In that sense, I would skip it, because if you don't work, you're already dead. Don't get in our way!", Sasuke cleared his throat and stood up.
"We pull back and set our traps ...", Sen agreed and then looked at Akira: "Advice, never forget who and what you are. If you do, there will be a very rude awakening in the end."
"What do you mean by that?" Akira hissed at her.
Sen did not answer, but simply left the room with Sasuke.

"NO!", Akira thundered the door of the dojo.
"What about her?" Asked Kagome, who had noticed the argument a long time ago.
"She doesn't believe me!" Shinji sighed.
"You told her that you thought he was the murderer?", Kagome asked: "I was afraid that she wouldn't understand.""Yes, yes, but what should I do? You keep making him believe that he is a friendly, helpful man who only wants the best for you?"
"No, not that… I understand you really well, Shin, but what are you doing now? Aki might run to him and then she's delivered!", Kagome suddenly remembered.
"Heiji-san will make sure that she is not so stupid. He's been sneaking around behind her the whole time and taking care of her," Shinji assured her and put his hand on her head: "Don't worry, I'll get it that's okay, Kagome ... "
"Sure?", Kagome looked up at him: "I don't want him to kill you in the end ... He's a genius and you know that better than anyone else here."
"I know, but you forget that I am not alone."
"What do you mean?", Kagome wondered.
"Well, not only me and Akira are supposed to arrest him, but also the Shinobis. I'm sure that they will help me or Aki when the going gets tough.Don't you trust me "Shinji smiled at her friendly.
Kagome swallowed imperceptibly and gradually turned red in the face: "Yes! I trust you. We have known each other for so long and I love you so much. Why shouldn't I trust you? You were always there for me. Did you help me and you are my best friend ... Sure I trust you, but I can still be afraid, right? After all, it's a dangerous path you've taken ... "she paused and turned away. Her head soon seemed to explode.
"Oh you ...", Shinji hugged her and hugged her: "I like you. You are important to me, just like my sister. I am happy if you worry about me a little, but you overdo it a little . I won't die that soon. "
Kagome couldn't utter a word and her head didn't have a thought to put into practice. She could hear her heartbeat, which sounded like she was about to start hyperventilating.Why did he do this to her? That was really mean of him. She couldn't do anything now because she didn't know what. It was already difficult to concentrate in his presence and to be normal and now this ...
"Do you have what?" Shinji wanted to know and turned her around.
"Nope!", Kagome shook his head violently and looked as if spellbound at the floor.
"Sure? Take a look at me," and Shinji lifted her chin: "You're all red in the face ... do you have a fever?" His hand lay on her forehead and his other palm on his: "You are a little warm ... "
"I'm healthy!", Kagome contradicted quickly and took a step back: "I'm fine ... I just have to go on ... Kyoko-sama ... You know, she has to ... be swaddled ..."
"What?", Shinji frowned: "Are you sure everything is okay?"
"Yeah !!!", Kagome nodded and started walking, stumbling, but almost four times over a stone.
"She likes you ...", said Shizun, who had noticed."We grew up like siblings. Of course she likes me there ..." Shinji waved off.
"I didn't mean that. She's in love with you and just doesn't dare to open her mouth. It is more than strange that someone with your brain doesn't notice it," Shizun replied and stretched.
"I'm not like you, Shizun-sama, and I seduce young women. You should take it slow," Shinji replied without showing due respect.
"Am I too fast for you? I like Kyoko and she likes her, so why wait? The marriage is already fixed and even if Kyoko thinks she has it in her hands, it is not so. This alliance is so important for your province that Plogo asked me to conquer if I should like it. So I did, "Shizun explained.
"So you don't love Kyoko-sama at all?" Shinji grumbled.
"Yes, I do. Otherwise I wouldn't be here anymore," Shizun waved off: "Me and Heiji, we are pretty similar, only that I only look at the skirts that I really want.How about you? "
"I don't even look at skirts. I don't need to go to this level. As a samurai, I have sworn honor to my master and my country, I am not interested in anything else!", Shinji clarified slightly hotly.
"Liar!", Shizun said: "You use this as an excuse not to hurt those you love more than is necessary in the end. But you overlook the fact that you unconsciously keep looking and going to Kagome In the end you are just a man who has desires and urges. But that's just my opinion, Samurai, who knows, maybe you will fall in a fight before you attack Kagome, or you will withdraw because she will one day Finds others who don't treat them like you! "
"Even if it were, it would be none of your business. I have to go to Aki, you excuse me!", Shinji opened the door of the dojo.
"You're a samurai ... But that doesn't mean you have to be lonely," Shizun added, then Shinji had closed the door behind him.What does he want from me? Kagome is just a friend ... a very good and dear friend, one I like to see and ... shit ... Shinji stopped and clenched his fists. Shizun-sama was right, he didn't dare to want more from Kagome, because he always had to reckon with falling into service. Something he never wanted to do to her. It would be bad enough for them now, and once there was something more between them, he couldn't bear to leave them alone when his master called for his service.

"Shinji ..." said Akira, who was still very pissed off, but on the way. It was soon to come and they were just waiting for their target.
"What is it?", Shinji looked at her puzzled.
"Let's go, nobody comes here!" Said Akira. It was only after long talk that she had been persuaded to come here.
"I told you that you let yourself be blinded", Shinji sighed and sat down on one of the stones on the side of the path."I haven't! He's a real samurai! He has internalized all seven virtues! Gi: sincerity and justice, Yu: courage, Jin: kindness, Rei: courtesy, Makoto: truth, Meiyo: honor and Chù: duty and loyalty" Akira said angrily.
"He didn't, he just makes us all know. Aki, you know just as well that you adore him and therefore like to close your eyes to what you don't like. So finally stop telling you something. We will see who is right. If he comes to kill our master, then you have your proof, if someone else comes, I was wrong, "Shinji suggested to his little sister.
"Good! Then we'll see," Aki nodded seriously.
+ ~ * ~ +
"Are you all right?", Kagome sat with Kyoko and combed her hair. She kept thinking about Shinji and that he might die when faced with the one who wanted to kill Plogo.
"There is still time, I think everything will be fine and our samurai will catch the killer.Please don't worry Kagome. Shinji and Akira may not have that much experience yet, but they are the best we have right now. I know you're worried, but you don't have to, "Kyoko wanted to reassure her friend.
"Oh yeah? Shizun-sama told you what he has done and how good he is. That he masters samurai and ninja techniques. He has already killed so many and ..."
"Kagome, you really worry about him, aren't you?" Shizun put his hand on her shoulders. He had come so that the two girls wouldn't have to wait alone for the decision. Heiji was on guard, so he was able to protect all three at once: "That honors you, but he is not alone. Sen and Sasuke have the task of protecting him and Akira in the event of an incident safe. Everything will be fine. "
"Shizun ...", Kyoko looked at him confused: "What are you doing here? This is my bedchamber!""I know and excite you. After all, am I your admirer or not?", Shizun waved off: "Kagome, Shinji will come back alive, I guarantee you that."
"Shizun-sama ...", Kagome wiped a tear on his eyes: "I ... I want to believe you, but I'm scared. Shinji is good, yes, he has the main demands, but ..."
"Main demands?" Shizun asked.
"Yes, that is loyalty to rulers, parents, home, oneself and hard work. Then courtesy, love, modesty and etiquette, and thirdly then bravery, toughness, boldness, quick-wittedness, patience and perseverance. In fourth place is openness, honesty , Sense of honor, justice and, ultimately, simplicity and purity, "explained Kyoko.
"Yes, it is and I know that Shin has all of this, but he has never had such a dangerous opponent!", Kagome nodded eagerly.
"A lot, for a person, but it doesn't matter. Have confidence in both of you, okay?" Shizun ruffled Kagome's hair."But ...", Kagome had clung to her dress: "I didn't tell him ... I didn't dare ..."
"That you love him?", Asked Kyoko: "Why didn't you tell him? You've been after him for so long?"
"I don't dare! What if he doesn't love me and breaks our friendship because of it?" Sniffed Kagome.
"But that's always better than never knowing. Shinji is a man of honor, he would never admit to being in love. He wants to protect you and that's why he can't say anything. I think Shinji is afraid to hurt you, if he often has to leave you alone. You will always have to wait for him when you are together. You will miss him more than you do now and therefore he prefers to be lonely, "explained Shizun:" This is the case with some
