Radio Drama - Rikuo Sama and me (リクオ様とわたし)

This happened after the Shikoku Arc and before Rikuo went to Kyoto.

Tsurara: *Sigh* What is happening to me? ... Kejourou: Ah ra, what has happened to you, Yuki onna? Sitting here so lethargically. Tsurara: Kejourou? Kejourou: You're really lifeless. Are you feeling unwell? Tsurara: No.. I'm okay, just that don't know why I cannot gather any energy... Kejourou: In that case... do rest in the room for today. Tsurara: Mhm...

Human Rikuo: Ah re, Tsurara and Kejourou, what are you doing here? Tsurara: *very energetic * Waka! Kejourou: Eeeh.... Yuki onna was really lethargic just now. H.Rikuo : Is that so, Tsurara? Tsurara: That's not so! Don't know why I suddenly feel so energetic! H.Rikuo: Really? Don't force yourself, okay? Tsurara: Yes! hm, I am more worried about waka. Heard that you are always busy nowadays. H.Rikuo: Mhm. In order to rejuvenate the hyakki yakou (parade of 100 demons), I must do a lot of stuff,  but there's just not enough time. Tsurara: Waka~ *Running sound* Kurotabou: Rikuo sama! Here you are. H.Rikuo: Kuro? What happened? Kurotabou: I am here to report the matter which you had asked me to investigate yesterday. H.Rikuo: Woah~ you are very fast, Kuro. Kurotabou: For Rikuo sama, no matter it's day or night, I, Kuro, will get it done! Even it's walking 500 km within a night! H.Rikuo: Thank you, Kuro. Well then, let's hear your report in nearby hall. Ah, yeah, Tsurara, don't overexert yourself, okay. Tsurara: Yes~ I'm alright! Waka, please don't overexert yourself too ~ H.Rikuo: Mhm! Well, let's go, kuro.

Kurotabou: Hai Kejourou: Waka has become bestirred before we even know it. Feels that he is very reliable ne~ Don't you agree, Yuki onna~ Ah! Yuki onna?! Tsurara (sounding like a ghost): ....what....? Kejourou: Whwhwhwhwhat happened to you?! Suddenly became so desiccated?! Tsurara: ....Ah re... Don't know why I lost the energy all of a sudden... Kejourou: Don't tell me, that you are putting up a lively act in front of Rikuo sama...?  Tsurara: No. That time I really suddenly became energetic... Kejourou: ...what's going on... H.Rikuo: Kejourou! Tsurara: Waka! [Suddenly super genki] Kejourou: Ah! Yuki onna! H.Rikuo: Ah, Kejourou, just now I forgot. Actually I have some matter to ask you to help me with. Kejourou: Yes, what is it?~ H.Rikuo: Can you go into my room and bring out the laundry? Some of the clothes are a bit torn. Kejourou: Okay, understood. Tsurara: Waka! What about me? Is there anything for me to do?~ H.Rikuo: Eh? Hmm... not really... rather, Tsurara, you better rest for a while. Tsurara: I am feeling very energetic~ H.Rikuo: If that's so, there's nothing... Well then, I shall leave the matter to you, Kejourou~ Kejourou: Okay~ Tsurara [losing her energy again]: So good, Kejourou... Waka relied so much on you...  Kejourou: He didn't relied on me, only entrusted some duties~ Tsurara:  Yes, that is right... but Waka never relied on me to this extend... Kejourou: Waka wants you to have a good rest~ Tsurara: Oh... but.... Kejourou: Ne, don't tell me, yuki onna, you are very lonely~? Tsurara: Eh?! Kejourou: Because Rikuo sama are very busy and doesn't have much time, that's why you are lonely and don't have much energy~ Tsurara: Eh?! Wh...what are you saying, Kejourou! Kejourou: *laugh* Yuki onna, if your face keeps on turning red, you will melt, yo~ Tsurara: Tha..that's wrong! It's not like that! ..Ee! Already told you that it's not like that~! Kejourou: Ah wait, yuki onna? Tsurara: *ran faraway～*I am not lonely~!~! Kejourou: *laugh*  Really very cute~

------------------------------------------ Tsurara *run run run run* Tsurara: *catching breath*... Seriously Kejourou... only spout gibberish.. Ah re? This.. is Rikuo sama's room...ran all the way here without knowing it...*Opened door*Since I'm here, I will bring waka's uniform to Kejourou~ This way, I will be helping out some of Kejourou's duties~ Yes, let's do it~ *Tsurara walked into the room* Tsurara: Here~ here~ Hmm? Although I didn't see any tears.. Is it if it's not worn, one won't know? Yes yes yes, that is so! So...so... only for a while... *sound of taking clothes off the hanger and wearing it* Wore it.. Rikuo sama's uniform... ah re? It doesn't look odd from the external, still it's too big. Ah, I see. The shoulder width is different...  *Door opened* Kejourou: Excuse me, Rikuo sama~ Well, he wouldn't be in~ Tsurara: Ah.. Kejourou: Eh eh eh!!! What are you doing?! Tsurara: AAAAHHHHHH!! Don't.. Don't look!! Kejourou: Don't look?! Eeeeh?! Serious.. Seriously?!! Tsurara: No..., it's not like that! T... This is only to examine the uniform for tears! Kejourou: Why do you need to wear it?! Tsurara: *laugh nervously* That's because I was nearby and want to confirm it! Kejourou: Simply not just nearby, I think! Tsurara: But..but I'm near..near...nearby! *Door opened again* Kubinashi: Kejourou? Why is it so noisy in Rikuo sama's room? Kejourou: Ah..baka! Don't look! Kubinashi: Eh? What are you... Eh?! Yuki onna?! Tsurara: AAaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~!!!! *fainted* Kejourou: Yuki onna?! Pull yourself together! Kubinashi: What happened?! Kejourou: Ah.. she seems to have lost consciousness... Kubinashi: What? Kejourou: Seems that she had fainted because she was too embarrassed... Kubinashi: Wh.. what is this..? So much fuss over nothing... Kejourou: *laugh* But isn't this very cute~ Wearing waka's uniform~ Kubinashi: But, why so sudden? Is she thinking of changing fashion style? Kejourou: Well.. It's not like this~ This kid caught the "Rikuo sama deficiency" sickness. Kubinashi: "Rikuo sama deficiency" sickness?! What is that? Kejourou: Isn't  Rikuo sama very busy recently? That's why she doesn't get his attention. She feels very lonely and becomes like this in the end. Kubinashi: Ha.. Rikuo sama is guilty... Kejourou: *sigh* oh well~ for Yuki onna, I, as a sister, should give a helping hand. Kubinashi, come and help me~ Kubinashi: Yes.. --------------------- Kejourou: Well, The reason why I have gathered you all is to share the memories we have with Rikuo sama~ Aotabou: Oi oi, why are you doing this?

Kurotabou: Ao is right, what's going on, Kejourou?

Kejourou: It's just for a while~ To have everyone sharing past incidences involving Rikuo sama, won't it be fun?~

Kubinashi: *to himself* So this is the cure for the deficiency...

Tsurara: Eh? Why are you looking at me in such a manner, Kubinashi?

Kubinashi: No no, nothing. Well, who shall start?

Aotabou: The first will be me. Me!

Kurotabou: Why so enthusiastic all a sudden?

Aotabou: That is because I have countless memories with Rikuo sama. You all can just listen to how much Rikuo sama trusts and relies on me!

Kurotabou: I can't continue listen to this kind of talk!

Tsurara: That's right. Ao is not the only person being trusted!

Aotabou: Ha,just listen. This happened when waka was small, a time when his youkai blood was not yet awakened. That day, I was summoned by Rikuo sama.*imitating young H.Rikuo's voice* Ao, I want to request your help on something~ This is something which I cannot ask Kurotabou, Kubinashi and Yuki onna to help. Ao, can you help me? *Back to normal voice* How is that! You all haven't been requested by Rikuo to help in this way! You can't think of anything to say, right?!

Kubinashi: As of now, I cannot say Ao's past memories of Rikuo sama are awesome... 

Kurotabou: it's impossible to have something which only Ao can do and I cannot!

Kubinashi: Eh? No one listens to me?

Tsurara: Ao! What have you been requested to do?!

Kubinashi: Yuki onna also?

Aotabou: Hah! All of you listen carefully, Waka's request for me is: to dig hole~

Tsurara: Dig hole?

Aotabou: He said he wanted to dig a very huge deep hole. And I, who was being trusted, dug one hole for Waka happily. How's that!! Envious of the profound trust between Waka and me, right! Ah?! What's the matter, everyone? Why all have funny expression...?

Kubinashi: Ao, let me confirm one incident first... on that day... did you not drop into the hole prepared by Waka?

Aotabou: Huh? What about that... after all, Waka is too naughty at that time.. Aaah?!

Kurotabou: *swing weapon* So that hole was your masterpiece!

Aotabou: N...no! At that time, I didn't realise it was for the prank.

Kurotabou: I was thinking how did Rikuo sama dug such a huge deep hole at that time. So i see, it's you this big idiot

Aotabou: *interrupt* Unexpected! That's unexpected!!

Tsurara: Mo... I was thinking what is incident that Rikuo sama had trusted you. It's just digging that hole.

Kubinashi: I think Rikuo sama trusted Aotabou's naiveness.

Aotabou: How can that be...

Kurotabou: Really. That memory is not something great.

Aotabou: ... Then what about you!

Kejourou: He's right. Then next, Kuro, it's your turn to say something～

Kurotabout: Mhm, okay. Then I will talk about something that happened recently. That is the incident of taking bath with Rikuo sama.

Tsurara: Taking bath with Ri...Rikuo sama!!

Kejourou: Hey, what are you talking about!

Kurotabou: What do you mean by what ah...! We just go to bathe together as per normal ah..! As always...

[in the bathouse, running water]　

Kurotabou: Such a comfortable bath, Waka

H.Rikuo: Mhm, you are right

Kurotabou: But it's really rare that Waka ask me to bathe together.

H.Rikuo: Felt that doing this occasionally is not bad ～

Kurotabou: Really nostalgic~ I always rubbed the back of little Waka...Such a rare opportunity, why not I help waka to rub your back?

H.Rikuo: Aaaahhh! It's okay, I can do it myself. And more importantly.. that...

Kurotabou: Rikuo sama?

H.Rikuo: Kuro, I want to ask you about something.

Kurotabou: Ask me about something..? Waka, what is it?

H.Rikuo: Ahh.. you may find it weird if I ask this.... but for this matter... I can only ask you!

Kurotabou: Please calm down, Rikuo sama. If the question is something that only I can answer, then no matter what it is, I will tell waka. H.Rikuo: Really? No matter what it is? Kurotabou: Yes, absolutely. Since we trust each other, there's nothing much to hide. H.Rikuo: I see! You are right! Then I am going to ask. Kuro! Kurotabou: Yes? H.Rikuo: Kuro, what shampoo do you usually use?! Kurotabou: yes..? H.Rikuo: Isn't Kuro's hair always black and straight? So what shampoo do you usually use, please tell me! Kurotabou: Hmm? That is.. telling waka is not a problem... but why do you ask..? H.Rikuo: I am bothered about this for quite long...isn't the hair of my night form very outlandish? Kurotabou: Eh? Mmm... ma... yeah... H.Rikuo: No matter how I fix it, it will not bend down due to the result of force. I also know it's not because of that reason, only want to know if I change the shampoo, maybe my hair will become more tamed. I really, really do mind ah. Kurotabou: Ah..... H.Rikuo: Feel really strange right.... I also think hearing this kind of matter will be very weird... but once I am bothered... sorry, have asked such a weird question... Kurotabou: Nonono, there's nothing to apologise about, Rikuo sama. In fact, should say that I am very happy. H.Rikuo: Eh? Kurotabou: Rikuo sama who used to always shunned the youkai blood, is now interested in night form's posture. Maybe you think it's not a big deal, but this makes me feel really happy.  ---------- Kurotabou: That's what happened. Kejourou: Waka, seriously... if it is about hair, should just ask me directly. Kurotabou: Waka is also a guy. To ask Kejourou, a woman, about hair, he will feel embarrassed. Tsurara: I actually have no idea that Waka is taking account of this matter... Kejourou: But then again, Waka's hairstyle is really incredible.. Kubinashi: Waka's father, Rihan sama, had incredible hairstyle too. Kurotabou: Maybe it's the youkai's blood that gave this kind of hairstyle. Kejourou: Come to think of it, Kuro, didn't you got swept by that hairstyle in the face a while ago? Kurotabou: ... how did you know this? Aotabou: Hmm? What are you talking about? Kejourou: Well, while waka was still in the night form, Kurotabou called him from behind. Waka turned his head and his hair literally swept Kurotabou's face~ Aotabou: Wahahahaha~ so funny, Kuro, so funny~ Kurotabou: Stop laughing! The timing is just not right at that time! Kubinashi: True, need to be careful when approaching Waka from the back. Kejourou: standing behind Waka is surprisingly difficult~ Tsurara: So good, I want to be swept by Waka's hair. Woah, just woah! Kubinashi: That's not correct.......

H.Rikuo: Kuro, Ao, here you are...

Tsurara: Rikuo sama! What.. what do you need? Just woah?~!

H.Rikuo: Woah? What is that?

Tsurara: Oops. What am i doing... nothing ~

H.Rikuo: Eh?

Kurotabou: Rikuo sama, you are looking for Ao and me?

H.Rikuo: Ah...mhm! Kuro, Ao, sorry to interrupt you during your rest time, but can you come over for a while?

Aotabou: Sure! Dig hole or others, can count on me!

H.Rikuo; Dig hole?

Aotabou: No no, I just talking to myself.

Kurotabou: Well, let's go to the front hall.

H.Rikuo; Mhm, let's do that~

Kurotabou: Let's go.

Aotabou: Aa

[Door closed]

Kejourou: Rikuo sama seems to be very busy.

Tsurara: Is... is that I already can't stand by Waka's side....

Kejourou: Yuki onna?

Tsurara: Only call Ao and Kuro, ...I...I...

Kejourou: It's just coincidence~ Both were called by chance~ Isn't that so, Kubinashi?

Kubinashi: Yeah! As you can see, Kejourou and me were not called.

Tsurara: That's right, but... *crying* wo wo wo...

Kejourou: Ah, yeah, this round I will talk about what I know about Rikuo sama for you~ So cheer up~

Tsurara: *cries*

Kejourou: This happened while everyone were in the backyard, preparing for barbeque`  

----------------------------- [Chop chop chop]

H.Rikuo: Hmm, alright, finished these carrots~ Kejourou, We will be done after chopping the onions, right? 

Kejourou: Yes, that's right. Waka, leave the barbeque preparation to us. There's no need for Waka to come and help.

H.Rikuo: Nono, do let me help from time to time~

Kejourou: eh...

[continue chopping]

H.Rikuo: Mhm...hm hm..*cries*

Kejourou: Waka?! What happened to you?! Did you cut your hand?!

H.Rikuo: *crying* Hmm.. sniff.. n...no... the onions went into my eyes...

Kejourou: What is it?? Onions what?! Ah Onions..?

H.Rikuo: *crying* Onions can really hurt the eyes...

Kejourou: Ah?

H.Rikuo: Mhm...ah... always have to ask you all to prepare the meals. This is my first time. [to prepare]

Kejourou: *laugh* ma~ I see~

H.Rikuo: still quite painful...

Kejourou: Well, I will chop the onions~ Can you start the fire?

H.Rikuo: Start fire, I understand~

[chop chop chop]

H.Rikuo: wo~ Amazing, Kejourou. It will not go into your eyes?

Kejourou: *laugh* There's a tactic in chopping onions.

H.Rikuo: Aaah, tactic? Ah, to start fire, is it this thing over here?

Kejourou: Yes. Well then I am counting on you~ The matches are over there~

H.Rikuo: Ooh [light match and it extinguished] Eh? Ara? [light and the match extinguished again] It seems it will not ignite... Then~ Here!

[Night Rikuo appear!]

Kejourou: Rikuo sama? Why suddenly changed into the youkai form?

Y.Rikuo: Do I need to say it, Kejourou? Of course, it's to kindle the fire.

Kejourou: Huh?

Y.Rikuo: You have waited long, Match. Now I will ignite you with the strongest fire! Now starting..!  Ougi Meikyou Shi.....

Kejourou: ST-----OP---! STOP STOP!

Y.Rikuo: What is it, Kejourou?

Kejourou: Rikuo sama! Don't need such a big igniter, the fire can also kindle!

Y.Rikuo: Is that so?

Kejourou: Yes, that's right. [light up the match] Like this... and then add the firewood in

Y.Rikuo: that's such a small fire, will it be alright?

Kejourou: Need some time for the firewood to ignite, please add in slowly.

Y.Rikuo: I see. I really don't know anything. Sorry about it, I was thinking of helping, but in the end, messed it up.

Kejourou: No, nothing of the kind~ It's because of Rikuo sama's help, the food preparation went smoothly~

Y.Rikuo: Kejourou is really kind-hearted Kejourou: Ri..Rikuo sama... --------------------------

Kejourou: That's what had happened~ Tsurara: So good~ Soo good~ I also wish to have this [experience] Kejourou: That can't be help. Whenever there's barbeque, you are always in some other place. [me: i guess it's just too hot for yuki onna :D] Tsurara: Yes that's right. But even so, I still wish to cook with Waka! Kubinashi: But why did Rikuo sama suddenly came to help the food preparation? Tsurara: Come to think of it, this never happened before. Kejourou: Ah~ That's because... H.Rikuo: I have been pondering recently that is there anything I can do. Even now, I have always been helped by everyone in the clan. So from now on, even it's a tiny bit, I wish to protect everyone. And because of this, I wish to try out everything, want to know what I can do. Kejourou: That's to say, Waka has taken alot of things into consideration. Tsurara: Waka, because of us, he... [open door] Kurotabou: Kejourou, Waka has asked for you. Kejourou: Eh? Me? Kuroutabou: Yeah, waiting for you in the front hall Kejourou: Understand, I will go immediately. I wonder why is he looking for me~ Kubinashi [small voice] Idiot, Kejourou! Try not to say those things in front of Yuki Onna! Kejourou: Ah! Well... ah.. Kubinashi, the rest is up to you~ Kubinashi: Ah! She slipped off! Well.. Yuki onna? You do not need to mind. It just that today, Rikuo happened to have something to ask Kejourou. Maybe he will have something important to ask you tomorrow, right? Tsurara: *laugh* it's alright now, Kubinashi Kubinashi: Eh? Tsurara; I won't be so spoilt  Kubinashi: Is.. is that so? Tsurara: Mhm, I understood something after listening to everyone Kubinashi: Understood? Tsurara: Waka's feelings. I've been protecting waka since he was still young, stay beside him, no matter what happened, I will protect him, thinking that this is only natural. Kubinashi: Even now, it is still so, isn't it? Tsurara: Mhm, but.. the present waka also thinking of changing, In order to lead us as a master of all evil spirits and demons, he's working hard to be strong and powerful. Kubinashi: You are right. Tsurara: If Rikuo sama is changing, I, too, need to change. Cannot just stay beside him to protect him. I need to be useful to Waka in other ways. Kubinashi: Yuki onna... Tsurara: Ok~ Don't know why but I feel energetic again~ Since Kejourou is busy with Rikuo sama, dinner will be prepared by the energetic me. Come and help me, Kubinashi Kubinashi: Eh? Me? Tsurara: Mhm! For the busy Waka, of course it will be meat~ With Kubinashi around, we can roast it~ And alot can be done with your string~ Kubinashi: Erm... my string is not used for those things Tsurara: Okay~ to the kitchen ~ Let's go Kubinashi: Eh... let's go... ----------------------- [Tsurara's Monologue] Rikuo sama, the little Rikuo sama, who need to rise up his head to look at me, is now the same height as me without realizing it. I don't know when his shoulders become wider than mine. And, now this back, carries hundred of youkai, takes care of himself, protects comrades, always look towards the distant. The change in waka, makes me feel a bit lonely. Always feels that I cannot catch up with him. But, it's not like that, if feel that I cannot catch up, I only need to run after him and follow him. ------------------------------ Kejourou: You are really going? Yuki onna, Aotabou? Tsurara: Mhm, if what Kurotabou said is correct, I am very worried about the paranormal gang that are going to Kyoko. Aotabou: Really, the first three had been killed. The Keikain onmyouji don't have any talent. Kubinashi: Although we should let Rikuo sama know about this, but now he's still with the Toono youkai. Tsurara: What! Especially at such times, we should consider what things we should be doing! We will go to Kyoko and protect the paranormal patrol. This way, Rikuo sama will not be worried during battles. Aotabou: Ah~ I see. Tsurara: Ao!  You are preparing to go to Kyoto without any understanding? Aotabou: .. no no! I have also thought of helping them. Tsurara: Really! Buckle up a bit, Ao. Kejourou: Ara ara, get ready to go. Why is that girls are still dominated in some stuff? Kubinashi: It will be troublesome if things get tricky... Kejourou: You this mood spoiler [hit kubinashi] Kubinashi: Ah! Why... why am I hit? Kejourou: You should ask that to yourself Kubinashi: Eh? Kejourou: ...really! You this guy is really... Tsurara: *laugh* Well Ao, we should be going~ Aotabou: Oh Mhm! Tsurara: Well then, ittekimasu! ---------- [Tsurara's Monologue] Rikuo sama, the burden which Rikuo sama shoulders, the things that need to be protect. I will help you to guard. As a member of the Hyakki (100 demons), this is my mission. Rikuo sama, please watch. I will try my very best! ----------------------- Y.Rikuo: Well, you all, be ready. I have decided the path to go onwards. From here, my Night Parade of 100 demons is starting. All of you youkai, become the Night Parade behind me!

A Three-Generation Tavern Chronicle of Nurarihyon Slipperiness: Rikuo and Tsurara

*sounds of running in the rain*

Rikuo: *knocks on the door* Excuse me Lady: *opens door* Yes, who is it? Ah Rikuo: Erm, can we take shelter here from the rain? Lady: Of course, come in. I will go and get the towels. *sigh* Rikuo: Thank you. Tsurara, we can take shelter. Tsurara: That's great! Waka won't be catching a cold. *closes door* Lady: Here's the towels. Please use them. *sigh* I will go and make some hot soup. Tsurara: Thank you very much! Well waka, let's towel dry wipe~wipe~wipe~wipe~ Rikuo: Aaaaah, wait, Tsurara, it's alright, I can dry myself Tsurara: No, it will be a problem if you catch a cold. wipe~wipe~wipe~wipe~ Rikuo: Even so...

Tsurara: Ah, here too.

(Tsurara: once again, wipe~wipe~wipe~) Rikuo: Aaaaaah ~~there~~~ahahahahahahahahahaha, Tsurara, it's ticklish~~~ahahhahaahhahaa

(Tsurara: wipe~wipe~wipe~wipe~wipe~wipe~) Rikuo: wai~wait~ Ssttoopp ~ stoooppp~~Tsurara ahahahahahahahahha I say stop! Tsurara: Yes, almost completely dried. Rikuo: *panting* Thank you. Well then let me dry you (I'm so tempted to put "I will wipe you" XD) Tsurara: As for me, I'll be alright. I can dry myself

Rikuo: Really? Tsurara: Yes, no need to worry. wipe~wipe~wipe~

Tsurara's inner thoughts: Eh?? Stupid, stupid, stupid me!! Why did I reject?? It's such a rare chance that Waka said he want to dry me! Oooh man!!! Lady: Please come over here. Hot soup is ready. Please drink some. *sigh* Rikuo: Hai, itadakimasu Tsurara: Erm... hot stuff to me... Lady: You... are a snow woman. Let's get you something cold. *drink tea* *sigh* Rikuo: Say... is there something troubling you?

Lady: Eh?

Rikuo: Because you have been sighing continuously from just now. Lady: Ahla~ is that so? *sigh* Tsurara: See, you sighed just now. What happened?

Lady: Well.. by right, I shouldn't discuss this with guests... Actually I am waiting for someone since long ago.

Tsurara: waiting for someone since long ago? By no means, is it someone you loved?

Lady: Well.. should be this feeling I guess. *Sigh* The longer I wait, the more I am unsure when will meet the person in this inn. *sigh*

Rikuo: How long have you waited? Lady: For more than a decade.

Tsurara: Amazing. Waiting for just that person for such a long time. You're really great.

Lady: Is that so? *sigh*

Tsurara: Yes! Don't you think so too, waka?

Rikuo: Eh? Yes..

Tsurara: Waka? Rikuo: Ah... nothing. I am thinking how does it feel to be waiting for 10 years.

Tsurara: What kind of feeling... usually should be very lonely?

Rikuo: There should be many types of loneliness? If all were labelled as just loneliness, won't it be too simple? Just now I was thinking, if I am waiting for that person for more than a decade...

Tsurara: Waka...

Lady: Rikuo sama, you have someone that you like too? Rikuo: Yes Tsurara: EH?? Who?? Who do you like?? Rikuo: Isn't that needless to say? Of course it's everyone in the clan

Tsurara: Eh?

Rikuo: Everyone in nura clan is like my family. I love all of them Tsurara: So... so i see... that means, I too...

Rikuo: Of course, Tsurara is an important family member.

Tsurara's inner thoughts: Family member? Should I feel happy or desolate?  Nevertheless, am still happy!

Rikuo: If I can't see everyone for 10 over years, I will feel very sad. If I am to really experience that, it will be even more...

Lady: You are really warm hearted, Rikuo sama.

Rikuo: Eh? Lady: The only person that understand my feelings is only you, Rikuo sama. To be deemed as important, your nakama must be very fortunate.

Rikuo: No... far from it. I am always taken care of by them. Huh? My name...

Tsurara: What are you saying, waka! There's no one more considerate of their nakama than waka. Always placing others first and putting own self aside.

Rikuo: No, this is what I should be doing.

Tsurara: In the past too. You are clearly very tired, but still do your homework doggedly at the night. Seeing you like this, I am so moved that I want to cry.

Rikuo: Eh? You saw it, Tsurara? Tsurara: Yes. When I heard waka saying, " Quadratic equation to me is just a piece of cake", I was so touched that I wanted to faint. Rikuo: Ahhh, enough, enough. Nothing is more embarrassing than baffling actions caused by lack of sleep .

Lady: Both of you are really close. 

Rikuo: Haha, sorry, we are very noisy.

Lady: It's okay. It's been a long while since this inn was this lively. Tsurara: Recent customers, all are very quiet?

Lady: No, this inn doesn't have any customer for a long time. Tsurara: Eh? Why?

Lady: There are people who will cause a disturbance when they see customers in this inn.

Rikuo: People who cause disturbance?

Lady: They are a group of youkai who wished to seize this land. They started to create a ruckus ever since I rejected them during the first negotiation.

*sounds of banging on the door*

Tsurara: Wh...what? Rikuo: They have damaged the wall.

Lady: How did it come to this? This is dangerous. Please quickly escape from the backdoor. Tsurara: What? What about you?

Lady: I.... will give up this inn.

Tsurara: Eh? But aren't you waiting for someone?

Lady: No choice... this... I... Tsurara: But haven't you been always waiting?

Youkai Rikuo: Oi oi, isn't it too early to give up?

Lady: Eh? That figure...

Youkai Rikuo: I will deal with them immediately. Wait for a while.

Lady: Don't tell me you intend to fight with the youkai? Cannot! Those fellows are merciless.

Tsurara: No, it's alright. Because he is a master that protects nakama and leads them. This is his hyakki yakou (night parade of 100 demons)

Y.Rikuo: Only know how to destroy store. What a group of despicable cowards. Listen carefully and remember this well. This is my territory and to those who are unruly *swing sword* I, Nura clan's Third Leader, Nura Rikuo, will not forgive.

*sounds of sword striking* Tsurara: Waka, I will help too, Noroi no Fubuki. *blow*

Y.Rikuo: *sword strike* Hum, can't endure one hit.

Tsurara: Waka, are you hurt?

Y.Rikuo: Not at all.

Lady: Amazing. In a blink of an eye, those ferocious youkai were...

Y.Rikuo: Lady boss, from now on, you can continue manning this inn.

Lady: Yes, I am very grateful to receive your protection.

Tsurara: Ah, right, as for the person whom the lady boss is waiting for, what kind of person is he? With some information, our clan can help you to find.

Lady: Yes... Well.. I have already met him...

Tsurara: Huh?

Y.Rikuo: How is that so?

Lady: I have been always waiting for Rikuo sama, your visit.

Y.Rikuo: What?

Lady: Rihan sama had promised that one day he would bring a grown up Rikuo sama to this place and drink together.

Y.Rikuo: My father?

Lady: Yes, since Rihan sama had passed away, that promise was not realised. But I always hope that one day will meet Rikuo sama.

Y.Rikuo: So I see.. it's my father. You must have gotten my name from my father?

Lady: Yes. And because I only know the name, I am very sorry that I didn't recognize you from the beginning. Y.Rikuo: No, that's nothing. And Lady boss, can order some wine? And bring 4 glasses.

Tsurara: 4?

Y.Rikuo: Mine, Tsurara's, Lady boss' and my father's.

Tsurara: Ha Lady: I understand

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lady: That, sorry. tonight...

Nurarihyon: Long time no see, lady boss

Lady: Ah, Supreme Commander, how rare.

Nurarihyon: I have heard from Rikuo about the trouble. It's been hard for you.

Lady: No, but it's fortunate that 3rd Leader was here. When I first knew that he is Rikuo sama, I was very shocked and wonder why he was the master, but since I saw his other form, I understood.

Nurarihyon: Same as Rihan?

Lady: And Supreme Commander too. Both exterior and internally.

Nurarihyon: Is that so? Lady: Yes and all treasure their hyakki yakou. Really the same.

Nurarihyon: Rikuo that fellow is still far behind. For his hyakki yakou to obey him, he is still lacking.

Lady: Oh and also being popular with the girls is hereditary.

Nurarihyon: What? That kid is popular? Where? Which girl?

Lady boss: Ok ok, please take a seat first. We will talk while drinking. Seem like for tonight, we will not go home without being drunk.

NURA-GUMI, HIKYOU TANKENTAI!? (NURA CLAN, EXPLORING THE UNEXPLORED)

[forest sounds] Zen: OOOSU!! Rikuo: *blinks* E-e-eh? W-What? Zen: You don’t seem okay. Ora, one more time! OOOSU!!! Rikuo: H-hum... what? What am I to do? Zen: It’s obvious, right? Do the same as me! OOOSU! Rikuo: O... ooosu...! Zen: IDIOT! I’M TELLING YOU DON’T SEEM OKAY!! TRY DOING IT MORE LIVELILY!! OO— *vomits blood* Rikuo: What?!? Don’t overdo it!! Zen: O... ora...! You guys too... Kuro/Ao/Kubinashi: Eeeh? Zen: The yell. Yell! LET’S GO!! *vomits blood* Rikuo: Before yelling, you should worry about your body, Zen-kun! Zen: *vomiting* How is it, Rikuo? You will... yell, right? Rikuo: Eh? A-Ah... h-hm. Zen: and you? Kuro/Ao/Kubinashi: A-ah... *sweat-drop* hmm... Zen: Oi, oi, what’s with you? Did you think this was going to be an easy journey? That reminds me, Yuki Onna! You’ve been trailing behind all this time, not keeping up with everyone’s pace, and always silent! Kubinashi: no, hum... Zen: The place we’re going to from here is not the slightest bits pleasant, y’know? And even so, you– Kubinashi: Ah, wait... Zen-sama– Zen: Don’t interrupt me, Kubinashi. I’m doing this for Yuki Onna’s sake. Kubinashi: No... Yuki Onna is... melting in this heat, you see. Tsurara: Eeeeh... hoooot... Rikuo: Aaah?? Tsu-Tsu-Tsu-Tsu-Tsurara?! Hang in there! Tsurara: I have no excuses, Waka... I... can’t do anything... Ao: That’s why I said it was gonna be impossible for you! Do you know what this is? [wild bird sounds] Ao: A freaking jungle! Jungle! Hot and damp... the last place you should be at! And even so, you forced yourself to come along... Kuro: Well, wait, Ao. Ao: But, Kuro! Kuro: It is that kind of situation. She couldn’t have just sat and waited for us. I understand that feeling. Ao: But...! It has become like this! Tsurara: *painful moans* Rikuo: Yuki Onna... you should go back after all... Tsurara: *gasp* I... I’m fine, Waka! This heat, if it’s for Waka’s sake, then... if it’s to save... Waka’s life, then...! Rikuo: Tsurara... Zen: Rikuo, you too. Rikuo: Zen-kun... Zen: From here on is the real unexplored area. Even as youkai, there’s no life guarantee. You’re the one supposed to command the Nura Clan in the future. Your body is important. Rikuo: But, Zen-kun is going for my sake, right, to such a dangerous place? Zen: yeah. Because there’s no other place in the world with the remedy you need. If I were to count on someone else, I wouldn’t be able to forgive them if they messed up. This is something that must involve you and me together. R/T: *gulp* Ao: Still... I can’t believe it... that Waka has anything... Kuro: No, if you think about it, it’s not strange. Waka has ¼ of youkai blood and ¾ of human blood – it’s a special body. We don’t know what could happen as every second passes– Ao: Oi!! Don’t say this kind of stuff!! Kuro: Ah... s-sorry... Zen: Anyways, let me say it again! The place we’re about to go through isn’t easy for either humans or youkai! It’s a dangerous jungle! It’s not like I know all about it. There’s no life guarantee. Even so... you’re coming? Tsurara: I’m going!! Rikuo: Tsurara! Tsurara: I’m obviously going! It’s okay! I’ve brought a lot of ice! I’m like this, but, if I can’t work for Waka’s sake, I’m not being myself!! Ao: I’m going too! Because it’s for Waka. Kuro: Same here! Kubinashi: Well, we’ve already come this far, ne? Zen: Aotabou, Kurotabou, Kubinashi... I can certainly understand your feelings! Then, one more time... LET’S GO, YOU GUYS!! OOOSU!!! A/K/K/T: OOOOSU!!! Zen: *vomits blood* Rikuo: Wh—Zen-kun?! Kubinashi: I’m worried the most about Zen-sama... *sigh* ~ Kuro: *cutting branches* This is pretty deep... quite a bit of body mass is needed to simply walk here... Ao: What? Already wavering, Kuro? Such a bum! Kuro: Haaa?! Who are you calling a bum?! You, too, dropped your walking speed a while ago! Ao: Haa? When did I drop my walking speed?! You’re definitely making it up! Ora! *walks faster* Kuro: *laughs* Don’t overdo it, Aotabou! *walks faster* Ao: Why are you following me?! Don’t be a bother!! *walks even faster* Kuro: I’m not following you at all! I’m just walking normally! *walks even faster* Ao: Don’t lie! Aren’t you way faster than normal?! Kuro: Huh! You too!! Ao: Dammit... think I will lose?! A/K: UOOOOOAAAAAH!! *run* Kubinashi: You two! If you go too far ahead, you’ll get lost! Tsurara: *trips and falls* Rikuo: You okay, Tsurara? Tsurara: I-I’m sorry! Looks like my foot got stuck in that tree root... Rikuo: Can you stand? Here, use my hand. Tsurara: Wh? Waka... for my sake...?? Rikuo: Of course. We have to help each other, ne? Here. Tsurara: T... thank you very much! Then... I will accept... Zen: *vomits blood* Rikuo: Zen-kun?! You okay, Zen-kun?! Tsurara: Eh? Uh? Waka?! Rikuo: Mou... you really shouldn’t overdo it, Zen-kun... Zen: Heh... what are you saying? It was just a little... *vomits more blood* Rikuo: Let’s rest here for a bit. Here, I’ll help you move. Zen: M... my bad, Rikuo... Rikuo: It’s fine! It’s mutualism, after all. Zen: Rikuo... Rikuo: *giggles* Tsurara: H-hum... I’m still stuck here, though... what about me, Waka...? Kubinashi: Well, well. Zen-sama has poor health, ne? It can’t be helped. Tsurara: Why can’t it be helped that Zen-sama has poor health?? Khhh...! Rikuo: Everyone, I would like to take a break here now... are? Where’re Kurotabou and Aotabou? Kubinashi: About that... the two went on ahead... Rikuo: Eh? Is that so? Oi! Aotabou! Kurotabou! Come back! Let’s take a quick break! [moving bushes] Rikuo: Ah! They’ve come, they’ve come! Kubinashi: Are? That doesn’t seem like the way they went to... [moving bushes] K/R: Eeh?! Zen: *exhales* My bad, Rikuo. I’m okay now. Let’s hurry up and go to where the remedy is. Rikuo: Ah... eeeh?? Ah...! Zen: Ahn? What are you doing, Rikuo? I’m saying we can go. Tsurara: A... a-a-a-a-ah...! Kubinashi: U-u-uuuh... Zen: Oi, Yuki Onna and Kubinashi. How about you say something too? Uh? By the way... those Ao and Kuro fellows... Rikuo: Behind you... Zen: Huh? Rikuo: Zen-kun, behind you! Zen: Ah? “Behind me”? They’re behind me, those Ao and Kuro fellows? *turns and gasps* Rikuo: B-behind... right behind Zen-kun...!! Zen: Oh... oi, oi, Aotabou... you... during the quick while I took my eyes off you, haven’t you become quite hairy? Eeh? Tsurara: *nervous laugh* T... that’s it, ne? It’s Ao, ne?? He has just become a little hairy... his face and palms have just become a little black... and it seems he’s just groaning a little...! Zen: Oi, you’re alone, Aotabou? Where did that Kurotabou fellow go? Hm? Kubinashi: no...! Hum... you two, you’re thinking the impossible! Rikuo: Anyways... this is... this iiiis...!! R/T/K/Z: GORILLAAAA!!! [gorila cry] R/T: WAAAAH!! Zen: R... run!! R/T/K/Z: *scream as they run* [gorila cry] ~ R/T: *panting* Rikuo: That was a shock...! Tsurara: A... are you okay, Waka? Rikuo: Aah. Tsurara, too. Are you? Tsurara: Ah... yes...! I am... I am... Rikuo: Waaah! A-A-A... Are you okay, Tsurara?! Tsurara: I... I’m sorry... while I was running, I dropped my backpack of ice bags... *cries* It’s hooot... Rikuo: Eh?! *thinking* W-W-W-What to do?? At this rate, Tsurara will...! *gasps* That’s it! Strip, Tsurara. Tsurara: Heh? “Strip”, you say?? HEEEH??! Eh, wai... Waka... that... in a place like this... I’m still... not ready... Rikuo: Ora! Hurry up and do it! Tsurara: C-could it be you want to share warmth? No... in my case, sharing warmth would be troublesome... Rikuo: It’s the river! Tsurara: I see! The two of us, in the riv... hm? “River”? Rikuo: Hm, river! See, that river over there seems beautiful and safe. If you take a bath, you’ll cool down, right? Tsurara: Ah! I-It was that? Ah, bu-but... doing that in front of Waka... Rikuo: It’s okay! You don’t have to mind it if it’s me! Tsurara: Eh? Rikuo: I’ve always been with Tsurara since I was little. We’re like family, right? Tsurara: Ah... that is... but... Rikuo: Ah! Of course, I’ll be waiting over there. I’ll definitely avoid seeing you! Tsurara: “Definitely”? Eh... “definitely”, right? Rikuo: Hm? You think it’s no good? I thought it was a good idea... Tsurara: Ah, no... it’s nothing of the sort... *sigh* Rikuo: Hm? Tsurara: Ah, then, as suggested, please excuse me... Rikuo: Hm! I’ll be going over there, ne! *leaves* Tsurara: *sigh* Well, isn’t it okay? It sure seems refreshing, ne? Then, let’s do it... *strips* Eh... even though it’s a human-free jungle, being naked outside is... maybe there could be a boathouse somewhere... Eei!! Women shouldn’t falter! I’m going! *goes in* Ohooo~! It’s chilly and nice~! Ah~! So comfy~! Ah~! It’s really nice~! It would be good if Waka also had a taste of this... ah... *laughs* What am I thinking? [bushes moving] Tsurara: Huh? Waka? It... can’t be, ne? Was it just the wind? I thought Waka could be peeping for a second, but... hm? Wait... What if it was like that – I could have gone “kyah~” in fear at what I just saw, and Waka could have come?? [water moving] Tsurara: Nah, that... there would be no way Waka would come just like that... I’m glad Waka is hiding so that I can have privacy... *is poked* ah, besides, would he be angry if I lied? In fact, there’s nothing to be fear here... *is poked* Ah, if it was like that, what would I do? Should I go on? Should I just stop thinking about it? *whines while being poked* What’s with that, since just now?! Poking people out of the blue! I’m thinking about something important, so don’t meddle!! *uses frozen breath* Honestly, who keeps meddling in others’ thoughts? Ah! Rikuo: Tsurara! Is it okay for me to go back there? Tsurara: Waka?! Yes! *gets out of the river* I’ll dress up right now! *puts clothes on* Rikuo: How was it, Tsurara? Could you cool down a litt...? *gasps* T... This is a... Tsurara: *laughs nervously* Eh... that... looks like I froze it... Rikuo: B-but, this... this is a... crocodile?? Tsurara: Ah... ah, yes... Rikuo: Are you okay, Tsurara?! Sorry! I didn’t know there would be something like that in the river... Tsurara: No~! That’s not something Waka has to apologize for! I took care of it properly... so... Rikuo: Y-yeah...? Then, I’m glad... Tsurara: *thinking* Khh... what was I doing? That had been the perfect chance! While the crocodile was there, Waka could have come... even so... I took care of it myself... Rikuo: Ne... Tsurara: Ah! Yes?! What might it be?? I was definitely not thinking about feigning fear of that thing and going all “kyah, kyah” at al– Rikuo: Ah... it’s just that, if you were able to freeze that crocodile... wouldn’t it have been fine if you had made yourself more ice earlier...? Tsurara: Ah. ~ [wind sounds] Rikuo: Zen-kuuun! Kubinashiii! Tsurara: Aotabooou! Kurotabooou! Rikuo: *sigh* Where could everyone have gone to? Tsurara: While we were running, we all split up, ne? Rikuo: Zen-kun... is he okay...? Tsurara: *thinking* Y... you’re worried the most about Zen-sama after all? Rikuo: Tsurara, too. Are you? Tsurara: Eh? M-Me?? Rikuo: Hm. You’re without ice. Tsurara: Ah. If it’s about that, I am! The temperature has dropped, so I’m feeling more refreshed! Rikuo: Yeah? Then that’s fine... thank you, Tsurara. Tsurara: Hah? Rikuo: I’m really happy Tsurara is with me. If I was by myself in this jungle, I’d be definitely lonely. That’s why, thank you! Tsurara: Ah... Waka...! Rikuo: Alright! We have to hurry up and look for Zen-kun, ne! It’d be awful if he was on his own! Tsurara: *thinking* I... it’s Zen-sama after all, Waka~? [lion cry] Rikuo: Eh?! The cry of just now... could it be...?! Tsurara: N-no way... it is here?? There’s something like this here?! Rikuo: Tsurara, let’s go! Tsurara: Yes! Let’s hurry up and run! Rikuo: That’s not it! We have to go to the direction of that cry! Tsurara: Yes! To the direction of that cr... eeeeh?! Rikuo: What are you doing? Let’s go! Tsurara: Wai... please wait, Waka! Why go to where a lion is?! If there’s a lion there, what if it eats Waka?! That’d be horrible! Rikuo: Everyone may be there! Tsurara: Eh?! Rikuo: Because it’s like that, right? That cry earlier seemed to be an angry one! If it’s angry, there must be something that got it like that! What if that was... *breaks into run* Tsurara: Ah! Wakaaa! ~ [lion sounds] Ao: Oi, oi... hasn’t their number increased? Kuro: That’s because you were fooling around, right?! It’d be fine if we had just run! Ao: But... Zen: *coughing* Kubinashi: Please, hang on, Zen-sama! Zen: Kubinashi... everyone... leave me and go. If I’m just gonna slow you down... gh...! Just leave me... Ao: There’s no way we can do that, right?! You’re the head of one of Nura clan’s monovalent parties! Besides, you’re the person who exchanged the oath of brotherhood with Waka! If we abandoned you, we wouldn’t be able to face Waka! Zen: You too! You’re Rikuo’s precious subordinates! If something happened to you because of me... I... Rikuo would... Rikuo would... Kubinashi: Stop it, Zen-sama. In the end, we have to be together in this sort of situation. Kuro: Certainly... we have no choice. Ao: Alright... now that it’s decided... I’LL TAKE ALL OF THEM– Kuro: I keep telling you not to overdo it! There’s no way you can take all of them! What will you do if their number increases more?! Ao: Ah? Don’t be a scaredy-cat! Kuro: Don’t underestimate them! We certainly have strength! However, we’re deep inside a forest! It’s their turf! The home-court advantage is that there can be more of them hidden around there! Ao: That’s... ah, but...! Kuro: If we get carried away, not even the darkness of the night would be our ally! Maybe there are more of them beyond the forest... Ao: Aaah, mou, so annoying! We can come up with something someho– Kuro: Listen. We’ll act when the chance arises. When it arises. Ao: When is it ever gonna arise? [moving bushes/lion sounds] Ao: Somehow... the number is much bigger now... their allies are... Kuro: Don’t be impatient! We shouldn’t... do anything hasty... Ao: Then, what are we supposed to do that isn’t hasty? Kuro: Eh... that... hum... the opportunity... wait until the opportunity arises, right...? Ao: Keeeh! In the end, you’ve come up with nothing! If we just keep quiet like that, we’ll die! *groan* I’ll do it. *walks forward* Kuro: Ah! Oi! Ao! Rikuo: Wait! K/A: Oh?! Waka!! Rikuo: Everyone... Zen-kun... I’m glad you’re okay! Ao: You shouldn’t be glad! Coming to such a dangerous place... if something happens to Waka, what will we do?! Kuro: It’s as Aotabou says! Why did you put yourself in– Rikuo: It’s obvious it was to save everyone! Kuro: *gasps* Rikuo: I’m Nura clan’s young head! That’s why... I’ll protect everyone! *walks forward* Ao: Wai—WAKA!! Kuro: Where are you going?! Rikuo: I’ll talk to them! K/A: “Talk”?! Ao: Rhat means... ah... could it be...? Kuro: To those beasts?! Rikuo: “It’s okay. We won’t hurt or prey on you. That’s why I want you not to do anything to us.” – that’s what I want to request. Kuro: “Request”, you say...? T-They aren’t people or youkai – how will you do that?? That... Transforming Rikuo: Doesn’t matter. Kuro: *gasps* Ao: Waka... in his night form... Transforming Rikuo: Even if we can’t exchange words, there’s something about me and them that is immutable, right? Kuro: “Something immutable”...? Night Rikuo: Aah. This heat within our chests... our hearts are the same, right? Ao: “Heart”...? Night Rikuo: And I’m the one who stands above you, the master of youkai. The other one is the one that stands above this forest’s animals, the master of beasts. We’re at the same level, right? There’s no way we can’t establish communication. A/K: Waka... Zen: Rikuo... even so, don’t overdo it. Night Rikuo: Wait there quietly. I am Nura Rikuo – the man who will become Nura clan’s third head. ~ Tsurara: Eh~? Such a thing happened yesterday night~? Rikuo: Eh? *laughs nervously* Seems like it did... Tsurara: Eh? You don’t remember, Waka? Rikuo: No... hum... Zen: It’s obvious he does, but... he’s embarrassed about it. Rikuo: Ah, wai—stop that, Zen-kun! Zen: This is nothing to be embarrassed about! Nura clan’s young head put up a strong front! It’s a big deal. Rikuo: T-that... Tsurara: Khh... I wish I had seen Waka’s night form too... Zen: By the way, what had you been doing, Yuki Onna?! Tsurara: Ah!! Zen: Yooou... while Rikuo went to where we had been at, did you get stuck in a tree root again?! Aren’t you inefficient?! Tsurara: I’m not “inefficient”! I was trying to keep up with Waka! But while keeping up, I didn’t pay attention to the ground, and because of that, I ended up– Zen: Aah?! Tsurara: *gasps* I’m... I’m sorry!! Rikuo: Well, well... mou, don’t be angry, Zen-kun. Zen: No helping it... if Rikuo says it, I should forgive you... Rikuo: Thanks, Zen-kun. Zen: That’s nothing! *laughs* Tsurara: Mou... that’s why I say you two get along to well... Rikuo: But I’m glad! Just like I thought, they were all good people! Zen: Aah. Just not “people”, but “beasts”, right? But it sure is dangerous at night. We even had to stop the exploration... though the beasts’ leader was a really good guy. Rikuo: Could it be... it’s that? Zen: Huh? What “could be”? Rikuo: The animals of this forest... couldn’t it be... that they’re becoming youkai? Hora! Aren’t there a lot of animal-like youkai in our clan? Zen: That is... it could really be as you say. I kind of felt... youki in them. It could be some of them are really becoming like that. If they become youkai one day, what you said would be correct. Rikuo: *laughs* Will I be able to exchange Sakazuki with them one day? Zen: I’ll be able to tell when that time comes. When they’re prepared to be Nura clan members, that is. Ao: Zen-sama... not there yet? The place where the rare remedy is... Zen: Just a bit more. Thanks to those beasts who showed the easier way to it... we should be able to see it soon. Kuro: Then, we should hurry. We’ve come to this forest to find the cure to what’s affecting Waka... we must get there as soon as possible... Kubinashi: Yes, yes, but if you exaggerate, what happened yesterday could repeat itself. Kuro: Ah... t-that was...! That was because blockhead Aotabou took the front, and... I soon got worried about him– Ao: WHO IS THE BLOCKHEAD?! HUH?! WHAT I REMEMBER YOU SAYING WAS– [forest sounds] Everyone: *gasps* Zen: Oh! Looks like we’ve arrived. Rikuo: This is... Tsurara: Beautiful~~~! Zen: It’s just like Oyaji had said! The place... where a miraculous remedy is. Kuro: “Miraculous”...? Ao: Seeing this... the definition seems accurate... Kubinashi: Hm! Such a place existing... already feels like a miracle! Tsurara: We don’t have time to be looking around! Zen-sama, where should we look for the remedy? We’d give our lives to find it! Zen: I already found it. Tsurara: Eh?! So quickly?? Zen: Aah. It’s everywhere around here. Anyways, well... thanks, you guys. With this, Rikuo will be fine. Tsurara: *sigh* I’m glad... Rikuo: By the way, Zen-kun... Zen: Hm? What, Rikuo? Rikuo: Truth is... ever since I’ve come here, I’ve been curious... hum... erm... Zen: What? Don’t drag on and just say it. Rikuo: What sort of disease do I have?!? Zen: Haa? Ao: That’s right! That! We’re curious about it too! Kuro: Come to think of it... we were never told anything about this. Kubinashi: Well... we haven’t cared about it until now, though... Tsurara: Zen-sama, what sort of serious illness does Waka have after all?? Zen: Nah... it’s no disease. A/K/K/T: Haa?? Zen: I did say there was something affecting Rikuo’s future. Tsurara: Yes! That’s what we heard! A terrible disease was going to affect Waka’s future! Zen: Like I said, it’s no disease. There’s no mistaking it’s something regarding his future, though. Tsurara: Then, what is it?! Zen: His height! Tsurara: “Height”?? No wa—huh? “Height”? Ao: What kind of “se”? Is it about that human thing about baseball rules– (T/N: height = “se” in Japanese. There are words that are pronounced the same way and written differently, so it may cause confusion, lol) Kuro: Why would baseball be involved in this?! If it’s “se”... if it’s “se”, it must be that, right? Hum... Ao: What kind of “se” are you talking about?! Kubinashi: Hum... Zen-sama... when he says “se”, he’s referring to Waka’s growth. K/T/A: “Growth”?! Zen: Aah. It’s something that affects Rikuo’s future, right? Tsurara: No... that may be it, but, what do you mean?? Zen: Heck... you guys are slow to understand, huh? This remedy is meant to stimulate Rikuo’s growth! K/K/T/A: WAKA’S GROWTH?!! Zen: I’ve been worried about this long, long ago... even though he’s lived 12 years, Rikuo’s growth isextremely slow! Right, Rikuo? Rikuo: Eeeh?! Ah, no... I was... never worried about that. Zen: As sworn brother, I can’t just sit quietly about it. It’ll affect Rikuo’s future. If Nura clan’s supreme commander is a midget, he’ll lose all the respect, right? Tsurara: M... “midget”, you say?? Zen: And so, I, in order to make a better image for Rikuo when he becomes the third, I came to fetch the growth-stimulating remedy my Oyaji told me about! With that being said, Rikuo... Rikuo: Eh? Zen: Eat it. Rikuo: “Eat it”, you say? JUST LIKE THAT?! Ah, hold—wait a moment! *laughs nervously* Isn’t there anything to cloak the flavor? Zen: So noisy! It’s fine, EAT IT!! ORA! *forces it into Rikuo’s mouth* Tsurara: Ah! Waka!! What are you doing, Zen-sama?! Zen: Don’t worry! Well... it can be a bit bitter, but, you’d better keep it in your mouth! Rikuo: Hm?! It’s sweet... Z/T: Eh?! Rikuo: Ah, no... this herb... is really sweet, you see. Tsurara: Ah, that is... better than if it were bitter, ne? Rikuo: hm! Zen: This is bad... R/T: Eh? Zen: Keh...! I made you... eat the wrong herb. Rikuo: “Wrong herb”?! Tsurara: Wai—what is this “wrong herb”?! Zen: The remedy to reduce... the height... Everyone: EEEEH?!? Zen: Aaah! Oyaji also had told me to be careful! The height-reducing and the height-improving remedies were at the same place, so I had to examine them properly! The only difference in them is the flavor, so I had to taste it first... Tsurara: T-then please start tasting them! If it keeps up like that, Waka will become smaller and smaller, and look just as cute as he did when he was younger...! *remembers little Rikuo* Hah? That could be kinda nice... Zen: Oi, Yuki Onna! What do you think is okay about looking as cute as he did in the past?! My Rikuo, becoming the little thing he was in the past! Little–! Huh? C-C-Cute and... *remembers little Rikuo* I... It really could be nice. Rikuo: Zen-kun! Zen: Aaah! Wouldn’t just a bit should be fine?! Tsurara: Yes! If it’s just a bit~! Rikuo: No way it’s fine! Don’t you care? If I become smaller, I will... moooou! ZEN-KUN, YOU IDIOOOOOT!!!

KYOU KARA YONBAGARASU!? (FROM NOW ON, FOUR-FEATHERED CROWS!?) Tosakamaru: Hey, hey, you two! Have you ever thought about... Sasami: Haven’t. Tosakamaru: Wai—S... Sasami... Sasami: Tosakamaru, we’re in night patrol duty right now. Tosakamaru: Don’t be so strict, Sasami. Just flying around quietly is no fun, right? Kuroumaru: It’s not “just flying around”. To be able to tell if there are any evil youkai disturbing Ukiyoe town... we need to be prepared, right? Tosakamaru: Oi, Kuroumaru... heck, you take it too seriously! Sasami: You’re the one who takes it too lightly! Tosakamaru: Isn’t it okay? I just wanted to talk a bit. Anyways... haven’t you ever thought about it? Kuromaru/Sasami: “Thought about it”? Tosakamaru: Yeah... about what would happen if our Oyaji... wasn’t that Oyaji. Kuroumaru: Aay what? Sasami: *sweat-drops* What are you saying? Tosakamaru: Like I said... this is a “what if” kind of talk. “What if” kind of talk! Ora, our Oyaji is a Nura Clan fraction head Karasu Tengu, right? Then, we are called the “Three-Feathered Crows”... Sasami: What are you bringing up only now? What about it? Tosakamaru: I’ve been wondering lately... if Oyaji wasn’t Karasu Tengu... we could relax more~! Sasami: *hits Tosakamaru* Tosakamaru: Agh! It... hurts... what are you doing, Sasami? Sasami: That was because you were saying nonsense. Tosakamaru: But, it’s true... we are always doing patrols under Oyaji’s orders. If our Oyaji was different, couldn’t it be we’d have a different task? Sasami: Until when will you drag on this stupid topic? Tosakamaru: For example, try picturing it – if our Oyaji was... the Supreme Commander. Kuroumaru/Sasami: Eh?! Tosakamaru: That way, the three of us... would be “Waka” and “Ojou-sama” by now, right? How’s that, “Sasami-ojou-sama”? Sasami: *dreamy* “Sasami-ojou-sama”...? *back to normal* What are you saying?! I could never be an “Ojou-sama”– Tosakamaru: Then, we don’t need to go as far as him being Supreme Commander. Something else... hm... for example, how about Gyuuki-sama? Sasami: “Gyuuki-sama”, you say? Tosakamaru: He’s cool... and has composure. He’s completely different from our midget Oyaji. Sasami: You... calling Oyaji-dono “midget”! Tosakamaru: I also feel that, if our Oyaji was Gyuuki-sama, we’d be more into the clan’s issues... Kuroumaru: In exchange, just like that Oyaji-dono, we’d have to look severe, right? Tosakamaru: *sweat-drops* Ah... th-that... Kuroumaru: Now, the chattering ends here. Let’s continue the patrol. Sasami: Aah. Tosakamaru: Ei... ~ Trio: *lands* Kuroumaru: Back! We’ve returned. Kejourou: Ara, Three-Feathered Crows~! Thanks for your work~! Tosakamaru: Ah, I’m tired... need to go wash... ah, no... before that should come the meal, right? Sasami: In your case, whether comes first doesn’t matter. You come out of the bath five seconds after you enter, anyways. Kejourou: *giggle* That’s the “crows’ quick baths” thingy? Kuroumaru: Kejourou. Kejourou: Hm? Kuroumaru: Don’t you know where Oyaji-dono might be? We can’t afford not to give the patrol reports. Kejourou: Ara? Wasn’t he with you? Kuroumaru: Ah? Tosakamaru: Oi, oi, what are you saying, Kejourou? There’s no way Oyaji would join our patrol. Kejourou: But... that’s strange. Sasami: What is it? Did something happen to Oyaji-dono? Kejourou: *laughs nervously* I think I’m mistaken... Kuroumaru: We only become more curious when you put it like that. Please say it, Kejourou. Kejourou: H-hm... I feel I can be really mistaken, y’know? Earlier... about two hours before, Karasu Tengu was here. It seemed he was going out, so I asked “Where are you going~?”, and he said “I’ll be going to patrol with my children”. Trio: Eh? Kuroumaru: I hadn’t heard anything... about that. Sasami: Me neither. Tosakamaru: By the way, we’ve been just the three of us until just now. Why didn’t Oyaji say anything? Kejourou: *laughs nervously* That’s it, ne~? Looks like I was mistaken after all... forget it, you three~! Bye! *leaves* Tosakamaru: Oi, oi, what’s the meaning of this...? Why did Oyaji lie? Sasami: Kejourou said she was mistaken, right? Tosakamaru: But... can someone be mistaken about something like that? Sasami: That is... Tosakamaru: If what Kejourou said turns out to be true, Oyaji would turn out to be lying. If Oyaji had to go that far to hide where he was going... Sasami: Cut it out, Tosakamaru! If you continue with this talk any further– Karasu Tengu: *comes flying* What are you doing? Kuroumaru: Oyaji-dono! Sasami/Tosakamaru: *gasp* Karasu Tengu: Honestly... I could clearly hear your voices from the sky! Can’t you get along better, as three siblings? If you keep displaying disgraceful behavior in public, you’ll be throwing away Nura Clan’s reputatio... hm? W-What is it, you guys? Why are you staring at my face like that...? Tosakamaru: *backs up* Ah! No... it’s nothing. Right? Sasami: Ah... yes. We don’t have anythin– Kuroumaru: *steps forward* Oyaji-dono, I have something to ask. S/T: KUROUMARU! Karasu Tengu: What is it, Kuroumaru? I’m ready to hear it. Kuroumaru: Oyaji-dono... where were you until now? Karasu Tengu: W-what?!? Sasami: Kuroumaru... so straight-forwardly... Tosakamaru: He’s really into it, that guy... Kuroumaru: Please tell us, Oyaji-dono. Karasu Tengu: *sweating nervously* T... that is... Kuroumaru: What’s wrong? Is there any reason why you’re not saying it? Karasu Tengu: What are you implying?! Such a thing... pressing a question onto me... i- isn’t it obvious I was at home all this time?! Kuroumaru: “At home”? You came back flying just now. Karasu Tengu: Wh...?! T... That is... I... I was obviously just keeping an eye in the mansion’s surroundings! We never know when an enemy can show up, so I thought I’d do my part and... Kuroumaru: “I’ll be going to patrol with my children” – you had said that to Kejourou, ne? Karasu Tengu: ugh?! T... that is... that is... Kuroumaru: Oyaji-dono. Karasu Tengu: Ch... That is... what we call a figure of speech! While you were doing patrol around the city, I was also doing patrol around the mansion! Is there anything wrong with that?! Tosakamaru: No... it’s really impossible that this– Karasu Tengu: Quiet!! Such an insignificant talk! I’m going! *leaves* Sasami: Ah! *runs* Oyaji-dono! Kuroumaru: Wait, Sasami. It’d be useless to ask any more now. Sasami: But...! Kuroumaru: Oyaji-dono is also an adult. It’s normal there would be one or two things he’d hide from us, right? I think we inquired about unnecessary things a bit too much. Sasami: That is... true. Tosakamaru: What’s that...? Then, it ends here? I have a bad feeling... Kuroumaru: Even though there may be things he may not want to share, it’s that Oyaji-dono. There’s no way he’d ever betray the clan, right? Sasami: Aah. It’s as Kuroumaru says. Tosakamaru: But, y’know... I’m interested after all... *sigh* Random narrator: A few days after that... Karasu Tengu: *on phone* Is that so? You were doing your best today too? Oh~! Very good, very good! Trying hard to do your best like this is very important! What? T... That is... that house, right? That’s it, that’s it, the house close to that one, for sure... Ah. If you continue to do your best, I’ll keep responding to it– Kejourou: Karasu Tengu? Karasu Tengu: Ke... Kejourou?! *back to phone* W... Well, later! *hangs up* Kejourou: Who were you calling at the mansion’s backdoor? Karasu Tengu: W... whoever it is doesn’t concern you. Besides, you too. Why are you here? Kejourou: Because I heard someone’s voice, so I was curious about what you were doing. Karasu Tengu: I-if you’re free to spy on me, can’t you use that time to work for the clan’s sake?! Honestly! Kejourou: Aah... he left... He’s been hiding something after all, ne~? But... that call... I think it can’t be, but... what if... ~ Trio: WHAT?!? Kuroumaru: O... Oyaji-dono has an... Tosakamaru/Sasami: ...illegitimate child?! Kejourou: Wai—your voices are too loud! Sasami: What are you saying, Kejourou?! That Oyaji-dono having an... ille... illegi... illegitimate... su... such a baseless accusation...! Tosakamaru: I’m on Sasami’s side. No matter what, that can’t be... Kejourou: But, I heard it clearly! Karasu Tengu making a call to his illegitimate child! Sasami: How can you be so sure? It could be just an acquaintance! Kejourou: But... would he be talking in secret with just an acquaintance? Sasami: T... that is... Tosakamaru: It wouldn’t be an illegitimate child just because of that! There are plenty of options of who else it could have been, right? Ora... for example, a lover? Sasami: Yes, a lov... There’s no way it’d be that either! It’s that Oyaji-dono! Tosakamaru: Yeah... it’s that Oyaji, alright... but trying to find information about possible enemies is also not an option... Sasami: Obviously. Kejourou: But, you know~! I don’t know where or how he could have found a love affair, but... what if that severe Karasu Tengu could have– Sasami: No! That’s not it! Kuroumaru, you say something too! Kuroumaru: Hm... Tosakamaru: Oi. What have you been thinking so much about, Kuroumaru? Kuroumaru: Nah... to tell the truth, hum... looking closely, that does ring a bell. Sasami/Tosakamaru: eh!? Kejourou: *giggles* You see, ne~? As I said! Sasami: What happened, Kuroumaru?! Kuroumaru: It’s nothing much... it’s nothing... Tosakamaru: It’s fine, just try saying it! Kuroumaru: A-aah... to tell the truth, lately, Oyaji-dono had seemed to be looking for something. I went to see what he was seeking, and it turned out to be an old toy Waka used to play with in his childhood. Sasami/Tosakamaru: “Toy”?! Kuroumaru: When I asked what he had found, he said “it doesn’t concern you”. Sasami: But, we can’t conclude anything just from that! Tosakamaru: Yeah... just that... Kuroumaru: He also had child clothes I had never seen... Sasami/Tosakamaru: Wah?! Kuroumaru: ...Together with some sweets. Sasami/Tosakamru: Wh-?! Kuroumaru: I had also heard him sleep-talking about playing with a cute someone... Sasami: O... okay already! Tosakamaru: Ugh... but... seriously? T-That Oyaji is... Sasami: I really can’t believe it... such thing... so filthy...! Tosakamaru: What is “filthy”? Oyaji is also a man, so– Sasami: *hits him* Tosakamaru: Argh! *falls* Kuroumaru: Calm down, Sasami! I understand. I shall interrogate Oyaji-dono directly about... what he may be hiding! Sasami/Tosakamru: Kuroumaru...?! ~ [phone rings] Karasu Tengu: *picks up* Hello? Ah~! It’s me! Hey... I told you not to call me so often... what? You wanted to hear my voice? Is that so? Is that so? If you say it so cutely like that, even I can’t turn you down... *sigh* Kuroumaru and the others, too, were much cuter when they were children, but now they’ve become so daring... Kuroumaru: Oyaji-dono. Karasu Tengu: D’uooooh?! Ku-Kuroumaru! *hangs up* I-If you’re there, you should say it... Kuroumaru: Who were you calling? Karasu Tengu: What?! W-Why are you asking something so unimportant? Kuroumaru: Who were you calling? Karasu Tengu: T... that is... Kuroumaru: Who. Were. You calling? Karasu Tengu: Nnngh... YOU’RE NOISY! W-Whoever I call doesn’t have to do with you! Kuroumaru: You’re not saying it? Karasu Tengu: Wh...?! I... don’t have any obligation of sayin... Kuroumaru: You’re not saying it, Oyaji-dono? Karasu Tengu: You’re rude! I’m your father! Honestly... you’ve become children who are always so unreasonable, in comparison with... Kuroumaru: “In comparison with...”? Karasu Tengu: Gh...?! N-Nothing! I’m going! *leaves* Kuroumaru: Oyaji-dono, are you running away?! Kejourou: Please wait, Kuroumaru! Kuroumaru: Kejourou...! Why are you stopping me? Kejourou: I had to stop you! You’ve become this fired up, ne. Kuroumaru: That is... right. He wouldn’t answer... even if I asked any further. All I did was to harden the mood of Oyaji-dono who had just come back, huh? Sasami/Tosakamru: Kuroumaru...! Kuroumaru: Sasami, Tosakamaru... Sasami: Unbelievable...! Oyaji-dono... really... Tosakamaru: So it’s really... that? He has an... illegitimate child... Sasami: Tosakamaru! Tosakamaru: Ah, don’t be angry at me, Sasami! Kuroumaru: You two, hang in there! All we can do is... accept the reality. Sasami/Tosakamru: Ah...? Kuroumaru: We have to accept... this reality as it is. Tosakamaru: “Reality... Sasami: ...as it is”? Kuroumaru: Aah. As it is. ~Kuroumaru’s vision~ Karasu Tengu: *comes flying* I sure made you wait, huh? Things have become this way... I think I don’t really have any excuses. However... you’ll understand one day. That’s why, today, I’ve decided to make the introductions. This here... is your younger brother. Supposed younger brother: Pleased to meet you, Onii-sama, Onee-sama! Tosakamaru: “Onii-sama”?? Sasami: “Onee-sama”?! Karasu Tengu: It’s natural you’d be shocked, but... as older brothers, as older sister, please, look after this child. That’s it! Tosakamaru: Whoa, oi, oi... Sasami: No... no way... such thing, so suddenly...! Kuroumaru: Understood. Sasami/Tosakamru: Kuroumaru?! Kuroumaru: I won’t ask about anything. No matter what the situation is, this child hasn’t done anything wrong. Karasu Tengu: Hoo~! Kuroumaru~! Kuroumaru: As older brother, I shall bond with you, my... younger brother. Supposed younger brother: Thank you very much, Kuroumaru-onii-sama! Thank you very much! ~end of Kuroumaru’s vision~ Kuroumaru: It... would be something like that, right? Sasami: But...! Kuroumaru: Anyways, our hearts must be ready. When the time comes, let’s try not to... Tosakamaru: Oi! Wait a bit. Kuroumaru: What, Tosakamaru? Do you feel you can’t do it? Aside from that, regarding our younger brothe– Tosakamaru: You say it’s a younger brother, but... you can’t be sure, ne? Kuroumaru: what? Tosakamaru: For example... there’s also the possibility of it being like this, right? ~Tosakamaru’s vision~ Karasu Tengu: *comes flying* I sure made you wait, huh? This here... is your younger sister. Supposed younger sister: P... pleased to meet you, Onii-sama, Onee-sama! Tosakamaru: O... “Onii-sama”, you say? Isn’t that awkward? Karasu Tengu: It’s natural you’d be shocked, but... as older brothers, as older sister, please, look after this child. That’s it! Tosakamaru: Oi, oi... so suddenly...! Supposed younger sister: I’m sorry, Tosakamaru-onii-sama... Tosakamaru: Eh? Supposed younger sister: It’s true, ne? I’m a bother, ne? But, I... wanted to meet Onii-sama no matter what! And... Tosakamaru:  You... Supposed younger sister: I’m sorry. I won’t... call you “Onii-sama” anymore. Tosakamaru: Aah. That’s right. Do that. Supposed younger sister: *gasps* Tosakamaru: Don’t call me “Onii-sama”. Supposed younger sister: Ah... yes... Tosakamaru: You should use... “Onii-chan”... right? Supposed younger sister: Eh? Tosakamaru: Stop with that “Onii-sama” thing! I don’t like these formalities. Hora. Try saying it.

Supposed younger sister: Uh... Onii... Onii-chan. Tosakamaru-onii-chan! Tosakamaru: *laughs* That’s it. Supposed younger sister: Onii-chan... I love you! ~end of Tosakamaru’s vision~ Tosakamaru: That kind of feeling! Sasami: It’s impossible for this kind of thing to happen. Tosakamaru: Why? There’s a possibility of it being a younger sister– Sasami: What I meant that is impossible is... you being so incredibly nice. What’s with this “Onii-chan, I love you”? Tosakamaru: I’ve been long thinking it’d be okay like that! A cute sister, I mean. Sasami: What’s with that? I short, it means I’m not cute. Kuroumaru: Calm down, Sasami. Tosakamaru, too, don’t provoke Sasami. Tosakamaru: Ah. Ei, ei. Sasami: Honestly... why don’t you think about it more realistically?! If Oyaji-dono really had an ille... illegitimate child, what on Earth would this become?? Tosakamaru: That’s why we’re just making up mental images! Besides, what about you? Sasami: Me? Tosakamaru: Aah. When this time comes... will you be okay? Sasami: hmph. Of course I’ll be okay! I... If it was me... ~Sasami’s vision~ Karasu Tengu: *comes flying* I sure made you wait, huh? This here... is your younger brother. Supposed younger brother: Pleased to meet you, Onii-sama, Onee-sama! Sasami: *gasps* “Onee-sama”? Karasu Tengu: It’s natural you’d be shocked, but... as older brothers, as older sister, please, look after this child. That’s it! Sasami: No way... it’ll be trouble! Someone that knows nothing as younger brother... Supposed younger brother: I know a lot! Sasami: Eh? Supposed younger brother: Sasami-onee-sama, you’re the combination of Chichi-ue-sama’s (honorable father’s) blood, who is always trying to stay by his side and be supportive! You’re a pretty fine Ane-ue-sama! (honorable older sister)! Sasami: W... what are you... saying? Supposed younger brother: You also manage to work successfully, despite the lack of help of the Ani-ue-sama’s (honorable older brothers’)! Nura Clan’s members are always relying on you, ne? Sasami: “Relying on me”...? That... Supposed younger brother: And... erm... after learning about that, I took a conclusion. Sasami: “A conclusion”? Supposed younger brother: Yes! Sasami: What is it? What is your conclusion? It’s okay to hurry up and try saying it. Supposed younger brother: Hu-hum... y-you’re beautiful, Sasami-onee-sama! Sasami: Eh?? Supposed younger brother: I-I’m sorry! But... you’re really beautiful. That’s why... I... S... Sorry! Sasami: No... that’s nothing to apologize for... Supposed younger brother: Sasami-onee-sama...! You’re kind, ne? Sasami: ah... is that so...? Supposed younger brother: I’m... really happy! I was able to have... a pretty and kind Onee-sama! Sasami: I’m also happy... that I was able to meet... a cute younger brother like you. ~end of Sasami’s vision~ Tosakamaru: Aren’t you happy too?! Sasami: No... that’s why this is a talk of possibilities! Just thinking about the possibilities– Kuroumaru: *sweat-drops* Sasami... you have that kind of preference...? Sasami: “Pref”...?! What’s... with that... even Kuroumaru...?! Tosakamaru: Oi, oi, stop that! Don’t get worked up just because your younger brother version is a fail– Sasami: *hits him* Tosakamaru: Agh!! It hurts... kh... ah, don’t use your hands! Your hands are...! Sasami: It’s because you were spouting unpleasant things. YOU’RE AT FAULT FOR EVERYTHING. Tosakamaru: Ngh, what’s with that? The one at fault isn’t me! Isn’t the one at fault the illegitimate child-making Oyaji?! Sasami: That is... that is... Kuroumaru: *sigh* No matter how much we discuss about it, we won’t be able to figure anything out, after all... if it keeps up like this... there may be need for a personal secret investigation. Sasami/Tosakamaru: “Secret investigation”?! Kuroumaru: Aah. About the truth. ~ Karasu Tengu: *slowly opens door* Good... no one is looking, right? Haa! *flies* [bushes moving] Kuroumaru: He left, huh? Sasami: Aah. He left. Tosakamaru: He made an awesome escape... will he be going to a see her, after all? Our younger sister... Sasami: It’s a younger brother. Kuroumaru: We can’t be sure, right? Anyways, to be able to find out the truth, we have to secretly follow Oyaji-dono. You two... are prepared, right? Tosakamaru: Aah, we are. No matter what comes up, we won’t get startled. No matter what cute younger sister comes up~ Sasami: I’m saying it’s a younger brother. Kuroumaru: And I’m saying we can’t be sure! Anyways, let’s go! *flies* Sasami/Tosakamaru: Aah! *follow* ~ Tosakamaru: Where is he going, that Oyaji? Sasami: Just now, there was certainly a small mountain over there... Kuroumaru: Does that mean the one waiting for Oyaji-dono is there? Tosakamaru: Poor thing... an illegitimate child, and even having to live alone in a mountain, my younger sister...! Sasami: I’s my younger brother. Kuroumaru: “Ours”, right? Isn’t it?! Tosakamaru: Ah! Sasami: What is it, Tosakamaru? Tosakamaru: Oyaji is coming this way! Sasami: Whaaat~?! Kuroumaru: Don’t waver, you two! It seems he hasn’t noticed us. Let’s hide behind that building. Tosakamaru/Sasami: Aah! Trio: *hiding* Tosakamaru: *whispers* Oi! Oyaji is right there! Sasami: *whispers* Ahh! Be quiet! Karasu Tengu: Weird... I was certain I felt someone around here, but... Tosakamaru: *whispers* This is bad... we’ll be found out! Karasu Tengu: Hm... there’s no way a person would be following me from this height... could it be...?! Trio: Kh...! Karasu Tengu: A bird...? Trio: ?! Karasu Tengu: I see! It’s a bird! It’s surely a sparrow or something, right? Sasami: Eh? “Sparrow”? Tosakamaru: Kuroumaru, sparrow! Do a sparrow cry! Kuroumaru: U... understood! *does a sparrow sound* Karasu Tengu: Oh~! It was really a sparro... no. But wait a minute... a sparrow flying at night is strange... Tosakamaru: *whispers* Oi, what were you doing, Kuroumaru?! Kuroumaru: *whispers* what Tosakamaru said! Karasu Tengu: Oh! I know! It’s not a sparrow... but a chicken? Tosakamaru: *whispers* “Chicken”?? Kuroumaru: *whispers* Do it, Tosakamaru. Tosakamaru: *whispers* Me?! Sasami: *whispers* Tosakamaru! Tosakamaru: *whispers* I get it! *does a chicken sound* Karasu Tengu: No, no... there’s no way it’d be a chicken. Its time is also at morning. Besides, it can’t fly. Sasami: *whispers* What were you doing, Tosakamaru?! Tosakamaru: *whispers* No...! You told me to... Karasu Tengu: Oh~, I see~! This time, there’s no mistaking it! The one I saw earlier was... that black form in the darkness... black... agile... a penguin, right?! Trio: *whispers* “Penguin”?! Sasami: *whispers* a penguin? Such a thing... Tosakamaru/Kuroumaru: *whispers* Sasami. Sasami: *whispers* Ah... me? Kuroumaru: *whispers* We’ll be even. Tosakamaru: *whispers* Ora! Do it! Sasami: *whispers* Hm... understood. *does a penguin sound* Tosakamaru: *whispers* W-w-wait a mome... wait a moment! Penguins do “pen pen”?? Sasami: *whispers* Then, what do they do? Tosakamaru: *whispers* Th... that is... er... “pe”? Sasami: *whispers* “Pe”? Tosakamaru: *whispers*P-p... ah, no, wrong! That’s not it... hum... Kuroumaru, do it! Kuroumaru: *whispers* Penguins don’t cry. Sasami: *whispers* No, they do! Tosakamaru: *whispers* For sure, ne! It’s fine, just try crying! Hora! Kuroumaru: *whispers* I’m saying penguins don’t cry! Sasami: Uooah?! Tosakamaru: Wh... what is it, Sasami?! Kuroumaru: You know how penguins cry? Sasami: That’s not it! That was not it... Oyaji-dono is gone! Tosakamaru: Ah?!/Kuroumaru: Ah. Sasami: *sighs* We were fooled... by Oyaji-dono... khh... [wolf sounds] ~ Trio: *flying* T/S: *Sigh* Tosakamaru: Ah, mou, let’s go home. It’s gonna be impossible like that... Sasami: Yeah. Oyaji-dono had left his trace... probably planning to fool us from the beginning. Kuroumaru: Not yet. Sasami/Tosakamaru: Kuroumaru...?! Kuroumaru: if it’s impossible, I won’t ask you to follow. However, I really want to keep on investigating. I want to make sure Oyaji-dono isn’t betraying us! Tosakamaru/Sasami: Ah... Kuroumaru: Oyaji-dono has come to this mountain... that’s why, there’s the possibility that here there’s some clue of– [dog sounds] Sasami: What?! Tosakamaru: Wild dogs, right? Probably live on this mountain... Sasami: That is right, but... something is odd... Tosakamaru: “Odd”? Uh? No good! Isn’t that... a human kid?! Sasami: He’s being attacked by the wild dogs, right?! Kuroumaru: Let’s help him, Sasami, Tosakamaru!! Sasami/Tosakamaru: Aah! Karasu Tengu: Won’t you stop, you dogs?! Trio: *halts* Ah?! Kuroumaru: That... voice is... Tosakamaru: Over there!! Sasami: Oyaji-dono!! Karasu Tengu: Aaah!!! Do you want any more?! [dogs whine and leave] Karasu Tengu: Heh... it was becoming dangerous... Kuroumaru: Oyaji-dono!!! Trio: *lands* Karasu Tengu: Y... you guys... kh! You were still following me? Kuroumaru: What’s the meaning of this, Oyaji-dono? Sasami: That’s right! Please explain. Karasu Tengu: N... no good! Leave immediately, you guys! Tosakamaru: W... what’s with that? Karasu Tengu: Quiet! Just come! *leaves* Trio: Oyaji/Oyaji-dono!? *follows* ~ Kejourou: EEEEH?! Then it wasn’t an illegitimate child! Tosakamaru: Aah. Kuroumaru: The one who Oyaji-dono kept calling was just a normal human child. Moreover, the latter didn’t know Oyaji-dono was a youkai. Kejourou: But... where did he know him from? Kuroumaru: The child sent an e-mail to his site. As they kept exchanging e-mails, they became mail pals, and then it became like that. Kejourou: And the identity remains secret... somehow, he seems like a Daddy-Long-Legs. Kuroumaru: Oyaji-dono said that... he had a fragile body, he couldn’t play outside. And that, when he spoke to Oyaji-dono, he had lots of fun no matter what. Kejourou: Heh~? Are? But, he was being attacked by those dogs at the mountain, right, that child? Tosakamaru: That... seems to have been Oyaji’s fault. Kejourou: Karasu Tengu’s? Tosakamaru: Hm. He was always telling him to do his best not to lose to his sickness, and he ended up taking it too seriously. It seems he was secretly trying to exercise in the mountains in the middle of the night without telling his parents. Kejourou: Was that so? Sasami: It seems Oyaji-dono couldn’t stop that child... and so, he was left with no choice but to go out to check on and protect him himself. Kejourou: *laughs* So that’s why he kept leaving? Kuroumaru: In the end, we were completely mistaken about the illegitimate child thing. Sasami: But, to go that far just to keep that child a secret from us... Tosakamaru: Sure stinks, huh~? And he even made himself secret from the child. Sasami: But... doesn’t it smell fishy? Kuroumaru: Sasami... Tosakamaru: Well, well, isn’t it fine? We already found out Oyaji has no illegitimate child! No... actually, there might be some possibility after all... Sasami: Tosakamaru... Tosakamaru: Okay, okay. There isn’t, there isn’t! That Oyaji couldn’t– Karasu Tengu: “Couldn’t” what? Tosakamaru: Aagh?! Wah! Sasami: Uoh?! Oyaji-dono! Kuroumaru: You had been here? Karasu Tengu: I came in just now. By the way, you guys... do you have some time? Trio: Eh? Karasu Tengu: No... about that... that child will become lonely again. So, you guys, hum... wouldn’t you... talk to that child? Trio: Eh?? Karasu Tengu: That child yearns for friends. That’s why, you guys could also... Sasami: Hah... if Oyaji-dono is saying, then... Tosakamaru: I guess... seeing him just once wouldn’t hurt... Karasu Tengu: Idiot!! If he finds out we’re scary youkai, that child’s poor body will– Kejourou: Isn’t it fine~? Like this, they could become real siblings! Trio: Haaah?! Karasu Tengu: Oh... that’s right, huh~? That would be fine too– Kuroumaru: No, no, it wouldn’t be fine! Sasami: Please get real, Oyaji-dono! Trio: Oyaji/Oyaji-dono! Karasu Tengu: Eeeei, quiet!! Can’t you listen to your father’s requests even when it is about a child?! You are, from now on... MY FOUR-FEATHERED CROWS~!!!
