(( This thread mainly relates to volume 3 when Yamanami was killed, and now Heisuke is having very dark thoughts...))
Shinsengumi HQ
A young man was sitting on the stairs to his domain's enterence, not saying a word. He was resting his elbows on his knees, looking lifelessly to the ground. His breathing was uneven, and every now and then he could feel his hands tremble.
Heisuke:....

(I'm RPG-ing Shinpachi for a while)
A tall man and a shorter man were walking. Like Heisuke, they were in a sombre mood. The shorter man spotted Heisuke. He stopped and walked over. He bent down and asked.
"Heisuke, is it really alright if you don't attend his funeral?"

The man still didn't say anything. His eyes became more creasent as he slowly rubbed the back of his neck with one hand. His breathing became even more uneven as tears swelled up in his eyes. He looked down, a shadow covering his eyes. After a moment, he started to speak.
Heisuke: He's...he's really gone isn't he...Heh.
Still looking down, the tears fell, but he was smiling, but only weakly.
Heisuke: I...really can't beleive that...

Shinpachi sighed.
"He's gone...r-really gone... Seppuku..."
He had to stop as his voice caught. He struggled to hold back his own tears.
"He b-bravely commited... seppuku. You should go... say goodbye... to him..."

(I'll play as Ito)
Ito (Talking to others in another room): Kondo did not tell me of this incident!!! As an executive I should have been notified. But there was something strange about the event. Kondo and Hijikata were hiding something. I must find out!
Ito left his room and went outside where he had found the now solem trio.
Ito: Oh. Hello.

Heisuke, still looking down, answered his friend's question quietly.
Heisuke: Seppuku...*Sniffles* I wonder...If it was painful...*Sniffles again* Just...gimmie a minute...I'll be there soon...
Just as he finished saying those words, he slowly looked up to hearing Ito's voice, he just narrowed his eyes in sadness, and stood still looking at the man.
Heisuke: Hello? Thats all you can say, after what happened?!
His voice stayed at a normal stone, but slightly angered. He didn't really mean to get mad at the man, he just couldn't keep it locked up anymore. His tears still came down as he clenched his fist, walking past his two friends,..to the funeral, with a shadow covering his eyes.

Sano and Shinpachi looked at each other, then glared at Ito. They ran after Heisuke.
"Hey wait up!"

Still walking, his fists clenched, trying to hold back his constent tears, but then, he stopped, letting his two friends catch up, his eyes went wide, still sobbing, as he stayed there motionless. A voice played over and over in the young man's head. A dark voice.
Voice: He's dead...
He's dead...
He's dead...
HE'S DEAD...
Heisuke shut his eyes tight, covering his ears, trying to make the voice stop.
Heisuke: LEAVE ME ALONE! SHUT UP!!!
Yelled the man, to the voice. Though, it sounded like he was acting crazy...

"Hei-kun!"
Shinpachi shook him by the shoulder.
"We'll go together, okay?" (sniffles)

Heisuke gasped, and stopped freaking out, as he painfully looked down at his friendHis tears pathetically came down, as he lowered his arms, looking down.
Heisuke: .........Thanks...Shinpachi...
He too, sniffled, rubbing his pinkish eyes. .

Embarassed, Shinpachi wipes his own nose. Turning to Sano...
"Sano, wipe your nose, it's dirty..."
The large man blows his nose into his sleeve.

The man dazed out for a few seconds, then he turned to face his two friends, his eyes still creasent.
Heisuke: Hey guys...what do you think went wrong...? I mean...with Yamanami...?

Shinpachi thought for a while.
Shinpachi: H-He wanted to leave... I think... (looks away) Why else will Kondo-san send Okita to look for him... Maybe... oh, I dunno... (looks at the ground) It's too sudden...

Heisuke's breath became uneasy again, as he stared into space for alittle bit. His tears still came, but he didn't look so pained. He stayed quiet for a long time, before speaking again.
Heisuke: ...We should get going.
Was all the ,=man said before starting to walk off again, looking so broken and lifeless.

Sano: Aw, it's really too sudden. I mean... he was still fine when he got back... then by afternoon... like Itou said... OW!
Shinpachi kicked him in the shin.
Shin: Sano, what nonsense are you suggesting? (sniffles) Kondo-san said he commited seppuku, 'k?
Itou's been hinting at some things the 2nd Capt would rather be lies.
