Tetsu was looking down, but then he looked up at his V-Commander quickly, not really looking like his old self, he just took a deep breath, unoticed, and gripped the fan in his hands alittle harder.
" Mr. Hijikata, I'm fine...I have no idea what your talking about...It shouldn't matter to you anyway, Im just your page."
Tetsu didn't mean those things offensivly, its just that, thats is what Tetsu was really thinking. Although, he was not really feelin' to cheery...He continued to fan Hijikata like he requested, still looking to the side...

He noticed the change in mood on this li'boy...But it was somewhat unrespectful for him to answered on that way. He took a deep breath an' spoke again...
Hijikata: That is not the proper way for u to answer me u....V-Comander....I advice u next time u do not want to speak about personal matter that u do it properly....*paused an' took a sip of his tea*...damn! Tetsu atleast try ur best for some decent tea...Goodness....
He tried to light up the mood...he wanted the boy to get out of deep thought. At his age is not good.
Hijikata:...I've been thinkin'...an' I've been told that u want ur own sword...but, u do think u can carry the heavy burden or the sword. There's a lot of responsibilies when it comes to handlin' a sword...sheddin' blood...killin'.....sheddin' ur own tears...Do u think u can handle that?
He waited for the boy to reply...not lookin' at the boy, Tetsu's fannin' stopped.
Hijikata: I promised a certain someone that I would take care of the young one....but I don't know if I'm doin' such a good job at it...the boy drives me to the line of insanity at times....

Tetsu stayed quiet for alittle longer, Until he spoke, his bangs covering his eyes. " Vice Commander... I've already shed all my tears...and I know that I will have to take lives...But I'm not just that some worthless retch who thinks of life in only his view," Began Tetsu as he looked back up at Hijikata, his eyes looking oddly empty.
" Sir, I don't care if you give me a sword or not...But I'm never taking this new hatred out of my soul. I'm not a puppy anymore. "
Tetsu just smiled, but it was the kind that looked compediable, and the kind that also made you want to shiver...The boy looked down again, still smirking as bagan to fan again.

Hijikata just stared up onto the sky. The sky was beautiful this mornin' but as the day progressed the sky was becomin' cloudy...rain was on its way.
Hijikata: Tetsu...tell me, u can tell me. I'm not like the 3 comedians who'll laugh at u...just trust me...
He waved to the boy to stop the fannin' an motion him to sit next to him.
Hijikata: Speak...

Tetsu looked down at Hijikata, then just looked to the side again, placing the fan on the floor lightly as he took a seat... He was still looking down, his smile completely faded.
" Well,...it all depends on what you exactly want to know..."

Time stopped between the two men. Noone spoked but just looked at the sprinkles of water that were fallin' from the sky. The heaven's started to cry, wettin' anyone or anything. Pourin' himself to mother earth.
Hijikata poured some tea unto anothe spair cup, in case puppy boy would drop the first one. He handed the cup to Tetsu.
Hijikata: Here.....
That's all he said. He saw Okita's Pig passed by n a hurry, probably savin' himself from the rain or either lookin' around for his cheerful master.
Time pass on--
Hijikata sigh an' continued to smoke. He stared towards the boy than to the sky.
Hijikata: Whatever u want me to hear...I'm not askin' for u spill ur guts to me....whatever u feel good to say or whatever is botherin' u.
Trainin' Hall--
Shinpachi: Hey Okita! Want to spar with me....Heisuke an' Sano are just loungin' around an' don't want to do nothin' so what do u say....1st unit captain.
From a far the other two heard them.
Sano: I bet....wait we can't bet....damn! Heisuke: hahahaha...that's true, winner takes on the other. How 'bout that? Sano: U know Okita is goin' to win.... Heisuke: U may never know my friend... Sano: The chickmunk is goin' to loose!
Shin: I Heard that! So Okita what do u say? to spar or not to spar?

The red-head still looked down, the cup in his hands, but then he just set it aside on the floor slowly, looking up, out at the rain with unsure eyes.
" Hn, you want to know what's botherin' me,huh...Well,"
He blinked once slowly, his face still forward as he became alittle more stern. " I could give you a whole list, but you still wouldn't understand. Well, you know how I first wanted to come here for revenge,right? Well, alots changed then. I'm not so sure I really want that. My mother and father, and even Tatsu wouldn't want me just to kill the Choshu, I mean, what good would that do? Now, I just want to fight under my name, without my past haunting me. Like you said before *Narrows his eyes at the rain* If I want to stay here, I have to become a demon..."
Takes a deep sigh, looking up at his V-Commander. " Thats pretty much all you need to know, sir."

He kept his gaze upon the li'red hair boy, somewhat baffled of his comment. The boy er, I mean this young man was now thinkin' with his Head. He saw how confident he was on his comment an' yet there was somethin' missin'.
Hijikata:hmn...now u've changed ur mind...How interestin'. Don't take this as a muse but is there a special someone that u want to protect...a certain girl...but enough.
He got up an' slid the doors open to his room an' went in. Moments later he came out with a black katana. He sat next to Tetsu once again an' handed the sword to him.
Hijikata: Here take this, is a gift Ichimura, ur no longer my page ur a member now. U'll get ur uniform later but for now u get the soul an' some of my soul in it. Take care of this sword is the very first one I've ever got...an' no it hasn't tasted the crimson fluid. It was givin' to me from a very special friend so take care of it.
He left the boy there to contamplate the piece of art on his hands. He took the tray an' headed towards the kitchen.
After gettin' out of the boy's sight: I must be crazy, or am I goin' soft...whatever...*scratchin' the back of his neck*...who should he go under...Shinpachik, Sano or Heisuke or Okita...I don't know...man, I need a new page...*sigh*....

Tetsu was concused, but he looked like he was in a whole other world as he gazed down at the abject with crescent eyes. To him, the rain became more softer, yet still pouring. His heart pounded harder in his chest, finally seeing what he had yearned for, for so long...He held it carefully with one hand, and fingered it with the other. This katana, it was different. And in so many different ways...
Tetsu looked back up forward into the foggy rain. He still looked dence, but then just smiled slightly, now holding it with both hands, also laying it on his lap. " Thanks vice Commander..." Whispered Tetsu under his breath as he slowly looked down, a shadow covering his eyes as he still slightly smiled.
'H...how did he know...was it that obvious...*Pauses*...Saya...'
Thought the boy to himself silently...
The day went on, but surprisingly enough, he was getting clear out. The sun was finally breathing...everything seemed to be going back to normal-or...almost normal, if you could even call it that...

He slid open the doors to his room, comin' out of his room in their famous uniform he looked ahead an' yawned. He barely woke up from his slumber. The rain wasn't much help...an' yet he had to go out on patrol...
Shinpachi: Man....I don't like patrolin' while is rainin'...the road becomes mud an' whenever we have to run an' catch up with a ronin...some of the members slip...includin' me...-__-;...how pathetic is that!
The man continued goin' around the corner, he saw Ichimura in the veranda...sittin' an' lookin' down at the brand new sword he got...wait a minute a sword?
Shinpachi: Wow! Where did u get this sword puppy-boy?....its a very good lookin' one...can I see it?...
He saw no motion nor a respond.
Shinpachi snappin' his finger: Yo! Thinkin' of Saya?....*snickerin'*...

Tatsu thought he'd better check on Tetsu. Coming around the corner, he saw Tetsu with Shinpachi. Wait, was that a sword his bro's got?
Tatsu: Nagakura-san, you didn't give him another bokken, did you?

Tetsu didn't notice his older brother yet, and he just blinked once with surprise as he heard the second captain's voice. He quickly looked up and over at him, tighting the grip on his new katana slightly. " I got it from Mr. Hijikata, and no I-*Stammers alittle bit, slightly flustered* I wasn't thinkin' of Saya...what would give you a crazy idea like that..."
Tetsu narrowed his eyes slightly, eyeing the man, then he just looked back out at the fleating sky. Without lookin' at Shin he stood up, and slowly and gently handed it to the man, now looking at him sort of sternly. "Just don't break it, or scratch it, or anything like that ok?" As the sword left his hands over to Shin, Tetsu blinked once again, looking behind him at his brother who walked up to both of them.
"Tatsu? What are you doin' here..."
The sudden appearence of his older brother made Tetsu place his hand over his gut again, and lightly while still looking at Tatsu. Waiting for a reply...

Tatsu: "Er, you do like that girl from the teahouse, don't you... Saya right? She's a nice girl... And nice sword you got..."
There was no mistaking that sword for a toy close up. He hadn't meant to sound hurt. But his kid bro was growing up fast. Maybe too fast for him. Tatsu excused himself.

Shinpachi took his gaze away from Tetsu towards Tatsu instead.
Shin: Nope...that's not from me...I don't know how puppy boy got it. So why r u so worry 'bout it? He is a man after all. He should know his responsibilities, right? Not to be mean or anythin' but let the boy grow up....U on the other hand needs to get a live...or a woman...cuz it seems that ur jealous of ur kid bro havin' one....
He left the two to talk...he needs to get goin' for the patrol...

Tatsu took a deep breath. "Tetsu?"
He was starting to feel awkward. Tetsu was no longer a little brother needing his protection from the big bad world.
