"You mean to tell me Yomi is...!" Kaori suddenly turned to her partner and fell to her knees again. "I called the prince an idiot! ...Multiple times! Oh god!" she cried in shock and horror at the sudden development, grabbing her katana and unsheathing it, aiming it directly at her own gut. "Forgive me, Lord Yomi! I put myself at your mercy!"

"Relax young..." The shogun began to speak, but Yomi stopped him. "No. Allow her to continue and repent for her sins." He stated rather calmly. In truth he still didn't believe it. He had no memory of these two, but this was too much fun. At least it was until his supposed mother slapped him in the back of the head. "Don't be mean." She said calmly. "Ugh... I wouldn't let her kill herself. Not when I worked so hard to keep her alive." He said as he grabbed Kaori's sword by the hilt and removed it from her hands. "Stand up. You're being stupid." He said to her with a bit of an indifferent expression on his face. "Anyway. Isn't there a way to prove whether I'm really your's or not?" With that question Kasumi and Hiro began to ponder it. They were sure of who he was. They'd spent a week digging up information and old things they'd kept. It had to be Yomi.

Kaori obediently stood just behind Yomi, staring at the floor and visibly trembling at the horrid truth. This pickpocket she met back in Shizukesa was the Shogun's most important relative - his son! She called him an idiot too many times to count, yet she was still breathing. Obviously Yomi had no conception of what his status meant, and how badly he could punish his partner for her behaviour. Unfortunately the real scenario didn't cross Kaori's mind at all; Yomi was still himself right now, and wouldn't he always be?

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry~" Her mouse-like voice whispered.

Yomi was currently looking his parents over. "So?" He asked wanting an answer on a way to prove it. He looked like Hiro sure, but that could have been a coincidence. And who knows how many kids had gotten lost in Shizukesa. It was possible they mistook him for someone else. Maybe he was just in denial. And the way Kaori was acting wasn't helping. God it was so frustrating. "Dammit..." He mumbled before turning to Kaori. "How long are you gonna act so troublesome? So... So god damn stupid?!" He snapped at her. "In the span of these few minutes what's really changed about me other than my status which we aren't even really sure of?!" He didn't like the way she was acting. It was her. It wasn't the Kaori he... Well that didn't matter. "Just find me when you think of a way to prove all of this." He barked at his parents before storming off. He wouldn't really leave. Maybe just hit the bar. And drink. And drink. And then when he was hammered. He'd drink some more.

"Hey pal, you don't get to raise your voice to me..." A more familiar sounding growl threatened Yomi from behind. Lazily as usual, she sat down beside him while brushing her face with a torn-off piece of kimono. Kaori was back, no tied-up hair or formal dress, and she had that typical lack of politeness. "Yeah... I figured you wouldn't go all princey in the end, but I like my head attached to the rest of my body. Had to be sure first," she chuckled. Yomi didn't look very amused by this whole situation, but that wouldn't stop his only real friend from being there beside him. Shogun's kid or no, Yomi seemed like he would always be Yomi, simple as...

After Kaori finished fashioning on her usual oddly-cut kimono, she offered her partner a friendly fist bump. "Smile for me already, ya' idiot..."

Yomi sighed and drank his sake before fist bumping Kaori. "Finally." He said calmly before offering her drink. He sighed. "You know... I used to sit around listening to the old men in Shizukesa talking about how they just wanted to drink it all away. Like just forget everything." He said to her. "Me... I wanted the opposite. When i drank... I would see pictures. I couldn't make them out. So I'd try to drink more." Yomi laughed a bit. "I guess drinking to remember is kind of stupid though isn't it?"

"Yeah, it's like you're getting the opposite effect. Kinda weird." Kaori agreed as she tapped Yomi's drink with her own. After taking a large sip she set it down and tilted her head in curiosity at her partner, "So, Edo. We staying or going? I don't mind either way, as long as you're happy with it," she admitted.

Yomi drank some more. "Lets decide after this crap gets straightened out." He said calmly as he ordered more to drink. Not like he couldn't pay for it after all if he was the Shogun's son.

Kaori sighed in relief at things being mostly back to normal, then took another large sip of her sake. "No better time to be in than the present, I guess... So Yomi, I caught a few glimpses of what you pulled off back when we rescued Lady Kasumi. What.. was that? It's like you lost it..." she mentioned.

"Ah... So you saw." Yomi said calmly. "It was..." He paused for a moment. How could he answer this question? He really couldn't. "It was skill being put to use. So really it was nothing." He said with a laugh as he drank more.

Kaori half-smiled at Yomi and turned her gaze at the bar top, "So we're the same. There's a.. murder button, that people press sometimes." she chuckled dryly. They were both murderous to some degree, but fortunately only at the right times. It felt kind of weird to Kaori.

"Shouldn't really be ashamed of it though. You two are some of the fiercest blades I've ever seen, especially when you're fighting together." Hibiki said as he approached, taking up the empty seat beside Kaori. "You guys took on an army of outlaws and lived to tell the tale. It was pretty shocking to ride into a half-finished battle!"

"Yeah well Kaori and I are just badass like that!" Yomi laughed taking another drink. "So you here to join us?" He asked as he threw his arm around Hibiki.

"Guess so," Hibiki said cheerfully, "I was actually thinking we should talk. About your sensei, Yomi."

Kaori flicked her eyes toward Hibiki as he mentioned the legendary Blind Samurai, the one who taught Yomi everything he knows... "Is he alive?" she asked with interest.

Hibiki slowly nodded, "We couldn't find a thing in his dojo, only a strange marking on the floor in blood. The blood of an Imperial soldier, I think - there was a body outside the place completely drained. It was strange... But I think I saw him walking away from our burning town, slowly as ever in Edo's direction. We couldn't get to him as the battle was so harsh."

Kaori turned her gaze back to the bar and drank up, "I'd figure he got lost or something then."

"I'm sure the old man is doing absolutely fine. In fact. Let's toast to his and our own health!" Yomi said cheerfully as he held up his sake. "You two tend to get so serious sometimes." He said making it rather obvious that he was pretty drunk already. Of course, he'd been drinking a bit longer than both of them. And he'd been drinking in greater quantities.

"Ah, whatever. To Sensei, and to not being dead yet!" Kaori laughed, clashing her cup with Yomi and Hibiki's. The three drank, drank some more and Hibiki was quickly put in a daze. Kaori was amazed; usually Lords had a high tolerance for alcohol from all that sitting around they did... Hibiki was different. Maybe he was actually good at what he did, or maybe he was just a natural lightweight. By the time it was getting dark Kaori was properly wasted. And there was still so much night to go!

"Hey, Yomies... We should go back to... Wherever we been staying. I can't rembember..." she suggested. The barkeep was chuckling away at the three, especially Hibiki who seemed like he would be sick if he even stood up.

"Guys, I'ma stay right here, kay...?" Hibiki murmured.

"S*hic*sure..." Yomi mumbled as he staggered to his feet and threw his arm around Kaori. "You sure you're good to go? You ain't looking too hot..." He stopped for a minute and chuckled. "Well... You are lookin hot... But... You know what I mean." He said as he shook his head and took a few steps forward. "Be safe hibiki." He said a it loud with a hearty laugh. Yomi was absolutely wasted. Lord knows how much will power he had to even be moving, let alone speaking right now.

"Eh, yeah! I'llmn be fine. You two have a good nighss sleep...!" Hibiki waved at the two as Kaori smashed into the door frame on her way out. And here he would stay, for a Lord would most likely be cared for wherever he was. Still, he'd probably pass out on the bar soon.

After stumbling out of the bar, Kaori wrapped an arm around Yomi to keep herself steady. Okay! Now all they had to do was find their way back into the Citadel, absolutely fucking wasted. There was no way the guards would let these bumbling idiots in now, and certainly not at this hour. Not everyone was aware of Yomi's rumoured status as the Shogun's heir after all.

"Yew bashtard... I alwaysh look hot! An' don'tchu ever think otherwise!" Kaori snapped incoherently as the few street-walking people of the night began making way for the two drunks. They had swords, and crossing drunken Samurai might not be the best of ideas!

"You don't have to tell me that." Yomi laughed before stumbling a bit. It was a rather difficult journey that lied ahead of them. He could barely walk right and as they reached they walked he finally toppled over pulling Kaori down with him. "You know... We don't have to go all the way back their..." His words were choppy, slurred, somewhat hard to understand. But luckily for them they were near a hotel. At least... It looked like an ordinary hotel. The truth is that it was more of a... Well. Simply put it was a love hotel. Everyone needed them. Maybe not that exactly. But it was a known place for romantic rendezvous. Yomi pointed it out. "I'm sure we could stay at that place til morning. The shogun wouldn't mind... Right? He probably trusts me since he thinks I'm his son..."

"I dun' care where we go, I jush needa put my face on a pillow..." Kaori mumbled with her head rested on the dirt where they two fell. The drunken samurai thing didn't seem all that threatening to onlookers anymore... They were wrecked! "Carry me, you damn peasant!" she commanded.

"You're too damn bossy." Yomi commented as he forced himself up and lifted Kaori. He carried her into the hotel and threw some money on the counter. He was given a key rather quickly and carried his friend to their room. it actually took a bit to find. The noises coming from the various rooms was a rather indistinguishable one. "People around here sure love to have fun huh." Yomi laughed as he finally found their room and dropped her on the bed. "Hm? Oh... There isn't a couch or anything here..." He grumbled. "Guess I'll stay on the floor."
