Remember Me

I might not be able to process what this self-proclaimed Han said.

"He's dead. He's already dead!", I could not help but shout because of this fear engulfing my spirit. Han was long gone. He protected me from a possessed ninja. He sacrificed himself so that I could live. He took his last breath while resting on my arms.

"How could you say such lies? Han is gone!" I burst into tears when suddenly a warm and gentle hug enveloped me. I see Hayabusa. He's caressing my face. I felt at ease. He distanced himself.

Hayabusa showed me a shuriken.

"Where did you get that?" I couldn't help but ask and doubt him.

"You gave it to me for my birthday, remember Kagura?", I continuously shake my head.

"I'm not going to bother you further, Kagura. I'll take a rest for awhile", he then walked away in the opposite direction.

Han is that really you?

"Team up with the other group now!", I was awoken by a loud shout. I peeked through mu window and saw many guards taking formations.

What's going on?

I head outside and found Hayabusa all geared up. He's leading the team.

"Hayabusa's going to take a look at the western part of the village, rumors said that the Akakage were there hours ago", my father said. He already gave instructions to Hayabusa before approaching me.

"Han, I mean Hayabusa, please take care", I could not help but worry.

"I will, Kagura"
