The Elements Trilogy
By Angel & Ezzy of PyroAngelEz


Disclaimer: Unfortunately, we do not own Samurai Champloo. We can’t help it if Mugen and Jin willingly insist on being our love slaves.

Summary: After receiving a tip on the Sunflower Samurai’s last heading, Mugen, Jin and Fuu will face rain, snow and unbearable heat in an attempt to catch up with the elusive warrior. With dwindling supplies and a lack of money, how will the trio deal with the hand Mother Nature has dealt them?


Pt II of III: Snow
(Rated NC-17, M/M, F Voyeurism, Masturbation)


Six days. It had been Six days since the burial of Oniwakka and two of those days had been spent traveling to the next village. Thankfully, the weather had been dry, but as they made their way north while they followed the path of the elusive sunflower samurai, the air took on a bitter chill. The path they had followed took them higher in elevation until eventually, they reached a small village.

The trio used the last of their money to pay for the room at the inn while doing odd jobs to earn money for supplies for their journey through the mountain pass. Snow was expected and they knew that to head into the pass with their current supplies, would surely mean their death.

Fuu slid the shoji door shut behind her and moved into their shared room at the local inn. The young woman moved over to the pillows that surrounded the low table and plopped down heavily. She had worked late the previous night and had just returned with her pay for the last four days, to say the least, she was exhausted.

\"Okay guys, show me what you got.\" She said and placed her money on the table before her.

Mugen grunted and dug into his haori, removing a small pouch filled with coins. \"When in the hell are we getting out of this hellhole? Its fucking cold and the people here are boring...\" He complained having not had his required fill of action.

\"It would be unsafe to cross the pass right now unless you want to tempt death.\" Jin dug into his haori and pulled out a small pouch of his own filled with coins. \"I heard it will begin to snow within the next few days and will make it nearly impossible for any form of travel. We may be stuck here so I would suggest getting use to the cold.\" It had been sometime since he had to deal with cold weather like this, but it wasn\'t something he couldn\'t tolerate.

Mugen placed his elbow on the table and gazed lazily at his two travel companions. \"Well either way, we\'re gonna have to head out in the morning.\"

Fuu nodded in agreement. \"Surprisingly, Mugen is right. I\'m guessing he is actually using his brain since he doesn\'t have anything to fight.\"

\"Hey! You little-\"

\"Anyway,\" She grinned, interrupting the swordsman. \"The weather is going to change pretty quickly and there’s no telling when or if we\'ll be able to get out. If we leave in the morning, maybe we can miss the worst part of it and with the jobs we\'ve been doing, we have enough money to get supplies and furs to stay warm.\"

Mugen, choosing to ignore the comment that Fuu had made, sighed before continuing. \"They say that it usually takes about two days to get through the pass with the first day being the worst. The old geezer that owns the shop has a map of areas to take shelter if the weather gets too bad. He gives \'em to anyone who’s crossin\' the pass.\"


Jin sat in thought for a moment. Personally he didn\'t want to fight the cold weather, not in these mountains. But it seemed by majority, they were going to face it. \"Fine. I suggest we stock up on supplies and head out by dawn. It would be the safest time to head out.\" His arms stayed folded and he closed his eyes, inwardly sighing.

\'At least I\'m not going to die alone... Well, on second thought, maybe that would have been for the better..\' This was definitely going to be a long trip.

\"I volunteer you two to do that. I\'m going to get the map and see if I can get some grub for us tonight.\" Mugen said before pushing himself to his feet. The wild haired man stretched his arms over his head, causing his tunic to lift a bit.

Fuu was going to say something, but her thoughts slipped from her when her eyes caught sight of his toned and tanned stomach. She didn\'t fail to notice the thin line of hair that traveled from his navel and disappeared below the tied waistband of his shorts that had been hidden beneath the hakamas he now wore to keep himself warm.

Realizing she was staring, the chocolate haired girl shook her head, banishing the thoughts that entered her mind but unable to rid her cheeks of the blush that stained them. \"Um, okay...Jin, I guess its me and you.\" She said, looking to the blue clad rounin, feeling her cheeks turn hot when she met his dark eyes.

Jin only nodded and followed after Mugen out of their shelter for the night. His haori was pulled tighter around himself as the bitter cold instantly bit into him. The rounin dared to glance back at Fuu to see how she was fairing. He wouldn\'t admit it outright, but he did feel a sort of connection to the woman that was forcing both Mugen and himself on this journey. In a way, it was giving him a purpose and also companionship, which he had lacked before this entire mess.

\"Where should we head first?\" He asked the little onna.

\"Well, I think we should get our clothing and furs first, then get food and our other supplies.\" She said after a moment of contemplation while they walked.

During their travels so far, she hadn\'t had much time to spend with Jin like this. Sure, they had been in the same room alone with him before, but she couldn\'t get more than one or two word answers out of him. But looking back, she could look back and say that she really didn\'t mind. She truly had come to respect and enjoy his company, even in his silence. It was in that silence that she truly had a chance to observe the rounin.

Fuu was pulled from her thoughts by the sound of his deep yet smooth voice. The young woman looked up to the handsome man and blushed. \"Sorry, I didn\'t hear you...\"

\"I said that we\'ve arrived.\"

She looked up to see that they were indeed at one of the shops were they would be making a stop at. Jin opened the door for her and allowed her to enter where they began gathering warm clothing and fur cloaks and blankets for their journey.

o-o-o-o

Clothing and the fur cloaks were folded neatly and tucked into the blankets before that was folded as well. They paid for the supplies there before moving onto the next shop. Food was purchased there and wrapped carefully and stuck into blankets, making it easier to carry. Few herbs and medicines were grabbed as well and pushed into the growing bundle of supplies they had for the cold.

As they were leaving the last shop, Jin remembered something. \"Give me your blade, Fuu.\" At her raised brow, he only held out his hand not going to argue with her. He watched her fumble with it before handing it over. The rounin moved back to the counter, setting Fuu\'s and his own weapons on the counter. \"Could you service these for me?\"

The man at the counter nodded and took both of Jin’ weapons along with Fuu’s blade.

\"It will only take a few minutes Fuu if you don\'t want to stay in here.\"

Fuu nodded and looked around the shop while their blades were sharpened and checked over and found three decent sized packs and a bundle of firewood, which was paid for as well. \"Jin, I\'m going to leave this here and go out to get some air. I\'ll be outside.\" She said and received a nod in reply.

The teen tucked her arms into the sleeves of her kimono as she looked around the small mountain village. A beautiful blue kimono in the window of the shop next door drew her attention. She moved to it and stared through the frosty window, wondering if she would ever be able to afford something so beautiful.

\"Not likely...\" She murmured, a wistful sigh escaping her lips. She turned the head back into the shop where Jin was waiting for their weapons where her foot became caught on a divot in the road causing her to trip and bumped into someone walking past. \"I\'m sorry!\"

\"Watch where yer goin\' ya clumsy baka!\" She heard the slurred words of the man she had bumped into and winced.

\"I said I\'m sorry.\" She said before adding a soft \'geez...\' under her breath.

\'\'Well sorry isn\'t good enough!\" He said coming forward with a lecherous grin. The man grabbed her and pulled her close to his body. She tried to break the drunken man\'s grip, but it was like iron. His hand slipped into her kosode and fondled her breast with his calloused hand. \"But I know a way you can show me you\'re sorry!\" He said and abruptly pulled his hand away from her breast and clamped his hand over mouth, dragging her towards an alley.

Fuu bit his dirty hand and struggled. \"Let me go! Don\'t touch me!\" She managed before her mouth was covered. Fear coursed through her at the thoughts of what could happen raced through her mind. \'Help me!\' She screamed, but it came out as a muffled, garbled mess.

o-o

Jin had tucked both their weapons into his obi and grabbed up their
things when he heard Fuu yell out. The rounin wasn’t sure what was said, but it didn\'t sound good at all. Quickly he paid the man for sharpening and checking their weapons before telling she shopkeeper that he would return in a moment for their things and heading out of the shop. He looked around the shop and just managed to see a struggling foot disappear into the alley between the shop he had just left and the next.

Calmly, Jin made his way towards the alley. \"I would suggest letting her go,\" he said in his usual deep tone.

Fuu let out a happy squeal from beneath the man\'s hand and began to struggle even more, her kicks and elbows having no effect on the drunken man.

\"Who the fuck are you?! Mind yer own business! I gotta teach this little bitch it’s not nice to bump into people!\" He growled and hiccupped at the man who now stood calmly before him.

Jin was unaffected by the man\'s words or the state he was in. \"I will only say this once more. Let her go.\" This time, his tone took a bit more seriousness to it. His hand moved to grab the hilt of his sword, not concerned for the man\'s life. He had taken many lives before and this man\'s wouldn\'t be any exception if he decided to not heed his words.

The man seemed to consider his options...he saw the hilts of the blades at the rounin’s hip then looked down to the struggling girl in his arms. In a brief moment of clarity, he roughly pushed her forward only to have her land on her knees at Jin\'s feet.

\"Keep the little bitch...I\'ve had prettier.\" He hiccupped before turning away and staggering slightly down the alleyway.

Fuu braced her hands on the cold ground in silence, her entire body shaking, but not from the cold. She was scared and thankful that the blue clad samurai had come when he did. A tear escaped her eye and landed on the ground that she now knelt on.

The urge to slice the man\'s head off was pushed back as he knelt down to the ground, offering his hand to her. \"Come Fuu. Let\'s head back,\" he said softly. He watched her look up at him and his lip twitched just slightly. The rounin was truly starting to grow attached to the small woman.

When her hand grabbed his own, he wrapped his fingers tightly around her smaller hand and helped her up from the ground. \"Would you like me to kill him?\" He meant his words, looking at her with dark eyes.

Fuu moved forward and placed her forehead against his chest and shook her head softly, her hand still within his larger one. \"No...he\'s not worth it Jin...but thank you for coming to find me.\"

She once wondered why fate had decided to pair her with Jin and Mugen, but it was times like this that made things clearly obvious. She could always depend on them to watch out for her, even when they acted like they didn\'t care about her.

\"Come on Jin...lets go back.\" She said quietly. They walked back to the store and grabbed their purchased items before heading back to the inn.

Jin stayed close to Fuu as they traveled back to the inn they were staying at. He let her slip into the room first before following after her, setting their supplies into one of the corners. The rounin started a fire in the middle of the room warming up the room slowly. He walked over to Fuu with a blanket in hand and draped it over her shoulders.

\"Why don\'t you get some rest Fuu? We will be heading out early in the morning.\"

The young woman looked from her contemplation of the fire as the blanket was draped around her shoulders. She gave him a soft smile and a slight nod. \"Thanks Jin...I think I will.\" She said and watched as he moved her futon close to her, but a safe distance from the fire.

She moved to her knees and crawled across to it before lying on her stomach. Fuu tucked her arm under the pillow and brought her head to rest on the soft, feather filled pillow. The exhaustion she felt from working and the emotional strain from what had just occurred, sent her into a deep sleep.


Mugen walked into the room a few minutes later and pushed his hair away from his forehead before sliding the door shut and latching it behind him. He looked to Fuu then turned to Jin. \"What’s up with her?\" He asked, noticing the slight frown that graced her features even in sleep.

Jin looked up from the fire to Mugen. \"A drunk came onto her,\" a slight bitterness was in his voice as he said it. Though the matter was over, it still seemed to pain the small woman, which ultimately, left him a bit foul. The feeling wasn\'t one he cared for and couldn\'t say he felt a lot. The only way he could rationalize his thoughts was by admitting that his attachment was growing towards Fuu.

\"Did you get the map?\"

Mugen grunted, trying to hold back his anger before tossing the rolled map to Jin, who caught it easily. The food he purchased was placed on the low table before he turned to look at the sleeping girl. \"We\'ll have to look over that...\" He mumbled and placed his swords on the ground near the table. \"She wasn\'t hurt?\"

Jin looked over the map before tucking it into his haori. \"From what I can tell, only emotionally,\" he replied, poking at the fire. He stole a glance at her, and then looked over to Mugen. Anger was clearly written on his face though Jin could see he was trying to hide it. It seemed they both had an attachment to the woman.

\"If I find him again, would you like to join me in spilling his blood?\" It wasn\'t something he would normally ask but wanted to know how far Mugen would go. He was curious as if he would kill for Fuu like he would.

\"Fuck yeah...\" He growled clenching his hand as he looked to the hilt of his blade, wanting nothing more than to go hunt the man that touched their companion.

He looked at the ebony haired man and leaned back, using his arms to brace himself. Whether he liked it or not, he had come to care about his two partners. At first, he wanted nothing more than to ditch her and kill Jin, but now, things were different. The care that he had for the two of them was often hidden behind his sarcasm and rudeness, but it also made him wonder if they noticed.

Mugen shook himself from his thoughts and moved to Fuu\'s side. He reached out and gave her arm a gentle shake. \"I know ya just laid down, but you need to eat especially if we\'re going through the pass tomorrow.

Fuu opened her eyes and nodded, her stomach rumbling slightly when the scent of food reached her nose. Her eyes widened a bit when Mugen held his hand out to her. She looked at it curiously for a moment and allowed him to pull her to her feet. They moved to the table and sat as food was placed out for the three of them.

\"Come on Jin.\" She called over to him and gave a faint smile.

Jin\'s lip twitched slightly as he pushed himself up from the floor. He moved over to the table, plopping down opposite of Fuu. Chopsticks were grabbed and he slowly dug into the meal Mugen had gotten for them. The rounin watched the other two as they wolfed down the food set out before them. He had never been able to understand how they could eat so much and so quickly, especially Fuu.

o-o

The trio soon finished their evening meal and after changing into a sleeping yukata, Fuu had returned to her futon as Jin tossed the remnants of their dinner into the trash. She looked up to the two men while they climbed into their own futons.

\"Night guys...and thanks.\" She said quietly and saw them nod before her eyes closed. Soon, the only sound that filled the room was the sound of the crackling embers in the fire pit, even breathing, and the occasional snore.

o-o-o-o

Dawn began to break across the mountain, signaling to the trio that it was time they left. The packs were quickly filled and they soon were headed out of the inn and up the pass through the mountain range. For the first few hours of daylight, it was clear out and the snow had yet to begin falling. However as it neared noon, the temperature began to drop lower and not soon after did the cold white flakes begin to fall.

The trio was fine until mid-afternoon when the snow came down heavily. They trudged their way through the snow until they found one of the caves that had been marked on the map. Luckily for them, the last travelers to stay there had left a small amount of wood and two slightly torn blankets. Fuu removed some of the wood that she had purchased as well and set about starting the fire as Jin and Mugen attempted to make a barrier between them and the outside. Rocks were piled up in the entrance of the cave along with one of the blankets being held in place to help keep the bitter cold out but allow the smoke to leave the cave freely.

With that done, Jin moved over to their packs and pulled out their blankets. He set each blanket by the fire for now, letting them heat up. The other torn blanket was taken and given to Fuu, noticing that she shivering as she poked at the fire to build it up. He returned to his pack and pulled out a small amount of their dried meat, pickled and fresh vegetables, along with two pots, one smaller than the other.

The meat and vegetables were set in the pot before he moved towards the blocked entrance. He took out one of the smaller rocks, one that wouldn\'t break the entire thing, managing to collect some snow and put it into the pot to be used for water. Jin returned to the fire, setting the pot just on the side of it. He took the stick that Fuu was poking the fire with and used it to push some coals around the pot. Tonight they would be having vegetable stew; something Jin was quite good at making.


Fuu had managed to get a bit warmer with the blanket Jin had given her, and was properly setting up places for them to sleep when the delicious scent of the stew Jin was making, reached her nose. She shivered as she grabbed her fur and moved to sit next to the rounin, wrapping her tiny form within.

\"Fuck, its so cold!\" Mugen complained, adjusting the hakamas he had donned over his shorts. His furs were secured around him as he took a seat on the other side of Fuu. The fire served to heat him more as he removed three wooden bowls and small cups from one of the packs. More snow was quickly gather and heated in the secont pot before it was poured into the cups for Fuu to add the tea.

\"We made pretty good time.\" She said as she stirred the tea and handed a cup to Jin \"Were a quarter of the way from the end of the pass, but we won’t be able to leave until the snow lets up.\"

They had been traveling for eleven hours before the weather became too bad to continue. They knew that they needed to find shelter before their clothing and the protective furs became soaked, which it would make it even harder for them to stay warm. They were all exhausted but managed to push forward, wanting to leave the pass as quickly as possible.


\"It will either let up in the morning or we\'re going to be stuck in here for another day.\" Jin stirred the stew a few more times before taking the bowls from Mugen. Each bowl was poured the same amount and handed to out.

Jin sat back and ate his stew slowly. He was going to enjoy the meal for now and let it help warm him up. Though they were blocked from the harsh wind and snow, it was still a bit cold in the cave. The fire was helping but the cave was vast enough to spread out the heat just so it was cold.

o-o

The trio wolfed down the rationed stew until their bellies were full. The remaining stew was covered in the small pot for them to reheat over the fire in the morning. They moved over to the sleeping areas that Fuu set up close to each other and near the fire.

She moved to lie next to Mugen and covered herself in the blanket. She watched as the wild haired swordsman moved to lie next to her. You\'re still cold?\" He asked and saw her nod.

With and soft sigh, the tanned man reached over and pulled her closer, and instantly felt her stiffen slightly. \"Relax Fuu...\" He said and saw her look up to him with those innocent eyes before she began to relax in his arms. Her breathing evened out and he looked down to see that her eyes were now closed.

He looked over to Jin who was still sitting by the fire. \"You better get some rest. I ain\'t carrying your ass down the rest of this pass.\"

Jin rose a brow at his words. \"I find it hard seeing you carrying \'me\',\" he retorted.

\"Well, you\'re welcome to keep your ass over there and freeze.\" Mugen quipped, looking over his shoulder. \"S\'not like I care what happens to ya anyway, I just think that this ditz would be upset if she woke up to a Jin-cicle.\"

More wood was piled onto the fire and set into place before he joined the two. The rounin slipped underneath his own blanket. At the moment, Jin would rather be warm than keeping his distance from the wild-haired man.

Jin only rolled his eyes and moved to lie against his companion\'s back. The fur blanket was moved to overlay the other two blankets to help keep in more warmth. As he did so, his fingers accidentally brushed across a small patch of bare skin. The touch made him remember a time before which ultimately made him shudder.

Thoughts of a night that seemed like forever ago sprung to his mind. Any attempt Jin had to stop them failed miserably. The organ between his legs became excited just by the thought of the act. It had felt so good then and truthfully had been too long since then. However, there was no way in hell it was going to happen with Fuu so close to them.


Mugen\'s eyes flew opened when he felt the hardness that was pushed against his ass. He tried to ignore it, he tried to pretend that the heat that was flooding his body was nothing, but as the minutes ticked away, his body rebelled. His body backed further against the aching need that was pressed against his clef as a little moan escaped his lips.

His hips began to move in tiny thrusts against the blue clad rounin. He knew that he shouldn\'t be doing this, especially with Fuu so close, but he needed to feel Jin again was overriding his common sense.

o-o

Jin fought the moan that wanted to be let out. He did though let his hand snake beneath Mugen\'s shorts, teasing the head of the man\'s member. The rounin moved his hips to push up against the other man\'s ass, letting pleasure course through his veins. Though he knew he shouldn\'t do this, he couldn\'t help his body urges.

Despite the fact that he was wearing his shorts as well as the hakamas to keep his legs warm, he could still feel the hardness as though the were laying skin to skin. Every nerve in his body was tingling wildly as a gasp escaped his lips when he felt Jin\'s strong fingers rubbing against the head of his rock hard cock.

The wild haired man wiggled his hips a bit, helping Jin to pull the fabric down around his thighs. Dark eyes fluttered open in time to see the cinnamon brown eyes of their cute companion gazing into his own. The was no use in hiding it and by the lust that was clear in her eyes, she was extremely aroused as well.

He watched as she pulled back the blankets a bit and slowly slipped her hand between her creamy thighs. His heart began to pound in his chest as he watched her and at that same moment, a moan escaped his lips as he felt Jin slip a finger into the tight ring of muscle.

o-o

Jin stopped at seeing the dark eyes of their female companion. However it seemed that she didn\'t mind and was actually enjoying the show. No longer worried over Fuu, he let his body take control over his mind. He gently pushed a finger into the willing man in front of him. The moan Mugen elicited made his hardened organ throb in anticipation.

The rounin thrust into the tight, warm body with one finger for a few minutes before slipping another in. He felt Mugen shift his legs a bit, giving Jin better access. Shifting his hand a bit, he thrust further into the willing body. His eyes turned to look at Fuu once more and he couldn\'t help the shudder that ran down his spine at watching the small woman pleasure herself.

Mugen tossed his head back and allowed a short hiss to escape his lips at the momentary sharp pain that followed the entry of Jin\'s second long, skilled finger. A moan escaped his lips, only to be mirrored by the feminine one of their companion. Oh how he wanted to reach out and touch her, but he didn\'t want to frighten her away or pull her out of her lust driven haze...she was simply too beautiful.

Dark eyes traveled down her body and to the thatch of cinnamon colored curls at the apex of her thighs. Even through the faint scent from their fire, which lingered in the cave, his sensitive nose could pick up the faint scent of her arousal. The firelight flickered, allowing Mugen to spot some of the moisture on her fingers as she slid them over her sex. He hardened even further and thrust back onto the fingers that were stretching him.

Mugen looked over his shoulders and met the intense eyes of Jin as his fingers continued to move. \"Now...\" He said in a gruff, husky tone before allowing another word to slip from his lips. \"Please...\" He ground out before turning his eyes to the one who was once dubbed \'backwards beauty.\' From his view of things, however, everything about her right now was beautiful.


Jin didn\'t have to be told twice. He thrust his fingers inside of him a few more times before withdrawing. The rounin pulled down his hakamas far enough to free his pulsing member. Precum was used to slick the head of his member as he moved one of Mugen\'s legs up to give him better access.

Positioning himself at Mugen\'s entrance, he slowly pushed the head of his member into the tight ring of muscle. He sat there for a moment, then pushed the rest of his hardened organ until he was to the hilt.

Jin sucked in a deep breath, dark eyes closing at the wonderful sensation. Mugen was so tight and warm around himself, it was sending tendrils of pleasure up and down his spine. The rounin wanted to move but waited until his companion signaled for him to continue.

o-o

Fuu felt a violent shiver go down her spine as she continued to stroke herself. The look of absolute pleasure that passed over the normally stoic Jin\'s face was just utterly sexy. Within the recesses of her mind, she wondered what it would be like to feel him buried deep within her body, joining them as one. To feel his member pulse with life and excitement within her newly deflowered body after taking away her maidenhood. Jin was undeniably a gorgeous man and since the first time Mugen and Jin rutted in her presence, hell, to be honest, it was even before that, she found herself dreaming of them both more and more.

Fuu shook herself from her thoughts, her hand unconsciously increasing in speed as she watched Mugens\' turgid length bounced against his hard abdomen with each thrust of Jin\'s hips. Her body felt hot all over as precum leaked readily from his member. \"Oh...\" She moaned, her eyes closing and the cold forgotten in her pleasure.

o-o

The sight of Fuu continuing to pleasure herself was making him all the more aroused. His thrusts were picking up becoming fast and deep into the willing body. His hand had now found it\'s way to the front of Mugen, stroking the proud member that lay between his thighs. The moans were increasing and he wasn\'t sure how much longer he would be lasting. Between his companions’ moans and the tight, warm muscle wrapped around his thrusting member, he felt like he was in heaven.

\"Fuck!\" Mugen ground out as he spread his thighs a bit further, allowing his lover to delve deeper and deeper into his body. With each thrust his body shook as the head of Jin\'s cock assaulted his sensitive prostate each time and the hand glided over the thick, hard shaft of his need expertly.

His eyes opened slightly in time to see Fuu part her thighs in the very same manner that he had parted his as she lay on her side. She made sure to stroke her aching bud in time with Jin\'s hand he slid it across Mugen\'s flesh. Her hands moved further down and slowly slipped into her tight canal. She gasped at the sensation as she eased her finger in to the point of her barrier, but dared not to go further.

A loud female moan filled the barricaded cave, reaching the ears of her two men followed by a series of moans and the occasional high pitched squeak that managed to escape her lips. She was so close and she knew that she wouldn\'t last much longer at all. The imagined sensation of their hands all over her was simply proving to be to much for her tiny form.

After a few moments, a loud gasp followed by a shrill scream of pleasure bounced around the small cave as her fingers brushed over a glorious spot within her canal, causing her body to clam down on her fingers. Her back arched and her mouth hung open in a soundless cry as her body convulsed from her orgasm.


Mugen saw her body tense and felt the coil that had been holding his his lower abdomen break. \"Shit!\" He cried out as he clamped down on Jin\'s manhood and arched back into Jin as his seed coated the rounin\'s strong hand.


A low grunt left Jin\'s lips at feeling Mugen\'s body clamp around him. He continued to thrust a few more times before his own climax washed over him. His head fell against Mugen\'s shoulder as his body jerked, the blinding pleasure washing over every inch of them. Then that moment was over, his breathing hard and his heart beating fast.

Jin laid there for a few minutes, catching his breath before withdrawing from the warm body. The white seed that was spread all over his hand was wiped off on the blanket, the only thing in reach at the time. Then he pulled his hakamas back up and assisted in Mugen as he watched Fuu lean towards the two.

The little woman moved closer to the men, bringing her furs with her in the process. A soft smile was given to the two men as she leaned in and kissed Mugen\'s lips softly and shyly. She felt him stiffen in surprise for a moment before his body relaxed and he pushed back into the kiss, his hand coming to rest on the curve of her hip.

Once the kiss broke, she met the stormy eyes of the blue clad rounin before leaning in to kiss his lips as well, but with a little more confidence and passion. She nipped at his bottom lip and smile before pulling back and reaching above her head to grab her pack. She reached into the hand-sewn bag and removed a drying cloth and wiped Jin\'s hand completely dry before moving to clean Mugen and help him adjust his shorts and hakamas. The mostly dry towel was folded and placed over the wet spot that Mugen’s pearly white essence had caused as she looked at the two males before her.

\"I\'ll say this once...you leave me out again, there\'ll be hell to pay, got that?\" She said, letting out a little mock growl, causing a short bark of laughter to escape Mugen’s lips. However, the laughter was shortly followed by a nod.

Jin shook his head and pulled Mugen close against himself. When the man was settled, he told Fuu to lie directly against Mugen. All the furs were piled together on top of them as the fire began to die down, turning into burning embers. However the cold wasn\'t going to touch any of them this night. Heat had already been built between the three and now it was contained with all their bodies pressed together, the furs holding it all in.

Mugen felt an arm drape possessively over his waist and couldn\'t help but to crack a slight smirk. He could honestly say that he did not mind feeling Jin pressed up against him and holding him so securely, It just felt right.

Dark eyes softened slightly at the soft snores already coming from the little woman he had sworn to protect. Once upon a time, it was nothing more than an irritating obligation, but now, it was much more. Although he would deny it whole-heartedly if asked, he found that he wanted to protect the little woman and something was telling him that Jin felt the same. No harm would come to the snoring little onna while they were around; this was something that he promised to himself.

Mugen kissed Fuu\'s forehead softly and closed his eyes, knowing that he would have to add wood to the fire a little later, but for now, he just wanted to sleep. Soon the wild haired man was pulled into unconsciousness holding and being held by his companions.

-o-o-Authors Notes-o-o-

Well, that was part two of The Elements Trilogy! We really did have fun writing this one and hoped you all enjoyed it.

Hopefully we’ll be able to get started on the final part to the trilogy, “Heat.” It will take place a few months after this. We already are thinking about making a continuation/spinoff for this which may or may not take place after they’ve ended their search for the sunflower samurai. Of course, since CTN hasn’t reached the end of the series yet, it will be AU. Sure, we could probably search the net and find out what happens, but we both DESPISE spoilers. We’d rather just be patient little gals and wait for the series to end.

THINGS TO EXPECT FROM US IN THE FUTURE:

- More chapters to Let US Love You and Deadly Addiction
- A new Peace Maker Kurogane fic with the pairing Tetsu/Souji (which was given to us as a challenge)
- A Final fantasy IX/DNAngel/FF7 crossover fic. It will take place in the ff7 world with the main characters being Dark (DNAngel), Kuja (FFIX), Tseng and Vincent (FFVII)
- “Firemen” which is a KH/FF7 Fic with the main charries being Sephiroth, Zack, Riku and Sora. (a fic that will have the talents of all THREE members of PyroAngelEz)

Those are just a few things that I can think of at the moment. We are open to pairing challenges on occasion if they are in the areas of ff7, KH, ff8, Peace Maker Kurogane or Samurai Champloo. DO NOT REQUEST ANY ICKY PAIRINGS SUCH AS HOJO/VINCENT, OLD MAN SHINRA/SEPHIROTH, etc! We just can not picture things like that without having it turn our stomach.

We are constantly getting access to new animes and our bishi index is increasing all the time ^___^. Just be aware that it may take time for us to make time to acknowledge a challenge to accept or decline.

Thanks for reading our fics and don’t forget to review!!!

Angel (Shadowbeaw) and Ezzy (Ezri-Candy)
