Chapter 4
((I do not own Samurai Champloo, I just own katana\'s. I love you Ku-san, my first original character! Heh,heh...Enjoy!))
CHAPTER FOUR
\"Fu?\" Ku asked the woman behind him, holding on as best she could.
\"Huh?\" She looked up, taking her view from how high off the ground they were.
\"Those two men, they seem pretty dangerous.\"
\"Heh, that\'s okay. To find him they will need to be.\" He could hear a smile in her voice, even if he couldn\'t see it.
\"I suppose. Are you sure you trust them?\"
\"I do and I don\'t. But...I have no choice. It\'s the only way Ku-san.\"
He nodded but didn\'t respond. He couldn\'t argue with that.
\"Thank you again, Ku-san. For everything.\"
\"No problem Miss Fu. Besides, your friend Mugen is quite a worker. I might just want to keep him when you\'re done.\" He laughed imagining the swordsman trying to escape the farm through the woods.
\"Jin would be just as good, if he wasn\'t so ill.\" Fu looked down, this time at the back her face was pressed to.
\"I know that. He will be fine, despite Mugen\'s words I sense a great bond between the two.\" Ku smiled.
\"Really? Cause I just think they hate each other.\" Fu laughed some.
\"Love is deeper than words, Miss Fu.\"
\"Love?!\" She choked.
- - - - -
\"Jin!\" Mugen barged through the hut door. He seen the ronin attempting to get up.
\"Oi, don\'t move you\'re-\" Before Mugen could get the words out his face turned red. Jin just stared, in pain, and not understanding the expression. He was now on his knee, somewhat crouched, trying to stand.
\"What is wrong with you?\" The ronin spoke in a deep gritty voice.
\"Yo-you\'re...\" Mugen pointed, still not able to say it.
Jin looked down and his eyes went wide as he seen his own nudity staring back at him. Clumsily he grabbed the robe and wrapped it around his lower body. Falling into a sitting position with his back to Mugen. The sudden change of scenery made Mugen finally come back to himself and realize Jin was coherent and awake.
\"Hey, you\'re awake...\" He tried to end the awkward moment.
\"Hnn...\" The ronin nodded.
\"How do you feel?\" Mugen approached.
\"What the hell does that matter to you?\" Jin\'s acidic response made Mugen flinch.
//That\'s right, he hates me...//
Mugen tried as hard as he could not to look sad.
\"It just does, so what fish face?\" He had to practically force the insult out of his mouth.
\"I\'m fine. Where are my clothes?\"
\"Remember, I kinda destroyed your gi.\"
Jin just flinched, he had forgotten. It seemed he had missed a gap of time somewhere. The ronin scolded himself for it mentally.
\"You could wear my red haori?\" Mugen was trying.
\"Hmph, like I\'d ever put anything you own on. You\'re disgusting.\" Jin tried to fold his legs up. The muscles were so unimaginably sore.
\"Kiss my ass.\" Mugen snorted. Actually offended, again.
\"Who treated my wounds?\" Jin\'s voice now lacked the acidic tone it had earlier.
\"Well, the big guy first, but I did those this morning.\" The swordsman smiled evilly.
Jin flinched again, his eyebrow twitching.
//HE did it?!//
His mind screamed.
\"Some thanks huh?\"
\"Thank you.\"
\"Huh?!\" Mugen didn\'t expect he\'d actually say it. He recovered quickly though.
\"You know you must like me or something, you got a thing with being naked in front of me.\"
//Some more bait...//
Jin growled. \"You\'re pathetic. I didn\'t know I was nude. You\'re the one who stared with your mouth open.\"
\"Whatever.\"
//Didn\'t take it that time.//
\"I don\'t know what you\'re implying, but I wish you\'d leave me alone! Just because we\'re forced into being around each other does not mean I wish to converse!\" The acid was loaded into each word again. Mugen felt his heart sink once more.
\"Fuck you then, make your own food! If you can even make it out of the hut. Oh yeah, those bandages have to be changed every fucking few hours, so have fun with that, asshole.\" Mugen sneered and walked out of the hut.
//Perverted, or crazy, or what, I don\'t have to take this kind of shit!//
- - - - -
Jin sat there stunned for a second before frowning himself.
//Good riddance, annoying little...//
His mind stopped when he realized his predicament. He could barely stand, and there was no possible way to treat his own wounds...For a brief second he let himself feel afraid, then chased it away with the skill of a hitokiri.
//I do not care.//
He sighed and very slowly attempted to lay down again, this time on his side.
Although it was dim, he could make out a few of the Ryu-kyuian\'s belongings on the futon he was facing.
//Has he really been here the whole time?//
Jin\'s mind played back a fuzzy image of Mugen kneeling close to him, caressing his face.
//W-what was that?!//
He was scared, and shocked. How could he have a memory he didn\'t remember?
//Don\'t panic, it must be from when I was ill.//
The ronin wanted to play it off as a hallucination, but that would be worse. That would mean he was dreaming about the swordsman touching him...In a sensual way. He quickly shook the images out of his mind. He had no qualms about a male lover, just not Mugen.
//I\'d rather die than be with that undisciplined lowlife!//
He closed his eyes tight to not see that damn red coat laying there, but when he closed them he just saw it again.
//Damn you Mugen!//
No matter what chants, or mantra\'s the disciplined man thought of; nothing could take away the image of those slender tanned legs, long lean upper body, and gorgeous face.
//Gorgeous?! He\'s scruffy!//
His mind tried to reason, but it lost out to those untamable eyes. Those amazing, uncontrolled eyes.
//Please tell me that you are not falling in love with...Mugen?//
He didn\'t even let himself answer. Like he didn\'t already know.
- - - - -
The slender man from Ryu-kyu was sitting in the middle of a freshly plowed field. If today would have been normal he would be planting seed\'s right now. But today was not normal...Not at all.
He chewed steadily on the stick of grass pressed between his lips, as if it contained the answer to his woes.
//How could I have ever made myself think he\'d openly accept me?//
The man couldn\'t help but hug his knees to his chest. He felt so alone, so confused, and lost inside his own body.
//How long will I have to be around him?//
He lay his head on his knees, hiding in hair. Despite what he said, now he felt guilty. He knew the ronin was in no shape to be left alone. He would just try to get up and end up making things worse.
//But how can I help someone who hates me? He might even try to kill me...No, he wouldn\'t break his promise.//
Tired eyes looked up at the midday sky, and he smiled pervertivly.
//I did get to see him naked...Nice.//
Mugen didn\'t even try to make himself stop thinking about Jin this time. He just let the image roll and wondered how the hell he was gonna make life bearable after this.

\"You\'re all out?\" The large red head pouted at the vendor.
\"I\'m sorry, Ku. With all the fighting going on, pain medicine is hard to keep in stock.\" The old woman with a gray ponytail nodded. Her eyes somewhere between open and closed.
\"Thanks Kai. If you get some in, save it for me. I\'ll pay for it now.\" Ku reached into his gi sleeve to get his wallet.
\"Wait a minute. I have something new, the mercenaries brought with them. One of it\'s functions does stop pain, but it has certain side effects.\"
\"Like what?\"
\"Similar to being drunk. One loses inhibitions. Normal pain medicine, has a similar effect, just not as strong.\" The old woman smiled.
\"You don\'t say...\" Ku smiled and rubbed his goatee, as if planning something. \"I\'ll take four of them.\" He smiled again, holding back a laugh as he counted his money.
//Those boys are too uptight anyway...//
\"Ku-san!\" Fu, in full disguise came running to the large man. Latching onto his waist.
\"Oh, what is it Miss Fu?\" Ku said bowing slightly, taking the merchandise from the old woman.
\"Over there...\" She breathed out, pointing behind her. There were six old men; with hearts in their eyes, drooling at Fu.
Ku laughed heavily as they pushed through the crowd.
