A Woman At War - Part 3: On The Road

heading to Odani Castle now and I’m halfway there..travelling along the trails..leaping from branch to branch..and then all of a sudden it strikes me..a foul odor..the Genma!. sitting on a limb high up in a tree..someone clamps their hand over my mouth from behind!!..the voice whispers..shhh..stay still..not yet. I turn around..it’s Rekimaru!. I thought you were dead!. {riki}..signs of my demise are not entirely clear, Kasumi..and Samanoske is making his way to..as are Simone and Kahechi. WHAT!..WHAT ON EARTH ARE THOSE TWO BITCHES COMING HERE FOR!!. {reki}..keep your cool, Kasumi!..you want every Genma within earshot to hear us!!. huh!..oh..sorry Rekimaru..but understand this, Lord Nobunaga IS MINE!. {reki}..not if Samanoske reaches him first. well..I’ll just see about that..smoke bomb..pooff. {reki}..now where the hell did she go!?..there she is..leaping from tree to tree..i must catch her!..Simone AND Kahechi are both in love with Kasumi..and if they manage to catch up here..well, that’s a conflict i can’t allow..we must keep our focus on what matters..it might take all of us to slay Nobunaga…that is, provided Samanoske doesn’t fall.
