Love Stories

There were some screaming in the distance that Ranmaru couldn't faintly hear. He opened his eyes and looked around groggily, his ears coming to and it was really close. It sounded like his mother arguing with someone....now who was it? Ranmaru got up and walked closer to his mother, coming around the corner and seeing her on the ground and an army before her.

"You will give us supplies. Or we will just take them and kill you." He growled.
"But we don't have much, only that of what will do us...." She said.

Ranmaru ran over to his mother and looked up at the soldier. He frowned and the man grabbed his arm, he grinned.

"What a beautiful girl, I might just take her instead of the supplies." He smirked and leaned in to smell Ranmaru's skin.
"What does she smell like captain?" Another asked on the horse behind him.
"Like flowers..." He grinned.

Ranmaru growled and pushed out of the man's grip. He ran over quickly, grabbing a sword, then pointing it back at the soldier. His mother ran back inside, peeking from the corner.

"This girl's got fire." The man grinned, pulling out his sword.
"I'm not a girl!!" Ranmaru screamed out.
"What? That can't you, you're far too pretty to be a boy."
"My name is Ranmaru Mori and I will kill you if you do not continue past my house." He growled.
"So you are a boy, the name explains it. No matter. If you can defeat me, we will go, but if
I defeat you, we will take everything in your house and burn it down, kill your mother and take you for our slave....Deal?" He asked.

Ranmaru gulped, he wasn't rgood at at...but the intimidation failed and he was in deep shit. His bothers and his father went off to do something and he was left to defend his home....Ranmaru gritted his teeth.

"Fine. But you asked for it." His voice was trying not to quiver.

The army formed a circle around the two as Ranmaru quickly tied his hair up into a ponytail and then looked to the other, holding his sword. He thought about watching his brothers train some, but immediatly forgot most of it. The man came at him and he dodged, rolling away, and dropping his sword. He crawled over towards it quickly, but already found a foot on it as the tip of a sword was at Ranmaru's chin.

"You're pathetic...Stand up...." He chuckled.

Ranmaru did just that, slowly raising to the tip of the sword, he looked down, hoping the man wouldn't do anything to hurt him. The captain grinned as he took one of his daggers and ripped it down Ranmaru's clothes, revealing his skin as the kimono fell off and he was standing there in white thong undies.((Whatever they are called xD) The Captain grinned and reached around and took to the iet of of Ranmaru's hair watching it fall around his shoulders. He grinned more and took off his glove, running a hand down the other's body, getting to his groin he slipped the darrger underneath the side and cut it as it fell.

"He's so nice boys...it would be my honor to take you." He grinned.

He grabbed ahold of Ranmaru's wrist and pulled him, but Ranmaru pulled back, yelling and screaming. A soldier behind Ranmaru hit him on this head as he fell unconsious and the captain put the naked boy over his shoulder, slapping his butt. Two other men started taking things from the house, putting them on the wagon as two other men grabbed Ranmaru's mother and dragged her behind the house....After the house was burning, the army laughed at what they had done as the captain grinned at the prize he had on his horse, a young fresh male virgin, so beautiful too. The army carried on as they set down for camp a few miles away, setting up tents, the captain grinned and walked in his, setting Ranmaru down and tying him up.

A figure on a horse trotted up and frowned when he seen it was burning, he looked around and seen a woman against a tree, he was still moving. The long haired male ran over towards her.

"Are you alright?" He asked.
"Who....are you?" She asked.
"My name is Mitsuhide Akechi...what happened here?" Mitsuhide asked the badly wounded woman.
"An army came and...took everything....my son too...." She cried and gasped a few times and his head fell limp.

Mitsuhide let out a sigh, he reached up and closed her eyes, setting her down. This really tore his heart out, he heard from Yoshinori Mori that his family was very loving...now...there were now one to be seen. He rose with his hand clenching his sword, he was going to go teach this army a lesson, even if he had to do it alone. Maybe the Saito would help him, but that would take days, he only had minutes. Mitsuhide ran towards his horse, hastily getting on it and took off towards the army tracks. When he came towards the camp of the army, he hid in the bushes, noticing the flag..

"Oda.." He breathed with hate.

The ronin waited and waited until it was dark, when he picked out the captain aong others that's when the captain opened his flap to his tent and Mitsihide caught the sight of a naked male boy. He clenched his teeth together and sneeked around, most of the men were sleeping. Mitsuhide got to the back of the captain's tent and the light was out, he crawled underneath the tent's bottom and looked around, seeing the outline of Ranmaru's form, he grabbed onto his shoulders and lightly pulled him. When finally Mitsuhide got the poor boy out, he also yanked out a blanket, he untied Ranmaru and wrapped the blanket around him. Picking him up sort of bridal style, he took off towards his horse. He set Ramaru on first and then got up, wrpping one arm around Ranramu's waist and another on the reins, he silently took off. The captain yawned and reached over with one arm to feeling around, but nothing was there...

"WHAT?!" He yelled as he sat up and ran out of his tent, the soldiers running over towards him.
"what's the matter captain?" One asked.
"The boy is missing! Find him!!" He screamed.

The long haired ronin held onto Ranmaru gently as his head was resting against Mitsuhide's shoulder. He groaned a little and opened his eyes slowly, looking around it was dark. He was with someone....His head hurt too much as he reached back and felt it.

"Ah you're awake. That's good." A deep seductive voice purred out.
"Who....are you?" Ranmaru asked.
"I'm Mitsuhide Akechi...I just saved you from a army establishment." He said.
"Mitsuhide...you're that one that...was suppose to come to my house...My house?! What hapened to my mother?!" He asked.
"I'm sorry...but she's in the afterlife now..." The ronin looked down.
"No...I wasn't strong enough to defend her...it's all my fault..." He started to cry, tears running down his cheeks.
"No it's not your fault, it was the army's fault. They are part of the Oda clan, those under Oda's orders are ruthless and love to kill for the heck of it. I'm sorry..." Mitsuhide said.
"I'm so useless..." Ranmaru breathed and pulled up his hands to cry into them.

Mitsuhide just sighed and he held the other, letting the other's tears fall. It was hard on him to see a boy's life being crushed so suddenly....

"Let me take you to see her..." Mitsuhide said as he trotted back towards the burning house.

When they got there, Ranmaru held the blanket firmly together as he ran over, standing infront of it. Tears still going down, that's when he noticed his mother, he ran over and kneeled down as he lied halfly on her.

"Mother..." He cried and sobbed into her blood stained kimono.

Mitsuhide walked over and kneeled down, placing a hand on Ranmaru's back. He felt like doing something for this poor boy....

"Do not worry. I will bury her respectfully, and then I will take good care of you." He said and Ranmaru sat back.

The raven haired man walked up and grabbed a shovel nearby that was in the liitle shed, he started to dig, one the hole was big enough, he gently picked up Ranmaru's mother and gently set her in it, filling it back up with dirt. Ranmaru walked over and stood there, watching him do it, the fire iluminating the whole scene. Ranmaru leaned into Mitsuhide's arms and the other male wrapping one around Ranmaru's waist, six words repeated in Ranmaru's mind that Mitsuhide said. 'I will take care of you....'
