"Kamatari, are you awake?" Misao said as she stood patiently outside the cross dresser's room. But there was no response. "I assume you're awake pretty boy, I'm gonna come in now!" She warned.

Misao was surprised to see a energetic Kamatari already in his kimono instead of lying lazily on his bed.

"Ohayo, kamatari!" the weasel girl greeted.

"I'm going out." Kamatari replied, packing his bag at the same time.

"Where are you going this early morning?"

"Hiei Mountains."

"Hi………ei……… mountains???" Misao ventured into thoughts and came only to know that it was Shishio's lair.

Kamatari stood at the run down entrance of Mt. Hiei. It reminded him this was the place where Kenshin and his most respected Shishio- sama staked their lives in a battle which determined Japan's fate.

The cross dresser withdrew a dagger as he sensed danger approaching. "Bandits?" He thought as the sound of footsteps getting nearer to him.

As the figure moved closer to the entrance, the light had revealed part of his clothing. Grass sandals. Black hakama. Blue gi. His face was still covered by the unlit passage but somehow, Kamatari could see the brief outline of the head. It resembled like one of the Juppongatana's member.

"Stay away!!!" The cross dresser hissed.

"I mean no harm, miss………" The stranger said politely and he finally emerged from the darkness.

Kamatari dropped his dagger. What he had been searching very hard for years came to a reality. Tears began to form at the edge of the cross dresser's eyes. He could not believe what he saw in front of him. It was too real. The girly boy pulled himself up and faced what god had arranged for him bravely. A blissful smile lit up on Kamatari's face. The cross dresser finally gathered all his courage for a phrase.

"Sou- chan……… I have finally……… found you………" Kamatari cried.
