ergastulum. (1x1 w/DarkMudkip)

[DarkMudkip]

He perked, "Oh, shit, it worked?" He asked, "Damn!"

 

[Jikkah]

“Don’t sound so excited, I still feel like a lots missing, but I remember enough.” She stood up, closing the file.

 

[DarkMudkip]

"Still! I didn't expect it to work!" He said.

 

[Jikkah]

“I need to get back to Kojurou, if things are in trouble, I need to get back to him.” She pushed the files back into his hands. “Thank you, this wasn’t a pleasant wake up, but it’s much appreciated.”

 

[DarkMudkip]

He nodded, "No problem." He said as he watched her go, "Wanna ride?"

 

[Jikkah]

Megohime stopped, thinking for a moment, then nodding. “Yeah, I’d appreciate that.”

 

[DarkMudkip]

He nudged his head and walked out with her, moving to his car.

 

[Jikkah]

Megohime followed him, leaving behind her chance at a peaceful life, glancing back at the building once more before getting into the car.

 

[DarkMudkip]

Motochika drove her back to her estate, and when she walked in Kojurou was surprised to see her.
"Megohime-dono...?"

 

[Jikkah]

“Yeah, I got a ride from Motochika, he brought me up to speed with most things, still have a few fuzzy spots though.” She was back to her old self, not the scared untrusting woman he had been returned.

 

[DarkMudkip]

He glared at Motochika, who rose his hands defensively, before smiling softly at Megohime.
"It's good to have you back.."

 

[Jikkah]

“Let it go, I probably would’ve remembered sooner or later and it sounds like it was a good thing it happened sooner- where’s Masamune?” She asked.

 

[DarkMudkip]

"On a job. He should be back soon." Kojurou answered.

 

[Jikkah]

Megohime found herself a bit disappointed, but only nodded, needing to assure her business wasn’t going to suffer any longer. “Get me up to speed, Kojurou.”

 

[DarkMudkip]

He nodded and grabbed a large pile of papers, "This is all the transactions that have been made in your absence."

 

[Jikkah]

Megohime nodded, taking the stack of papers and moving to sit down, needing to go through the papers as quickly and thoroughly as she could.

 

[DarkMudkip]

"I have done my best to carry things as well as you would have." He told her.

 

[Jikkah]

“You did well Kojurou, there’s no reason to fret so much.” Megohime said as she went through the papers. “Give yourself a little credit.”

 

[DarkMudkip]

He smiled softly and nodded, "Thank you, Megohime-dono.."

 

[Jikkah]

Megohime gave Kojurou a glance, a soft smile on her face, knowing her condition must’ve been hard on him.

 

[DarkMudkip]

"Date should be back soon. I sent him on a small guard job for a drug transfer." He told her.

 

[Jikkah]

Megohime nodded, not looking up this time. “Good.” She hesitated for a moment before glancing to Kojurou. “Send him to me when he gets back, will you?”

 

[DarkMudkip]

He seemed hesitant but nodded, "Of course.."

 

[Jikkah]

Megohime dismissed Kojurou to take a break, sitting alone in her office as she went over every transaction Kojurou had overseen.

 

[DarkMudkip]

It didn't seem like long before the door opened.
"Boss...?" Masamune peeked in, "What are you doing here...?"
