She remembered looking up at Masamune, being in pain and in the cave, but now she was somewhere entirely different.
She looked around, trying to figure out where she was, finding herself walking in no particular direction.
 
Megohime waved awkwardly, feeling a sense of pride and joy at the people who seemed delighted to see her, only she didn’t recognize a single one of them. It was strange, but for some odd reason, she didn’t seem to be against it, her body almost acting on its own, like she was just along for the ride.
 
As soon as she turned her head, the field she was walking through was on fire, bodies littering the ground as she stood there overlooking everything.
 
Megohime’s eyes widened in horror, the familiar smell of burning flesh invading her nose. She looked over the scene, another feeling forced upon her- pleasure. She didn’t understand the overwhelming pleasure she got at the sight of the dead humans at her feet, overwhelmed at the feeling burning in her chest, making her cheeks ache as a wicked smile twisted her face.
 
There were women and children amongst the dead, truly no one was spared and it only pleased her more. A thought played in the back of her mind, how none of them truly feared her and worshipped her and how this punishment was more than fitting.
 
It was too much for her to handle, the smell of burning flesh and buildings, blood soaking into the soil, she felt sick, but at the same time drunk on blood lust. This wasn’t happening, this didn’t happen to her, she never killed civilians, never reveled in it. It felt like she was losing consciousness again, felt like she was falling backward; in a blink, her environment had changed again. This time it was familiar, the stone ceiling of the cave she knew so well. Tears had stained her face, moving to sit up, but finding herself weak and in too much pain to do so.
 
Megohime couldn’t sit up, stuck laying on her back to look to Masamune. Her throat was dry, and she was still confused, but at least the feeling of pleasure and bloodlust were fading. “Masamune.. You’re ok..?”
 
“You seem pretty bummed for someone who says they’re happy..” She teased with a tired smile.
 
“A while..? How long was I out..?” Megohime asked, a worried frown on her face, which was pale and had dark circles under her eyes.
 
She nodded, watching him move across the room, unable to shake the uneasy feeling from her dream. “Ah.. Yeah, I am..” She wasn’t. She felt like she was going to puke after witnessing what she dreamt, but it was probably for the best if she ate. “Thank you..”
 
Megohime drank every drop of water, feeling her mind drifting back to the memory still fresh in her mind. Those bodies had been cut up with what looked like sharp blades, bellies and throats alike torn open, blood spilled across the trampled crops- where had such a memory come from? Why did it feel like such a distant event? Like something she had done years ago, yet one she had never remembered up until that point.
 
Megohime flinched when Kojurou came in, jolting her out of her thoughts and back to reality, giving a tired smile. “It’s good to see you too..” She said, pushing the thought to the back of her mind.
 
He hugged her, holding her tight like a father would their child, "Don't you dare do anything so reckless again.." He pleaded softly.
 
Megohime was practically smothered against his chest, feeling strange. Was this the first time she had hugged anyone? She felt her face flush, patting his arm gently as she let him hold her. “I just wanted everyone to be safe..”
 
Next time. Megohime’s eyes widened and she jerked upright even though it was agonizing to do so. “Th-They’re going to come back..!” She groaned out, clutching her stomach. “One of them said they’d come back again for Masamune..!”
 
Masamune scowled softly and looked to Kojurou.
"We're going to have to move house. This location is no longer safe."
"Hai." Kojurou nodded, "I'll prepare the children." He bowed quickly and left.
