Mugen (1×1 w/ Jikkah)

When he was gone to take the trays to the kitchen, Himari tugged at Yuko’s clothes a soft frown on her face. “Where are we going?”
 
“Free us when we move, huh?” The familiar low growl of Sanemi’s voice sounded behind her, Himari’s eyes widening and quickly she moved to hide behind Yuko out of fear, clutching tightly to the back of her robes.
Sanemi stood in the open doorway, eyes trained on Yuko, a look of rage and hurt clear on his face. “You’re planning to run off?”
 
"Sanemi!" He could hear her heart pounding against her ribcage as she whipped around to face him, "Y-You scared me! No, I-I wouldn't do that to you! N-Not after you've been so kind! I-I was just..." She couldn't think of a lie fast enough, faltering for two seconds too long, "J-Just trying to get Himari to trust me! Y-You know how gullible kids are!" She shielded the girl regardless, knowing it was a bad lie, "I wouldn't hurt you like that, Nemi, you know me well enough...!"
 
He stalked toward her, shaking his head. “I’m not stupid, Yuko, I heard you.” He stopped in front of her and back-handed her hard across the face, Himari crying out in fear and concern when he knocked Yuko to the floor. “You still want to go back to the corps, you want to take my head still. So go on then, take my head, Yuko!!”
 
She swallowed a wail as she hit the floor, taking a moment to weigh her options before jumping up and slamming her shoulder into his gut. She tried to reach around him to get to his blade, terrified but determined.
 
Yuko’s attack sent Sanemi off balance, stumbling back as he brought his elbow down on her back. He restrained himself when he attacked her, not wanting to kill Yuko, but needing to use enough force to subdue her. Something caused him to trip, Himari, the girl having thrown herself around Sanemi’s legs in an attempt to help Yuko by tripping him. The young girl looked terrified, tears in her eyes, but even so she held on for dear life.
 
Yuko grunted when he slammed his elbow into her back, but refused to let go. Her fingers could almost get to the sheath; just a bit more and she could get it. When Sanemi stumbled, she looked in horror at Himari wrapped around his legs, "H-Himari, no, it isn't safe! Get back, please!"
