"Sounds good. I'll stay here with her and Irohahime..." "Hai." Kojurou gently handed the baby to Masamune and bowed, "Congratulations, Masamune-sama." "Arigatou." Masamune smiled proudly
Megohime closed her eyes fully and her face went slack, she had fallen asleep rather easily. Jingu bowed to Masamune, then followed Kojurou out of the room.
"Maybe with a daughter, he'll learn to control himself better." Kojurou said, "Kami-sama knows that if he were to have a son, he would go about things with reckless abandon."
Megohime held a bundled Irohahime against her chest, her back against a large Sakura tree that overlooked the estate on a hill. She watched her daughter sleep, gently playing with the small tuft of black hair that was starting to grow on the baby's head.
"Its a beautiful day out today~" A familiar dark voice said from behind her, "And so close yet so far from home~ no one would be able to hear you or see you should something happen~ wouldn't that be just terrible~?"
Megohime tensed at the voice and turned, quickly getting to her feet. "Who-" Her eyes flashed and narrowed. "No... It can't be..." She held Irohahime tighter.
