Destiny Ninja : Hyuga
My Input Name : Yuki Masaki
<< chapter 1 : Lost memories >>
Yuki : "ooh.." ( oh, i have a throbbing headache)
with dim awareness, i slowly opened my eyes. Then, something came into view
??? : "arrows!"
whiz whiz
??? : "ouch!"
Yuki : (?!)
countless number of arrows were flying about. soldiers were being hit by arrows and falling to the ground.
Yuki : (is this a battlefield?!)
i stared wide-eyed at the scene, not believing what i was seeing. (Why am i here?! and.. who am i...?) just then,
??? : "a woman!"
seize
(huh?!) suddenly, someone seized my arm!
??? : "don't just sit around here. you'll be killed!"
Yuki : "uh, who are you?"
Whiz! using his sword, the man quickly cut down an arrow right before my eyes
??? : "come, i'll explain later"
Yuki : "oh, no!"
The man lifted me onto his shoulder with one hand and started carrying me away. ( what?! where is he taking me?) carrying me on his shoulder, the man ran through the trees like the wind ( he moved so quickly with almost superhuman speed..who is this person?!)
???? : "damn.. we'll retreat for now!"
shouted the man in armor, and the soldiers left the field all at once
??? : "..."
after the enemy forces had withdrawn, i was carried before a young man who appeared to be of high rink. surrounding him were what seemed to be his aides
??? : "hyuga, who is this girl?"
Hyuga : "yoshitsune.. i found her sitting dazed on the battlefield, so i brought her here, sir"
Yuki : "...!" (yoshitsune..?!is this yoshitsune minamoto, the son of genji?!)
yoshitsune : "you look as if you know my name"
Yuki : "..yes"
i looked up at Yoshitsune and nodded
Yuki : "you are Yoshitsune MInamoto, the son of late Yoshitomo Minamoto"
Yoshitsune : "that is correct"
Yoshitsune slightly smiled
Yoshitsune : "then, you also know who our enemy is don't you?"
Yuki : "the heishi.." ( did i lose consciousness in the midst of the genji and heike battle?)
with his gaze fixed on me, Yoshitsune said
Yoshitsune : "i see. you seem fairly educated and those noble clothes you wear. you don't seem to be a
woman of low birth. why are you here?"
Yuki : "i don't know"
Hyuga : "you don't know?
Hyuga frowned at my reply
Yoshitsune : "then, what is your name?"
Yuki : "..."
while pressing my temples, i slowly said
Yuki : "yuki.. i think my name is Yuki"
?? : "you think?! what do you mean by "think"?"
Yoshitsune : "be quiet, Hyosuke"
with Yoshitsune word, the aide named Hyosuke shut up
Yoshitsune : "have you.. lost your memory?"
Yuki : "honestly, i do not anything. i do not remember anything.. even who i am or why i am here.
what i remember is only my name Yuki. Nothing else.."
??? : "yoshitsune, isn't this girl an assassin sent by heishi?"
One aide with keen eyes interrupted
??? : "pretending to have lost her memory, she might be trying to get close to us"
Yoshitsune : "Kazemasa, i don't think so"
Kazemasa : "nevertheless.."
Yoshitsune : "this gir;'s movements are not thise of a trained assassin, also.."
Yoshitsune peered into my face with his dark eyes
Yoshitsune : "these eyes speak the truth"
(yoshitsune..)
??? : "come, show me"
Yuki : "wow!"
One of the aides forcibly pulled my shoulder
??? : "the back of your head is swollen. it is not too serious, though"
Yuki : "ouch!"
the man pressed hard against the lump on my head and i let out a scream
Yoshitsune : "enya, don't be rough!"
Enya : "Yoshitsune, this girl could have fallen from a horse and hit her head. she may have lost her
memory temporarily because of that"
Yoshitsune : "that is possible, hyuga"
Hyuga : "indeed"
Yoshitsune : "i'll put her in your care. treat her injury after we return to our residence"
Hyuga : "are we going to take her to our residence?"
Yoshitsune : " we don't have the heart to leave her in this dangerous place, do we? when she recovers her
memory, we can just send her home"
Hyuga : "..."
Yoshitsune : "she might be a princess of a noble family. treat her with courtesy"
Hyuga : "yes, sir"
saying so, Hyuga took my hand and gently smiled
Hyuga : "you can ride my horse with me, Yuki"
i regained consciousness in a mountain at the outskirts of Kyoto. Then, we went down the mountain and returned to Kyoto. I was taken to Yoshitsune Residence
Yoshitsune : "Hyuga, the battle is still raging. In case of a night attack. sleep in the same room as the girl"
Hyuga : "yes, sir"
Yuki : "what?" (oh no.. in the same room with a man i met for the first time?)
Yoshitsune : "Yuki, i understand your confusion, but i'm responsible for the safety of people staying in my
residence. i have to return you safe to your parents"
Yuki : "yes"
Hyuga : "don't worry, Yuki. i'll be by your side yo protect you"
Kazemasa : "yoshitsune, i think that would be the best too. if we thought the girl were a heishi assassin"
Yoshitsune : "well, kazemasa, you're a suspicious man. being cautious isn't bad, however"
Yoshitsune gently smiled at me
Yoshitsune : "i doubt that you are an assassi. for today, have your inury treated and rest"
his smiled seemed to embrace everything around him. (it was even as if it melted my heart full of anxiety)
yuki : "yes, thank you. i'm sorry for causing you trouble"
Yoshitsune : "don't worry. when your memory comes back. i'll send you back to your home. Hyuga, you
know what to do"
Hyuga : "yes, sir. now, i'll take you to your room, Yuki"
Yuki : "well, Hyuga"
At my call, Hyuga looked back with no expression
Yuki : "i'm sorry for causing you trouble, too"
Hyuga : "so true. what a troublesome thing i picked up"
Yuki : "huh!?"
His tone was so cold and completely different than before. i stared at Hyuga in shocked silence
Hyuga : "yoshitsune is to kind. I wonder what will he do if your memory never returns. Kyoto is a large town
and there are hundred of noubles houses. it's impossible to return you to your home unless you
remember where it is"
Yuki : "..."
Hyuga : "your head.."
Yuki : "yes..?"
Hyuga : "show me your head. i'll treat your injury
Question :
I'm sorry [sweet love]
i'll do it myself
Yuki : "i'm sory"
Hyuga : "yoshitsune ordered it, so i have to treat the injury. come here"
Yuki : "oh!"
He grabbed me roughly by the arm and i winced involuntarily
Hyuga : "hmm, you like an innocent girl that has never known a man"
Yuki : "what..!"
Hyuga : "maybe you ran away from home because you didn't like a marriage proposal"
(when i've lost memory and am feeling uneasy, what a horrible thing to say..very different from Yoshitsune. Also, he was so polite in front of Yoshitsune)
Hyuga : "you've got a bump"
Hyuga pressed the back of my head with his finger
Yuki : "that's hurt!"
Hyuga : "it's a slight injury. don't get so excited"
Hyuga took some ointment out of a medicine chest and applied some to my head
Hyuga : "heal quickly. having to apply ointment every night is a bother"
Yuki : "..."
Hyuga : "Your reply?"
Yuki : "Ouch"
He slapped my head and i screamed again
Hyuga : "stop screaming"
Then, the door opened and Yoshitsune entered the room
Yoshitsune : "how are you, Yuki?"
Hyuga : "Yuki, are you alright?"
Then, Hyuga's expression immediately changed and he gently smiled at me
Hyuga : "it'd be nice if the ointment heals her quickly"
Yoshitsune : "The medicine made from the medical plants of Hyuga's village is very effective"
Saying this, Yoshitsune bent over and peered into my face
Yoshitsune : "you must be uneasy having lost your memory"
Yuki : "..."
Yoshitsune : "i can't restore your memory, but i can listen to you. if there is anything, you can come talk to
me"
Yuki : " yes. thank you very much"
i bowed deeply to Yoshitsune
Yoshitsune : "don't feel so obliged. You could be a high-ranking noble that i'm not allowed to talk to. as you
know, we were originally guards serving the nobility. However, the late Kiyomori Taira
expanded his power to ascend to a position surpassing the nobility. Then, the descendants of
Kiyomori have now become like nobles and are doing as they please"
(i recall that Kiyomori Taira defeated Yoritomo Minamoto the father of Yoshitsune. Is there also a personal grudge in Yoshitsune's fight against the Heishi?)
Yoshitsune : "strange. your face looks like it knows everything"
Yuki : "no, not at all"
(it is strange, however. Though i don't remember anything about myself, i retain knowledge of battles and politics)
Yoshitsune : "if you're a princess of high nobility, some thieves might have kidnapped you. you might have
then fled for your life. Surely, your parents are desperately looking for you. If so, your parents
will find you even if you can't recover your memory. Therefore, don't worry too much"
Yoshitsune gently placed his hand on my shoulder
Yoshitsune : "you can return to your family soon enough"
His gentle smile made me feel warm inside. (i'm sure people gather naturally around Yoshitsune)
Yoshitsune : "Hyuga, i place Yuki in your care"
Hyuga : "certainly. i'll assist Yuki so that she can live here without any inconvenience"
After Yoshitsune left, Hyuga heaved a sigh
Hyuga : "Yoshitsune walks so softly, i was surprised when the door opened suddenly. You're lucky. Being
pick up by kind Yoshitsune"
(picked up...)
Hyuga : "otherwise, you'd be meowing like a cat abandoned in the mountains"
(an abandoned cat.. why does he always make nasty remarks?)
Hyuga : "what!"
Being glared at by Hyuga, I shook my head side to side
Yuki : "no, it's nothing"
(right, i should be grateful for being able to stay here. Because i'm causing them trouble, i must not be selfish)
Yuki : "thank you for treating my injury"
Saying so, i bowed to Hyuga
Yuki : "i heard your medicine is made from medicinal plants from your village. Which village is that?"
Hyuga : "..."
Yuki : "is it a ninja village?"
At these words, Hyuga gave me a sharp look
Hyuga : "why do you think so?"
Yuki : "i thought so when i saw your outstanding moves in the battlefield"
Hyuga : "well, if i were slow like you, i would have been killed instanlty on the battlefield. it may be true that
you are not a Heishi assassin. You're right. i'm a ninja. A ninja from the Fire Village"
Saying so, Hyuga looked me straight in the eyes
Yuki : "all the other aiders are also ninjas, aren't they?"
Hyuga : "..."
Yuki : "well, i had an impression that they were different from ordinary soldiers"
Hyuga : "hmm.. you seem smart for a noble princess"
Yuki : "are noble princesses supposed to be dull?"
Hyuga : "and you are impertinent, too"
Hyuga stared at me coldly
Hyuga : "but your smartness can kill you"
Yuki : "...."
Hyuga : "we are now in the middle of the war. You'd better live a life of a noble princess without thinking
about anything. because you are going back home when you regain memory, and you'll no longer
have anything to do with us"
then, even after going to bed, i couldn't sleep at all. why don't i remember anything about myself? why can't i remember even my own home and family? Then,
Hyuga : "hey, you"
Hyuga spoke to me. I was startled but ready
Yuki : "y..yes"
Hyuga : "i'll tell you one thing. you take care of your own affair by yourself. i'm not your babysitter"
Yuki : "yes, i know that"
Hyuga : "are you sure? Noble princesses have their maids do everything, don't they?"
*flashback*
Hyuga : "i'll make an effort so that Yuki can live comfortably here"
He sounds different from when he spoke to me before. Hyuga's attitude completely changes depending on whether he is with Yoshitsune or not
Hyuga : "and you protect yourself by yourself. Protecting you is not my duty"
Yuki : "..i understand"
(That's right. i was only rescued by the favor of Yoshitsune. To Hyuga, i'm nothing but a nuisance. I have to protect myself by myself) I gave myself a tight hug to fight my insecure feelings.
Next morning. When i woke up, Hyuga was gone. I got dressed and went out to the garden
Enya : "hi"
(well, i remember this man was called enya)
Yuki : "good morning"
Enya : "did you sleep well?"
Yuki : "yes, sort of"
He suddenly bent his head to mine and i backed away
Yuki : "well.."
Enya : "you can't pull the wool over my eyes. i can tell by your face that you didn't sleep enough. Then, Enya
gave my shoulder's a quick squeeze
Enya : "you should have come to my room. you could have had a sweet dream in my arms, don't you think?"
Yuki : "let go, please!"
Enya : "hey, aren't you thrilled when touched by me? you're a rare girl"
(enya seems to be accustomed to women. Maybe he is playing with a lot of women)
Enya : "don't worry"
As if reading my heart, Enya put his hand on my head
Enya : "I won't really touch you. Yoshitsune warned me not to"
Yuki : "yoshitsune?"
Enya : "yeah, he said he wouldn't care if i played around as long as i didn't touch you Yuki"
(Yoshitsune is really concerned about me)
Enya : "Yoshitsune is a wonderful person, isn't he?"
Yuki : "yes. He is bothered to come to my room yesterday to encourage me"
Enya : "he always treats people warmly regardless of their rank. even among great samurai, there's nobody
who can do the same things as Yoshitsune"
From Enya's words, i could sense that he respected Yoshitsune from the bottom of his heart
Yuki : "i suppose people gather around Yoshitsune because of his personal magnetism"
Enya : "yes, and that's why he's been able to have fought and survived this far with his small army. Despite
that it's been only a few months since the imperial court issued an order to defeat the Heishi"
Yuki : "there was the power of you guys behind the major advancement of Yoshitsune army"
Enya : "hmmm.."
Enya stared at me with curiosity
Enya : "there are probably few princesses of noble families that know battles and politics so well"
Yuki : "....."
Hyuga told me last night
*flashback*
Hyuga : "you should live like a princess of a noble family without thinking about anything"
(if i was a princess of a noble family, i was probably living in luxury thinking of battles as something in a distant world. while receiving domestic training to prepare for marriage in the future, why am i well informed about battles and politics?)
Enya : "now, have you also found out who we are?"
Yuki : "ninja, right?"
Enya : "that's correct"
Enya nodded and grinned
Enya : "but i'm no ordinary ninja. i'm the best ninja in the fire Village"
(The fire village, that means Enya is from the same village as Hyuga)
Enya : "in addition, i'm the chief son and have good lineage,. above all, i'm extremely popular with women"
Yuki : "is..is that so?"
Enya : "yeah. thats why i couldnt accept the law of the ninja despite being a ninja"
Yuki : "law of the ninja?"
Enya : "you carry out your employer's commands even at the risk of your life. That is the law of the ninja"
Yuki : "....."
(you carry out your employer's commands even at the risk of your life. That is the law of the ninja)
Enya : "i always thought why do i have to risk my life for another person. However, when i met Yoshitsune,
i thought i would be willing to devote myself to this person"
Yuki : "i only met Yoshitsune last night but i feel i understand what you say"
Enya : "ah, you seem to be a good judge of people. if i look closely, you've a cute face"
Smiling happily, Enya gazed at my face
servant girl : "enya!"
A pleasant looking servant woman just passing by called out
Enya : "what is it, Ofuku?"
Ofuku : "don't torment Yuki"
Enya : "i'm not i'm only teasing her"
Ofuku :"Yuki, i heard about you from Yoshitsune. He said you're a very important guest"
Yuki :"no, i'm only dependent on Yoshitsune. Is there anything i can do to help? i'm in his care.
so i'd like to at least repay the favor"
Ofuku : "but.."
Enya : "Ofuku, you have my permission. Have her help"
Ofuku : "enya, is it alright for you to give permission?"
Enya : "it's alright. i'm Yoshitsune's most trusted aide. Beside, its also better for her to keep herself busy
doing something"
Yuki : "yes, please let me help!"
Ofuku : "i'd appreciate your help, but those fancy clothes"
Enya : "then, lend her some of your clothes"
Ofuku : "what?! is she OK with the clothes of a commoner like me?"
Question :
would you lend me some of your clothes?
i'm fine like this
Yuki : "Ofuku, if it's alright, would you lend me some of your clothes?"
Ofuku : "of course! if it's OK with you. i'd be happy to lent you my clothes Yuki"
Enya : "that's nice"
Enya patted my head
Enya : "i'm impressed that a princess of nobility like you offered help voluntarily. get along well with Ofuku.
Ofuku is a big eater, but she's good natured"
Ofuku : "a big eater is too much!"
Yuki : "ha.ha"
while listening to the two talk, i realized i was laughing from the bottom of my heart since first coming to this residence.
After borrowing the clothes from Ofuku, i returned to my room and took off the clothes i had been wearing. (looking at these fine clothes i had been wearing, could i really a princess of a noble family?) while i was putting my arm into a sleeve of a new clothes, a door behind me suddenly opened
Yuki : "Oh!"
i was about to scream, but a huge hand covered my mouth
?? : "quiet!"
(this voice?!)
Kazemasa : "i'm sure you're a Heishi assassin"
(hanzo?!)
His tone was so cold and completely different than before. i stared at Hyuga in shocked silence
Hyuga : "yoshitsune is to kind. I wonder what will he do if your memory never returns. Kyoto is a large town
and there are hundred of noubles houses. it's impossible to return you to your home unless you

Ofuku is a big eater, but she's good natured"
Ofuku : "a big eater is too much!"
Yuki : "ha.ha"
while listening to the two talk, i realized i was laughing from the bottom of my heart since first coming to this residence.
After borrowing the clothes from Ofuku, i returned to my room and took off the clothes i had been wearing. (looking at these fine clothes i had been wearing, could i really a princess of a noble family?) while i was putting my arm into a sleeve of a new clothes, a door behind me suddenly opened
Yuki : "Oh!"
i was about to scream, but a huge hand covered my mouth
?? : "quiet!"
(this voice?!)
Kazemasa : "i'm sure you're a Heishi assassin"
(hanzo?!)
