Brass Ring Interlude 4: When The Cherry Blossom Finds The Wind
Onna-Bugeisha exited a simple tunnel and entered her basement. She was fully armored, but her paired katana were sheathed. While she hated sneaking into her home, she and Kaneda had decided it was necessary if she were to remain with CAPES, providing her with a haven none of her enemies would know of. She smiled as she remembered him pulling out a shovel to help dig the tunnel even as the Steel Amazon had appeared to help her dig it. She had had to broker a compromise, suggesting that if he could make them tea with a light snack that would be sufficient for his share of the project. He had acquiesced, and the two women finished the tunnel, including supports, within a couple of hours. The strawberry teacakes he served that day were still her favorite. He sat back and let the two women enjoy being who they were while he cheered them on.
