Momiji spent the rest of his morning exploring after Ungaikyō had ran away from him. 

Why was he scared of the Katanashu anyways? It felt like he knew the answer but at the same time he didn't. So confusing...

After he finished all the exploring he wanted to do he made his way back to the station. Maybe there was something for to do there. Training, paperwork..as long as it helped pass the time. The Katanashu were pretty laid back and barely did their actual duties. Well, except for Hanabusa and Aoi.

As he approached the station, he heard someone running up behind him. Actually, it sounded like more than one person running. Turning around he saw Kamaitachi and Onibi. They were planning on sneaking by to get into the human world...again.

"Stop there you two" Momiji said, placing a hand on his sword.

"Eh?! We got caught already?!" Onibi pouted.

"Seriously..? We didn't even make it to the entrance of the station!"

"I'm not going to let you two by, so hurry and leave. I'm sure there's plenty for you to do here in your world"

"Tch..f-fine! But that doesn't mean we'll stop trying" Kamaitachi said stubbornly.

After that the two took off back down the path.

"You handled that well.." 

"How long were you standing there Madoka?"

"I just got here as soon as those two took off. Why bother stopping them? They don't listen"

Momiji simply sighed. "Unlike you I'll try to fulfill my duties as a Katanashu"

Madoka shrugged as they walked back into the station. What they didn't know was that Onibi and Kamaitachi had been watching them secretly. Looking over to the weasel yokai. Onibi could see a light blush on Kamaitachi's face.

"Do you like one of those two or something?"

"Huh?! N-No way!" he quickly exclaimed.

He never seemed like that around Momiji. So maybe that blond Katanashu..

"You like that other guy don't you!"

"Like I said, I don't! B-Besides I don't even know his name or anything about him. Let alone interacted with him before!" Kamaitachi said, looking away. Though his face was still flushed in embarrassment. Did he really like someone he just saw?

"Eheh, maybe you had love at first sight?~"

"O-Okay! Fine! Maybe I do like him! But it's not like either of us can help each others with this topic. You can't even tell Kyuubi-no-kitsune your own feelings"

"I'm working on it! Let's plan for now, come on!"

. . .

Sitting on the branch he was before Momiji had found him, Ungaikyō looked at his mirror. Watching as Momiji walked around his room, occasionally looking through papers. There was even some little paper dolls flying about helping him. Interacting with the Katanashu was one thing, but watching them through his mirror was another.

"Heeey! Ungaikyō!" 

Jumping a little, he looked down to see the weasel yokai, Kamaitachi. He gave him a questioning look, tilting his head a bit.

"Can come down? I want to ask you something"

Thinking for a moment, he hopped down to see what the other wanted.

"Can you show me someone through your mirror?" he asked.

"Why..?"

"B-Because..! I want to see them!" 

"...Fine..Who specifically?"

"I don't know his name. I just know he's a Katanashu, he's the blond one!" Kamaitachi replied.

A Katanashu..why was he so interested in one of them? Regardless it took him a minute to find the person Kamaitachi wanted to see. Once he did, the weasel yokai immediately said 'Him!', staring happily at the mirror's reflection of the Katanashu.

"He seems so serious, I wonder if he's always like that" he heard Kamaitachi mumble. 

"So..why did you want to see him.."

"W-Well..If I'm going to be honest, it's because I like him..G-Got a problem with that..?!" he gave Ungaikyō a serious glance.

"Why not talk to him then...You don't seem bothered by the Katanashu like I am.."

"I can't do that! It's basically well known me and Onibi cause trouble for them..! Ugh..there has to be some way for me to interact with him..Even a little!"

Ungaikyō stared at his mirror for a minute, looking at the blond Katanashu. "..I'll..help. But give me some time to think of something...Come by tomorrow, that'll be enough time"

"Eh? Really? Okay, thanks! I'll bring you ramen in return, you like ramen right?"

"..I like instant ramen but..if you're offering..." 

"Right! See you tomorrow!"

Kamaitachi seemed so happy to hear that Ungaikyō was willing to help him with trying to interact with Madoka. As soon as he was out of sight, Ungaikyō immediately went back to looking at Momiji through the mirror.

"..If only I could talk to him..But we're enemies.."

. . .

Peck peck peck

"Ow. Don't peck me to get my attention" Momiji said, taking the paper the Shikigami had held out to him. "If the others worked on paperwork too, it wouldn't be this piled up.."

He had ordered the Shikigami to help him organize the papers by handing him incomplete paperwork. That way the ones that were completed were in their own pile. Unfortunately that pile was quite small compared to the incomplete pile.

"There really isn't a lot that goes on around here. It seems so peaceful that we don't have much to do. Aside from some paperwork from the Capital" 

A Shikigami began pecking him again to hand him a paper. Sighing as he took it, he noticed something.

"Wasn't there three of you? Where'd the third go..? I guess it doesn't matter, we're almost done organizing anyways" he said, shrugging it off.

It was still strange, the Shikigami wouldn't of just left on its own. Not unless he ordered it to. Oh well, he can just get another Shikigami.

Once all the paperwork was properly organized, he dismissed the Shikigami. He'd just work on filling out some of the paperwork later. There was no rush. 

Leaving his room, he made his way outside of the station. It might be good to patrol around the station in case Onibi and Kamaitachi tried to sneak by again. What he didn't expect was to see Madoka walking around though.

"Hello Madoka..what are you doing?"

Madoka looked over to him, "Nothing. Just walking around. Going on patrol?"

"Yes, in case those two troublemakers come by"

"Why not just let them through, it's not like we can stop them everytime" Madoka shrugged.

"We could if we actually did our duties. By the way Madoka, have you had your Shikigamis suddenly disappear on you?"

"..No? Why? Did that happen to you?"

"Yeah, one just vanished. It's strange- ah.."

Madoka looked at him confused only to look behind him and to where Momiji was staring. In the bushes was Kamaitachi spying on them. Once they caught him, he immediately took off.

"..Was he spying know us..?" Momiji asked.

"Don't know. Anyways I'm heading back inside" he replied, waving his hand as he walked back toward the entrance of the station.

This was going to take some getting used to, with how laid back half of the Katanashu was.
