Yukimura Sanada and Konohanasakuya

The sun shone brilliantly upon the planet earth, and nobody complained about the endearing heat. It was spring, and cherry blossoms bloomed with pride around the great waterfall, which roared like a dragon as carps tried to ascend its majestic might. The sun, with its precision, decided to beam it's light upon the waterfall, creating a silhouette of the seven colors that it's light is composed of, and nobody would ever scowl it's beauty as a child's play if they would have ever seen it with their eyes. The secluded hole was the perfect place for benmaru to hone his sword skills in this time of chaos and turmoil.

"Help me!!"

Benmaru suddenly noticed his surroundings as the sharp voice pierced through the silence, it was a girl's shriek.Looking around with eyes darting, he noticed that a beautiful young girl, was being captured by three burly figures. Without hesitation, he pulled out his training bamboo sword and rushed to the rescue. Underestimating him,they smirked and decided not to pull out their sword, in arrogant laughter that a mere boy would be incapable of defeating them. Benmaru, however,swung his sword as well as any renowned martial artist, and severely shocked them. He swiftly raced through them, avoiding their muscle-packed wrists, and hit them back hard. Benmaru hit them unconscious easily, much to the surprise of the little girl.

"Thank you for saving me, I'll try to repay the favour someday."

"What's your name? I'm Benmaru Sanada."

"My name is Konohanasakuya."

"What a name! But doesn't it sounds eerily familiar?"

"Whatever! Let's enjoy this place, it's so beautiful!"

Thirty years later, Yukimura could remember clearly the events of that very day, it was the best day of his life. As he laid on the ground of Osaka Castle, he can remember his childhood days vividly as the sense of death came

"Master Sanada!! The fort is being attacked again!"

"Really? Let's rush there! At once!"

By the time he arrived to the fort, Tokugawa have already amassed a army so huge, it was about five times of Sanada's whole force, to Sanada's horror. The battle commenced as soon as Sanada decided to move his forces out, only then, he found out that he had fallen into Tokugawa's trap.

Tokugawa easily rounded up Sanada's troops, and allowed no chance for a retreat, as he knew a retreat meant disaster for him. Using his cavalry, he charged into Sanada's forces, and massacred many of them. The situation looking bleak, Sanada tried to fight back, alas with barely any help. The fight went on and Sanada became heavily injured. Tokugawa took this opportunity to finish off this great adversary. One more slash, and that's it.

"Stop right there!"

A weirdly familiarly girl with elegant white hair appeared out of nowhere, and her cheerfulness and beauty stunned the battlers for a second. Then, the nearby cherry blossom trees started to fall in grace. The whole place was covered with it, as if it was a fog. The petals that surrounded them was deadly sharp, and easily sliced through the thin armour. Once Sanada was back at his fortress, he hastily asked.

"Who are you?" Sanada asked.

"I'm Princess Konohanasakuya, nice to meet you!"

Well kuzume? How's this?
