"When Kir gets back, tell him I want to see him." Miyu said smiling at the thought of seeing Kir again.

Meanwhile on the trail back, China is very sick.

*they get to the akechi clan* (they ahvent met them yet) *the akechi clan medicine man tends to u and the rest of the group wiat for u to see the leader before reporting*

The medicine man informs China that she is pregnant.

*every1 congratulates blade and he chuckles nervously, although sai is unresponsive as usual and isei is thinking if a baby would affect strategy in combat*

"I will be fine Isei. I know you are worried. But don't be. I can still handle myself fairly well." China tried to calm him.

*isei* "i mean waht if say the baby cried while uw ere out fighting..or training some new recruits or it was taken hostage....plus this is the first baby born in the clan what would the side effects be?"
