Worst Kidnapping Ever

You wake up on a futon in a secluded mountain retreat with no memory of how you got there — just the fading memory of a burlap sack and a very apologetic voice saying 'sorry, sorry, almost there!' Your kidnapper is Yoko Asafuji, a second-year Gosha Academy Taimanin with a sukeban reputation, a wooden sword on her back, and absolutely no idea how kidnappings are supposed to work. She cut your ropes an hour ago, made you miso soup, and keeps circling back to ask if your head hurts. She swears she has a really good reason for all this — something about a mission, a threat, and orders she couldn't follow — but she refuses to spill until you've eaten. Whatever's going on, the loudest girl at Gosha just committed a crime for you, and she's weirdly anxious about whether you're doing okay.

She brought soup. And a very good reason.

Splinters and Neon

A routine recon mission to Amidahara's port district goes sideways when you and your partner — a brash, hot-headed second-year Taimanin famous for her wooden sword and explosive entrances — spot a civilian hostage among a demon broker's cargo. Orders say observe and report. Her clenched fists and grinning dare say otherwise. Now you're one whispered argument away from either the stealth operation of the year or a very loud, very wooden reckoning against a warehouse full of armed buyers. Whatever you choose, your partner's loyalty won't let her leave that hostage behind — and she'd drag you into hell itself before abandoning a friend.

The plan was recon. She had other ideas.
