The ship had finally stopped at the docks of London. The very long sail from Japan to London was a tough one and Mizu was eager to get off this ship. Mizu had Fowler released from the ships cells, letting him out for the first time in months. He definitely wasn't happy about the situation, this wasn't supposed to be how things ended. He was supposed to kill the lass and be the new Shogun of Japan, opening its doors and flooding it with priests and European culture. Now he was Mizus tourist, pretty much held at gun point to lead her to the men she was supposed to kill. They had gone over this plan for the entire time they were on the damn ship. He was even "kind" enough to teach her basic English, enough to get her through a small conversation anyway.

The plan was to meet an old business partner, the one who would ship the guns illegally to him while he was in japan. They'd pay him a visit and ask where Skeffington and Routely were. After all, this mystery man was illegally shipping them all of the illegal goods all 4 of them needed to sell in Japan, well, when they were all there."Now, we need to wait here at the Docks for him. He's supposed to be coming back from his trip to Spain. We got lucky,"Fowler voice was full of annoyance and sarcasm. The both of them probably smelt rancid. Mizu could hear some of the people around them talk about her attire, she was still wearing the clothes she's had since forever. Everyone here wore such different clothing. She felt very out of place.

Finally, after what felt like forever, the man got of his ship and made his way to her and Fowler."Abijah Fowler, I haven't seen you since you left to Japan. I never actually expected you to make it back here,"The man had a very condescending tone. He doesn't bow, or shake their hands, which Mizu was told was the normal way of greeting someone in most of Europe."Let's get you two to my home, cleaned up first, and then we can talk."that pretty much confirmed their hygiene status. The man turned to Mizu,"I'm Gus Ford. I have a special request for you once we get down to business."

The ride there was uncomfortable, none of them wanted to be near eachother. Once they arrived at the huge mansion the carriage stopped and the doors opened. Mizu got out and looked up at the grand house. This style of house wasn't what she was used to seeing. The culture shock she was feel with each step in this country was enough to make her feel neasuous."Let's get you two clean. Let my maids take care of you and then they'll bring you to me when I am ready to talk."The maids usher them both away from eachother and to different bathrooms. Mizu was panicking a little, once in the bathroom she pushed the maid away from her and out the door."Oh okay, sir. I'll wait out here until you're done."Mizu sighs and takes off her clothes. Sinking into the already prepared bath. She looks to her side to see a set of clothes. They looked a little strange.

Her bath was over, she hadn't felt this clean in a long time. She picked up the clothes that were laid out with a small frown on her face. It took her a really long time to figure out how to get everything on, she even had to ask for help with the maid. Of course, she hid her breasts and sex from the maid and tried to be polite about the situation. Once she had the clothes on she felt silly. She did not want to be in these clothes. She definitely wanted to just clean the ones she was wearing before and change back into them later. The maid rushed her to sit with Fowler who had an evil smirk on his face,"You look like a true **lad** now."Mizu just scoffed and stood next to the sofa rather than sitting. She didn't want to be next him.

Mizu felt eyes on her. She took a glance around the room and found a girl, peeping around the corner at the top of the stairs. The girl looked around the same age as her. Mizu raised an eyebrow and turned to fully face her which seemed to make the girl flinch. Was she scared of her?"That's Ford's daughter. I wouldn't engage, she's very protected by her father. Just ignore her before you get us in trouble, yeah?"Fowlers voice enough to shake Mizu of her thoughts. She wanted to be done with this.

The long wait finally ended and Ford finally let the two of them into his study."Time to get started with our arrangements,"Fords voice was deep and intense. This meeting was going to be long.

Mizu let out a long groan when she left the office. This revenge plan was going to be months of waiting for one event where only one of the men would be attending. Revenge was long curse that still ignited her. She'll play this game. She had to, she swore it to herself.

The deal was that Mizu would act as Ford's new butler. She was to stay by his side at almost, if not all, times. Only when he was at work was she allowed to be alone; even then, she was expected to accommodate to his daughter and his wife and do whatever they asked. This was like one big nightmare. Fowler was to lay low. He was pretty much locked in the basement and brought food during certain times of the day.

Mizu eventually found a routine in it though. She'd go through her day as a butler and then during the night she'd train. She didn't want to get rusty, after all.

Mizu was sitting outside in the garden. She watched as one of the maids picked the flowers the young lady demanded they pick. Mizu was to sit there and keep them company. The personal maid stood next mizu with an apologetic smile. The maid that was picking the flowers finally stood up straight, and with shakey hands, handed the young woman the flowers."You may go now,"she waved off the poor maid and turned to Mizu."Do you have flowers like these in Japan?"The flowers were Marigolds. This was how most of their interactions were. The young woman was very curious, asking questions about Mizu's homeland by demanding that Mizu spent time with her. Mizu let out a small annoyed sigh,"Yes."Mizu's voice was devoid of any emotion. She wanted this day to end that way she could begin her training. The sound of a bell could be heard in the distance. It was meant to call the young woman back to her mother."It seems you have to go."She narrowed her eyes slightly. She watched as the young woman crossed her arms and starred off in the direction of the mansion."You should get going before your mother gets upset."
