There were rumbling of rebellion groups already starting to form from what Kaito heard while he was helping to feed and give drinks and aid to people in one of the towns Kaito feels that, they will probably be wiped out but he can't do anything about it he wasn't here to stop a new rebellion. He was still here to treat and help those that got displaced by the fighting and those that lost loved ones along the way, as well as their homes, fields and livelihoods. Kaito felt like he was at fault here as he had helped to cut into this country, he knows that in the bigger picture he wasn't probably a huge part of why these people were suffering but he knows that he needed to help them all the same. He kept helping those in need but he knows that he is only one person and he wondered if Yuurei was also wrist deep in helping people.
Kaito had been on the way to some grand fest or party for the victory but of course he wasn't going to just ignore the people that littered the streets broken and in pain, Kaito is starting to wonder if he was too soft or if he was just raised to have and act on his caring heart his grandmother and master had tried to keep him from this kind of life but here he was as he was stubborn and wanted to prove himself that he wasn't some little helpless whelp but in the end he still feels helpless and unable to really get past the troubles that had been here and stuck in front of him. He sees a few children that were already begging for money and he wonders if they were orphans or if they were just street children using the war as a cover to get money and food. He was not one to really judge but he knows that children like that are a normal part of a city and that they need to handle them like normal people or someone might get stabbed.
Kaito went over and gave them some money in their tin and then the children hurried over to another man that was hurt and sitting against a wall with a tin of his own and they put their money in the other mans tin. Kaito now wonders if they were begging for him or if he was the ring leader that they owe a bit of their take for the day to. Kaito walked to the man who looked up at him and Kaito wondered something as he met eyes with the man as his eyes seemed kind not evil. Kaito kneeled down and the children got in front of him and begged him not to kill the man as he saved them from a burning building but he had been one of the shoguns men not one of the ones that Kaito had fought be side and Kaito laughed softly then spoke. "I aim no harm to him I aim to help him as he did you."
