He nodded, "Yes."

Yuki still didn't feel that comfortable looking at him.
Even though he was not human, he was still a member of her family. She couldn't just turn her back on him.
At their not so quick pace, they arrived at the main Shiba residence in about a half hour.
Yuki walked up the path and was greeted by several of the servants garbed entirely in black.
"Tell Jii I have arrived and I've brought someone he'll wish to meet."

He walked after her, "I'm not a Gedou," he said.

"Then how do you explain..that?"

"My father fell to Gedou, but retained enough humanity...for a time. I was conceived after he had fallen, so some Gedou blood flows within me, but I am not a Gedou."

She wasn't sure what to say in return, but luckily Jii had arrived.
"Ah, Shiba-sama," he greeted, "Is this the person you said I should meet..?"
She nodded, "Jii, I introduce you to my ancestor, Shiba Sakurai."
"..." he merely stared at them, not saying a word.

Sakurai gave him a bow, "It's a difficult story to explain," or rather, be taken at face value, he assumed.

"I know of a Shiba named Sakurai, but he lived a very long time ago," said Jii, "Do you have any proof to back up this claim of yours?"

"I don't know what history has said of me," he told Jii, "So I don't know. I have my fire Mojikara, a Shodophone, and my battojutsu specialization."

He stroked his chin, "That is good proof, but tell me - couldn't you just be a spy made to believe he was Shiba Sakurai? Our enemies are powerful and we know a Mojikara user is among their ranks. Every possibility must be consider especially if you are a potential enemy to the Shiba house."
"A Mojikara user?!" Yuki stared intensely at Jii, "Why haven't I been told about this..?"

"...how much do you know of my father?"

"I am not a Shiba so I am not told everything about their long family history, but I do pay close attention to the whispers of the servants who have served the house for generations my own family included. In fact I have an account written by my ancestor during the Restoration mentions your father and his..inhumanity."

He unbuttoned his shirt and turned around, revealing the crest of the Gedoushu on his shoulderblade, "I was sired after my father fell. This is part of me now, to signify the Gedoushu blood running through my veins."

Jii stood there silent for a moment, "I see, but this still doesn't answer my question of where your loyalties lie."

"They lie with the Shinkengers," he said.
