The Game Chapter 1
Kenshin was returning home from his visit with Sanosuke. The young man had admitted his feelings for Kenshin a little too late this time. Kaoru had already set the wedding date and was busy preparing. Kenshin knew he loved the tall fighter, but he also loved Kaoru just as much. After all the confessions were said, Kenshin and Sanosuke proved their love for each other. When it was time for Kenshin to leave, he had told Sanosuke that he would not be able to show that kind of affection towards him any longer. Sanosuke had looked hurt, but understood and let Kenshin go.
The short rurouni had reached the dojo in good time, although it was close to midnight. The crickets had started chirping and a crescent moon hung high in the sky. It cast a ghostly shadow over everything as he entered through the main gate. Entering the living area of the house silently, he approached Kaoru's room. A muffled gasp echoed off the walls and Kenshin quickly went to Kaoru's room. He opened the paper door just a little when he saw something very unexpected: Saitou and Kaoru in bed together.
Tell me exactly what am I supposed to do Now that I have allowed you to beat me
Shocked, Kenshin took a few steps back and the loose floorboard creaked under his weight. He quickly dashed into a safe hiding place and awaited Saitou's departure. The leader of the Shinsengumi squad three left quickly and Kaoru stayed in her room. Kaoru could be heard tidying up the bed and lying back down. The hitokiri in Kenshin started to bubble up beneath the surface. He fought down the beast inside him and told himself that he would take revenge later. There was a faint gold shimmering to his eyes as he went to his room and went to sleep.

The next morning, Kenshin did not do any of his chores and decided to sleep in. Kaoru came into his room and threw a broom at him. He woke up and grabbed it, a fierce look in his eyes. She gasped and took a step back, then he calmed down. "Gomen Kaoru-dono, I was having a nightmare de gozaru yo." She just left the room quietly, at bit stunned by his look. She should be... after what she's done...
Kenshin proceeded to start his chores and went about his normal daily routine. Yahiko begged him to train with him. To Yahiko's delight, Kenshin said yes, but did not go easy with the boy. By the end of their training session, Yahiko has small bruises all over his body, but he didn't complain. Kenshin had trained with him after all.
The ex-hitokiri felt like the world around him was muffled in cotton. He could see no details aside from people. Deciding it was in his best interest, he left and went to go see Sanosuke. Kaoru had crossed him and she would not be in his good graces ever again.
Do you think that we could play another game Maybe I could win this time
Kenshin found Sanosuke deep in thought on his futon. This was an usual sight as he entered the already ajar doorway. "Sano...." His voice was a little deeper than usual and that startled the tall fighter.
"Kenshin, what happened?" Sanosuke could always tell when there was something seriously wrong with Kenshin. He could see the hitokiri laughing underneath the rurouni mask.
"Kaoru... has betrayed us..." His words became darker as the hint of gold appeared in his eyes. "She was with Saitou." The rurouni slowly approached Sano with firm and deliberate steps. His face showed he was in no mood to talk about the possibilities of how or why. Kenshin looked deadly.
"I understand... you can't forgive her..." It was no longer a question as Sanosuke had hoped. Indigo eyes locked with chocolate ones and all seemed to become clear what Kenshin would do. He could see that a piece of Kenshin's heart had shattered. "I'm still here for you...."
Leaning over Sanosuke, he violently kissed him on the lips. His anger and passion obvious through the force of the kiss. When Kenshin drew back, his eyes were blue again. "We'll see about that Sagara..." Leaving Sanosuke a little scared and confused, he left the man's apartment and went back towards the Kamiya dojo, trying to calm himself.
