'Bloody walls, bloody streets, bloody town, bloody war' Kaoru though as she walked down a street in Kyoto at night.

Kaoru stopped, "Is this all that there is to this stupid bloody war?"

Her face frowned, "What am I doing here anyway? Mother and father are gone and the dojo is losing it's students who want to fight in this war? I hat… Why am I talking to myself in the middle of the night?"

Kaoru slapped herself on the forehead and turned around walking again, "Screw this, I'm going back Misao's house before I go crazy out here'

-Meanwhile-

'Last one. Too easy' Battousai wiped his sword clean of the blood and sheathed it. 'Another night. Another job, nothing new'

"Is this all that there is to this stupid bloody war?"

Battousai's face remained blank at the statement, but he wondered who shout something like that in the middle of night, in a town of filled with war, with people killing each other around every corner.

He moved in shadows, silent always. He came to a street with a raven hair and blue eyed girl, who just slapped herself in the forehead and turned and started walking away.

'I guess it was her was yelled that. Not my problem and will not be my problem. I have to report to Katsura now, but he may find this statement to be interesting' Battousai stared at the girl one more time with his cold amber eyes and left back to the inn. Not knowing that they would meet, very soon.
