My writing is just for pleasure and I do not make a profit.
Authors note: This is my second Sano/Megumi story I've written. It's a musical... I don't mean a songfic, but a musical. It has a few parts with songs in it, but it's mostly a Story line. Some song parts will be chapters apart so be patient, its hard to find enough songs to fit the story line. I might not use the whole song ether, and they are mostly country songs. Hope you like it! My idea for this fic was the fact that there is a very small chance of someone in 1880's Japan to travel the world and NOT come back with SOME kind of sickness. See if you can guess what's wrong with then rooster. Those darn mosquitos!
I Lost You Once: A Sano/Megumi story
Prologue
It was just another warm midsummer day at the Kamiya Dojo. Kenshin was sitting on the porch with a letter in hand and an excited face that matched the ones that surrounded him.
"He's coming back?" Yahiko asked, eyes still glued to the letter as he looked over the rurouni's shoulder. Kenshin scanned the parchment one more time, taking in the news.
Hello! Long time no, well, write I guess. Anyway, I'm in America at the moment, and I'm getting ready to leave soon. Guess where I'm going next.
Japan!
That's right, I'm coming home! I'm getting tired of all this traveling stuff.
Besides I heard Tani finally kicked the bucket, about time.
I'm leaving in a few days, so I should show up in about a month from when you get this. See you soon!

"It seems so, de gozaru" He said after reading the letter once again. The thought of his best friend finally coming home was wonderful, but a little overwhelming. After all, it had been five years.
"So I guess the rooster is finally coming home," Megumi said, taking the letter to read it for herself. She had been visiting from Aizu for a few days now, and had decided to stay for a few more weeks once she saw how much more work Genzai-sensei had since she had left.
"I can't wait to see him again!" Kaoru exclaimed shifting a sleeping Kenji in her lap. "When he comes back we'll have a big dinner to celebrate!"
"I just hope you don't scare him away with you cooking. He'll probably think he had a better chance in Americ-"
THWAP
"Itaiiiii! What was that for? I was just warning Busu!" Yahiko sat rubbing the lump on his head delivered by Kaoru's bokken.
"What did you call me Yahiko-CHAN?"
"Don't call me '-chan'! I'm fifteen!"
Megumi handed the letter back to Kenshin, her eyes still glued to it. "I just hope he took care of his hand while he was away" she said through Kaoru and Yahiko's insults and yells. "I worked hard on that thing..."
Kenshin smiled.
A/N:
Well here's the first chapter! Er, it's a little short nn' I promise
that the rest will be a lot longer. Besides, this is just a prologue,
so of course it's going to be short!
Anyways, I'll be done with the next chapter soon. Please review! Flames are welcome!
