I woke up to find myself bundled up in a futon. I lay still as I tried to remeber. I sat up with a jolt only to wince and look down. White bandages tied firmly around my stomache were beginning to absorb my crimson blood I had unleashed by my sudden movement. No doubt I had ripped open some stiches.
What happened flowed back to me. It was storming and I was making my way across the rope bridge, when I heard a loud roar. I looked up to see a tidal wave hit me, knocking me off the bridge. My senses were overridden and my survival instincts broke in. However, a tree trunk hit my stomach leaving me gasping, and of course the water came rushing in. To end my suffering something hit me in the head.
Now the question was where was I and who did this for me. I looked up as I heard the shoji door scrape open. The light flowed in blinding my senses momentarily. I heard a gasp followed by some padded foot steps.
" Oh your awake. I brought you some miso soup and green tea." My vision cleared slightly to make out a petit form clothed in an kimono place a tray down next to me with a clatter. "No doubt you'll be hungry. You've been asleep for three days since I found you." At this I realized I was starving and his stomach grumbling. " I also noticed you broke open your stiches." She said in an annoyed tone.
I put on my customary smile. " Thank you for saving and taking care of me. May I ask why you brought the the food and drink if you didn't know if I was awake?"
The was a silence and then a tinkling laughter. " Oh, I'm sorry. Actually I was here to check up on you and change your bandages. This was going to be some elses but I decided to give it to you because you need it more. Besides he was bugging me all day. Any ways lift your arms."
I did as I was told and she took lightly unrolled the blood stained bandaging from his chest taking extra careful when she got to the wound. I was assulted with a scent of jasmine and couldn't help but notice the soft silkyness of her hair that had unknowing spilled on my arm. She carefully sponged off my wound and the blood making him wince slightly. Then she took out the fresh roll of bandages and rewound it over the wound.
"Now becareful, we don't want that breaking open again." She said lifting her pretty face. By now my vision had cleared. "If you want some fresh air you can go outside and sit on the porch and help yourself to the food in the kitchen."
"Busu!!! Do you have that food yet we're starving here!" A voice called out. The girl sighed and tourned around to leave.
" Thank you, my name is Seta Soujiro." I said tilting my head at her.
" My name is Kayama Kaoru." She said smiling, two amazing saphaire pools twinkling at me.
"Busu!!!" At this Kaoru sighed.
" Why did everyone but me get sick? Sure its okay with Kenshin but
with Yahiko and Sano you would never believe they were really sick." Kaoru
mummered to herself, not noticing the way I froze at Kenshin and Sano's
names.
" Oh well I got to go bring them food, see you later Seta san." With
that she walked out the shoji.
