characters which I created here are definitely mine.
Genki desu minna!!! ^_^x this is my second RK fic but is a lot more different from the first one. This story contains almost all the major characters.and I tried HORROR~DRAMA~COMEDY story this time. Bleh. I don't think, well, maybe it's a "little" hair-raising. But I still think it's funny. Well, as I said, I'm still an amateur. And as for the title, again it's a line in a song from X closing song in the movie. I'm really not good at titles and I kinda like getting titles from songs just like the first one. This fic takes place somewhere after Volume 28.
Updates:This is a repost since I didn't give much attention to this fic (I was busy with Let Me Kill For You at that time). Anyway, I promised to post a fic after I finish the last one, right? So, here it is. I hope you like it too. It is not an A/U fic. I think it's a little OOC. Your reviews are most welcome! Ja!

Chapter 1. When Time Returns
"Chikushou!!!" Sano exploded from behind while shoving his hands to his pockets. "It's all that damn fox fault! She's not a little girl, she can go to Aizu anytime she wants!!!" his voice was pouting while the Kenshin-gumi trekked the gloomy woods trees towering while the waves of the ocean splashed about strongly against the rugged rocks and cliffs the moon hovering over them.
"Don't be rude Sano!" Kaoru chimed in front of him. "Megumi-san is our friend. And it's good we escorted her back to their home." Her voice was stern her blue eyes glaring at him.
"Oi, Jo-chan, that ketsuna-onna is old. She can't get lost!" he returned.
"Ne, Sano's just scared Kaoru. CHICKEN!!!! Ahahaha!!!" Yahiko broke out loud.
"Why you scrawny little brat!!!" Sano grabbed him by the back of his gi and pulled his spiky hair. Yahiko, enraged pulled Sano's hair in return and gave it a hard tug. Kenshin, holding the lantern in front just smiled and turned to see Kaoru somewhat lonely.
"Kaoru-dono?" he queried his eyes softly looking at her.
She gave out a heavy sigh and said, "I'm fine, Kenshin.It's just that, I really will miss Megumi-san."
"Aa.I will too." he returned nodding a little.
* * * "Kaoru-san!!!" Megumi cried entering the dojo yard on her heels.
"Megumi-san?" Kaoru whispered looking at the figure coming to her.
Megumi came panting. "Ka-oru.san" Megumi caught her breath. "Ummm, I have something to tell you"
"E?" she answered while inviting Megumi to sit next to her.
"Here." she simply said handing Kaoru a piece of folded paper.
Kaoru began opening the piece of paper only to realize it was a letter:
My Ever Dearest Sister Megumi,
Konnichiwa!!! I'm now here at Aizu. I heard that you are there in Tokyo. I planned to go there when I arrived from America but I settled some important things here. I'm sorry for making you worry then when I left. But I want to tell you that I'm safe. And I would appreciate it if you can come back home now and we'll start a new life together.
Watashi, matte ru Nee-san.
Ai, Takani Kazumi
"Megumi-san!" Kaoru exclaimed.
"Yes. I was really glad when I received that this morning. I really want to go there and see my brother. I long hoped that he return to me. I love him so much." Her voice was shuddering. A little more and she was crying.
"I understand." Kaoru brought Megumi to her embrace and soothingly patted her back. "Your prayers were answered. You should go to him. He is your brother."
"Kaoru, thank you for everything. Thank you for accepting me. Thank you for giving me a family when I needed one." She returned snuggling closer to Kaoru tears streaming down her flushed cheeks.
"You are very welcome." Kaoru assured her in her most gentle voice her lips smiling.
* * * Megumi left that day escorted by Kaoru, Kenshin, Sano and Spiky boy. But unfortunately for the four, they ended up late in the night walking home.
"Hey, did you hear that?!" Sano broke in the silence. Stopping as he said so.
"Hear what?!?" Yahiko asked stopping from his walk.
A painful and sorrowful cry was heard from a distance making their pores taunt.
"Yeah. I hear it too." Kenshin said leveling the lantern near his face.
The cry went again. The only sound that seemed they could hear.
"There it goes again!!! What is that?!?" Yahiko leaped from behind.
Their eyes and ears were scanning the dark forest. Heads looking here and there in confusion
"There! There look there!!!" Kaoru frantically pointed to a nearby cliff. There stood, a big house, seemed what to be western in style. But then, they saw a feminine figure. Dressed in a white kimono. But before they could say anything the woman jumped over the cliff and into the angry waters below.
"That's funny, I never remember seeing that cliff this morning." Yahiko observed his forehead folded.
"It doesn't matter! Let's go!" Sano cried waving his hand signaling them to go.
They all ran towards the place running through grassy woods and then to the sand only to find nothing. The womanly figure seemed to faint of color, turning transparent and then.nothing.
"What the--!?!!" Sano exclaimed going to a full stop.
"It couldn't be.a." Kaoru's throat constricted. It seemed like something stopped her from completing her sentence.
"A Yurei." A mysterious voice supplied. Looking at their back, they saw a tall man dressed in a blue western clothing holding a lamp.
"That was my. sister.She died years ago from.jumping in the cliff." He gave out a heavy sigh and looked up to the cliff. "You're not from this town, ne?" he asked looking at them all signs of sadness gone.
The Kenshin-gumi nodded in one accord.
"E. You see, we escorted a friend to Aizu. Were from Tokyo" Kaoru explained.
"I see. Then you must be tired. It's not safe to travel in these woods in this kind of time. It's better if you spend the night in the Lawrence manner and then go home tomorrow." The man offered. "By the way, I'm Andrew Lawrence. And you are?." he queried looking at them.
"Namae-wa Kamiya Kaoru." She supplied bowing. "And these are my friends, Himura Kenshin, Sagara Sanosuke and Myojin Yahiko." She added pointing at them one by one with her hands as they nodded in return.
"Wakkarimasu. Please, come this way." He nodded and then led them up to the cliff.
Surprised despite themselves, they followed the man. But there was something very strange. They weren't feeling scared or detached. It seemed like this guy which they only met for a minute was with them for a long time.

Author's Notes:
My apologies to any Sano-Megumi fans. Sumimasen if I didn't put up a farewell scene for the both of them. Honestly, I tried to make one. But then ended making no damn sense! Like, doesn't really go with the story. Furthermore, I have no idea of their dialogue. (Sure, I know they're both cussing out words with each other all the time) But other than that, I really have no knowledge of how Sano would say "Ai Shiteru" and "Sayounara" to our fox-lady. And about her brother Kazumi, there is no Takani Kazumi. Megumi had brothers but personally, I don't know any single one of them. Well, seems like I mastered Kenshin and Kaoru! Well, anyway, Yahiko and the gang's here. ^_~x
