Disclaimer: I don't own RK. I do own, however, Akira Takenouchi. And yeah, it's a short first chappie. WHO CARES!
"You leave them out of this!" Sano yelled. The man yelled, "I DON'T CARE! THIS IS FOR MY BROTHER!" Then, a voice called out, "I think you should agree with Sanoskue Sagara, that I do. Let them go, you dishonorable big piece of sushi!" The man called out; "Who are you? Show yourself!"
A young man enveloped with a cloak appeared before them. The young man thought, 'Hmm. So Kenshin Himura is the famed Battousai the manslayer.' The man laughed, "You don't look that impressive." The young man took off his cloak. He was actually a young man with a spiked black hair and a scar on his left cheek that had to be from a falcon scratching him with his three talons trying to protect his territory. His kimono was blue and had a reverse blade sword. The young man thought, 'No, it can't be him. The spiked black hair, the falcon talon scar, and the blue kimono… By Kami, it's actually him!' The man trembled, "You're… You're the Nobleman of the Sword, aren't you?" The young man smiled. "Yes. I'm Takenouchi Akira, the famed Nobleman of the Sword. Famed throughout the Meiji Revolution as one of the only swordsmen to have matched up against the Legendary Battousai. You are not going to take those two as hostages!" He then looked at the young girl and gasped, "She… She can't be Kamiya Karou, the Rose of Martial Arts!" Karou said, "I could, and I am!" Akira frowned, "Trying to take the Rose of Martial Arts as a hostage… THAT'S IT!!!" Akira jumped up into the sky. The man whimpered, "Oh no." Akira gave him his Nobleman grin. He yelled, "Takenouchi Style of kenjutsu combat… SEKIHA TSUNAMI-KEN!" After he said that, a huge wave of water came out of the ground and both him and the tsunami charged at the man and he moved as fast as a powerful tsunami. And the man fell down, unconscious. He then turned around to the battle at hand and yelled, "Battousai! The next time we meet, I'll challenge you to a battle! FAREWELL FOR NOW!" And just as mysteriously as he appeared, the Nobleman of the Sword, Takenouchi Akira had now mysteriously disappeared.
When the newly formed Kenshin-Gumi was walking out in Edo, they heard a crash in the alley. They saw Akira chase some thieves away for an old lady, she smiled, "Domo Arigatou, young man." Akira smiled, "Douitashimaste." The old lady walked to the Akebeko. He glared at Kenshin. He said, "Battousai. Ten years ago… Our match wasn't decided… But now I'm tired. I'd like a place to stay." Karou smiled, "Well, you did save my life, and I owe you. You can board with us."
Karou: And so, that's how we got two new boarders. Sanosuke Sagara, and Akira Takenouchi, a master of the Takenouchi style and self proclaimed ultimate rival of the Battousai.
A/N: Yeah, Yeah, I know.
My First RK fic. Now, I'd like to point out a few things for the
Japanese language challenged. Or Japanese challenged, in general
In Edo (Present Day Tokyo), People
say the people's last name before their first. So in Digimon, it'd
be like Kamiya Taichi, or in G Gundam, Kashuu Domon, or in Yu Yu Hakusho,
Urameshi Yuuske.
Now for the words.
Douitashimaste: It means in Japanese,
Your Welcome
Domo Arigatou: Thank you Very Much
Kenjutsu: Old style of saying Kendo (I think.)
Kami: God (I think.)
There'll be more chappies ahead, RK
fans! Sayonara! (I think everybody's familiar with this word!
Goodbye!)
