A little visit to the past

Summary: When fifthteen year old Himura Kenji is somehow in the past, he sees his parents when they just met! How will this change the plot with little Kenji there?

Disclaimer: Rurouni Kenshin or Samurai X does not belond to me but to great and thoughtful Nobuhiro Watsuki who created this wonderful story that brought many fans out into the open and-

Yahiko: Just get it over with!

Isaac(me): Sigh. I don't own anything here except the story, plot and maybe some OCs.

Chapter One: An orb of trouble

(Kenji's POV)

Today was March 10, 1888. This was also the 27th Meiji Era. I live in a place called Tokyo in Japan. My name is Himura Kenji. I have dried-blood red hair and dark blue eyes. I live in a dojo called the Kamiya Kasshin-Ryu Kenjutsu Dojo. There lives my mother and father.

My mother has jet-black hair and blue eyes like mine but lighter. My father has red hair as well but lighter. Me and my father look a lot alike except that he has a cross-shaphed scar on his left cheek. I don't like my father as much. We never had a full face to face talk. Saw each other around the dojo, dinner, and other places he does house-work.

Anyways, it's noon right now and I'm in the streets of the marketplace. Father is back at home doing the laundry as usual while Mother is cooking. Her cooking is not good but not bad as well. Somehow, he manages to burn the rice. Father's cooking is a lot better but I do not dare to admit it.

While I walked down the streets, some people came up to me with clothing or food but I turned them away. They walked away without any questions, most likely because I'm carrying my Sakabatou. I got this from Myojin Yahiko who had gotten it from my father.

Yahiko is kinda like a teacher to me and gave the Sakabatou last year on my birthday. I had to have a duel with him though. He beat me but still handed it over. When I was around three, I saw my father and Yahiko having the same battle.

"Sorry sir." A walking man said as he just bumped into me with a cart of something and running off the other way. His ki is kinda scared. I only took a glance of what he looked like. I think he had brown hair and I couldn't get a look of his eyes. He's seems strange. Maybe I should follow him but it's not any of my bussiness but a side of me is saying that the man may be doing something wrong and I should help.

I let out a sigh before turning around and running in the same road as he did. As I bumped into people, I said sorry and really wished that I can jump around instead but that would cause attetion towards me and that was one thing I didn't want at the moment.

'Damn that guy is fast but I'm faster.' I thought as I sped up right behind him. I didn't want to scare the guy though. I wasn't even running half fast as I usaully do. I'm fast but father abit faster. It's not my fault though. He's older than me. He never taught me the Hiten Mitsurugi-ryu style and I learned it myself just hearing about it. I don't really blame him though. Mother told me that he couldn't do it anymore when I was only two.

'Why'd he run in there? It's a dead end.' I thought again to myself as the man turned into a corner which was an alley way and a dead end. I stopped and put myself on the wall just outside the alley way to take a listin.

"Here's your stupid crate. Now give me my money!" The man yelled to someone. I took a peek around the wall to take a look only to see the man talking to someone in a robe. The robe had a hood and it was on the guy so I couldn't see his face.

"Good. Your money will come after you hand over the crate" I heard the hooded figure spoke. Telling from his voice, it was a male. Deep and scary sounding. I didn't like the sound one bit.

"Here." The man spoke and threw the crate on the ground, causing it to break and a strange red and black thing apearing. It round and almost like ball but it glowed a white aura around it.

"Good. With this, I can defeat Himura Kenshin once and for all" The hooded figure said and gave out an evil laugh. I froze where I was standing. Himura Kenshin? Kenshin was the name of my father and right there was the man who was going to kill him. I had to stop this before anything happens!

I stepped away from the wall I was leaning on and standing at the only way out of the alley for the two male to see. I felt a little scared but that didn't stop me from standing there with a poker face on. ((A/N: Did they even have poker back then? O.O Oh well))

"My My. Who's this?" The hooded figure said as walked a few steps toward me. I drew my Sakbatou and held in front as the figure stopped in his tracks. "You're Himura's kid." He added and it almost seemed like there was a hint of joy in his voice.

"What are you going to do to my father?" I demanded as I waited for an answer. True that I didn't like my father like a real one but I can't just let him die for whatever reason this man had.

"Nothing you'll like to experince. Something slow and very painful." The hooded figure said. The other man's ki was full of panic and ran off no sooner than that. "I have a better idea, how about I get rid of you first then your father. Just like father like son."

I didn't say a word as the figure picked up the strange object and held in between the two of us. It now took on a strange green glow and green itself. All of a sudden, what seemed like a green blast shot right out of it. I jumped to the side, nearly being just a corspe. The blast came contact with a brick wall and destorying it like it was just a fly.

"So the kid has some speed after all" The figure said. The ball was now back in it's normal color and glow. "Let's see if you can do that again." He said as the ball took the same glow and even more blasts shot out. I dogded everyone of them but with difficulty. The blast had more speed than before.

Knowing that the orb thing is his sorce of power, I ran towards the figure and knocked the orb right out his hands. I heard the figure let out a small gasp as the orb rolled right beside me. It was now pure white and letting out small lighting bolts from it. No sooner after that, the blots enlarged and a bright flash happened. The last thing I saw was bright light.

I awoke to a street in Tokyo. The first thing I saw the the dark blue sky. Wait, dark? It was only noon when I was battling with that man. I stood up quickly to look around. I knew this street very well. This is the way I get to the markets.

Three questions popped into my head. One, where did that man get off to. Two, why is it night. Finally three, what was that flash? Well, that man must have ran off when that orb thing gave off a flash but that still leaves question number two. Why is it nighttime? I must have blacked out but not that long! The time must be at least eleven.

"Battosai!" I heard a yell nearby. It sounded like a female. I walked over to a corner to peek over to see a young woman in a white training suit with a bokutou in her hands towards a red-headed figure. Red-headed? The only ones I know that have red hair is myself and father.

I ran over to take a closer look only to see the strangest thing. The woman, around my age was, was-

"Mother?"

(End of Kenji's POV)

Bokutou is that wooden sword that Yahiko and Karou uses. I'm trying to use as less japanese as possible. I hope you like that! I got this idea at school when I was thinking about Kenji and that he hates his father. He never gotten to know his father's past and ta-da! This story appeared! Just to let you know, I NEVER watched the OVAs. I'm planning to. In this story, Kenshin doesn't leave the dojo and stays. Kenji and Kenshin never had the father-son thing though. That's just how the story is going to be.

Kenji: But-

No buts! . This is my second story so forgive me if I have any spelling or grammer errors. I suck at spelling but grammer, I'm pretty good at it. The story is mostly in Kenji's POV but also in other characters but mostly Kenji. Now, see that little button there? Yeah that button. Now, put your mouse over and click review.
