Hey, everyone! This idea popped into my head and wouldn't leave, so I figured I'd write it out. Basically,
I was wondering what would have happened if Misao met up with Kenshin during the ordeal with the
Oniwabanshuu. And as I had to point out to my fiancé, yes, Misao was searching for them back then, and yes she was in Tokyo close to that time as well. Sooooo, I took the liberty of doing a 'what-if' story! Hope
you enjoy!

and a host of others that I can never remember. It is used without permission and I am not gaining any money from this.

MISAO'S APPEARANCE
Part 1 (Can never think of good titles. If you have a suggestion, I'm more than open to them! ^__^)
Misao kept trudging through the busy streets. She had traveled all night to reach Tokyo by mid-morning and now her legs were objecting to the continued movements. 'Must keep going. I will find them here. I
can feel it.' She forced herself to turn down a less crowded lane and spotted a dojo just a ways down. 'I wonder if they can help.'
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Kenshin and Kaoru were clearing the yard of debris. Last night's attack from the Oniwabanshuu had left the area in quite a state. Bits of burnt leaves and grass were being swept away as well as branches that
had been ripped from their trees. Yahiko was peacefully resting under Megumi's watchful eye after being
struck with one of Beshimi's poison tipped darts and Sano was nowhere to be seen. Kenshin's ears picked up the sound of someone approaching and he quickly jumped to alert, ready to fight. A small female voice called from the gate. "Hello? Is anyone home? Hello?"
Kaoru exhaled the breath she had been holding and made her way to the door. She creaked it open and saw a young girl with a long braid standing before her. "May I help you?"
"Oh, yes. I'm so glad someone was home! My name is Misao Makimachi and I would like to ask you a few questions. You see, I've been looking for some friends of mine but can never quite catch up to them. I was wondering if maybe you had seen them or could give me any sort of information." Misao bowed deeply to Kaoru and looked up expectantly.
"I don't know if I can be of any help, but I will certainly try. My name is Kaoru Kamiya. Please come in."
She turned to the redheaded swordsman. "Kenshin, will you please take Misao inside while I run and get
Megumi. She might be able to help as well."
"Of course, Kaoru-dono. Right this way, Misao-dono." He flashed her a smile and led her to the house.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Kaoru led a weak, but awake Yahiko and Megumi into the room with Kenshin and Misao and took her seat next to him.
After introductions, Misao grew serious. "As I said before, I've been looking for my friends. When I was a child, five men took care of me after my parents were killed. One of the men I was especially close to. He was my idol. I wanted to make him so proud of me all the time." She managed a small smile. "But, when I was just eight years old, they left me with an old man in Kyoto and left. I don't know where they went or where they are now, but I'm trying desperately to find them and convince them to come home."
"We'll help you in any way we can, Misao-dono. What did these men look like or what were their names?"
"Beshimi, Shikijo, Hyottoko, Hannya, and Aoshi Shinomori."
