A Story of the Hitokiri Battousai
Author: Hiii, minna-san!! Suzaku no miko here with a new story! Boy, I'm just full of them lately, ne? Here is one about Kenshin when he was the Hitokiri Battousai. Guess you already got that from the title...hee hee. But my story is going to be a little different. Lots of people who've seen the OVA's know about Kenshin's past. You must certainly know about Kenshin's first love...OH WOW! It's NOT Koaru!!
Kenshin: Please calm down, de gozaru...
Miko: What were you thinking?! How could you?! *Sob* And she's done so much for you!
Kenshin *Sweatdrops*: This was before I knew her. And I doubt she was even born at around this time...
Miko: Oh, gomen, gomen. Hee hee... Well, anyways, I'm sure you all know about Tomoe-san and how Kenshin got the cross on his cheek, right? Well, this is the story of Kenshin when he was the Hitokiri Battousai, but after the OVA's, just after it ends, and someone finds him.... Guess you could say this is a continuation...BUT!! ..The question is....did that person find him too late??
Disclaimers: I own nothing...
Please read on to find out and enjoy!!
Please R&R!
She made her way down the snowy path, carrying heavy bags. These bags contained the food she had used all of her money to buy. 'This will be the last time I will be able to buy anything. I have to make it last until I can find work again.' she acknowledged herself, continuing her lengthy walk home. The snow gently fell to the ground, making the scene more bearable. At least it was not the storm Kyoto had experienced recently.
Every day, Ami, as the woman was called, would walk from her home, deep within the forest, to Kyoto to find a job to support herself. She had no family and lived alone.
As she kept on walking, she looked around her. Ami loved nature. She loved it so much that she could find herself staring at it for hours. However, that would change.
Ami began to shiver, the cold had finally caught up with her. 'It's cold out here. I should get moving.' she thought to herself, taking another few steps. But within several moments, Ami found herself on the floor.
She looked around to find that she had tripped over someone's body! Ami dropped everything she had and quickly crawled over to the body that was laying face-down in the snow. The snow around the body was also covered in blood. She gently grabbed the body and tried to turn it so that the face was in her view.
'He's just a young man! He's still warm. I better get him inside!' Ami thought to herself, placing a hand on his chest inside his hakama. She also noticed that she was only a few feet away from her home. With all the strength she had left, she picked up the body and made it into her house. She gently placed it on the bed and began to remove his clothes...
He felt warm hands on his body and something else... 'It feels like water...' he slowly thought to himself, trying to open his eyes. When he finally succeeded, he became very shocked.
"What do you think you're... What's wrong with me?" he began to yell, but it slowly died to an almost silent whisper. "I found you outside, bleeding like hell, and you would die if I hadn't brought you in." she explained, continuing to wash the wounds in his chest.
'Oh, that's right.... Tomoe's...' he began to think. "It's a good thing I found you. My name is Ami. What's yours?" Ami continued. "...Himura, Kenshin. Domo arigatou." he introduced himself. "Can I ask you something?" she whispered, wiping his face with a cloth. "Nani?" "Why do you look so depressed? If I were in your situation, I would be relieved that I was found. That there's still caring people in this world." she stated, stopping for a second.
"I can't say anything but this... My past was nothing but hell. And because of it, I wanted to die. But, since you went through all this trouble... I guess I can bear it." Kenshin tried to explain. 'I don't want her to become afraid. I don't want her to know of...my other side...'
"Well, Himura-san...If you'd like, you could stay here as long as you like. Whatever your past was, it's over now. Would you like to stay in this bath a little longer? I still have to cook." Ami suggested, staring into his dark eyes. "I would like that. Arigatou. And besides, it feels really nice in this hot bath." Kenshin agreed, chuckling softly.
"OH NO!" Ami suddenly cried, just as she was leaving. "What's wrong?" Kenshin asked, startled by her sudden outburst. "I just remembered that I left the food I just bought outside! I'll be right back!" she explained, putting her scarf around her shoulders. "You can't go out there! It's dangerous!" Kenshin protested, standing up.
"Himura-san! You don't have any clothes!" Ami exclaimed, blushing furiously. Kenshin looked down to find his nude body out in the open, and in front of a woman! "Eep!" Kenshin squeaked. He quickly sat back in the tub, his face a beet red. "Daijobou, I'll be fine. I'll only be a minute." she said, calmly. He nodded, finally persuaded. And with that, she was gone.
Outside
'I have to get started on dinner. Who knows how mad he'll get? He's a samurai, after all.' Ami thought to herself, running as fast as she could through the snow. The snowfall continued, but now it was much harder. 'Looks like the storm has finally made its way over here.' she confirmed, quickly picking up the bags. "Oh? And what do we have here?" a voice asked.
"Nani?!" Ami asked, startled. "Looks like a rare flower in this snowy desert. Ha ha!" another voice replied. 'Bandits!' she told herself, not turning around. "You always gotta' be the poetic one, don't ya'?" his friend replied, stepping closer to Ami. "Just a little verse before we...heh...you know." the first chuckled.
"NO!" Ami cried as one of the men grabbed her slender arm, making her drop the bags she just tried to pick up. "Oooh, she is a cutie! Let's take her home wit' us!" the second suggested. His partner soon joined and began to caress her long, midnight blue hair. Her cerulean eyes shut tightly with fright. 'Himura-san! I need you!' Ami cried in her mind, feeling their hands all over her.
