Author's Note: This is first time at making a fanfic. The idea is to have Kenshin sent from his world to Yoh's world and then have both of them sent to the Super Sentai world where they meet... well if you can tell where I'm going with this.
Disclaimer: Whew! Almost forgot this, I do not own Shaman King, Rurouni Kenshin, or Super Sentai. They belong to Hiroyuki Takei, Nobuhiro Watsuki, Toei Company respectively and all of their other subsidiaries.
Anyway enjoy :)
It was a calm sunny day in the 14th year of the Meiji era. Tokyo was a bustling city and although from the start of the Restoration Period had been at first a rocky start, the city was prospering and its citizens were living in relative peace. In the busy street, a young woman in a western-style maid's outfit was frantically running until she nearly tripped and fell on her face. Luckily, a young man around her age caught her at the near last second. The young man had spiky, unkempt black hair, and 'cat-like' brown eyes. He was wearing a dark blue haori with sets of twin parallel blue lines along the white trim and kanji character for 'evil', emblazoned on the back of the collar. He also wears a white hakama, white undershirt and blue wristbands.
"Y-Yahiko-kun!" the girl stuttered surprisingly as he helped her up.
"Tsubame, what are you doing?" he asked her with concern.
"I was watching...Kenji-kun for Kaoru-san...and I took my eyes off of him...for one second and..." she strained to say as she spent most of her strength running around looking for him.
"Relax, head back to the dojo, I'll go look for him..." he reassured her.
"Y-Yahiko-kun..." she started to tear up.
"Just go..." Yahiko sighed as he began to search around for him.
For a few minutes, it seemed almost impossible to find the kid until something caught his eye. What he noticed was a young boy with reddish hair was chasing after a ball, only for a horseman to nearly lose control of his steed, trying to avoid the young boy. In a split second before the boy had made contact with the horse he was lifted into the air and the horseman was able to regain control of his horse. What happened was Yahiko was able to swoop in almost at an incredible speed and pick up the little boy before he was hit. All street activities seemed to end as many spectators saw what had just happened.
"I'm sorry, is everything alright?" the horseman asked.
"Yeah, no worries!" Yahiko grinned as he held up the boy in front of him who gave him a cheeky grin, "You know you're busted for leaving Tsubame-chan's sight, right?"
So after a small walk, Yahiko and Kenji arrived in front of a dojo that had the wooden plaque on one of the doors that read 'Kamiya'. He opened the door to see that Tsubame was there, frantically trying to explain what happened to a couple. One of them was a woman who had brunette hair, wrapped in a pink bow, and was wearing a light yellow kimono. The other was a man who had the same reddish hair as Kenji, and was wearing a simple dark-red kimono top with white hakama pants. One of the major distinctions to him was that he had an 'X'-shaped scar on his left cheek.
"Kenji! You're okay!" the brunette ran over and picked the little boy up and hugged him tightly, "Don't you scare me like that again!"
"You realize you baby him too much Kaoru..." Yahiko puffed, before he caught on that Kaoru sent a fist right to his gut, "...not...again..."
"Kaoru-dono, if you keep that up, you may kill him before he can teach our son Kamiya Kasshin-Ryu," the red-haired man walked up to her and advised her before helping Yahiko up off the floor.
"Thanks Kenshin..." Yahiko huffed after getting up.
"Well I have to get back to the shop..." Tsubame said as she bowed to Kaoru and Kenshin.
"I guess I could walk with you back there..." Yahiko offered as he looked away from her scratching his head.
"You two have fun~!" Kaoru teased causing Tsubame and Yahiko to simultaneously blush.
"It's not like that!" Yahiko protested before thinking in his head, "I'm so getting you back for this!"
"Ah, it's nice to see everyone enjoy themselves..." Kenshin sighed in relief looking at the four in the dojo's courtyard. However, as he was beginning to relax, he had felt a chill run up his spine. He looked up to notice that the clouds in the sky began to act very strangely as if they were circling around.
"Mama..." Kenji alerted his mother, who was still holding him, as he pointed at the strange phenomenon in the sky.
"Everyone, inside now!" Kenshin alerted the four as he got up from the porch.
"This way!" Yahiko hurriedly grabbed Tsubame's hand and led her inside the dojo.
"Kenshin, what's happening?" Kaoru ran over to him, trying to calm down their trembling son.
"I don't know, but please get inside..." he advised her.
As soon as Kaoru made it inside the dojo and the door was closed, a blinding light emerged from the clouds that gathered and engulfed Kenshin. He then began to feel himself get lightheaded as he was teleported away.
"Kenshin!" Kaoru ran back outside after the phenomenon ended only to find no trace left of him.
"I-Is Kenshin-san...?" Tsubame began to ask Yahiko worriedly.
"Of course not!" he told her, but began thinking, "You better not be gone, Kenshin!"
"Papa..." Kenji's eyes started to water at the sight of his father not being there.
...
...
"Oro...what has happened?" Kenshin said as he held his head. As he looked around he noticed that it was nighttime. He began to aimlessly walk around the hill noting that there had been many tombstones and for those who had departed. What took him off-guard was the fact that there seemed to be a young man at the top of the hill, sitting on one of them looking up at the night sky. The young man noticed Kenshin's presence and signaled him.
"It's a beautiful night to look at the stars, don't you agree?" the youth with headphones asked.
"Oro?" Kenshin could only force out his trademark verbal tic to the youth.
"Come on why don't you join us?" he asked again, jumping off the tombstone.
"Wait a second, what do you mean by us?" Kenshin asked before whipping his head to make sure no one else was there, "it is only me and you out here on this hill."
Just then Kenshin felt a shiver run down his spine as he saw a blue figure appear beside the boy. As the figure became clearer, he was a man with light gray hair fashioned into a ponytail. He had a very serious yet calm look on his face. He was clad in old samurai wrist guards and shoulder plates that were on the out side of his white cloak. Kenshin had no idea what to expect as he gripped his sakabatou tightly; then he was in for the surprise of his life.
"Yoh-dono, are you sure about him?" the spirit asked, "I smell blood on him."
"Amidamaru relax, you are being paranoid," the youth protested at his ghostly friend.
"And yet you are being too trusting again, remember when you first met Faust?" the spirit inquired.
"Yes, I remember that and he changed-," the youth was about to explain until he was cut off.
"Um, I do not want to interrupt but is that samurai a spirit?" Kenshin asked wearily.
"Oh, yes he is," the youth said as Kenshin tensed up a bit before Yoh continued, "Amidamaru was a samurai from about 600 years ago who died on this very hill."
"Now I would like to ask a question," Amidamaru snapped as he grabbed the hilt of one of his swords, "Who are you and what are your intentions?"
"I was taken in by a mysterious light and I found myself at the bottom of this hill," he answered, "I only wish to find my wife Kaoru and my son Kenji."
"Hey ease up Amidamaru, he is clearly lost and we should to help him," the youth said as he patted the samurai and walked towards their new confused companion.
Kenshin now saw the boy that stepped out of the darkness had brown hair that seemed to stop at his shoulders. What kept the youth's hair in place was something that seemed completely foreign to him. He was wearing what seemed to be Western-style clothing like Yutaro but it was clear the youth was a lot more relaxed with it along with wooden bath shoes. He then noticed a few scars the boy had on his sides because his shirt was unbuttoned and he noticed the bear claws around the youth's neck. He also noticed what looked like a mortuary tablet sticking out of the youth's pants pocket.
"So what's your name?" the youth asked.
"Himura, Himura Kenshin..." he responded, "...and yours?"
"Asakura, Asakura Yoh," the youth answered back with a grin.
"Would you happen to tell me where am I?" Kenshin asked.
"Oh, you are at Funbari Hill in Tokyo," Yoh answered.
"Wait you must be mistaken this can't be Tokyo, I know what it looks like there isn't towering structures or those captured fires," Kenshin said as he pointed at the skyscrapers then the lamppost.
"Tokyo has always had these since even before I was born," Yoh said as he tilted his head in confusion.
"Wh-What year is this?" Kenshin asked wearily, bracing for the answer.
"It's the year 2001," Yoh answered.
"What do you mean by this 2001; it's the 14th year of the Meiji era..." Kenshin stated, causing Yoh to tilt his head and think.
"14th year...of Meiji...wait, I know this one..." Yoh began to scratch his head in confusion.
"Yoh-dono, you need to pay attention to your studies at school," Amidamaru looked at the young man disappointed, "That means that this man is from the year 1881!"
"Okay, so maybe school isn't my strong point!" Yoh defended himself, until he noticed Kenshin was getting very wobbly, "Hey! Kenshin are you alri-?!"
"T-That's n-not possible..." Kenshin now held his head in pain as he started shifting around violently, "...my f-friends...K-Kaoru-dono...K-Kenji!" Before Yoh could get to him though...
[THUMP]
Kenshin, due to the shock of finding out he was in a different time, collapsed from disbelief. Everyone he had known were gone and he had no way of contacting them.
"Yoh-dono, what shall we do?" Amidamaru asked with concern.
"Well, we will take him back to the onsen (hot springs)," Yoh said as he grabbed one of Kenshin's arms to hold him up.
"You think Anna-sama will be mad?"
"We can't just leave him here, he just found out that he was sent to the future and everyone he knows are gone."
"I see your point, but-"
"Relax Amidamaru, everything will work out..."
"Okay, Yoh-dono shall I go ahead and give Anna-sama a heads-up?"
"Yeah, that would be a good idea."
So as Amidamaru floated towards his home, Yoh continued to help Kenshin. He felt that this was the least he could do since he did put Kenshin in this position.
"Don't worry, I will do my best to find out how to get you home," Yoh said determinedly.
...
...
"You know you could at least give me a heads-up before you decide to bring home another stray," the girl with the red bandana said as she ate into a rice-ball.
"Anna, he's not a stray he's-," Yoh tried to protest.
"You don't have to tell me, I already got all the information from Amidamaru and a few observing spirits," Anna said putting her plate up.
"Well then you know we can't just leave him like this."
"What do you suppose we do? I have already went from cover to cover of the Cho-Senji Ryakketsu, there is no shamanic ability that allows us to travel back in time. If there was Hao would've easily-"
"Don't say it, I have an idea of what could've happened."
"Tomorrow, training is resumed. I need to make sure your oversoul hasn't been dulled..." Anna said as she got up and left the living room.
"S-Sure, no problem..." as Anna left the room, Yoh started to sweat bullets.
...
[Meanwhile in the guest room...]
"No...no...KAORU! KENJI!" Kenshin screamed as he woke up from his sleep.
As he looked around the room he could tell that he was not back in his time. The sweat dripped off his face as he began to worry about the people he left behind back at the Kamiya Dojo. He then looked over to his side and noticed his sakabatou, still sheathed. Before he was able to grab it, Amidamaru phased into the room.
"Kenshin-san, is everything alright?" Amidamaru asked
"Yes, I just had a nightmare..." Kenshin said as he held his head
"Oh, well I have been meaning to ask, are you okay?"
"Yes, I'm fine, it's a bit jarring to find you have been sent to the future."
"I'm positive that those you left behind are doing well."
"Yeah..."
"Kenshin-san, Yoh-dono has promised that he will find a way to bring you back to your time."
"I...appreciate your help with this matter, Amidamaru-san. Tell Yoh-san I said thank you..."
And with that, Amidamaru left the room and let Kenshin fall back into the dream world. Amidamaru floated through the house until he noticed Yoh outside looking into the sky.
"Yoh-dono, still looking at the stars I see," Amidamaru said with a smirk.
"Yeah, but it's better to look at them up at Funbari Hill," Yoh said slightly disappointed.
"So, how do you feel about Kenshin-san?"
"He can't be that bad...the only thing that worries me is why he was taken from his home..."
"Well, we have to see if there is anything we can do."
"Uh...Amidamaru, training resumes tomorrow..."
"Wait...WHAT?!"
"Yeah, Anna wants to make sure the Armor O.S. hasn't gotten rusty..."
"YOU REALIZE WE HAVEN'T USED IT IN A WHILE RIGHT?!"
"Hehehe...So how bad do you think she will kill me?"
"Oh, Yoh-dono..."
...
Closing Note: Yeah if you guys can review and critique (be gentle, first time writing and all T-T)
The point of when Kenshin is taken from his home is 3 years after the ending of his manga, so he is married to Kaoru and has his son Kenji. In the Shaman King world, it is a year after the final fight with Hao in Shaman King: Ken Zen Bang (chapters 297-299).
Edit (7/27/2013): I'm grateful this was pointed out to me. Just having this start out with Yoh and Kenshin talking without fully explaining how he was sent to Yoh's world was kind of bone-headish on my part so I started the story from Kenshin's world.
Edit #2: Funny thing, right before Amidamaru appears and Kenshin and Yoh begin talking SORT OF mirrors the first episode/chapter of Shaman King when Morty/Manta meets Yoh! Funny that!
Yoh: Hey! You realize she's going to send me into that "training" again right?!
Me: Oh really? I don't remember that (evil smile)...
Yoh: T-T
