I don't know if I've mentioned this before but like I said, I write a lot of stories in my journal, and today I just had to type it. So here it is. If you don't like it I will just keep it in my book and continue with my other story Past Person. So here is just a little taste of my new story, "I'm not what you think"
"Shousho, I would like to go help those in the revolution. You said that we should use our swords to protect others, well there are many dieing and suffering and I need to help." Chibi Kenshin said strongly to his master. He was small for a 14 year old, but more dangerous than a full grown samurai. This, Kenshin Himura, was very smart, strong, and never listened to anyone when he knew and believed what was right. And right now, he knew his strength would be the right thing to help the war for the future of many in Japan.
"Ha, you, baka deshie, go fight in a war? Have you ever killed or taken any life purposely? And no, that bandit doesn't count and besides you sulked about it for two months. How would kill hundreds of men benefit your soul and conscience? I think you should just drop it. This conversation is boring. Go get me some sake and then go get some sleep."
Kenshin did as he was told but lay awake thinking of how he was going to get through the obstacle of blood and innocence.
Back to the part about him being smart. Well, he was. He had his dilemma figured out. That was what he was smart for, fast at conclusions and answers. The one problem is that he never figured his self in his results. He was going to give up on his humanity and self being to shield his soul from his sins he was willing to commit. He was going to lose everything he was to protect those who were weak. Kill himself to save others.
At age 14, Kenshin Himura left to fight in the revolution for the Meji Government. He became the Hitokiri Battousai, a heartless assassin that is feared by all. Living up in his mountain all alone, Hiko heard the rumors and saddened by his baka deshie's choices.
~~~~~~~~~*
It was a quiet day and Hiko was resting on a log while watching a clay pot harden in the fire. He was in a half sleep with a cup of sake in his hand when he heard someone approaching. It sounded like an adult and a smaller child. He decided to wait till they said something first.
"Brother, may I ask a favor of you?" Hiko turned around to face a middle aged woman with a little girl about 12. Yes, he knew this woman but it had been years since he'd seen her. This was his younger sister and second master of the Hiten Mitsurigi Ryuu. Mitsako Shikijo.
"Woman, why do you ask a favor of me when you would not speak a word to me or listen to me in the past?" Mitsako looked on to her brother sadly, the little girl clutching her kimono skirt. "Hiko, I would understand that you would be angry by my actions in the past. But I should have listened to you then. I have paid for my idiocy and now I come to you. Please, brother, help me in my last request." "Depending on the request. But first, tell me why you now decide to come to me."
When Mitsako's training was complete, she met a man. He asked for her hand and she accepted. Hiko did not like this and tried to talk his younger sister out of it. Mitsako would not here of it. They married and move to Tokyo so not to be bothered by him. That was 14 years ago, a couple months before he met Kenshin. Now the woman shows up again, telling Hiko that the marriage was devastating. Her husband abused her and treated her like a slave. After two years of trying and beatings she finally had a baby, but a girl. Her husband did not want a girl. Since Mitsako damaged her insides while giving birth, she could not have another baby. Her husband kept the baby and raised her no more than a slave. Both girls were constantly beaten. On day, he went drinking and was jumped by some thugs and killed. That was when Mitsako decided to leave. She went directly to her brother.
"Told you he was not right for you. And yet you married him anyways. Now, what is this request that you ask?'
"Hiko, I will not live long. I have a disease, I have something new, I don't know what it is but I am weakening and I want you to take care of my daughter, Kaoru." "What will you do while I care for the girl?" "You mean you'll do it?" "I never said I would but I would like to know what you plan to do while she is here." "I will wander; I want to see Japan like I always dreamed to before that man. I will die peaceful. Hiko, will you train her as well, she knows all the techniques but the succession but she isn't fast enough and cant perform them properly yet." Hiko stayed silent for awhile then turned back to his pots. Mitsako was about to turn back toward the road when Hiko spoke up again.
"My only question is what can she not do. I hope she can walk a long distance. I will want her to fetch me some sake here in a while, and can she cook well."
Mitsako smiled at her brother. "She is plenty strong for fetching but I'm afraid she isn't that well of a cook. If it's alright with you, I would like to stay till she is asleep." "Stay if you wish, but you will cook me dinner, since my baka deshi left, I haven't had the best of meals." "So you have had a student while I've been gone. Why is he not here?" "He went to fight in the war. If I'm right, he is known as Battousai."
"I see. Well, I'll have Kao-chan fetch you sake while I prepare dinner. I will leave you now." Hiko turned to Kaoru, she had a sad look to her but he could tell she was strong. You could tell by looking at her crystal blue eyes she was a warrior. She was defiant and innocent all in one. "So, have you ever defeated your mother in a match?" "No, she says I am close to perfection but I have limited amount of training due to my chores." "Well, then we will start training tomorrow baka deshi. How old are you?" "I am 12; I will be 13 in two months on the sixth." "Well then baka deshi, here are some coins, go by me the larges jug of sake down at the store at the far corner of the third street. Tell them I sent you and they will give you my brand." With that he gave her the money and turned back to his pots. If you looked at the man, he would look bored but underneath, he was more than happy. He had finally seen his sister, got a cook for a day, a new pupil and a new adopted child. Yes, he already loved that girl Kaoru. He will raise her like his own. He will love this girl, and wait for his son to return.
