In search of rain
Ch 1
I am saddened by the happening's of late,
And the business of this world,
Although it pain's my deepest soul,
No tears do yet fall,
How so do these feeling's bring rain,
To slowly liven up the land.
Yet the darkness only ever arrives,
And is yet to find its leave.

"G what the hell are you doing?!" Asked Isy
"Tuning this potion I've made to help us work out the demon's status and power type."
"Ok so how does it work?"
"Well for example if there's a super high level monster round it'll go black."
"Like it is now?!"
"Yes like it is… Oh #$*!!!!"
Everyone was thrown back with an explosion. And the attacking demon appeared.
Hence the battle began.
But the demon only had eye's for me. Of course. I groaned go for the medic first. And the attack hit and I slammed up against a tree. I started falling but before I met the ground he grabbed me and through me through a black Portal. The last thing I saw as I went through was Issy running to grab my hand. Then the world went black.
I awoke to a full moon above my head in a grove of bamboo. And tear's welled up in my eye's as I wondered were I was and how he had done that. I heard voice's well more like shout's And scurried to find them. All my senses told me to run the other way but I had to find someone. I ran through the bamboo tripping and scuffing my knees. I finally made it to the voice's. I found myself on a dirt road with an overturned carriage and 2 samurai laughing a girl they were holding were holding by her hair. As she screamed please and cry's one of the raised his sword to her throat and slit it. She fell to the ground without another word. A stepped back. Only to hear a twig snap. The men were on me fast as lightning. But somehow my hand's were quicker. I caught the sword and twisted it out of my attacker's hand's. My fear over run with adrenalin I pushed the hilt into his gut then grabbed the handle and attached the other man with a howl. Both men fell and I thought they were dead.
" I heard scream's and thought I could help." Came a voice behind me.
"But it seam's I arrived to late." I turned And raised the sword in a feeble attempt to keep him back.
" don't worry I won't hurt you." I gasped and dropped the sword realizing who I was standing in front of. I guess that explained were I was.
Hiko Sejeru stood in front of me with a young red headed boy at his side.
I knelt and stared at the sword.
"Are the men dead." I murmured and passed out.
I awoke to soft like flooding through the screen's
"What a weird dream." I muttered to myself. Wait! My eye's flew open and I took in the scene. I was lying on a photon. Not my bed. I'd never seen the traditional tatami room before or the scene outside the open screen. My first thought's were that my friend's were playing a trick on me. I put my head in my hand's. And shot back up. For the first time noticing the bandage's on my soar hand's
"Aw. Crap." I muttered.
"scuze me." Came a small voice at the door. "Shishou Told me to bring you some food."
" Um thankyou." I told the boy I knew was Kenshin.
"What's your name?" I asked him.
"Himura Kenshin. And what is yours pray tell?" He asked me in return.
"I don't know any more. I lost it when I was sent here." A tear streaked down my face. As I relized my name would only bring suspicion here along with my clothes. I was going to have to leave them behind till I found a way back.
"Maybe Shishou will give you a new name like he did me." Kenshin said whith a smile. (Gawd he was a cute kid!) I picked up the chopstick's and started to eat.
" Are you learning the sword, little kenshin?"
"Yes. Shishou made me a promise that he would teach me the sword to protct those I love. And the promse I have to keep."
"Of course." I murmered.
"Does he wish for my presence?"
"He will come to you soon." Kenshin told me. "I have to run know and practice some more."
Maybe an hour later Hiko walked in. I placed my diary aside.
" Strange clothes for such whether." He said with a smile and then with a bow introduced himself. When he asked for my name I gave him the same answer I had given Kenshin. He nodded thoughtfully.
"Do you wish for a new name?"
"It would be preferable to no name at all. Yes" I told him whith a warm smile.
He nodded again thoughtfully. Then he smiled.
"Himura Katana. That shall be your new name. And I will like I did kenshin give you the skill of my sword. So you don't have to lose it again."
If it mean's I will live to see my friend's again I will do anything. I thought.
"Thankyou Hiko." I said bowing so my head touched the floor.
