A Brothers Hatred
Chapter One
New Friends
Tokyo, Japan 2003
Two pairs of eyes stared out the window. One violet and one amber. Both of them had a strange color of red hair. One seemed kind and one seemed like he hated the school he was in right now. One seemed to have a kind aura, and one seemed to have one full of arrogance. Both seemed to have low ponytails. And they both seemed to be staring out of the same window. (I have so many seemed's!)
Another pair of eyes stared back at both of them. His eyes were colored flaming red and those same eyes seemed to hold hatred for everything in the world. And he seemed to be covered up in lots and lots of cloth with little bits of his hair coming out. He stared at the twin brothers and said something. "Welcome to Takayake High. This is a new piece of property so I expect you two to behave and not mess this place up." He said. "And as the principle of this new school, I have high hopes in teaching martial arts for P.E. and for the grades of other people for their professors, parents, and themselves."
Both of them broke their gaze from the window and looked back at a man name, Shishio? Both of them thought that his name was weird. But now that they've seen him, they thought that he was even weirder than his name. Then the one with amber eyes spoke first.
"I'm sure we'll keep our tempers down won't we dear brother Kenshin?" Battousai asked with heavy sarcasm that seemed to be believable to anyone who didn't act out a lot for sarcasm.
"I'm sure we would dear brother Battousai." He too had much sarcasm. Both of the brothers were known in the city because their father, Hiko Himura, who is a famous scientist. Both of them were also known for their hair color and eyes. They're eyes were probably the most curious thing you might have ever seen. When one of them gets mad, his eyes turn amber. When one is cheerful and kind, their eyes turn violet. And when they're neither, their eyes turn steel blue. Which neither aren't now.
Shishio looked at both of them with a careful eye and then let them go. "You will both be back here by tomorrow so that we'll have more students so that we could take a tour." Shishio said as all three of them got up out of their chairs. "For now I just want you two to go on home and sleep. Make sure you have all of your stuff ready."
Kenshin and Battousai bowed and left the room. They walked in through the waiting room and passed the other new students that were coming into the school. Both of them got heated stares from various girls and jealous death glares from the girls' boyfriends. One of the heated stares were received by Yukishiro, Tomoe. She didn't have a boyfriend yet. And she seemed to be the same age as Kenshin and Battousai. Which is nineteen.
She had a purplish kind of hair that didn't make her look like she dyed her hair. She also had attractive violet eyes like Kenshin. She wore baggy, green pants with lots of pockets. She also wore a white blouse with light pink stripes on it. Or is it the other way around? She had her hair put into a high ponytail with a green bandana covering it. And she had pale white skin. And all of this put together, it made her look like the living dead in a new fashion! (I made her pale in my story!)
"Yukishiro, Tomoe!" Shishio called from inside his office.
Tomoe broke her heated gaze from Kenshin and Battousai so she could get up. 'I am sure lucky to be in this school!' she thought as she walked into Shishio's office swinging her hips in a seductive way, then closing the door behind her.
On the other side of the large school, a girl about eighteen with blue eyes ran through the halls at an amazing speed thought not possible for a girl. 'I have to get to the office!' she thought franticly over and over again. Then after she turned the last hall, she saw the office door and stopped running. She started to walk at a slow pace, but then decided to hurry. So she strode all the way up to the door and was about to open it when it opened for her. "OUCH!" she cried.
Battousi really wanted to get out of the room. He didn't like the vibes he was getting from that crazy girl that he saw giving him heated stares. He nearly ran up to the door and rammed it down when he remembered he couldn't break school property. So he strode up to the door and swung it hard and then heard a cry of pain that seemed to come from the door. When heard this, he looked behind the door to see a girl about eighteen yrs. old holding her stomach and forehead while doubling over in pain. Kenshin came up beside his brother and looked.
When Kenshin saw her, he nearly screamed for help when he realized the door knob just hit her in the stomach and the door hit her on the forehead. He walked up to her and checked to see if she was okay, then he turned to his brother. "Weren't you watching where you were swinging that door?" he asked calmly but his voice leaving a faint hint of anger and his eyes having a tinge of amber.
Battousai stared hard at his brother. "Of course I was watching! It was her that wasn't watching where she was going!" Battousai argued.
The young girl that got hit finally recovered and gained back her sanity and stared at the one closest to the door. Her blue eyes first flashed with pain, but then when you look closer, you can see that she was furious. "Did you open the door?" she asked quite calmly despite her madness.
It was strange for Kenshin and Battousai. They both didn't notice her ki until she was mad. Both of them tore his gaze from his brother and forced himself to look at her. Both of them were intrigued.
She wore denim pants with a light blue shirt that had words across that said 'Sassy', a blue jacket and Nike shoes. She had raven black hair and a creamy colored kind of skin. She had her long hair tied in a blue ribbon. Her long bangs were pushed away revealing sapphire blue eyes that held a lot of life. She was way different from that other girl that looked like a corpse.
Kenshin just stared at her. He loved her liveliness. 'She must be life itself!' he thought.
Battousai stared at her as well. He too loved her liveliness. But there was something more that he like about her but he couldn't put a finger on it. 'Maybe it's just her anger that's getting to my head' he thought. "Yes it was me who opened the door." He said rather coldly.
She just stared at him. Then she looked at Kenshin. She nearly screamed when she saw Battousai again. Or was it someone else? When she looked again, she noticed there was a difference between these two. This one had a kinder kind of ki. Then she dusted herself of the imaginary dirt that was on her and stared hard at Battousai. "Hello! My name is Kamiya, Kaoru. What's your name?" She stuck out her hand in a friendly way and waited with a smiling face.
Battousai just stared at her hand and glared at it as if it was a foreign object. Then he realized what she was trying to do.
Make friends…
He didn't have a lot of friends in the past for they all feared him for his uncontrollable anger. They only befriended him for his money. When he found this out, he had a death spree. He killed two of those 'friends' and all the others were injured. So what was the difference between him and this girl? Well for one thing, he only made friends with boys. Second of all, what if she only wants Kenshin and him for the money? "Leave me alone" he said in a flat voice and turned around.
Kaoru's smile was wiped off her face and a frown took its place. 'Not another one Kami.' She thought. After that she plastered on her smile again and turned to Kenshin. "What's your name?" she asked this time withdrawing her hand.
"Himura Kenshin" Kenshin chirped.
Kaoru smiled. "Are you two brothers?" she asked.
"You just stated the obvious!" Battousai snapped with his back still facing Kaoru and Kenshin.
Kaoru just sent a mini death glare at Battousai's back and then turned back to Kenshin. "You two must be new here. I'm new as well. But I already know the shortcuts, corridors, halls, and classrooms already."
Kenshin was curious. "Why?"
"My father is the one that suggested to build the school. He was the one that designed this place and he showed me the blueprints of this school. It took years for this school to be built, but he showed me anyway." She said. But when Kenshin looked closer, he saw that there were tears in her eyes that refused to fall. "He died two months ago." She said hesitantly.
Kenshin stared at her with compassionate eyes full of caring. "It's okay." He stated.
Kaoru looked up and stared sadly at Kenshin and nodded.
Battousai snorted. This was getting too emotional for him. "You people are too emotional. Can't you people act a little better than that?"
Kaoru stared in disbelief at Battousai. He already got her mad over a door accident and now he's trying to get her mad again by laughing at her father's death?! This was getting out of hand. He already was trying her patience and was succeeding. "Will you SHUT UP?!"
Battousai stared in amusement as Kaoru started to erupt like a volcano. "I don't have to shut up. You're not my mother." He stated.
Kaoru had enough. She was now thankful for her defense classes when she was little. They taught her how to defend herself against any criminal. And they also taught her to always carry something in case the other tantics they taught her didn't work. So what Kaoru did was grab the knife hidden in her sleeve and ran to Battousai. The knife was about three inches long with a sharp tip. She placed the knife above her head and was about to drag it down on Battousai's shoulder when a hand stopped her.She looked at the hand and followed it's arm, and it led to… Battousai.
Battousai stared in amusement as she fruitlessly tried to hit him. He placed his hand above the one with the knife and with the other hand he covered her mouth. "Don't try to do that again. And by the looks of it you haven't heard of my name yet. My name is Battousai." He stated.
Kaoru gasped at his name. She had heard this name somewhere. 'Where have I heard this name before?' she thought. Then the answer popped up in her head like a popcorn kernel. "My dad warned me of you when I was a little girl. You should be in jail for all of the crimes you have commited!" Kaoru stated.
"No I don't. My father was kind enough to cover up for me. He paid the government enough money for them to shut up and keep their mouths closed." Battousai said as he let go of Kaoru's hand.
Kaoru stared angrily at him then let all of her anger pass away as if it were a rain cloud that moved on. She started smiling, and that confused the Himura brothers.
'Wasn't she just fuming a minute ago?' both of them thought. They kept on thinking until they heard her talk again.
"I can't get this mad on the first day! It won't be a good first day in school now would it?" she asked the two brothers that were now standing side by side.
Kenshin just nodded and nudged his brother's arm with his elbow painfully.
Battousai nodded at his brother's painful elbowing. "Well now, I think it's time for all of us to go our separate ways. Let's go home Kenshin."
