Author notes: this is my first fic so be nice. Please review and give me more ideas for later chapters and I might use them. This is strictly Misao and Aoshi and all though I do use a lot from the show it is different so read and review.
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters except yuke.
Chapter.1
"Bring the woman to me." Kanryu commands one of his guards. I, Aoshi wait in the shadows, leaning against the wall. The other members of the oniwa Banshu are out on a mission and won't be expected back until noon the next day. Sense I refused to be a baby sitter to the little girl being held in the other room. I decided to stay here and find out what all the fuss was about.
I look up as the guard walks over with a woman trailing behind him. She stops in front of Kanryu. She looks about 19 or 20 she'd probely reach my chin. Kanryu stands there with that cocky smirk that made me want to punch him. Although, it doesn't seem to faze her as she stands in front of him boldly. For that I admire her, not many people can stand up to Kanryu. She is wearing a long coat that reaches the floor with the hood pulled over her head. All that is showing is the front of her face. Which I can't see due to the angle at which I am standing.
"What can I do for you beautiful" His smile broadens as his hand reaches up to touch her face.
"Or are you just here to see me" Her hand reaches up and grabs his wrist before he is able to touch her. Her grip is stronger than that of a normal woman, or man for that matter. The smirk drops from Kanryu's face as her grip tightens on his wrist.
"I am here for the girl you kidnapped." She answered still with a tight grip on his wrist.
Kanryu flinched with a look of pain. Suddenly the cocky smirk is back bigger than before.
"But I didn't kidnap the girl, she had nowhere to go so I generously took her in" He spoke confidently. Her hand dropped from his wrist as if she'd been slapped. Kanryu rubbed his hurt wrist with his other hand. The woman's hands fisted tightly at her side until her knuckles turned white. I am sure her eyes were full of hatred for the man in front of her.
"You killed her family and that is why she was alone." She spoke with such anger Kanryu' smirk faltered again, he actually looked intimidated by her. The guards got ready to attack and she prepared to defend herself.
"Wait" Kanryu spoke stopping his men from attacking. "I don't want any problems in my home, bring in the child." Two of the guards left. The woman let down her guard slightly. It was silent for about 3 minutes until the doors opened again and in walked the two guards with the girl asleep in one of their arms.
Both Kanryu and the woman turn toward the two guards with the little girl. Now I can see her face clearly, I was right in guessing she was about 19 or 20 years old. Her small and dainty lips and nose made her look delicate. Her wide, deep, blue eyes made her look innocent. Kanryu, even though he is an idiot, was correct in calling her beautiful. The gourd with the child walked over to her and gave her the girl. The woman cradles the child with both arms, pulling her protectively to her chest. The woman gazed tenderly down at the girl for a little while. She than looked back at Kanryu with a guarding look.
"Thank you" She turned to leave but than stopped and looked back at Kanryu. "One more thing" she paused to look down at the child. At the same time Kanryu looks nervous waiting for her to finish.
"May I get a blanket from you? It is chilly out there." She had a teasing glint in her eyes, like she knew she was making him nervous. He relaxed and commanded one of the maids in the room to grab one. In a few seconds the maid was back with a blanket which she handed to the woman.
"Thank you" she said to the maid. The woman turned than and walked out with the girl still fast asleep in her arms. The second the door shut, Kanryu turned to me he looked really ticked off.
"Aoshi, go after them kill the child but bring the woman back to me, alive." He had that stupid smirk back on. I started walking out. The only reason I am going after her is because I have some questions of my own like whom she is.
Well that's the first chapter, I do have some of the other chapters written but if I like some of your ideas I will try to find a way to add it in. The whole thing is written in Aoshi's prospective I just hope he's not to OC he isn't the easiest character to read. I will try to get the other chapters up soon. Read and review see you soon. Bye
