From Opposite Ends Of The Earth
Chapter 1:Welcome to America
She looks out the small window. The cars look like ants from up here. And they get smaller, and smaller, until they eventually disapear. She opens her journal and begins to write.
Dear Diary,
I am Kamiya Kaoru(17). I'm in an airplane right now. When I look out the window, the cities become smaller and smaller. I guess that means that we're getting higher pretty fast. I'm flying to Maryland (wherever that is...I think it's somewhere on the eastern part of the U.S.A). I've never been here before so I'm not exactly the perfect person to come from Japan. But I can't do much about that now, now can I? Well anyway, I'm here to deliver a message to a client. I don't know what he looks like yet...but if I'm going to spend a week with this man, he better be hott.
Sincerely,
KK
Two hours later the announcer-guy came on the intercome. "Attention all passengers. We are now approaching Baltimore, Maryland. We advise you to keep your seatbelts on until we land."
About five minutes passed and Kaoru was getting her luggage. When she stepped through the doors, a tall, stiff man approached her. He wore a all black suit and dark sunglasses.
"Ms. Kamiya, I pressume." His voice was low, but official.
"Yes." He stepped closer to her and took her bags. Another man came and took the rest from her.
"The car is this way.", he told her while walking away. She followed in amazement. Wow...this man must be really rich to afford these body gaurds. They look way too official-istic. They didn't say anything to each other for the ride.
When they pulled up to the mansion, Kaoru couldn't believe her eyes. Flowers trailed the entrance, all different colors. And behind those flowers, stood more butlers and maids. She was right...this man HAD to be rich to afford such a bid house and bulters and it must cost a fortune for all those flowers. She stared as the road-like driveway became a parking lot, and then a regular parkway. The limo stopped. As did Kaoru. Suddenly the door was opened for her. She stepped out, seeing that it was a completely different person. But that was to be expected in a situation like this.
She was greeted by at least 70 different people before actually entering the mansion. Once she did, everything seemed even more amazing then outside. Two flights of stairs ran on the sides of the walls, the floor looked as if She were the first person to step on it, and pictures hung from everywhere in perfect poportion. She just couldn't stop looking around.
A name was called out and a man walked out from behind a white door. He was tall, very built, and looked like he could kill you if to say a mere word. His hair was very long...almost to his butt actually. A shiver went down Kaoru's back as he walked towards her. His voice just freaked her to her limbs.
"You are the agent I sent for, correct?"
"Y-Yes, sir." She politely bowed.
He returned her bow and smiled. "I am Seijuro Hiko and welcome to my home. I assure you, you will be comfortable here. Every of you desires will be met."
That sounded so much like a commandment, that she almost said "Yes,sir." to him. But instead, her reply was: "Thank you, sir." He nodded with great opproval, sending the servants back to their duties. While I was following the butler to my room, we passed one that was unbelieveably loud. Music of who-knows-what was screaming out.
0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0(That night)
Kaoru stared up at the ceiling. I can't beileve I'm actually here...in a mansion, in America. She sighed. A loud rush of music screamed out again. She suddenly shot up in her bed. It was cold and dark, from what she could see. She clapped and the lamp beside her came on. Kaoru opened her door and the music became a whole lot louder. She couldn't take this raket! She walked out into the hallway toward the room. She had to hold herself down so that she wouldn't run away. So she flew open the door and saw a boy, about her age, lying down and looking at the ceiling.
He noticed her and quickly turned down the music. She calmed down a little bit. "Can you not hear?"
He looked at her. "Of course! And who are you to question my hearing! I don't know you!" This boy seemed to pissed her off a lot already. She decided not to start a fight on her first day in such a big place, so she just walked away. The boy got up and followed her.
"Hey! What do you think your doing? You don't just walk away from a agrument! Where are you going!"
no respnse. She just kept on walking.
"Hey! I'm talking to you!" Kaoru stopped and turned around to him. He seemed shocked by it, though he said nothing. "Can't you see that people are trying to get some sleep? How do you expect anyone to get some rest around her with all that noise!"
He stared at her for a second. "Wait...are you that new agent mysensei sent for?"
Kaoru looked at him. "Yes. I am Kamiya Kaoru." The boy didn't say anything until she turned to walk away again.
"My name is Himura Kenshin. I had no idea that you were here already. I thought you were one of my uncle's waked-out girlfriends." Kaoru froze. Girlfriend! I'm like 10 years younger than that man...how in the world could he mistake me for his girlfriend! And besides, with such fear just being near him, how can he attract anyone?"
Kenshin looked at her. "Are you okay?" She snapped back. "Uh, yeah. I'm fine. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to get some rest for tomorrow." With that she walked to her room.
Kenshin watched as she did so. He turned around and walked down the flight of stairs to his sensei's room. once he approached the humungis (not sure how to spell that) door, he grabbed the knob and flew open the door. Hiko was snoring himself into a coma. Kenshin didn't pay that any mind.
Instead, he hit him on the head until he was forced to wake up. Hiko grabbed his arm before he could hit him again.
"Dammit, brat! What are you trying to do? Murder me in my sleep!" Kenshin glared at him. "You could do that on your own with that horrid snoring!"
That's what you hit me with my sword for? To tell me that I'm snoring too loud? I'm surprised you can hear me with all that loud music. And you on the other side of the house, you imbusle!" Kenshin glared more now. "That not what I came to tell you, you ass! I came to ask you about that agent of yours."
Hiko looked at the younger boy. "You like her already?"
Kenshin froze. "What? I didn't say that! I just wanted to know why she is here?"
"I already told you, she's here to deliver a message to me about the Tokugawa company in Japan. So don'tstart getting any flirtatious ideas, you got it?" Kenshin turned red. "I don't like her! She's an annoyance! She just comes into my bedroom, unwelcomed, and starts complaining about my hearing." The older man started to laugh.
"Huh? What's so funny!"
He turned back over on his bed. "You brat, that's exactly what you do to me. Maybe having her around may knock so sense into you." Kenshin backed away. "Wh-well...your different...sorta. I'm stuck with you no matter what."
"Well she's not leaving until next week. So I suggest you get used to her." The young boy widened his eyes. "WHAT!" Hiko began to laugh. "Yep. And she'll be attending your school as well. Now isn't that just wonderful? A girl who won't actually flirt with you." Kenshin hisst his sensei goodbye and shut the door behind him. He walked back up to his room and threw himself on his bed.
Great! Just great! Now I have to deal with her at school as well! She better not ruin my reputation or I'll...sigh This is gonna be a weird week, he thought.
AN: I know, it's kinda short.
I would like to know how I did so can you...PLEASE REVIEW
