Well, I have been away for a long time...but I have decided it is time to make my return. Only the story I am currently working on will not be a Dragonball Z story...it will be based off of Rurouni Kenshin *drool* You guys let me know if it looks interesting...if you think it does, I will start posting chapters.
Disclaimer: I do not and will never own, Rurouni Kenshin or any of its characters...
Summary:
Some people say that everyone has a twin. I have found this to be true. My name is Kamiya Kaoru. I used to live on planet Earth until one day, that all changed. You see, I lived in a time where parents arranged their children's marriages. We had no choice in the matter. And I, for one, did not want to get married...ever.
It's not that I had anything against the guy. I had gotten to know him for a week and Himura Kenshin was one of the sweetest guys I had ever known. He was gentle, caring and he was rich. And for some reason he really did love me, though I don't know why. It's just...oh, I don't know. I was just having too much fun living my life! I wasn't ready to settle down and have children or anything. I mean, I was only nineteen, was I even mature enough to handle being married? I didn't want to get stuck being a slave, chained to one man for my whole life. But mostly, I was just scared. So what did I do? I ran.
I picked up the letter my parents had given to me the day they told me of my arranged marriage. One I still hadn't opened, I was too angry. I had a gut feeling that was going to be full of bad news, mostly to do with Kenshin. I packed a small bag and threw the letter inside, then headed into the forest, about a half days walk from my home. I began to hear voices in the distance behind me, calling my name. They were already on to me. I took off running full throttle. I took one glance behind me and could see them in the far distance searching the woods. Then I bumped into something, or rather, someone. As I stood up, my breath escaped my lungs. The girl standing before me had my face! She was dressed in ripped jeans and a tight shirt that had tears in it and had smudges of dirt across her face but she was most definitely me.
The search party was still a ways away, so we sat down to talk. She too had been running through the woods, away from some man. She didn't say the reason why she was running, though I later would find out for myself. She said that she stopped at a clearing in the forest. She saw two large stones with strange writing on it. She then walked between them to study them more closely. She told me that for a second she saw a bright light, then everything became clear again. She heard someone calling her name so she ran, and then bumped into me. But this is the strange part, she was from a completely different planet, yet we shared the same name. She comes from a planet called Areth. But what freaked her out was the fact this planet looked exactly like hers. A mirror universe!
As the search party got closer, I suggested an idea. She was obviously running from something, we both were. So I suggested switching places. She was hesitant at first, but she most definitely did not want to return to her planet, and we didn't have much time until the search party was upon us, so she agreed. We exchanged clothes with eachother and she led me to the two strange rocks about 50 feet away. I felt bad at first, knowing I was leading her into a marriage she had no chance of getting out of. And if she tried to get out of it by telling my parents of the portal between planets, they'd lock her in a psych ward. So I ignored the rotten feeling of guilt and walked through the portal and away from a marriage I utterly despised.
As I look back, I made the biggest mistake ever. My mistake was not asking why she was running, or who she was running from. She knew all about that portal and never said a word to me. I was so naive to believe a word she said. Because, you see, as soon as I stepped through that portal, I found myself a slave anyways. A slave to Hitokiri Battousai...
This is my story...
Well, what do you guys think of the plot? Do you want to see where I
take this thing? Do you have any suggestions of what you would like to see
happen later in the story or where you'd like this to go? Let me know.
This story will cover most of the character's feelings. You will get an insight into their thoughts and emotions, so you will see me switching frequently between Planet Areth and Planet Earth. Well, don't forget to let me know what you think of this.
