A Rare Find
By: Rikku Himura
Unfortountly I do not own Kenshin. If I did I can assure you that Kenshin and Kaoru would hook up a lot faster! Erm, what episode do they hook up in?
Chapter 2
Daughter?
Lena sat in a corner of the dojo watching Kauru and Yahko practing their swordsmanship. Kenshin was outside doing laundry and Megumi had gone back to the clinic. Lena sighed starting to get bored. She sat her bear down and snuck out of the dojo. Glancing around she didn't see anyone. Carefully she walked out of the dojo, she watched a bird take flight into the sky. Lena didn't see someone enter the dojo.
"Hey!" A man's voice shouted at her. Startled she looked at the speaker who was dressed in white clothing. "Who are you?"
She did the first thing that came to her mind, she screamed. The man started walking towards her asking her to calm down. That only made her scream louder. She turned to run, but she ran into someone's leg. Lena looked up and found the owner, Kenshin. Kenshin sighed, relif flooding his face. She started crying and reached up towards Kenshin who knelt down and picked her up.
"Hello Sano," Kenshin said. He was gently rubbing Lena's back and trying not to laugh at Sanoske.
"Kenshin," Sano nodded, "who's the little one? Almost gave me a heart attack."
"This is Lena," Kenshin replied with a smile.
"Oh," Sano stated grinning, "Your daughter?"
Kenshin, Sano, and Kauro were sitting on the porch. Kenshin was re-telling Lena's story to Sano, Kauro was holding the girls bear. They had sent Yahko and Lena off to play.
"The poor girl," Sano finally said. "What's going to happen to her?"
"I don't know," Kauro answer before Kenshin could.
A few minutes later they heard a thud and then a shriek, which caused Kenshin to jump to his feet. Then they saw Lena running towards them clinging to a wooden swod laughing.
"Lena!" Yahiko yelled running after her. "Give it back!!"
The three on the porch started laughing as the watched Yahiko chase after Lena trying to get his sword back. After being chased for awhile, Lena triped causing her to drop the sword. Yahiko swooped down and picked it up crying out in triump, causing everone to laugh harder.
"Time for bed," Kenshin stated. Carrying both Lena and her bear inside.
"So, she is his daughter." Sano said after watching them dissapear inside.
"No," Kauro replied, "she's an orphan."
"Not for much longer," Yahiko stated.
"Meaning?" Kauro asked.
"Meaning it looks like Kenshin wants to keep her," Sano answered.
"Lena Himura," Yahiko laughed.
"Might be just what you two need," Sano said with a grin.
