I have this idea:
it's called "A Jumbled Fantasy" and it's all the classic disney films rolled into one Inuyasha and Rurouni Kenshin crossover. there would be lots couples. Aoshi and Misao (of course): Beauty and the Beast, Inuyasha and Kagome: i was thinking Sleeping Beauty, Sano and Megumi: Aladin, Miroku and Sango: The Little Mermaid, Sesshy and Rin: Cinderella,
...so if you want me to rite it than tell me...kay?
-Chapter 2-
Aoshi spent the whole day teaching me the basics of Kenpo, how to punch, kick, flip. He was a good teacher and before I knew it, I had gotten the hang of things. I could already do several katas from memory, granted my movements weren't nearly as quick as Aoshi's, but I wasn't expecting to pick it up that fast.
Every time someone knocked on the door or called out looking for Aoshi he would answer saying that he was "busy". He didn't let another soul inside that training room while we were in there. It made me feel somewhat special, that the Emperor himself would rather spend the whole day teaching a lowly concubine like myself how to fight, something I didn't even need to know, rather than spending his precious time with learned scholars or more beautiful concubines who could actually give him some sort of pleasure.
It was late in the evening, and I could feel my body was tired; the Kenpo was taking a toll on me. I wasn't used to the physical strain. Aoshi watched me intently as I went through on more kata, but as I landed a flip my feet got tangled and I tripped over myself. I waited with my eyes shut tight for the thud of my body hitting the floor, but instead I felt something softer.
I slowly opened my eyes to find myself face to face with the Emperor. His dark blue eyes were wide with shock, as were mine. We both stared at each other, unable to move. His hot breath smelled of green tea as he exhaled heavily. There was merely a hair's width between us and the closeness was sending chills down my spine.
He's so close…I can feel his heart…it's so fast! It can't be because of me?
I stopped my thoughts before my hopes got to high and gathered up my courage to brake the growing silence,
"Gomen-nasai! Please forgive me your majesty!"
"Aa…" was all he said.
I sat up carefully and decided I should bow. Unfortunately, Aoshi thought I was getting up completely, not just sitting up so that I could bow. As you could imagine, we ran right into each other. Our foreheads met, which was painful, but so did our lips, which swiftly made me forget all other pain along with the rest of the world.
Sadly, before I could really take in the moment, my conscience stepped in and I quickly pulled back, breaking the accidental kiss. My hand flew to my mouth and I covered it, embarrassed.
"Gomen…" I whispered breathlessly.
I just kissed the Emperor! I just kissed the Emperor! Oh Kami-sama, I just kissed the Emperor!
Before he could answer, I fled. I ran as fast I could, down the hallways, back to the safety of the bedroom I shared with Kaoru. She would know what to do. She had had plenty of experience with boys…well Himura at least.
I burst through the shoji doors, nearly breaking them in the process. Kaoru stared at me wide eyed from her place on the floor. The ivory comb in her hand dropped and so did her jaw. I must have looked dreadful with sweat glazing my entire body and my hair falling out of its long braid.
Deciding I didn't care how filthy I was, I fell face first into my soft futon. I vaguely heard Kaoru stand up and walk over to me. And I felt her poke me hard in the ribs.
"Ow!" I yelled, sitting up swiftly.
I stared at her bewildered.
"What are you wearing?!" She asked loudly.
"What?"
She poked me again.
"Why are you dressed like Kenshin?"
She's actually worried about how I'm dressed?!
Looking down at myself, I realized that in my hasty retreat I had forgotten to grab my kimono. Aoshi had said that I couldn't possibly do Kenpo in a kimono, so I had changed into the smallest men's training clothes I could find (probably Himura's now that I thought of it).
I sighed heavily and recounted the whole story back to Kaoru.
"So?" I asked.
She looked at me confused and slightly dazed.
"So what?" She asked back.
I rolled my eyes.
"So…what do I do about the Emperor?"
Her confusion only seemed to grow immensely.
"Why do you need to do something?"
"I kissed him for Kami-sama's sake!"
Suddenly, Kaoru reached out and took my face in between her slender hands. Her dark blue eyes stared at me, surprisingly, with amusement.
"Misao-chan, you're his concubine," she said, while laughing, "You're supposed to kiss him!"
Angrily, I swatted my friend's hands away from my face and glared down at her as she continued to roll around on the floor giggling like a drunken hyena. Before I could stop it, a smile broke out onto my face. I fell to the floor, laughing till my sides hurt, and that's how I fell asleep.
Kaoru and I woke up the next morning to the sound of…horse hooves? I cautiously slid open the shoji from my position on the floor (too lazy to get up), peeked outside, and nearly had my nose stomped flat by a pair of tiny geta. Promptly shutting the door, I turned back to Kaoru who looked at me questioningly.
"No horses," I shook my head, "Just a stampede of giddy concubines in geta sandals."
"I wonder what the occasion is." Kaoru thought out loud.
"Yeah…" I agreed.
"The Emperor is coming to visit the women's quarters!" an anonymous voice answered our question from somewhere outside our door.
WHAT?!
"Aoshi-sama…" I whispered, breathlessly.
My eyes went to Kaoru, who was already rummaging through our drawers in search of something fancy for me to wear.
Aoshi stood perfectly still in the middle of the women's courtyard surrounded by an enormous mass of giggling girls. From the very back of the crowd, I couldn't tell if his expression was angry or scared, but knowing Aoshi, it was probably neither, just an icy mask.
Himura, who had come along, I assumed, as crowd control, was keeping the girls at least three yards away from his Majesty. How he managed to do that much amazed me to no end. I was genuinely afraid for his life when I saw some of the death glares he was receiving from the crazed concubines. Poor Kaoru next to me was going to bite her nails right off her fingertips she was so nervous. I watched, alarmed as Himura pulled out his sword. However, the concubines seemed unfazed.
"We need backup your Highness." He called out to Aoshi.
"Aa. Sanosuke-san should do it."
"Hai," Himura agreed, "Sano."
Suddenly, I heard screams to my left, and the crowd of girls dispersed as a tall, muscular man with hair that reminded me, vaguely, of a rooster stepped into the sunlight and bowed.
"You rang." He said, sarcastically.
The rooster-head smiled and the concubines swooned---one girl fainted.
Himura shook his head disapprovingly.
"Sano, you're not helping."
"Oi! If any one of you broads step any closer to his Majesty, you're dead!"
The girls immediately fell back several feet.
"Sano, a little nicer?" Himura chided.
"Hey, Kami-sama only made my looks perfect. Cut me some slack here."
Both Kenshin and Aoshi rolled their eyes.
"So what are we here for?" Sano asked.
"I'm looking for someone." Aoshi answered.
"Wanna be more specific?"
Aoshi glared.
"Your highness." Sano added hastily.
All of a sudden, I felt someone pushing me. I looked back and realized it was Kaoru. She wove her way through the crowd until we were almost at the very front of the mob. With one final shove I found myself looking up at the Emperor.
"Aoshi-sama." I breathed.
