No Longer Alone
Chapter 2: 10 years Later
Warnings: Violence and some cussing. Oc on Enishi's part and Kenshin is Battousai so he is going to seem different from the Kenshin we love.
I Do not Own RK!
The Battousai ran through the bloody streets of Kyoto jumping from roof to roof a shadow among the shadows. His golden eyes burn with pure hatred as he continued to track down the crazed mercenary who refused to stop killing Halflings and humans even after the king and his laws had been eradicated for a year now. The air seemed to grow colder as he drew closer to his target.
"Jin-eh," He yelled as he came face to face with the psychotic killer. "The war is over, Jin-eh, it is time to stop this senseless blood shed."
"Won't stop…never stop…" Jin-eh answered back. "You will have to kill me to stop me…" And with that a cold but strong freezing whirlwind blew carrying Jin-eh with it and forcing Battousai backward. "Come…Come get me Battousai…COME FIND BEFORE I KILL AGAIN."
Battousai raced after the ice twister his magic a cocoon of protective fire around him. His rage fueling him helping him move faster. "I will stop you Jin-eh if it is the last thing I do."
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
Enishi waited patiently for the return of his brother while also standing guard at the Inn that was a temporary base for the resistance. Though there was not really much to resist any more. The king was dead as well as his laws, however there were still those who believed that Halflings and humans were weak and needed to be destroyed or enslaved. Which was why Halfling and humans were either in hiding or fighting to rid the world of these injustices.
"Is he back yet?" Misao head seem to pop out of no were as she swung upside down by the limb of a tree right in front of Enishi's face.
"If he was would I be standing here." Enishi questioned sarcastically to his adopted little sister.
"No, I guess not." Misao pouted as she jumped down and righted herself. Though Misao was now eighteen she still acted like a child which both annoyed and amused Enishi to no end. Many times he had wondered what Tomoe would have been like if she had a chance to grow. 'We are safe as long as you keep smiling down on us, sister.' Enishi thought as he imagined Tomoe's young and happy face.
"Oh look, Enishi, someone is coming!" Misao shouted as she grabbed the older demon's arm yanking to get his attention.
"Yes someone is coming." Enishi replied smoothly. "But I do not believe it is our brother." Enishi pulled his arm free and readied his Katana.
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
The Battousai had finally caught up with the crazed demon. Blades and magic clashed as they fought each other on the out skirts of town. Jin-eh's mad laugh seemed to echo off the walls of the surrounding buildings. His grin was large as he stared down the most feared warrior demon in all of Japan.
"Hahaha…I am sorry to tell you this but your blade will not taste my blood tonight…hmmhmmmhm." His ice blue eyes glowed and changed red as he sent a fire ball hurtling towards the Battousai.
"I disagree, Jin-eh, this ends now." Kenshin answered back as his eyes turned blue while he formed a shield of water before his eyes turned gold and blade glowed with a yellow energy his personal magic.
"Do you? Well then…how will the Battousai protect his family if he is to busy trying to kill me…hahaha…meme me!" Jin-eh crazed babbling echoed in Kenshin's ears as he abandoned the fight and ran as fast as he could to his temporary home that was on the other side of town. "Run…Run…RUN…BATTOUSAI. Don't worry to much, I am sure they are already dead…ha-ha….dead. Dead. DEAD!" Jin-eh's smile widened as the read haired demon ran further away until he was no longer in sight. "Good, good, good, I still have time to play..haha…play,play,play. How I enjoy my play."
Kenshin's feet didn't seem to move fast enough as he ran as fast as his legs and magic could carry him. He wasn't going to lose them not Misao, not Enishi. Not anyone under his protection. Not now not if he had anything to do with it.
Enishi's blade clashed with the blade of the broom haired demon. Sparks flew from Enishi's hand as he sent his magic to attack this new enemy, which the demon barely dodged before his eyes glowed white as he sent a blast of wind toward Enishi. Misao quickly stepped in a pushed the air away before it could harm her adopted brother while throwing two kunai at the demon. One of the kunai scratched across the enemy's cheek. Enishi and Misao both watched as their attacker's eyes changed to a light blue in order to heal the small wound. The blond broom haired demon looked around calmly as if noticing for the first time the large circle of warriors that had been gathering ever since he had gotten here.
"You are surrounded you can not win. Give up." Enishi spoke calmly as he stared at the demon who's hair seemed to defy gravity.
"I think it is about time I introduced myself to ya'll. My name is Cho and while we are here I would like to make an announcement." Cho spoke loudly as more demons, half demons, and humans came closer to him and Enishi all of them seemed to have their blades drawn and ready for a fight.
"And what might that be?" Enishi spoke calmly as he stepped in front of Misao hiding her from Cho's vision.
Placing his sword on his shoulder and stepping out of his fighting stance a smirk plastered on his face. "The war is long from over." Cho stated calmly while casually running his hand through his broom shaped hair. "Oh and pay back is a bitch."
Enishi stepped forward readying to charge his opponent only to be thrown back by a cataclysmic blast.
Enishi woke to the sound of yelling and screaming he watched in a daze as the beings around him worked to put out the raging inferno that was the inn. Looking around he realized that two things were missing: one, Were did the enemy go and two, were was Misao. The enemy didn't matter to him but what did matter was his adopted sister. "Misao…Misao…Misao where are you?" He called as he got up from his prone position. Enishi couldn't see any sign of her. "Has anyone seen Misao?" He yelled into the chaos around him hoping and praying that she was alright.
"Enishi…here." The calm and strong voice of his elder brother reached him and as he turned toward it he saw his brother kneeling over a small form. Enishi walk as fast as he could in his slightly still dazed state as he made his way over to Kenshin. "Is she…hurt."
"She is fine." Kenshin answered soothingly while looking up to assess his brothers condition before turning back to the girl on the ground. "Just a bump on her head and a few singed hairs."
"I was distracted, I let this happen." Enishi spoke self loathingly.
"Do not blame yourself brother you are not the only one who was distracted." Kenshin replied with equal self loathing. " It appears that this war is not yet over."
Hi all those who are reading this story I know Kaoru has still not made her appearance but She WIll be in the next chapter.
