Chapter 5:My New Life...
Miko:Hiii!! Ha, fooled ya! You thought it was the end, didn't you? Hee hee... well, here's chapter 5!!
Disclaimers: I own nothing but Ami....
The sun shown brightly on his face, waking him from his sleep. "It looks like it's going to be a nice day, Ami?" he asked, stretching lazily. When no answer came, he turned quickly to find an empty space next to him. 'Where is she?' he wondered, slowly getting out of the bed.
Kenshin quickly made his way through the whole house to find it totally empty. "Ami?" he called again, reaching the dining area. His eyes then fell unto a paper left on the small table. He quickly ran to the center of the room and picked up what seemed to be a note on Ami's whereabouts...At least that was what he hoped...
"Kenshin-san... I have gone to Kyoto to work. I left early this morning to get an early start. I'm sorry I didn't mention it earlier neither did I say hello or goodbye this morning. Please feel free to do whatever you want... After all, it's your house, too. Ne? I will be back by late afternoon, so you shouldn't worry. Ja ne, Kenshin-san." he read it aloud.
"She works in Kyoto. I wonder what she does there... Saa, time to make some breakfast." Kenshin told himself, putting the note back where he found it.
In Kyoto
"Oi! Did you hear what I said?!" the voice yelled, breaking her thoughts. "Nani?" Ami asked, startled by her friend's sudden outburst. "I said what is it like to live with the Hitokiri Battousai?" her friend repeated. "What are you talking about, Akane-chan? Why would I be living with the Battousai when I live deep in the woods?" she asked another question. 'How does she know about Kenshin-san?'
"Are you sure? Word had spread that the only reason you haven't been to work was because you're hiding the battousai in your house. Some people said they saw him." Akane continued as she stopped what she was doing.
Ami and her closest friend, Akane work in one of the largest laundry corporations in Kyoto. Every morning they would have to get up just after dawn and make their way to the city. There, they would take customers' clothes and would do their laundry at the nearby river.
"Oh, well... I just wanted to see if the rumors were true. I guess they're not because I trust you." her friend smiled. "Arigatou." Ami replied, wringing out the pants she had been washing.
"Listen... I have to close up the store early today. I'm getting several important visitors today and we need to use the building. So, just finish up that last load and go home." their boss said, coming up to them. "Hai." Ami and Akane replied simultaneously. After several moments of silence, he left them to finish their work.
"I'm done with mine. How are you doing, Ami-chan?" Akane asked, after their boss had left. "I have just a shirt and pants left. You can leave if you want." Ami replied, taking the final shirt that she had. "Now why would I leave you? You're my best friend... That would be wrong." she replied, giving her a friendly hug. "Arigatou. But I insist. Daijobou, I can finish here. See you tomorrow?" Ami replied, smiling.
"Fine. But you better get home okay. Promise me." Akane said, giving her a stern look. "Hai. You better get home safely, too. Ne? See you." Ami replied, giving her the same look. Akane nodded and picked up her basket, waving as she started to make her way back to the store. 'If I want to get home early to Kenshin-san, I'd better hurry.' Ami thought to herself, now grabbing the pants that were left in the basket.
Back in Ami's home
"I never thought it would be lonely to be by myself." Kenshin stated, slowly drinking his warm tea. And soon...
*Knock* *Knock*
"That's probably her. Demo, it's a little too early..." Kenshin said, hearing the knocking at the door. He gently placed his cup down and grabbed the sword next to him. 'And why would she knock?' he continued his thoughts, slowly making his way towards the door. When he reached it, Kenshin prepared himself for anything that could be outside of the door... He slowly slid the door open...and...
"What's wrong, Kenshin-san? You look like you saw a ghost!" Ami exclaimed, dropping the heavy bag. It landed at her feet as she quickly embraced Kenshin. "It's nothing. Why are you home so early?" Kenshin replied, looking down at her. "The boss said he would close up early today because of an important meeting. I went shopping for tonight's dinner. Is everything okay?" she asked, noticing his worried look.
"Aa... It's just that I wasn't sure if it was you. What did you buy that was so heavy?" Kenshin asked, trying to change the subject. "I bought a fresh meat that we could cook together! I kicked the door because my hands were full and the meat is really heavy, so I couldn't open it." Ami replied, happily. Kenshin smiled gently, picking up the heavy meat.
Later
"When do you... Kenshin-san..." Ami began to ask, suddenly interrupted by Kenshin. He suddenly appeared behind her, slowly wrapping his arms around her. "Just relax... You're too tense..." he whispered, using one hand to caress her face while the other slowly traveled down her body.
Giving in to his seduction, Ami raised her arms and wrapped them around his neck. In doing so, she brought his head onto her shoulder. "I was going to..." Ami began, suddenly silenced by Kenshin. He gently placed his lips on hers, softly caressing them with his own. When suddenly...
There was a sudden loud banging at the door. "I better go answer it. I don't want anyone to find out you're here..." Ami suggested, unwillingly removing herself from Kenshin's grasp. "Just be careful..." he told her, stepping into the shadows.
Ami slowly opened the door. "Who is it?" "Ami...chan..." a voice whispered. "Akane-chan! What happened?!" Ami suddenly cried, watching as her friend's bloodied body crash to the floor. "Are you alright?!" Kenshin asked, suddenly appearing. "So this is where you've been hiding... Battousai." a voice laughed, not too far away. "Nani?!" Ami exclaimed as she held the trembling body of her friend close to her.
"Who are you?!" Kenshin called, stepping in front of the two young women. "Oh, I think you should know very well who it is..." the voice cackled as a shadow suddenly appeared.

Miko:Shimatta! I think this story is taking a dip! I'm in another pinch! Please tell me what you think of the story! If you don't like it, just tell me if I should drop it or just revise it! If so, please just tell me where to revise or if I should just delete it all together. With that being said, I'll see what I can do! Ja ne! ^_~*
