Disclaimer: We don't own Rurouni Kenshin or Final Fantasy 7! Don't sue us!!! We're broke!
Onna here doing the first chapter! This is how things would go. Liv and I will write a chapter alternately. Meaning if I did this chapter, Liv does chapter 2, then I do chapter 3 and so on.
Names are in Japanese format, so last names come before given names.

"Sano! I can't believe you got us lost!" Myoujin Yahiko, a boy with dark spiky hair and red eyes, cried in frustration.
"Who would have thought that a simple trip to Kyoto would end up like this?" Kamiya Kaoru sighed. She had raven hair pulled back into a ponytail with a blue ribbon that complemented her cerulean eyes.
"Maa maa, minna! Let's not blame Sano for this," Himura Kenshin, red-haired and violet-eyed, raised his hands in a placatory gesture.
Sagara Sanosuke, with gravity-defying brown hair and dark eyes, just walked silently, chewing on his fishbone. Yahiko was directly behind him, and in his annoyance swung his shinai at Sano.
KEERRAACK! The bamboo sword broke as soon as it connected with Sano's head.
"Itai!" the tall fighter yelped.
"Serves you right, tori-atama!"
"Oi!" Sano pounced on Yahiko, raising a cloud of dust.
"Oh no!" Kaoru looked on in exasperation. "We might as well ignore them..."
Kenshin just shook his head as his friends bickered. He tucked his hands back into the sleeves of his gi and resumed walking.
Spent 10 years atoning for all my sins... When will I be worthy to... his thoughts trailed off as he looked at the pretty girl with the blue ribbon in her hair beside him. He loved her so much, and yet he couldn't bring himself to tell her.
Kenshin was jolted out of his thoughts when Kaoru waved her hand in front of his face. He blinked and turned to Kaoru with a quizzical expression.
"Daijoubu, Kenshin? You seem to be miles away."
Kenshin nodded. "Sessha wa daijoubu, Kaoru-dono."
"Hey, watch it!" Yahiko's irate voice resounded.
"You watch it, Yahiko-chan!"
"Don't call me CHAN!!!"
To Kenshin's surprise, the two of them tumbled off the path, grappling at each other. Then they vanished. Kenshin froze in shock.
"Oro?!"
"Where'd they go?" Kaoru cried.
"I don't know. We'd better go check it out."
As they rushed to where they last saw their friends, Kenshin felt as if he was passing through a wall of water. He grabbed Kaoru's hand firmly to make sure he won't lose her. When the sensation passed, they found themselves in the middle of a large field of some sort. Sanosuke and Yahiko were still fighting with each other, not noticing the change in their surroundings.
"Would you two quit it already?" Kaoru ordered in irritation. "We're really lost now, don't you see?"
"WHAT?!" Yahiko and Sano looked around.
Kenshin looked around, wondering where they were. Greenery stretched out for miles, the calm sun shining on them. He knew they had to find shelter in this new place. A sign then caught his attention.
The sign read...
This way to the Chocobo Farm
