Thank you for all of those who reviewed my story. I'm really glad that you
liked reading it.
To ella-tsukiyono, Bunny and Aku-chan: Thank you very much
To Haruko: Yes that's on my mind too but then I thought that if I make them any younger than 5, they would be too young. I'm thinking that 12 years of not seeing each other would eventually make them forget, especially if certain events in life such as school, new friends, new experiences, etc would pile up thus pushing memories of each other in the back of their minds. Anyway, thanks for reviewing.
The Forgotten Prince Chapter 2
Rrrriiiiiinnnngggg!!!!!!!!
Exactly at 3:30pm, the bell at Rinkoku High rang which signals the end of classes for that day. Preceding the bell are the opening of classroom doors followed by many students who are rushing out of their respective classes, obviously excited to end their class at the same time start their weekend.
Kaoru immediately stood up and placed all of her things inside her bag. Misao who is in the same Calculus class as her went up beside her. "Hey Kaoru since it's the end of classes for this week do you want to stroll outside or stroll at the mall or something?" She sat on the empty chair in front of Kaoru's.
Kaoru closed her bag with a snap as she gave an apologetic smile to Misao. "Gomen ne Misao. I still have a meeting with the rest of the student council. Principal Kawashita called for an emergency meeting regarding an unknown matter this lunch so I really need to go there."
Misao sighed. "Ok I understand Kaoru. I guess I just have to go by myself or drag someone there." She stood up with a cheerful smile on her face. "At least I wouldn't be stuck on a boring meeting like you."
Kaoru gave out a laugh. Misao isn't the kind of person who would indulge herself such as meetings and talks. She is always in high spirits and always wants to have fun. She is glad that she has Misao to release some of the stress and the hassles in her life. "Yes you should do that. Have fun."
"You bet I will!" Misao replied as she gave Kaoru a wave then went out of the room.
Glancing at her watch Kaoru carried her bag then went out of the classroom. Her meeting would start at exactly 4:00. She still has 20 minutes left before it starts so she decided to drop by her locker to pick up some notes she left there earlier. She made her way to the room where the lockers are, giving hi's and hello's along the way to some of her schoolmates. As a student council president, she is popular to the student body.
Kaoru's thoughts drifted to the message Principal Kawashita gave her that lunch. It was quite unusual for Rinkoku's Principal to held up a meeting at such late notice unless it is something important. 'Mou! Is there something that I don't know about?' She decided to leave the matter aside for she will find out the answer to her question later.
As she reached her locker, she noticed that her boyfriend Enishi is there, obviously waiting for her. She walked faster towards his direction. "Hi Enishi. What are you doing here? What can I do for you?"
Enishi pushed back his glasses as he gave Kaoru a smile. "I want to see my girlfriend and ask her out to eat with me this afternoon." He took her free hand and gave it kiss. "How does that sound? Are you willing to spend the afternoon with your boyfriend?"
She really wanted to go out with him so that she could spend more time with him and see for herself how perfect Enishi is for her but she has duties to attend to. "I would really love to go out with you Enishi demo I have a meeting with the SC(student council) this afternoon. Gomen nasai"
She saw her boyfriend's face fall with disappointment. "Oh is that so? It's the fourth meeting for the SC this week Kaoru I hardly get to see you nowadays. Can't you skip one meeting so that we can be together?" he said with a little irritation in his voice.
Kaoru can't help but feel a little annoyed herself. He can't expect her to do that; she's the SC President! "For your information, obviously you were not listening to me clearly yesterday that Enishi, because one of those four meetings is for our yearbook. One for the yearbook three for the SC. Besides I'm the president, how will my colleagues respect me if I do that?" He should understand that she have busy months ahead of them since the School festival is coming up next month and she intends for it to be different from every other their school has ever experienced.
He looked away as he took a deep breath. He looked at her again with an apologetic but tight smile. "I'm sorry Kaoru it's just that I really miss you." He leaned forward and gave her a kiss at her cheek. "I guess I'll just call you later." As Misao earlier did, he wove at her then left with hands inside his pockets.
She looked down at her watch, 10 minutes to go. 'Mou why is it that Enishi is so frustrating these past few days' Without even bothering to open her locker and do what she initially went there for, she left the place heading towards the SC room with thoughts on her relationship with Enishi.
Her mind is so full of thoughts that she didn't saw a person approaching her way, colliding with her. She dropped her bag on the floor, her things scattering on the floor. She gasped as she gave out a weak apology then bent down to pick up her stuff.
The person who bumped her helped her to pick up her things. As soon as she shoved everything inside her bag she looked up to give her gratitude to the person who helped her but froze when she saw a pair of purple eyes looking at her own. Only one person in that whole school could possess those kind of eyes.
Himura Kenshin gave her a smile as he continued to look at her. "Are you okay Kamiya-san?"
Kaoru did not answer his question as she stood up straight suddenly feeling the need to compose herself. "Yes I'm quite alright Himura-san."
Kenshin placed his left hand at the back of his head. "You seem like you were so lost in your thoughts back there Kamiya-san. That's why you did not notice me coming your way."
Why does he act so nice towards her when all he ever did was beat her up in her academics and his friends are the people who are always giving her a headache and making fun of her. She really felt sour towards him when he ranked no. 1 in the 1st quarter exams and then he beat her up in their PE class, which is Kendo. Little by little, she is losing the valedictorian spot to him.
"What am I thinking is none of your business and you should have avoided me when I am heading your direction. I appreciate you helping me to pick up my stuff but I don't have to chat with you for I still have a very important meeting to attend to. Now if you would excuse me Himura-san, I'll just see you around," she said coldly as she walked past him not looking back. She doesn't care if she sounded rude or anything. He should have stayed where he formerly was and didn't interfere with her life.

Kaoru entered the SC room and saw all of the SC members and Principal Kawashita are already there seated around a huge, rectangular wooden table. Everybody looked at her as soon as she entered the room.
Kaoru quietly went towards her chair. "Am I late?" she asked the person seated beside her who is Takani Megumi the SC secretary.
Megumi shook her head. "No you arrived just in time. We just came in early."
Shooting a glance at Principal Kawashita, she sighed with relief because she knows how strict the principal is regarding punctuality. The man took one final glance at his watch then coughed to get everyone's attention. "Everyone is in here now?"
Kaoru looked around and saw all the members and class representatives present in the room. "Yes sensei, we can begin now."
Everyone focused his or her attention on the principal.
"You might be wondering why I called for a meeting at such a late notice," he said as he leaned back against his chair.
"Yes we certainly are sensei. Did something bad happen? What are we going to do?" Kaoru asked worry evident in her voice. What if something happened and they can't push through the weeklong school festival or something.
"No Kamiya-san. Nothing bad has happened. Don't let your pessimistic side get to you again Kamiya-san," Principal Kawashita said teasing her.
Blushing a little, Kaoru looked down at her hands because every time Principal Kawashita holds an emergency meeting, she always assumes that something bad has happened.
"I believe that this would be a very good news to everyone because doing less work is involved here," Principal Kawashita continued as he glanced at the door.
Everyone broke into a smile feeling very happy that they would have to work less for they know that the coming days would be a tedious ones. They let their principal to continue talking.
"I know how hard it is for everyone to sacrifice huge amounts of time and efforts for the betterment of our school and with the school festival fast approaching, everyone's efforts should be doubled to achieve what everyone is aiming for. I believe that Kamiya-san wants to really make this event a huge and successful one. I just read your proposition on what you want to happen," the brown-haired man with glasses looked at the SC president.
"Yes. I want this festival to be the best one ever," Kaoru said with determination in her voice. She has lots of plans and almost everyone agrees to cooperate with her. The only problem is that it really requires work but she is willing to sacrifice for the success of the event.
"It really is a great loss for us that Tojikara Michiko and her brother Suchiko has to leave to study abroad," he stood up.
Kaoru's thoughts drifted back to Michiko and Suchiko. Michiko is the SC Vice President and is a senior like her. She is a good friend and a very intelligent person. Meanwhile her brother Suchiko is a year younger than them and is the SC Auditor.
"I know that we all decided not to replace the two of them but as I can see, we need all the help we can get so I secretly studied the students in this school and looked for someone whom I think is capable for the position of Vice President. Fortunately, I found one. "
'I wonder whom he decided to replace to Michiko,' Kaoru thought knowing how high the principal's standards are. She must give whomever that person is credit for reaching that. She looked around the room looking for any person who is not supposed to be here, she found none.
"I'm afraid he is quite late because I asked him to do something for me," Principal Kawashita said. "I really think this person is suited to be a leader."
Suddenly someone entered the room. Kaoru's eyes widened as she saw Himura Kenshin entered the room. She was about to ask him what the hell he was doing there when she saw him went to the principal's side and gave him some papers.
"Here are the reports you asked me to get from your office sensei," he said as he ran his hand through his hair.
Kaoru couldn't speak as she think about what is happening in front of her. She gripped the side of her chair forcefully, her knuckles almost turning white 'No way! Don't tell me that.'
Principal Kawashita placed a hand on Kenshin's shoulder. "Let me introduce to you the new SC Vice President everyone. Himura Kenshin."
