..::Prologue::..
"Kaoru! Kaoru-san!" Megumi and Tsubame called out together.
Where could she be..
she'll get worse if she keeps on doing this.
"Tsubame-chan you look for her there.." Megumi pointed downtown. "I'll head to the port." She instructed Tsubame.
"Hai!Megumi-san."
"Be careful" She said to the girl as they separated ways.
On the way to the port, something made her stop. "The Sakuras.." she watched as each petal danced gracefully with the wind. She watched them lovingly for they reminded her of the good times she's had, like when she and the whole Kenshin-gumi used to watch the Cherry blossoms together. "If only we could go back to those days.." She sighed.
The sound of a ship docking brought her back to her senses."I almost forgot Kaoru-san.." she was gonna go back searching when she saw something she didn't notice before. Two people were sitting under the Cherry blossoms. This aroused her curiosity so she went a little closer to the couple.
"My goodness! It's Kaoru! And..and.. can it really be?.." Ken-san! He's back!
Tears started to gather in her eyes as she ran towards them.
"Kaoru-san.."she said panting.
Kaoru looked up at her, smiling. "Megumi-san, it's gone! It's finally gone!" Kaoru said excitedly as tears fell from her eyes.
Megumi's brows formed a knot, she can't understand what Kaoru was saying. Kaoru ,seeing this, pointed to Kenshin's left cheek.
"The scar.." Megumi whispered. The scar which was always there, the constant reminder of Kenshin's dark past, was gone.
"Hai,he.. he finally atoned his sins." Kaoru said in between sobs.
Megumi nodded. Finally, they can be happy.
She knew she should be happy for Kaoru and Ken-san, but something was bothering her. Something's wrong.
She looked at Kenshin again. What she saw made her gasp. "He's not breathing!"
She rushed to his side and checked his vital signs. She didn't need her instincts to tell her there was nothing more she could do.. Kenshin was dead.
The tears now trickled down her cheeks as she looked at Kaoru questioningly. How come you are still smiling?
"He's finally free of the guilt that burdened him all his life" was Kaoru's only reply.
Megumi was still confused but she knew Kaoru was right, Kenshin was probably happier now, wherever he is. He is at peace.
The two women cried, the emotions they felt where of bliss and of mourning.
