Chapter Eight! - Is it too late?
Kaoru walked beside Carter, she felt happy yet she had a feeling that something was wrong.. isn't going to Carter's hotel room a good idea? Kaoru shook the thought away. Carter looked at Kaoru and grinned as he opened the hotel door.
"Come in, make yourself comfortable.." Carter ushered Kaoru inside.
Kenshin ran towards the door as Carter turned away and let the door close by itself.. Kenshin tried to stop the door from closing, but he ended up tripping over and he fell, Kenshin sweatdropped at his clumsyness. (A/n: hehe..)
Kenshin decided to just peep through windows and keyholes for now, he peeped at the opened window. He could hear Kaoru laugh at Carter's jokes.
"Kaoru dear, want some Sake?" Carter asked as he glanced at the kitchen. Kaoru nodded. He stood up and went into the kitchen. Sakurai was there leaning on a cabinet. "Carter must you charm her so much with expensive liquor.." Sakurai whispered teasingly.. she was dressed in black along with red lipstick, bracelets and a red silk scarf clung to her hips, Sakurai smiled at Carter, now pouring Sake into two cups. "Sakurai, my dear it's just a matter of time.. i'm going to poison her with a sleeping powder i found today" Carter whispered back, placing the bottle of Sake, two cups onto a tray and put the white powder in Kaoru's cup. Sakurai laughed silently, making Carter frown. "What?" he asked. "Make sure you don't end up sleeping or i'll have to kill her myself" Sakurai laughed, as Carter walked towards the room Kaoru was in.
"So, as you were saying Kaoru dear, you're a teacher??" Carter smiled as he placed the tray of sake infront of himself and Kaoru sitting across him. "Here you go" Carter handed over the cup, grinning. "Thanks" Kaoru sipped.
A few moments later, Kenshin sweatdropped at Kaoru being drunk...
"*Hic* Anyway.. *Hic* I better be going home.." Kaoru with her face red and flushed from Sake, wobbled towards the closet door, and opened it. "Seeya Carter..*hic*" Kaoru fainted inside the closet. Carter laughed as he called out "Madame, come quickly". Kenshin looked at the opened door, with a gasp! 'Sakurai! Why, it cannot be..' Kenshin thought as he looked at the brunette & blue eyed lady walk into the room. Sakurai now wearing a black coat stood beside Carter both laughing at the fainted Kaoru. "You should've seen her face! 'Seeya Carter' and she went inside the closet!" they bursted out laughing. Kenshin spotted a large curtain nearby inside the room, he quickly clambered inside the room and hid behind it. Sakurai looked cautiously around and shut the window closing the drapes. "Ok, it's time to get rid of this brat finally!" Sakurai sighed.
Carter lifted up Kaoru on the bed. "Would you like me to do the honors? or you?" Carter asked. Kenshin knew this was trouble. "You" Sakurai replied. "I'd rather have a handsome, brave man do it than me". Carter nodded "Ok then..". That was Kenshin's que. Out of his hiding spot he shouted "That it enough, that it is!" Kenshin spoke seriously. Sakurai gasped, then innocently smiled. "Oh! Kenshin! I.." Sakurai got interuptted.
"Don't bother Sakurai.. I've heard enough to know for some reason you're after Kaoru's life.." Kenshin got out his sword.
Sakurai looked at Kenshin upsettingly. 'Another plan destroyed!' she thought to herself, anger rising. "So what!? if i'm after her! I know your little secret! you like her!" Sakurai called out. Carter now getting Kaoru as hostage, placing the gun near her head. Sakurai grinned as she turned back at Kenshin "But, not for long.. one step and she's gone..you hear!" Sakurai warned as she pointed to Carter. Kenshin looked at Sakurai, Carter then Kaoru... sleeping without notice. Kenshin sighed, if he moved he knew that the gun would meet Kaoru's head. "Okay,Okay.." Kenshin placed his sword away. "Don't hurt Kaoru, Sakurai.."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Where the heck did Kenshin run off to!?!" Yahiko looked around, along with Sano inside the dojo.
"He definately is going to pay me back of his share in the bill" Megumi muttered, looking inside the rooms. "Nope, not here"
"Maybe he followed Kaoru?" Yahiko asked. Sano nodded "Yeah, probably got abit envious.. ahha" Megumi laughed. "Oh well, nothing to worry about.. i bet he'll be home soon, tell him that he owes me money! i'm going seeya later" Megumi bid goodbye. Yahiko yawned. "I'm off to sleep Sano, you?" Yahiko turned towards his room. "Nah, i think i'll stay up abit" Sano looked outside. "I have a feeling somethings up" Sano munched onto his fishbone. "Meh, wake me if anything dangerous and action-filled happens.." with that, Yahiko went to sleep...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Sakurai, why are you doing this to Kaoru?" Kenshin asked. Sakurai laughed. "Why, Kenshin to think of all people you haven't figured it out yet!" Sakurai placed her hands on her hips and spoke: "Why, let's just say if Kaoru dies tonight, it's all your fault really.. beacause you choose her over me~!" Kenshin looked at Sakurai pitifully, "You're jealous?" Sakurai cringed and looked at Kaoru. "As if, this brat! I'm just disapointed you don't like me and rather like that type of a girl.. what ever happened to the promise we made years ago?"
//F l a s h ^_^x B a c k\\
"Sakurai dear, meet Shinta! He's the same age as you isn't it great?" Sakurai's sister giggled.
"Hi" shy little Sakurai hid from behind her sisters peering at Shinta, smiling happily. "Hi Sakurai" he greeted. Sakurai smiled and walked up to him. "will you be my fwiend?" she asked. "yeah.. okay.." Shinta replied, little Sakurai happily grabbed his hand "Let's play!"
~*~*~ still a flashback ~*~*~
Little Sakurai cried as Shinta was about to leave her home with her sisters..
"Shinta!" Sakurai ran up to him, he turned around. "Yes?"
"Shinta, promise me that we'll meet again and be together.."
"..."
"Shinta?!" Sakurai started to cry.
"Okay Sakurai... don't cry.." Shinta promised. Sakurai happily hugged Shinta. "Till then! remember that promise! Bye Shinta!"
//E n d of ^.^x F l a s h\\
"But Sakurai.. we were just children.." Kenshin stepped closer to the crying Sakurai. "Hey! Stay where you are mister!" Carter called out to Kenshin. "Remember I have Kaoru and a gun" Kenshin glared at Carter. Sakurai sniffled then continued.
"It's heart breaking Kenshin! Heart Breaking! to grow up a woman happily remembering the promise and then realising that you, Kenshin.. break the promise!" Sakurai walked up to him, teary-eyed and slapped Kenshin. Sakurai stepped back, revealing a sword under her cloak. "If i can't have you, no one not even Kaoru will! Fight me!" Sakura dropped her cloak showing her black and red outfit and her weapon, a sword with her name engraved on the sword's blade. "Sakurai.. Really.."
"I've been trained by my master for years.. i am the most wanted woman in this town, i am the lady known as the most experienced ninja, even though i normally get my men to steal and fight for me, i still can do the jobs myself" Sakurai got herself ready. Kenshin sighed, "Sakurai" "FIGHT ME!!!" Sakurai wailed. "Okay Okay.." Kenshin went into his battle stance.
Kaoru woke up, startling Carter who lowered the gun and put it away..
"Kenshin? and that lady?" Kaoru asked. Carter looked at Kaoru. "Kaoru, listen i guess you better know.. i've been paid to charm you, my mistress over there is an old friend of Kenshin.. she's the one who--" Kaoru stood up. "That lady! she blew up the carriage!" Kaoru gasped. Sakurai turned around. "Hah.. she remembers me? how sweet.. great timing isn't it Kaoru? you wake up to see who will die" Sakurai grinned at Kenshin. "Sakurai Hoseki vs. Kenshin Himura..Starting now!"
Sakurai leaped into the air, (A/N: I cant think of any great titles for her attacks .. .. eek)
"Hoseki Air Attack!" She yelled as Kenshin blocked. "What!" as she began to randomly attack Kenshin, each time blocked. "I will not lose!" as she took out a whip. and slashed it once. "hehehe.." she laughed. Sakurai ran up and used her whip, which clung onto Kenshin's sword. "tsk tsk.." Sakurai tugged and Kenshin's sword fell out of his hand. Weapon-less Kenshin backed away. Sakurai seized the moment to injure him, she withdrew her whip ready to attack. "Gotcha now!" Sakurai yelled as she ran up to him, the thick long whip hit Kenshin's arm. "owww.." Kenshin cringed.
"ahhaahahaha! sorry.. but looks like i win for now" Sakurai looked at Kenshin then walked back to Carter and Kaoru now backing away from he two she looked at Kenshin sadly then glared at Sakurai. "You monster! how dare you claim that you like Kenshin when you've injured him!" Kaoru slapped Sakurai and ran towards Kenshin's side. "That's it missy!" Sakurai leaped into the air and landed in front of Kaoru. "Where do you think you're going huh?" Sakurai grasped her arm tightly. Kaoru sturggled to get free. "Let go!" Kenshin struggled to his feet holding his sword. "Sakurai!" she turned around, Kaoru kicked her and broke free. "You !!!" Sakurai and Kaoru ran about the room for several moments. Sakurai panted as she regained her breath. "I'll get.. you.. for..that.." she then took out her whip. "No!" Kenshin darted infront of Sakurai, her whip hit his back, Kaoru watched as Kenshin and her eyes locked, the pain he felt from Sakurai was showing in his eyes. Kaoru could see his determination to protect her.
"Why?" Kaoru asked Kenshin in a whisper. Kenshin looked at her with his lilac eyes..
"Kaoru.. I-I-I" he got interupted. "pfft.. He likes you" Sakurai pouted. Kenshin blushed slightly, Kaoru smiled. "You do?" Kenshin nodded. "Now is not the time to go all mushy." Sakurai stated, Kenshin then stood up. "Ready?" Kenshin asked, in his stance. "Go!" Sakurai leaped into the air. and landed behind Kenshin, she flung her whip behind her. hitting Kenshin slightly, Kenshin smiled. "Hiten Mitsurugi Style!" Sakurai hit to the ground, "Mistress!?" Carter ran to check on her. (A/N: yeah.. she got hit nah nah nah~!! =P) Kaoru ran up to Kenshin.
"You did it Kenshin!" she smiled, she then knew why she didn't feel right with Carter...
