Note: Hey all! Tanks for reading my story! Just wanted to say this is one of those dream chapters, this one and the last one, when he sees it one way and she sees it the other.
Chapter 4: The Battousai That Was Awakened
"I think I better head back now Kaoru. I'm really tired. I don't want any dinner....so please do not interupt my sleep," he said as he got up and went to the door.
"Good night Kaoru. I love you."
"Good night Kenshin. I love you too."
"I'm going to kill you Kaoru," said Kenshin before he had even opened the door. Kaoru was raised an eyebrow. It was usually her who said this but she only when was very mad and would chase Kenshin with her wooden sword. He turned around and she gasped when she saw that his eyes had turned a fiery amber color and screamed the look of the Battousai.
"Wh..what?" asked Kaoru as she reached for him. He was fine just a moment ago.
"Kenshin are you feeling okay?" he slapped her hand away as she tried to put her arms around his neck. She winced.
'What's wrong with him?' she thought.
"Kenshin I think you need to see Ms. Megumi," she said, trying to pull him toward the door.
"How do you know my name?" he snapped as he backed up against the wall away from Kaoru.
"What do you mean Kenshin? You told me your name about a year ago when we first met," she expalined gingerly, holding on to his arm. He pulled her forward, (she thought he might embrase her) and bit her arm. She pulled back quickly but he wouldn't let go. After a few akward moments, he finally let go. A large, ring shaped cut showed on her arm. Blood started to form on the edges.
'Kenshin just hurt me. He just BIT me. What is wrong with him? I thought he LOVED me. He KISSED me just a few moments ago. He told me he would never hurt anyone. He's never hurt ME before,' she thought.
"My name is not Kenshin. It is Battousai the Man Slayer. Which means I'm sposed to kill you right now. If you didn't have my sword in your filthy little hands," he pointed at her hands where she found his sword, "you would have been dead ages ago."
"Wh..what?" Kaoru studdered. What was he talking about? What the hell was he saying? Kaoru was about to grab his hand and pull him into a kiss when he disappeared right in front of her eyes. The next moment he was standing a little to the right....holding the Reverce Blade Sword tightly in his hands.
"What's going on?" Kaoru backed up slowly. Kenshin pulled out the sword and stared at it lovingly. He threw it's scabbard to the ground and got into a stance Kaoru had seen before. That was Kenshin's stance from 11 years ago. When he was the legendary Battousai. Kaoru was staring, wide eyed, as Kenshin left the stance and licked the shinning sword.
"I can't believe you took my sword from me. That's not very nice," he said in a deep voice, "My beautiful sword...in your dirty hands! I'll have your head for this!" he cried as he raised the word and tried to hit Kaoru. She barely dodged it and dashed toward the door. Kenshin blocked her off by jumping in front of her and cornering her against another wall. He made another calculated slash at her. Kaoru moved just in time. Well...maybe not 'just in time'. Kaoru felt the tip of the blade cut across her shoulder, leaving a long cut down her left arm. She could feel a few drops of blood running down her arm as well. This was not the Kenshin she knew. The Kenshin she knew loved her. The Kenshin she knew kissed her that very night and even let her sleep with him once in the winter because she was cold ((ya, right)). The Kenshin she knew would never hurt her. This...this was the Battousai. The Battousai that wanted her blood.
