Author Notes: Thank you to all that reviewed the last chapter. It was a lot of fun to write, I think I should answer a question.

The girl that was crying in chapter eight wasn't Usagi but Kaoru

**************************

She wasn't happy at all. The cold silver eyes were a dead giveaway, she gripped her sword tighter. Her knuckles turning white from the action, she was going to kill the jerk once and for all. It was just a matter of time. That's all she needed now.
Aoshi frowned slightly her man-slayer side seemed a little too strong. He backed away slowly provoking her now wasn't good, he couldn't forget the other one. The battousai was just a dangerous, one mistake and it was over.
Usagi disappeared from sight initiating the second round of the fight. This time it was aoshi and Usagi. No Kenshin, Sanouske, nor the Battousai. This fight was between two foes, and Usagi will fight till he was defeated.

Aoshi gasped as his old wounds were opened. There was no way she could be this strong, unless. His eyes widened as he looked at her closely that symbol. He seen that symbol before it wasn't good, it could mean one thing.
Usagi frowned slightly her silver eyes narrowed. The scent of the sea reached her nose. She blinked she liked the sea, it was her favorite place. There was something different though, blood also reached her nose.
"You should give up already" Aoshi said.

Usagi frowned deeply gripping her sword tighter and getting in a fighting stance. This caused the ninja leader to frown. She was more stubborn then she was in her last life time. The last time he heard of her, so this would be the final fight.

The swing of Usagi's sword caught aoshi off guard cutting him. His eyes widened in shock as he fell, dead on the ground, looking at the young girl. He looked at her once again, before his eyes rolled back. One word rolled off his tongue.
"Chidaruma" he whispered.
Kenshin's eyes widened at the name. He looked up at usagi, who was hovering over aoshi's dead body, her eyes hidden by her bangs. The silence was unnerving as the dead body was left there to rot, hopefully in hell.

"Demo Aoshi, Chidaruma isn't here anymore" She said.
Usagi turned and walked off to the house. This fight and her dark past were over and no longer, will she be hunted down for it. Kenshin however still had his to deal with she would let him deal with it his own way.
"Akuchi, that's what he was but now he will rot in hell" She said

Kenshin frowned slightly at the new revelations. This would prove to be quite interesting and he wanted to learn more about Usagi. The niece of Tomoe, he would be with her and get a little closer to her.
Usagi and Kenshin looked at each other from across the table. The word uttered not to be mentioned again. Usagi smiled at him, she owed him for that.

That first moment, We shared a glance, At one another, A scent of a feeling was in the air, Of a very familiar smile.
There was something different about her. The way she carried herself was so unlike Tomoe, but in a way was like her. The soft flawless features the gentle smile. The smile.

***Flashback***

Battousai watched Tomoe as she fixed things around. Turning around to face him, she gave him a gentle smile. She continued to fix dinner, and drink. This was the only time she was alone, without her niece being there.

**End of Flashback**

"Tomoe never niece, she never mentioned one either" he thought.

A very strange, A strong power, Calls out to you,

Usagi frowned slightly as she saw his expression. His eyes were glazed over as if he was in deep thought, she frowned.

"He couldn't have figured it out, could he?" she thought.
They looked at each other. Blue eyes meet violet eyes. Both seeking answers for questions the other didn't know. Then they began to shake it off. The one thought it couldn't be her, and the other one was thankful they didn't figure it out.

The meaning of this chance meeting, Can't you notice any sooner?

The dinner was quiet except for the man-slayer who kept on looking at Usagi. He couldn't completely read her at all. Tomoe was hard to read too, and understand. She was always trying to prove that she was strong.

"She was in a way" He thought.

** Flashback**

Dark hair. White flawless face, deep black eyes. Also a sweet innocent smile. They were looking at him, trying to get him to remember.

**End of Flashback**

The meaning of this chance meeting, Can't you notice any sooner?

Megumi talked lightly with Usagi. Both girls teasing each other, Usagi giggled lightly over the matter of it. She didn't take anything to heart, it fluttered right off her.

"You play better then the raccoon girl, she takes everything offensively." Megumi said, dark brown eyes dancing with mirth in her eyes.

"You two fight like sisters, it must be nice to have someone to tease" Usagi said.

Megumi looked up and smiled sweetly. She nodded her head, she felt better already as it was. Her spirits were lifted up.

"Tomoe and me never argued" Usagi said.

**Flash Back**

Usagi was trying to make cookies. Her small pudgy hands, attempting to reach for the flour, as she did she knocked it down off the counter on her. After the flour dust lifted, a white covered Usagi stood in the kitchen.

Tomoe ran into the room, looking at the small child. A small smiled reached her eyes, no longer to hold it she giggled. Angry blue eyes greeted her vision.

"kokoronokorida Usagi, you just looked like a little white ghost" She said.

Usagi scowled and pouted looking the other way.
**End of Flashback**

Memories that will come and hold me down, But I'll never look, back at what's in the past, Was the feeling that I felt.

Usagi smiled softly as a tear trailed down her cheek. Her secret shouldn't be let out, not yet.

******

Whats Usagi's secret? Does Kenshin know? What will happen if they do find out?
