A/N: YAHOO! I'm continuing! This story is incredibly fun to write but it's not all that popular....T-T. Ah well, I'd like to thank all you readers who rock! Woohoo! Now read before I go all amazingly CRAY-ZEE!
Chapter 3
It's been a long time and I haven't been feeling any better. Actually the sickness and the pain have grown worse. I need something to help me, I need to feel something familiar. I don't want to be lonely now.
Since it sort of hurts to move, I call Aoshi to see if he can drive me to the lake. Since he's easy to ask a favor of and we're on pretty good terms I was hoping he'd be able to. And sure enough, he agreed.
As we came to the lake, I grabbed the blanket I brought with me, graciously thanked Aoshi, then I slowly and carefully got out of his car. Then I secretly headed for the old dojo. The familiar sight should help cure me.
This room feels like a training hall. Or at least it feels like it USED to be one. I wrap myself in the blanket I brought to keep my shivering steady and slowly yet painfully kneel onto the floor. As I look over to the side, another short vision fades into the room. It's...that girl, like me, kneeling sadly in the floor. Tears seem to be rolling down her face. She closes her eyes and whispers, "Ken-shin..." then the vision slowly fades away.
The pain began to take a bit more over me and tears began to fall down my face as well.
A few minutes later a shadow appears at the door. But it seems to be fading away. My eyes widen and, forgetting the pain I'm in, run up to the door and hastily slide it open. There's the red-haired man walking away again. I didn't wait this time and called out the first thing that came to my mind..."KENSHIN!"
The young man freezes and turns around in shock. He looks at me for a few seconds and I can feel the pain welling up inside me even stronger then before. I let out a small painful cry and sink to the ground.
He gasps and runs over to me, gently lifting my head off the ground and then he asks me with a familiar tone in his voice, "Are you going to be okay?"
I slowly open my eyes, my breathing a bit rapid but I slowly nod my head.
He slowly picks me up and sets me down on one of the walls in the training hall.
Then, with the same gentle tone in his voice, he asks, "Now, if you can talk, can you please tell me how you knew my name?"
My eyes widen a bit. This is him. Kenshin.
"Your Kenshin?", I ask weakly.
He nods a bit, worry slightly in his eyes.
I smile at him. "I know because of the voices here."
Kenshin begins to open his mouth and then decides to turn whatever his comment would've been into a smile.
"Now, if I may ask, what is your name?"
I blink and I say in the proudest voice I can, "My name is Kaoru."
Kenshin put his hand on my shoulder and said, "It's nice to meet you....Kaoru."
"It's nice to meet you too." I reply.
But slowly in my head I think, 'It's nice to meet you...again.'
A/N: hehe! Kaoru is being smart now ne? Haha! I hope all youse K&Kers love this chappie! Find out what happens in the next one! I hope for more reviews!!
