The three had arrived at the dojo and began to go into the door to Kamiya Dojo. Just as they were about to enter it, Dr. Gensai and his two granddaughters came out of the door and greeted them.
"Hello Yahiko!" the two girls shouted.
"Good afternoon Megumi and Kaoru," Dr. Gensai said.
"Good afternoon," said Megumi and Kaoru in unison.
"We were wondering where you were," Dr. Gensai said.
"We were just in the market place buying food for lunch. We should probably do make lunch now since it's already afternoon," Kaoru said. Megumi agreed with a nod and the whole bunch went inside.
Megumi was about to go in until Kenshin appeared behind Dr. Gensai. "Wait Miss Megumi. There's something I need to tell you before you go."
Megumi looked at Kenshin and said, "All right. What is it?"
"I think this should be told to you privately that it does," Kenshin said.
Megumi looked at Kenshin closely. He had a serious face. She knew that something bad had happened because everyone looked at her and Kenshin with sad eyes. Megumi hoped to herself that wouldn't be that much of bad news as she followed Kenshin. Everyone looked at them as they went.
Megumi followed Kenshin. She didn't know where he was taking her until they arrived at the destination. It was the Sakura gardens behind the Dojo. It was spring so the trees were blooming with Sakura blossoms and some were shedding. It was a beautiful sight to see.
Kenshin stopped but didn't turn his back to face Megumi. Megumi couldn't wait so she asked, "So what did you wanted to tell me, Sir Ken?"
Kenshin replied after a couple of seconds, "Kaoru, I and the others were going to keep it as secret but you know that you have to know the truth. No matter how heartbreaking this will be to you," and at that moment Kenshin turned around to face her.
Megumi stood there and watched him with all of her attention. Then Kenshin said, "We just got news that Sanosuke." Then shock hit Megumi hard. At that moment Megumi though, 'It's about Sanosuke! It's bad news so there must be something dreadful about Sanosuke!'
".is dead." Kenshin said ending his sentence.
Megumi felt as if there were a thousand knives that just stabbed her everywhere.
".Sanosuke.is.dead!?" Megumi said as she trembled.
"I'm truly sorry that I am," Kenshin said with repentant in his voice. "We just got news from the policemen. They found Sanosuke's home in Tokyo desolated and everywhere of the house was covered with stains of blood. They didn't find the body but they did find this." Kenshin held out a red ribbon to Megumi. Megumi looked at it for a few seconds and took it. It was the red ribbon that he would always wear around his head.
"We don't know yet of where the blood came from but they policemen are positive that it's from Sanosuke. They're still looking for the killers." Megumi was shock at all time. Her face was white as a ghost.
Kenshin stopped then said, "We're all here for you if you need us." With that, Kenshin left the shocked doctor alone in the Sakura garden.
Megumi shed tears. She sat down on one of the benches in the gardens and shed more tears. She needed time to think. This news has surly hit her hard.
'Why did Sanosuke died? Is he really dead? I don't know for sure but why did he have to die. Now can never tell him my feelings nor see him again.' Megumi wept and wept.

Back at the Kamiya Dojo.
Dr. Gensai was in the living, setting up napkins and chopsticks. The two granddaughters were outside playing, while Kaoru and Megumi was in the kitchen preparing the food. Yahiko was practicing his swordsmanship. Kaoru was cooking the rice then Kenshin came in.
"How did it go?" Kaoru asked.
"Not too well, not to well at all that it didn't," Kenshin replied sadly. Kaoru looked at the ground with sad eyes too.
"You think that Megumi-,"
"Think that I what?" It was a voice behind Kenshin. Both Kenshin and Kaoru looked and saw that it was Megumi. Both looked at here with surprise.
"Miss Megumi!?" Kenshin and Kaoru said in unison, "Back so soon."
Megumi smiled but very faintly. "Yes, we have dinner to prepare." Then she walked in the kitchen. Kenshin saw that Megumi was still depressed so he left the kitchen and went into the living room.
Megumi was cooking the fish and Kaoru was chopping lettuce. Megumi looked down at the cooking fish and remembered about Sanosuke again. Barbequed fish was his favorite food and thinking about him again made Megumi more miserable. She only wished that Sanosuke would be alive again at that moment and hold her in his arms. (Ok, I'm getting noxious at this part. Romance are not my strong side.) As she thought about Sanosuke, Megumi didn't notice that Kaoru was looking at her and studying her too. Until Kaoru spoke up. ".Sanosuke." She said it in a very sad tone.
She got a little tiny startle from it and then look at Kaoru. Megumi smiled a weak smile and then looked back down at the frying fish. "How could you tell?" Megumi asked her. Kaoru smiled back and said, "It's barbequed fish. Sanosuke's favorite. I know that because at every dinner that idiot would eat all of the barbequed fish and leave me with nothing." She ended it with a chuckled.
"Yes, he was an idiot but a sweet and kind one," Megumi said with a smile and Kaoru nodded in agreement. Then stopped suddenly and asked, "Kaoru?"
"Yeah?" she answered.
"Why don't you ever tell Kenshin that you love him?" Megumi asked. Kaoru was taken by surprised by that question. Her cheeks turned red and smiled. "Well . . . . . .," she said as she played around with her fingers, "Umm . . . It's just that, I don't think he loves me back."
Megumi chuckled at Kaoru's response. Kaoru didn't seem that it was funny at all. "Hey! What's so funny!? You're the one that asked me so I answered!" Megumi stopped chuckling and said, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make fun of your answer. It's just that you and Kenshin are just the same as Sanosuke and me. Kaoru couldn't help it but chuckled too. "That's a surprise...Megumi.will.you be alright?" She said in a gentle voice.
"Right now.I'm not sure," Megumi said, ".but I know I can't always be miserable. Sanosuke is gone and I still have my life to keep up with." Complete silence was between them afterwards.
Minutes later, the food was done cooking. Kaoru and Megumi took each plate out one by one to the table. Everyone was quiet though. It was because of the news about Sanosuke. Kaoru and Megumi sat down and everyone began to eat. It was quiet during the dinner. Then Kenshin and others decided to cheer Megumi up a bit.
"Miss Kaoru, how come today we have so much food and so tasty that they are?" Kenshin asked with a smile.
"Oh, well, you can all thank Miss Megumi," Kaoru said, "She bought most of the food. If it weren't for her then we would probably have nothing much then a plate of fried fish."
Megumi smiled weakly. Dr. Gensai laughed out loud. "Yeah, that's our Megumi." Everyone chuckled softly then munched down so more. There wasn't really that much talking after since cheering Megumi wasn't working.
