Author's note: Hope you like it! Any suggestions, or confused questions can come in reviews or emails to me! I hate it when I confuse the reader!

Kenshin had just changed Ayame's clothes.

"Do you feel better now?" He asked.

The five year old nodded.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Kenny." She wimpered.

Kenshin put her in his lap and stroked her hair.

"Why?" He asked.

She looked down at the floor awkwardly.

"Because I went down the hill when you told me not to and wet myself!" With that, she began to cry.

Kenshin pulled her closer.

"Oh, Ayame, it's okay. It was happening much too fast for you to actually listen, that it was."

She sniffled again and wiped her eyes.

"I'm sorry."

He smiled at her.

"It's alright, that it is."

He put the small child down.

"Think you should go find your sister before she tries to put Sano in your kimono and make him the new Ayame?" He asked.

The five year old giggled.

"Okay."

She skipped away. Kenshin sat down and sighed.

"Oh boy, that was tiring." He said.

Kaoru smiled, watching from the doorway. Kenshin was so sweet! So gentle and loving. He was like a mother.

"That was stupid."

Kaoru's smile immediately faded. She saw Kenshin's eyes were the same golden yellow as Battousai's.

Suddenly, they turned violet again.

"I'd better go start dinner, or Yahiko and Sanosuke might start eating grass." With a small chuckle Kenshin stood up and began to exit the room.

Kaoru high tailed it to the kitchen and stood there, pretending she had been there all along. Kenshin walked in and smiled at her.

"Well ,are you hungry, Miss Kaoru?" He asked.

She shook her head.

"Oh, no, Yahiko and Sanosuke probably are. And the girls, but I'm just fine."

Kenshin put a hand to her forehead.

"Are you sick? No, you feel cool. Well, it'll be a little while, so you have time to work up an appetite." He said.

Kaoru smiled awkwardly.

"Uh, yah."

Sometimes Kenshin was just plain corny.

Yahiko suddenly busted in, laughing hysterically. Sanosuke was hot on his heels.

"Birds and flowers, emmit my power, old lake Keko." Yahiko sang in a deep voice.

Kaoru and Kenshin looked confused.

"Yahiko, why are you bellowing like that?" Kenshin asked.

Yahiko cracked up.

"Because Sano sang like that while he was taking a pee."

Sanosuke grabbed him.

"Not true!"

Yahiko laughed.

"Very true!"

Sanosuke looked at Kenshin and Kaoru and shook his head.

"Don't listen to him. He's not telling the truth."

Yahiko nodded.

"Do listen to me, I speak nothing but the truth."

Kaoru just rolled her eyes and walked away. Kenshin followed her.

She turned around to see that his eyes were littered with specks of gold.

"Kenshin?" She asked.

He looked down sheepishly.

"Uh, yah, that I am."

She smiled cocking an eyebrow.

"Battousai, you could do a better job of immitating your other self than that." She said.

Battousai, with a little bit of Kenshin in his eyes looked up.

"Okay, you got me, that you did."

Kaoru's smile turned bigger.

"That you did?" She thought.

He looked a lot like Battousai, but his eyes were slightly bigger than Battousai's, and even though they were now yellow, scattered hints of violet shone. Was he now half and half.

They sat there in awkward silence for a minute, before hearing Sanosuke sing.

"Birds and flowers, emmit my power." He sounded very silly.

"Uncle Sano, you sound weird." Ayame and Suzume squealed with laughter.

Kaoru and... well, Kentousai, smiled.

"Hey, pick me up too!"  Yahiko yelled.

They could see part of Sanosuke hobbling around with Suzume on his shoulders, and Yahiko and Ayame in his arms.

Kaoru looked at Kenshin to see that he was moving closer to her. She turned red. He kissed her slowly and gently, but kept it firm and firey. He truly was, both the Battousai and the wanderer.

But why? She had just heard him earlier as Kenshin, and the Battousai, seperately! What could be going on.

Her thoughts were suddenly interuppted by Kenshin pulling away. And he was Kenshin. His bright, violet eyes shone with happiness.

"Now I really have to go get started on dinner, that I do." He said before giving her a quick peck on the cheek.

She nodded.

To Be Continued...if your reviews choose so.

What will happen if Battousai and Kenshin can't get along?
