Chapter 2- The Battosai's Fight
Authors note: please review *worship worship worship!*
"If you lay a hand on them, I will kill you slowly. Not that I'm not going to kill you in pain now."
"Who said that?! I recognize that voice!" They both turned around to see a shadow of a main. His eyes still golden and all that showed.
"It is I Kenji. Son of Kenshin, the manslayer."
Kaoru looked at her son in fear. How did he know that his father was the legendeary Battosai. Had that demon entered her son's body?
Ayame blinked as she was still crying.
Kenji looked over at them. Seeing Ayame crying softened him for a moment. "Ayame...." but the pure fact she was afraid, afraid of those bandits and his mother's fear fueled his anger furthur. And his eyes turned golden again.
"What do you think your doing you little runt?!" A man asked staring at him. Kenji didnt move but closed his eyes. "You are so weak, you're like children. And killing you would be as such." He started to walk towards the women, but a sword crossed in front of him.
"You're not going anywhere."
--
"We're back!" A much too happy Kenshin said as he and Ayame walked up to the dojo. Suddenly Kenshin saw the wreck and dropped his pile of wood in fear. "Kaoru! Kenji!!! Ayame!!!" He ran in to see it all in ruins. There was no bodies or blood. No sign of struggle inside. Perhaps...
"Uncle Kenshin look!"
Hearing Suzume's voice Kenshin jumped out of the dojo and by her.
Three sets of tracks. One was human, a struggling drag. Some were horse shoe prints, and last and most disturbing of all, deep shoe prints showing running, strong and fast running.
Kenshin placed his hand in the shoe prints. Recent, muddy. He went into the dojo once again and found not to his suprise, the emergency sword was gone.
He frowned. "Kenji has taken the sword....I wonder...." He lifted his eyebrow. "Suzume, Tsubume's restaraunt isnt very far. Run there
and dont look back. I will come for you later, that I will."
"Uncle Kenshin, please be careful!"
"I will Suzume." Kenshin grabbed a staff he founded on the ground and took off while Suzume ran the opposite way.
Following the horse tracks made it easy. But in his mind he was more worried about the Battosai instead.
--
"You're not going anywhere." The man repeated, his sword in front of
Kenji's neck.
"Remove, or it'll be in your throat sir." Kenji said. But before he gave him a chance to speak or move the sword, Kenji quickly fell to the ground and sliced off his legs, then stabbed him in the heart.
"No, Kenji!" Kaoru said covering Ayame's eyes.
"Why you stupid basta---" Another one started before Kenji quickly tore him into more then 10 peices.
There was only one left. Staring at him, looking at him directly in the eyes.
"For hurting my mother and Ayame-chan, you shall surely die." Kenji said. "I will more then definatly make sure of that."
"Kenji...." A voice from behind him beckoned.
Kenji's eyes didnt move. Instead, turning his head still holding the sword onto the man's neck, he looked at his father, Kenshin Himura.
"What do you want?"
"Kenji, stop you dont know what you're doing." Kenshin said moving a little bit closer.
"Kenji is gone. Much like you were once. Till you decided to end us." Kenji grinned. "Kenji is much stronger then you."
"Battosai, Kenji, is not who you want to be." Kenshin nodded. "What these men did was wrong, indeed it is. But thats no reason to become what I left behind."
"You? You didnt create the battosai. He created you." Kenji awnsered, his attention back to the man.
Kenshin glared. The battosai created him? How strange of Kenji to say this. And then Kenji lifted his sword.
"No Kenji dont!!!!" Kenshin yelled running towards his only son.
But the fatal swoop not only killed the man but turned around and sliced Kenshin on the chest. "You fool!" Kenji yelled.
"KENSHIN!!!!" Kaoru screamed in horror as her husband fell to the ground close to them.
Kaoru ran to her husband leaving Ayame there in shock (she hadnt seen much).
"Kenji why why did you hurt your father, Kenji, why?" Kaoru asked looking at him. Kenshin breathed deep, gasping for what little air he could.
"But.....he did it...." Kenji said backing up. He rubbed his head. His mother was crying now yelling her fathers name over and over. Ayame ran to the two and held Kaoru. "Kenji what did you do?!"
Kenji closed his eyes and opened them. They were violet again. As he stared down he looked at his hands. "I.....Kenji....I did this?" He let the sword fall and himself fall to his knees.
"We have to get him to a doctor!" Kaoru pleaded. "Miss Megumi, she can help!"
Kenji raised his head. "Take the horse." He lead his mother there and placed his father on the side.
"Kenji what about you?" Ayame asked as she climbed up still crying.
"Just go." Kenji said darkly, smacking the horse to make it run.
"Kenji!!!" Ayame yelled.
But it was too late.
Kenji looked at himself. He looked back at the sword. In the sword he could still see the golden eyes and the face of what he just was. It had happened so quickly, he wasnt sure who he was at the moment. Battosai? Or Kenji?
He grabbed the sword and placed it in his sheath. He was only 16, this wasnt fair! He then sighed. "Im sorry I made you cry mom...." And with that, he left. Where was he going? He didnt know...
