* Sad music continues to play *
Kaoru sat beside Kenshin's bed holding a burning hot rag on his forehead. So for this had seemed to warm him up and keep death for him at bay. Kaoru never took her eyes off Kenshin's sleeping form out of fear he'd draw his final breath if she did. Megumi checked up on Kenshin every couple of hours just to see how he was doing, but his condition never changed and for now he seemed stable.
"Ka...Kaoru" Kenshin studdered
"Yes Kenshin" Kaoru answered in a low voice
"Thank you Kaoru" Kenshin answered in a slight whisper
"For what Kenshin" Kaoru asked
But Kaoru got no answered and she silently watched Kenshin chest rise and fall with each ragged breath he took. Kaoru made a silent note not to cause Kenshin too much pain. Sano and Yahiko walked into Kenshin's room with some boiling water.
"How's he doing missy" Sano asked while placing a bowl of boiling water on the floor
"He seems to be doing alright"Kaoru answered with a slight frown on her face
"If he's doing alright then why are you frowning" Yahiko questioned
Yahiko got no answered as he pored some boiling water into a small teapot near Kenshin's bed. Yahiko looked at Kenshin with sorrow in his eyes before turning back to the little teapot infront of him. Sano and Yahiko had been intent on seeing to it that Kenshin survived and Yahiko would be damned if he didn't. Kaoru dipped the rag into the boiling water Sano had just placed on the floor, then she placed the rag back on Kenshin's forehead, and Sano busied him-self helping Yahiko make some green tea witched nether of them had ever done. Kaoru watched as the color of Kenshin's skin started to fade and his lips started to turn blue. She watched as Kenshin struggled for breath knowing there wasn't much she could but pray. Sano and Yahiko turned as Misao and Megumi entered the room and the attenion of the four turned and looked at Kenshin as Kaoru pleaded with him not to die but her please fell on deaf ears as Kenshin drew his final breath. Kaoru broke and fell into tears as Yahiko followed suit. Sano tried not to but wond up crying as well with Misao and Megumi on their knees in tears.
"How Kenshin...how could you do this to me" Kaoru whisperd sorrow lacing her voice
"Why Kenshin... why did you have to die" Yahiko asked with a tear stricken voice
"You'r not being fair Kenshin" Sano half yelled
"No please don't..."Kaoru whispered
"Noooo sir Ken don't die on us" Megumi cryed out
"How could you Himura" Misao asked is a sorrowful voice
They stared at Kenshin now still form laying there on the bed. In his last moments Kenshin had been in pain, they all could tell. That knowledge alone brought more tears to ther eyes. As they sat there and cryed a soft noise cought their ears and they looked at Kenshin. Kenshin's chest rose and fell ever so slightly. Kaoru held her hand an inch above Kenshin's mouth expecting nothing, but what she felt startled her. Agenst her hand Kaoru felt a soft breath and she moved her hand down and placed it on Kenshin's chest, over his heart and felt it beating. Kaoru turned to the other with a smile on her face.
"He's alive" Kaoru informed them happily
"He...he is..." Yahiko studdered out
Megumi checked him over and confirmed Kaoru's out burst. The room burst into lafter and celebration and Kenshin just laied there on his bed. Kaoru took Kenshin's hand in her own and gave it a gental kiss
"Kenshin are you awake?" Kaoru asked
"Y...yes...I...am" Kenshin managed through his pain
"I'm glade you still alive" Kaoru told him with a smile
"I can't...die yet...I still..."
But Kenshin was in too much pain to finish his sentence and fell back asleep. Kaoru smiled and laid Kenshin's hand down beside him and polled a blanket over him. Sano quieted the room and Yahiko told them that they should celebrate in another room so that Kenshin could rest. The group left the room leaving Kenshin and Kaoru alone.
"I promise you Kenshin that as long as I live no one will ever hurt you again" Kaoru told her dear friend in a low voice so only he could hear.
"Thank...you...Kaoru" Kenshin chocked out in a pained voice
"Sleep, you need to rest" Kaoru instructed
Kenshin fell into a deep sleep and Kaoru ,brushed some fallen strands of hair out of Kenshin's eyes, stood up and left Kenshin's room to join the others. Sano looked up as Kaoru entered the room.
"What's up missy" Sano asked in a joyice voice
"I think we should go home tomorrow"Kaoru informed them
"Why?" Yahiko and Misao asked at the same time
"This...Kyoto bring back painful memories to Kenshin is no place for to stay" Kaoru told them in a sad voice
"If that's the way you feel we'll go home tomorrow" Sano told her
"But how will you get Kenshin back to Tokyo"Misao asked confused
"Well...I'll carry him "Sano informed them
"Sano...you..." Kaoru studdered
"Yep...It's the least I can do for the guy after all he's been put through" Sano said standing up
"Thank you Sano"
