"Hello!" 6/13/03 Written By: KTcole3

KTcole3: Hello!!!!! I'm back!

Y.KT: And so am I!!

*lowers arms and holds head*

KTcole3: Oh gods, you're back?

Y.KT: yep ^_^

KTcole3: oh well, this is my first Rurouni Kenshin fic, and I kinda already have this a little planned, so... enjoy! This is a fic with slight romance, containing Sano/OC and some K/K in too.

READ THIS!!!!!! Ok, this happens before the group meets up with Sanosuke and Megumi, just to let you know. Also, I don't exactly remember what happened in the show, so I'm going to leave out some stuff, ok? *^*^*^*^*^*^*
The morning started like any other at the Kamiya Dojo. "COME BACK HERE YOU LITTLE BRAT!" yelled Kaoru. "NOT IF I CAN HELP IT, UGLY!" Yahiko yelled back. Kaoru was chasing Yahiko around the yard in front of the dojo. Kenshin was smiling while having a sweat drop. While those two where "practicing", he was doing the laundry and hanging it up on a rope. That's when there was a knock on the gate.

Kenshin, Kaoru and Yahiko being to busy, got up and opened up the door. The police officer(A/N: the dude who was first after Kenshin, with the mustach) greeted Kenshin. "Hello officer. What brings you here today?" asked Kenshin. Kaoru, having stopped chasing Yahiko, walked over to where Kenshin was. "Hello officer(A/N: as you can tell, I don't remember the officer's name)," she said.

"Hello Ms. Kamiya, Mr. Himura. Kenshin, I would like to talk to you," he said. "Oro[1]? What for?"asked Kenshin, cocking his head. "Well," he started," I have a young women stating that she-" he was interupted by the girl. "KENSHIN!" she said, jumping on him, making him fall over on the ground, and she started cuddling him.

"Hey! Wha-Who do you think you are?" asked Kaoru, rather ticked off. She didn't hear her. "Oh Kenshin! I've been waiting to have a chance to look for you for the past ten years!" she said, hugging him a little too tight. "Umm...please get off of me miss," he said, pushing her off. She was kneeling in front of him confused.

When Kenshin finally took a good look at her, he realized something. She looked just like him. She had reddish-orange hair, held back at the base of her nack, like Kenshin's hair, but hers was much more smoother. One of the only ways to tell the difference was that, besides that she was a girl, and he was a guy, but it was her eye color. While Kenshin's eyes were violet, her eyes were a sapphire blue.

She wasn't even his own age, which was 28. She was around the age of 18, 10 years younger then Kenshin, and the same age of Kaoru. She then pointed to herself and said," Come on Kenshin! Don't you remember me?" "Iei[2], I do not," he said, shaking his head. "WHAT!?" she yelled,"oh wait, it HAS been ten years, huh?" "Yes, it has, miss.....miss.....say what's you name anyway?" asked Kaoru. Yahiko ran over to the little group. " Hey Kenshin, who's this?" he asked, indicating the girl.

"We were just about to find out, that we were," he said. "Himura," she stated simply, and every one was shocked. "Hi-himura?" She nodded and smiled. "Yep! Kara Himura at you service," she said. "Wow, Kenshin! I didn't know you had a sister!" said Yahiko. But Kenshin was flat on the ground with little swirls in his eyes. "Oh no, now I have to deal with this!"

This made Kara angry. "HEY! What's that suppose to mean?" "No- nothing!" said Kenshin, rubbing the back of his head. "I hope it isn't nothing!" she said, getting up. She was wearing what was like a kimono, but for battle. The skirt part was above her knees, and the sleeves were cut off. Yahiko noticed the sword on her hip. Her shoes were pure black, and you could just slip them on. It also looked like she long, socks, but ones that you wouldn't normally wear. You can put your foot through it, and they would go up to just under your knees, as well as letting them rest on your ankels, all of it rather loosely. Yahiko noticed to sword on her hip. "Hey, what kind of sword is that?"

"Oh, this?" she said. "Would you like to see?" she asked, and all of them nodded. She pulled it out slowly, and it revealed that it was a reverse blade sword. "Yep! You MUST be Kenshin's sister if you have that kind of sword." "Well, I better be going," said the officer, and he left. Kaoru averted her attention back to Kara. "So, do you have a place to stay?" she asked. "No. Never really stayed in a place long enough. I'm just a simple wanderer, like you Kenshin." "Nani[3]? How did you know that?" "Oh! The officer told me."

"Well," started Kaoru," If you want, you could stay here. I have plenty of space!" "Really?!" Kaoru nodded. "Thank you, Kaoru!"

'And that is how Kara became like a new member of our family' *^*^*^*^*^*^* KTcole3: Yay! done with first chapter!

Y.KT: Woo hoo......

KTcole3: Be a little happier! We have a special guest coming next chapter, that is, if I get at least 2 reviews.

Y.KT: Is it going to be Bakura?

KTcole3: Maybe.......anyway, R&R!!

[1] Oro: It really doesn't appear in the dubbed version, but it does in the Japanese one. When Kenshin says it, it's like he's sorry of confussed, whatever the scenario may be.

[2]Iei: Plain and simple---no. Iei means "no".

[3]Nani: Another plain and simple word. Nani means "what".
