Chapter 15 ~

Just before the katana strike Kaoru , the Battousai had block it with his own katana. He had been running here after the fight with the Kurogasa-gumi army. He didn't even know what bring him here but deep inside his heart something were calling him to Kaoru. His eyes burned with amber. Kaoru noticed that this is different from the normal amber. It's a shade darker. A sign he's mad now. "Just for what you had just done , you'll die," he said angrily while his other hand help Kaoru up to her feet. "Oh , I see. Even the Battousai is interested in whore," Seki replied with a grin. "I'm no whore , you idiot," Kaoru said angrily while Kenshin shield her protectively. "Then you're his woman. This is fun. I'll have you after I killed him," Seki said in a confident tone. "The time for talk is past. It's time for you to die," the Battousai said coldly as he leap into battle with Seki. He slashes Seki's chest using the basic Battoujutsu style. "It's impossible , He's so different than that day," Seki thought inwardly as his blood kept pouring from the wound. The Battousai leap forward again using the Ryu-Tsui-Sen slashing him on his shoulder. Seki was beginning to get dizzy. He was trembling. It's even so hard for him to stand. He couldn't even lay a hand on The Battousai. "You're not that strong that day. What black magic did you use?," Seki asked angrily. "Didn't you realized yet? I hid my ki till the lowest level that day," The Battousai answered coldly. "So he tricked me and he's even insulting me now," he thought as he leap forward towards the Battousai's direction holding his katana. The Battousai finished him off using the kuzuryusen. He drop to the ground , bleeding profusely. "My father.will never forgive you," was his last word. He unsheathed his katana and walked towards Kaoru. "Are you hurt?," he asked while examining her for any injury. Kaoru just shook her head unable to form words. It was the first time she had seen him kill. Just then , Yamagata and Yamada arrive , breathing frantically. "I thought I told you to protect her," he said angrily while glaring at them. "It's not their fault," Kaoru said pleadingly. The look in her eyes make him softened to his normal self again , although he didn't know why. "The fight's still going on. We have to find the leader before it's too late," Kenshin said while he took hold of Kaoru's hand. "She'll go with me now," he said as he started to run away with Kaoru at his side whiel Yamagata nad Yamada headed towards the government's office.
''''''''''
Kenshin couldn't trust them to protect Kaoru anymore. If he had been a second late , she'll have been dead by now. He brought her by his side while he fight the Kurogasa-gumi. "Gomenasai. I'm just a burden to you," Kaoru said with watery eyes. "Now's not the time for this," he said while wiping the tears away.
''''''''''
There were fire burning everywhere around the street. "He's the one. The legendary Battousai. As long as we defeat him , the government will be over," Tsumuji said while walking over to the Battousai. They now stood face to face. Tsumuji motioned for the army to attack him while his eyes were fixed on the women beside the Battousai. "She must be precious to him. I don't want to do this but this is all for Japan's sake," Tsumuji thought inwardly as he motioned his few personal guards to take her away from him. Blood splashes all around the street. All the army had been killed in a blink of eye. The battousai realized their plans he fight Tsumuji's guards. He never let go of Kaoru's hand. What anger him most was every blow coming out from the guards were all towards Kaoru but not him. "The game is over," he said as he blurred in an amazing speed. In just a second , he was behind all the guards still holding Kaoru by his side. He uses the Ryu-Kan-Sen to finish then off. "So the rumors true. You kill 5 people in just a swing," Tsumuji said as he got closer to him. "Looks lie it's my turn now," Tsumuji added in as he unsheathed his katana. "You're their leader. What an honnurable man to try to kidnap a woman," the Battousai said as he glared at him. "I don't' understand. Why would someone like you help the government? Don't' you understand that the government's like a rubbish now?," Tsumuji asked confusely. "I do admit it but however , I will not let you begin any war in Japan now. It's the Meii era. IT's peaceful here. There'll be no more child witnessing war anymore," The Battousai answered cooly. "I see. Tha's it then. I couldn't convince you after all," Tsumuji replied while leaping iforward towards the Battousai. The Battousai let go of his wife's hands as it's now safe. "Stay back," he said before leaping forward. They blocked each others katana in a swing and backed away almost instantly. "Battousai.IT's no use now. I've got explosion. They'll start blowing up the whole Osaka soon," Tsumuji replied in a mocking tone. "Is that right? Let's see then," the Battousai replied slightly annoyed and they leap into battle again. The Battousai uses the Kuzuryusen tactic while Tsumuji uses the Izuna tactic. They were both tossed backwards. There were cuts on Tsumuji's body but for the Battousai, only his michiyuki were cut. "Let's finished this in the next attack. I hate wasting time," the Battousai said a sheathed his katana and crouched lower , hand on the katana's hilt. "Come," he said as Tsumuji leap forward using the Tobi Izuna tactic. The Battousai unsheathed his katana in the ultimate speed and finished him off using the Amakakeru-Ryunohirameki. Tsumuji dropped to the ground bleeding frantically. The Battousai was surprised he did not die after such attack. Tsumuji tried to stand but his legs were trembling so hard. "It's no use now. You've lost," the Battousai said as he approached Kaoru. "No. not yet. Even if I die , there'll still be the explosion and my on will take over me," he replied weakly. "It's too late. He's dead and the explosion will be thrown into the sea by the government. They should have accomplished this by now," he replied while the government's army arrived. "Himura , everything's under control. The explosion had been thrown into the sea," Yamagata said as he approached them. "Arrest him," the Battousai said addressing some army. "The fight's over at last," Yamagata thought inwardly as they heda towards the government's office.
''''''''''
"Thanks Himura. We didn't know what to do if you're not here," Yamagata said. "There'll be no rebels if the government was kind to the peoples," Kenhsin said as he left the room. They had been staying at Yamagata's house for a few days since Osaka's street were already burned to ashes. It'll take time to recover it but as logn as there's no one whos' hurt that'll be fine. He walked back to their room and slid the door open and found Kaoru had fainted on the floor. "Koishii," he shouted as he rushed to her side and pick her up. He laid her on a futon and rushed downstairs to called Kazuki-sensei. He was back to the room with the doctor in a few minutes. She opened her eyes just as they entered the room. "Will you please wait outside?," Kazuki-sensei asked Kenhsin.
Kenshin left the room reluctantly. Worry crossed his feature. The doctor started examining her and left the room after a moment. "Was she sick?," Kenshin asked worriedly. "It's normal. She should tell you herself," with that said he left the room. Kenhsin rushed to her side and kneel down beside her. He took hold of her hands. "Were you sick?," he asked worriedly. "I was meant to tell you this but I didn't want to distract you," she said with a smile while his eyes turned to hers. "I'm ..I'm pregnant," she stuttered out after a moment as a blush came to her face. His eyes opened wide in disbelief as he lost deep in thoguth. "Kenshin?," she said after a moment. "I'm gonna be a father?," he said a moment later. Kaoru nodded happily as he hug her tightly. "Ureshii.," he said as he pushed back a little to look into her eyes. "Let's go back to Tokyo tomorrow," he said while smiling. "Hai," Kaoru replied with watery eyes. She had never seen him smile like that before. It was a heartfelt smile. It's different from the rurouni's smile. This was a true smile of happiness.
''''''''''
They reached Tokyo at evening the next day. "What? you're married and pregnant?," Yahiko and Sano shouted at the same time. "Hey! What's so surprised?," Kaoru asked through gritted teeth. "You scare us. We've not seen for just about 5 months and you came back saying you're married and pregnant?," Megumi said in disbelief. "Hey! You all should congratulate me not interrogating me," she said just before Kenshin entered the room. "Omedeto," their voices echoed through the room. Kenshin smile at them as they left the room. Kaoru was sitting on their futon combing her long raven hair. He got change and moved closer to her. He kneeled beside her and pulled her closer until she was on his lap. "Kenshin?," Kaoru called worriedly as she saw his grim expression. "I was eager to ask you this long ago," Kenshin said while looking into her eyes. "Do you care that I'm a hitokiri? Do you prefer the rurouni?," he asked as he hid his face in the crook of her neck. "Kenshin no baka," she said as she cupped his face in her hands. She look into his eyes and found that his eyes were teary. It make her heart twinge seeing him like that. "Kenshin wa itsumademo Kenhsin. You're the one that I loved always . You are you," she replied without hesitant. He look into her dark sapphire eyes before hugging her again. "Arigatou , koishii," he said.
I now had a place I could truly call a home. I would stay by her side
for as long as her love was with me together with our child.
Kenshin wa itsumademo Kenshin.......
