Half Moon
Chapter five: Savior
A/N: Sorry, I really haven't updated in such a long time. I was in California, so I really couldn't do anything. I came back and realized I forgot about this fanfic. Well, I have an idea, that will make the story a lot more juicy, considering I have HUGE writers block. On to the story!!
Warning: Rape scene.kinda.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As she looked around, her surroundings became clearer and clearer through the continuous rain that was pounding on her cold white skin. She shivered slightly, her hair tangling up beside her eyes, making it nearly impossible to see. She moved up her hand to her hair, and pulled it back, in vain, as it simply slid forward.
She hated her stubborn hair, which ceased every opportunity it could get to annoy her. She, once more, and for the last time as well, brushed her hair back, and it hooked behind her ear for a couple of seconds, before falling back into her face. Rolling her eyes, she took a few steps down the lonely alley. Seeing a light, she reached out to the door. The glass showed her small fragile, 9 year-old body, which seemed nearly ghostly amidst the cold rain.
She opened the door to her tiny home, which was set in back of a large bar. However, the exact moment she opened the door, she was sprayed with a red liquid. She sniffed the air, and smelt blood, which had stained her purple kimono. Looking up, she saw nearly 50 bodies sprawled along the bar, most missing body parts, or having blood ooze out of her neck.
Her eyes jammed open in panic, looking around and seeing her father with a blade through his shoulder, sliding down the bar stool. She broke into tears, as she ran to his side, not noticing the 7 swordsman, which remained at the doors side, their bloodstained katanas held high above their head, as if to dive into a strike.
Her father, gasping, reached up a hand to Kaoru, and pulled her small fragile face down roughly. He leaned his head up, his eyes jamming open as he reached up his mouth to her ear, and whispered a single word before, falling back onto the wood ground, dead.
" Run! "
Only then did she notice that he had a tiny dagger embedded into his neck, and she cried; so hard that she nearly lost consciousness. Her mother, creaking open the back door, gently whispered for her to come in. However, Kaoru's tears of sorrow for her dead father drowned her mother's command out.
The assassins, with their cloaked bodies, lunged forwards, all 7 of them at once. Two lunged to the left, two lunged right, two lunged forward, and one merely jumped up, forward.
The left and right assassins slammed through the walls, cornering the young woman, who was standing in the middle of the room. The two assassins slammed through the door, and went around her, skidding to a halt and turning as they reached the back door. The last landed in front, smirking.
She stood there, quivering in her purple kimono. Young Kaoru stopped crying, and turned around, the light finally shining on her face. She was extremely beautiful, and looked much better than her mother did, even through the age difference. She peeped her head through a hole in the wall, and saw what she didn't expect or ever want to see.
On the middle of the floor, her mother was laid, naked, on the floor. The 7 men seemed to be taking turns on sucking different parts of her body. Her eyes jammed open in panic, as she turned around and ran full speed away from her mother.
One of the assassins, noticing her presence, gave a small smirk, and lunged after her, tackling her very hard to the ground. She laid there crying, while the man smirked, and licked his lips.
" Well, well, well. You're a pretty one. "
" Don't hurt me! " came the response between her sobs.
" Oh I think ill have fun with you." the man whispered his hands trailing to untie her obi.
Gently tugging on it, he pulled it loose, and reached his hand to unfold her kimono, when he fell back, his eyes rolled back into his head the same way as her father did. It took a few moments for a large slash to appear on his neck, causing blood to spurt, and two calm hands pulled the small girl away, while the other 6 assassins, killing off the woman they had been raping, ran out into the main room.
Suddenly the lights went out, all candles being sliced by a katana. The smell of fresh blood stenched the air, as a figure moved towards each of the 6 assassins. Suddenly, two more hands picked up the young girl and carried her outside. As the double glass doors opened, a small bell rang from above them.
She looked up at the figure, and saw the right side of his handsome face, along with red hair. That was all that was visible, because he nodded, and ran off, leaving her alone in the rain.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kaoru woke up the next morning, sighing sadly. She had the nightmare of the night she lost both her parents, and she sniffed. She wiped her tear- stained cheek gently, and staggered to the door. Stiffening up, she turned around, and walked back, to the bed once more. She sighed sadly, and made sure the door was closed before pulling something from the sleeve of her kimono. It was a scrawled note, which she had received at the Dojo she stayed at when she was nearly 10 years old.
It read:
' Hey, I know you've had a hard time, but just pull through. '
- Savior -
She sighed sadly. She had always wondered who this man could possibly be. She even forgot what he looked like, all she could remember was red hair. Then again, she knew several people with red hair. There was also the fact that they could have used dye.
It seemed she would never find her savior. She walked back to the bathroom, which was right next to her closet, and took a quick bath, and changed into a light green colored kimono. It reminded her of her spring, and she smiled.
She sat down on the bed, not wanting to face Kenshin. She had slit both his wrists, and thought that he could be single at the same time. She really did need a lover, she felt so left out. At this point, anyone would do. Even Kenshin.who at least had looks, and a rough attitude to go along with it. Scowling she sighed and closed her eyes, positioned on her pillow.
A quiet voice spoke up from a corner of her dark room, as she had only one window, which she had closed the curtains, leaving her room in near total darkness, although it was daytime. She lit a candle, and illuminated the face of Kenshin, with soft violet eyes. She was taken aback, and simply hid under the covers. Reading her note once more, she reached to put the note back into her sleeve, but the covers ripped open, and a smiling Kenshin very gently, and softly, tugged the note from her.
" Give it back you dirty filthy cheating slob! "
Kenshin smiled amusedly and his violet eyes scanned the letter, before looking back up at her. His eyes played a soft blue glint to them, reflecting off a layer of happiness.
" So you DID get my note, I was hoping I hadn't sent it to someone else."
" What are you talking about, I got this note ove- "
" Over ten years ago? At the Kamiya Dojo? After someone saved you from an attack of 7 assassins, and your mother raped? Oh yeah, I remember that.she was quite pretty. But you really did have a LOT more looks than she did, trust me. "
All this time Kaoru stood there frozen, utterly shocked. She couldn't move, and her brain had stopped working, as did her heart. She simply sat there, staring into Kenshin's blue eyes, searching for the truth, and finding nothing but what he had just revealed.
Kenshin smiled, and sat down beside her. And he smiled, sitting just to her right.
" I saw you fidgeting in your sleep.are you okay? Does it still haunt you..? "
She couldn't think of what to say. Why was he being so nice? As if reading her mind, he answered it without her needing to ask.
" Are you surprised by my personality? "
She nodded.
" Well.. You have never met my true personality.the one that's shielded by the fearsome Battousai. You see, this is who I really am."
He took her hand in his, and smiled gently gripping it. She squeezed his hand in response, and lightened up. He leaned forward, and gently kissed her on the lips, his eyes closing as their lips made contact. She mimicked him, and pulled him onto her, and his arms found their way down to her waist, as their kiss deepened.
Suddenly, and with a loud bang, the door was opened, and Tomoe waltzed in, smiling. She saw Kenshin with Kaoru on the ground, and her eyes widened. Tears began to flow from her soft eyes, and she turned on foot, and ran out of his home, crying.
' Oh shit. ' kenshin thought.
