"Destiny I foretold."
+ + + +
I watched now feeling myself feel lost under his gaze what death like gaze.
"You can see everything in another's eyes. how they are and how they feel.even if their hands are ruthless and stained with blood.there heart mite be gentle." My mother's face appeared in my head and what she said. Her smile soft but sad a lovely women indeed.
Before I could loss myself to her image I was thrown back to reality and to the young man standing before me. And then he moved. Swift as the lightning of a god, I had no time to think but to react my body sprung back and just in time I blocked his downward slash with my sheath.if not a second later I would be cut in half.
He looked a little stunned to say the least.
~~~~~~~(Kenshin point of view)~~~~~~~
I was in disbelief, she was able to move in time as well as block the attack her sheath must have not been a normal sheath for which could with stand my cut.
I stud in fighting possession sliding my blade back to its sheath and kept my hand on the hilt. She now had drawn her katana placing the sheath back to her side and stud in a common fighting stance. She looked determined.well it was her life she would lose if she made the wrong move. It puzzled me she was dressed like a lady but she had a sword how weird. I never met a girl to do this.
'She killed him didn't she.then she must know to much.and as an assassin I have to kill those who know to much." I was ready to kill her then I didn't feel pity or guilt.
I rushed at her and drew my blade I was ready for the blood of a young maiden but my blade did not hit anything it had just sliced air. In shock I looked up she had dogged my attack as I squinted my eyes to looking directly at the full moon I saw a figure. Raising my sword it met with hers at full speed I felt her full body weight and even though it was not much I almost found my self-fall over.
Her face was less then a foot away are katana's grinding against each other.
Blue orbs that's what her eyes where like her emotions hit me like a full blown attack. Anger, sadness, lost. All in her eyes but they didn't seem so stained with blood like others had.
Yet there was no fear in them none at all she looked at me with eyes that showed no fear of how I was. Just like Tomoe at the thought of my past lover I drew back as so did she.
"Tomoe." I found myself whispering her memories still with me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~(Kaoru point of view)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
His face and eyes changed all color drained out of his face his lips curled into a faint frown and his eyes became sad not very clear for another to see but she could see it.
'He can feel.like others.how strange I shouldn't think like that of course he could feel he IS human so I guess he could but what could have made him just stop he looked like a child who had had his toy token away, But before I could think anymore about it his eyes flashed to the way they where before just as fast as he had changed.
"Who are you?" He said between almost grit teeth. His face lowered slightly so his bangs where covering his eyes.
"A goddess." I found myself saying thinking how weird that sounded but then it felt right. I had heard the story when I was just a little girl about the sad goddess who had no way to choose for herself but for the fate of others.
I remember it so well my mother had sat with me as we looked at the full moon just like this one. "Kaoru-chan do you know the story of the Sad goddess." I answered no.
"Well Kaoru-chan I've told you before." She laughed and pulled at my ponytail lightly and we laughed to gather after a while she spoke again.
"She is so sad because no one understands how she feels.she is forced to fight and kill such a sad fate she foretells the destiny of those who will live. I know your father wants you to fight but will you end up like this sad goddess." he words rang in my thoughts.
"destiny I foretold." I looked at him. "I will change this forsaken fate."
He looked at me sheathing his sword.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(Kenshin's point of view)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"A goddess?" I thought it through.
There was a legend of a goddess I remember the story well but I thought when they said there was a fighter that was nicknamed the goddess. I never thought a female would be a fighter who has killed so many I thought it was only a rumor to keep them from finding out the real killer.
"The fighter who was given the nick name the goddess that you are?" I looked her over carefully.
"Yes." She said standing straight with out fear. Very rare to find even for a man but a female never had I seen.
She reminded me to much of Tomoe but this girl acted different even though Tomoe was older and much more quit this girl showed life she was younger then me but she seemed almost wise.yet still a child. I knew why they gave her the name.
It was late now and this 'goddess' had done my mission for me. As I was ready to leave a felt another's presence but I guess she had not I waited and to my surprise a figure jumped down from a tree I through myself forward not giving her time to react and found my sword met flesh and pass through blood fell as the body did as well my sword still plunged into the attacker.
I could hear her breath slow down as I pulled away from the body wiping the blood that had gotten onto my face then I turned to her, her eyes glanced at he body then at me. I was expecting to see fear in her eyes but there was none. She was use to the blood I could tell.
Use to death just like I was.
I could hear more men and I knew they where after this young girl so I knew I had to get her away.
I normally didn't care but this was different. The thing was she wouldn't come with me with out a fight and I knew this well so when she lest suspected it I punched her in the stomach.
"Baka!" she whispered as she blacked out and I picked her up.
I slung her over my shoulder not wanting to waste time and started to run off, I past through the tree's with ease the moon light lighting my path. "Thank Kami." I whispered aloud as though she could hear me.
I could go with out light but this made it was easier on me. I could still hear others behind us but it was faint they where to far but just to be safe I kept going heading to a secret little home at the other side of the woods there I could see what I would do with this girl.
Thoughts of what I should do.and if I should kill her
Once I got to the small dark little house I opened the door and walked in. The girl still over my shoulder. I laid her down on the mattress (forgot the Japanese name). I opened the sliding door, which lead into the only other room in the house. I went to the little fireplace and lighted it and started to make a meal.
The home had been abandoned and I was staying there for a while at lest.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(Kaoru's Dream)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A cold winter night it was. Soft cold wind touched her pale skin, She looked to the moon for guidance but not even the moon couldn't help her. Slim fingers ran through the long raven of treasure that was her hair. She pulled the white Kimono tighter around her slim body as if she where cold but she could feel nothing she was num.
"Is this my fate.For loving this place." crystal like tears formed at her blue eyes. "a goddess.yet I cant even live my own destiny but I can choose for others." She sat under a tree one weather wing and one demon wing. The sign that she could never get ride of.
She hated Darkness for taking her. She could never be anyone's as she thought this someone came up behind her and before she could scream..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(Kaoru's point of view)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I let out a scream I could stop myself. Before I knew it I was no longer in that winter night.that dream.that's all it was. I whispered over and over to myself to keep myself calm.
It was so strange I had never had a dream like that.my heart was racing yet I couldn't wait to see who it was.
I put a hand to my forehead, which now was all sweaty from the dream and calmed my self down.
"What's wrong!" a startled young man answered. I focused my eyes to the light that had just come in as the door had opened and I noticed it was the same young man. The same one from earlier and I looked around I was no longer outside but in a room. It was dark earlier but now I could see everything around me.
I was in his home I guess once my mind stopped racing and the pain that I just started to feel in my stomach started I looked at him holding my stomach slightly.
"It was only a bad dream."
