Kenshin: To kill her.

+++++++ Chapter 4 "What becomes of snow?" ++++++

~~~~~(Authors point of view)~~~~~

The confused Assassin sat cross-legged facing Kaoru she had already pulled her hand away and put it back over the other hand which laid on her lap.

"I understand how you are and how you feel." She whispered looking into the flames of the fire not wishing to look at Kenshin.

"Both shroud in darkness

Sadness, their tale.

Loneliness, their vow.

Death, their name."

Kaoru said softly. " We both fight for what we believe.yet does that mean that we are truly happy?" she said it in a sad tone her eyes never leaving the flames as though the flames would answer her.

"For are sadness comes happiness to the next.for our blood we can save those who wish for a better chance of living.for are death we give the world a new life." Kenshin said his face serious.

To this Kaoru looked at him and she nodded.

"That is the truth. but you don't have to live that destiny alone." She smiled softly moving her hair over her shoulders slightly.

'She seems so innocent so pure. how could such a girl kill.' Kenshin thought as he looked at Kaoru who was now distracted by a firefly that had gotten inside.

"Hotaru-dono!" she smiled at the dragonfly.

Kenshin smiled for the first time since Tomoe died. ' She is sweet I wish I could save her from this forsaken world.What are you thinking Kenshin.you could never care for this girl! Remember Tomoe!.' He argued with himself.

Not noticing that Kaoru had gotten up and was walking over to the door, She slid the sliding door, which lead outside. "Hotaru-dono this way." she called to the dragonfly who was still flying around then it finally left through the door. She watched it flies away but her eyes went wide in horror as she saw the Dragonfly sliced through by a sword.

She let out a startled scream which cot Kenshin's attention as he jumped up grabbing his Katana, which was lying next to him and rushed over to Kaoru's side.

(First off telling you know in this the times and age's are not right I know but in this Enishi is older.if you haven't seen the Eps with Enishi in it or the movie Samurai X reflections you will not know what's going on -.- '' gomen. but Enishi is as old as he is in Reflection and in the Eps. Well if you don't mind on with the story!)

There stud a young man taller then Kaoru and Kenshin, With short spiked white hair and small framed glasses he had on white pants and white long button long sleeved over coat. He held a long sword in his hand not a katana but a new tip of sword that foreigners would use.

A crazed evil grin was on his pretty boy face. Kaoru was about to get her Katana but Kenshin did not let her pass. He Knew Enishi and he didn't know what evil shit he had planned. Even though Kenshin knew perfectly well that Kaoru COULD fight. He was to protective of the thought. Even though he didn't know why he would be.

"What the hell do you want Enishi." Kenshin said aloud anger and annoyance at the young man.

"You dead." Enishi answered with no hesitation in his voice. "And I see you are over my sister and getting a replacement." His voice was covered with venom.

Kaoru already didn't like this guy she wanted so badly to get her Katana and show this 'Enishi' whom was boss and kick his ass.

"Kaoru-dono please go inside the house and wait I will be back shortly." Kenshin's voice was so calm.

Kaoru did not liking that idea but did as she was told holding down her anger.

"You even have her trained." Enishi said loud enough for Kaoru to hear.

Kaoru clenched her fist to her side and went to her room and closed the door grabbing her Katana and waited for the right time.

"You leave her out of this.this is between you and me Enishi.no one else." Kenshin stepped out and placed a foot onto the grass and then the other.

"You murderer.I'm going to love killing you." Enishi pointed his blade at Kenshin who was now about 5 feet away from him. Kenshin said nothing ignoring Enishi's remarks.

Kaoru slides the door open from the second room and stepped out and walked over so she had her back against the door that lead outside she stayed quit trying to hear the two.

Enishi was the first to move. Kaoru peeked to the side of the door watching and holding her katana close to her chest. She watched the two who where evenly matched clashing against each other.

'What the hell I'm not a little girl anymore I could fight, That baka KNOWS! I can fight! I will prove it to him. he doesn't need to fell like he has to protect me.' She looked on as the two fought like titans, with such speed and strength.

'Enishi is better then I thought. I cant take this fight lightly or it may end up costing my life.' Kenshin tried to thrust his blade into Enishi's chest but the blade misted.

"That girl. you like her don't you." Enishi said with a low chuckle as he noticed something in Kenshin's eyes that proved his theory.

"Then all take her away from you. just like you did with Tomoe." Enishi hit a nerve making Kenshin thrust Enishi so that he hit a tree.

"Bingo." Enishi said slightly out loud as he wiped the blood that was dripping from his mouth with his free hand.

Enishi and Kenshin's fight went on.

"That bastered! How dare he say that! I'm not some kind of flippen toy!" Kaoru said to herself loosing all patience and moved so she would be standing at the door but nether Enishi or Kenshin noticed her standing there.

Kenshin became distracted when he did and was not fast enough when Enishi came down on him but he was fast enough to put up a slight block protecting himself, sending his katana flying behind Enishi.

Kenshin did not have his shorter blade so was mostly defenseless not trained in hand to hand combat.

Everything went fast Enishi lunged at Kenshin, as Kaoru did like wise. The sound of blades slicing flesh hit Kenshin's ears while the sent of blood hit his nose.

Kaoru's katana blade had stabbed into Enishi bit it did not hit any vital organs.

Enishi's blade went above her left breast barley missing the heart.

The two faced each other Kaoru and Enishi both pulling out the blades from themselves.

Kaoru feel backwards as Kenshin moved to catch her as Enishi held the wound, bleeding heavily he looked at Kaoru with wide eyes. "Tomoe." he whispered huskily as he saw his sister in this girl.he forced himself to get away. he was to wounded to fight any longer even he knew that.

~~~~~~~~~~~(Kaoru's point of view)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was lying in Kenshin's arms, I saw Enishi's figure stumble away. Damnit how could I be so clumsy.I guess it was pride.and I had to do something.The baka assassin would have gotten himself killed.

"Kuso." I said aloud looking at the sad face of Kenshin.

Why the hell was he so sad? Does he think I'm going to die? Come on I was given the nickname the goddess for a reason. I wanted to reassure him but I couldn't move to much it fucking hurt.

"Kaoru-dono you shouldn't have done that." He said it with more sadness then anger.

Oh shit he really thinks I'm going to die. His eyes said it all! They where not the same as they always where but had a hint of purple, violet.

"Kenshin, can you just call me Kaoru." I tried to lay the loud off of him.I knew what he was thinking.That what happened to Tomoe will happen to me.

I'm not that weak.I don't give up that easily.

I reached up to touch the cross-shaped scar. and I knew there was a sad sorry behind it.

The pain became over whelming.and I felt I was losing myself..

I could feel darkness coming around me and I could hear Kenshin saying my name over and over.

Yet it felt like I was under water and that's how I could hear. I whispered don't worry.

As I slowly drifted of to a dark place.
