When the red haired girl awoke the next morning she sat up and stretched yawning. Her hair was down no longer in the high ponytail. She sleepily wiped her narrow eyes and stood up, taking her sword as she did so. Her white hair tie was in her pocket but she made no reach for it. The lose feeling actually felt good.
Sliding open the wooden door she stepped out onto the deck surrounding the Dojo. The wonderful smell of breakfast cooking entered her nose and made Ninjin smile. It had been a long time since she had smelled something so wonderful.
The rounded the next corner and saw Yahiko practing with his wooden sword, and Kenshin was cooking happily. She did see Kaoru anywhere.
"Good morning Miss. Ninijn." Kenshin called smiling. Ninijn smiled back taking her hairpiece from her pocket. In a little under two seconds her hair was tied neatly at the top of her head. She walked over and took a seat next to Kenshin watching him stir the soup.
"That really smells good. I don't think I have smelled something like that since I left Kyoto." She sniffed the air again.
"You lived in Kyoto?" Kenshin asked surprised.
"Yeah, but I decided to leave. Things got out of control and I had enough of being my fathers 'messenger.'" She signed. "He wasn't too happy about me leaving, neither were a few other people." Her eyes narrowed slightly she was still watching him stir.
"Oh. Well what ever makes you happy Miss Ninjin."
She turned and smiled happily at Kenshin. "I have to say I agree."
Yahiko walked over to the two red heads and sat down between them. He had been easdropping on their conversations.
"What type of people are they?"
"Yahiko, you shouldn't pry into others peoples business, that you shouldn't." Kenshin warned. Yahiko looked slightly embarrassed and turned away rolling his eyes. Ninjin chuckled.
"Its okay Yahiko, but I do think its best if you didn't know their names."
Kenshin and Yahiko both looked at her. At that time Kaoru emerged from the Dojo caring her own wooden sword. She smiled at them and took a seat next to Ninjin.
"Good morning." She said. "Mmmm. Smells good Kenshin."
"Thank you very much Miss. Kaoru." Kenshin pulled out bowls and poured the soup into each then passed them out. They enjoyed their breakfast and had a pleasant conversation as they did so.
After about thirty minutes Kaoru stood and left off to train her students. Yahiko went back to practing and Kenshin decided to do another load of laundry. Ninjin asked that if she could help with anything but Kenshin said there was nothing that needed to be done. So with out anything to do Ninjin told him she had some errands to be ran and she'd be back in an hour or so.
Tokyo was busy that day the many rushing shoppers and market owners rushing about. The occasional cop would rush by after some pick pocket or higher priced criminal. Only a few choice people paid any attention to Ninjins sword, but those who did shot her nasty looks.
She ignored them of course, going about her own business. Her face had hardened, her eyes narrowed seriously. She made her way threw the crowed emotionlessly until she reached the end of the city and turned walking down to the banks of the river. She stood near a tree gazing out at the flowing water.
"What do you want Inko?" She said calmly her tone harsh, but somewhat amused.
A shadow jumped down from the third tree next to the water. The face of a man appeared as he looked up and half-smiled. He wore a normal GI a sword at each of his sides. He was bulky built in a muscular way, his black hair tied at the peak of his head only an inch of hair hung down.
His Grey eyes were naturally happy looking and smiled when he smiled.
"When did you notice?" He asked curiously.
"I noticed you last night, then this morning. I'm surprised the Battousai didn't." Her gaze never left the river.
"You know why I'm here then?" He asked his hand resting on the hilt of his sword. Ninjin signed then looked up and nodded.
"But my answer is no." She said flatly as if knowing what to expect.
"Just as I thought. You really have become like these weaklings Akurei."
Ninjins turned green eyes looking at his own burning into them as if attacking his very soul. Inko shuttered and turned away.
"Don't ever call me that again." She said in a deadly calm tone. He grinned merely chuckling at her, still not able to look her in the eyes.
"Touchy. But you still got it, making me shutter proves something."
"How about you leave now Inko. These people don't need you around them." She turned back to the river. "Your bringing unwanted trouble here."
Inko played with the hilt of his sword watching his fingers in motion. "But I have to do my job you know. That is unless of course you'd like Kinoko showing up." He narrowed his smiling eyes and grinned wickedly.
Ninjin looked to him again this time a mixed look of fear and anger on her face.
"You wouldn't." She said.
"Ah, if it will save my job and life I will little Akurei."
Ninjin ignored the comment starring at him. She reached for her sword but Inko predicted her movement and was in front of her before she drew it. He flipped her around quickly wrapping her arms behind her pulling her to his body.
"I just cleaned the blades, don't make me get your blood on them." He teased. Ninjin grunted her right foot flying up and knocking him in the head. Inko stumbled back holding his forehead cursing silently. Ninjin drew her sword revealing the beautiful diamond clear blade; the sun glinted off it causing mini rainbows. With one swift motion she jumped at Inko flipping her blade to the flat side.
He didn't dodge in time and the blade smashed him directly in the nose. Droplets of blood flew from his nose and mouth as he flew back unconscience into the river drifting off in the current on his back. Ninjin landed smoothly sheathing her sword. Inko would survive but when he came too, (If he didn't drown) he'd be far away and wouldn't reach Kinoko for a long time, she hoped.
She was stalling time, but it was the only thing she knew to do with out killing the him.
"I'm sorry Inko." Ninjin said quietly. "But I can not let you bring Kinoko back. I refuse to bring those type of people to Tokyo, and let them kill my new --- friends." She smiled to herself. She only knew these people a day, but somehow she knew they would be in her life for a long time. She turned and left for the Kamiya Dojo -- for now her new residence.
Unknown noticed by the young Samurai, a familiar face saw her in action, and over heard everything she had said. He narrowed his eyes slightly and he shoved his hands into his pocket and walked off.
