Thank you so much for the reviews, I feel really honored ^_^
Important: This chapter deals with violence so I think this should be rated R.
[-"..."- = Kaoru talking to herself as she's having a vision]
Battousai had left Kaoru with what she would like to call a babysitter, since he had gone on another mission. This guy was really get ten on her nerves he watched her like a hawk, said nothing, and never moved. "Couldn't you at least tell me your name?" Kaoru pleaded, he blinked, "Not important." Kaoru angrily glared but then put a questionable look on, "who was that girl with you earlier?" She remembered when he had come over with a girl standing by his side she was happy, and very polite. She had a ninja outfit on and her hair was long and braided. The girl had handed her a bag of kimonos and Kaoru was very happy to change into one. She was wearing a dark blue one at the moment. He seemed to open up a bit at the mention of her, "Misao. Why does it matter to you?" Kaoru frowned, "because it's the only interesting thing that's really happened." That was the truth, Battousai was getting really annoying all he did was either stare at her with no expression or closed his eyes and look deep in thought. This man was like Battousai she admitted, he wasn't as scary though, but he let out no emotions or anything. "If that's the most interesting thing in your life right now, I must say that sounds very non-interesting." She blinked, where did that come from?
After the man went back to silence she now understood him; he's silent, he saves up words in his head to say whenever he chooses to speak. At least that's the impression she got out of him. At that moment she could hear the turning of a key near the door and the slowly opening of it. There stood Battousai covered in blood eyes narrowing around the room. His eyes landed on Kaoru who was staring at him, he then looked at the man who was previously watching her. He was getting up from his chair, walking over to the Battousai. The man nodded and was about to leave, "wait!" Kaoru pleaded, he turned around to face her. "I didn't get your name..." The man sighed to himself, "Aoshi," he simply stated. Kaoru bowed her head, "thank you Aoshi-sama." He nodded and left while Battousai shut the door. Kaoru looked away from him, his glaring plus blood all over him didn't exactly make him look all that nice. He smirked amusingly for a split second, then started to walk towards the mini-bathhouse in his apartment.
Battousai scrubbed viciously at all the blood at his skin making sure to get it off. His hair was down from it's high ponytail and it clung to his back. He knew Kaoru had gone to bed and he had un-knowingly to her, slept by the door last night. Since she was unconscious it didn't really matter, but she could wake up in the middle of the night so he made sure. He'd do the same every night, he felt that she might try to escape when she think he wasn't expecting it.
Putting a hakama on he grabbed his katana and left his wakazashi in the room he was in this morning. That was a room where he kept extra swords, sharpening tools, and bloody washcloths which he used to whip the blood off his swords after a mission. He walked to the bedroom and slumped down leaning against the door putting the hilt of his katana on his shoulder, he bent his head down and closed his eyes. His eyes shot open when he heard soft crys from the bedroom. He put his hear next to the door and could ear soft murmurs of words like; Stop, don't, what am I doing? He shook his head, she must be having a nightmare or maybe a vision he wondered what kind of vision it could possibly be.
Kaoru stirred, rolling from one side to the other. She was having a haunting vision about herself. She saw herself, she was the nightmare...
***
My hands were covered in blood I was holding a katana which was also covered in blood...
"You killed him!" A girl cried out to me she looked like she was around seven. She was hovering over a body of a man who's blood was everywhere on the ground. She was crying, staring at me in disbelief.
-"Why would I kill him?"-
I gripped the katana tightly, "He-" I began, but was interrupted by the girl...
"You! How could you! I know that he killed your father... But didn't your father teach you the Kamiya Kasshin Ryu? Isn't it the sword supposed to protect people? How could you- how can you protect people if you kill them?!"
-"Protect, didn't that mean something?"-
"I didn't mean to-" I was interrupted again.
"Your father..." Did she dare go there? To speak about my father?
"Would have been..." She did and it only boosted my anger more.
-"NO! Don't kill her!"-
"...disgraced."
Rage built inside me, it was if I was blinded by blood. Before I blinked there a dead girl hung from my katana her arms limp, no movement at all. Her skin pale like a ghost and her eyes white, I dropped the Katana and I screamed.
***
"NO!" Kaoru screamed fear stricken, she sat up quickly and clutched her head. Throwing the blankets off as she did so. She wanted to scream again but couldn't so she cried loudly.
Battousai who now stood at the door was staring at it. Wondering what nightmare she had just seen, judging from her quiet murmurs she had either killed someone or tried not too. He pondered, 'Does she have nightmares like me?'
