Kaoru now stood, not a sound came from her mouth.
::The children are the future.::
She stood up slowly and opened her eyes looking at the men about to kill the boy.
::Killing them will make the future devastated.::
Battousai noticed her eyes were no longer their beautiful blue, but they were a raging... Amber.
***
Battousai looked down and he realized that his katana was missing and looked up to see Kaoru dashing towards the men with it. The men didn't seem to notice Kaoru dashing towards them and were about to swing down on the boy's head. A 'cling' sound made the boy open his eyes in shock as Kaoru stood holding the katana against the man's sword. Quickly she slashed both of the men's head's off which both of their body's then fell on the ground in a bloody mass. Kaoru turned to Battousai holding the katana pointing it at him. The boy was in complete shock until Kaoru's raspy voice rang in his ears, "go." She commanded hearing the boy's footsteps run the other direction. Battousai narrowed his eyes, "you know I'll catch up to him..." Kaoru shook her head, "no, if you don't get through me." He held the hilt of his wakazashi and was about to draw it when he heard someone clapping slowly.
"I must say... Your skills haven't diminished one bit." A voice said behind Kaoru, "Hiko. That is what you wanted, ne?" Battousai looked on in complete confusion, raising a eyebrow. "Yes I suppose so," Hiko answered stepping out of the shadows and standing by Kaoru. Kaoru threw the katana to Battousai who caught it and resheathed it. Kaoru turned to Hiko, "haven't seen you in 8 years." Hiko smirked, "did you miss me?" Kaoru shook her head, "not at all." Battousai looked from Kaoru to Hiko and wondered how the two knew each other. Hiko turned to the Battousai, "hey you, baka deishi..." Battousai glared at him angrily, but Hiko continued anyway, "go to HQ tomorrow and I'll explain everything." Kaoru stared at Hiko and bowed slightly. Hiko smirked and then sent dagger glares at Battousai, "you see you baka deishi, some deishi's appreciate their master." With that he turned around and left into the darkness. It took a while for his words to sink in for Battousai, "DEISHI?!" Kaoru walked over to him and brushed past him. Battousai stared at her, "where are you going?" Kaoru turned around, "back to your apartment, baka!"
He furrowed his brows, why was everyone calling him a baka?! He followed her back to his apartment in a semi-fast pace, keeping up with her. She was pretty fast even with a kimono on. Suddenly she turned around and glared at him. He raised an eyebrow, "hai?" "I'll need a katana." And with that she started walking again. Once she reached the apartment she crossed her arms waiting for him to open the door. Once he did she quickly brushed past him into the kitchen, he slid the door shut locking it and then looked at her. She got out some sake and poured herself a cup and drank without hesitation. She sighed, "ah... Good old sake." Battousai stared at her. She put the sake back in it's place and stepped out of the kitchen looking at him. "Why don't you ever sleep on the bed?" He groaned, he didn't want to answer her stupid questions, "I have no use for comfort." She huffed, "neither do I." He raised his eyebrow again, "so why have you been sleeping on it?" She shook her head, "or you that stupid? I haven't been out in years."
He looked at her in complete confusion; not that it was shown on his face. She walked to the bedroom and he thought she would go to sleep but she brought out all of her kimonos. "What are you doing?" He asked which caused a glare to come from her, "these kimonos are too pretty for someone as ugly as me." She said without a hint of sadness in her voice. He laughed, "so your going to wear nothing?" She smiled evilly, "you would like that wouldn't you?" He pondered, "yeah," he said in a husky-like voice. She shook her head, "besides you've got plenty of hakama and gi's, killing in kimonos isn't all that great." "Killing?" He looked at her. She smacked her forehead, "you truly are stupid. Haven't you figure out why Hiko wanted you to kidnap me, why he wanted you to bring me to the teahouse, why he wanted you to bring me to that assassination?" He furrowed his eyebrows going to deep thought. "Nevermind... You'll find out tomorrow." She walked off into the bedroom and he swore he heard her mutter, "this is the great manslayer?"

~The next day...~
Battousai and Kaoru were walking up the steps of the Ishinshisi HQ into Hiko's office. Kaoru had gotten one of battousai's hakama and gi's on and some bandages to cover her breasts. Battousai had stayed up most of the night going over the questions Kaoru had asked him, finally he would get some answers from Hiko. Knocking on the door and not bothering to wait for an answer he went in followed by Kaoru. Kaoru took a spot against the wall unsheathing a spear katana that Battousai had given her this morning. She ran her hand over it to see how sharp it was causing a little cut to form on her finger. Battousai had took a spot on the wall opposite of her. Hiko was at his desk watching at the two until Battousai said in a iritated voice, "Hiko. I want some answers." Hiko smirked. Kaoru resheathed the katana and closed her eyes, this was going to take a while.
Battousai was pretty shocked at what Hiko had told him. First off Hiko had gotten him to kidnap Kaoru in order to make her a Hitokiri, it was true that a lot of the Ishinshisi numbers had recently died down by some unexpected ambushes from the Shinsingumi by why he wanted Kaoru was beyond him. Second, he had gotten him to bring her to the teahouse with the intention of having that guy flirt with her, but Hiko admitted he got a little too off hand, probably too drunk. Third off, the assassination of the child was just an act to get Kaoru's hidden personality to come out. Weird enough she had another personality like himself, but he never let his other personality come out yet at least not in front of Kaoru. Hiko still didn't specify why she still had to say with him in his apartment, they were plenty of other rooms she could stay in.
Leaving the room Kaoru was bored, she had to listen to Hiko explain to Battousai about what she already knew. The only thing interesting she found out was Battousai's name. "So... Himura is it?" He growled, "you knew me as Battousai so continue to do so." "Sure 'Himura-san.'" She said imitating Soujirou's voice causing another low growl from him. They ascended off the steps and Kaoru saw that woman that had given Battousai herbs for her vision that time there looking like she was waiting for someone. She saw Battousai and called out to him, "Ken-san, how are you?" Battousai let out another growl. She came up to Kaoru smiling, "I must thank you." Kaoru looked at her confused, "for what?" Megumi flipped her hair over her shoulder, "for helping that baka roaster head, he would have taken forever finding that book I needed." At that moment Sanosuke came out and walked over to the three, "hey." He said looking at Kaoru, "how you been doing Jou-chan?" Kaoru glared at him, "I'm not little..." Sanosuke smirked, "sure, Jou-chan. Whatever you say..."

Vegeta26 - Mou! I think your misunderstanding the part about her visions. She's not seeing the future but the past; her past visions. As for why Battousai took her with him, I hope this chapter explained that to you.
Elven Mischief - Your simple words tell me to continue! THANK YOU SO MUCH for putting me on your fav. list!
Chibi - Thank you. Yeah that's a good idea but I'll still thinking about the lemon since it won't be for at least 4 chapters.
Ayuka - Your welcome ^-^! Your so right -.- well I'll go fix it to tear marks sometime... Yeah like I did for chapter 3, but i think lemons are rated NC-17. I'm glad you think I portrayed Sano accurately, sorry I couldn't think anything else at the moment to put in that chapter so that's why it was so short. Hehe! More fluff coming soon!
karouxxxk - Thank you! I will! THANK YOU SO MUCH for putting me on your fav. list!
chris - Yes. Remember the haunting vision she had? That was a child she had killed before. Now she vows to never let a child die again. I don't think anyone can be stronger then the Battousai, ne? I'm still thinking about the lemon part.
Silver Goddess - Okay!
