Yahiko-chan stared at Kenshin. "Why's he staring at me?" Kenshin asked Kaoru in a whisper. "You like just like Shinta, his older brother," Kaoru whispered back. "He was really sad for the past few weeks. Try to make him feel better." "What's his name?" Kenshin asked. "Yahiko-chan," Kaoru answered. "-Chan's on his birth certificate?" Kenshin asked. "Baka, just pretend you're Shinta," Kaoru demanded.
"Yahiko-chan," Kenshin said as he walked to his "brother". Yahiko-chan shook his head. "You're not Shinta," he said. "My brother was killed by a bunch of baka yaoi chan goons!" Auntee gasped. "Yahiko, you've known about this?" Auntee asked. "Hai," Yahiko-chan answered. "I came into the area when I saw Shinta riding away on his motorbike. Unfortunately, the room I was in had soundproof windows, and my brother couldn't hear me screaming his name. When the goons started to chase after him, I knew there was nothing to do, but go home and wait. Later on, Sano saw me walking home and dropped me off. When he came back to tell you and Uncle the news, I had also heard it."
~The poor kid's going through a lot. ~ Kenshin looked behind his shoulder for a moment and Sano running toward them. "Shinta!" he called out. "Are you a ghost? Please don't pull my tongue out because I sweared!" "Calm down, Sanosuke," Kaoru said. "This isn't Shinta, he's Kenshin, Misao's friend." "Why do you look like my best friend?" Sano asked suspiciously. Then a light bulb went off in his head. Sano gasped. "Oh no!" San cried. "Soujiro told me about this! Every superstitious person always has a ghost playing mind games with him! Like the time I thought my coat hanger was a sword and I was about to chop, Soujiro's head off." "Sano!" Kaoru said. "Snap out of it! Shinta's dead. Like I said before, this is Kenshin!"
"You can't prove that to me, Missy," Sano pointed out. "You're just saying that so I can't sue you!" Kenshin decided it was his turn to speak. "Kaoru, give me a mirror," Kenshin said. Kaoru reached into her purse and gave him a portable fashion mirror. "Observe, Sanosuke," Kenshin said. "If I were a ghost, my reflection wouldn't appear in this mirror, now would it?" Sano stared into the mirror. "OK, Kenshin," Sano said. "I believe you." Kenshin gave Sano a sorry look to show that he was sorry he fooled Sano. "Yo, dog it's cool," Sano said. "We're gonna homeys; you are moving in, ne?" "I guess," Kenshin said. "But it's my first time in Japan. I'm not exactly sure."
The six of them waited until it was confirmed that the goons had either given up or had been arrested. Kenshin, Kaoru, and Sano went to Kaoru's house for a while. "Miss Kaoru, what shall your snack be today?" a maid asked. "Oh, something simple," Kaoru said. "With cheese!" Sano added. "Make them bite-size!" Kenshin also added. "Pretzels too!" Sano called after her as the maid left.
"We've got to do something about Kenshin," Kaoru said as she put a cheese cracker into her mouth. "What do you mean?" Sano asked with a full mouth so it sounded more like, "What're ya mean?" "I mean," Kaoru said swallowing her cracker. "Everyone's going to think Kenshin's Shinta, no matter what we say." "How're we supposed to solve that problem?" Kenshin asked. "Well," Kaoru said. "I was thinking that we make them think Kenshin is Shinta." Kenshin and Sano stared at her. "We'll do a 'The Return of Shinta' concert. At the end, Kenshin's gonna fess up that he's Kenshin and not Shinta!" "What if the fans are mad because it's Kenshin and not Shinta?" Sano asked reaching toward the bowl of cheese crackers. "What if they ask for a refund?" "They won't," Kaoru said. "Because Kenshin has just as much as talent as Shinta does, it'll be worth it. Trust me."
And so Kenshin, Kaoru, and everyone else got busy preparing for the concert. From what everyone heard, people were coming form as far as Kobe just to see "Shinta"! The concert was going to have three sponsors: Coca- Cola, Hershey's, and Yahoo-JP (Yahoo-Japan)! Barely anyone could wait for that day to come; it was gong to be live on TV and for real!
The big day arrived, and Kenshin's stomach was in knots. Sano went over the checklist ten times just to make sure everything was perfect. Kaoru was walking up and down the room. Oh, the tension and anticipation!
Yahiko-chan, Auntee, and Uncle were given a private room to view the concert on a television set. Before Kenshin went up to do his first song, Yahiko-chan stopped to talk to him. "Kenshin," he said. "I know you're not my brother, but I know you have superior talent just like him. I have a lot of faith in you; I know you're gonna make the crowd go wild tonight. And, last of all, I know you're going to make me and Shinta very proud!" Yahiko- chan, forgetting that it was Kenshin in front of him, gave Kenshin a hug. "Don't worry," Kenshin whispered to him. "I'll make you and your brother proud." Yahiko and Kenshin gave each other the thumbs-up sign- the evening was just too perfect.
