Kaoru stood at the back of the stadium (where all the cheap people sat) just to get a view of everything. The microphones were new and the speakers were turned up loud. She watched as the screaming for "Shinta" stopped as five monk-like figures dressed in gold robes came out. They were humming to the tune of Moon, Stars, and Flowers.
Some of the fans frowned, thinking this was just another stupid mini- show, but it really wasn't. The monks threw off their robes and appeared Kenshin and his four male background dancers (Aoshi [haha!], Sano, Soujiro, and some other guy). Kenshin stared for a few short seconds and started to sing---
In this meeting of celebrities music will blossom
That on the lips have come the words of the heart
One heart calls out to another
Look I have come, to meet with you again
Destination, is your love.
The fans were screaming. Kenshin did a few dances an he touched a few hands. For a moment, both Kaoru and Yahiko forgot that Shinta was no longer there. "Shinta!" the two of them cried. "Make them happy!"
Kenshin's first song was over and Kenshin went backstage for a quick change of clothes. Meanwhile, Aoshi came off the stage to join his friend in the audience. "It was quite a laugh to see you dance," Kaoru said. "Yeah well," Aoshi said. "You've got to admit, I've got some moves." "Yeah." Kaoru said. "But you ain't the man." Aoshi gave Kaoru a surprised look. "Kenshin is!"
Kenshin came back onto the stage and the crowd went wild again. "ARE YOU READY?" Kenshin hollered to the audience. "YEAH!" the called back. "Oh, I have get back up stage," Aoshi said. "Later." "CAN YOU FEEL IT?" Kenshin asked them. "YEAH!" they answered. "Then let's go for it," he said in a calmer voice. The Music began to play and he sang---
My heart is impatient to hear it again and again say it -its love. Say it aloud I love you, say it aloud that I love you.
Yes I love you, love you I do. In these sweet talks, there is a hidden agreement say it aloud I love you, say it aloud that I love you.
Kaoru turned pale. It wasn't possible! Shinta and Kaoru only sang that at that island! She rushed to Shinta's songbook (where he wrote his songs) and flipped through the pages. ~If this song's not there, it's really Shinta! ~ But there it was, at the very end of the book, written in blue ink. 'For you, Kaoru, my love,' was written at the bottom of the page. Kaoru blew at her chest to calm her heartbeat down.
The crowd went wild as the song came to an end. Unfortunately, that was the end of the concert. (There were more unimportant songs in between) Kenshin gave thank yous, but Kaoru noticed something. The two same goons that were chasing after Kenshin and her had come to the concert. One of them was getting ready to shoot "Shinta" and the other one was coming toward. Kaoru! The first goon shot toward the stage, but it fortunately missed Kenshin. The crowd began to scream again- this time in terror. They all fled in no time at all. The one after Kaoru grabbed one of her arm and started to drag her away. "Kenshin!" was all she could manage to say because the goon had put his hand over he mouth.
The goons hurried her into the back of a van slammed the door shut. Kenshin hurried off the stage and told Sano and Aoshi to come with him. "Be careful!" Yahiko-chan called after the three. "Actually," Sano said. "I think I'm gonna call the cops." Aoshi and Kenshin stared at him. "Hey," Sano said. "Ghosts cut off hands if you fight, so I'm not in this." "Whatever, Rooster head," Aoshi said. "Let's go, Kenshin!"
Kenshin and Aoshi spotted the ugly green van and began to run after it. "Can't we call your limo or something?" Aoshi asked, panting. "No!" Kenshin snapped. "That'll just take longer! Do you want her dead by the time we get there?" Kenshin was becoming very serious. Aoshi smiled at the thought. Kenshin didn't want to lose her, just like a little child wouldn't want to lose his or her teddy bear or blankie. "Aoshi!" Kenshin called his name. But it was too late; Aoshi tripped over something and fell. Kenshin hesitated to stop but he did, just to make sure Aoshi was okay. "Crap!" Aoshi shouted. "Are you okay?" Kenshin asked. "Not exactly," Aoshi answered. "I think I twisted my ankle. You keep going, I'll call Soujiro." "Okay," Kenshin called back. He was already running. "What did I trip over?" Aoshi wondered out loud as he got his cell phone out.
It didn't take long for Kenshin to catch up with the van. He longed for water, but he knew the water could wait. The van went into an abandoned mall parking area. The abandoned mall was right beside it. Kenshin blankly looked around, quietly listening to hear them. Then he heard Kaoru scream. ~She's on the 2nd floor.~ He ran up the old, abandoned stairs. Suddenly, all was silent and there was a loud slapping noise and Kaoru screamed again. "Please be alive," Kenshin prayed.
