I'll post two chapters for answering one of the questions correctly and the other close enough. You can thank Ahara Musici & Mizu Youkai for these chapters! Correct, they never mentioned her name but she has to have one, ne? I'll post a third for being mean and giving a trick question!  It's also correct that Suzaku was a character in YYH. I picked the name though since it means phoenix and I thought it was suiting for our white heroine (No, not the drug. The wolf. -_-)  

PLEASE REVIEW!!!

Chapter 32

"Days? He could be stuck like that for days?" Kat asked.

Suzaku nodded

Kat sighed and calmed herself down, "Well, is there anyway we can move him back to the hut?"

If Inuyasha wants to carry him. Suzaku said.

"Keh, yah right," Inuyasha said.

Kat smiled sweetly and got in his face, "Would you do it for me?"

Inuyasha was taken aback then smiled back, "Feh."

Kat brushed the rest of the leaves off her butt and hopped onto Kageunsei, "Tanya, you can ride Suzaku back."

Tanya nodded and hopped onto the white wolf's back.

They took off at top speed through the forest kicking up dead leaves.

^_^

Seven hours had passed and Kenshin was still frozen in place.

Inuyasha had carried Kenshin back but had not carried the poor man inside.

It had gotten cold out and Kat had begun to fear for Kenshin's health.

She had found one of her old jackets in a closet and decided that Kenshin might want it.

She walked down the porch steps and shivered.

It was an unusually cold night and she could see her breath.

Her sandals clicked against the ground with each step.

She rounded a corner and spotted Kenshin.

His sword was clasped firmly in his hands and it glinted in the moonlight.

He had not been able to move an inch since he had attacked Sesshomaru and Kat could tell that he was frustrated.

His eyes followed her as she walked over.

They glowed in the night and were narrowed to angry slits.

Kat untied the jacket from her waist and draped it around his shoulders, "This should keep you warm. I know you don't want to wear it but it will keep you from freezing."

His eyes softened a bit.

"Kenshin, how did the Battousai form within you? How could you be so pure but so tainted? Why do you loose your temper so easily? You remind me of Tanya," Kat said.

His hair rippled as the wind stirred it.

It was a one long wave of the fires of hell.

So rich and vibrant that they were held high in a pony tail which was long and full stop.

The only flaw upon his face was the scar, which stuck out like a soar thumb.

Shadows concealed most of his face in a murky layer.

Kat gazed into his amber orbs, searching for an answer to her questions but knowing that there was not going to be one.

His amber eyes stared right back at her and for a moment, he seemed to be lost.

Kat could find no trace of emotion except anger.

"Hitokiri," her voice seemed to startle him, "Do you love me as your other side does?"

He seemed to be caught off guard and that was exactly what Kat wanted.

She searched his eyes frantically to find an answer before he slipped his mask back on.

She stopped searching when she came across a tiny trace of emotion.

It was nothing more than the surprised glint in his eye but she knew that it was there.

The only thing that annoyed Kat was that she couldn't tell what emotion she had seen.

'So, the Battousai does have emotions.'

^_^

Kat sighed and flicked her gaze to the stars.

She could spot Orion's Belt and the Little Dipper.

The Hitokiri watched her as she gazed at the stars.

He was a bit confused at why she had asked all those questions and still pissed that he couldn't move.

Kat decided that it would be another sleepless night so she decided she would grab her sleeping bag.

She made to go when there was a soft rustling.

She turned around and was surprised to see the Hitokiri moving his sword back into his sheath.

There was a crack as he moved his feet and the jacket Kat had put on him fell off.

She stood there watching him as he flexed his muscles.

His gaze met hers and they both froze a moment.

Kat broke the gaze and wandered back inside.

She could hear him following her.

Kat made to the hall closet and began to rummage the miscellaneous items stored in there.

"What are you looking for?" his horse voice asked.

"Sleeping bags so I can sleep outside tonight," she replied.

A thick bag appeared to her right and startled her, "Thanks…"

She stood up, grabbed the bag, and headed back outside.

The Hitokiri followed her.

Kat laid the bag down on one side of the porch and frowned when the Battousai passed her he went around the side of the building and came back with her jacket.

He climbed the five stairs of the porch and sat down next to her.

He placed the jacket over Kat's shoulders.

Kat's eyes widened at his small action of affection.

They sat on the porch awkwardly for a few moments before Kat asked, "Why do you have no emotions?"

He glared at her, "It's not that I don't have any emotions, it's that I don't show any."

Kat was puzzled, "Why don't you show any?"

He sighed slightly, "If I did, it would make me more vulnerable. My enemies would have the advantage."

"How so?"

"Say for instance, someone was taken hostage. If I cared about people then my enemies would have the advantage and kill me off instantly," he explained.

Kat scoffed, "Don't you see? If you refuse to fight people than they will loose interest in fighting you."

He smirked, "It's not that easy. My other side insists on saving people and not killing anyone. He's so weak."

Kat glared back, "Weak no, caring yes. If you don't like him then why not get rid of him?"

"I've tried that before…but it…it's the memory of Tomoe…that keeps him alive and us from destroying each other."

Kat's frown deepened, "I thought you had put Tomoe behind you."

"I did but it was her that spurred my other half to be born and it her memory that keeps him alive."

"Oh…" There was a long pause before, "Was she that special?"

The Hitokiri hung his head, "Yes… she had to have been to get me to love her. I mean, who could have loved me when I was a heartless manslayer?"

There was another pause before, "I could have."

(A/N: I'm gonna post the next two now! Come on people, if you can tell me exactly what SSDD stands for I'll post another two! PLEASE REVIEW!!!)
