Chapter 4: Shishio vs. Kenshin
*Tomorrow is the day that Shishio and I will fight. I am ready for him. I can't and won't let him win.* Kenshin thought as he stared at his reverse-blade sword. Kaoru nervously approached him.
"Are you still going tomorrow, Kenshin?"
"Yes, I have to go. Shishio is wanting to rule over Japan, and I can't let him do that," Kenshin said.
Kaoru lowered her head. "I guess you are right," she replied softly. "Please be careful Kenshin."
The next day Kenshin walked to the cliff and waited for Shishio. He arrived.
"Battousai, I see you have not changed. Since you insist on staying a peaceful wanderer, then I shall defeat you here and now."
Shishio charged at Kenshin. Kenshin drew his sword and blocked with Battou- Jutsu, but Shishio turned and tripped him. Kenshin was standing on the edge of the cliff next to the water.
Kaoru, Kenji, Sano, and Yahiko were hid below the cliff behind some very tall rocks. They watched as Shishio charged at Kenshin again knocking him off the cliff into the water.
Kaoru sat there in shock as Kenji ran up the slope leading to Shishio. Kenji was enraged and attacked him. He hit Kenji into a tree, knocking him out. Sano and Yahiko saw Kenshin coming out of the water. He made his way back up the cliff. Kaoru was relieved to see Kenshin again.
Upon seeing little Kenji lying on the side, Kenshin's eyes turned amber. He turned to Shishio and in a cold voice said, "You will pay with your life for hurting my son."
Kaoru gasped upon seeing Kenshin's eyes. *He has turned into Battousai the manslayer.*.
Shishio and Kenshin began fighting again. Their fight continued for a long time until Kenshin's sword was broken. Kenshin charged at Shishio and hit him in the head with his elbow. Just before Shishio fell off the cliff, he stabbed Kenshin in the stomach.
Shishio fell off onto some jagged rocks. *He is dead for sure.* Kenshin thought as he fell to the ground.
