The End of the Beginning
Author: Emilee1
Chapter 13: Strange Girl
Sano and Yahiko had been telling Kenji what had happened and that Kenshin was already on his way to Kyoto. Kenji was quite sad but Kenshin was in a bit of a mess.
Kenshin walked through the woods for there were no paths to travel. He sighed and looked up at the sky.
He started to run as fast as he could. He had to start walking after a while because he became weary.
He saw a little girl standing in front of him a little distance away. "Hello?"Kenshin asked walking closer.
She looked at him with a sad expression. She was completely white. Her hair, dress, and skin. Just everything about her was cold.
"Do you need any help?"Kenshin continued to ask her but she did not reply.
Finally she said, "Kenshin, help me. Please."
He stopped and stared at her. She turned away and ran away from him into the distant forest.
Kenshin followed but could barely keep up. She ran over a river which Kenshin didn't notice. He tripped over a rock and fell into it.
He struggle to reach the top, but the current was too strong.
He tried and tried, but all was useless. Everything became blury. Is this the end for me?Kenshin thought closing his eyes.
*FLASHBACK*
"I just want you to live."
*END FLASHBACK*
Kenshin immidiately shot open his eyes and jumped into the air. He breathed heavily while running towards Kyoto even further.
While running he came across the girl once more. "Who are you? Tell me, how do you know my name?"Kenshin asked.
"I am Kaoru when she was a child. That is how I know you. I am part of her that is already dead thanks to that star. It said that she will become weaker and weaker and eventually die. I am what is dead of her and soon there will be another spirit destroyed."
