Battle For Love
Chapter 1: Runaway Bride
Finally, the await was nearing to an end. Today was the day that the six of them had been waiting and wishing for. After tonight... they finally belong to each other. To the one they love.
Kaoru exited from the dressing room and adjusted the top part of her shining white dress. Next she twirled in front of the mirror and posted like a model in front of it. She earned a catcall from Misao.
"Kaoru! Kirei!" Misao yelled through the room as she shifted from her sitting position.
"Itachi! Stop moving! Your make up will smerge!" Kaoru just smiled at Misao and wink. Kaoru looked at herself at the mirror. She looked elegant. The strapless white gown hung on her body perfectly. Her gloves emphasized on her slim hands. Her gown touched the ground that covered her legs. Half of her hair was being tied into plaits and went around her head. Making it sort of a crown. The rest was being allowed to flow freely. Kaoru put up only light make up. She remembered what Kenshin said about her being a natural beauty. Kaoru smiled. She looked just like Cinderella. She was ready to get married to the one she loved most. Himura Kenshin.
Suddenly, the oak door was being slowly pushed open. In came a lithe figure girl. Age not more than 14. Kaoru took no less than one second to recognize who it was.
"Tsubame! When did you come? Why didn't you tell me?" Kaoru got anxious around Tsubame as she hug her little stepsister. Tsubame hugged back tightly too. After a few words of exchanged concern. Tsubame pulled back to look at the other two assassins.
"Misao san, Megumi san... Katsura san wanted to see you before the wedding." Tsubame noticed them politely.
"What! At this MOMENT! Katsura sama has some nerves!" Misao grumbled as Megumi pulled a fuming weasel out of the room. Tsubame and Kaoru giggled at the sight. Tsubame looked back at Kaoru who was standing up already.
"How did you know about this?" Kaoru asked as she beckoned her sister to sit beside her. Tsubame agreed and plop on to the armchair.
"Katsura san told me about the wedding. I managed to come after tou chan and kaa chan's funeral." Kaoru inwardly winced at the word funeral. She had hidden the fact that she was an assassin to Tsubame. She won't want to ruin her image of her in Tsubame's heart. She knew that her little sister loved her. And Kaoru loved her no less. She can only stay happy, hidden by the truth. It was selfish... but this was the only way. Kaoru had no choice.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't attend it. Gomen." Tsubame shook her head and hugged Kaoru.
"If it weren't for you. I might have given up living. At least, I still have a sister!" Tsubame smiled brightly.
"I missed you." Kaoru replied. Tsubame just hugged her tighter.
'Gomen... gomen ne.. Tsubame....' Kaoru thought as she closed her eyes.
"That BUSU is your sister?" A shocking voice came. Kaoru jerked herself up and went in front of Tsubame instinctively. She glared at the young boy in front of her.
"Yahiko kun!"
"Yahiko?" Kaoru asked looking at her sister and then back at Yahiko. She kept her cool.
"If I were you... I would watch my words... Yahiko chan."
"Don't call me 'chan' BUSU!" Kaoru's fierce glare softened. She laughed.
"Kaoru nee?" "Busu?"
The both of them called out to Kaoru. Both of them looking at each other. Thinking that maybe Kaoru had gone crazy.
Well... it wasn't everyday, someone would come right in front of you and yelled at you 'busu' straight in your face if you were a Hitokiri.
"Gomen... gomen... I was carried away. So how's everything in Chiba, Tsubame?" Kaoru asked her sister. They were laughing and talking. Yahiko who wasn't in the conversation walked around the room looking at everything lazily. He stopped in front of the wall as his eyes widen. There was something funny about it. The wall... doesn't seem to fit. Yahiko's hand reached out towards it. Kaoru caught him just in time at the wrist.
"I wouldn't do that, if I were you." Kaoru said in a low tone. Both warning and threatening.
"Che! It's just stupid door." Yahiko yanked his wrist out of Kaoru's grasp. He was amazed at her strength. He took another look at the door.
'There must be something behind it. There MUST BE!' Yahiko thought as he walked to the big window and admired the night scenery.
Out of nowhere, a gunshot was heard, as the glass shattered at the impact. Yahiko would have been dead by now, if Kaoru didn't save him.
'Damn! She's fast!' Yahiko thought as Kaoru pushed him to Tsubame.
"GET OUT NOW!" Kaoru commanded. Yahiko instantly gave in as he pulled the panic stricken Tsubame out of the room.
"Yahiko! We got to go back! Nee chan is still there!" Tsubame protested as they reached the stairs.
"Tsubame! Tell Ka.... Ka... ARGH! Whatever his name is about this! I'm going to help busu!" Yahiko said as he ran back. He heard the anguish cry of Tsubame as he returned to the room. His eyes widen at the sight as he fell back.
~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~
Kaoru slowly made her way to the 'wall' that Yahiko was once suspicious with. She eyed her surrounding not keeping her guard down even for a second. She gave the wall a light push, it turned to revealed all their weapons. Needles, pistols, kunais, snipers, rifles, daggers and her twin kodachis. She chose her partner and close the door back. Her back to the wall, she scanned the area.
As if on cue, hooded figures jumped down from the ceiling. There were over a dozen of them. Her glare hardened. This was it again. To kill or be killed. She couldn't die... finally she has made it so far. Why can't they just bother someone else and leave them alone?
'It wasn't suppose to be like this!' She unsheathed her kodachis and step out of her heels. She parted her legs and crouch downed making her balance infallible. The wind rose around the room and died down. So suddenly Kaoru eyes widen and launched at them. The cloaked figures looked around as they could see the impacts on the floor but they knew nothing of which direction she was coming. They resort to the last approached they started firing everywhere.
One by one, they drop to meet their deaths. All of them had no time for them to shout and scream as the kodachis took their life away in a straight instant. They knew nothing of pain. At last Kaoru stopped and stood up straight. She glared those dead men behind her from her shoulders.
'It wasn't suppose to be LIKE THIS!' Her mind screamed again. Her once white shimmering gown was now bathed in blood, the metallic smell of it lingered in the air. The blood on hers does not belong to her but to the men who laid there lifelessly. The blood smeared her makeup. She glanced up at the mirror. There, she saw death. She winced at the sight. Her alert was still high. She had her head hung low listening and feeling intently, to the changes of aura and sound. Her head snapped up to the main door. Her aim was to kill everyone at the moment. They had ruined her best moment of life. She was not going to let anyone of them go. NONE should be allowed free. She banged open the door to find...
"Ya... hiko..."
"Bu... su..." Yahiko recalled the scene where he saw Kaoru killed each and everyone of them mercilessly. Although it was cruel and brutal to no end... he had to admit one thing. Kaoru was strong. The men didn't even have the time to scream. And she was like the wind. She came from every direction. The next thing he knew was a shiny sharp metal blade being pressed on his throat and Kaoru's menacing glare penetrating a hole in his head. Abruptly, he saw Kaoru's eyes shifted from him to the back of her shoulders. Something hit her. She shut one of her eyes and instantly, took one of her kodachis and flew it through the intruder's chest. She fell onto the ground. Panting hard. Her still gloved hand went up to left waist. She plucked out the kunai that was sticking out of her. Yahiko noticed that the blue eyes that Kaoru has... instantly changed to black. In it, there was revenge, insanity and wildness. How could someone change so fast?
She gritted her teeth as she managed to seat up and glared at the kunai. She slide her finger over the surface of it and cursed under her breath when she found out it was coated with poison. It was taking effect fast... as she could hardly feel her legs anymore. A note was attached to the kunai. Without hestitation, she tore the note of the kunai and scanned through it fast. Her eyes watered...
~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~
"Oh man! I can't wait to see the girls I tell ya!" Sanosuke who was acting like a kid the past few hours exclaimed in excitement for the millionth time already. Aoshi was getting sick of it.
"Would you just shut up and let me gel your hair?" Aoshi grumbled as he pulled Sanosuke's hair into a stand. The common bickering started between the two. Hiko got into the middle of it and joined in telling each of them off.
"Hey! It was him who started it first!" Sanosuke complained. Kenshin was the only quiet one. He wanted everything to be perfect. For Kaoru. He had thought. He smiled sexily into the mirror as he eyed his appreance.
High ponytail check... Kaoru said that he was sexy with a high ponytail, he intent to keep it that way till he dies. He wouldn't want Kaoru to lose interest in him now did he...
Black suit check... He unbuttoned the two first buttons and had his tie hanging loosely around the collar. He winced at the sight he saw in the long mirror. He looked like some punk ready to make battle. He shook his head and buttoned back the top two buttons and tightened his tie. He smiled charmingly.
'That is more like it...' Kenshin thought. He make a last check... the rings. He wouldn't want to lose the rings right at in front of the priest... It wouldn't be a pleasant sight for Kaoru.
He opened the box he held for hours. There the two beautiful carved rings were. One of it had an amethyst gem and golden ring. While another one held bright blue sapphire tightened with a golden ring too. Inside the ring, their own signs were engraved 'KK forever... Aishiteru Kenshin' for Kaoru's and 'KK forever... Aishiteru Kaoru' for Kenshin's respectively. He smiled again.
I love you till the end of time... no it would be a total understatement.... It will be even longer than that.
Suddenly, Kenshin was brought back into reality with the loud sound of shattering glasses. After getting up, a realization dawned on Kenshin. He picked up his katana and made his way to the girls' room, which was twice the level, and at the other corner. He just hoped he got there in time. When he took the corner he collide with Tsubame who was crying. She grabbed onto him, eyes begging.
"Help... Nee chan... help Yahiko.... onegai..." Without another word Kenshin pushed Tsubame to Aoshi and Sanosuke as he fled to the room where Kaoru was. He ran as fast as his legs could carry him. He brought himself forward to increase speed. Seeing the room insight he sprinted full force to find a small spiky head boy kneeling there trembling no less. Kenshin looked around frantically. Kaoru was nowhere to be found. Then in the room, he saw that blood literally rained through everything. The carpets, dressing table, everything. In the middle he saw those white heels, the bottom half of the wedding dress and two white gloves. Words chocked in his throat.
'It couldn't be Kaoru's...'
He grabbed the boy and glared at him.
"Where's Kaoru!" Kenshin demanded. The fear inside him stirred greatly. The thought of losing her again was driving him to the edge. Yahiko doubled the shivers when he saw Kenshin. No words came out of his opened trembling lips.
So all he did was to point at the shattered window....
