Forgotten Memories
Chapter 9: The Plan
Shadw: Do the disclaimers please Soujiro. Soujiro: Shadw doesn't own RK. She does own Rei, Tye, Tenka, and the story idea. Shadw: Yeah, please Read and Review!
Everyone was silent. " You have a wife," Sanosuke managed to say. Then they
heard a soft laugh. " I remember when he told Himura and I that," Misao
said softly. "We acted just like you two," Kenshin said trying not to
laugh.
It really was funny, Sanosuke and Yahiko speechless was a sight to see. " A bunch of morons," Saitou mumbled. Sano just stared at a Saitou. About an hour later almost everyone was asleep. Kenshin and Saitou were still up.
Kenshin was up in a tree; he could relax better in a tree then on the ground. " If I didn't know better I'd say your turning into the Battousai," Saitou said. Kenshin was quiet. " Your eyes, they turned amber in battle today and now sleeping in trees again are we?" he continued. " Shut up,"
Kenshin said in cold voice.
" I'm going to bed and you should to if you want to get back you raccoon," he finished. It was sort of true though; his anger was starting to get the better of him. He wasn't sure if he could maintain his present state. This
was all because that man took Kaoru from him. He loved her dearly, more
than anything in the world.
He would die for her in an instant. It would appear that he was the only
one single around his friends. Yahiko had Tsubame, Sanosuke had Megumi, Saitou had his wife and it looked like Misao and Aoshi was together. They
were lying up against a tree trunk. Misao's head was on Aoshi's chest.
He had his arms around her in a protective manner. It was a cute sight to see actually, that's how Kaoru would put it. Kenshin looked to the sky. It
helped calm him down. The stars reminded him of Kaoru's eyes for some
reason.
They didn't look like her eyes but they reminded him of them. Tonight he
wasn't going to get any sleep. " Kaoru, I miss you so much," Kenshin thought. " The sky is almost as beautiful as you." He shifted his body to
try and get comfortable.
" I should at least try and get some sleep." His last thoughts before he
shut his eyes were of Kaoru and how beautiful and pretty she always smelled. " I think I'll tell her I love her when we get her back," he told himself. The next morning Kaoru woke up pretty late. She got up, her body
still hurt a little but it was bearable.
She walked to Tenka's study. " Kaoru, it's nice to see you up, Rei and I were worried," Tenka said in a sincere manner. " Thank you for taking such
good care of me," Kaoru said. " May I ask you something?" Tenka got a
little nervous at her question, " Yes of course."
" What were those visions I had?" she asked. " Kaoru what would make you think I know," he said smoothly. " Your aura was all over it, you connected
to it," she said steadily. " Please Tenka, I have to know. Tell me."
Tenka had to think fast. " They are the imposters I told you about," he
said. " They are the imposters, does that mean my friends are," she couldn't say the last word. Tenka nodded. " They took your friend's looks
so they could trick you," he said.
He was calm again. He finally managed to get things under control. Time passed as Kenshin and the gang walked. It was about 5:00pm when they sat
down for a rest. " I'll go scout ahead," Misao said running forward.
She ran about 30ft up. After about 30 minutes she came back with a huge
smile on her face. " Why are you smiling weasel?" Saitou asked suspiciously. " If your mean I won't tell," she said in a teasing manner. "
Misao?" Aoshi questioned.
" The mansion, it up about 30ft or so!" she yelled happily. " Really?" Yahiko asked. Misao nodded, " Yeah, it's really big too." Kenshin smiled.
After about a 10-minute break, they all started to follow Misao.
" See, I told you guys," she said. Sano whistled. " Looks more like a
castle to me," Sano said. " We got here earlier than expected," Kenshin
said. " We should be very careful," Aoshi said walking over to Misao.
" They did that, just to get to me?" Kaoru asked Tenka. Tenka nodded, " Yes, or at least that's what I know." " How dare they do that! What scum!
Wait till I get my hands on them!" she yelled. She was crying, not only tears of sadness but also of fear, anguish and anger. Tenka looked outside,
it looked like it was going to rain.
" That's very strange," Kenshin said jumping out of a tree. " What's up
Kenshin?" Sano asked. " No guards," Kenshin said. " Isn't that a good
thing?" Sano questioned. " Yeah, won't this make it easier to rescue
Kaoru?" Yahiko asked.
" I doubt he's that stupid," Aoshi said. " This must mean one: he knows we won't get passed the gate, two: there's a trap," Misao said. " Or three: he want's us to go in, but that's related to the trap theory," Aoshi finished.
" Number three," Kenshin said. Everyone looked at him.
" How would you know?" Saitou asked. " Well, Kaoru isn't dead, as far as we know," it hurt to say that last part. " He's using her as bait, he want's
us to try and save her. He probably want's revenge for his brother's
death." Kenshin reached for the hilt of his reverse blade.
" So what do we do?" Yahiko asked. " I'll go in first," Kenshin announced.
" If it's safe, I'll wave for you guys to follow me." " No way Kenshin, it's not safe. We should go in together. There's safety in numbers," Yahiko
yelled.
He didn't want Kenshin to get hurt. He still felt guilty about what happened. " Yahiko does have a point Kenshin," Sano said. He didn't want
Kenshin to go in alone ether. He also still felt guilty about Kaoru's
kidnapping.
Plus if Kenshin was knocked out, their chances of rescuing Kaoru were slim. " No, if we all go in and get killed then who will rescue Kaoru? I say we go with Himura's plan," Misao said calmly. " So that's the plan, all right Kaoru," Tenka said smiling. " Remember you don't have to go along with it
if you don't want to."
" No, that's ok, I'll go with the plan," she said calmly. Tenka stepped out on to balcony. A wide smile crossed his lips when he saw his victims come into range. " There here," Tenka said looking towards Kaoru. " Here, now!"
she yelled.
" Calm down, Kaoru," Tenka said. He walked over to her and placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. The he yelled for his butler. His butler
came in. " what do you need master Tenka?" he asked.
" Keep Rei inside, it's getting colder and it looks like it's going to rain," Tenka said smoothly. When the butler left, Tenka went over his plan with Kaoru again. " I say Misao and I stay her," Aoshi said grabbing her
hand. Sano gave Aoshi a sly look. " Why?" he asked.
" Incase someone tries to attack you from behind," Misao said walking towards Aoshi. " First smart thing I've heard in days," Saitou said taking out his last cigarette. " I know, were idiots," Sano said trying to mock Saitou. Yahiko let out a soft chuckle. " You've said that about a million
times," Yahiko added.
Saitou gave them a look that said " mock me again and I'll kill you." Kenshin sighed and walked up a few feet while the others hid in the bush.
After about a minute or two he waved in Sano, Saitou and Yahiko. "
Becareful guys," Yahiko said standing. " We will, just worry about
yourself," Misao said.
" I know what to do Tenka don't worry so much," Kaoru sighed. He knew the
Battousai's feelings for the girl were strong. He was going to kill the
Battousai painfully slowly. What a better way then emotionally first.
