Aoshi came up to Kenshin and stared at him in the eyes. Kenshin could see his own reflection from this man's pure black eyes. People say that eyes are the only body part that could make others to understand someone's mind when he's not talking, but Aoshi's eyes are so deep like an ocean. Kenshin still couldn't figure out what he was thinking about. Aoshi smiled, slowly the smile turned into a huge laugh. Aoshi's face was all twisted like an old rag.

Kenshin lift Aoshi's hand up the air and yelled out: " this is the real warrior, I can't compete with him. He has beaten me and deserves to be called the greatest warrior. Aoshi was like a stone; he was just standing there and seems that he was still in the memories of the past. He hadn't realized what was happening. People cheered in happiness, the long fight had finally ended. Aoshi had work all the way to this and proved to people that he is the greatest.

Aoshi couldn't get down no matter how hard he tried; he was just way too exhausted. He turned his head back to the direction of the arena, saw Kenshin waved at him and walked away lonely and eventually disappeared into the darkness.
