:: Here you go the next chapter and I don't own any Kenshin people, just mine, but not Kyoto.

~*~*~*~*~*~

4. We meet at last.

That night Kikia went out once again, but this time it wasn't to rob, but because she needed some time to think.

A light breeze blew through the trees of the cemetery and sent a cold chill down Kikia's spin.

This was the time of night she loved, but she didn't know why, she just did.

Kikia stepped onto an empty alley and looked up at the moon. It was so beautiful to her; she never wanted to look away.

That thought only lasted a minute for she had ran into something and she fell to the ground with a hard thud.

~*~*~*~

Kenshin snuck out of the inn he and his friends were staying at. He didn't want Kaoru to ask were he was going at this time of night.

The truth be told, he wasn't really sure where he was going. He just felt like taking a mid-night stool through Kyoto.

Thought of his younger years flooded through his head. Everywhere he looked a new memoir appeared, some were good and the rest.........

Kenshin's train of thought was broken as he bumped into something or more like it was someone.

~*~*~*~*~

Kikia looked up and realized that she ran into a guy with really long red hair.

"Hu sorry." He replied.

"No it's my fault, I wasn't watching where I was going." Kikia added.

At that second Kikia looked at his waist and noticed his Katana.

"Oh I thought no one was aloud to carry a Katana, unless you're a police officer?"

Kenshin looked down at her as he handed out his hand to help her up.

"Um, just for get about it." Kenshin replied as she got to her feet. "Anyway...." Kenshin grabbed the hilt and unsheathed it just enough to show the blade.

"Oh.....my.... I never seen a Sakabato before? Who makes a reverse blade?"

"An old friend made it." Kenshin answered.

"Oh that's cool, oh the names Kikia, Kikia Kenji."

"Nice to meet you, I'm Kenshin Himura."

"Himura?"

Kikia looked at him with wonder.

"Does the name Shinta ring a bell?"

Kenshin jerked back in shock. He hadn't heard that name in a long time. To him, he thought he was the only other one whom knew that name.

"Never mind, stupid questioned. Of course you wouldn't of, Sorry I'll be going now." Kikia finished and before Kenshin could reply, Kikia disappeared back into the shadows.

Kenshin watched as Kikia disappeared into the shadows. He couldn't figure out how a
complete stranger could have known that name. It was possible. He and his sensei was the only two people to know that name. Everyone else was dead.....or.......unless?

"Is she my....." Kenshin shook his head.

She couldn't be?

Out of all the people in Kyoto, he couldn't have run into her this early.

He wasn't' even in the city for 24 hours and already running into a girl that knew....

"There you are Kenshin."

Kenshin train of thought was once again broken as he swirled around and watched Sanosuke stop next to him.

"What are you doing out at this hour Sano?" Kenshin questioned.

"I was about to ask you the same thing." Sanosuke answered.

"I just wanted to get some fresh air." Kenshin replied. "I'll see you back at the inn." Kenshin finished and disappeared into the shadows.

Sanosuke watched him leave, before he looked down at the gravestone.

"I wonder who this is?" Sanosuke questioned, but didn't think twice. He left the graveyard and followed after Kenshin.

Sanosuke turned the corner and Kikia dropped down from the tree she was hiding in.

She walked over to the gravestone and read the name.

TOMOE YUKISHIRO-HIMURA

"Who's Tomoe?" Kikia asked herself as she read the name over and over again, trying to figure out why that name sounds so familiar? "Wait, she's..." Kikia's eyes widened as she realized who Tomoe was and who Kenshin is.

"Great." Kikia whispered and jumped into the roof tops to follow Kenshin and Sanosuke.

:: Don't ask me what Kikia found out, because the truth be told. I don't know. It just popped in my head and out on the computer. So while I try to figure out what is going on. R&R JM::
