Disclaimer: Pray as I might, I will never own Rurouni Kenshin. It just wont
happen that way.
I got, all three of the RK movies on DVD AND VHS! MWHAHAHAHA! After the wedding in this chapter, I'm just gonna have Kaoru give birth to Kenji because this story is getting rather tiring, that it is.

"Kaoru, where in the devil have you been?" Misao asked abnormally loud, placing her hands on her tiny hips. The bridesmaids had been pacing around for the past 15 minutes, waiting for the return of the bride.
"I was just . . ." she began, glancing from one face to the other, desperately trying to cook up a lie," just trying to . . . decide on who would be my maid of honor!" The girls glanced around at each then turned at Megumi instantly.
She looked back with a blank expression. "What?"
Slapping her forehead, Kaoru replied, " The maid of honor is you, Megumi!"
Trying to be cool, Megumi quickly popped up fox ears and began to laugh at the other bridesmaid's insanely. No, really, insanely. "Oh hohohoho! I bet none of you had ever been then important in the wedding! My, the wedding just couldn't go on without me. Oh ohohohohoho!"
Tokio wanted ever so badly to tell Megumi that she was a bride at one time, which is more important than any maid of honor. She really wanted to tell her that a wedding didn't need a maid of honor to continue onward. That would give her a run for her money alright. Unfortunately, Kaoru shook her head no as to not burst Megumi's outrageously huge bubble today so she wouldn't go around in an angry mood at not being that important.
"Tsubame-chan, take your place! It's about to start!" called Misao. Quickly, and rather nervously, Tsubame picked up her basket of flowers and got in front of Kaoru.

"It's about time you arrived Battousai," Aoshi said, glaring at him. Kenshin pouted and turned away, wondering why in blue blazes Aoshi always seemed to be glaring at him for some reason or another. He knew he would never know why he looked that way. Maybe it was just his natural look and Kenshin was imagining things.
"Since you've came back, I've assumed you found my Jou-chan, huh Kenshin?" Sano put in, putting Kenshin in a friendly headlock.
"Yes I have Sanosuke," replied Kenshin, a child like smile on his misbegotten face. All of a sudden Kenshin's face went a violent blue as the headlock turned deadly.
"You listen here you unworthy red head!" Sano started, choking Kenshin even more, " You hurt Jou-chan anyway, shape or form, its gonna be just you and me buddy!"
"Sano, I would never dream of hurting my beloved one!" Kenshin said, desperately trying to pull out of Sano's headlock so he could breathe fresh air once more.
"You had better not! Or you'll be answering to Zanza!" he shot back, his former name coming out. Kenshin knew Sanosuke meant business whenever he used his ex-gangsta name. Rarely has he ever heard Sano use it but once or twice, maybe in a fight somewhere in the Ruffion Row. Kenshin remembered that the outcomes of the fight weren't to pretty.
"Take your place, bird," Saito said with his usually annoyance toward Sano. He immediately went red with anger but when he realized that the music had started playing, he stopped acting foolish and resumed his earlier position.
Kenshin just stood at the alter, his violet eyes narrowed at the door. Not narrowed with anger, but with anticipation, anticipation that his new wife would be waltzing through those doors any moment. It seemed like an eternity before they even shuttered with movement. Looking back desperately at Sano, he pleaded with violet eyes, pleaded that if anything did go wrong with their relationship, knock him out because he had let such a fine young lady squeeze through his rough skin. Sano winked at Kenshin, telling him with action that he wouldn't knock him out. He'd kill him. Kenshin shook his head no but Sano just nodded slowly with a yes. Rolling his eyes, smile creeping upon his face, Kenshin turned back to face the doors.
The doors had just fully opened and a numb Tsubame stood there stiffly. They looked at her for a total of about ten seconds until a hand recognizable as Megumi's snatched her back. They heard mumbles and then saw the poor child shuffled back to her place. She still just stood there. The doors closed once more, leaving a very perplexed crowd.
-
"Tsubame! What in Kami-sama's name are you doing?!" Megumi shouted quietly, trying to control her OUT of control temper.
Tsubame smiled proudly and looked up at the rest of the females, whom also wanted to know the reasoning as to why she hadn't moved, even after Megumi had told her what to do. "You told me after I was done to stand behind the bridesmaid's."
"So? What's that got to do with it?" Misao asked, quite irked as well. Tsubame shook her head.
"How am I supposed to do that when there are no bridesmaid TO stand behind?" They looked at each other for a moment and their eyes went wide.
"Oh yeah . . ." Tokio said, rubbing her nape. Kaoru could not help but laugh at the fact that they all had been out smarted by calm, quiet young Tsubame.
So, they all lined up, tallest to smallest. In other words, Megumi and Tokio fought over who would be first but Megumi ended up winning bringing up that she was the maid of honor. Tokio went next, muttering unmentionable words with Misao having a fit inside her head about being short.
The doors opened, yet again, and they began to walk down the aisle, Misao tripping at first, still trying to get used the womanly shoes she was not used to wearing. The continued to walk until they walked up the stairs to the alter and stopped, lined up just as the men were. This left little Tsubame alone by herself, panicking still that she would mess up. (A/N How anyone could mess up throwing around flowers if beyond me . . .)
After doing her good deed for the day, Tsubame took her place behind Misao and waited. Kenshin was no longer bouncing, but rather giving tiny jumps. People from the crowd and especially the bridesmaids, were chuckling to themselves.
The next person to stand at the door was Dr.Gensai with Kaoru linked to his arm. Kaoru took a step forward, her kimono swishing around her long legs with grace. Kenshin stopped moving all at once and just looked at her. She looked up under her veil to see the violet eyed rurouni grin. Kaoru blushed and looked down again.
It seemed like forever until Kaoru got to the alter and the wedding actually began. When they bowed their heads for pray, Kenshin wasn't listening. He hadn't even bowed his head. His eyes were just glued on Kaoru. Sure she had looked beautiful with all that junk on but he knew she wasn't very comfortable in it. He didn't want to marry someone who would think that they would need to change just to please him. To Kenshin, Kaoru looked like more beautiful when she was just herself.
"Mr. Himura? Mr. Himura," came the preachers voice. Kenshin snapped out of his dreamy state and tuned back into reality.
"I'm sorry, what did you say?" he asked, with a muttered oro.
Quite disturbed by the fact that Kenshin wasn't paying attention to his own wedding, the preacher repeated his question, " Do you take Kamiya Kaoru to be your lofly (have no idea what that means or if it's the right word) wedded wife until death do you part?"
"Yes," Kenshin said with a smile. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Kaoru smack her head.
"What?" The bridesmaid began to giggle with the laughter of the rest of the residents. "What's so funny?"
Standing on her toes, Kaoru said, "Your supposed to say 'I do'."
"Ohhh . . . I do . . ." he muttered looking at the floor. Wiping the tears from his eyes the preacher asked Kaoru the same question and received the same answer.
"If there is anyone in here who believe that these two should not be wed, speak now or forever hold your peace," the preacher asked.
"I have a reason!" Tsunan said, suddenly standing up.
"Tsunan, sit down!" Tae whispered to him in a stern voice. "Please continue!"
"You may kiss the bride," the preacher said with a smile. Kenshin turn to look at Kaoru, cupping her face in his hands, he brought lips to meet his. Kaoru tossed the flowers in her hands behind her so she could wrap her arms around Kenshin's neck, which landed in Misao's hands, who caught it because she didn't want the flowers to be ruined. Misao looked at them then blushed, looking up at Aoshi to see his reaction. Aoshi gave a very small smile. He actually smiled! Then he frowned at Sano who kept nudging him in the side, wiggling his eyebrows.
When the kiss was broken, Kenshin and Kaoru stared into each others eyes, not daring to even breathe. Then Kenshin wrapped his arms around her, which surprised Kaoru, but she returned it. For them, it was the happiest day of their lives. Well, for now at least.
