Kaoru could only stay frozen in place as the dark blur approached. Though the rain was thick and harsh Kenshin could see the lifeless tears drip down her face.

A invincible trance seemed to make Kaoru only look forward. As Kenshin shook her worry began to sweep over him.

Her eyes where filled with sorrow and depression. "I'm sick of it..." Kenshin stared at her face with questions in his mind. "Sick of what?"

Even though Kaoru replied, her expression stayed the same. "I'm sick of being no one. I'm sick of always getting left behind. But you know what I'm sick of the most Kenshin?"

The emotions that played across her face made Kenshin jump back and release her. Everyone watched in horror as silent tears fell from Kaoru's downcast face.

Kenshin felt horrible when he stared into her lonely eyes. "I'm...." Kaoru buried her face in Kenshins chest and sobbed.

Through her sobbing Kenshin made out her words. "I'm sick of being alone." His eyes widened in shock to her words. Kenshin hugged her tightly and began to sing to her.

"So you're leaving in the morning on the early train

I could say everything's alright

And I could pretend and say goodbye

Got your ticket

Got your suitcase

Got your leaving smile

I could say that's the way it goes

And I could pretend and you won't know

That I was lying

Cause I can't stop loving you

No I can't stop loving you

No I won't stop loving you

Why should I?

We took a taxi to the station, not a word was said

And I saw you walk across the road

For maybe the last time I don't know

Feeling humble

I heard a rumble

On the railway track

And when I hear that whistle blow

I'll walk away and you won't know

That I'll be crying

Cause I can't stop loving you

No I can't stop loving you

No I won't stop loving you

Why should I?

Even try ..I'll always be here by your side

Why, why, why ..I never wanted to say goodbye

Why even try ..I'm always here if you change, change your mind

So you 're leaving in the morning on the early train

I could say everything's alright

And I could pretend and say goodbye

But that would be lying

Cause I can't stop loving you

No I can't stop loving you

No I won't stop loving you

Why should I even try?"

Kenshin knew the instant Kaoru fainted. Her wings had fanished and her weight surpressed against him. Picking her up slowly all of the group walked back to the apartment.

Little did they know that Kaoru was having not a pleasant dream, but a gruesome nightmare.

*Kaoru's Nightmare*

"Show yourself! I know you are in here Tomoe!" Kaoru held her breath listening to the footsteps nearing her hiding spot.

Faster then she could think the couch was thrown aside revealing her to a figure. "Why did you hide from me Tomoe?!" Kaoru was about to turn and run when she was roughly pinned against't the wall.

Shock took her as she saw the mans face....Kenshin!

*Real World*

"Ken-san, somethings wrong with her. She is sweating more the normal and her fever is higher." Kenshin, Aoshi, Soujiro, and Sanosuke pinned Kaoru down to the bed as she began to kick and scream out of no where.

"What's wrong with her?" Kenshin's face filled with worry as he held the panicking Kaoru down onto her bed. No one noticing his eyes turning into the deadly gold color.

*Kaoru's Nightmare*

Kenshin was now pinning Kaoru onto his bed. She tried to scream and kick, but the more effort the harder his grip got.

"Please....Someone help me!" Kenshin's stare was only filled with lust. "no one can help you Tomoe. You will never be touched by a man other then me. You belong to me."

Tears filled Kaoru's eyes and before she could scream she opened her eyes to meet the deadly golden one's.

*Dream ends, Back to Reality*

Kaoru shook with tears of fright and backed away from him. He reached his hand towards had and Kaoru began to whimper.

"Kaoru, tell me what is wrong." Shakily Kaoru stood on her feet. "No... Stay away..." Kenshin's eyes widened in shock, stay away? Never....
