AUTHOR'S NOTE: Oh goodie! I got a few reviews already, so I'm taking their
advice. I've heard that the story's going a bit fast. so I'll try to slow
it down. Not sure if I can though. -_-" I'll see what I can do. This is my
first fanfic in case you didn't know! ^^' Thanks for the kind words!!!
Oh and also. I forgot to add a Disclaimer. o.0
DISCLAIMER: None of the Rurouni Kenshin characters are mine. -_-'' **********************************************************************
Kenshin was tired, but he couldn't fall asleep again. He didn't want to remember all those memories. They scared him, but when he looked at Kaoru's worried face, he almost forgot everything.
"Kenshin? Let me get you a wet towel, you look sick. Wait here." She quickly stood up and rushed out of the room. He longed for her to come back. The memories would flood in again.
[START OF A FLASHBACK]:
Blood was everywhere. people lay slain on the ground. There was a red- haired man standing in the middle of it all. He had thin yellow eyes. His sword looked bloody. It seemed as if nothing could stop this man. He was the Battosai.
[END OF FLASHBACK]
Kenshin felt the towel on his forehead. It was cold and damp on his hand as he felt it. He slowly got out of his bed while holding onto the towel. Kenshin didn't want to be useless and make Kaoru worry and do all the work at the same time. He put the towel on a table in the room.
He, Kenshin, stumbled out of the room. The sun half blinded him. Kenshin hadn't seen the light in quite a few days. Then he saw Kaoru washing the, what was it called again? Oh yes, laundry, with the heat beating on her back.
"Let me help you Kaoru! I can do this, like in the old times!" Immediately Kenshin saw he said something wrong as Kaoru's eyes suddenly watered up.
"T-the old times." She forced a smile. "Yes. I remember, Yahiko, Sanosuke, Megumi, all those wonderful people. It was perfect wasn't it Kenshin?" Kaoru stood up and dusted off her kimono.
"I-I'll start with the laundry now."
******************************************************************** Kenshin tugged at the blankets. It seemed cold, much colder than before. He slowly drifted to sleep.
"Ken-shin. I was waiting for you. What happened last time? I suddenly lost you. I'm sorry if I scared you." A guilty voice whispered. Kenshin wasn't mad, just a little more frightened than before.
"I-its okay, Tomoe," Kenshin looked up at his Angel's surprised face. "Yes, I know who you are now. Not my angel. Why did you help me? I did a horrible thing to you." He was more confused than before.
"It's because I already punished you." Tomoe pointed to Kenshin's cross shaped scar. He lifted his and ran it across his cheek. Yes, there was that scar.
"Is that it? That was nothing compared to what I did to you!" He cried out. "Why do you leave me with all this guilt?" Kenshin felt a tear fall down and land on his hand that was outstretched, reaching for Tomoe.
"I feel that you have learned enough to restore your memory. Be happy Kenshin!" And with that, she was gone.
***********************************************************************
P.S. It's me again! I found another mistake in my story. -_- Sadly. Okay, I sort of rushed and made Kenshin remember a lot. but I did that to mostly make it shorter. Also, to cover, you could say that Tomoe or Kaoru taught him a lot. ^^' Take your pick! ( Thanks! I can't wait for more Reviews.
