Murasaki: ~*raises her hand*~

Murasaki: Yeah, she's only been able to go on once this week.
Anime_angel123: I'll try as much as possible to write some more chapters.
Murasaki: And if you don't know the disclaimer by now, you guys are slow.
Anime_angel123: On with the ficcie!!
Forgotten Past
Chapter four:
Sano, Sen and Bad Memories
It was a day after the dead body in the street was found and Ali could have sworn that both Saitou had never been so determined or Aoshi so cold. Maybe he knows that Kiara-san doesn't love him like she used to.
Ali thought as she made her way back to the station. When she arrived, she rolled her eyes as she found Chou there to greet her.
"Hello, Chou." Ali mumbled as she made her way into the building.
Ali felt like slapping Chou as she felt his gaze on her backside. "Hello there, missy." Chou said a little loud for Ali's taste.
"Did you know that women do not find it nice when all men do is stare at their ass all day?" Ali asked, sick of Chou trying to get her to like him.
"Aww, come on. It's nice, you like it and you know it." Chou gloated.
Ali rolled her eyes and set out of the station where she bumped into Katsu.
"Oh, hey Katsu-kun." Ali chimmed as she started for the river just out of town, she knew she would be able to concentrate there and meditate for a while.
"Hey, Ali. Where are you going?" Katsu asked.
Ali smiled to herself. "To the river to meditate.
"Mind if I join you?" Katsu replied.
"Not at all." Ali flashed Katsu a grin and made her way toward the river.
For the second time, Aoshi felt jealousy coarse through his veins as he walked away from the scene before his eyes.
If she didn't love me why not tell me? Aoshi asked himself as he walked along the river next to town. His eyes cast to the ground, he began to kick a rock along the dirt road.
A scream interrupted his thoughts and Aoshi glanced all around him. His gaze stopped as he neared something strange.
Ali again screamed in pain as the cloaked girl burned deeper. "Help!" She tried to yell, but she still found it impossible to speak.
Aoshi looked down from the bridge he was standing at and saw Ali, Katsu and two other people.
Aoshi didn't hesitate as he saw Ali get burned. He jumped from his spot on the bridge (anime_angel123: `*drool*`) and landed behind the girl with blood red hair.
"May I help you?" Aoshi asked, a note of irritation in his voice.
Draiku rolled her eyes and turned around to see the familiar leader of the Oniwaban. Her fear increased, as she was nowhere near as good a fighter as even Ali was and she had a lot to fear from Aoshi Shinomori.
Aoshi glared at the girl dressed in all black. He shook his head as he glanced at Ali who was on the brink of consciousness.
"Draiku, once again you've failed to hide yourself well." Aoshi's hand lied on the handle of his hidden kodachi.
Draiku sweat dropped and dashed in the other direction after she turned and saw Aoshi Shinomori in front of her.
Aoshi rolled his eyes as Draiku chose to flee. He turned to Ali's limp form and saw Katsu right next to her.
Katsu ignored the major pains in his chest and rushed to Ali's side.
"Is she alright?" Aoshi asked, a hint of concernedness in his voice.
Katsu turned to Aoshi and picked up Ali princess-style and began carrying her to the doctor Megumi, choosing to ignore Aoshi.
Aoshi struggled not to strangle the man as he followed Katsu to Megumi's clinic.
"Would you like me to carry her? You seem to be badly burned as well." Aoshi mumbled as he cast a glance at the former bomb-maker.
Katsu growled at Aoshi and tightened his grip on Ali. "No. I will not offer you a chance to once again stain your sword."
Aoshi raised an eyebrow. "What are you talking about?"
Katsu glared at Aoshi as he kept walking. "I am talking about my mother and my sister you decided to kill ten years ago." He spat bitterly, trying to bite back tears as he thought of his dead family members.
Aoshi stared at the ground as he felt a ping of memory come back to him. "I am sorry. I never intended for your sister to be killed in my fight with--"
Katsu had had enough of Aoshi's attempted apology.
"Your words to me are as welcomed as much as an icicle in the summer's heat." Katsu growled as he struggled not to cry out in agony with each step he took for his burn's pain rang throughout his whole body.
Aoshi grunted and turned to walk away, in search for Kiara as he felt he was never welcomed in Katsu's presence.
~~~****~~~~~
Sano breathed a sigh of relief and glanced over at Sen. He couldn't help but grin as he remembered the first time he'd met her in a bar in the so called bad part of town.
~~~~memory~~~
It was a usual bright, sunny day so Sano had decided to hit the bars.
It was after four jugs of sake did Sano realize he needed to be at Kenshin's for a party celebrating his marriage to Jou-chan.
Sano groaned after he checked a clock that was on the back wall of the filthy bar. It was six o clock.
"I don't have enough damn time." Sano thought out loud bitterly. "They said the thing ended at six thirty. It'll take at least forty five minutes to get there."
Sano paused in the middle of another drink, his sake glazed mind deep in thought.
"Hey, Sagara! I will beat you this time!" Sano rolled his eyes and turned to see his drinking buddy, Jakken (anime_angel123: NOT the guy from InuYasha, lol. I don't even think that's how you spell his name. Doesn't it have only one k?), waving a sake dish at him.
"Whatever, Jakken-baka. I always beat you. You get drunk before I even get glazed." Sano mumbled, taking another sip of sake.
"I improved my toleration!" Jakken explained.
Sano rolled his eyes, but agreed. "All right."
One of Jakken's friends made the rules. "First one to pass out loses."
Sano right away knew he wasn't going to like this. If the rules were till the first one that pass out, well, Jakken was a horrible drunk. He got extremely violent if he got too drunk and Sano didn't want to deal with taking him back to his house.
~*~*five minutes later*~*~*~*~
Sano was on his twelfth dish and didn't even feel a buzz while Jakken looked like he was going to gag. "Jakken, give up man. You'll get to drunk like last time." One of his friends said as they tried to persuade Jakken to stop.
But it was too late. Jakken had gotten dangerously drunk and had another one of his fits.
"Jakken, seriously. You could never hold your sake anyway." Sano bragged.
That snapped Jakken's brain.
He thrashed his way over to Sano and tried to punch him.
Jeez. Low self-esteem much? Sano thought as he dodged a punch. Sano was about to get up and make his way out of the bar, but was stopped by a kick to the stomach.
Being in a semi-glazed state, Sano wasn't thinking straight and punched Jakken back which started another brawl.
Sano had Jakken pinned and thrust his hand in a punch at Jakken, but his hand was stopped by an invisible force.
Sano turned around, ready to cuss out the stupid idiot that dare interrupt a fight and found himself face to face with an angel. Sano blinked a few times and let his eyes go back into focus. Whoa. A female police officer?! Now Sano had seen it all.
"What the hell is going on here?" Well. She had the temper of a police officer, Sano gave her that much. He girl couldn't have been much older than he was. She was wearing blue attire and had her hair tucked into the annoying blue hat that Sano always saw Saitou wear.
Sano sheepishly grinned and got off of Jakken. "You see, officer, me and friend Jakken where in the middle of a drinking contest when Jakken had too much to drink and he's not the best drunk."
The girl rolled her eyes and grabbed Sano's jacket. She growled as she dragged a bewildered Sano out of the door.
"Okay," The girl said, letting go of Sano and placing her hands on her hips. "Why were you two in a drinking contest when you know he's not a good drunk?"
Sano shrugged. "I dunno. Probably because I knew he'd keep bugging me until I did."
He thought the girl looked cute as she blew a few stray bangs out of her face. "Well, don't let it happen again, okay?" Sano nodded and watched the girl leave.
~~~end of memory~~~
Sano grinned as he remembered how many times he'd gotten into fights just to see if he could see the girl again.
I need to find Draiku. Kiara thought as she stared at the ground and remembered what she saw not too long ago. "Take heed, Sprit of a elements, your time to reveal whom you are nears. For if you don't, you'll see the death of the man you love.and don't worry, I DO know."
Kiara closed her eyes as she remembered all those whom she battled as Kakumei, the Elemental Sprite. Inside, she knew that Kodachi despised the so-called gift she was cursed with the first time her brother as the Battousai hated the thought of her.
Kiara was so caught up in her thoughts she didn't notice that she and Sano were being followed.
Anime_angel123: whew. Another chappie done!
Murasaki: Now on to the other stories you have going.
Anime_angel123: -_- I would work on MBHS, but my mommy caught me!
Murasaki: It's going to be hard for anime_angel123 to update because of her mom not letting her on that often.
Anime_angel123: Oh well, I'll try. Well, until next chappie!
Murasaki: ~*raises her hand*~
Anime_angel123: Well, I'm not! I'm just too lazy to update because my mom won't let me use the computer that often.
