I hope this chapter will please some of your wishes. I only asked those questions in the previous chapter because I was going to use it in some other chapter later on. So here's another chapter of A Brothers Hatred!! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Recap of last chapter:

"Leave Kaoru alone!" someone yelled.

Tomoe and Kaoru turned to see.

Chapter Four Seta Soujiro

"Who are you?!" Tomoe screamed. Her face had already turned into a snarl.

Amber eyes stared hard at Tomoe then directed its gaze to Kaoru. "Are you alright Kaoru?" he asked.

Kaoru knew who that was. But Tomoe and her friends had no clue that it was Kenshin. Or was it Battousai? Kaoru couldn't tell. But she sure was glad that someone came along. "Yes I'm fine."

Tomoe stood up straight and glared at the person that defended Kaoru. "Answer my question." She stated.

The person walked out of the hall and showed his face. It was Kenshin! Or was it Battousai? "It's me. Kenshin." He said as his eyes turned into a violet hue.

Kaoru sighed. At least it was someone. But she was confused. What was Kenshin doing in the private section of school where the girls bathroom would be? "Kenshin what are you doing here?" she asked.

Kenshin scratched the back of his head and lied, "Oh nothing. I just wasn't paying attention to the tour this morning. So I got lost."

'He's such a bad liar.' Kaoru thought. She then decided to play a little with him. "But Kenshin, there is only one way here. And that way is there." Kaoru stated as she stood up and pointed to the hall behind her. "And didn't you see the sign that says 'Girls Bathroom This Way'?"

'What is she doing? Didn't she get the clue that I was following her?' he thought frantically as he tried to search for an answer. "Well I wasn't looking at the sign. I was looking at some girl that I saw that happened to walk into the bathroom." He lied. Then he saw a girl with wavy brown hair walk out of the bathroom. "And that's the girl that I was stalking." He said as he pointed to her. He abruptly left but not before he flashed a boyish smile at Kaoru. And he left.

Kaoru caught the smile and was about to smile back but couldn't. So she faced Tomoe again and glared at her.

Tomoe glared back equally with just as much force. She, unfortunately, caught the smile too and wondered if Kaoru did do anything. "Now I know I'm telling the truth. Did you see that Maria?" Tomoe asked Maria as she kept her eyes on Kaoru. "She did do all of that stuff-" Tomoe was cut off.

Kaoru had enough of this, this, thing! Even thought Tomoe wasn't exactly a 'thing'. Kaoru had decided to trip the thing in front of her. She grabbed Tomoe's shoulders and tried to push her backwards. And just in case that didn't work she stuck out her right foot and tripped Tomoe making Tomoe fall backwards and hit her head. "That's what you get b*tch." Kaoru mumbled quietly and left an astonished Tomoe with her friends trying to help her up.

"You're just a coward Kamiya, Kaoru!! Come back here!!" Tomoe called behind Kaoru's retreating figure.

"Don't worry Tomoe. Just leave her alone! You shouldn't worry about some petty competition over two boys!" Maria said. (Sorry for explaining this now!! ^^;) She had black hair with light blue streaks here and there. She had green eyes that sparkled with life, but not as much as Kaoru. She was as tall as Tomoe who was about 5'4", around there.

Another named Louisa said, "Yeah! Besides, you'll be the most popular girl in school! So you'll get them anyway!" Louisa had black hair with blonde streaks on her bangs. She as well was as tall as Tomoe.

The other two were twins. They both looked alike. Nothing was different about them except for their personalities. One had a shady backround, the other had an even shadier back round. So there's no use in telling who is who. Their names were Suzy and Lucy. And they too were the same height as Tomoe.

All of them glared at the hall that Kaoru just went through. "We'll all get her back." Tomoe hissed and her friends nodded.

With Kaoru.

Kaoru walked back into the cafeteria and sat down beside Misao.

"What took you so long Kaoru?" Misao asked while eating her food.

"Nothing. A girl in the bathroom took forever just to finish using the toilet." Kaoru lied.

Misao stared hard at Kaoru before resuming to eating her food. "Did you know that I'm having a concert tonight here in school for the first year of this school?" Misao asked with food in her mouth.

"Don't speak with your mouth full Minaki." A cool voice spoke behind Misao. "Or shall I dare say MISAO!"

Misao turned around at the mentioning of her name and saw Seta Soujiro. "Soujiro? What are you doing here?" she asked quite confused but happy at the same time.

"May I sit here?"

Misao and Kaoru nodded.

Soujiro sat down and explained his story. "How should I say this? Mom and Dad sent me here because they want to see how good this school is. If this school is better than the other schools that I have been to." Soujiro stated.

Misao and Kaoru nodded again. This was the time that Kaoru fully took in what Soujiro was wearing.

He was wearing baggy dark green pants with a gray shirt. Over the shirt was a gray coat that had pockets. Kaoru moved up to look at his face. He had a child like face. His eyes were feminine. Like a girls. One would and could mistake him for a girl if not for his short hair and slightly deep voice. But his voice sounded too feminine. So it was no use in telling if he was a girl or boy.

Kaoru was still staring at Soujiro with a speculative gaze when he stopped talking. He whispered to Misao, "Hey Misao?"

Misao took another bite if her fish. "Yes?"

"Why is your friend over there staring at me like that?" he asked with a hint of a little fear. He was only scared of the gaze she was giving her. It was so speculative that it looked like she was about to kill someone that she hated so much.

Misao looked up from her food and stared at Kaoru. She brought her hand up and snapped her fingers. Bringing Kaoru out of her thoughts.

"Hey Misao?"

'Why does this seem so familiar?' Misao thought sarcastically. "Yes Kaoru?" she asked in a bored like voice and continued eating.

"Who is that boy?" Kaoru whispered.

Misao slapped her forehead and said, "Oh yeah! I forgot to do the introductions!"

Kaoru looked at Misao weirdly.

"Seta Soujiro this is Kamiya Kaoru!"

Soujiro shook hands with Kaoru. "Hello Kamiya-san." He said politely.

"Kamiya Kaoru this is Seta Soujiro. My cousin!" Misao continued.

Kaoru was shocked for about three seconds before she snapped back to reality and shook Soujiro's hand. "Just call me Kaoru."

"And you can call me Soujiro." Soujiro said.

Kaoru nodded and smiled. She had made another friend.

At the end of school.

"So Misao when will the concert be?" Kaoru asked. "I mean the time."

"I think it will be at six." Misao informed.

"Okay." Kaoru said. She looked at her watch. It read 3:00. 'Great. Just three more hours to go.' Kaoru thought.

"Hey Kaoru!" a voice called behind Kaoru and Misao.

Kaoru turned around and spotted Kenshin running towards her. "Hey Kenshin!" she waved her hand.

Kenshin came up to Kaoru and was about to speak to her when he saw Misao. "MINAKI?!!" Kenhsin screamed. He looked really pale. "You made friends with Minaki and you never TOLD ME??!!!" Kenshin screamed.

Kaoru and Misao covered their ears and braced themselves.

"Sorry.."
