I do not own anything that even comes NEAR
to Rurouni Kenshin or the OVA, just this story. So don't post it somewhere
without telling me. Or you'll find a katana up your @$$ ^_-
Anyway, enjoy.

"Be done and dressed in 7 minutes,
exactly. Or I'll come to get you out myself."
With that he shut the door behind him and left Kaoru there, tears trickling
down her cheeks. She was terrified.

How does it feel
To treat me like you do
When you've laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are
I thought I was mistaken
I thought I heard your words
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now how do I feel
Chorus:
How does it feel
How should I feel
Tell me how does it feel
To treat me like you do
Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
They will turn away no more
And I still find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me
Just how I should feel today
I see a ship in the harbor I can and shall obey
But if it wasn't for your misfortunes
I'd be a heavenly person today
And I thought I was mistaken
And I thought I heard you speak
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now how should I feel
Now I stand here waiting
I thought I told you to leave me
While I walked down to the beach
Tell me how does it feel
When your heart grows cold
Chorus:
How does it feel
How should I feel
Tell me how does it feel
To treat me like you do

Walking over towards the living room he sat down behind a table, leaning with his elbows on the wooden thing he rubbed his tempels with his hands while closing his eyes.. even since the battousai had come back his migrain had come back with it aswell.. (AN: that's what you get for being such a hothead! *whacks him with pack of ice*) Ah well, he would have to deal with it. He snapped his eyes open as he noticed Kaoru coming in the room as fast as leaving it towards her bedroom, figuring she would be wrapped in towels. He didn't bother to turn around as he spoke, his tone monotonous, his amber eyes staring ahead.
"Get dressed.. we're going out. And put on your hakama (japanese training trousers.. the things kenshin wears)."
She had gotten out of the bath soon and dried herself as fast as she could. She didn't want to try anything now with him, he was serious and she knew it. Looking over at the tiny wrinkles in the water of the bath she sighed, they looked so peaceful..so.. gentle. Like her rurouni. But water could also form to tsunami's and kill.. she looked away again. Pushing open the paper door she walked into the livingroom as silently as she could, hoping he wouldn't notice her. She stared at his back for a second, he didn't budge so she though he hadn't noticed her. But he was only acting as she was about to open the door to her room, reaching out her hand. "Get dressed.. we're going outside. And put on your hakama." She nodded silently and quickly went into her room, slamming the door shut. Leaning against her door she breathed out in releave. She then blinked… why the hell did he want to go out..? She didn't complain.. still something was bothering her. She sighed and walked over to her training clothes folded neatly on the ground. Wrapping up her breasts with some bandage she pulled on ger gi and hakama and some toe slippers. Walking towards her room again she took a deap breath before opening the door and stepping ouside. Standing there with her head bowed down. Indicating she's ready. She didn't dare to speak.
"Good, you're done, finally. Let's go."
He had gotten up and pulled upen the paper door to the garden, stepping onto the wooden planks that lead to it. Walking over the path towards the gates he didn't bother looking behind him to see Kaoru was following, he could sense her. Hell, he could even –smell- her. The jasmine scent around her was something unmistakeable. He suddenly stopped in mid tracks, turning around towards her. She was taking too long and he –hated- to wait. Walking over to her he grabbed her wrist and started dragging her along at a higher pace. The full moon was up, good. She would be better able to see like this.
She blinked as he turned around, innocent blue meeting raging amber. Wondering what he wanted she was about to open her mouth, but her conciouss slapping it closed. Now it wasn't the time to ask questions. Look away from the amber orbs she looked at the ground, she felt like a slave.. and hated every second of it. She still didn't know where they were going.. she wanted to go to bed, to huddle up in her blankets and hide away from this nasty world. It was then he turned around, not releasing his rought grasp on her wrist as he dragged her along. Thatw as gonna be a nice deep purple bruise tomorrow.
She growled irritatably as he turned her around and walked away again, dragging her along with him. He wanted to check on her if she was ok, why he didn't know. He shook his head, why would he even care? He had to get rid of the rurouni.. and soon.
Looking ahead of him he smirked slightly, the opening of the forest. He could already smell the forest air, it always put him at ease. But now he wasn't to meditate there.. no… he had a little surprice for little Kaoru here in store.. (AN: And no it isn't sex you sex deprived teenagers! *smacks you all with rolled up newspaper* ^_^)
Entering the forest her sensed started alarming her.. why was she here. She suddenly started struggling against him. No one would be able to hear her here if anything was wrong with her! No one would hear her when she would be dying.. Lowering towards the ground she struggled againt him, she wouldn't set another foot into the forest! She would be used as a creature only for lust anymore! Tears starting to flow again she scream, only to find a large on her mouth.
He sighed as he found her struggling.. why wouldn't the damn woman just cooperate?! He kept walking as she struggled against his arm, ignoring her completely as his iron grasp on her only got stronger. After a few second he turned around, she was sitting on the ground and it was –really- starting to piss him off now. He looked at her face when her mouth opened. But before she could scream he had already place his hand over her mouth, silencing her. He stared into her eyes, usually that was enough to frighten the girl, or so he hoped. His stare only caused her to be parallized for a few second before she began struggling again. She growled as he yanked her up to her feet again.
"Foolish woman, I am –not- going to rape you here or harress you.. .. .. I have other places more comfortable to do that. Now just follow me and no harm will come to you." .. yet.
She nodded silently, she knew battousai was a man of his word… or so she thought. Following him siletly she shut her eyes and gasped a bit as a bird flew low over them, startling her, only making Kenshin smirk. She's frightened so easily..
After about 40 min of walking they came to an open field in the forst, the full moon shining down on the dawn glinstering grass. Romantic couples would have found it a beautiful.. but they weren't. (AN: hahahaha *shuts up* Oo;). The scene send shivers down her spine, she knew how sick Battousai's mind could be. She was frightened when she asked him what they were doing here. He just turned around to her with a confident smirk plastered on his lips.
"We.. my dear Kaoru.. are here to test if you are worthy of my time.."
He saw the confused look on the womans face as he took out his second katana (samurai sword) from his hakama. Throwing it at her the woman cought it in her hands a bit awkwardly.. she had sworn never to use one of these. When she was about to open her mouth again he had already cut her off.
"No, I won't let you fight with your pathetic bokken (wooden sword), it's time you grew up Kaoru.. and you'll need it this time."
He smirked as he reached behind him, pulling the small ribbon from his high pony tail his red trenches fell over his shoulders like a red sea, glinstering in the sunset. It would have been beautiful if it wasn't for the now flaring amber eyes that glared at her, a shadow falling over his face. The smirk had come off of his face and he just looked pissed of, the famous look of the enraged battousai (You know the eps where Kenshin fights against Saitoh in the Dojo witch Kaoru crying at the side and Kenshin goed MAJORLY pissed off and his eyes get all amber and deadly and.. *snaps out of it* .. yeah that look.) Taking out his own katana, which was sharped at the right side, he got into his Hiten Mitsurugi Ryu stance and glared at Kaoru. He was ready to attack, scaring the crap out of Kaoru.
"Don't think I'll hold back woman.. I want to know what you're like when you're driving to the –edge-"
Kaoru grabbed the sword and unshealted it, holding it by the hilt. Her hand were trembling like hell. God she was frightened to death. Facing off battousai?? The problem was that he even looked serious, -very- serious. Was she going to die like this… would this be the end? No! this couldn't be happening.. Shaking she got into a defense stance, using her own Kamiya Kasshin style. She would find out now how good her family style was.. but she had the feeling again Battousai it didn't matter what style you used, you'd be pummled into the ground anyway.
Looking at Kenshin she widened her eyes as he had suddenly vanished into a blur..

HAHAHA!!!! CLIFFHANGER!! ^__^ yeah yeah, I know it's short.
I know I can't say sorry enough but I owe an explantion to you guys. To be completely honest, I completely forgot about this *scratches head, laughing nervously* Thanks to someone that warned me over AIM a 3 weeks ago I started writing again, but due of my 15 days holiday in england I didn't have the time and inspiration to continue till now. Furthermore I'm not sure if I should continue this fanfic, I've been having some negative responses about this fanfic and I have to admit.. they got a point. I started writing this fanfic so I could let my 'evil' side in me could go free in my creation. I've been having some other idea's in my head for a Kenshin fanfic for a while. So if you want me to continue this please leave a review, if not do it aswell. I want to know what people think about this. Btw, I'm NOT a kaoru hater, she's quite ok actually, she's like me.. *whistles at my short temper-ness* o.o;;;;;;
Sayonara,
Sisilaya.
