Rurouni Ama, Descendent of Kenji

A/N: Hay I am such a JD (juvenile delinquent), I have been putting this off forever and now I doing this a few weeks late…. I am finally completing my dream of going to boarding school! Odd dream, I know but a dream is a dream…  So I will get B's or better so I will get a scholarship. But of course, you aren't here to read about me, you are here to read about Kurai Ama! Oh yes, if any 1 can think of a summary for this story I would be greatly obliged! 

~On the run to Hiko Mountain~

                "Why did she run out? Well I guess we will have to try different tactics. We should try to find the Champion and get him ready for the challenge.  She cannot die. She mustn't die, the consequences would be terrible!" The man from the head master's office talked with the staff of a mansion. It was pretty big, and since it was in the mountains it could cover area. Had it been in the city there would have been no room. But now these people, in the big mansion were being briefed on a critical situation. They had to mobilize to find him.

A flash-back from Tsukioka Sanko's mother's point of view

                "Please tell me, is it a girl?" asked Tsukioka-san. \ Please be a boy! Please our lives are at stake!/

                "Tsukioka-san, it is a gorgeous baby girl!" Said the nurse.

                \Damn, she and I will die… Go to plan B. / "Oh that is wonderful news! Please, give her a bracelet saying 'Tsukioka Sanko' so that she may always be known as that. Sterling silver and engraved please." \I will die; can I protect her from her father? He will surely kill us, there is no other way!/

                "Yes, right away! And also your husband will arrive tomorrow.  He sounded happy…" The nurse seeing Tsukioka-san's face left the room. \Yea he was happy to get the chance to kill me!/

                I took the baby to the river and let her sit there. The poor thing was bleeding and probably had lost too much blood. I cleaned her up and on her wrist I found a bracelet with her name on it. "Sanko Tsukioka, so that's your name. There is no way you are going to social services… *reflects on dark past* Nope! Maybe I can…. No, I guess I will keep you. But… That's it! Hiko Mountain! They take in orphans and raise them to be helpful to society! This way you can have a good life and I have an excuse to go to Kyoto. Come on Sanko (What suffix would mean daughter? I have No clue!) We are on the road to Kyoto!" I went and retrieved Sanko from the water and realized that she needed clothes… And food…… "How am I suppose to get food for her, and clothes too! I can't even afford my own food more or less hers!  Argh!" So for the first time in a while I sat down to really think…

_#_#_#_#_#_#_#_#_

                "The poor baby… Shouldn't we help out? Please! We can't let the baby die!"

                "Fine, bit did you notice how she ran? She hit the ground 3 times before hitting it thus creating a patch of compressed air so she couldn't be heard like she subconsciously knew that she was being followed! Ok we, I will get some baby food for little Sanko and some clothes so that when they go to sleep they will find them upon their waking hour. But we must go to Hiko Mountain and move. Average people are not supposed to know the location of Hiko Mountain! This is odd. We will finish this talk in the morning."

                "I guess we shall stay here the night then…" I looked over at the poor baby. She was asleep in my lap, she was so quiet and gentle, you wouldn't ever guess that she wasn't mine. \Well you are mine now… You are my baby I am your mother. That is how it will be. Hiko will be your father. Weather or not Hiko is a boy or girl. And you, my dear Sanko will be the next Hiko, this I will help you achieve to the best of my abilities. My poor dear child, I love you. / With that I sat down and read my history book to get any clues about the school on Hiko Mountain. I fell asleep reading my book and dreamt.

                ~ "Master, please allow me to be your student once again!" Said a red haired man, wait, that's….. Kenshin!

                "No." Said Hiko the 13th.

                And so they went on like this. And then my view of the mountain panned out and I saw Tokyo and Kyoto and I saw my path to get to Hiko Mountain. ~

                I woke up and said, "I've got it!" I scooped up Sanko and was about to run when I felt a package on Sanko's back. She was fully clothed. \ Who did this? Am I still dreaming? This package is enough milk formula for her for months! And there are enough extra clothes to have her live off for this year! Thank who ever did this! Please, I would love to repay you! Some day…./ With that I put my backpack on my back after replacing my History book and left to the road to Kyoto.

**********3 Days Later**********

                *Snap* *thump* A twig broke and something fell behind me, I whirled around in fright, we were taking a dangerous road. I saw a katana on the ground. "What the hell?" I picked up the katana and looked at it. I drew the sword from the sheath and thought about some of the perverse jokes at school, I defiantly cringed. \What is this doing here? How did it land here? I have no place to put it and more to the point, would it be considered stealing, taking it and not seeking out the owner? Sanko might find use of this when she goes to Hiko Mountain. But she will only be able to use a watashki for a while. Well then, I will use it to protect both of us. I will NEVER be weak again! Huh… Maybe I could use this on my bastard of a father, get him back for that…/

                "Should I approach her?"

                "No, she would not willingly travel or talk to a man. I will." The teen, no more than 16 drew a kodachi and slashed herself up, being careful to make them look real and not life threatening. She punched herself and jumped down from her branch, about 30 meters from where Ama is. She screamed and nodded to the person she was with. He jumped off to Hiko Mountain with godlike speed… (A/n: Big identity clues……)

_#_#_#_#_#_#_#_#_

                I heard a girl scream. "I guess it is time to put this katana to good use!"  I    ran off towards the scream. When I arrived I saw a gruesome sight. A teenager, her face contorted in pain, withering from the gruesome gashes all over her body. Oddly enough, she was dressed in ninja clothes of the Oniwaban-shu - dash or no? \Is she a part of Hiko Mountain? They joined up a long time ago… about 100 or more years ago, during Kenji's time. They combined to make a group that was the best in the world, the unbeatable Mitsrugi and the espionage skill of the Oniwaban-shu combined made them a force to be reckoned with./ "Miss, are you ok?" I placed Sanko on the ground and took out a water bottle.  \Hell, what am I doing? This is the last of my water supply! Oh well, maybe she will be better at finding pure water sources than I am…/

                "Him… He… Superficial… Hiko Mountain… Must go!" She put out every word she could. All made no sense. It all made no sense! \ This makes no sense what so ever! What the hell does the world have against us! WHAT! / With that I fainted from shock and exhaustion.

_#_#_#_#_#_#_#_#_

                \She passed out. Might as well clean up and lay her out to sleep comfortably; that was definitely NOT the expected reaction… Poor girl. Better yet…/ I picked up the young woman and put the baby on my back and sped off to Hiko Mountain, making sure to press the pressure point

that would guarantee that she was KO'ed until the end of the week.

Wasn't sure of where to end this, ummm gomen for not updating sooner, I was reviewing a ton of people so I was busy and also I was getting acquainted with life away from home, in *gasp* boarding school! And gomen, but I have had no time to write responses so thank you for reviewing and I will be sure to thank you all individually later.
