ATTENTION: VERY long and nearly pointless authoress's note ahead. You have
been warned.
Okay...I dun know if anyone actually cares...or if it really has been a long time.... but I'm sorry I haven't updated in awhile.... not really though...but I'm almost done with this story...so I've been trying to think up other ones in my spare time...and I am NOT writing a love story between ANY two beings.... or more than two.... I don't believe in love anyway...and I've been in a bad mood so you can expect VERY SERIOUS Kenshin bashing.... poor Kenshin fan girls...only there's only going to be psychological pain in this chappie.... *grinz*
Also, I would've put stuff up earlier...but I had a LOT of homework and SOMEONE *glares at Chisei* wouldn't let me help with it.
Chisei: Do you know WHY I wouldn't??
Me (Ryu): No....
Chisei: I'll show you with these flash backs
~~~~~Flashback~~~~~
Ryu is staring at a lava lamp.
Chisei: What are you looking' at??
Ryu: If I touch the light bulb after it's been on for six hours, would it hurt my finger??
Chisei: What do you think??
Ryu: Hmm..... *touches light bulb* Ow!! That hurt...
Chisei: No duh
Ryu: Then why didn't you tell me that??
Chisei: 'CAUSE I THOUGHT YOU KNEW THAT!!!!!!!
~~~~~~~~End flash back~~~~~~~~ Ryu: So?? I just wanted to make SURE it would hurt my finger...
Chisei: Then here's another flashback
~~~~~Flashback~~~~~
Ryu is looking through the Japanese side of the English-Japanese Japanese- English dictionary.
Ryu: CHISEI! I can't find the 'L's!! Where are they in the alphabet?
Chisei: Do you SERIOUSLY mean you're looking for 'L's in a JAPANESE alphabet?
Ryu: maybe they come AFTER 'm'...no....before 'g'? No....um...
Chisei: THERE IS NO LETTER 'L' IN THE JAPANESE ALPHABET!
Ryu: Oh...so 'L' really comes.... um...uh....
Chisei hits his head with a book.
Chisei: I can't believe I'm actually related to you... ~~~~~~End Flashback~~~~~
Ryu: Um.... okay so you have a point...um.... on with the chapter!!
Disclaimer: I do NOT own RK but I DO own Ryu and Yamishi.... Ryu is me and Yamishi is a voice in my head.... so's Chisei and Eiename.... heheh...
**************************************************************
I suddenly woke up. Was that...a nightmare??? I looked around. Everything was the same. It must've been a nightmare. I shuddered. A HORRIBLE nightmare. Worse than the guilt I had after I realized that I wasn't really helping very many people by killing others. I got up. It's around noon, I suppose. The sun is out.
I walked outside and found that everyone was gone. The nightmare came to my mind. I raced out of the house and looked around. Everyone was gone. I ran down the road and found that there was some sort of town meeting going on. I looked towards the center and felt my stomach turn. Everyone was crowded around the gallows. A hanging was going to take place.
I looked over and saw the crowd part as the victim came, surrounded by police, to the gallows. As the police moved away from the victim so the executioner could tie the rope around their neck, I saw who it was. It was Ryu.
I suddenly felt a shiver go down my spine. She looked over in my direction and smirked. I remembered what she and her brother did to Kaoru and Sano...and me. But, if that wasn't a dream...why am I here?
I looked around. I spotted Megumi and Yahiko. I walked up to them and tried to put my hand on Yahiko's shoulder. My hand went right through him. I remembered Saito had come back. Did Ryu bring me back? Maybe, but if she did...why can't I do anything? Saito could still kill, even though he was dead...but...maybe she brought me back just so I could see her death, and not do anything about it. I doubt it. She doesn't seem like the type of person who would do that, after all she DID make me watch everyone I knew die...except for Megumi and Yahiko.
It suddenly clicked. She brought me back so I could watch her slaughter EVERYONE. And I couldn't do ANYTHING! Nothing, she brought me back as an insubstantial ghost. But, if she could see me...couldn't everyone else? Or, did she make it so I was totally cut off from everyone, and could only watch? I tried to talk to Megumi, she couldn't hear me. I walked in front of Yahiko, and he couldn't see me.
"You're dead Kenshin. They can't see you or hear you or feel you. Only I can see you. And I brought you back for a special treat." I jumped. That was Ryu. But how? Surely everyone else must've heard her.
I looked around. Everyone was watching Ryu as she just stood there. As calm as ever. Not even wincing as the rope was tied around her neck.
My mind raced. I had to do something. I had the strange feeling that she wasn't going to die, that she was going to kill everyone. I had to tell SOMEONE what she was capable of. But no one could hear me. What can I do?? And where is Yamishi?? He has to be around here somewhere...
I saw movement in a nearby tree. That HAS to be him. No one else noticed at all.
Ryu was looking at that very tree, seemingly lost in thought. Suddenly she said, "Well, I guess since I can't escape, I'll go now!" and jumped off.
Right when she jumped an arrow flew out of the tree and cut through the rope. Ryu dropped to the floor and cut the ropes with her 'claws'. She drew her sword and ran towards the crowd. All of this happened in around three seconds. I ran up to Ryu to try to stop her, but she ran right past me. I turned around and watched in horror as both she and Yamishi slaughtered the crowd.
Ryu turned around and faced me.
"Well, like the show?" she smirked and licked the blood off of her skin and sword.
"NO!! How COULD you kill all of them?? Why?? "My anger blazed. If I couldn't hurt her physically, I would do all I could to make her feel guilty.
"Because, both me and Yamishi need blood and flesh to live. We also need to kill, if we didn't, we would simply die. Survival of the fittest after all."
I was astounded (big word, ne?). It made sense in a way. They were predators of our race. Predators we had no knowledge of and could blend in with us. Predators we did not know to fear until it was too late. And no one could stop them.
"Why not some other race? Or some other country? Why us?"
"Because, we took a vote, all the supernatural beings did. We decided the human race was the most abundant race and least poisonous and most harmful to this planet and to other races. If we made ourselves known, peacefully, the human race would feel inferior and attempt to wipe us out. We've watched this race for thousands of years and they have not changed. Also, more of our kind lives in other countries. There are very few of us. And we learned from our mistakes."
"Mistakes? And exactly how old ARE you?? And WHAT are you? And how long have you been here?"
"Well, our kinds' last mistake was to attempt to be with the human race. That ended in disaster. The humans thought they wiped us all out, but they were wrong. As for how old we are, and what we are, I'm not going to tell you. You need not know. Also, we've been here for...102 years I think. We were on another island, but the humans there have dwindled in number, and realized we were there. So now we're here. Aren't you lucky?"
I was confused. How could they be here for that long? They must've fought in the revolution. It must have been their favorite time here. They blended right in. And no one noticed. I've never heard of them. They must've killed all they saw. Like they did now.
I glared at them. Yamishi paid no attention to me. Ryu smirked.
"Oh yes, I almost forgot. You get to go bye-bye soon. And with an added bonus."
"Wha?"
"You get to watch EVERY SINGLE PERSON you've EVER met die for eternity!"
My eyes widened. She couldn't be telling the truth.... it was just impossible...
"W-why?" I finally managed to ask.
"Because your very existence bothers me. Bye bye now!"
With that she waved her hand and everything faded away, being replaced by my friends dying. I tried to kill myself. But I couldn't. I was already dead. And in Hell.

Okay!!! I'm done!! Um.... I DO realize that I made Ryu and Yamishi REALLY powerful.... but...that was kind of an accident....'cause one of my friends (who likes Saito.... AND Sejiro Hiko AND Shishio.
