Start of the Meiji Era, a wandering samurai appears on the battlefield, his eyes glow like a dragon's he has the impression of a demon. His long samurai-styled hair flowed in the wind, the kimono attached to his armor also flowed with the wind. His name was never spoken since his birth, all that was known was that he had nine tails when he grew extremely angry, and fox ears, that earned him the nickname: "Kyubi Kitsune", or ninetailed fox. His hair was a dark gray, his eyes red, he was about 5'10, and in his late teens, as for why he wanders, who knows. All he knows in this world is that he must find a home, defend it, and earn the respect of whom he lives with. He sat on the stump of a tree and saw some red haired man with a scar on his left cheek, he saw his blue eyes and saw his inner demon, he gave a slight shudder and had a happy expression on his face. He thought he seemed familiar, but didn't recall why. The man had approached him and poked him with the hilt of his sword.

Man: Are you okay, sir?

Kyubi: I am fine, whom might you be?

Man: Me? I am Kenshin Himura. Who are you?

Kyubi: I have no true name, my friend. But you can call me Kyubi.

Kenshin: Kyubi, seems familiar, but I doubt someone with a loud stomach could be him.

Major sweatdrop right there, Kyubi looked down at his stomach, and groaned.

Kyubi: Kuso, I forgot to prepare. Got any food, Kenshin?

Kenshin: sweatdrops you are one weird samurai, come I will direct you to a dojo where you could live, since you seem like me.

Kyubi bows frantically, and gathers his three katanas One gray, one black and one white, he followed him to a large estate with curiosity.

Kyubi: Oki!!!!! Who owns this place?

Kenshin: Miss Kaoru, she's a kind person, but, keep this between us, her cooking is quite deadly.

Kyubi: Is she lovely?

Kenshin: I think I saw you at sekigahara.

Kyubi: That wasn't me unless you count that guy who killed a bunch of people without warning.

They enter the large estate, and Kyubi gets settled in already.

Lady: Kenshin! Did you get the fish and meat?

A black haired woman in her late teens runs up to the two, her blue eyes staring at the visitor, she turned to the hitokiri and raised an eyebrow.

Lady: I am Kaoru, if I may ask, who are you?

Kyubi: my name is Kakashi Kyubi, I am a rurouni like your idiot friend. Kaoru: Idiot friend, yes, he is also- Kakashi cut her off with a sharp word.

Kakashi: Battousai.
