Disclaimers: PLEASE don't sue me. I don't have the money. If I did I
would be with my lawyer trying to buy Rurouni Kenshin! So I don't own the
characters (yet! *starts to plan fundraisers* MUAHAHAHAAA!) If I EVER do, I
would be adding the characters I want and stuff. But I can't. -_-
Author's notes: If this seems weird, the genre should be fantasy but that isn't on the list now is it? Oh well. A lot of weird stuff is gonna happen since it's my first fan fic. But to clear up some things my nick mane Weasel is NOT because of Misao! Although I think Misao is awesome, my nickname has nothing to do with her. I had it a long time before I found out about RK. I am a Weasel because my friend and I always Weasel our way into things...
*****Chapter 1 ~ Alley way fights*****
Her body felt as thought it ran for miles, but it was just hit too many times. There was a familiar taste of blood coming up her throat as usual which meant the beating was coming to a close. Once he saw the blood trickle down her chin he knew she learned her lesson.
"Get up, you good for nothing lump!"
Here it came, the hacking cough. Kujiro rushed to outside so she wouldn't get an extra beating for getting blood in the dojo. The familiar taste of blood...how disgusting!
She heard the voices, "Where is the girl! She needs to take care of dinner!" Her mother and father were fighting again. They usually fought, but when Kujiro was involved (wait it was always blamed on Kujiro) it just meant an extra beating.
Kujiro waited for her mother to come and smack her for being "Lazy." What Kujiro would give to give her mother and father a nice good smack. "Yeah that would be the day her parents were nice." But her thoughts were stopped at the noise of rattling of dead leaves. Kujiro was too weak from her beating to stand and look tough. But how could Kujiro, a 7 year old look tough?
Out from the bushes came a man. From the black night she could only see his outline. Kujiro saw the shine of a fancy sheath...a sword sheath. She had seen them before in her fathers training hall. Had he come to kill her? The man spoke with an abnormal gentle voice.
"Do your parents beat you often? Such a shame...a girl like you shouldn't be treated that way."
"W-wh-who are you?" Kujiro was beside herself. But since she could see the man's face he still wasn't nearly as scary as her father. But how could someone speak with such gentleness?
"Don't be rude answer my question and I will answer yours. Do your parents beat you often?" This guy was determined.
"What's it to you?"
"I can help you. I know you hate it here. I can help take you away from you abusive parents. If you come with me I can help you become a strong person," the man spoke with such gentleness, nothing of what Kujiro was used to.
Kujiro figured that it was better than staying here. And being an eight year old, it would be easy for anyone to convince Kujiro to follow them. "What do you mean by help?" His voice put her in a spell. It was so rich. Not a raspy yell.
"I will train you to be a swordswoman. And in the skills of magic," the strange man replied.
"So what is your name?"
"Nagasaki Saikaku. And what might your name be?"
"Nakao Kujiro. Ano...from now on do I have to start to call you shishou?"
"Yes, come on lets go before your parents come to look for you." The two figures shrunk in the distance.

"Kenshin? Kenshin! Kenshin, where are you?" Kaoru called out Kenshin's name a few more times and started to worry. What if he left?!
"What is it Kaoru-dono? Is something the matter?" Kenshin saw the worried look on Kaoru's face which worried him.
"Oh nothing! I just wanted to ask you if you want to go out to the Akabeko tonight. We could invite Sano and Megumi and I guess Yahiko would come," Kaoru asked.
Kenshin smiled. "Sessha would like that, that he would!"
Kaoru imagined Yahiko's face when she would tell him they were going to the Akabeko. Everyone knew he liked Tsubame. "Yahiko?!" she called, "Where is that kid?"
"What is it busu? Don't tell me I have more training?!"
"Do you want more? And DON'T call me ugly!"
"Sure whatever BUSU!"
"You keep that up you will have to do 100 chops and wont go to the Akabeko with everyone tonight!"
"WHAT? I'll be good!"
"Well let's go. Kenshin are you ready to go?"
"Yes Kaoru-dono!" He had a foreboding feeling of what would happen that night but ignored it.
~*~ ~*~
"Well, I haven't seen you all in awhile! How are you?!" Tae the hostess of the Akabeko was very pleased to see the group of people.
"Hello Tae! We are great. Could we have a table?" Kaoru said politely.
"Of course!"
~*~
Tsubame blushed as she saw who entered the Akabeko. She hoped that Yahiko would stay after and talk with her. She really did like him. But it was obvious he liked her too.
~*~
"Thank god we got out of there before Tae bothered me about those bills I never paid," Sano sighed in relief.
"Maybe you shouldn't waste all you money gambling baka tori!" Megumi said.
"Hey, Kitsune what I do is none of your business. Hey where's the little punk?"
"Yahiko is staying behind to talk with Tsubame," Kaoru replied.
~*~ ~*~
She was never gonna get any sleep. Her dream of the night her master took her kept waking her up. Second of all her movements were limited because of this damn kimono. How do women move in these things?! Kujiro felt as though she was tied up. How could Ajisai fall asleep in this alley way?! It gave Kujiro a foreboding feeling...she would never be able to sleep here. She much preferred her old dojo. To late now.
She was torn from her thoughts at the sign of movement at the opening of the alley way and the appearance of shadows. Those baka's thought that she was asleep. A harmless Japanese woman who had no clue how to use a weapon. Yeah right! Kujiro shook Ajisai to warn her of their visitors.
"I sense them too," Ajisai was getting excited to fight them. "Can I PLEASE take this ridiculous kimono off? They obviously found us and I'm NOT fighting in a kimono!
"You're right next time we are gonna wear Chinese clothes. Those are much easier to move in!" Kujiro definitely agreed with Ajisai. She HATED wearing these kimonos when she had to run. They slowed her down too much, which greatly annoyed her.
"Look here boys! We found ourselves some women!" The obvious leader of the scum spoke out. His greasy hair stuck to his face along with all the dirt on his face. It was disgusting. His appearance made both Kujiro and Ajisai want to run and take a bath.
"Look here Kujiro we found ourselves some scum who don't take baths!" Ajisai spat back.
"Well missy! You want to say that again? You are pretty much defenseless in an alley way, at night!"
"That's it! Kujiro I am NOT fighting with a kimono!"
"I TOTALLY agree!" with that Kujiro undid her obi to reveal a uniform similar to a ninja uniform.
Ajisai had a little trouble with her obi and became irritated to she just took out her tanto and slashed the obi to pieces revealing her gi and hakama pants.
"Gents these girls are actually thinking about fighting us!"
Ajisai growled at this comment because she knew she could take them all on.
Kujiro quickly put up her long black hair into a messy bun so it wouldn't get in her way during the fight.
~*~
Kenshin, Kaoru, Sano, and Megumi walked down an empty street. They soon heard some noise coming from an alley way.
Kenshin saw down the alley way a group of men and farther down the alley way 2 young women. Kenshin was about to tell the men to not bother them when he heard:
"That's it! Kujiro I am NOT fighting with a kimono!"
"I TOTALLY agree!"
Kenshin was surprised to see them shed off their kimonos to reveal other clothes neatly concealed beneath.
The girl who neatly untied her obi was wearing a uniform close to a ninja uniform. She had long black straight hair, which was soon put in a messy bun. The other one had become irritated. Kenshin sensed great annoyance in her ki. She soon slashed off the obi and threw the kimono to the floor to show her black gi and white hakama pants. Her black hair matched her gi.
~*~
"Well, well, well. Are you sure you want to fight us? You are outnumbered. You are only women against 15 men!"
"Are you sure you want to get so cocky now? I should be asking you if you are sure you want to fight us," Kujiro was PISSED. They said she was only a woman. She would show them what kind of woman she was, as their blood drips from their veins.
"Come on boys...don't go easy on them just because they are women."
"Come on we are ready," Ajisai couldn't wait to fight. As the first foolish fighter came at her she sensed weakness in his ki. She easily disposed of him. Kujiro fought with the same ease. These guys were WAY too easy. But out of no where she sensed a great ki. A strong ki at the end of the alley way watching her movements. There were two but one was much stronger. Kujiro, against her common sense looked at her audience. But felt pain on her side. She let out a whimper at the unexpected slash. The leader of the scum slashed her side while she looked away from the ongoing battle.
"You cheated! Now you are as good as dead!" moving as though the slash never happened she speed towards him at a great speed and pierced though his heart with her katana.
Ajisai heard the whimper and looked away but paid for it as well. She was cut deep but not enough to have a scar. In less than 30 seconds the guy who cut her was lying in his own blood.
~*~
Kenshin saw they obviously didn't need his or Sano's help. He was amazed at the skill they had. They were almost as good as him.
~*~
Megumi saw how the battle was started but refused to watch the actual battle. She heard the cries of men in pain. She also swore she heard a whimper to gentle to belong to a man.
~*~
Now that all of the men were killed Ajisai looked at Kujiro longing to feed her demon hunger. Kujiro shook her head signaling to not feed. Ajisai became mad but realized Kujiro's reasoning. At the end of the alley way there was a group of four people. 2 men and 2 women. Ajisai growled at her misfortune. She wanted to feed so badly. She wasn't sick of the ningen human food food but longed for a ningendemons word for mortal to snack on.
"No Ajisai," was all Kujiro said. Kujiro then whispered knowing that the observers would heard, "We need a place to stay, we could ask them...." Kujiro trailed off at seeing one of the women approaching her. She wore lipstick and a smock over her kimono. She had nice black hair.
"You are hurt. Here let me take care of it," Megumi said, in full doctor mode. But Kujiro could have easily taken care of the cut to her side but decided against it.
Ajisai looked at Kujiro confused on why she didn't take care of it herself letting the woman treat it for her. But decided to ask her later. Now wasn't the time to voice her question, she wanted to get out of here.
Author's notes: It isn't that weird yet but you just wait! It'll get screwed up later on. Just you wait until Sano has this wacky idea that involves Kujiro.....yeah... Ja ne minna! ^_^ P.S. PLEASE review. I don't care if you write nasty things...wait I do. Any way PLEASE!!!! The first person to review will be told my wacky ideas....if they want to! *_*x But you can't BRIBE your readers!
