Chapter 2: The Trial and Punishment

"And where might you be going?!" She asked in a voice laced in wrath. Yahiko fainted on his feet. Anyone could tell with a glance that Sano would rather be melting in a volcano than standing 5 feet from Kaoru. Kenshin, however, thought fast.

"We were just going to buy tofu, that we were." Kenshin said.

By about this time Sanosuke's brain decided to come back to him.

"Yeah! Tofu! We are going to get some tofu, so don't worry about dinner missy."

Unfortunately there wasn't much brain in Sanosuke in the beginning to leave, and much less to come back to him. He didn't realize that he had just given Kaoru her ammo.

"AND WHAT WOULD YOU KNOW ABOUT MONEY?!! HAVE YOU EVER EARNED EVEN A SINGLE YEN?! TAE WON'T LET YOU IN TO THE AKEBEKO FOR MUCH LONGER YOU KNOW!!!"

Sano and Kenshin stood there as Kaoru continued to scream at Sano, the force of her screams blowing their clothes out behind them. The horrible racket jarred Yahiko back into consciousness.

"KENSHIN IF YOUR GONNA BUY TOFU, YOU NEED SOMETHING TO CARRY IT IN!" With that said she threw a wooden bowl at Kenshin as hard as she could because she's a loser. (A/N:I hate Kaoru.)

Kenshin, being off in Oro-land, didn't notice the bowl come flying straight for him.
