Chapter Four: Simple Plan?
It was smooth over rough this time. Rough was for last night; agonizingly sensuous and gentle and seductive mischief was for now.
She moaned once more. Kaoru couldn't help it. Kenshin's force upon her body was so tender, so mild as he pressed her deeper into the bed's silken mattress, which contrasted to the hardness of the calloused hands he used to touch her; to feel her, to squeeze her ever so lightly.
Each of his kisses upon her breasts, each time he entered her, he made sure each movement was fluid; while letting her lick him and touch the wholeness of his body just as lovingly.
So it was a great disappointment to her when an hour later she awoke, alone this time. She frowned. Kenshin no baka.
She would kill him for that.
Or she could leave him half alive; she decided, as she noticed something beside her pillow from Kenshin.
It was a blue rose, its petals soft and beautiful; with a long, satin ribbon the color of lavender tied around its stem.
Before she could suppress it, the smile had already appeared on her face. Her fingertip gently grazed the flower.
"I love you too…"

Saitou looked around him.
'Now this is a wonderful mixture of sorts…' Aoshi was there, so was that rooster, that broomhead, Okina, and Battousai, then Saitou himself. The gang was seated around a long, wooden table, in a room equipped with huge windows looking out into rainy Tokyo.
Aoshi took a sip of his tea and was just about to ask Saitou what the meeting was about, when Battousai beat him to it; his tone curt and sharp as a double-edged sword. "Well, Saitou? Are we just going to sit around here cozily, sipping coffee, tea and hot cocoa?"
"Yes."
Sao spat out his coffee. "You're kidding, right?!"
Saitou raised an eyebrow at him. "Never heard of sarcasm, have you, chicken brain? What's the matter? Did the barn you grew up in lack a proper school?"
Battousai growled. "Look, Saitou, we know something is up, otherwise we all wouldn't be here. Now as you ought to know, I have five other meetings to deal with today, and am already running late. What's more, I may have to kill a couple of f***ing idiots this evening. Do you mind getting it over with?"
"Actually, Himura, you may have to kill more than just a couple." Saitou said smoothly. Aoshi looked up sharply. "What?"
Saitou nodded and stood up, pacing the room elegantly. "It's Shishio's gang, the Green Serpent. Originally, this meeting was supposed to be about how we are going to smuggle a good sum of goods out of this country, but I got a call this morning from headquarters. We've been attacked."
Sano tensed up. "How many men did we lose?" "Twenty-five. The enemy only lost ten or so. Three of the huge crates containing highly-valuable jewelry and porcelain were taken as well. If this happens again, the Shadow will surely lose profit."
The noise a chair leg made as the person sitting on it stood up made everyone look at Battousai. He was adjusting his long, obsidian leather trench coat and fixing the swords at his side.
"It won't happen again. Aoshi, I want a plan to attack Shishio's gang by tonight. Okina, have the total amount of money lost on our side calculated and have our men size up as much goods as they can from the cargo ships from China, arriving this afternoon at four. I want everyone training for the attack from today until tomorrow, Saitou."
He turned to look at Chou and Sano. "The two of you inform the women."
With that, and ignoring Saitou's smirk, he swept past the room and chose to hide the evil grin on his face as he heard Sano bellowing, "THAT'S ALL WE'RE GOING TO DO IN ALL THIS?!"
