Chapter 2: Anyone who knows anything knows the Battousai...
Coincident, had it that Sanosuke was passing near Katsu's house at that exact moment. He heard the explosion and somehow knew it was connected to his best friend, the bomb guy. He ran as quickly as he could to Katsu's dwelling and threw open the half destroyed door. One man waited for him there, but it wasn't Katsu.
"Who are you?" Sano demanded running up to the man. "And where's Katsu?" He continued.
"Ah, yes. You must be his... friend... well, he's not here right now. He's gone to fight the Boss."
"The who?" Sano asked confused.
"The Boss."
"But why?" Sano said grabbing the man by his shirt, wondering if Katsu had gotten into some sort of trouble by the government, even though Sano had told him to lie low for a while.
"He said he was the Battousai." The man said not scared even though this big man was practically holding him a foot off the ground.
"You idiot!" Sano cried. "He's not the Manslayer! Anyone who knows anything, knows the Battousai has red hair and a star shaped scare on his cheek."
"I don't know... he sounded pretty convincing..."
Sano looked down at the man in disbelief. "Are you mad?" He said shaking the man. "Look... did he use a sword?" He said trying to talk some sense into the smaller and dumber man.
"Uh... now that I think of it, no. He used bombs. I didn't know the Battousai had resorted to explosives..."
"You idiot!" Sano threw the man down in disgust. "He is not the Battousai! Believe me, I actually know the Manslayer..."
"Sure, that's what they all say." The man answered rubbing his bum. Sano looked at him blankly.
"Damn it! Where's my friend? He's not the one you want so why don't you just let him go!"
"Well, that would prove a problem." The small man said standing.
"What do you mean?" Sano demanded.
"The Boss won't be happy we got the wrong guy, but the others have already taken him and gone ahead to our base."
"Where is your base?" Sano demanded darkly.
"Moesville."
"Where?"
"It's a small town along the train tracks." A loud whistle was heard off in the distance. "That's probably them now. They told me to stay behind in case anybody comes."
Sano had now turned white as snow. "Is... is there another way to get to this... Moesville?"
"Sure, I guess you could walk... but the quickest way is by train."
"I thought so." Sano said in a high squeaky voice and then fell to the side as stiff as stone.
"Are you okay, sir? Sir?" The man said poking at him. Sano just shivered still lying on the floor...

Next Chapter: What will happen to our hot looking hero Mister Sanosuke? Will he truly take the train? Well... we won't find out till probably 2-3 chapters from now... Anyway. What happens when Sano seeks help from the Kenshin-gumi? And what are Native American's doing in Japan? Find all this out and more... (or not), next chapter.
FALLEN MONK PUNCH TO ANYONE WHO LEAVES WITHOUT REVIEWING! Just kidding. I must not resort to threats... Review if you want to... no ones forcing you. ^_^
