Coming Upon the Past

Yay! I have A review!! jumps up and down excitedly

Chapter 3 "You know this woman?!?" Karou exclaimed. He didn't answer, he just stood there holding the door, staring. "Well aren't you going to let me in?" the woman said finally breaking the science, "you know it's not very polite to keep a lady waiting." "Oro?" he said finally broken out of his daze, how could she have found me, let alone remember me? He thought.

[Flashback] He had seen her, covered in blood with a sword still in her hand. Her what seemed like her beautiful face , hidden between her messed up hair, and a mixture of dried and fresh blood. Her clothes were ripped exposing her left shoulder, her kimono ripped from her knees down swinging with the wind in pieces, "You." She hissed at him with an evil glare in her eyes, "You helped kill them." She continued in a cold and bitter voice, "NOW YOU WILL DIE!!" She yelled. "No." He said, but it was too late she was gone. The next moment she was to his right. She slashed him on his side, blood dripped to the ground and he collapsed. Why? He thought, why couldn't I predict her movements? "I am disappointed," she laughed, "Surely the great Himura the Battousai would have been able to block, or at least dodge my swing. All this talk that I heard of you," she continued, "being undefeatable," she smiled and looked at his eyes, "was just a bunch of crap." He had gotten up, "Well," she said "I'm glad that you can still stand, after a blow like that," She fixed one of many loose hairs around her face and continued, "I was starting to worry that this was going to be too easy." He had vanished, I can feel him coming to my right she thought CLING!! Their swords had met. "Well done Battousai, I see that you have been able to perform the Bato-Jitsu, well done indeed, this takes a lot of strength. Maybe you aren't as weak as I thought you were.' "Hmfp!" He snickered with a smirk on his face. Their swords disconnected. "I am going to tell you this right now Battousai. This final blow that you are to receive will paralyze you instantly, leaving you half-dead in the dirt. Are you willing to accept this?" She snickered, "I feel in my heart that you aren't as guilty as I thought you were, but I can't take any chances." And she was gone. He saw a blur of her Kimono and then, as if the lights had been turned out, he blacked out, unable to move, just as she said he thought with a grin on his face but why? Why wasn't I able to predict her movements? And how is she so fast? "We will meet again Battousai." she said and he listened as she walked away. We will meet again, the words echoed in his head, Yes we will, he thought, yes we will.

Er.... Yeah, Hope you liked it! R&R Please!
