All the stuff you do not want to read but I have to say:
* sighs * I do not own Rurouni Kenshin. Someone else owns the rights and characters to this series. You know the rest…(Please don't sue me)
Chapter 2:
From the moment Kaoru exited the plane time went by as if it were a blur. She remembered fighting her way through the crowded aisles as people pushed her along. An overwhelming feeling of anxiety overcame her as she entered the airport. It was so busy; people were walking in every which way. She became confused as she read the signs above her. She did not know whom to ask and decided it best to follow someone until she found her way.
Eventually, Kaoru spotted an entrance and immediately head towards it. She looked at her watch hoping she didn't waste too much time. She was glad that the only luggage she brought was the small carry on. The bag contained a couple changes of clothes, toiletries, miscellaneous items, and money.
She tightly hugged the bag against herself. It was the only thing she owned. If she lost it, she wouldn't know what to do. She had $12,000 dollars to start her new life with. The money was part of her inheritance after selling her fathers dojo. It was a good some of money but it would not last forever.
Kaoru pulled a small slip of paper from her pocket. The paper contained a name and an address of the place she was supposed to go to. She watched people raise their hands in the air as the hailed a taxi. Kaoru decided to follow their motions and walked to the edge of the curb and raised her hand high in the air.
In an instant a cab pulled up in front of her. The driver rolled down his window, as Kaoru bowed her head lower to listen to him.
"Where ya going?" the man asked.
"The New York Office of Immigration." She replied.
"Hop in." the driver instructed.
Kaoru opened the door and climbed into the cab. The driver turned around and asked if she had an address to this place. She handed him the slip of paper. The driver read it and then they departed.
