Sorry if I mess up on the name of Kenshin's ultimate attack -
-------------------------
Chapter 3: Eyes are the Window to the Soul
My body felt nervous and my heart began to pound
As this test of love that brought me to my knees…
The moon was high and bloated when Kenshin arrived at his destination. He glanced around warily until he heard a feminine voice cry out "Kenshin!"
His eyebrows furrowed in concern as his rushed to the source of the voice. "Miss Kaoru! Miss Kaoru, where are you!?"
"Kenshin!" Was the reply. Himura caught himself and shouted his statement again. Yet again, the voice cried out "Kenshin!"
He knew that he was being deceived. "Stop trying to mimic Miss Kaoru and show me where she is!"
Many voices laughed scornfully at once. They sent shivers down his spine because he knew which belonged to what person. "Come out and face me like REAL men!!"
"Real men! Ha! Ahahahahahaha!" The voices mocked him. He looked around with a passion. "Where is Miss Kaoru!?"
"Right…HERE!!" The body of Kaoru Kamiya was thrown into Kenshin's chest. A gash was dripping over her left eye and her hands and feet were bound with thick cords. He gritted his teeth in anger and stared down at Kaoru. She opened her eyes weakly. "Kenshin…get out of here…they're going to kill you K-" She coughed up blood.
"Miss Kaoru, I would prefer to die than live out my days knowing that I could have saved you tonight-"
"AND IF YOU DIE I-I'LL KILL MYSELF-is there no other way out of this?"
Kenshin wiped the blood on her forehead and allowed her to snuggle into his outer kimono. "Be safe Kenshin."
He nodded, unbounded her arms and legs, then laid her down against a tree. "Hiten Mitsurugi-ryu: Amakakaryu-nohiro-meki!!"
Kenshin repeated his ultimate attack over and over until the bloodcurdling screams of the fallen enemies stopped. The murderous look came into his eyes as he licked his blade. He laughed maniacally and turned to Kaoru. Raising the sharp end of his blade above his head, Kenshin leered at her with a maddened expression on his face. She shut her eyes as she waited for the deathblow her beloved friend was about to deal her.
Kaoru heard the sound of metal being dropped onto the grass and opened her eyes. Kenshin was still looming above her but his eyes were filled with tears. He dropped to his knees and buried his face in the young woman's hair. Kaoru hugged him tightly and the two seemed locked in a place where no time passed.
