Author's note: I don't know if this is a Kaoru/Kenshin fic anywmore! Well,
honestly, I prefer battousai rather than rurouni but some people prefer the
rurouni. Oh well..
Chapter 4
~~~~~~~~~~
But she stopped dead when she heard Battousai's voice, "You there! Stop!"
Kaoru turned around to see Battousai holding his katana tightly with his face filled with rage. "Doesn't anyone ever tell you not to go to Battousai's house without his permission especially you alone with his wife? Well, now you know. Pity that you're going to die in my hand!" Battousai roared. He then charged toward Kaoru.
'Oh shit..' Kaoru thought as the sharp blade is getting nearer.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kaoru dodged the first attack and Battousai was surprised by this. Battousai then sorted his steps and began to attack again with his ryu-tsui- sen. Kaoru moved just in time as the blade was only a few inches away from her hair.
Kaoru took her bokken and hit Battousai at the back swiftly and neatly. Battousai was not hurt badly but when the person he hate so much hit him and he didn't even touch the person.. Battousai will be very very upset.. His eyes were now changed from amber to gold.
Kaoru could feel the sudden change of the wind. It was much stronger. It howled around Battousai before coming back at her even stronger than before. Clouds crossed the moon overhead and suddenly, it was getting colder.
Kaoru who saw Battousai's eyes held her breath. Her heart sounded loud, so loud she was sure Battousai could hear it. Then it started to snow. Snowflakes began to drift down.
"Who are you? What style are you using? Answer me!" Battousai growled.
Kaoru truly wanted to answer that but if she did that, Battousai will know she's actually a woman. And she knew he will be enraged because a woman had hit him.
"You son of a bitch! Answer me!" Battousai snapped.
Kaoru just stood there as if she didn't hear a word Battousai had said.
Then with his god-like speed, Battousai struck Kaoru. Despite her shock, Kaoru managed to grab her bokken and tried to hit Battousai on his feet. But, Battousai leaped into the air and landed back gracefully. Battousai without letting his muscle rest for a second continued to attack Kaoru.. And this time, he hit his target. He stabbed Kaoru on her left side of her stomach. But luckily, the blade didn't reach her kidney. Only a cm away.
"Stop!" Tomoe ran to the scene with a worried face. "Please stop!" Tomoe then ran to cover Kaoru from being attack again.
Battousai was shocked. "Tomoe.. What are you doing? Why are you protecting him?"
Tomoe was screaming. Even Kaoru was shocked. "She's not a man. She's a woman!"
Battousai stunned. 'It can't be! If she's a woman.. she cannot be that strong.. No way! No way! Those eyes.. sapphire blue eyes.. woman's eyes.. Shit!' Battousai thought suddenly feeling guilty.
"Why?.. This is not suppose to be happening..," Kaoru cried. Kaoru bit back a sob. Kaoru initially fought back the tears but they came freely as she ran away.
"Who was that?" Battousai asked with a frown. "She's the future goddess," Tomoe said barely a whisper and walked away silently, leaving a confused Battousai.
************
Kaoru was running back to her room. Her pain was indescribable. Not only because of the stab but also in her heart. Her breathing became unsteady and she blacked out for a few seconds once in a while. She got in through her window and the woman was panicked when she was blood.
Kaoru calmed her down and told her to be quite. Then the woman helped Kaoru to clean her blood and wrapped bandages around the injury to stop the blood from flowing. Kaoru then changed her clothes to her sleeping dress and paid the woman off.
Tears kept falling as Kaoru laid on her futon. 'I was nearly killed by Kenshin.. I should've known this would have happened. Kenshin killing me is surely not in my "most wanted to happen" list. But I have to continue this. I started this so I must end this too. Kill me as you wish Kenshin. I will never regret dying in your hands.' Kaoru dazed off to sleep.
************
(the next morning; at lunch)
"Daddy! Daddy! Can me and Saori-neechan go out today? Please.. It's boring here!" little kaoru said excitedly as food from her mouth began to fall.
Kaoru giggled at the sight of her own attitude when she was little. Koshijiro (kaoru's dad :P) just laughed and nodded. Kaoru was really happy, so did little kaoru. After lunch, they walked throught the busy town. Kaoru held little kaoru's hand tightly. Then little kaoru requested to go to the cemetery to visit her mother's grave and kaoru agreed.
On the way there, they both met a boy about little kaoru's age who was wearing a dirty cloth and was carrying two heavy buckets of water. Kaoru was sad and angry at the same time at whoever did this to this boy. Then unexpectedly, little kaoru ran up to the boy and asked if she could help. The little boy just smile and said, "No. It's okay miss. My master will be very angry if he knows that there's someone helping me. Thank you anyway."
Little Kaoru frowned and kept saying that she really wanted to help him but the little boy refused politely. Then, the boy walked away. But little Kaoru shouted, "Hey! At least tell me your name!"
At this dialogue, Kaoru remembered at the time where she first met Kenshin.
Flashback:
Kenshin was saying that he's a wanderer so he have to continue his journey. Kenshin was about to go when Kaoru suddenly said.
"At least tell me your name" "Kenshin.. Himura Kenshin," Kenshin replied. "Very well Kenshin. You can go now," Kaoru cried.
Then she heard the door closed. She expected the rurouni had gone but then was startled by his voice, "I guess I'm a little tired to wander again. I can stay here for a while."
That's when Kenshin stayed in Kaoru's house and their relationship began to bloom.
(End of flashback)
Kaoru just smiled at the memory. But she snapped back to reality when the boy answered, "My name is Seta.. Seta Soujiro.. What's yours, miss?"
Little Kaoru blushed a little bit and answered," Kamiya.. Kamiya Kaoru and this is Myojin Saori.. Hope to meet you again Soujiro-kun!"
Soujiro just smiled and walked until he was nowhere to be seen. Kaoru was startled when she heard his name. He was the Tenken boy Kenshin had fought during the Kyoto battle against shishio and this was the boy who was as strong as Kenshin. 'No way!' Kaoru thought, 'I never met him before. I have changed the history.. .. And the future..'
Little Kaoru then tucked Kaoru's kimono and said, "Saori-neechan! Saori- neechan!"
Kaoru came back to reality, "What?"
Little Kaoru exclaimed, "We have to go home now. It's late already!"
Kaoru nodded and they both went home with Koshijiro welcomed them back.
************
Kaoru could feel her blood soaking her futon. She woke up and tried to wash her blood and futon. But then, the pain from the stab became greater and greater. She was losing more blood. Her world become darker and darker and then it was only darkness.
Then the goddess came to her. Kaoru asked, "Am I dying?"
The goddess said with a smile, "Yes you are. If you aren't careful, your injury will kill you. You have changed the history thus, changing the future. So, the future is different now. Either you live through the bakamatsu or not and also the others like your father, Tomoe and kenshin. Will they live? You will never know. So, you cannot go back to the future. If you wanted to, you have to change the history to the way they were before. Live.. Kamiya Kaoru.." The goddess suddenly faded.
Then Kaoru woke up and saw her dad in front of her. "Myojin-san! Oh! I'm so glad you're okay! I have been worried sick! Don't worry.. Your injury have been treated by Genzai-san.. You have been hiding your injury! Who have you been fighting with?" Koshijiro asked her with a serious expression on his face.
Kaoru just kept silent. Koshijiro then asked her with demanding tone in it, "Who hurt you, myojin-san?"
Kaoru then replied in a soft tone, "Battousai.."
