Lynx, Chapter 4
Explanations
And so my story continues, here I was slung over Saitou's shoulder at the gate of my home with Kenshin looking like he was about to go absolutely crazy. Awwww. I guess that means I'll have to shock him out of it, doing this on my part would be a great pleasure and honour. I mean the guy has gone through the bakumatsu theirs not many things that will surprise you after that, believe me I know.
But this is not a time for going down memory lane so concentrating I took in the situation I had neglected with my thoughts. Saitou being himself had decided to piss Kenshin off and currently they were about to begin fighting. I felt Sano and Yakiko come up behind me. Inwardly smirking at the chaos that was about to ensue, I felt tears come to my eyes then suddenly I cried out, with my voice tear choked and distressed of course, "Don't do this please, I thought you loved me." And now the bombshell, "please Saitou."
(A/N: Now I was really thinking of leaving it of here but I know some people who would in reality hunt me down and kill me so on with the story)
Even Saitou did a double take on that one, Yakiko was trying to clean out his ear and Sano was looking suspiciously at everyone trying to figure out why we were apparently tricking him. Kenshin, well Kenshin was expression- less. I don't know what I was expecting but so I couldn't tell if to be surprised or not. Saitou broke the silence with a, "I can't believe this bunch of criminals is getting tricked by this pathetic attempt at a distraction. In any case I'm not one for incest."
That's a relief or Tokio should be very, very worried
The gang let of a sigh of relief, including Kenshin who was now behaving his usual self. Then his brain registered the word 'incest'. He is currently looking at Saitou in disbelief but personally I think he's relieved at least I'm not in love. Like I'd ever be in love with that asshole. Please I have my standards, which mean out of the family and not a revolting asshole.
In any case they were now looking at me for an explanation the Yakiko opened his overly large mouth and shouted out, "Busu, what are you wearing?"
Sano finished it with a, "or not wearing."
Geese, so a foot and a half or so of my leg was showing and suddenly I had achieved scanty clothing status. These people make too much of a big deal on feet. I suppose my clothing is rather strange, I bought them down in the ports from a strange European lady, I not even going to begin that story. Excusing myself quickly I went to change into my training clothes.
Now is as good a time as any to say what I needed to say regardless of the risk of them leaving, if they left I could always move on with my life. Kenshin had made a pot of tea, being the gentleman that he is so with that we all sat down and I quietly began, after being prompted by a, "What the hell is going on, Jou-chan?" courtesy of Sano's ever so eloquent tongue and a, "Sessha would also like to know." from Kenshin.
And thus I began, "Well I suppose I can begin with my mother, she had to leave when I was around seven, my father was fighting in the war at the time so I went to stay with my aunt, his sister, who he was previously estranged from. After a year or so I was taken to my father and forced to stay with him."
At this Kenshin listened closer, guess he knows good things don't happen to loud-mouthed people like me.
"From then on I mostly kept to myself except during training time with my father, it was safer." Before I had a chance to continue Yakiko interrupted me, "Your father couldn't have been in the war, it's against the Kamiya Kasshin principles."
"Kasshin came after the war when the fighting was finished and renounced most of his ways, during the war I used projectile weapons, like throwing stars." I replied. "So any way that's the main story, any questions?"
Sano started, "That still doesn't explain why the hell Saitou's in our house?"
'Our house' he says. That boy bold, he never buy food, clean the house, cook breakfast, the only thing he did was fix a hole in the wall he put there in the first place, oh Kami-sama. But this not being the point at the moment I guess I'll have to let it go as usual. So coolly I began, "Oh Saitou's just in my house because he's my Uncle and he wants to speak to Kenshin." And no he couldn't just do it the normal way of walking into my house and ignoring me I can never understand how my aunt married him. "He's my Uncle cause he married my Aunt, who didn't have the same name as my father."
Saitou had been quiet for an amazingly long amount of time and as had Kenshin. So Saitou began with a, "Well your wrong I actually came to talk to you, your grandfathers back."
"Make your choice" he said then left.
A/N: What oh what are they talking about hmmm I know but I'm not going to tell. Any way, thanks to all my reviewers especially Alex for bringing back my inspiration. I had originally planned to take the story in a different direction but I got a really cool idea and trashed all the other chapters I had already written. So now that its summer I'll start updating a lot more often and please continue to read and review I really appreciate it. As usual if you have any questions I'll try to answer them without giving away my story. Okay so that's it and please excuse any grammatical errors.
