The next mourning Kiro woke up early. He grabbed his watou and headed out into the near by forest. A cool breeze blew through the forest. He stopped in the middle of a clearing. "Something's telling me that I'm not alone. Good I was looking for a fight." Kiro thought. The breeze suddenly died. Just then a needle flew through towards Kiro. Kiro narrowly blocked it with his watou. "What the..." Kiro said. "I'm surprised that you managed to block my attack." A voice called out. Kiro was now pissed off. "Whoever you are I'll make you pay for this." Kiro said. A figure stood between two trees. "Who are you? I want to know the name of the one who wished to die by the Battousai." Kiro said. "I am Beshimi of the Oniwabanshuu." The figure said. "Beshimi time to die." Kiro said with yellow hazel eyes. "Not so fast young warrior. When you take one member of the Oniwabanshuu you must take on the whole Oniwabanshuu." Another figure said. Just then three more figures appeared in the shadows. "Hannya, Hyottoko, Shinkiyo but..."Beshimi started. Kiro stared at the shadowy figures. "Are you going to fight me or just reminisce?" Kiro asked as he dropped his watou. "I'll break every bone in your body." Shinkiyo said. "He's none of our concern. Lord Aoshi has other things planed." Hannya said as he vanished. "You got lucky, but next time you're mines." Beshimi said. Like that the Oniwabanshuu were gone. The breeze returned and Kiro was left alone in the clearing. "I guess I'll have to wait until we go to Kyoto to try my new technique." Kiro thought with disappointment deep within his eyes. When Kiro returned Kenshin was waiting for him. Kiro stared at Kenshin. "It's time to go Kenshin. If we waste anymore time here it might be too late." Kiro said. "I understand. Let me say good bye to Ms. Kaoru and the others before we go." Kenshin said. Kenshin walked into the dojo. There Kaoru was playing with Ayame and Suzume, Sano was sitting against the wall chewing on a piece of straw and Dr. Ganzai was reading. "Hey Kenshin, what's with the long face?" Sanosuke asked. Kenshin tried to bring himself to the words to say. "Yea what is it Kenshin?" a voice said behind him. It was Yahiko. "Well Kiro has informed me that there is a violent storm raising in Kyoto." Kenshin said. This shocked everyone. "What?!" Sano and Yahiko shouted. "What is it Kenshin? Please tell us." Kaoru pleaded. "Kiro and I are leaving for Kyoto." Kenshin said. "Why Kenshin? The Revolution has been over for years now. What does it have to do with you?" Kaoru asked. "Hitokiri. Kenshin's predecessor he's is the reason." A voice rang out. "Kiro." Sano said. Kiro was standing in the doorway. "How do you know that?" Yahiko asked. Kiro pointed to the scar over his eye. "I over hear him and his gang of specially trained warriors. They were going to recreate the revolution in Kyoto and then take over Japan. I tried to escape and was caught. So I paid the price and stuck with this reminder of what will come to past if something isn't done to stop them." Kiro said. Hearing Kiro's story made Sano mad. He punched the wall cracking it. "The nerve of that guy. He has to be stopped." Sanosuke said. "So Ms. Kaoru you understand that Japan's fate's rest in the balance of this battle. So please don't worry about us. Sanosuke and Yahiko please stay here and protect Ms. Kaoru." Kenshin said. Kaoru was beginning to cry. Kenshin saw this but continued out the door. Meanwhile deep in the forest the Oniwabanshuu was gathering. "Lord Aoshi the Battousai is heading to Kyoto to stop the revolution." Hannya said as he appeared behind a figure wearing a yellow and white jacket. "Fine. We will make sure that he doesn't make it to Kyoto." Aoshi said.

End of chapter 2.

Thank you Katsu for your review. Just maybe Kiro and Kenshin get into it but you have to continue to read.
