MEILIN MEET THE BATTOUSAI!!! (Stupid title, but hey I couldn't come up with anything better ^.^())
~.~()
Meilin and Pkero turned around and jumped into the spiraling colors of time. Now it was time for Meilin to capture her first cards.
Meilin looked around, in awe, as she was falling into an endless range of colors.
"Wow," Meilin murmured as she looked down, "It looks like a never ending fall."
"Well, you just need to focus on our destination like Sailor Pluto said and will be there," Pkero said on Meilin's shoulder.
Meilin looked at Pkero, "Pkero, why isn't there anyone with Sailor Pluto? She looked so alone."
Pkero nodded, "Yes, she is alone she was destined to guard the Gate of Time forever, Queen Serenity appointed her that job. It's a huge responsibility and honor. But the down fall is she will also have to be alone for all eternity."
Meilin looked back down at the colors before her, "She's somewhat like me. She has to be in the shadow of things and never gets recognize," Meilin gripped her fists, "Like I hot I am in the shadow of Sakura all the time, oh how I would like to punch her in the face once or twice."
"Well, you shouldn't want that," Pkero said looking at Meilin.
"Why not?" Meilin asked, "It would sure make me feel good."
"You have no reason to fight, you are blessed not having to fight," Pkero said.
"What do you mean?" Meilin asked questioningly.
"Where we going now, in that time, people fought for what they believe in, even if the reason wasn't good, some kids were even forced to fight. Many lost their lives because of it," Pkero said wisely.
"Fine," Meilin muttered in an arrogant way.
"There it is up ahead," Pkero pointed at a huge yellow light that was in front of them.
The light got brighter.
TIME: ANCIENT JAPAN PLACE: DAYTIME TOKYO NOW WE ARE IN KENSHIN'S TIME.LET THE CARD CAPTURING BEGAN!!
(^.^)
"AAAHHHHH!!!" 'THUD'
"Ohh," Meilin said as she stood up rubbing her butt, "That really hurt, I thought we would at least get a SOFT landing."
Meilin looked around, "Pkero?"
Meilin saw some rumbling in the bushes in front of her, she walked up to them and moved some branches out of the way, Pkero popped her head out.
"YUCK! I got some leaves in my mouth," Pkero said spitting them out.
"Here let me help you," Meilin grabbed Pkero's head and pulled her out of the bushes, "There you go."
Pkero floated out of Meilin's hands and rubbed her head, "You could have found another way to get me out,"
"OH, your welcome," Meilin said in a sarcastic voice, she looked around, "Wow, this looks like one of those old Japan movies you see on T.V."
Pkero floated on top of Meilin's head, she looked around. She saw the old buildings.
(Author's Note: Sorry I can't really describe how they look, but they look mostly like shrines but kind of smaller, oh just use your imagination!!)
Meilin walked from behind the bushes and onto the dirt street. She looked around and saw that all the people were wearing old kimonos.
"Their all wearing kimonos," Meilin whispered to Pkero.
"Yeah, and they all seem to have an eye problem, their all staring at us," Pkero said. She was hiding under Meilin's shirt shoulder talking into her ear.
Meilin looked around and saw that they were all staring at her, Meilin looked down at herself, "Maybe their staring at what I'm wearing, I mean it is my school uniform and it is kind of weird."
"Yeah especially in this time," Pkero agreed.
"What should I do?" Meilin asked as she walked by a restaurant.
"Maybe we can find a way to get an outfit for you so you can blend in," Pkero suggested
"Yeah, but how?" Meilin asked, "I'm mean it looks like everyone is trying to avoid me."
People who looked at Meilin either turned around and walked the other way or ran off screaming, "Witch!"
Just then Meilin and Pkero heard a beeping noise.
"Where's that coming from?" Meilin asked.
"It's coming from the Luna Pack!" Pkero exclaimed.
"What? What's that?"
"Look, Meilin, you see that alley?" Pkero pointed.
"Yes,"
"Go in there," Pkero commanded.
Meilin ran into the alley, "Now what is a Luna Pack?"
"You know that carrier case Sailor Pluto gave you?"
"Yeah, what about it?"
"I think she's trying to communicate with us," Pkero said floating out of Meilin's shirt.
Meilin looked down at her waist and sure enough, the nose of the cat faced card carrier was blinking.
"I wonder what she wants," Meilin took the carrier off of her waist.
She looked at it and saw the nose blinking on and off with a red light. Meilin pressed the button, the carrier popped out of her hands and it started to float on it's own.
It projected an image. Once the image was clear you could see Sailor Pluto.
"Hi Meilin, did you make it?" Sailor Pluto asked.
"Yes, we did Sailor Pluto," Meilin said happily, "I'm so glad you're here, me and Pkero stand out too much, and I was wondering what should we do."
"Well, Pkero you can easily blend in," Sailor Pluto smiled.
"Really? How?" Pkero asked.
"Well, you can be a stuffed animal," Sailor Pluto smirked.
Meilin started laughing, Pkero just frowned, "Now that's not funny, but I guess that would work."
"As for you Meilin, you will need some different clothes," Sailor Pluto suggested.
Sailor Pluto waved her hand, and said, "Heads up!"
Meilin and Pkero looked up and saw a small yellow cloud, out popped what seemed to be a white packaged. Meilin caught the package when it fell down.
"There, you go," Sailor Pluto smiled, "There is a backpack in there a long with four pairs of clothes, and some ancient Japanese yen so you can buy what you need."
"Wow, arigato Sailor Pluto," Meilin said bowing down a little, "This will help us a lot!"
Sailor Pluto smiled and warned, "You two be careful now. Make sure you only do your job and not any other kind of disturbance. It could disrupt the flow of time."
"Don't worry Pluto I will make sure of that," Pkero said saluting Pluto.
Pluto smiled and the projected image disappeared. The Luna Carrier floated back to Meilin.
"Well, hurry up and get dressed so we can be on our way," Pkero said. Meilin nodded and began to get dress with her new clothes.
"I can barely walk in these clothes," Meilin complained as she put her old clothes and the rest of her supplies in her book bag.
"Well, at least you can barely walk just like the rest of these people here," Pkero giggled.
Meilin slid her book bag onto her back and said, "Well we better get going, we don't want anything else in time going wrong."
Pkero flew inside Meilin's book bag, and Meilin walked out of the alley.
"This will be a snap," Meilin said proudly, "We will get those cards in no time!"
Pkero just looked at her without saying anything to her, "That's what she thinks," she said quietly to herself.
A FEW HOURS LATER.
Meilin plopped down onto the ground next to a restaurant.
"We've been looking all day, and we still haven't found a single thing. And now it's getting dark," Meilin grumbled as she looked at the setting sun.
Pkero flew out of her book bag and sat down beside her, "Well, wherever that Kenshin person is, he surely does keep to himself."
"You got that right, and I'm not sure if it will be a good idea for me to ask where he lives," Meilin sighed.
"Why not?" Pkero asked, "It sure could help us, and save us LOTS of time!"
"Well, what if the person starts to ask a lot of questions?" Meilin stated, "What would I do then?"
"That is true, but what if." A ghastly, loud scream cut off Pkero.
Meilin stood up, and pointed, "Look over there Pkero, look at that lady!"
Pkero floated onto Meilin's shoulder and saw what Meilin was talking about. A young woman, maybe around her early 20's, was being harassed by four men.
"Come on baby, let's play, it'll be fun," one of the taller, and bigger men said grabbing onto her hair while two other men grabbed her wrist, and they started to taunt her.
Meilin watched as people just walked past the appalling scene as if nothing was even happening.
"What is wrong with these people?" Meilin questioned, "Why are they just walking by? Why isn't anyone helping her?"
"Well Meilin in this time, raping women, is normal, so people even stop to watch," Pkero said regretfully, "It's just the way it is."
"Well if no one does anything." Meilin began to walk towards the scene.
"NO!" Pkero flew in front of her, "Remember we are only here to capture the Moon Cards!"
"But Pkero," Meilin pleaded.
"No, we will be disturbing the time continuum," Pkero stated firmly.
"Grrr," Meilin could do nothing but look at the scene.
The taller man had let go of the woman's hair, and began to caress her face.
"Don't worry, you'll enjoy this, or at least I will," the big man began to laugh.
The woman spit in his face, and kicked his shin. The man shrieked, not out of pain, but out of surprised. Meilin grew a smirk across her face.
"Hold the bitch down for crying out loud!!" the man ordered.
The two of the three men, got a better grip on the woman's wrist, and slammed her onto the ground while the third man grabbed her hair. The big man took her by her chin and slapped her.
At that moment Meilin couldn't stand and watch anymore.
"That's IT!" Meilin said angrily, she began to walk up to the scene.
"No, Meilin stop!" Pkero murmured to Meilin in a panic. She flew after the black haired girl.
"No, Pkero after I distract the men you get the girl out of here!" Meilin ordered Pkero as she walked up to the men.
"Alright," Pkero answered. 'It's not like she's going to listen to me anyway.' Pkero thought as she waited for the right moment to get the young woman.
"Stop it now!" Meilin said furiously, as she approached the men.
"Oh, look you guys," the man chuckled at the sight of the small girl, "We have another little girl that wants to play. You wanna play with the big boys little girl?"
The man walked towards Meilin until he was right in front of her. He was much bigger than Meilin anticipated, but she wasn't afraid. He was about around 6" tall.
He bent down and looked into Meilin's face and said, "Well little girl, do you wanna play?"
"Little this," Meilin muttered as she skillfully kicked him, good and hard in his stomach.
The man slouched over in pain, falling to his knees. He looked over to his other three friends and nodded to his friends to come over and help him. They let go of the young woman and stood in front of their fallen' friend.
"Well, let's see you handle all three of us little girl!" One of the men said hastily.
Meilin did three back flips and landed skillfully into her fighting position. She motioned her hand 'to bring it on.' The three men charged at her, each of them throwing punches, but every punch they threw Meilin blocked it.
The three men, backed up to catch their breath, "What's wrong? Is this little girl kicking your big butts?" Meilin taunted them with a grin on her face.
Meilin just noticed, that the big man she had knocked down was gone, she looked around and all of a sudden she felt something hit her face. She fell down, and looked up and saw the man she thought she had K.O.ed earlier.
"What's wrong, you look like you've seen a ghost," the man mocked.
Meilin stood up and wiped the dirt off her face and stood up, "Naw, I didn't see a ghost, just the ugliest face on Earth."
The man growled, "Get HER!" The three other men ran towards her. Meilin jumped up and landed on one guy's face and jumped up on a stone fenced. Meilin looked around and saw the woman she had saved earlier had escaped.
"Good," Meilin grinned. 'Pkero must have gotten her out of here.'
"What are you grinning for stupid girl?" The man said as he turned around and also noticed that the woman was gone, "You stupid little bitch, you let that woman get away!!"
Meilin lifted her hands and shook her head, "Well, that was part of the plan," she beamed, "Do you want to know the rest of the plan?"
"Why not?" the man answered.
"It's to kick your butt!" Meilin jumped into the air and kicked the big man down, "the bigger they are, the harder they fall."
One of the other men, tried to kick Meilin but she dodged and punched him in the stomach. She took a few steps back, and waited for the other two men to come after her. They were nowhere in site.
"Where did they go?" Meilin looked around.
"Behind you!" Pkero yelled out as she popped out of a tree.
Meilin turned around, but not fast enough, the two men grabbed Meilin's arms and held them behind her back.
'Oh no, I got to help her,' Pkero panicked, than a slithery black shadow crept across the ground but as quickly as it had came it disappeared just as fast.
"I wonder if that was." Pkero was interrupted by a piercing scream. Pkero looked back down towards Meilin. Meilin was getting the living hell punched out of her by the big man she had knocked down earlier.
"Oh no, I need to help her," Pkero said as she flew out of the tree.
"So where are your little smart comments now?" the big man asked pausing his continuous punches.
Meilin coughed up a few drops of blood and then looked into the eyes of the big man and grinned, "No one needs to make a comment about a face like yours,"
The man grew a big scowl across his face, "For that little comment, it will be the last thing you ever say." The man drew his fist back; Meilin closed her eyes to become mentally prepared for the punch.
Nothing had happen in the few seconds that had past, all of a sudden Meilin heard a 'gasp' and then a 'thud'. When Meilin opened her eyes she saw a man with long red hair tied back into ponytail, on the left side of his face was a cross like scar.
Meilin's cheeks flushed with red, 'This must be the great swordsmen Kenshin!' she thought to herself. Meilin looked at the fallen man, he was knocked out for good.
"I see you guys have a thing for helpless young women," the young red haired man questioned the three men, holding down Meilin. The men let go of Meilin, and started to gang up on the red haired man.
"And who do you think you are, short man?" One of the men asked the red head.
"I believe I'm known as Himura Kenshin, and you men are?" Kenshin asked the men with a smirk on his face. The men's faces quickly changed from grins, into faces of fear.
"Oh, uh, I think we have some appointment we need to go to," one of the men stuttered stupidly. They grabbed their fallen friend and ran for their lives dragging their friend not too far behind.
Kenshin started to laugh as he watched the men run. Meilin stared at him for a moment, until she felt some blood trickling down the side of her mouth; she wiped the side of her mouth with her hand. Kenshin turned back to the attention of the young girl he had rescued. Meilin blushed, she knew the sight he saw. She was dirty and had drips of blood all over her new kimono.
"Are you alright?" Kenshin asked Meilin, "I mean, I can see you're not okay, but as far as any broken bones is concerned."
Meilin looked around to see if Pkero was around, she saw her crawling into her book bag that was near a tree, she turned her attention back to Kenshin, "No, I think I'm fine. How did you know I was here?" Meilin asked.
"This lady ran to my door and asked me to help a young girl that had help her escape, she didn't leave her name but she did tell me where to find you," Kenshin said with a smile. Meilin smiled back.
"So where are your parents?" Kenshin asked.
"Oh, I'm going to Osaka to visit my, uh, um, cousin, yeah my cousin," Meilin lied.
"Oh, well do you have any place to stay?" Kenshin asked curiously.
"Uh actually, I don't have a place to stay and I don't have much money," Meilin informed Kenshin.
"Well, you can stay at my place," Kenshin offered, "I wouldn't want you to get in any more trouble,"
Meilin bowed a little, "Arigato Kenshin, I just have to get my stuff," Meilin pointed to her book bag next to the tree. Kenshin nodded.
Meilin ran over to the tree and slung her book bag over her shoulder. Kenshin looked strangely at her.
Meilin felt a ripple of nervousness run through her body, "Nani?"
"Your bag," Kenshin pointed, "It looks different from all of the other bags that I've seen,"
"Oh, it's a fad were I come from," Meilin laughed nervously.
"What's a fad?" Kenshin asked.
'Oh yeah, the word "fad" isn't used in his time yet, I need to use better vocabulary,' Meilin contemplated.
"Oh, I mean a look. It's a new look from where I come from," Meilin said walking up to him.
"Oh alright let's be on our way," Kenshin said walking off with Meilin not walking too far behind.
"It'll only take us a few minutes to get there," Kenshin said as he turned a corner.
"Oh all right," Meilin smiled.
'Wow, I'm actually meeting a famous person!' Meilin thought excitedly. Some movement in her book bag interrupted Meilin's thoughts.
Pkero's head popped out of the book bag, Meilin looked over to Kenshin to make sure he wasn't looking when she said to Pkero, "Pkero, look who I found!"
"I can see that, but technically you didn't find him that lady did," Pkero commented.
"So? At least we've found him and now we can get to work. Anyways how did you get that lady to get going to quickly?" Meilin whispered curiously to Pkero.
"All I did was say 'Hi' and then she ran off," Pkero remarked.
"Well, it got us up to here didn't it, so we didn't do so bad," Meilin said basically thanking Pkero in a way.
"You didn't do so bad with what?" Kenshin asked Meilin suspiciously.
"Uh, I mean,' Meilin panicked for a quick second before saying, "I didn't do so badly kicking those bad men's butts!"
"Oh, well you did do a good job for a young girl your size," Kenshin complimented.
"Arigato," Meilin replied.
"Well, we're here," Kenshin said stopping at a huge fence.
Meilin stared at the fence, 'This is a big place, and I mean it's only just the Fence!' She thought.
"Why don't we go inside? I'll fix you something to eat," Kenshin offered as he walked inside the fence, walking towards the steps of the shrine.
"Yes, that would be great!" Meilin quickly accepted the offer, she was hungrier than she had realized. Meilin began to walk towards the big shrine when she felt a chill.
"What was that?" Meilin asked herself.
"Good, then you felt it too," Pkero said, her head popping out of the book bag once more, "A Moon Card, one must be nearby. We better get ready it could pop out at any moment."
Pkero crawled back into the book bag. Meilin nodded her head in agreement, and began to walk up the stairs to the big shrine. Kenshin was waiting for her, he slid the door open when she had reach the top of the stairs, and followed her once she walked inside.

"Well, let's see you handle all three of us little girl!" One of the men said hastily.
Meilin did three back flips and landed skillfully into her fighting position. She motioned her hand 'to bring it on.' The three men charged at her, each of them throwing punches, but every punch they threw Meilin blocked it.
The three men, backed up to catch their breath, "What's wrong? Is this little girl kicking your big butts?" Meilin taunted them with a grin on her face.
Meilin just noticed, that the big man she had knocked down was gone, she looked around and all of a sudden she felt something hit her face. She fell down, and looked up and saw the man she thought she had K.O.ed earlier.
"What's wrong, you look like you've seen a ghost," the man mocked.
Meilin stood up and wiped the dirt off her face and stood up, "Naw, I didn't see a ghost, just the ugliest face on Earth."
The man growled, "Get HER!" The three other men ran towards her. Meilin jumped up and landed on one guy's face and jumped up on a stone fenced. Meilin looked around and saw the woman she had saved earlier had escaped.
"Good," Meilin grinned. 'Pkero must have gotten her out of here.'
"What are you grinning for stupid girl?" The man said as he turned around and also noticed that the woman was gone, "You stupid little bitch, you let that woman get away!!"
Meilin lifted her hands and shook her head, "Well, that was part of the plan," she beamed, "Do you want to know the rest of the plan?"
"Why not?" the man answered.
"It's to kick your butt!" Meilin jumped into the air and kicked the big man down, "the bigger they are, the harder they fall."
One of the other men, tried to kick Meilin but she dodged and punched him in the stomach. She took a few steps back, and waited for the other two men to come after her. They were nowhere in site.
"Where did they go?" Meilin looked around.
"Behind you!" Pkero yelled out as she popped out of a tree.
Meilin turned around, but not fast enough, the two men grabbed Meilin's arms and held them behind her back.
'Oh no, I got to help her,' Pkero panicked, than a slithery black shadow crept across the ground but as quickly as it had came it disappeared just as fast.
"I wonder if that was." Pkero was interrupted by a piercing scream. Pkero looked back down towards Meilin. Meilin was getting the living hell punched out of her by the big man she had knocked down earlier.
"Oh no, I need to help her," Pkero said as she flew out of the tree.
"So where are your little smart comments now?" the big man asked pausing his continuous punches.
Meilin coughed up a few drops of blood and then looked into the eyes of the big man and grinned, "No one needs to make a comment about a face like yours,"
The man grew a big scowl across his face, "For that little comment, it will be the last thing you ever say." The man drew his fist back; Meilin closed her eyes to become mentally prepared for the punch.
Nothing had happen in the few seconds that had past, all of a sudden Meilin heard a 'gasp' and then a 'thud'. When Meilin opened her eyes she saw a man with long red hair tied back into ponytail, on the left side of his face was a cross like scar.
Meilin's cheeks flushed with red, 'This must be the great swordsmen Kenshin!' she thought to herself. Meilin looked at the fallen man, he was knocked out for good.
"I see you guys have a thing for helpless young women," the young red haired man questioned the three men, holding down Meilin. The men let go of Meilin, and started to gang up on the red haired man.
"And who do you think you are, short man?" One of the men asked the red head.
"I believe I'm known as Himura Kenshin, and you men are?" Kenshin asked the men with a smirk on his face. The men's faces quickly changed from grins, into faces of fear.
"Oh, uh, I think we have some appointment we need to go to," one of the men stuttered stupidly. They grabbed their fallen friend and ran for their lives dragging their friend not too far behind.
Kenshin started to laugh as he watched the men run. Meilin stared at him for a moment, until she felt some blood trickling down the side of her mouth; she wiped the side of her mouth with her hand. Kenshin turned back to the attention of the young girl he had rescued. Meilin blushed, she knew the sight he saw. She was dirty and had drips of blood all over her new kimono.
"Are you alright?" Kenshin asked Meilin, "I mean, I can see you're not okay, but as far as any broken bones is concerned."
Meilin looked around to see if Pkero was around, she saw her crawling into her book bag that was near a tree, she turned her attention back to Kenshin, "No, I think I'm fine. How did you know I was here?" Meilin asked.
"This lady ran to my door and asked me to help a young girl that had help her escape, she didn't leave her name but she did tell me where to find you," Kenshin said with a smile. Meilin smiled back.
"So where are your parents?" Kenshin asked.
"Oh, I'm going to Osaka to visit my, uh, um, cousin, yeah my cousin," Meilin lied.
"Oh, well do you have any place to stay?" Kenshin asked curiously.
"Uh actually, I don't have a place to stay and I don't have much money," Meilin informed Kenshin.
"Well, you can stay at my place," Kenshin offered, "I wouldn't want you to get in any more trouble,"
Meilin bowed a little, "Arigato Kenshin, I just have to get my stuff," Meilin pointed to her book bag next to the tree. Kenshin nodded.
Meilin ran over to the tree and slung her book bag over her shoulder. Kenshin looked strangely at her.
Meilin felt a ripple of nervousness run through her body, "Nani?"
"Your bag," Kenshin pointed, "It looks different from all of the other bags that I've seen,"
"Oh, it's a fad were I come from," Meilin laughed nervously.
"What's a fad?" Kenshin asked.
'Oh yeah, the word "fad" isn't used in his time yet, I need to use better vocabulary,' Meilin contemplated.
"Oh, I mean a look. It's a new look from where I come from," Meilin said walking up to him.
"Oh alright let's be on our way," Kenshin said walking off with Meilin not walking too far behind.
"It'll only take us a few minutes to get there," Kenshin said as he turned a corner.
"Oh all right," Meilin smiled.
'Wow, I'm actually meeting a famous person!' Meilin thought excitedly. Some movement in her book bag interrupted Meilin's thoughts.
Pkero's head popped out of the book bag, Meilin looked over to Kenshin to make sure he wasn't looking when she said to Pkero, "Pkero, look who I found!"
"I can see that, but technically you didn't find him that lady did," Pkero commented.
"So? At least we've found him and now we can get to work. Anyways how did you get that lady to get going to quickly?" Meilin whispered curiously to Pkero.
"All I did was say 'Hi' and then she ran off," Pkero remarked.
"Well, it got us up to here didn't it, so we didn't do so bad," Meilin said basically thanking Pkero in a way.
"You didn't do so bad with what?" Kenshin asked Meilin suspiciously.
"Uh, I mean,' Meilin panicked for a quick second before saying, "I didn't do so badly kicking those bad men's butts!"
"Oh, well you did do a good job for a young girl your size," Kenshin complimented.
"Arigato," Meilin replied.
"Well, we're here," Kenshin said stopping at a huge fence.
Meilin stared at the fence, 'This is a big place, and I mean it's only just the Fence!' She thought.
"Why don't we go inside? I'll fix you something to eat," Kenshin offered as he walked inside the fence, walking towards the steps of the shrine.
"Yes, that would be great!" Meilin quickly accepted the offer, she was hungrier than she had realized. Meilin began to walk towards the big shrine when she felt a chill.
"What was that?" Meilin asked herself.
"Good, then you felt it too," Pkero said, her head popping out of the book bag once more, "A Moon Card, one must be nearby. We better get ready it could pop out at any moment."
Pkero crawled back into the book bag. Meilin nodded her head in agreement, and began to walk up the stairs to the big shrine. Kenshin was waiting for her, he slid the door open when she had reach the top of the stairs, and followed her once she walked inside.
