Why?What?Shutup- Well that wouldn't be Kenshin like now would it?
Yue Fei- Kenshin wouldn't let him. Besides, Kansuke isn't worth going to jail for like Aoshi would if he killed him.
The last samurai- I am glad you love it.
spirit demon- I don't use guns in my Kenshin stories often. Not to mention I want Kansuke out of my story now. He wasn't supposed to be a humongo character.
Mia, Princess of Eternity-Aoshi be MINE!! You can have Deon. At the end of this chapter is a description of the REAL Deon. The one in this story is more realistic than the original. Basically it is just his name.
Lady Zhen Ji- Haha Kansuke be ripped apart miserably and painfully. DIE DIE!!
Chi- Thank you vury much.
Piper- Not yet.
Suki-This soon enough?
pnaixrose- I haven't exactly figured that out yet. Next chappie though, it will happpen.
If I was the one fighting Kansuke, he'd be dead.
Kenshin's eyes grew wide. "What makes you hate him that much? What did he do to you?"
"Well… we became good friends because…well, he dated my sister." Deon looked down at his hands nervously. "He told me how much he hated rape and things like that so I actually learned to trust him. Well I had made a big mistake but didn't learn that until today. A few days after one of my sister's dates with him they broke up and I was banned from even talking to him. I didn't know why, though." Tears forced their way down his face.
"Do you think he…"
Deon nodded sorrowfully. "So after finding out that he had done anything like that, I had to leave before I went to jail for murder. That piece of trash isn't worth being imprisoned for."
Kenshin slightly smirked, then noticed that Aoshi had left.

"Have you told him yet Misao?" Kaoru asked after things in the Aoiya had calmed down a bit.
"What would be the point? I know he doesn't feel the same." She turned her head down.
"The point is that you always tell the one you love everything. Besides you never know."
"Maybe."
"So does that mean you're going to tell him?"
"It means 'maybe.'" Misao stood up and headed towards the door. "What do you want for lunch?"
Sanosuke perked up at the sound of the word "food." "Mmm…some miso soup sounds good." He said as he rambled on about what else sounded good to him.
"Honestly Sano, don't you ever talk about anything besides food?" Megumi asked.
"I talk about you." He answered seductively, a small purr in his voice.
"You perv."
!#$!#$!#$!#$!#$!#$!#$!#$!#$!#$!#$!#$!#$!#$#$#
Aoshi made his way back to the Aoiya, knowing it wasn't his place to punish Kansuke for what he'd done to Deon's sister as well. It would put down Deon. It would be as if he was showing that Deon wouldn't hurt him but Aoshi could easily.
As he slid the door to the Aoiya open gently, the warm scent of miso soup greeted him. 'Omasu must be-' His thoughts were interrupted by Omasu herself coming out of her room groggily. "Are you just now waking up?" He asked curiously.
"It was a long night. Are the others up?"
"I don't think so." Aoshi shrugged and went to his room.
Once there he noticed blood from Kansuke's busted lip on his jacket. He pulled it off and laid it in the corner neatly. He quickly picked up what he had left from the previous night's tea and decided that a bath would do him some good.
(A/N: This is for all the fan girls.)
Aoshi got a warm bath prepared and tested the water with his hand, making sure it was just right. He pulled off his black shirt revealing his muscular upper torso. Then his pants were pulled down below his long legs.
After becoming completely undressed he dipped himself slowly into the steamy hot liquid, the steam causing his wet hair to cling to his sweaty face.
Soon after relaxing in the bath his mind wandered over memories of his past, and he soon noticed that the most precious ones were of Misao. At that point the didn't know what she was doing to him or how, but at the same time he really didn't hate it.
The feelings which were consuming him slowly were very new to him. Every time he was with her, it was like… like his past didn't matter. Of course he knew that, to her, it didn't, but for him there has always been something he regretted. But something about her, that measly barely- developed girl, made everything better.
Aoshi placed a wet hand upon his bare chest, feeling his heart speed up as he thought about her. Could he, in fact, be falling in love with Misao? Is it possible that he already has and he is just now realizing it? Is it really possible for him to fall in love at all? But the big question pounding in his head was 'Does she love me?'
!#!#$!#$!##$$#!$#!$!$!#$!#$#$#$!#$!#$!$!#$#$#$!#$!#$!
Kenshin finished up his talk with Deon, knowing Aoshi probably just went back to the Aoiya, so he went back as well.
The smell of Misao's cooking greeted him as well as Kenshin entered the Aoiya. "Misao-Chan? Kaoru? Sano?" Kenshin looked around. "Where is everyone?"
"In the dining area Kenshin!" Replied Kaoru's sweet voice.
As Kenshin entered, joining the others, Sanosuke waved at him. "So where's Mr. Tall dark and scary?"
"You mean Aoshi isn't here?" Kenshin raised a brow.
Omasu looked at them. "I believe he went to take a bath."
Misao looked down at her soup. "I didn't here him come in." She said, as if she was guilty of something.
"Is something wrong?" Omasu asked.
"Oh uh… it's nothing!" She exclaimed, perking back up. "Oh Yahiko, you seem to be quiet this visit. Whatcha thinking 'bout?"
Yahiko blushed furiously. "Uh…nothing!"
Kaoru smirked. "I bet he's thinking about his beloved Tsubame." She said with googly eyes and making smooching noises.
Misao stood up from the table. "I think I am going to take a walk. Would you like to come Kaoru-dono?"
Kaoru took the hint. "Sure."
Once outside Kaoru laid a hand on Misao's shoulder and asked nicely, "What did you want to talk about?"
"I…I just needed your advice on something." She said, hanging her head low so as to hide the cherry blush creeping on her face.
"On what?" Kaoru tried to contain a giggle at Misao's actions.
"I…I want to know how to confess to Aoshi-sama."
Description of Original Deon- He is the height of Aoshi and has dark morbid black hair that spikes up, not DBZ style, more like.......hmm... Lord Balmung's from .Hack/Legend of the Twilight Bracelet. Anyways, he has large feathery black wings and tight black pants. He also has a dark blue jacket that covers up a black t-shirt that clings to his upper torso. His eyes are dark blue. He is supposed to be the God of Darkness. but the one in this story is the same except no wings. Hope ya like 'em!
