It was a dark and misty night on which on one in their right mind would really be out unless they thought they were safe or could handle anything. The moon was supposedly full but the clouds covered it and the air was warm and smelled of jasmine.
It was a night where anything could happen where lives could change at anytime.
Just a normal night like any other but something was in the air, and a person was in that town that had not been for a long time.
In a local restaurant everything was going on as normal as normal could be.
Drunken men stood on tables singing stories about undergarments and apples, women gossiped, and young couple ate dinner together and blushed every time they brushed hands
a figure entered the front door adorning a black cloak.
It was completely covering the body. Only the sound of footsteps could let you know that this thing was not floating with the graceful steps it took.
The figure walked over to and unoccupied table next to the fireplace and stripped themselves of the cloak.
It was a young woman.
She was dressed not like a young lady should be but then again people around here were normally wearing fighting clothes
Her shirt was the color of cream and her pants that of a clear sky on a nice warm spring day.
Her hair was that of midnight raven locks that shone a blue color from the light from the fireplace.
It was tied back high in a pony tail her unruly bangs hung in her face drawing attention to her eyes. Her cold and blue eyes that showed no emotions at times and then there was a flicker of something there that you had to wait to catch.
A sword shut tight in its sheath hung off of her belt.
the other customers noticed it but none really gave any second looks they were use to it.
Running her hands over her outfit she brushed off some extra dirt that had gotten kicked up from her walking in the street.
Taking a seat a waitress came up to take her order.
She just dismissed her she was here for a reason not to just lounge about,
Then the one she was waiting for approached.
His name, Aoshi Shinomori, the leader of the obiwiban group.
He was dressed in a dark blue ninja suit with a trench coat thrown over it his double swords in his hand.
His dark blue hair hung over his cold, impassive, emotionless eyes.
Taking a seat across from her he leaned his swords against the wall not that far out of his reach.
He smirked at him.
She just let out a laugh.
"So Kamiya its been a while." He said with a sigh.
"I told you to stop calling me Kamiya." She all but practically yelled.
"I was your master a while back don't forget it." He said a smirk placing itself on his handsome face.
"Exactly a while back." She said meeting his eyes with a smile on her face.
"So what are you doing back here?"
"business..." Kaoru replied, brushing a strand of hair from her face.
"what i don't get any other explanations?" Aoshi said with a laugh in his voice.
"well i just got done learning a new technique form my latest master."
"You still haven't figured out who is signing you up for these things or paying for them do you?"
"Nope." She said with a smile on her face. "But I am here on a job." Her smile widened.
"Alone?"
"No I am supposed to have a partner."
"What is your job exactly."
"Protecting some woman known as Lady Tokio, with some man named Saitou." Kaoru said while shrugging.
"Hm..." Aoshi said his eyes closing in thought.
"What?"
"Saitou. You have heard of him haven't you?" Aoshi's eyes opened and stared into kaoru's deep midnight blue ones.
"No what should I know about my so called knew partner."
"His name is Saitou Hajime. And the Miburo Wolf."
"What? My new partner is the miburo wolf?! oh great!!"
"Just try to stay away from him and he probably won't kill you." Aoshi said with a laugh the smirking returning upon his cold exterior.
"But...how can I accomplish that we need to "work" together. I could probably last in a fight with him right?" Kaoru asked with some hope in her eyes.
"You have had much learning experience but yet you are nowhere near his level."
"Shit!" Kaoru yelled slamming her hands down on the table drawing attention to her self from the other customers around her. Sitting back down she then glared at those around her sending them a clear message. "Back off now"
"I know what you mean he's up there with the Battousai."
"Have you heard any latest news on the battousai?"
"no, nothing other then he's close. and getting closer every night. and that he has a new scar instead of just one slash he has a crossed shaped scar now." Aoshi said playing with his jacket.
"I wonder who could get close enough to hitokiri battousai to give him a scar like that." Kaoru replied back.
"Well the way that the revolution is working we might just yet."
And that's all I can think of right now.
