A Trip To Remember
Chapter one: A New Place, A New Time, A New Arrival
Disclaimer: sadly I don't own G-Gundam or Rurouni Kenshin. But if I did everyone would have a good home ^_^
"ORO!?" cried Kenshin at the top of his lungs.
The two near him looked to each other again, this time it was Domon's turn to fix things. "Hay just relax, everything will be ok" said the fighter in the calmest voice he could muster.
Kenshin quickly got to his feet "You're right" he said in an all-to-calm voice. He walked slowly to where his sakabatou lay then took a fighting stance exactly the way he had in the hall.
"What are you doing!?" cried Rain also getting to her feet "You can't fight!! your still injured and need to rest!!". Domon then had to grab his wife to keep her from dragging the young man before them to a sick bed.
"Simple" he said "I'm going back through that thing the exact way I came". With that he charged at the disturbance, with such speed that the couple had ever seen.
The space disappeared between the two. The samurai swung his sword only to make contact with sold instead of falling trough like he had hoped. An electric charge swept though his sakabatou, reaching Kenshin and sending him flying backwards, landing in the place he lay before.
"Are you alright Kenshin?" asked Rain, he once again sat up more slowly then before looking down. "Yeah I'm fine" all he did was look down at his leg and sakabatou in hand.
"Well I guess we should turn this thing off…" started the only female there. "NO!" came the sudden shout that made the other two jump. "But why not?" asked the fighter. "There's still a chance that someone from my time will be brave and come here" the rurouni smiled in a saddened way, he finally looked up "Would you condemn me to living here alone without every one I've ever cared about?". 'Hopefully Miss Kaoru's bravery will lead her here… I swear if I ever see her again I'll tell her how I feel, that I will'.
"Alright you win" said the woman of the group gently "We should stay here since someone could come through at anytime".

The space disappeared between the two. The samurai swung his sword only to make contact with sold instead of falling trough like he had hoped. An electric charge swept though his sakabatou, reaching Kenshin and sending him flying backwards, landing in the place he lay before.
Kaoru sat up from her bed abruptly 'What was that?', she closed her again to review the dream "Kenshin!" the woman breathed "I'm sure that was something that happened to Kenshin!! That means he's alive!!" she cried out for joy. Then quickly covered her mouth as not to wake anyone.
***
A few hours after Kaoru's awakence from the dream she stood in the kitchen preparing breakfast.
A pare of foot steeps drew near "Hey ugly!" cried Yahiko, Kaoru listlessly turned to face her student. "Oh don't tell me we have to eat your louse cooking for breakfast?". The woman nodded "Still no word from Kenshin" she paused "I hope he's alright" images from her dream flashed before her eyes.
"Hey ugly!! Your burning the food" that cry broke Kaoru out from her trance. "Damnit!" said Kaoru as she started to blow at the fire. "Yahiko! Go get some water"

Domon and Rain sat at a table that had been set up while Kenshin was starting too cook just a few feet away.
Kenshin himself took off the ribbon from Kaoru reviling a large gash on his left hand running from the joint of his thumb to the top of his pointer finger almost grazing the nail. He held the ribbon in his good hand and took a deep breath. 'This might be the last time I ever smell Miss Kaoru's sent that it is'. Before any tears could spring to his eyes the ribbon was slipped inside of his gi.
Everything was silent aside from the sounds that the food made for quiet some time until. Suddenly there was loud shout of "HEY NEO JAPAN HOW YA BEEN??".
The trio looked behind them to see Chibodee Crocket coming through tree and bushes standing atop his core lander.
Domon stood to greet his friend "Chibodee!" he smiled "Long time no see". Chibodee hopped off the lander and sat down next to Rain "And just how has the lady been?" he said putting an arm around her shoulders.
Rain repressed a laugh and tired to scowl "Domon and I have been married for quiet some time now" she took his arm off her and smiled "Don't you think you should stop trying to get dates?". The new comer shrugged "One can never be too persistent".
"Don't be so sure" said Domon trying to look tough "If you go to far I'm afraid I'll be forced to hurt you". Chibodee raised his hands "Ok, ok I can take a hint and will keep my hands off your woman".
Kenshin continued to do what he was doing ignoring the people around him 'Reminds me of life at the dojo, that it does' he thought a small smile creeping on his face. 'And that contraption came in on, its nothing like a horse or anything else I've ever seen before'.
He continued to sit there obliviously cooking until a hand found its way to his shoulder. "And just who is this young fella here?" asked Chibodee patting Kenshin on the back, he then looked the rurouni in the face "A relative of George's maybe".
"No" said Kenshin lightly "I don't know who 'George' is" he smiled and looked in the face of Chibodee "My name is Kenshin Himura, that it is". The American was taken aback by the niceness of the man in front of him "Are you sure you're a friend of Domon's". Chibodee then put an arm around Kenshin and led him away from his cooking "Since you seam way too nice to be hanging around a tough guy like Domon, and what's with the old style get-up?".
Kenshin blinked a few times "I just met Domon, someone made that machine that brought me from 1880 to here" he pointed to the disturbance. "There's one exactly like that where I live, the only difference is the one in my time you can fall right through it, that you can" he smiled.
Chibodee was now horrified by the rurouni, he was just about to speak when they both smelled smoke. Quickly Kenshin rushed back and continued with what he was doing before Chibodee came over.

Yahiko, Sano, and Kaoru crowded the burnt plates of what was s'post to be a meal.
"Geeze little missy" commented Sano, he poked at some of the charred remains with a chop stick "This is more burnt the usual, I mean" he pick up a extremely burnt something "I can't even tell what this was". He then looked kind "You must be really worried about Kenshin".
"God ugly, I wonder how many more things you can screw up?" laughed Yahiko, which earned him a rather hard bop on the head. "Be easy on her kid!! Besides I saw you trip over your bokken this morning, so don't get on Kaoru's case".
The two continued to fight while Kaoru just sat and starred. "Ken…shin where are you" she breathed. The only female then stood and left "Remember" she started getting the attention of the fighting ones "Stay out of the hall way with the spare rooms in it… that's where Kenshin disappeared". With that she left the room.

It had been a few hours since Kaoru's charred food was served.
Yahiko wandered around the dojo, he turned a corner only to see the disturbance that Kaoru had warned them about earlier. The boy snorted "That thing doesn't look like it could beat Kenshin, let alone capture him". He then drew his bokken from his back then held it in front of him in a fighting stance. "I bet I can bead it and bring Kenshin back here to save us from stupid ugly's cooking".
With that Yahiko charged at the odd thing. But just like what happened to the rurouni happened to the boy as well. Yahiko screamed as he too fell through the portal.

Rain Domon and Chibodee sat at the table, it had been hours there as well. While Kenshin sat just a little ways behind the group, his sakabatou against his shoulder and ribbon in hand.
Suddenly the machine began to beep "What's that mean?" asked both Chibodee and Kenshin at the same time. Rain looked towards the disturbance "It means someone from 1880 has just entered the portal". The rurouni looked towards it 'Miss Kaoru!'. He then ran forward placing himself across from the portal.
Just a few seconds later Yahiko was thrown through and right into Kenshin. The two flew back and hit the ground not as hard as Kenshin had.
The rurouni looked into his lap "Yahiko?!" he cried. He then held the boy up to look at him "What are you doing here?". Yahiko opened his eyes and looked at the one hold him. "KENSHIN!" he cried tackling the man "Oro". "Your alive!!" he then jumped to his feet Kenshin getting up with him, then started to pull the man towards the portal. "Now we can go back to the dojo and you can save us from Kaoru's cooking" Yahiko laughed.
But Kenshin stopped both of them. "We can't" he said solemnly. The boy tilted his head in confusion. "That portal only goes one way" he said in a serous tone. The rurouni walked over and picked up a stick, then threw it at the portal. It hit with the precession of a small knife then designated.
Yahiko gulped, "Glad you stopped me". Kenshin smiled "I'm glad you came, that I am". He then walked the boy over to where the others sat "Yahiko this is Domon Rain and Chibodee, everyone this is Yahiko" said the innocent acting one as he gestured to each person.
The boy then sat down at the table, "Now" Kenshin said "How's everyone at home?". 'More like how's Miss Kaoru' he thought. "Sano is still the same old freeloader, but he's defending ugly, and I can't make her mad. Not to mention her cooking almost poisoned us. you couldn't even tell what it was!"
Kenshin smiled lightly "You shouldn't call Miss Kaoru 'Ugly' anymore" Yahiko once again tilted his head in confusion. The rurouni then gave young one a hug "Because one needs to respect the dead" whispered Kenshin trying to hide his voice.
Yahiko's eyes widened "You mean her and… everyone is… gone?" Kenshin nodded. "The only way we'll ever see them again is if they go though the portal… but since two people have already been lost to it I doubt Sano or Miss Kaoru will even go near the hall".
Yahiko looked crest fallen, Rain patted him on the head "It'll be ok"
