Chapter 8 ~
**********
"Where is she?," Kenshin thought worriedly but his thought were soon cut off when he stopped in front of the lake.
There she was , undressed playing with those clear cold water. He stood rooted to his spot with pink cheeks. She turn around and face him in a surprised expression.
Then , she screamed.
"Turn around , Kenshin" she yelled angrily.
Kenshin turned away immediately blushing furiously. Kaoru glared at his back while she got dressed.
After she got dressed , she walk behind him and knock on his head hardly. She was still blushign like mad.
"I'm sorry I was just worried I thought you lost," he murmured his apology while still as red as a tomato.
"Apology not accepted," she said with gritted teeth and left.
**********
About an hour later , Kenshin were walking behind Kaoru following her down the busy street. She was still angry with the morning incident and had not spoken to him since then.
He sigh. She walked ahead of him with steam coming out from her ears.
"That baka how dare he peep on me," she thought angrily while blushing.
Just then , she heard the cries of a child nearby. She turned the corner and walked into the other street. There she was a little girl around the age of 6 crying.
On the other side , Kenshin was having a hard time following her. The street was so crowded and he was guiding a horse which harden his journey. Kaoru was lost from his sight.
He pushed through the crowd with gritted teeth trying to look for her. Unbeknownst to him , Kaoru had turned the corner but he was still walking forward.
"Why are you crying?," she asked gently as she crouched down so she was on the same level as the little girl was.
"I lost my mommy," she murmured as more tears fell from her red puffy eyes.
"Well now stop crying we'll look for your mommy together okay?," Kaoru asked softly with a smile.
The little girl nodded with a smile as she rub away her tears.
So , Kaoru took hold of the little girl hand and lead her away.
**********
"Shit! Where did she go?," Kenshin cursed inwardly as he was still pushing through the crowd..
Soon , he reached the end of the street but there was still no sign of Kaoru.
On the other side , Kaoru was walking with the little girl looking for a woman around 28 with straight long hair and a green dress.
It was almost sunset.
"Look is that your mommy?," Kaoru asked as she pointed towards a green dressed lady.
"Yes," she replied just before she ran off towards her mother.
"Yuri where have you been? I was looking for you," the woman said with teary eyes as she hugged her daughter.
Kaoru walked towards them with a smile. How she envied her for having a mother.
"Mommy this nice lady helped me," Yuri said with a smile as she tugged on Kaoru's hand.
"Thank you so much how can I ever repay you?," The woman asked with a smile.
"No it's okay I have to get going now bye," Kaoru replied with a smile as she hugged Yuri and left with a wave.
**********
The sun was setting now. Kaoru was wondering down the street alone.
"There seems to be something that I was forgetting what was it?,"she thought inwardly with a frown.
She stopped on her track immediately as she realized she had lost Kenshin. She turned around and began walking back towards the street earlier.
She ran and ran until she reached the street but there was no sign of Kenshin. Most of the shops and restaurant had close since it was getting dark.
"How could I have been so stupid?," she cursed herself out loud.
Then the worst came it started to rain heavily. She ran and ran again looking for shelter.
She stopped outside a restaurant with wet clothes and hair. She was shivering from the cold. She knock hesitantly on the door.
Minutes later , the door opened to reveal a beautiful lady around the age of 30. She was wearing a red dress which reveals her shoulder with red lips and elaborate hairstyle.
"Young lady what are you doing here?," she asked with a confuse expression.
"I was wondering if I could stay for the night I had lost sight of my companion," Kaoru explained just before she fainted.
The lady was shocked and quickly ordered for her servants to bring her in.
**********
"Kaoru," Kenshin called out her name hoping she was nearby as he wondered down the street not caring for the weather.
Soon , around 30 guards appeared and bow before him. In the middle of them all , stood Sano.
"Sano , why are you here?," he asked with a glare.
"You see Kenshin the ministers were worried for your safety so..," he was cut off.
"So you were asked to followed me," he finished it off for him.
Sano smile sheepishly as he stood beside Kenshin.
A few guards shielded Kenshin with a few umbrella.
"Kaoru's lost," Kenshin said in a voice no higher than a whisper.
"I know but I was not suppose to appeared but since it was getting late and jouchan was still missing I have decided to break the orders," Sano explained.
Kenshin nodded grimly.
"Guards go look for Lady Kaoru. She's still out here in the rain. This is an order," Sano commanded them as he and Kenshin walked towards the carriage nearby.
**********
The next morning , Kaoru awoke with a spinning head. She tried to sit up but as she was still weak she fell back down with a thud.
"I see you're awake," the lady from yesterday said with a smile as she sat down on a chair beside the bed.
"Thank you for allowing me to stay for the night I need to go now," she said weakly as she sat up on her bed.
"No you're still weak you have a fever just rest," the lady said with a frown.
"But.," Kaoru protested.
"No but," she replied sternly as she pushed her down gently on the bed.
Kaoru murmured her thanks and drifted off into a deep sleep.
The woman smirked and left the room.
**********
That night , Kaoru got down from the bed and got dressed into a dress that had been given to her by Madam Yin the lady that had saved her yesterday.
"I need to look for Kenshin or he'll get worried," she thought inwardly as she walk out of her room.
She was dressed in a light yellow dress with a dark green sash. It was sleeveless with another layer of transparent purple outer coat that reached her ankle. It had small silver flowers on the sleeves.
"I thought woman from this world was not supposed to reveal their arms," she said to herself fingering the transparent fabric.
She walked along the corridor and looked down towards the middle of the restaurant which was located downstairs. She gasped.
There were a lot of young women laughing and drinking with their customers. Some were even half undressed.
She soon realized what this restaurant actually was. It was a whorehouse. That was why Madam Yin was always in revealing clothes.
A hand on her shoulder make her jumped up in surprised.
"Kaoru," Madam Yin greeted her with an evil smile.
Kaoru turned around and offered her a forced smile.
"Madam Yin thanks for your help I need to go," Kaoru said while trembling slightly.
She was almost to the stairs when someone caught her arms roughly pulling her back towards her room.
"Let me go," she yelled as she started kicking them.
They pushed her into her room and closed the door. All that was left in the room was a few man that she assumed was guards , Madam Yin and her.
"Why?," Kaoru asked with hands that were trembling with anger.
"You owed me therefore you have to work for me to repay your debt," she said with a laugh.
"I'll never work for you," she yelled angrily.
"Oh yes you will I have the contract," she said with a smirk.
"No. I never signed any contract," Kaoru protested.
"Yes you will now," she said just before the guards grab her.
One of the guards took out a knife and cut her thumb so that a few drop of bloods appeared. She winced as she tried to get out of their hold but in vain they were too strong for her.
Madam Yin approached her and place her thumb on the piece of contract so that her fingerprint was printed there.
Then , the guards release her as she slide to the floor with wide teary eyes.
"Now you are mine," Madam Yin said with an evil smile and left the room.
