Chapter 9 ~
**********
"Kenshin you need to eat," Sano said with a sigh.
They had been staying in a nearby inn while the guards were out searching for Kaoru. It's been a day and it was still raining out there.
Kenshin simply ignored Sano while continue gazing out the balcony looking for any sight of Kaoru.
"I'm going out to look for her," Kenshin said in a low tone as he started walking towards the door.
"No you're not. It's raining heavily out there," Sano said with a frown.
Kenshin ignored him again and continue walking out of the room. Just then , something hard came knocking him unconscious.
"Sorry man if I don't do that , you'll get sick," Sano said as he picked him up and headed back to the room.
**********
Meanwhile , Kaoru was burning up with fever from the previous day. Madam Yin was very mad at this.
"She was suppose to serve men tonight," she thought angrily.
Kaoru was lying on the bed face flushed. She kept muttering Kenshin's name in her sleep.
"Damn very well no matter what happened , she'll be serving men tonight," she said to no one in particular.
*********
It was almost sunset that Kenshin woke up.
He sat up on the bed while clutching on his painful neck. Sano was standing by the door looking at him grimly.
"You bastard how dare you do this I have to find Kaoru," Kenshin yelled angrily.
"I'm sorry pal I have the responsibility to care for your health," Sano replied with a sad tone.
"Responsibility? I have the responsibility to look for her too I promise her that I'll protect her no matter what happen," Kenshin said in a very low tone.
**flashback**
"I promise you that I'll protect you no matter what happen," Kenshin whispered while hugging Kaoru.
"As long as you're by my side , I'll be fine," Kaoru replied with a smile.
**end of flashback**
"Perhaps you're right I was too selfish," Sano replied as he shook his head.
"I'll be going now," Kenshin said in a tone that make it impossible to say no.
**********
"I'm not a whore!," Kaoru said in a very angry tone while sitting on the bed clutching on her burnign forehead.
"I don't care what you think you're mine now," Madam Yin said with a smirked as she ordered servants to dressed Kaoru for the night.
No matter how much Kaoru tried to protest , she was in no condition to fight back. She was still so weak from the fever and she had never had anything for breakfast yet. She was beginning to wonder if they had starved her purposely.
**********
Kenshin was walking on the street with rain pouring down heavily on him. He kept calling for Kaoru's name hopping she was nearby.
"Damn it! where is she?," he yelled angrily as he punched his fist on the wall on the street.
"Calm down Kenshin Let's search house by house," Sano suggested.
*********
It was night now and Kaoru was dragged out of her room to the balcony where many men were staring up at her with evil smiles.
She was dressed in dark blue tube with a long skirt that reach her ankle with another layer of seen through white robe. She was forced on some makeup too and half her hair was tied up while the others left cascaded down her back.
"Now this is out new server name Shang," Madam Yin introduced her to the crowd.
Kaoru gasped at her new name.
"She'll be serving the one who paid the most for her tonight," she continue on with a smirked.
"No!!," Kaoru yelled angrily just before she was dragged back into her room by the guards.
She was thrown back into her room and a clik was heard as the door locked.
She was starting to feel scared. How was she supposed to escaped right now? She was sick and there's so many guards out there.
From her room , shouting of prices could be heard. She cupped her ears as she started to cry.
**********
About an hour later , the worst came , it was time for her. A huge looking man came in. He was kind of drunk and had hairy arms making Kaoru trembled.
She backed away from him in instinct until she hit the wall.
"What are you afraid of?," the man said in a tone that made her shivered.
"Get away from me," she yelled.
The man approached her holding a cup of drink she assumed was wine while laughing.
"I said get away from me," she yelled again as she started to run away from him.
But a pair of strong arms came and grab her waist before she could move. Then , she found herself pinned to the bed with him on top of her.
"Let me go or else Kenshin'll kill you," she said with fear in her tone.
"Kenshin's who's that?," he said with a smirked just before he forced the wine into her mouth causing her to choked on the sudden action.
"Now you'll be mine without any trouble," he said as he started to pulled on her sash.
She was staring to get numb. She couldn't move a limb at all. How helpless she felt.
"Kenshin , where are you?," she sob as the man pulled her sash free tossing it away from her.
**********
"Kaoru," Kenshin yelled as he sensed her fear.
"She's in trouble I could hear her," Kenshin said with panicked tone.
Sano looked at him like he was crazy.
"Where are you Kaoru?," he yelled again.
Suddenly , his pendant started to glow with bright blue light.
"What the..," Sano trailed off.
"It's the pendant it's what connect both of us together it's showing me where she is," Kenshin said as he started to run towards where the lights guided him to.
In just about a second , he reached to a stop. He looked up towards the shop and gasped. Horror filled him whole as he read the signboard. It's a whore house.
Without a second thought , he burst in causing all presense to look at him in shock.
"Mister , would you like some company?," Madam Yin greeted him as a few whore started to grab at his hands.
"Get off me!," he yelled angry just before his ki pushed them away form him causing them to tumble onto the floor.
He then proceeded to where the light guided him. He ran up the stairs and stopped in front of a room. He burst into the room and what he saw made his ki grow into an impossible level.
**********
"Geez that Kenshin," Sano thought inwardly as he and the other guards rushed towards his direction. They were still on the street.
*********
There she was lying on the bed with a man on top of her trying to tear her clothes. She was crying as her shoulder and cleavage was exposed.
In just a flash , the man was throw off her onto the ground as he held Kaoru in a tight embrace holding her face close to his chest.
"Damn bastard how dare you touch her," he yelled angrily.
"Who the hell are you?," the man said with a mocking tone just as Madam Yin rushed into the room.
"Kenshin I thought that I was gonna..," she trailed off as she cried on his chest.
"Shhhh..it's okay now," he said with a gentle tone as he patted her hair.
"Just who the hell are you to burst into my shop and ruined my business?," Madam Yin said angrily.
"What do you mean by business? She's not your property," Kenshin said in a low tone causing them to shiver while he glared at them with burning amber.
"What's going on Madam Yin?," the man shouted at her.
"I have the contract," Madam Yin said with a confident tone.
"She forced me into it Kenshin , they even drug me so I wouldn't be able to move," Kaoru said with teary eyes.
This enraged him even more. How dare they treat her that way. How dare they hurt what was his.
"You'll be dead," he hissed angrily just before Sano with the other 30 guards rushed into the room causing them all to turned their attention towards them.
Sano looked at the couple on the bed , Kaoru who was in the arms of Kenshin crying as he took in all that had happened.
"Your Highness , sorry for the lateness," Sano said with a bow while the 30 guards surround the room.
Madam Yin and the man looked shock at this as they started to tremble.
"Your Highness?," they both whispered in disbelief.
"Arrest them," Kenshin commanded as he took off his cloak to wrap it around Kaoru.
The guards bowed and quickly do as he commanded.
Kenshin picked her up easily and headed outside.
**********
They reached the palace about an hour later. Both Madam Yin and the man was placed itno the dungeon first Kaoru was the first in his list.
He carried her into their chamber and laid her down on his bed. She had stopped crying but she still felt numb from the drug.
"Get the doctor," he ordered as he saw Misao rushing into his chamber.
Misao left with a bow without another word since she could see something was not right with Kaoru.
Kenshin sat on the bed beside her holding her hands wiping her face off the tears.
"I'm sorry," he whispered.
"Why?," Kaoru asked confused.
"It's all my fault I should have protected you," he replied sadly.
"No this is all my fault I should be able to protect myself," she said as tears fell from her eyes again.
He wiped them away with his thumb.
"Kenshin," Kaoru whispered.
Kenshin looked into her eyes as a response.
"Hug me," she said with a blush.
He stared at her dumfounded. She had never ask him for that before.
"Please I was scared," she said as her lips quivered.
Without a second thought , Kenshin brought her close to him with a sad smile.
