Author's Notes: Hello. I decided that since the last chapter was so
short, I'd update again on the same day. Buwhahahahaah. . .ahem. REVIEW
REVIEW REVIEW!!! My goal is for many reviews people. MANY!
Disclaimer: I don't own my muses, I just play with them. Nor do I own the song "As Time Goes By". Don't hurt me!!!
On with the story!!!. . . once more. . .
Chapter Five
Enishi smiled, "You? Hurt me?" he laughed. "How? You don't have any kind of weapon!!! You're a weakling, I can tell." He turned to Kaoru. "Geesh Kaoru. First that Sanosuke guy and now HIM!?"
Kenshin frowned and turned to Kaoru. "Sanosuke guy?" he asked.
Kaoru smiled weakly, "Eh heh. . . eh heh eh. . ."
Kenshin shook it away for later to question about. Right now he knew he had to deal with Enishi. He looked around the room for any kind of weapon. He looked at the fireplace. On top of it, was an old looking sword. He grinned.
Kenshin ran over to the fireplace, grabbed the sword, unsheathed it, and pointed it toward Enishi. "If you wish to taste the ground, feel free to attack." ((AN: Buwahahahaha ^_^))
[What in the world do you think you're DOING???] Rurouni screamed.
Battousai grinned. (Watch me.) It was then that he turned serious for once. (I can feel it. Somehow. . . I know that we know how to use this sword!!! Maybe that's what Battousai means. . .)
Rurouni looked at him with half way closed eyes, giving the expression that he didn't believe Battousai. [Yah right.]
(So what happened to you being all nice and goody goody?)
[ORO!]
Enishi laughed. "That worthless thing can't hurt me! Watch this!!!" He pulled out his own sword. It was a regular katana, Kenshin could tell.
Kaoru backed away from Enishi and toward Kenshin. "Uhhhh. . . Kenshin?" she stuttered.
"Don't worry Kaoru, we'll get out of this predicament." Kenshin smiled at her. He realized that the stereo was still playing.
"And when two lovers woo, They still say I love you, Of that you can rely! No matter what the future brings, as time goes by." The stereo sang out loud and clear.
Enishi looked disgusted. "Ew. I can't believe you listen to this stuff." He brought his sword up and put it right through the stereo. The last word you could hear was, "Goes-" Enishi smiled. "That's better."
Kaoru winced. 'My stereo!!!' her inside yelled, but she realized it wasn't that big a deal. As long as she and Kenshin got out of here safely, the stereo didn't matter.
Enishi pulled the sword out of the stereo and pointed it at Kenshin's heart; or where it should be. "I will kill you, you imposter!!! You don't deserve to be a human being, let at all live!!!"
Kenshin frowned. 'He doesn't realize that I'm a robot. . .He thinks I'm human. I wonder what would happen if I really could die. . .'
[If we really could die, we'd be DEAD de gozaru yo!!!] Rurouni sputtered, very scared of that katana Enishi was pointing towards him.
Battousai grunted. (Thank Kaoru we can't die though. . .Right?)
'I don't know. . .' Kenshin thought. 'But I mustn't let that Enishi freak get his hands on Kaoru.'
(So protective now, aren't we?)
[Oh look whose talking,] then he added quickly. [De gozaru yo.]
Enishi charged with a strong yell. "KYAAA!!!" he thrust the sword toward Kenshin. Kaoru moved right out of the way very quickly, but Kenshin didn't move.
Kenshin glared at Enishi, and Enishi's eyes widened when he saw Kenshin's eyes turn from violet to a hard core amber. 'But that doesn't matter,' Enishi thought, and he pushed his sword right through Kenshin's heart.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
* * * * * * *
Or so Enishi thought. He didn't see Kenshin move to quickly to the left, bring up his sword, yell in anger, and slice down to Enishi's head.
Kaoru watched in utmost horror. 'Oh no. . . I created a love-sick puppy as well as a killer machine!!!!'
Enishi dodged Kenshin's attack by moving to the right. He grinned that insane grin of his, but it was cut short when he felt a horrible pain on his shoulder and ear. His small rounded glasses fell to the floor, and bits and pieces of his snow-white hair fell to his shoulder. Kenshin had cut him.
Kenshin growled, deep in his throat, and was just about ready to kill Enishi. [No no no!!! You mustn't do that until later in the story!!!] Rurouni cried.
(Sorry, MOM!!! -_-; )
Kenshin sliced at Enishi once more, but Enishi saw it coming and jumped up.
Big mistake.
Enishi hit his head terribly onto the ceiling above him. Crying out in pain, Enishi fell to the floor, holding his head. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to knock him out.
Enishi growled. "Oooo. . . You'll pay for that!!!" he shouted. He got up to slice at the surprised Kenshin, when a voice stopped him dead in his tracks. It was a cold, slithery voice, coming from the door.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you." The voice said. Kenshin, Kaoru and Enishi turned to the door to see Misao hiding behind Aoshi, who had a katana in hand, pointing at Enishi.
Enishi frowned, "Hey no fair!!! Two against one!"
Aoshi didn't change his expression of nothingness. "Go away Yukishiro. You've no part in this story now. Unless you would like me to make you permanently out of the job?" a small tinge of humor was on Aoshi's face.
Enishi took that as a hint to make his escape. He turned to Kenshin and grinned, "We'll finish this battle some other time. But first answer me this, 'what's your name'?"
Kenshin looked at him. His eyes were grave as he spoke the words, as if he said them regretfully. "Himura. Kenshin Himura."
Enishi grinned more evilly. "Well then Mr. Kenshin Himura, I'll be seeing you around." With a wink Enishi ran out towards the open window, hopped out and ran out of sight.
Misao ran to Kaoru. "Oh Kaoru-chan!!! Are you alright? What did he do this time?"
Kaoru smiled at her childhood friend. "Don't worry Misao. Enishi didn't do anything to me. Kenshin saved me." She looked at Kenshin with a smile.
Kenshin would have blushed, but once more; he couldn't.
Aoshi sheathed his katana and walked over to Misao. "Misao. I must be going now. It's getting very dark outside, and something tells me I'll bump into Yukishiro on my way home."
Misao nodded. She gave Aoshi a peck on the lips. But of course, Aoshi still had to bend down a little so she could reach, even when she was up on her toes.
Aoshi nodded at Kaoru, and at Kenshin. "Goodnight Kaoru, Himura-san." He walked out of the door, into his car, and drove away.
Misao looked from Kaoru to Kenshin, from Kenshin to Kaoru, with wide eyes. Then she thought up a plan, "Well, it's late, better get going, see you in the morning!!!" she ran to her room and shut the door.
Kenshin turned to Kaoru. "I'm sorry about all that Kaoru. . ."
Kaoru stopped him, "It's alright Kenshin. You fought very bravely with that old sword. I was surprised it even cut Enishi!"
Kenshin looked down at the sword. [I. . . I know how to fight!] Rurouni shouted with utmost pride.
(Good boy Rurouni! Now, get the snack! Get the snack!) Battousai snickered.
[That's not going to work on me like it did last time, you know!] Rurouni frowned.
(Darn. . .)
Kaoru smiled, "I guess I did program you with fighting abilities. . ."
"And it's very good that you did. It saved both of our lives." Kenshin said. There was something in his voice that was very sad, but Kaoru couldn't quite put her finger on it.
"Kenshin?" she watched him look up at her, violet eyes shinning, brimmed with tears unwilling to come out. "Is there something wrong?"
She held in her sigh. 'Of course there's something wrong. What kind of stupid question is that??? Pull yourself together Kaoru! He's a robot, of course there's something wrong! He doesn't feel like a human because he isn't one!' she thought.
Kenshin looked back down to the sword. He sighed, "No, Kaoru. There's nothing wrong."
