Chapter 2- I watched her change…

"Urh Kaoru what have I told you??" asked Saito quietly, his voice slightly shifting from softness to aggitation…
"That you love me?" she blinked back with innocent sapphire eyes…
"Don't give me that face young lady" spoke Saito matter-of-flatly…
"What face da--I mean, war-lord Saito?" she gave him the puppy face. The huge glistening puppy eyes with pouting cheeks and mouth to go with it. He could even see light fake tears coming on…
"Curse your mother genes" Saito grumbled to himself…
"What was that?" she asked wickedly
"Nothing~ so lil lady, are you hungry?" asked Saito who placed his hands in his sleeves…
"Yeah----I kinna am" she heard her stomach making some eccentric noises…
"Well then, I'll have Okita lead you off to get something" spoke Saito…
"Awww----why can't you come with me, it'll be like old times…" she held onto his shoulder and smiled giddily…
"Look Kaoru, daddy is a busy man, and he doesn't have time for this…" spoke Saito softly…
"DADDY DOESN'T LOVE MEEEEEE" she cried----in public….
Everyone turned to the little girl and averted their eyes to the man on the side who said he had no relations.
"WHY DADDY? WHY? MY DADDY DOESN'T LOVE MEEEEEEEEEEEEE! WEHHHHHHHHHH!" she cried liked a little baby…
"Alright, alright, no need to get your nerves tied" he whispered fiercely…
"YEAHHHHH!" she hugged him regardless of what he had told her prior that morning.
"Girls…" he whispered seeing no end to her and her kind.
The Shinsen made and unaccustomed stop at the Sherry Baby's one of most chosen outlets for fast-food dining. The Shinsen were always on business so they rarely stopped by, but when they did, the store owners usually made big box. As they walked further down the road, Kaoru could see people backing up and some women gasping. It was if the Shinsen were a feared group of elite soldiers. Kaoru just knew her father tried to have the old government, but what she did not know, was that he was a cold-hearted murderer, just as the men she walked with. Her innocent eyes traveled from left to right as she watched both genders clear a path for the Shinsen, she pulled at her father's shirt and he looked down at her. At first he saw huge pools of uncertainty, then worry.
"What is it?" he asked…
"Why is everyone clearing a path for us?" she asked innocently.
Saito turned his head back to the front, he contemplated on weather he should tell his daughter what he really was…and what his organization really did.
"They respect us…" he spoke and with that she looked at him more quizzically. She studied her father's soldiers, many were dressed in green and white, with double katanas.
Allowing troublesome blues to race to the sky, she seem confused and allowed her thoughts to sway…
The Shinsen lead her into the Sherry-baby's where many of the girls fearfully hid behind the manageress.
Saito sat down, while Okita was instructed to go with Kaoru and pick out what she liked…
"Um Okita, what's these funny sounding things?" she asked…
"Your Japanese is pretty bad" he spoke quietly…
"Well who asked you bucko?" she snapped…
Okita smiled with two hands up and a few sweat drops falling down on the side of his head…
It was not ordinary to see Japanese women bullying the men, yet when in turn Kaoru did bully Okita, it came as a shock to the entire restaurant.
She turned her head and saw everyone looking at her…
"Yes, yes, I know I am beautiful don't stare too hard now…" she spoke flashily…
Okita had to admit she was very fiery. He never saw a girl like her, most of the Japanese women or teenage girls were subservient and graceful, but Kaoru, HA! She was the complete opposite, it looked as if Saito got a son in the skin of a pretty daughter. Yup, she was one of those spicy things…
"Done?" asked Okita with a smile on his face…
She rolled her eyes and nodded. "So what will you have to eat, sushi, tempura, onigiri, cold noodles, miso-soup, boiled vegetables?? What?" he asked…
"Hmm, the noodles and miso-soup sounds good" she licked her lips… "what's there to drink?" she asked
"Well there is saki which you are too young to drink." he spoke flatly…
"Who says buddy?" she growled at him…
'She's real scary when she has an evil sounding voice…---talk about scary' Okita thought…
"How old are you?" she asked…
"Well I'm 15..." he smirked…
"Well I will be next two weeks, so I think I could have a head-start" she leaned closer to Okita fluttering her eyes…
Okita only sweat dropped, 'Oh kami-sama, now she's acting like an angel. I can't handle this…oh the torture, the pain. I'm too young for this'
Saito saw what Kaoru was doing, yup this was Tokio's daughter alright, devil-child Kaoru.
"Okita, don't let her have anything alcoholic to drink, do you understand?" spoke Saito seriously.
"Hai, lord Saito" Okita spoke soldier-like…
Kaoru gave Okita a angry and pathetic look. 'What a total moron'
"Well continue on and tell me what you have to drink" she listened…
"Well, urh, there is green-tea, and a bunch of other tea families, --- and um, water??" he smiled, worried she would hit him.
"Got milk?" she asked
"Milk?? As in what comes from the cows?" he asked, slightly twisting his face…
"Yes stupid the perishable product which gives you strong bones and teeth to grow just right, recommended by doctors for essential growth." she spoke flatly…
"Um, no…milk is for babies" he whispered…
"Really your kind is so primitive" she blew her bangs out her hair and folded her arms…
"How about you try our green-tea?" he asked…
"It doesn't hurt to try anything new, so alright, I'll give it a whirl. If I get sick it's you and me" she glared him daggers…
Okita never felt so afraid, not even Battousai could scare him the way she did.
Kaoru walked to the big men's table seeing her father and other men speaking of business.
"So---what's the stats paps?" she went into the middle of her father and a next bigger guy and listened…
"Kaoru---um, where is Okita?" asked Saito
"Ordering the food" she spoke cutely…
"Ahh~~ why aren't you with him?" asked Saito
"I dunno, coz I think he's bor---RING" she stuck out her tongue into his direction.
"Hmm, I see. Well Kao, how about you do me favor" he spoke
"Sure daddy, anything for you" she seem perked up…
"How about you sit with Okita this afternoon, daddy has some business…" he spoke…
She face-faulted and gave him a flat face, "you want me to leave don't you?" she asked
"Basically" he spoke
"Evil father" she grumbled and with that slightly walked to Okita.
"HEY OKITA" she screamed in his ear, Okita jumped into the waitress arms when he heard that scream…
Kaoru giggled. "Oh, what a sucker!" she slapped her knee and giggled hysterically…
Everyone watched her in shock.
"Saito, are you sure that's your daughter?" asked one of the bigger men…
"I wish I could answer that, apparently I can't…" muttered Saito…
The waitress dropped Okita and went to the back.
"Oh Okita, you're such a sucker. That was great---hhahahah" she laughed…
Okita kept his cool and sighed deeply to himself. Dusting himself off, he went to her and placed a hand over her mouth.
She seem alarmed and then was met by soft cobalt eyes.
"Shh! You're gonna get us kicked out" he explained…
Removing his hand from her mouth, he saw that she dribbled on his hand…
"Ewww----eww, eww---get it off" Okita groused out and Kaoru inclined her brows…
"It's just some spit" she spoke flatly…
"Yeah, but its your spit which I don't know if you brushed your teeth and stuff" he spoke.
"WHAT?? OKITA--WHY I OUGHTA" she screamed…
Okita's brain said one thing, 'run very very fast, and when you ran fast, run faster'.
He made a dash-line out the door with Kaoru coming straight behind him, out door she went looking for him.
"Oh sweet Okita" she called sweetly…
Many girls looked at her oddly, "what? Never seen a girl call a guy? Jeezz" Kaoru rolled her eyes…
Okita was around a table watching some old men playing 5-dots.
'And she goes in for the strike.' Kaoru ran into Okita, who caught her arms and draped her into his arms.
"Look at the game" he whispered in her ear…
"But I don't wanna, I wanna beat you up" she played cry…
"Hush" he spoke and with that she pouted her lips and looked on.
Okita and Kaoru were both sorta intimately standing. But it didn't come as an all customary shock as seeing two people holding each other, what made eyes flashing and people gasping, was the fact they were Shinsen-gumi.
"Okita he's gonna lose" Kaoru whispered loud enough so everyone could hear her…
They looked at her and she gave a weak smile… "well that's the truth people"
"Has anybody ever told you that you spoke too much?" asked Okita who leaned his cheek against hers…
Kaoru was always a horny lil girl, who liked too many boys. She often called them their wrong names mistaking them for the other. She didn't mind a hell this contact, and could care less if he kissed her, she just considered him another she flirted with.
"Yes…my mommy, daddy, my friends and even my parrot whose suppose to talk more than me…but he's dead now" she whispered sadly…
"Aww, how come?" he leaned his cheek more into hers, his eyes side-glancing into hers…
"I spoke too much, and the parrot said he had enough and killed himself,---I didn't mean to talk so much---or feed him after a weeks time…" she whispered the ending…
"You what? You mean you feed the parrot after a weeks time?" he asked in light humor…
She nodded her head cutely, like a little girl…
"It seems as if we have a killer…" he smirked…
She swallowed hard and her blue eyes began watering…
Okita softened just a bit, "do you love him Kaoru?" he asked…
"Yes…he was my bestest friend in the whole wide world" she spoke so cutely, so innocent, so non-demonic.
"Ahh, well if you keep that in mind, somehow, he might consider you the same---I think--I hope…you never know" he weakly smiled…
"You really think so?" she looked into his eyes. Then Kaoru and Okita realized something, they were looking into the next eyes, the blues of the next sailing into swirls of a magnetic attraction. His breath played across her lips and Kaoru smirked…
"Kiss me" she spoke daringly…
Okita's brain shut-down…his mouth began drooling…
Kaoru's brain reconsidered… 'don't bother'
"HHAHAAH! I WON" spoke the old man… "nobody can win me, who dares to challenge me next?" not a soul raised their hand.
Kaoru squirmed out Okita's hands and raised her hand, "I will" she spoke and with that pushed through the crowd…
"Hey lady move your butt, it's in the way…" Kaoru spoke and finally came to the small table where a board with dots sat…
"Hmm, and what do we have here?" asked the old man…
"Your worst nightmare…" she smiled…
"Hhaha, she's a feisty one. But yet nevertheless you're gonna lose" he spoke the ending ruthlessly…
"Listen grands, my dad thought me one good thing and that's if you're good at something, then go for it, don't give a hell of what people say to you…" she spoke…
"What are you trying to say kid?" the man didn't seem affected by her proverb…
"That I'm gonna kick your ugly kester" she stuck her tongue out and the game began…
From 10 minutes the game prolonged to an hour, Kaoru seem qualified enough to call herself a barely passing amateur. She sat with her hands in her hair, thinking and stressing it hard. Okita was at her side giving her prep talks…
"Give up little girl?" he asked…
"In your dreams gramps" she spoke deeply…
"You got some spunk kid, yet no brain…" he whispered…
"Listen you old couth, don't get me on the wrong side…" she growled…
She looked at the funnily arranged square board again, the geometrical-pattern recurring throughout. She stopped and saw what would make the game draw…
Placing her dot to the middle, it was considered they both won…
"I believe we both won…" she spoke lowly…
"But I didn't play here" the man spoke…
"Well then I guess I win" she showed him the arrangement of her five dots…
"Boyahh! Go Kao--go kao, it's your birthday…" she did her dance and with that everyone clapped at her.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you very much. I'll be here all week…" she grinned taking in the fame.
[An: Chibi-binasu-chan, don't kill me, don't kill me, just borrowing in good faith. Ne? ~_^;]
Okita pulled at Kaoru reminding her she had to eat…
She nodded and bade the crowd…
She entered the restaurant, "GUESS WHOSE BACK? BACK? BACK? BACK AGAIN? KAORU'S BACK, TELL A FRIEND, GUESS WHOSE BACK, GUESS WHOSE BACK, GUESS WHOSE BACK?" [Eminem song] she shouted and everyone groaned…
She went to the cashier and got their finally cooked meals. Okita paid the money and Kaoru brought her father's food to them…
"Eat well now…" she smiled nicely… and they all nodded.
Okita and Kaoru went on a table for two and began eating. Okita dug in while Kaoru stop and said "grace" she prayed for a couple of minutes and then crossed her heart.
"Why did you pray?" he asked…
"To bless what I eat and that I am grateful for it" she smiled…
"I see" he mused…
Kaoru found that sitting on the opposite of Okita was so boring, so she went to his side and ate.
"What are you doing?" he asked…
"What does it look like I am doing? I'm sitting next to you, you imp" she sat down next to him and with that began eating. She taught Okita a game to play with their food, when Saito came to check up on them, he was slightly shocked. He saw that Kaoru and Okita were making their shrimps talk…--.--;?
Saito a man of steel and little patience to accept, softened his eyes, his best soldier which was currently sick and like a son to him, was finding a wonderful peace with his daughter, a devilish girl, yet she offered so much more than spunk and attitude, she offered the shoulder to cry on, the innocence to radiate, she offered so much more than that met the eye…
"Are you two ready?" asked Saito…
"LORD SAITO??" shouted a man…
Kaoru and Okita became alert when they heard the horrified shout
Saito snapped around and looked at the bloodied man, many people began evacuating the place while screaming.
"Oh mi-god Okita, what's happening?" asked Kaoru in horror as she unconsciously hugged him…
"Tahachi, what happened?" Saito held the bloodied man…
"Battous--s--sai------Ishin…" the man went black in his leaders arms…
Kaoru watched the man in horror…
"Okita, take Kaoru and get her back to the base…we will hold the Ishinshin off" Saito unsheathed his blade likewise his men…
Okita and Kaoru were about to leave through the back entrance when Saito called…
"Okita"
The boy turned…
"Don't dare let her see red" Saito spoke and with that left…
"What's that mean?" asked Kaoru in horror…
"Never-mind…" Okita whispered
"What about my father?" she screamed…
"There's no time" he lifted her up and her screams rung the restaurant walls…
"DADDDY"
