CHAPTER 1 MIKOMI

'And thus the Americans won the revolutionary war but the real struggle was only beginning as…"

A young ten year old girl slowly laid her head down her desk and continued to sleep, it wasn't her fault history was so boring. Miss Tanner made even the most exciting parts of the war boring. Mikomi brushed her long black hair back with her fingers and retied her ponytail that hung down to her waist. Her red eyes were still droopy as she listened to more of what her teacher gabbed on and on about for the last 2 semesters.

'Mikomi!" Miss Tanner cried and the ruler came down onto her desk giving the black hair girl a startle, and the strict history teacher leaned her long pointy nose and long neck towards her. "Do you find something boring about the construction of American history"

'Uh…" Mikomi said, "Do I really have to answer truthfully?"

'Why you little…that's it I'm calling your guardians your grades have been plummeting and your attention span is shorter then my nerves" Miss Tann said and quickly picked up her text book, 'Let's see what you've been doing all period besides sleeping!"

Flipping threw the pages she found doodles of people hanging around graves with Mikomi drinking saki and eating rice cakes. Some of the images even showed people with ghastly figures above them fighting each other.

'What is this Miss Yamato?" Miss Tanner asked sticking the note book in Mikomi's face.

'Uh doodles?" She said.

'And what are these doodles of?" Miss Tanner asked.

'Ghosts" Mikomi said and rolled her eyes without a care.

'And what have we talked about Ghosts?" Miss Tanner asked.

'That they're not real they're a figment of my imagination that isn't good for my studies if I ever wanna get into yawn college" Mikomi said and started to feel a bit tired.

Miss Tanner had gave her a speech about Ghosts not being real almost ever day since she had started in this school a week ago, she had no friends because of that and the people that do like her don't talk to her that much. But she knew the truth that Ghosts were real, heck every Saturday night she would go down and have a big party with her ghost friends and have a blast. Of course her father Jacob Yamato didn't believe in Ghosts ether.

Her father was a well respected member of the Japanese community and made money to burn. But somehow she didn't care for riches and fame or all the glory that would become her when she inherits the company someday. She wanted to see the world and get out this dead beat town of Reedington.

'RING

'Oh saved by the bell!" Mikomi said as she rushed out of the class, that had been her last lesson for the day so as she went to her locker she prepared to go home.

Once outside she walked all the way out to Monument Hill, hopefully she'd find some ghosts and chill out for awhile. Suddenly she heard something behind her and she saw the local school bully Jake standing there.

'What's a little girl like you doing out here?" He asked. "All alone?"

'Nothing" Mikomi said and backed as Jake came closer and suddenly smashed his fist into his her face.

Mikomi fell to the ground a bruise formed on her cheek and Jake suddenly stood over her and kicked her in the side.

'Huh your ghost friends gonna help you now huh ghost girl?" Jake asked.

'I think you better leave the kid alone" A voice said and Jake looked over to see a man in his early forties standing nearby a wooden sword in his hand. 'That is if you wont to leave unharmed"

'Huh who the heck are you?" Jake asked, 'Hey Elvis called he wants his hair back!!"

'Excuse me!" He yelled and stepped foreword, 'I am Rio of the wooden sword leader of the dead enders!"

'Ah your…your Rio" Jake asked and stepped back, 'I'm outta here I'm not gonna get killed"

Mikomi watched as Jake run away and looked over at her rescuer. He was a tall skinny man with a toothy white grin across his face. His long black hair was done in an Elvis style fashion only it reached out a lot longer, his eyes were settled upon her as she rubbed her face. He was wearing a white big collar suit with purple collar and cuffs around the wrists.

'Are you alright girl?" Rio asked and noticed she saw looking behind him. 'What are you looking at?"

'The big ugly green dude behind yea" Mikomi chuckled, 'Damn is he green with envy or just sick?"

'Huh I am not sick and I am not green with envy!" Totogaro cried as he held out his fists and growled, 'And I'm always this color little girl!"

'Calm down my friend" Rio said and turned to the girl, 'You can see him?"

'Of course I can see em" Mikomi said, 'My names is Mikomi I'm new around here and was looking for some ghosts to have a big party with"

'Why don't come inside then Mikomi" Rio said pointed to the small shrine on the top of Monument hill.

Mikomi followed closely behind Rio as she stared at the graveyard where the ghosts were on looking Rio and the new girl as they walked towards the tiny shrine. Suddenly she noticed a ghost of a young man about in his twenties, he had long red hair tied back in a long ponytail, a cross shaped scar was on his right cheek and his eyes. He was wearing a white and red kimono he also held a large sword that looked odd.

'Ah come in" Rio said and opened the shrine door and lead Mikomi in.

Mikomi looked around she couldn't didn't see much a small pot of rice boiling on a small burner and a few floor beds. She wasn't afraid of this Rio he was just like her he couldn't see ghosts, she wanted to know more about him.

Rio slowly turned on the light and looked over at Mikomi, she was beautiful her young age. Her long black and as she turned she smiled a chuckling grin at Rio and somehow a memory flashed of a young Shaman giving him the same grin.

Ah get it out of your head Rio Rio thought and turned towards Mikomi, 'Well now how long have you been able to see ghosts?"

'Ever since I could remember" Mikomi said and admired a photo of a bunch of people, some of them ghosts that hung on the wall. 'Hey are these your friends?"

'Yes they are" Rio said and walked over, 'They are all Shaman's like me"

'Shaman what's that?" Mikomi asked confused she heard the term from a few ghosts but not many.

'It's sort of hard to explain but answer me this question" Rio said, 'Why aren't you scared of me for all you know I could be a convicted murderer or something"

'Nah you don't act like a murderer and your too nice to be a psycho" Mikomi said and laughed a grin again. 'Besides I think your hair is awesome"

'You think my hair is awesome?" Rio asked and smiled brightly, 'It's nice to see a young lady that actually knows style these days"

'By the way what's with the red head guy with the scar in the graveyard?" She asked, 'Everyone seemed to stay away from him he seemed distant"

'Oh him that's Kenshin but history knows him better as the Battousai" Rio said.

'The boathouse a?" Mikoumi asked, 'Huh id like meet this Man Slayer it think it would cool to meet someone like that haha"

'So where are your parents wouldn't they be worried about you?" Rio asked as scooped some rice into a bowl.

'Tell yea truth my dad's out of the country so while he's out I'm alone in that big house" She said and took the rice with a smile, 'Thanks well alone all for the exception of our butler James and the maids"

'So your rich then a kid?" Rio asked as Tetogaro noticed something hanging around her neck.

'That necklace where did you get it?" Totogaro asked as he examined the necklace that hung around her neck.

Mikomi looked down at the necklace, it was a long rainbow beaded necklace with three strings that tied in the back in the centre hanging over her chest was a large ivory eagle spreading it's wings in glory.

'Oh this thing.." Mikomi said, 'Iv had it ever since I couldn't remember"

'It is beautiful" Rio said and Mikomi looked down at her wrist watched and gasped.

'Ah man iv got to get going Rio I'm very sorry" Mikomi said and Rio walked towards the door leading her out. 'I've got a paper on the history of the American General Washington due in two days and I gotta finish it ASAP"

'I understand ah school I remember back when I was young and cheerful ah those were the days" Rio sighed. 'I have enjoyed your company my friend why don't you come by more often I could tell you more about Shamans"

'That would be awesome Rio" She said and ran off, 'See yea!!"

'Goodbye" Rio said as she disappeared down the stairs.

'That necklace it was a shaman necklace" Totogaro said.

'Yes I think it wise to inform our friends about this girl" Rio said, 'But for now I think her interest in Kenshin Hinomoura may prove to be more interesting then that necklace"

Mikomi ran down the stairs when she stopped, there was the same ghost she had seen before sitting on a tombstone drinking saki alone away from the other ghosts. She remembered Rio saying his name was Kenshin the legendary man slayer. Smiling she decided her paper could wait a few minutes and walked over towards the red head ghost.

'Hmm?" Kenshin asked looking over at the young girl as she walked towards him.

'Uh hi I'm Mikomi wont some company?" She asked.

'How can it be that you see me young miss" Kenshin asked.

'Uh iv been able to see ghosts as long as I can remember" She said and smiled, 'Rio told me your name is Kenshin and that you're a man slayer which I think is pretty cool"

'You think it is cool?" He asked in confusion, 'No one has ever came and talked to me like you do hope"

'So what" She said, 'Huh hope?"

'That is what your names isn't it?" Kenshin asked.

'Yea I guess" She smiled, 'Huh hey wanna hang for awhile?"

'Hang?" Kenshin asked.

'You know sit and talk for awhile I'm really interested in you" Mikomi said and looked at the tomb stone, 'Oh is this your tomb stone?"

'No" Kenshin said, 'I don't have one"

'Huh what do you mean you don't have a tombstone?!" Mikomi gasped in shock, 'That's not right"

'I use to have one but I was over on the edge of forest I am afraid that I am" Kenshin said, 'That is covered in vines and broken in two thanks to time"

'Oh" She said, 'Hey why don't I get you a new one"

'Nothing could replace that stone" Kenshin said.

'Hmm I really wanna help you Kenshin" Mikomi said and started to think.

Mikomi and Kenshin spent hours into the night talking about themselves and Rio had watched it all with his spirit Totogaro. They chatted like old friends..Rio was reminded of Yoh and Amidamaru she acted like him, smiled like him yet was bossy and unbearable at the same time.

'Are they still there?" Totogaro asked.

'Yes Mikomi is still there" Rio said and grabbed a blanket from his shelf.

'What are you doing?" Totogaro asked.

'I don't know why" Rio said he exited the small shrine and walked towards where Kenshin was to find Mikomi sleeping next to the tomb stone. 'But I have this weird feeling about this girl"

'She feel asleep as we talked" Kenshin said.

'Yes" Rio said and placed the blanket over her. 'Kenshin will you look after her until mourning my friend"

'You don't ask to me to do it" Kenshin said.

Thus Rio smiled and left Kenshin and Mikomi to the night stars.
