Chp #3
~Last Time~ ~Outside~ "I really screwed up, I'm never going to be able to get her now!" Kenshin was leaning against the wall. "Kenshin that you?" Sano asked. "Yeah, It's me…" Kenshin sighed. "Hey what's wrong?" Sano asked. "Yeah, what's wrong?" Megumi came up next to them. "Oh, it's just, well Aoshi is getting me riled!" Kenshin sighed again. "Oh Kenshin I'm so sorry! It's all my fault!" Megumi cried.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
~Early that morning~ "Ahhh-mmmph!" Karou woke up to a hand covering her mouth. "Shhhhh! It's only me, Aoshi." Aoshi said peering at her face. " What are you doing here?!' Karou shrieked, pulling the covers over her exposed form. "Shhhhh! I came so we could go without waking the others! Because they might try to stop us!" Aoshi said kneeling down. "Ok, ok! Just wait for me by the bath house, so I can get dressed." Karou said shoving Aoshi out the door. "Ok." Aoshi said as he walked out the door.
* Geez I didn't think he would come this early! Not even Kenshin wakes up this early! Oh Kenshin ^sob^ No don't think of him! * Karou thought to herself. She put on her purple Kimono, and proceeded to 'paint' her face. Karou tiptoed out to the bathhouse and greeted Aoshi. "Hi! I'm here!" Karou said, tugging at Aoshi's arm. "Oh, good! Here put this on. I want it to be a surprise!"
"You want what to be a surprise?" Karou asked putting the blindfold on (gullible ain't she ;p). "The place we're going! You know on our picnic." Aoshi said tying the back for her. "Oh, ok. Did you bring food?" Karou asked. "Yeah I left it at the spot where we are going! Come on, I'll lead you!" Aoshi took Karou's hand and led her into the forest.
~At the dojo~ "Hey morning everyone! How do you like your breakfast? Hey where's Karou?!" Kenshin good mood quickly turned sour. 'Uh, is she maybe taking a bath?" Yahiko asked. "Hey isn't this the day she was supposed to go with Aoshi?" Megumi asked (she had stayed the night). "Oh yeah, that she was… I don't like Aoshi…" Kenshin said while eating his rice ball. " Well are you jealous?" Yahiko asked laughing.
Everyone joined in until. "Yes…" Kenshin answered, not looking at any one. "Oh…" Yahiko said and continued eating. "Hey Kenshin, when your done can I talk to you?" Sano asked rising from the table. "Yeah, ok Sano." Kenshin answered. Kenshin finished clearing the table and then he went out to talk to Sano. "Hey! Sano, you wanted to talk to me?" Kenshin asked. "Yeah I did." Sano answered. "Well what about? I have to wash the dishes, that I do." Kenshin said gesturing towards the dojo.
"Well I wanted to ask you, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT KAROU?!" Sano yelled. "Oro?!" Kenshin said with a dazed look on his face. "Well it's obvious that she went with Aoshi today, and why haven't you done anything about it?" Sano asked. "It's also obvious that miss Karou doesn't share my affections, and she is a grown woman, that she is." Kenshin replied, with his gaze turned down. "Only because you never showed that you liked her!" Sano yelled, shaking Kenshin's shoulders.
"Well what can I do now? She is all ready on that picnic with Aoshi! Alone!" Kenshin's features turned shocked. "What if he violates her? She does not have her shinai, I have to go after her!" Kenshin yelled, turning to run. "Wait!" Sano caught Kenshin's arm. "If you go now, she'll just be mad at you! You have to wait until she comes back!" Sano said, letting go.
"Yeah, she won't appreciate you, if you go now…" a voice said from behind the wall. "Megumi!" both men shrieked. "Uh, Kenshin, I'm sorry she found out! I swear I didn't know she was behind that wall!" Sano threw up his hands. "It's ok Sano, she knew all ready." Kenshin said. "Well Kenshin we better get you tidied up, so Karou will really like you!" Megumi said grabbing Kenshin by the wrist. "No, no, no! Miss Megumi, none of your makeover tricks on me!" Kenshin cried, pulling away from Megumi.
"Awww, Kenshin, come on! It made Karou look great!" Megumi whined. "No, it made Karou get jumped, and save by Aoshi! Now I have to figure out how to win her back!" Kenshin said, turning away from Sano and Megumi. "Kenshin… I'm sorry…" Megumi said. "I know, I just am stressed, having her gone and with him." Kenshin said. Megumi jumped back startled, when Kenshin said him, his eyes went gold for a second.
"Oh! NO! You guys come here!" Yahiko cried from the laundry line. "What is it Yahiko-chan?" Megumi asked walking over. "It's a note, from Aoshi…" Yahiko said holding a piece of paper up. "Well what's it sa-" Sano was cut off when he was shoved aside by Kenshin. "Give me that Yahiko!" Kenshin cried, his eyes were defiantly gold now. Kenshin read the letter a couple times before dropping it, and running into the woods. "Wait! Kenshin where are you going?" Megumi called after the disappearing figure.
Sano walked over and picked the letter off the ground. "Hmmm it says: If you ever want to see your precious Miss Kamiya again, you had better come to the middle of the forest, near the Hibachis river. Don not bring the reverse blade sword, or you will see more of this…" Sano read, the letter had ended with some drops of blood on the paper. "We have to go help! This is all my fault!" Megumi cried.
"No, it's not, let's go." Sano said pulling Megumi close for a hug. Yahiko didn't make fun of them, because he was close to tears as well. "Hey San-o ^sob^ Sa-sa Sanosuke, c-can I-I go to?" Yahiko asked, gulping a couple times. Sano nodded, as they headed in to the woods. Nobody said anything, while they followed Kenshin's broken path. "He really loves her…" Megumi said looking down. Sano looked at her funny, but continued walking.
~At that evil cabin~ "Let me go… please?" Karou said looking up at Aoshi. "No… You know it did surprise me that you had gotten so lovely, I guess I will just have to wait and ravage you until after I kill the battousai." Aoshi chuckled. "I would do it now, but I doubt he'd still want you if you were… used." He smiled and left the room. "Please! Someone help!" Karou cried out, she actually wasn't in that bad of condition. The blood had been taken from here mouth, where she had been punched.
"Quite girl! Aoshi says I am to do as I like with you!" Enshi smiled evilly. "No!" Karou squirmed, trying to get away from him. "Hah! Not in that way… yet. But for now beating you will have to do!" Enshi rose and started kicking her in the abdomen. He then pulled her up to give her a rough kiss. Enraged Karou bit him hard on the lip, she drew blood. "You bitch!" Enshi swore, throwing her down on the ground.
Crack! "Ahhh!" Karou screamed he arm had twisted and broken upon landing. "He, he that hurt? How about this?" Enshi raised his foot and kicked her in the shin. Crack! "Owww!" Karou screamed and fainted as her shin was snapped in half. "What have you done? You stupid fool! If I do not get a good fight out of the battousai, because you have hurt his women, you will pay dearly!" Aoshi strode in the room. * Oh please Kenshin, someone! Help me! * Karou silently pleaded, while pretending to remain unconscious. Unfortunately her stomach choose that moment to growl.
Kenshin quickly hurried through the forest, he had left his reverse blade at the dojo, as requested in the letter. If she was harmed there would be hell to pay! * Kuso! Why hadn't I told her how much I love her? Maybe if she had known… * Kenshin thought, holding back his tears as he searched for his love…
"We've got to find a way to stop this from happening!" Sano said stopping, he knew they would need help. It was not likely Aoshi would be alone. "You need help do you?" a female voice said from a tree. "Shura?" Sano asked peering into the tree. "Who is she?" Megumi asked with a hint of jealousy in her voice. "Yes it's me."
