Hi! I'm back! And I'm ready to write! And for all you who guessed my gender, I am indeed a girl! (Could a gut write this mushy? (No offense to guys!)). Yeah and some1 guessed perfectly, my name is like this cuz I love Kenshin, Goten and Trunks, but I'm thinking of making the last part Truten… Ah Flit?
Flitwick: Ah yes, Disclaimer: how does this go again??? Oh yeah no body writing this story owns Rurouni Kenshin, but they wish they did!
Enough Flit can't you see they want to read the Story???!!!
CHP 4 Shura? And someone else?
"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."
"What are you doing here?" Sano asked. "I was by the neighborhood, and decided to take Karou up on that offer of staying for a while. I got to the dojo, and none of you were there, but I found the note." Shura stated. "So you're going to help us find Karou?" Yahiko asked hopefully. "I guess…" Shura said.
"Then there is no time to waste miss Shura, let's go!" Megumi cried, running once again down the broken path. "Yeah let's!" Yahiko yelled following Megumi, soon Sano and Shura followed.
~Kenshin~
Miss Karou! Please hold on! If anything ever happened to you I- * Kenshin was cut off by a figure standing in his path. "Please step out of the way! I need to pass!" Kenshin yelled. "No…" The figure said. "I will have to take you out of my way then!" Kenshin cried, his eyes slowly changing color.
"No! Wait you don't understand!" The figure cried. "Misao? Is that you?" Kenshin asked. "Yesss…" She said weakly. "What happened you are hurt." Kenshin asked concerned. "Aoshi…" Misao managed to spit out. "HIM!" Kenshin yelled. "No! He was hypnotized, or something, he has no idea what he's doing! I've been trying to find out who did it to him…" Misao stopped.
"Why should I believe you? He is just trying to hurt MY Karou!" Kenshin yelled, eyes yellow. " Kenshin, he has not wanted to fight you for a while now! He just wanted a little peace, but someone found him… and did that to him, but I know what can break it!" Misao said, getting up. "Ok, then you will travel with me." Kenshin said walking toward the Hibachis River.
~Sano, Fox, Shura and Yahiko~
"Why would any one do this? I thought everything was settled!" Yahiko cried. "Yeah, the make over was the liveliest thing we had all month!" Sano said. "Oh! …" Megumi stopped. "What Fox?" Sano asked. "It was me… I did it, I really did!" Megumi gasped. "You did what?" Now Shura was curious. "A man came up to me, he said 'I've seen your friend, she's not to pretty, and that man doesn't seem to like her, why don't you be kind and help her?" Megumi finished.
"So?" Shura said. "Don't you get it I bet it was all a set up, someone knew Kenshin wouldn't like Karou with makeup on! And I aided them!" Megumi cried. "Hey! Hey! Fox, calm down, that sounds a little far-fetched. Let's just go help, the blame game will not help." Sano said. "Your right! Saving Karou is all that matters!" Megumi cried. *Oh, that does not matter to me at all… * thought someone darkly.
~Karou~
"Sit up! You little whore! Lord Aoshi says to eat this!" Enshi shoved a plate of food in Karou's face. "no… it's poisoned…" Karou said weakly. "Ha! What makes you think we would kill you before we could 'play' with you?! Eat NOW!" Enshi kicked her in the abdomen once more.
"Enough! If she is to banged up, I'm sure Kenshin will not want her anymore, such a pity… A beautiful angel like your self should be with the best." Aoshi smirked. "Please… please Aoshi let me go…" Karou said weakly. "No my pet, here you shall stay, I think till the end of your days!" Aoshi laughed as he left the room.
Karou ate little food, her bruised stomach really couldn't hold much in. Enshi sat staring at her, but he didn't really seemed focused. As a matter of fact he never had seemed focused, since Karou had been taken there. Enshi eyes slowly began to droop, and finally soft snores could be heard from him. Karou began to inch towards the door.
~They meet up~
"Hey you guys look! It's Kenshin!" Yahiko cried running had. Kenshin had lagged because of the shape Misao was in, he had decided to carry her, Sano mistook her for Karou. "Wow Kenshin that was fast! You didn't leave any of the action for me?" Sano asked good-naturally. "No you misunderstand, this is Misao, and she is going to help me." Kenshin said. "Kenshin!" Shura ran up to hug Kenshin. "Oro?!" Kenshin cried, setting down Misao.
"Miss Shura please let go of me, and why are you here?" Kenshin said. "Why are you not happy to see me?" Shura pouted. "No, it's just that now is not a good time for a visit, that it's not." Kenshin said. "Yeah, I can see that, but I am willing to help, then after words, I'll stay with you at the dojo for a bit." Shura said. "Ok, we need to hurry! I fear for miss Karou's life!" Kenshin said gathering Misao up again.
~Karou~
"I hear them coming! Enshi get your lazy ass up! The girl is almost out the door!" Aoshi yelled. Enshi quickly got up and roughly grabbed Karou. In the 2 hours he had been asleep she had only managed to scoot 2 feet, due to her broken limbs. * No… so close! * Karou thought as she passed out from exhaustion.
"Battousai! I see you've decided to come to your grave!" Aoshi laughed. "No graves will be set here… And you boast of your skill, you can't even beat me fairly!" Kenshin said. "Ah, you mean your sword, I simply did not want you to fight with a reverse blade!" Aoshi said. "And why might that be?" Kenshin asked. "Because, even if you managed to beat me, you would not kill me." Aoshi said.
"I see… Fine but I will still not kill you." Kenshin said. "See, that's where you are wrong! Even if you manage to beat me, and you do not kill me, I will have your dear sweet Karou's life!" Aoshi laughed turning towards the cabin. Kenshin followed his gaze and gasped. Enshi was holding up Karou, and a knife was pressed into her throat, drawing blood. "So see, you not so clever Battousai, you will have to unleash your true self, or the woman will die anyway!" Aoshi smirked.
"You… Fine I will fight you, to-the-death!" Kenshin cried, eyes turning slightly yellow. "Noooo!!! Kenshin I won't let you!" Karou cried out from Enshi's arms. "Kenshin you don't have to remember?!" Shura yelled, running from her hiding spot. Aoshi was about to yell to Enshi, when Misao jumped on his back and poured a liquid down his throat. "Acck! Uggh, what is th-" Aoshi weakly collapsed on the ground.
Enshi, seeing that Aoshi was down, dropped Karou and ran. "Karou! Are you ok?" Sano asked running out of the bush. Kenshin to was trying to walk over to Karou, but Shura held him back. "Shura I need to see her!" Kenshin cried. "But Kenshin, she's fine, and I've missed you so!" Shura cried hugging Kenshin. Karou looked over and saw what seemed to be Kenshin hugging Shura. "Ken-shin…" Karou called weakly before she blacked out.
