Chp 7 Shura's Wrath

          ~Knock Knock~ "Can I come in? Megumi asked, opening the door. "Oh, ahem." Megumi cleared her throat, rousing Misao and Aoshi from their kiss. "Oh, hi Megumi…" Misao said blushing. "Aoshi has to take his meds, are you going to give them to him?" Megumi smirked, seeing Misao blush even more and nod, then she walked from the room.

* Sano… What am I going to do? * Megumi thought as she remembered Sano hugging her. * Well, oh well, I have to give Karou her meds first. * She thought as she walked to the Kamiya dojo. But lo and behold, she ran into Sanosuke on the way. "Sano?" Megumi questioned. "Hai, it's me, where are you off to Fox?" Sano asked. "…" Megumi just stared at him, lost to lust. "Well since you seem to have nothing to do, you want to have lunch with me?" Sano asked.

          "Hai…" Megumi nodded dumbly as she followed Sano, Karou forgotten. ~At the dojo~ "So, will you be able to get her, without anyone noticing?" Shura whispered to a lone figure. "Hai, as long as you have the battousai out of the way." The figure said. "Alright Katsgi, I'm counting on you." Shura said as she walked back into the dojo.

          "Kenshin, do you want to go on a picnic with me?" Shura asked, making puppy-dog eyes. "I need to check on Karou, that I do. And I also need to give her lunch." Kenshin said, going to the dojo. "What do you think I just did? Karou is my friend, I would never let her be neglected." Shura lied, having not checked on Karou and not given her lunch. Yahiko came around the corner, searching for Kenshin.

          "Kenshin, can I go with Tae and Tsubame? They are going on vacation, and they invited me!" Yahiko explained, excitedly. "Well sure Yahiko, how long will you be gone?" Kenshin asked. "Only 5 days! Ok I'm going to pack and leave, tell Karou I said bye!" Yahiko yelled as he ran off." "I'll go tell her right now!" Kenshin said, trying to get away from Shura. "No, you can do that later, now the picnic basket, and a blanket are by the bathhouse, let's go!" Shura said.

          "All remiss Shura, if you insist, but we have to be back soon, so I can check on miss Karou." Kenshin explained. "Yeah, yeah, I know, but if you want to get back sooner, we should leave now." Shura said grinning. * You will marry me Kenshin, and finally I will be able to wear the kimono my father gave me * Shura thought as they walked together.

~At the dojo~

          "Where is everyone? I haven't eaten since breakfast. Oh, I hope everyone is ok!" Karou thought a s she lay on her futon. "Eeek I smell, when will I be able to go to the bathhouse?" Karou thought frowning. The door began to slowly slide open, and a figure came in to view,, but his face was covered. "W-who are you?" Karou gasped. "I am Katsgi, and you'd better be quiet or I will have to make you do so. As I have heard to many concussions is not very good for you." Katsgi said.

 "W-why, what do you want?" Karou asked. "I only want what those who pay me tell me to do, and that is take you, and leave you somewhere!" Katsgi laughed. "No! DON'T!" screamed Karou. Katsgi swung his fist at Karou's head, "I warned you Karou dear." He laughed, as he swung Karou over his shoulder. He made his way through the wilderness, ironically right past Kenshin and Shura.

~Megumi and Sano~

          "Oh, Sano, I didn't know that the Sekihoutai, did so much good! I'm glad you invited me for lunch…SHIT!" Megumi exclaimed. "What fox? Did I do something wrong?" Sano asked. "No, it's just that I forgot to give Karou her lunch time meds!" Megumi explained. "Oh, but when I asked you if you were doing anything you said nothing." Said Sano. "I know, it's just that I would rather be with you…" Megumi said blushing. "Really Fox, you mean it?" Sano asked.

          "Just as much as I, love to help people, that is how much I love you!" Megumi said hugging Sano. "I love you to, Megumi." Megumi looked up startled, Sano had actually called her by name! "Oh Sano! Come on! Let's go give Karou her meds, then we can do something… together." Megumi said happily. They both began walking to the dojo.

          "Hey! Jou-chan, we're here with you meds, so hurry up and take them so we can…go somewhere." Sano said puzzled, he had stuck his head in Karou's room, only to find it empty. "Maybe they are in Kenshin's room, confessing their love to one an' other." Megumi giggled, refusing to think anything bad happened. "Ok, let's look there." Sano said, leading the way.  

          "Ken-san! Sorry to bother you! We need to give…" Megumi stopped as she found yet another empty room. Well not so empty, Sano crossed the room and found a note on Kenshin's small table. "What does it say Sanosuke?" Megumi asked worriedly. "It says: Kenshin I have taken Karou, if you want her alive you had better not search for her, I have ways of finding out! Signed Katsgi." Sano said. "No! Poor Karou, and all we could think about was eating!" Megumi sobbed.

          "It's ok Fox, she'll be ok, we will find her!" Sano said. "We will find who Sano? And why are you to in my bedroom?" Kenshin asked, coming in. "Her Kenshin, read this…" Megumi sobbed, handing Kenshin the note. Kenshin took a while to read it, before turning mildly Battousai. "We are going to look for her now!" Kenshin screamed. "No, we can't! The note said not to!" Shura pleaded.

          "Miss Shura, I know you are worried for Miss Karou's safety, but I must go find her!" Kenshin said, starting out the door. "Wait for us!" Sano called, dragging Megumi by the hand. "No, no you mustn't!" Shura yelled. ~ A few days later~ "We still haven't had any luck, where could she be?" Megumi asked. "I don't know, and look at poor Kenshin, he is a wreck!" Sano said.

          "We shouldn't have gone! We shouldn't have!" Shura said pacing back and forth. "Miss Shura I had to, that I did, Karou is my life and without her, I am nothing." Kenshin said sadly. They had all just came back from a search. On the way to the Kitchen, Kenshin saw a slip of paper on the table. "No!!!!!" Kenshin screamed after reading it. "What! What!" Sano yelled as he grabbed the note from Kenshin. "What does it say?" Megumi paled.

          "It says: I told you not to search for her, and now the inevitable has happened, she is dead, As a reminder you can have her pretty, blood stained hair tie, it is in your room Kenshin, Now all other sword technique dojos, will have a chance to teach and train students. Signed Katsgi" Sano wiped tears from his face. "Missy… she was like a sister to me…" Sano said sadly. "She was My best friend!" Misao and Aoshi stepped in, from where they had been standing.

          "She was a friendly little gal…" Aoshi said, holding Misao against him. "She was my best friend to!" Megumi said clutching Sano. "She WAS my sister, the only one I had!" Yahiko cried, having come back from his vacation. "I… Loved… Her…" Kenshin whispered, he had already gotten the hair tie and was now clutching it to his heart.

~A few days before, in the mountains~

          "So, you think your friends miss you huh?" Katsgi said giving Karou her breakfast. "Yes, they do!" Karou said defiantly. "Well, I'm sure they do, I mean not even feeding you the day that you got captured." Katsgi laughed. "I'm sure there is a good reason for that! They are my friends, of course they care!" Karou yelled, then quieted. "Why do you do this kind of work?" Karou questioned. "Truth be told I have a little daughter, and a little son, their mother died trying to save them as a cocky soldier wanted to get his kicks. I don't have any other way to get money for them." Said Katsgi

          "Well, are you sure? There has to be something… I know you can stay at the dojo with me and my family!" Karou said. "Don't be silly! The battousai will most likely kill me, then look at me, besides I am perfectly happy with the line of work I am in!" Katsgi said. "Fine, when will I be able to go?" Karou asked. " I don't know, my boss has to tell me. For now let's make the most of our time, what's your favorite color?" Katsgi asked.
