Kenshin grinned happily at the white cloth in front of him "Perfect! White as snow!" It was then that he caught the sound of a faint knock at the gate door. At first he thought he had imagined it, but then it came again, fainter than before.
He shot up and ran towards the gate, freezing for a second, a couple off feet away from the door as the scent of blood hit his sensitive nose. He raced the last couple of feet and thru open the door.
A young girl, looking about the age of fifteen stood there, shivering despite the heat, staring at him with chocolate brown eyes that were glazed over with fever. It was only then that he noticed that she had a badly bleeding cut. It ran through her shoulder and he could tell that it was serious, it was bleeding heavily.
She looked up at him "I-Inuyasha…is…he here?…where is he…."
And she fainted right into his arms.
