Previous on Kaoru and the Battosai-
"Now we can't have you running away without a punishment, can we? Now tell me what do you want your punishment to be?" He questioned coldly as he brought his face closer to hers and seizing her hands so that she could not escape again. 'Oh God please help me...I want to go back home...I want to see father again...I don't want to be here.' She thought as a single tear rolled down her face.
~Kaoru and the Battosai~
Chapter 11
~Seeing Tears~
"Tell me what you want you're punishment to be or I'll just have to come up with it by myself." As Kaoru heard this more tears began to stream down her pale cheeks. 'Huh...she's crying....I...I..m.made her cry..I made this sweet innocent foolish girl cry...She should be crying she disobeyed your orders...she's you're prisoner you shouldn't care if she cries or not...but I don't want her sad...I never wanted to hurt her..I didn't want to make her cry.' Battosai thought as he let her hands lose. He then brought his hand up to her face to wipe the tears away but stopped when Kaoru shut her eyes and turned her head as faraway as she could. He could feel her tremble with fear against his body.
"Kaoru....I...I'm." 'I can't.....I can't tell her I'm sorry...that won't stop her tears...it won't stop her fear for me...would she believe me ....would she?.....Just forget about her let that wretch cry her heart out...but look I made her cry..' Battosai took some steps back leaving enough room for Kaoru to escape 'I could make a run for it..but what if it's a trick...what if he wants me to run and ....then he would just find another reason to punish me..' Kaoru thought as the tears continued to fall from her eyes. "Get out of this room, now!" With that said Kaoru dashed out of the room.
Kaoru ran though the dark halls and stumbled down the stairs. At the bottom Sano and Yahiko were still where she had left them earlier. "What do you want ug....." Yahiko stopped when he saw her face was wet with previous tears and tears that where still falling. "S....Sano. Whe...where is my...my.. horse? Whe...re is Un...mei?" Kaoru asked stuttering. Sighing Sano answered her "Go out the front doors take a right and there you will find a path, take the path, it will lead you straight to the stables, where your horse should be." "Arigatou Sano....Yahiko....sayouhara.' she said in a whispered. As she rushed to the door when she was about to leave she was stopped by Sano voice "Jou-Chan be careful." "Arigatou" Kaoru whispered again shut the door behind her. She found the path Sano told her that lead straight to the stable. When she got there she petted Unmei 'Unmei it's nice to see you.....lets go home before it's to late...home..' she climb up on Unmei, who started tottering away. 'Bye.....Battosai' She thought as she took one last glance upon the castle
"Sano what happen? Kaoru was crying why?" Yahiko questioned child like. "I don't know; but I think it has something to do with Battosai." "Should we go see?" "Why not lets." Sano and Yahiko began to look around the castle for Battosai. They finally found him in the West Wing sitting against the wall, with his katana prop against his knee. His face looked straight across the other side of the room, but his eyes where hazed over as if he was in really deep thoughts. "We just saw Jou-Chan crying. Do you know why?" Sano asked breaking the silence of the room. Battosai's closed his eyes and then reopened them looking at Sano. "What's it to you, Sano?" "I just want to know. She seemed really upset by something." "Yeah Kaoru was crying a lot. She even called me Yahiko no –Chan." Battosai then turned his glare to Yahiko "Yahiko leave us. I want to talk to Sano alone." "But I want to stay!" "Leave kid." Sano spoke in before Battosai said something unkind to the little cup. "Fine," Yahiko said leaving "I never get to hear anything."
"So what is it you want talk about with me? Is it about Jou-Chan?" "Hai. Its about Kaoru." "So, what are you going to tell me why she was crying?" "Hai, I caught her in here. I told she wasn't allowed here so of course I was pissed to find her disobeying my rules." "And? What happen?" "Well she started talking back which made me more pissed than before. So I grabbed her neck and slammed her against the wall. After awhile I loosen my grip that's when she tried to escape. So I pushed her against the wall with my body and told her that she has to be punish. I don't know what she was thinking I was going to do but she started to cry." "So that's why she was crying?" "Hai, I didn't want to make her cry. I really wasn't going to punish her just wanted to scare her so that she wouldn't come back in this room...never wanted to make her to cry," he said as he leaned his head back propping it against the wall. "I want to tell her is that I'm sorry....sorry that I had caused her to cry...but I figure she wouldn't believe me.....that saying sorry wouldn't take back what I did to make her cry in the first place. So I just told her to leave the West Wing and she ran off,"
Sighing he continued "Sano, you said you saw her, where did she go?" "Uhh.....She asked me where her horse was." Sano said expecting Battosai to yell at him for letting his prisoner escape. "It's dark, she's probably hasn't made it home yet. She could be lost in the woods," looking out the balcony window, Battosai stood up taking his katana and walked out of the room followed by Sano. "Battosai, where are you going?" "I'm going to go get her. A young lady, such as Kaoru, should not be by herself at night." "You're not mad that I let her go?" "No Sano, I'm not mad." With that Battosai left the castle in search of Kaoru.
"Hey! Sano did you find out why Kaoru was crying? Did Battosai do something to make her cry?" Yahiko appeared next to Sano asking. "Yeah, Battosai is the one that made her cry; but he seems upset that he caused Jou-Chan to cry." "Where is he going?" "He's going to go get her. He said that no young lady, such as Kaoru should be alone at night." "You're kidding Battosai said that!?" "Yep, if you ask me I think he has some feelings deep down inside for her," Sano said smiling.
Meanwhile Kaoru and Unmei made their way carefully though the woods. "Unmei, I think we're lost. It's to dark to see where we're going.....we could stop and wait till morning...but I really want to get home, now...I want to be as far away from that castle as I can get." Unmei began to become restless and nervous. "Unmei, what's wrong?.." Hearing a noise Kaoru remained quite 'huh....is it Battosai....is he going to take me back....' Kaoru stopped Unmei not wanting to go further in case the noise she had heard came from there. She heard some more noise and some coming from the bushes nearby 'There's more than one...so it couldn't be Battosai...or could it.' "Who's there?" she called out into the dark, gloomy woods.
