Pervious on Kaoru and the Battosai-

"Now is that all of the question?" "Yep, for now anyways." Kaoru said haply. "So tell me what do you want to do today Kaoru?"

~Kaoru and the Battosai~

Chapter 24

~To The Dojo

          "Ummm…Ah how about we go to the dojo!" Kaoru stated haply.  "So you want to train?"  "Yep!"  "Okay.  Let's go back to the castle, so you can change you're clothes."   Battosai said as he started walking back to the castle.  Kaoru ran up to him, "Hey, Battosai can Sano, Misao, and Yahiko come with us?"  "If you want them to."

          When they reached the castle Kaoru ran up to her room to change, while Battosai went to find Sano, Misao and Yahiko.  "Sano!"  Battosai yelled as his voiced echoed throughout the castle. 'Gruah…where can that rooster head be…' "Sano!" he called out again.  "Hey, Himura why are you looking for Sano?"  Battosai looked down at his feet to see Misao smiling back up.  "Kaoru and me are going to the dojo and Kaoru wants you, Sano and Yahiko to come."  "Yay!"  Misao said as she jumped around haply.  "So where are Sano and Yahiko?"  Misao stopped jumping around to think "Ummmm…I think I saw…wait no…hmmm…"  "Well you're no help."  Battosai said as he turned away from her and began walking off.  "Himura!!"  Misao yelled running after him. 

          Battosai went to Kaoru's room with Misao following him.  "Kaoru." He said as he knocked on the door.  Kaoru opened the door with a smile on her face, "I'm ready!"  "Good! Now have you seen Sano and Yahiko?"   "Ummm…yeah I think I saw them outside through the window."  "Then lets go.  Did you get you're bokken?"  "Yep." Kaoru said waving her bokken.  Outside they found Sano and Yahiko, and then they all made their way to the dojo.

          At the dojo they went inside, "You mean we came all this way just to watch ugly train?" Yahiko asked Battosai.  "I'm not ugly Yahiko-Chan!"   "I'm not little! Ugly!"  "Stop calling me ugly!!!!" Kaoru yelled as she brought her bokken down on Yahiko.  Yahiko closed his eyes waiting for it to connect with him, but when it didn't he opened his eyes to see that Battosai had grabbed her bokken.   "Now, now Kaoru that's no way for a lady to act."  "Battosai, what lady?" Yahiko asked.  "Grrrr…Yahiko-Chan!"  Kaoru yelled.  "You know Jou-Chan, Battosai is right you're not very lady like." When Sano said this Battosai let go of Kaoru's bokken.  Kaoru then ran towards Sano and swung the bokken sending him fly against the opposite wall.  "Damn it Jou-Chan that hurt."  "Ha-ha that's what you get Sano!"  Misao yelled.  "Shut-up weasel no one is talking to you!"  Misao's eyes narrowed "Weasel?!?! Gruah!  Kencho-Kick!" Misao yelled as she jumped in the air, kicking Sano.  "Ha-ha!" she laughed.  Sano looked at her "What was that?  You're a feather duster you can't do much damage you know."  "Rooster head!" Misao yelled.

         As Kaoru and Yahiko argued and Misao and Sano argued Battosai stood in the middle of it all.  Frustration soon set in "Will Ya'll all just shut the hell up!!" Battosai yelled.  Everyone went quite and looked at Battosai dumbfounded.  "Gee Battosai you don't have to yell we're right here." Kaoru spoke up.  Battosai glared at her "Kaoru if you're going to train then do it!"  "I will but I want to train with you."  Battosai looked questionably at her. 

          "I'm no good with wooden swords."  "Aww, Battosai come on. Please."  "Kaoru, I can't I only have one bokken and you're using it." "Use you're katana." Kaoru replied, "You fought me last time with it and I had the bokken then.  So don't say its not fair." "Kaoru…" "Please!"  Kaoru pleaded with him.  Battosai sighed "Fine. But I won't use my katana."  Battosai took his katana from his belt and leaned it against one of the walls of the dojo.  Kaoru took her stance as he turned to face her, "Ready Battosai!"  she yelled.  Battosai mentally laughed, "Yeah."  Kaoru smirked before she began to charge at him.  Seeing what she was about to do Battosai step aside causing her to miss.  Kaoru growled and attacked him again and again he dodged.  "What's wrong Kaoru?  You seem to keep missing me."  he said with a grin upon his face.  "Because you won't stand still." "Well, that's how you play the game, Kaoru."  'Game?…what does he mean by that…he's just trying to mess with my mind…' Kaoru thoughts were interrupted.

          "What are you waiting for Kaoru?"  Kaoru huffed and kept her place.  "If you won't come to me I'll just come to you then." When he said this he vanished. 'he's fast…where is he?'  Kaoru thought as she turned around looking for him.  Kaoru then felt a gush of wind go past her she turned back around to see Battosai twirling a hair band around he's finger.  Kaoru's hair felled over her shoulders and down her back. "Kaoru, didn't I tell you, that you look a lot better with you're hair down."  Kaoru still shocked just nodded. 

          "Hey, Sano why did Battosai do that?" Yahiko asked.  "Shut-up kid and watch."  Sano replied.

          Kaoru came out of the shock and griped her bokken and charged at him.  This time Battosai didn't move and Kaoru was sure this attack would hit connect with him.  But before she knew it and how it happen she was pinned on the floor with Battosai on top of her.  "Battosai." She whispered.  Battosai took her bokken out of hands and threw it behind them.  "So Kaoru are you happy you talked me into training with you?" he whispered so Sano and the others couldn't  hear them.  Kaoru smiled and nodded yes. 

          Battosai then bent down and kissed her softly before standing back up and walking away.  Kaoru still laying on the floor watched him pick up his katana, place it in his belt and leave the dojo.  Sano looked back at Kaoru as she was getting up "You okay Jou-Chan?"  "Yeah, I'm fine." Kaoru said still blushing from the kiss.  She picked up her bokken "I guess it's time to go."  Yahiko and Misao had already ran after Battosai.  "Sano?"  Kaoru asked as the two walked out of the dojo.  "Yeah?"  "Do you think Battosai likes me?"  "Jou-Chan I don't think he likes you. I think he's in love with you."  Kaoru looked down at Sano blushing again, "Really, then why did he just walk off?"  "I'm not for sure about why he did that.  Maybe, he thinks you don't like him the way he like you. And he doesn't want to force you into loving him."  "Oh." Kaoru said sadly.  "Jou-Chan do you love him?"  'Do I love him?…I think I do…I do love him  with all my heart …but what if what Sano says isn't right …what if Battosai doesn't love me?…'  "Well do you?"  "Hai, Sano I do." Kaoru stated with a smile.  "Then tell him."  "But Sano…what if you're not right?"  Sano then looked up at Kaoru with a worry look.
