-Pervious on Kaoru and the Battosai
As he walked by the front door he stopped and looked at a piece of paper pin to it. "What's this?" He said taking the note in his hands and reading it. His violet eyes turned into a cold amber, as he let go of the paper that floated to the floor. "Damn it."
Kaoru and the Battosai
Chapter 30
Enter Hiko
Battosai rushed outside and began to run off into the woods. 'Where would Saito have taken Kaoru…' Battosai thought as he came to a stop in the woods. Battosai looked around, but could not find a trace of Kaoru and Saito. 'Would he have taken her back to the village?…' asking himself.
"Who or what are you looking for…baka deshi?" 'That voice…' Battosai thought as he turned his head and glared at the owner of the voice, sitting by a tree, drinking some sake. "Don't look at me like that." The voice said standing up and walking over to Battosai. "Master, why are you here?" Battosai said. "Never mind that, you haven't answered my question." Hiko replied. Battosai sighed, looking down at the ground, "I'm looking for someone."
Hiko looked down at Battosai, then turned around and began to walk away. Battosai's head shot up as he watched him walk away, "Master!?!" "Are you coming, baka deshi?" Hiko said without stopping. 'Does he know where Saito took Kaoru?…' Battosai thought before quickly running to catch up with Hiko.
After some time of walking, Hiko came to a stop. He turned his head to see Battosai some ways behind him, "Can you walk any slower, baka deshi!" Hiko yelled at him. Battosai then used his god like speed to get next to Hiko. "Finally," Hiko said, "baka." He added. "Why did you stop, Master?" "Because, we're here." 'He does know.…' Battosai thought with a smile. "What are you smiling about?" Battosai quickly stopped smiling "Nothing." He replied.
"Well what are you waiting for now?" Hiko asked Battosai, "You want to save that girl." Battosai nodded. "Then go." Hiko said grabbing Battosai arm and slinging him into the bushes in front of them. Battosai went though the bushes and caught his balance, he looked around till he saw Saito. Hiko came out right after him and starred at Saito.
"Where's Kaoru?" Battosai asked him demanding a response. "You shouldn't worry about the tanuki, you should be worried about your own well being." Saito spoke as he took a puff of his cigarette. "I said where is Kaoru!?" Battosai said. "If you must know." Saito said. Saito then moved his head to the left, causing Battosai to look "Kaoru!" he yelled when he saw her kneeling down on the ground, her hands tied behind her and her mouth gagged.
"Why did you take her, Saito?" "The curse." Saito said a he flicked his cigarette to the ground. Battosai's eyes widened, then narrowed in anger. Kaoru looked up at Saito, 'Curse' she thought to herself. 'What do I have to do with the curse?…' Saito smiled when he saw Battosai's anger. "If I didn't take her then the two of you would have admitted you're love for each other and that would break the spell. Causing the demon that was put upon you to leave and you would go back to how you where before the curse. Am I right?" Saito said. Kaoru looked toward Battosai 'So the spell can only be broken by falling in love…' Battosai stayed quite and continued to stare at Saito.
"So you see, Battosai, I want to fight you at your strongest." Saito said. "So be it then." Battosai said before disappearing. Saito stood still, as he could feel Battosai coming closer to him. Battosai appeared at he right, katana unsheathed, preparing to strike. But was blocked when Saito quickly drew his katana out. They pushed back each other and came back for another attack.
Kaoru watched them clashed katanas with each other, 'This is just like the last time they fought…I just hope it doesn't end the same …Battosai please win…So that I can tell you how much I love you…' Kaoru thought as a tear trickled down her check. "Do you have faith in my baka deshi?" Kaoru looked up to see a tall, muscle man standing next to her. He bent down and untied Kaoru's hands and took the gag from her mouth. "Arigatou." Hiko smirked, "Do you have faith in him?" Kaoru nodded and turned her head back to the fight.
Again their katanas clashed and they pushed back. Saito took his Gatotsu stance. "Gatotsu. You did this before it won't work again." Battosai spoke with a cold voice. Saito ready his stance, and the charged toward Battosai. Battosai stood still and watch him come closer and closer. Right when Saito thrust his katana at Battosai, he dodged it easily. Making Saito continue forward, Battosai elbowed him in the back of the neck. Saito stumbled, but caught his balance, turned and returned himself in his Gatotsu stance. "I told you already it won't work."
Again and again Saito attacked Battosai with the Gatotsu and again and again Battosai dodged this attack. "Don't you have anything else!" Battosai yelled as he charged Saito, right before reaching him he jumped into the air and came down yelling "Hiten Mitsurugi-Ryu- Ryutsuisen,"
That's all for now. Sorry for not doing the review Thanks, or making this chapter longer but I'm really tired today. I thought by leaving it at a cliffy it would make it easier to start the next chapter a lot sooner than normal, "hopefully" Thanks to all those who reviewed. Much appreciation to ya'll!
Please review.
