Here's the chapter yall have been waiting for!
------------------
Kaoru stood beside the casket, Black leather covered her lithe body, a black trenchcoat hung like a cape, surrounding her in it's cool warmth.
He had given it to her before he left, and now he was dead.
"Who did this?" she asked the cold body as he lay, pale and made-up in the fancy box.
Someone came up behind her and she turned sharply, her fingers going to the trigger of the spring loaded daggar in her sleeve.
"Woah, careful Kamiya." Okinawa said, pushig her hand down gently. "He doesn't look right smiling." He commented as he looked down on the body of their colleague.
"I saw him smile, once." Kaoru said, remembering their first and only night together.
He had taken her in a Transport ship on the way to Ishvar Red. They had been posted on lookout for smugglers and had realized that they had been posted on the wrong ship. They had had wine and teriaki and then...
But he was gone now. and they would never have the chance to try.
"I will find whoever did this. I promise." Kaoru whispered, then laid a hand on Misao's head. Misao had had a crush on the man in the casket, and she was crushed.
"He died the way he lived." Came a comment from somewhere across the room. She glanced to see Enishi Higkoro standing with some of the junior officers.
She glared and walked out into the rain.

"Well, miss Kamiya, you have come out of hiding now. Let's see where you take us." He said, running slim fingers through his thick mass of black hair.
"Yo, Eric, what's that?" Ed asked, looking at the personal file in his hand.
"That, my friend, is our meal ticket." He said, walking out into the rain.
he raced to catch up with the raven haired assasin, "Miss Kamiya? I'm from the Interplanetary Tribune, Would you like to make a statement on Shinomori's murder?" He asked her, grabbing her arm.
"No comment." She said, then she stopped when she felt something hard and metallic against her side.
"Please, come with us, Miss Kamiya, we don't want you to get all banged up now do we?" he said, walking her into the alley.
"Is this the way you take your prisoners? Hm. Interesting. Ganging up on defenceless women with a gun. That's old fashioned." She said, shrugging when he pressed the pistol harder into her side.
She found that it would bruise, and that angered her.
"Come on, Kamiya, you're our meal ticket." The shorter of the two was a full head taller than her, so they probably thought they had the advantage.
"Go back to whatever you oozed out of, i have a killer to find." She told them, walking toward the bigger one. "Before you piss me off." She said, turning.
She began to walk down the alley when a bullet embedded itself deep into the concrete just before her foot.
"You must have bad aim." She said over her shoulder.
"If you take another step, i won't miss." The smaler of the two said, pointing the .22 at her.
"you are starting to annoy me." she said pressing the release for the blade in her left sleeve.
She gripped the katana tightly as she raced forward and sliced the man's hand off, then his head. She tackled the other one and held him down with her sword.
he screamed in horror. She smiled slowly, dangerously, and carved her sign into his chest. "You are mine. I can kill you at any time i want to, do not test me." she hissed in his ear before she left him, bleeding on the mud and filth in the alley.

Kenshin looked on in awe as the girl killed one hunter and wounded another. Her fighting tecnique was remarkable, fast as lightning.
He shrunk back into the shadows and walked back toward the way-station where he could intercept his target.
