Why
Chapter 2
Shinta to Kenshin
(THE NEXT EVENING)
"A boy? No I haven't seen any boys around here with that description, heck not even a cat has passed by" said a man in his house; he was talking to a tall and mysterious stranger in front of him with long black hair and a long white cape that made him look strangely handsome.
"Thank you, and good evening" the tall man said bowing towards the man in the house and the man (in the house) doing the same.
"Likewise" said the man in the house and closed the door and resumed to do whatever it was that he wasdoing.
The tall man started towards the forest, it wasn't far, so he wouldn't have to waste his precious sake but some times he would take a sip or two or three maybe four. What the hell? This is Hiko were talking about he wouldn't take 1,2,3, or 4 sips of sake. He would gulp most of it and like magic there would still be more left.
(Inside of the strange mans brain or mind)
'The boy probably committed suicide right on the spot. Oh well the least I can do is bury him along with the rest of the bodies' The tall man (while he was thinking about what to do when he got to the spot were he left the boy) was walking into the forest, and he was also still holding the bottle of sake in his left hand, kind of hidden because of his big white cape.
When he got to the spot where he left the boy, the sight that was right in front of him was beyond him.
Gasp
Right there where there used to be bodies of dead people were now crosses that came out of the ground all over the area and it gave the impression of a cemetery and right at the end sure enough was the young boy, he was standing right in front of three big rocks. The big man started walking towards the boy. Got there and was now standing right behind him again for the second time.
"You dug graves for your family and for the thieves"
"They weren't my family, I was sold to them when my family died, they were slave traders but last night they were only victims"
"And these three rocks?"
"Sakura, Akane, and Nabiki. I just meet them today, but they treated me like I was their own. I wanted their graves to look pretty, but all I could find were these three ugly rocks. I wish I had flowers for them" the boy said with a very sad expression on his face.
The tall man started to move, but he was not leaving, he pulled out his bottle of sake and opened it, and let the sake fallon all three rocks.
"No one should leave this world without tasting the good taste of sake, this is my tribute to them" said the man closing his eyes and opening them again, and putting the lid of the sake bottle back on tight.
"Thank you, um, what's your name?" Asked the boy looking up at the tall man.
"Hiko Saijuro, and remember it becauseit is the name of your new master. What is your name?"
"Shinta"
"To soft a name, from today forth your name shall by Kenshin."
"Ken-Shin" Shinta repeated looking up at his new master, and then looking at the sunset.
"Consider yourself lucky Kenshin." Hiko said looking at the sunset. 'I have found myself a pupil'

My Thanks To You Guys!
Saitouu Ryuuji:I know I should proofread, but I get very happy when I make a new story, and I just don't check, and when I do, I don't see it, I'm not very good in grammer, or anything that has to do with writing stories. And as for that sentence, that gives me a question... have you seen Samuray X directors cut? And you know what, that is what I thought he would do, the violent accion, but he didn't; he slowly put down her head. It would be a good idea to make my sis proofread to see if she sees anything. And no need to worry, I didn't take it as a flame, I learn from what you guys say! I actually like it when reviewers tell me how bad my errors are! Oh and one more thing... THANKS FOR REVIEWING!
