RUROUNI BATTOUSAI
DISCLAIMER: No, I do not own any Rurouni Kenshin characters, whatsoever, nor do I own Spiderman.
SUMMARY: Himura Kenshin is a geek, a nerd. Kamiya Kaoru is a popular, well-liked person. What people do not know, though, is that Kenshin is the well-known hero of Tokyo, Rurouni Battousai.
A/N: Well, this is Spiderman, Rurouni Kenshin style. I've altered a few things, however. For one, Kenshin will not acquire the strength and other things of a spider, obviously. He will not be bitten by anything to get this strength also. He will have just trained and never told anyone about it. He will not have a family member die also. Hmm…that may be all I'm basically changing. Yeah, yeah, they're like major changes, but I had to fix some things so I could write it better and stuff! Please enjoy!
CHAPTER ONE
"Move out of the way, Himura," someone said. I turned around to find Yukishiro Enishi. He pushed me out of the way, which resulted in me dropping all my books and falling face first to the ground. Of course, I could have dodged his push, but I must never do it. I mustn't ever show anyone of my skill.
As I went to pick up my fallen items, students all around stepped on them. I sighed. Here goes another day of taking forever picking up my items. As I reached for my biology text book, a pale hand picked it up before me and handed it to me. I looked up at the person, finding Kamiya Kaoru smiling softly at me.
"Here. Sorry about Enishi's behavior," she whispered to me. I grabbed my text book from her hand, a small blush forming on my face.
"Come on, Kaoru. Why are you helping the geek?" Enishi said, grabbing Kaoru's arm and dragging her away.
I looked at the pair walking away, well, I looked at Kaoru anyways. She was my neighbor and had helped me at times. I had a full blown crush on her. She was the nicest out of her group, which consisted of the jocks and cheerleaders.
"Hey, Kenshin," I heard behind me. I turned around to find my best and only friend, Sanosuke.
"Hey, Sano," I greeted, a smile on my face.
"I saw you staring at Kamiya. What do you see in the raccoon? Why the face? I'm just kidding. Kamiya is pretty nice," Sanosuke said. I raised an eye brow at him. He laughed.
"Come on, school's out. Hurry, I wanna go out and eat something," he said.
"Yeah. yeah. As soon I put my books away. Oh, I have to stop down at the Tokyo Times. I need to give Saitou my pictures," I told him.
"Can't believe you actually are still a photographer for that paper; Saitou is such a pain in the rear," Sanosuke said.
"Yes, but it pays well enough," I argued. Sanosuke snorted at that.
"Come on then. You'd better be quick, my stomach is begging for food," Sanosuke said. I laughed at him.
……………………
"Nice pictures," Saitou said with his cold voice. Sano and I had reached Tokyo Times and I was giving Saitou recent pictures that I had taken for the paper.
"Thank you, sir," I thanked, bowing slightly.
"Now get out of my sight. I'll be waiting for more pictures of the menace Battousai," Saitou said. Saitou always did hate Battousai, though I have no idea why. I walked out of his office.
I chuckled to myself quietly. If Saitou knew that one of his photographers actually was Battousai, I wonder what he would do; what an irony!
I walked out of the building towards Sano's BMW.
…………………………
"You eat like you have never eaten before or something, Sano," I chuckled. Sano was too busy to answer because he was stuffing his face with the McDonald's Big Mac, large fries, and a super size soda he ordered to wash it all down with. After finishing chewing, and taking a long drink, he started talking.
"Well, school lunch sucks anyways (a/n: yeah, and fast food places are not healthy. Aha ha. Then why put one here? B/c that's all I can think of anything right now)," he answered. Right then, the door opened and in came the jocks and cheerleaders; with Kaoru of course.
I sighed to myself. They seated themselves at the table next to Sano and me.
The jocks talked very loudly and the cheerleaders talked very high-pitched and loudly. I couldn't decipher any voices as Kaoru's, so I assumed that she hadn't spoken yet.
After about five minutes of sitting beside them, Sano and I couldn't stand their mindless chatter any longer. We both silently agreed to leave. As I passed their table, a jock stuck his leg out in front of me.
Because I took such care to not look at any place near their table, I was taken off guard. As soon as I had tripped over the leg, I grabbed the person's arm with both hands. As I fell to my knees, I threw the person onto the floor and he landed with a loud thud.
All was quiet.
"Wow, Kenshin! That was incredible! How did you do that?" Sanosuke exclaimed in awe. I looked at him with a bewildered expression. This was bad. I was not to ever do anything like that with my known identity in public. How did I manage to forget that? I looked back at the table.
"What a freak. Can't believe he did that to Enishi," someone sneered. All the jocks and cheerleaders gave me a frightened look. I locked eyes with Kaoru and her eyes showed disbelief.
I stared at them all with wide eyes; Sano and I quickly left.
……………………………
"How did you do that? Where did you get the strength to do that? I don't see any muscles on your thin frame!" Sanosuke rambled on with extreme excitement and awe.
I shook my head at him.
"Uh…" I began.
"You are going to have to teach me! Man, you taught Enishi a lesson today!" Sanosuke interrupted. I sweat dropped at him. It was so like him to be in awe at these things.
"Well, we're at your apartment," I pointed out.
"Heh. You're right. Come on. I think my dad was gonna visit," Sanosuke said, getting out of his car, and walking towards his apartment. I followed suit, walking as silent as the night itself.
We got to the door of his apartment and he opened the door.
"Hello boys," Sanosuke's father greeted as we stepped inside.
A/N: Don't you wonder who Sano's dad is? Aha ha. And no, it is not Sagara Souzou. I'll give you a HUGE hint: one of Kenshin's most terrible person Kenshin had to fight! If you get it right, I'll give you a BIG pat on the back (somehow):D Actually, nothing bad is going to happen. I just need to finish this chapter because I need to go somewhere like right now! I hope you enjoyed the chapter!
