Chapter 2
"He! He! He!" came a voice from just outside the door. Yahiko knew what was coming that night and was waiting for Kenshin to get home. "Why you little punk!" Kaoru was already halfway to the door when Yahiko let out an "Uh-oh" but right after there was a loud smack! "I don't know why Kenshin would want to marry an ugly girl anyways.""Who are you calling ugly you little punk!" That was it for Kenshin, and he decided to try to intervene with the two brawlers. As he was walking up to them he said "Come on you two this needs to" smack! The next thing to come out of his mouth was "Oro!""Oh! Sorry Kenshin it was in the heat of the moment, I swear. Oh, and by the way, yes!" Kenshin's face turned bright red and Yahiko started to tease Kenshin about that.
By the time all the commotion settled down, Sanosuke had just walked into the door. "I always have to miss the fun stuff, don't I. By the way Kenshin, your face is redder than a cherry. What's that all about.""I just asked Kaoru to marry me and she said yes, but Yahiko was behind the door and Kaoru figured out that he was spying on us, so she went out and fought with him, as usual.""So, you two lovebirds are finally hooking up. Should've figured that it was going to happen soon. So did you get her a ring of some sort?""Nope, I got her a sapphire necklace that I had to work for today in Edo."
Just then, the door opened, "So, you have softened your heart and have decided to marry? How pathetic can the Battosai become?" Aoshi stepped in and drew his sword. "Arise and prepare to die." Aoshi was still upset about his loss to Kenshin at Kanryu's mansion and still was crazed to become the best. "I will not fight you Aoshi, not tonight, atleast. I am having a happy moment and you are not going to ruin it. So leave, now, or suffer the consequences!" "I think that I will stay and you will be the one suffering the consequences!" Kenshin got that look in his eye again, the true look of the Hitokiri Battosai the Manslayer. It was the same look from when he had fought Jin-e in order to save Kaoru. "You will now suffer the consequences Aoshi!" He had his voice back to. The same one from when he fought Jin-e. Sanosuke knew that he was serious and decided to back off from this one because Kenshin might kill Aoshi like he almost killed Jin-e. Kenshin picked up his sword and got into his stance.
