Note: If you've already read this drabble, there's no need to read it again. All that I changed was one scene break at the bottom.
"Battousai"
(Kyoto, 1863)
About thirty minutes had passed since dawn. Himura Kenshin had been awake for as long. He was currently helping the Kohagi inn's staff to prepare breakfast, as he'd actually managed to get a full night's sleep for once. "Himura-chan, mind telling me what you are thinking about?" Okami asked, breaking the silence.
"Huh?"
"You seemed to be deep in thought, and I was wondering what about."
"Oh, umm... I was just wondering about something. Okami-san, do you think that my family would be proud of who…of what I am now?"
She wrapped an arm around the boy's shoulders in a somewhat motherly manner. "I'm sure they would. And anyway, there's no way to change the past now. What's done is done, and though I don't approve of the job Katsura has given a boy your age, there's no way to change the past. I wouldn't worry about it if I were you."
"You're right. Thanks, Okami-san."

End "Battousai"
MS's notes
The scene break at the end reads "Hitokiri Battousai". I'm extremely greatful to Viz for having the characters' name kanji in their profiles at the beginning of each volume! XD 'Course, they only have profiles for the more important characters, but still...
In the last chapter, I forgot to mention the influences behind it. The first drabble was inspired by Night-Mare-Chan's "Shoukaittou: Song of the Sword." This one, on the other hand, was based on the scenes of interaction between Kenshin and Okami in Conspirator's "Descent into Madness." Next chapter: Kaoru-chan. Coming soon to a near you. XD
