Okay, I just got this idea and I am posting it. Please tell me if you like it and I will continue. Sort of A/U. Takes place in the Meji Era but has a different story line than in the Anime. K/K ALL THE WAY! Some magic is involved, so if you are some holy person who can't stand magic then don't read. NO FLAMZ LUV YA! PEACE OUTTY!
DISCLAIMER: No I don't own it. I don't own a cent. WHAAAAAAAAAA!
REWINDChapter 1
The Girl Who Can Go Back In Time And The Boy Who Can't Even Handle The Presant
Have you ever wished life was like a maze? That if you made a wrong turn, you could turn around and choose a different path? Then come with me on a journey as I tell you about the one person who could.
Kaoru Kamiya was six years old when she discovered she had a gift. Now, at 19, she has complete control over it. Life was okay; if you don't count having to have the cops follow you secretly to make sure you don't fall into the wrong hands.
There was nothing Kaoru wanted more than to be a normal Japanese woman. She was tired of being looked at as a weapon of mass destruction that, if captured by evil people, could destroy the whole country. The only problem with worry is that the people that study her powers won't try to figure out how to take away the power because the army won't let them.
Kaoru sighed as she was walking down the familiar streets of the Tokyo market. This was just another day. She knew what would happen the entire day because her life was so monotonous. Go to the market, put groceries away, clean a little, practice kendo for a half-an-hour, go see Dr. Gensai for her annual check-up, talk to Sergeant Hajime Saitou about safety, cook, eat, bathe, and go to bed.
She was thinking about dinner when a young boy ran up and grabbed her moneybag.
She shouted, "STOP! THEIF! HE STOLE MY MONEY! HELP!" And with out waiting for a reaction from the crowd, ran after the boy.
"HELP! SOMEONE! HE HAS MY MONEY!" Kaoru yelled frantically, hoping someone would catch him. All of a sudden a flash of red and magenta sped past her and almost knocked her down it was so fast. She stopped and looked around.
A man walked up and tapped her shoulder, "Excuse me miss? Is this yours?"
The man handed Kaoru her moneybag and smiled. He had a long red mane of hair tied back in a ponytail. He was wearing a magenta gi and a white hakama and he had a sword on his side.
"Domo arigaitou! I am Kaoru Kamiya. Assistant manager of the Kamiya Dojo." She said proudly.
"Pleasure to meet you Kamiya-dono. I am Kenshin Himura. A rurouni." Kenshin replied smiling.
"Would you please allow me to buy you a nice lunch for saving my only money, Himura-san? Oh and you can call me Kaoru." She told him kindly.
"Alright, Kaoru-dono. But please allow me to pay my share of the meal." Kenshin insisted.
"No! Nonsense! You saved my money from a pickpocket and helped me out when no one else would of. I will pay for both of us!" Kaoru protested. Kenshin gave in and smiled at the girl. She was much more self-assured than most of the women he had met on his journeys.
"You'll love this place! I am a friend of the owner, Tae." Kaoru explained as they walked into a place that said "THE AKABEKO" on the roof.
The two sat down at a table and placed their orders for the infamous beef stew.
"So, you're a rurouni? That is cool. Where ya staying?" Kaoru asked.
Kenshin blinked but then smiled, "I am not sure yet. I might even have to sleep outside again." Kaoru felt her heart do a flip. 'Maybe I can ask him to stay with me. I would really like someone to talk to.'
"Nonsense! You can stay at my dojo if you'd like. I have plenty of room and, well, no one ever visits. It gets quite lonely there." Kaoru suggested.
Kenshin pondered this for a second and said, "Well, okay. But only if I can earn my keep."
Now Kaoru blinked but laughed, "Deal!" And they shook hands.
